Mayan Jungle ATV, Zipline & Cenote Adventure from Cancun
A half-day of high-energy Mayan jungle: shared ATVs tear through forest tracks, ziplines give you a hawk’s-eye view of the canopy, and a crystalline cenote swim cools you off before a chicken fajitas lunch. Practical for travelers with hotel pickup and bilingual guides.
The Experience
Before You Go
Stay hydrated
Heat and dust add up—bring at least 1–1.5 L of water and drink before the ATV portion starts.
Wear closed-toe shoes
ATV terrain includes roots and cobbles—sturdy trainers or hiking shoes protect your feet.
Lock valuables
Bring a waterproof pouch for phones and leave non-essentials on the van during activities to avoid damage or loss.
Mind the weight and health limits
Drivers must be 16+ and max weight is about 300 lb; those with heart or spinal issues should avoid the ATVs and ziplines.
Local Knowledge
Hidden Gems
- •Look for shaded lookout racks near the zipline platforms for quiet jungle views after the rush
- •Edge pools beside the cenote often host small fish and offer calmer water for shallow wading
Wildlife
- •Great kiskadee (bird)
- •Mexican tree frog
Conservation Note
Respect signage at the cenote—no sunscreen or insect repellent in the water to protect aquatic life; operators often enforce rinse stations to limit contamination.
Cenotes were culturally significant to the Maya as sources of freshwater and ritual sites; the Yucatán’s karst landscape made these pools central to settlement patterns.
