Worth the visit. Only about 5USD a person. Not very big. You can do the whole area in about a half an hour. There's not much shade, and it's very hot. Bring sunscreen and water.Full review by 894abigalel

El Rey is a fine local attraction, but is really nothing like as impressive as Chichen Itza. It's much closer, much cheaper, not crowded, much, much smaller and has less impressive ruins. I can't speak for the museum as I didn't visit it.
I can't get directions to this location. It is not coming up on MapQuest or any navigation system. Does anyone know the correct address or how to get there from the hotel zone?
A:
Any of the free busses in the Hotel zone will take you here; Traveling South get off after the Cancun sign Traveling north get off the stop after the Grand Oasis Sens hotel
