Cancun-December-2025

We recently booked a family parasailing package in Cancun, and unfortunately, our experience was quite disappointing. There was a lack of communication about where we needed to go, and upon arrival, there were no signs or directions to guide us to the crew. We ended up having to search for them ourselves. We arrived at around 9:20 AM, expecting to depart by 10:00 AM, but we didn't actually leave until about 10:20 AM. During that time, we had to repeatedly ask for updates, and there was no clear guidance or information provided. This lack of organization really affected our overall experience. We hope the company can improve their communication and organization so future guests have a smoother and more enjoyable experience.

Awesome Experience - Terrible booking service.

Be sure to confirm where you are to be long before your date because they give mixed addresses! We went to the address on the reservation just to be sent to another area in Cancun and those people sent us back. Come to find out, our reservation was not entered until after I called. Cost us three hours and travel money to get things straightened out. Also, you are charged $20 extra per person to opt for the lagoon parasail experience that they don’t tell you about until the day before the event!

Operator response

Super fun

It's a 45 min wait from your booked time to actually leaving the beach. The pics they offer are $50 USD! For real maybe try $25-ish and you'd most likely sell a LOT more

This excursion was exactly what I expected! The staff were very attentive and I felt very comfortable. The views were phenomenal. Crystal blue waters.

We spent more time waiting than soaring. Buyer beware!

Our experience was awesome for 10 minutes, as we soared above beautiful Cancun - we expected more! More time as promised but less time being uncomfortably shuttled on seadogs, to wait while others rode - and raised. Their ascensions were exceeded 15 minutes - we expected the same. Operator stated we had to keep schedule - it is what it is! Viator didn’t think a refund was warranted but a redo certainly is.

Unhappy experience

They were unprofessional. We were right on time only to be told that they were running late 45 minutes late! Did not inform us. It was extremely hot and humid. The boat in which we went for the para sailing had a rude person operating it. We were 5 people. When asked if the 5th person could fly with her friend, flatly refused.

Operator response

Thank you for your comments, we will investigate this issue and take immediate action, thanks for bringing this to our attention, we apologize for the inconvenience this might cause .
