Four activities in one seamless day: drive jungle ATVs, fly across six ziplines, ride through forested tracks on horseback, and cool off in a semi‑open cenote. This practical guide outlines what to expect and how to prepare for the Riviera Maya’s most action‑packed loop.

You kick up red jungle dust as the ATV rumbles into a corridor of palms and strangler figs, the engine keeping time with the calls of birds. Minutes later the canopy opens and you clip into a zip line, the trees sliding below like a living map; the cenote’s cool shadow waits at the end of the day, a mineral-blue pool daring you to dive in.

Bring cash for on-site fees
Operators often require cash for optional ATV insurance (~$10), lockers (~$5) and any extra purchases; cards may not be accepted.
Wear closed-toe shoes
Sturdy sneakers or light hiking shoes protect feet during ATV and horseback sections and provide traction on slick cenote edges.
Use reef-safe sunscreen
Apply sunscreen before swimming in the cenote to reduce chemical impact on freshwater ecosystems and for better skin protection.
