Maya Adrenaline: ATV, Cenote Swim & 1km Zipline Day Trip from Tulum
A five-hour action loop from Tulum: a Mayan ceremony, an underground cenote swim, a 4m rappel, a 1km zipline and an ATV circuit through jungle trails. Expect safety briefings, an environmental fee, and a mix of calm swims and high-speed bursts.
