Riviera Maya Jungle Combo: ATV, Ziplines, Horseback & Cenote Adventure
Four activities, one jungle: race through canopy on ziplines, tear along muddy ATV tracks, trot quiet trails on horseback and cool off in a cenote. This five-hour combo in the Riviera Maya pairs adrenaline with local geology and Mayan-flavored refreshment.
The Experience
Before You Go
Bring closed-toe shoes
ATV and horseback sections require sturdy shoes to protect feet from mud, debris and stirrups.
Wear biodegradable sunscreen
Cenote swim and prolonged sun exposure make reef-safe sunscreen and a hat useful; parks request biodegradable products.
Hydrate before departure
Tropical conditions and adrenaline activities dehydrate quickly—start hydrated and refill at provided water stops.
Secure valuables
Phones and loose items are usually forbidden during activities—use lockers or official photo services.
Local Knowledge
Hidden Gems

Conservation Note
Stick to marked trails, use biodegradable products, and respect cenote rules—these networks are fragile aquifers that require low-impact visitation.
The Maya managed these landscapes around cenotes as freshwater hubs and ritual sites; many local routes follow paths used for centuries.
