Riviera Maya Zipline, ATV & Cenote Swim Adventure from Cancun
Charge through the Mayan jungle on ATVs, launch off a canopy of ziplines, then cool off in an underground cenote—this half-day tour from Cancun packs three distinctly Riviera Maya experiences into one guided outing. Read on for what to expect and how to prepare.
The Experience
Before You Go
Hydrate before and during the tour
Heat and humidity sap energy—drink water before pickup and carry a refillable bottle; guides usually allow short water breaks.
Bring closed-toe shoes
ATV trails are dusty and rocky and require secure footwear; sandals are not recommended.
Use biodegradable sunscreen
Apply reef- and cenote-safe sunscreen to avoid contaminating the water and local ecosystems.
Keep valuables dry
Bring a small dry bag or leave cameras in the van—cenote swims and ziplines can soak pockets.
