Riviera Maya Zipline, ATV & Cenote Adventure from Cancún
Combine muddy ATV runs, a crystal cenote swim and a zipline over jungle canopy in a single day from Cancún. This guided Riviera Maya circuit pairs adrenaline with easy access to Mayan geological and cultural history.
The Experience
Before You Go
Closed-toe shoes for the ATV
Wear sturdy sneakers or hiking shoes that can get muddy and protect your toes while riding.
Biodegradable sunscreen only
Use reef- and cenote-safe sunscreen and rinse before entering the water to protect fragile cave ecosystems.
Hydrate before and during
Bring a refillable bottle; humid heat and exertion from ATVs and ziplines can dehydrate you quickly.
Mind the weight and age limits
Drivers must meet minimum ages and a maximum weight (about 130 kg/286 lb) applies — confirm before booking.
