Cancun Jungle ATV, Zipline & Cenote Swim — Half-Day Adventure
Race ATVs through lowland jungle, clip into ziplines that skim the canopy and cool off in a limestone cenote on this organized half-day from Cancun. It’s a high-energy mix of driving, flying and swimming with hotel pickup and certified guides.
The Experience
Before You Go
Bring biodegradable sunscreen
Cenotes are sensitive freshwater ecosystems—use reef-safe or biodegradable sunscreen to avoid contaminating the water,
Wear sturdy, closed-toe shoes
ATV trails are dusty and uneven; shoes with grip protect toes and improve control on the throttle.
Secure valuables
Ziplines and ATVs can jostle phones and cameras—use a secure case or leave expensive items on the shuttle.
Time your trip for morning
Morning departures are cooler, often less busy, and offer clearer water in the cenote for swimming and photos.

Conservation Note
