Cancun Adventure Tour: Ziplines, ATVs & Cenote Swim in the Mayan Jungle
Combine ziplines, jungle ATV trails and a swim in an underground cenote on a single action-packed day near Cancun. This guided tour mixes adrenaline with local flavors — fajitas for lunch and a tequila tasting to top off the experience.
The Experience
Before You Go
Bring closed-toe shoes
ATVs and some zipline platforms require sturdy footwear — closed-toe shoes protect toes and improve control on uneven trails.
Hydrate before and during the tour
Tropical heat and physical activity make a 1–2 L refillable water bottle essential; guides often schedule water breaks.
Know weight and age limits
Ziplines and ATVs have operator-imposed limits and age rules—confirm these at booking to avoid last-minute restrictions.
Protect the cenote
Use biodegradable sunscreen and avoid single-use plastics in and around cenotes to reduce contamination of fragile groundwater.
Local Knowledge
Hidden Gems
- •Walk the hanging bridges slowly at dawn—bird activity peaks then and the light through the canopy is clean.
- •Ask guides about nearby small cenotes used mainly by locals for a quieter swim away from the main site.
Wildlife
- •Howler monkeys
- •Green iguanas
Conservation Note
Cenote aquifers are fragile—use biodegradable products, follow guide instructions, and avoid disturbing cave formations to protect water quality and local ecosystems.
Cenotes were vital freshwater sources for the ancient Maya and featured in their cosmology; many sites sit on collapsed limestone cave systems formed over tens of thousands of years.
