Cancun Adventure Tour: Ziplines, ATVs & Cenote Swim with Lunch
A five-hour half-day adventure in the Yucatán jungle: fly ziplines, tackle rocky ATV trails, and cool off in a limestone cenote, all with hotel pickup and a hearty lunch. Practical, social, and high-energy — ideal for travelers who want variety in one outing.
The Experience
Before You Go
Bring closed-toe shoes
Ziplines and ATVs require sturdy footwear — sneakers or hiking shoes protect your feet and improve control on trails.
Use biodegradable sunscreen
Apply reef-safe sunscreen before the cenote swim; many operators ask you to avoid lotions in the water to protect the formation.
Carry ID and medical info
Tours check age/weight and may require ID for pickup — bring any allergy or medication info for guides.
Hydrate early and often
Start hydrating before pickup; jungle heat and physical activity increase your need for water during the five-hour tour.

Conservation Note
Operators encourage no-sunscreen swims in cenotes and limit ATV routes to designated tracks to reduce erosion and protect fragile cave systems.
Cenotes are openings to the Yucatán’s limestone aquifer and held central importance to ancient Maya as freshwater sources and ceremonial sites.
