Cancun ATV Jungle Adventure: Ziplines, Cenote Swim & Tequila Tasting
A half-day blast through the Yucatán jungle combining a 30-minute ATV ride, a 3-line zipline circuit, a swim in a natural cenote and a tequila tasting at a colonial hacienda. Expect mud, canopy speed and clear freshwater in one busy, well-run experience.
The Experience
Before You Go
Wear closed-toe shoes
Sturdy sneakers or light hiking shoes protect your feet during the ATV section and when walking uneven cenote edges.
Bring a waterproof phone case or leave devices behind
Cameras and phones are often restricted during active elements—secure them in a waterproof case or locker to avoid damage.
Hydrate and eat lightly beforehand
Humidity and adrenaline can dehydrate quickly; drink water before the tour and avoid heavy meals right before the ATV ride.
Listen to the safety briefing
Guides will cover driving rules, weight/height limits for ziplines, and how to enter the cenote safely—following them reduces risk and speeds the group along.

Common Questions
How long is the ATV portion?
The ATV segment lasts about 30 minutes along muddy and bumpy jungle trails designed for fun rather than long-distance travel.

Minimum age to participate in activities is 4 (with adult). Drivers must be 16+ accompanied by an adult or 18+ to drive solo; ziplines have a maximum weight around 120 kg (265 lb).
Is swimming in the cenote supervised?
Yes—guides supervise cenote access and provide instructions for safe entry and exit; lifeguards may not always be present, so follow staff guidance closely.
Is transportation included?
Round-trip transportation from most Cancún-area hotels is typically included, though pickup time excludes travel delays, so allow extra time for traffic.
