BEST Progreso Excursions for CRUISE PASSENGERS (Must Watch 2025!!!)

Key Moments
Editorial Summary
The creators document a day trip from Progreso, Mexico, featuring an excursion that combines ATV riding, swimming in an underground cenote, and a traditional Mayan lunch. After a van ride to the destination, the group splits into two segments to manage the number of available ATVs. The creators participate in the group that swims first, describing the underground cenote as having clear water with stalactites and a temperature between 75 and 80 degrees. They follow the swim with a bumpy, forty-five minute ATV ride through the jungle. The excursion concludes with an authentic Mayan lunch consisting of handmade corn tortillas, tacos, and empanadas. Additionally, the group visits a historical site to observe a demonstration of traditional rope making using local wood. The creators conclude their day by returning to the ship to enjoy the sunset, visiting the flip flop bar, and dining at the buffet, which they praise for its flavor and variety.

Creator's Key Takeaways
this is a great experience so there's other excursions that have more Cotes but we chose this one because of the ATV and the Cenote and it's less of a drive than some of the others
that was super freaking cool I mean I've done cenotes before but never underground cenotes that was awesome
my one tip would be that if you're going to do this excursion ask to do the ATVs first and the Cenote second
the food has surprisingly been very delicious this whole trip I've enjoyed the food even buffet food
