The Experience

Before You Go

Bring ID for driving

ATV drivers must be 18+ and show identification — keep it accessible during pickup and check-in.

Wear closed-toe shoes

Sturdy sneakers or hiking shoes protect feet on rough tracks and during ATV transfers.

Protect electronics

Use a small waterproof pouch for your phone — ziplines and cenote water are not forgiving.

Hydrate early

Drink water before arrival; the tour includes snacks but limited drinking stops mid-activity.

Local Knowledge

Hidden Gems

  • Small roadside stands selling fresh coconut water near Ruta de los Cenotes
  • Short walking paths to observation platforms for quiet canopy views away from main circuits

Wildlife

  • Great-tailed grackle
  • Green iguana

Conservation Note

The cenote and surrounding jungle are sensitive to runoff and sunscreen chemicals—operators often ask visitors to use biodegradable products and avoid single-use plastics.

Cenotes are natural sinkholes formed when collapsed limestone exposes the groundwater below; they were freshwater sources and sacred sites for the Maya.
