Review

When I first arrived I was nervous (and also very tired) because this was my first experience outside the country I live in as an independent traveler. When I first arrived to the hostel I immediately like it. I met the owner 'Sander' who is such a cool guy some of the staff who made me feel very welcome and some of the residents. My first night there despite being very tired I was invited to a meal in the hostel with other residents. I couldnt believe how cool these people were and from all over the world I really enjoyed my first night there and knew I would be fine. It took me a few days to adjust to being an independent traveller but any 'butterfiles' soon disappeared. Sander came with me on my first excursion which I really appreciated, he helped me feel comfortable. I enjoyed the area I was in and the people I was with. Thanks to the Hostel I really enjoyed a special addition to the holiday... the 'Experimental Mayan Theatre' it was brilliant.
Moving onto the excursions I enjoyed them all immensely, the sky dive in particular was the highlight. Sander joined me again on the 'Flyboarding' and I not only appreciated his company but his taking of photos and videos which have now made the Xtreme Gap Website. The fact that that was the case made me feel like an appreciated customer.
At times I wanted to eat out at a restaurant however the food in the hostel was fantastic so I didn't need to really even though I did on two occasions.
I enjoyed the Sian K'aan trip in particular the traditional Mayan Chicken which was the best meal I've had in a long time. The guide on the Sian K'aan trips' knowledge was vast and answered any questions we may present with expert detail.
The cenote I visited was brilliant along with the cliff diving and snorkeling, the guides really took care of you and ensured you enjoyed all they had to offer. I enjoyed the zip lining and the cliff diving it was a lot of fun and made me feel like a kid again.

Overall my experience in Playa Del Carmen was definitely one to remember and I would highly recommend this trip to anybody. The staff at the hostel are great, the hostel itself is brilliant, the area is gorgeous and the excursions on offer are invigorating, rejuvenating and overall fantastic. My time there was just incredible, for anybody who likes traveling independently, loves meeting new people and last but certainly not least is an 'adrenaline junkie', choose this trip.
If you have more experience diving then you almost have to go there to explore Cotsumel, but please stick with Xtreme Gap and do not purchase any of the excursions off local sellers. Sander knows the area very well and you can trust his advice along with the owner of Xtreme Gap itself.

For me Xtreme Gap is an incrediiiible website. I am using it again without impedance for a group tour trip.

Would you recommend this program?
Yes, I would
