Riviera Maya Jungle Combo: ATVs, Ziplines & Cenote Swim

The Experience
Before You Go
Closed-toe shoes only
Wear sturdy closed-toe shoes you don’t mind getting muddy—sandals are not allowed for the off-road track.

Protect skin without damaging the cenote—use reef-safe, biodegradable products and reapply after the ATV section.
Know the health & weight limits
Ziplines typically cap at ~270 lbs and ATVs ~300 lbs; avoid if pregnant or with recent spine/heart issues.
Pack a small dry bag
Keep your phone and valuables protected during the ride and the cenote swim—phones are usually restricted during activities.

Conservation Note
Operators encourage biodegradable products, limit group sizes, and ask visitors to avoid entering delicate cave formations to reduce impact on cenote ecosystems.
Cenotes like Lakuma were central to Maya life and ritual—freshwater sources and places of offering—and the area’s karst geology created a dense network of underground rivers.
