Riviera Maya Cenote, Zipline & ATV Combo: 3-in-1 Jungle Adventure
Run through the jungle canopy on ziplines, tackle narrow trails on a shared ATV, then cool off in a sacred cenote. This 3-in-1 Riviera Maya combo packs thrills and a local cultural touch into a four-hour outing.
The Experience
Before You Go
Wear closed-toe shoes
ATV sections are rough and require stable footwear—no sandals or flip-flops.
Use biodegradable sunscreen
Regular sunscreen contaminates cenote ecosystems—apply reef-safe or biodegradable formulations.
Bring a swimsuit and towel
Swim time in the cenote is part of the itinerary; bring a quick-dry towel and spare clothes.
Carry small cash
Vendors and gratuities are cash-preferred; credit cards may not be accepted on-site.

Conservation Note
Operators encourage biodegradable products and limits on visitor numbers to protect water quality and cave formations; follow all no-diving rules to preserve fragile underwater passages.
Cenotes were central to Maya life—sources of freshwater and sites for ritual offerings; the Route of the Cenotes marks dozens of these sinkholes across the Riviera Maya.
