Riviera Maya ATV, Cenote & Zipline Adventure — Full-Day Jungle Combo

The Experience
Before You Go
Hydrate before you start
Bring at least 1–2 liters of water and sip regularly—heat and humidity accelerate dehydration on ATVs and between activities.
Wear closed-toe shoes
ATV sections use uneven dirt and brush; sturdy trainers protect feet and improve vehicle control.
Use reef-safe sunscreen
Apply biodegradable sunscreen before snorkeling to protect coral and follow guides' rules about rinsing.
Follow weight and age rules
Zipline max weight is 135 kg (300 lb); drivers must meet minimum age requirements—confirm at booking.
