Playa del Carmen Jungle Combo: ATV, Zipline, Horseback and Cenote Adventure
Four distinct jungle experiences—ATV trails, horseback tracks, canopy ziplines and a cenote swim—packed into one guided half-day from Playa del Carmen. Ideal for travelers who want variety, safety equipment provided, and a taste of the Yucatán’s karst landscape.
The Experience
Before You Go
Bring a secure GoPro setup
Phones and loose cameras are not allowed on ATVs or ziplines; a chest or helmet-mounted GoPro strap is accepted for photos and video.
Observe weight and age limits
Drivers must be 16+ to operate ATVs; some activities have a maximum weight of 264 lb—confirm with the operator before booking.
Hydrate and protect from sun
Bring water, a hat for transfer time and reef-safe sunscreen; the jungle canopy gives shade but open sections and cenote areas can be bright and hot.

Sturdy shoes protect feet on ATVs, during horseback mounting and on uneven cenote platforms—flip-flops are not suitable.
