Mayan Jungle Rush: ATV, Ziplines & Cenote Swim from Cancun
A compact, four-hour combo that pairs a jungle zipline circuit and hanging bridges with an off-road ATV loop and a refreshing cenote swim. Ideal for travelers seeking high-energy adventure with local flavors—cochinita tacos and a tequila tasting round out the day.
The Experience
Before You Go
Wear closed-toe shoes
Closed, grippy shoes are required for both ziplines and ATVs; sandals aren’t allowed and will limit participation.
Mind the weight and health limits
Ziplines have a 286 lb (130 kg) limit and the tour isn’t recommended for people with serious heart, spinal issues, or pregnant travelers.
Hydrate before and after
Tropical humidity accelerates dehydration—drink water before pickup and use the provided water during breaks.
Bring swim and a change of clothes
The cenote swim can be chilly out of the cave; quick-dry swimwear and a small towel make the return trip more comfortable.

Cenotes were crucial to Maya life and ritual — many on the Cenote Route supplied freshwater and appear in archaeological records as sacred sites.
