"Visited the Louis Tussauds Wax Museum today.
Have to say, this was great value for money for a family of 2 adults and 1 child. It was less than £40 with the Ripleys Believe it or not tour also thrown in.
Some great Waxworks, especially the Horror section, with the eyes looking so real, it made you think they were going to jump on you.
I would reccomend visiting this place if you are in the Cancun area and with kids."
Mr T
"Bit of fun, more exhibits than we expected, some wax works were great but others were questionable. We had a great time taking selfies and for the cheap entry price why not visit!"
Ben Dawson
"I'll post some pictures and let you decide is this is actually a Wax Museum. It's a few rooms with some characters that, to me, didn't look like the personalities and were not made from wax. Almost $20 usd per person to get it, and they still want to sell you some pictures."
