ATV & Zipline Adventure in Tulum Jungle — Cavern Swim, Jungle Ride & Seven Ziplines
Combine a cavern swim, an off-road ATV ride and seven ziplines above the Tulum canopy in a single day. This Riviera Maya combo offers adrenaline bursts with a cultural and geological backdrop—the Yucatán’s limestone caverns and tropical jungle.
The Experience
Before You Go
Bring biodegradable sunscreen
The cavern and cenote waters are sensitive—use reef-safe sunscreen to protect aquatic life and avoid skin irritation after swimming.
Wear sturdy closed-toe shoes
ATV tracks can be muddy and rocky; closed-toe shoes with good tread improve control and protection.
Secure loose items
On ziplines and ATVs, loose phones, hats, and jewelry can be lost—use pockets or secure straps.
Hydrate before and after
Tropical heat and active sections demand regular water intake; bring a refillable bottle to stay energized.
