Horseback Riding plus ATV, Cenote, Ziplines, and Lunch

Set inside the jungle of the Riviera Maya, this outing packs four distinct activities into a single day: horseback riding, ATV driving, ziplining, and a swim in a Mayan cenote. Rather than choosing one adventure activity for your day out from Cancun, Playa del Carmen, or Tulum, this tour strings all four together, giving you a broad sample of what the jungle terrain outside the resort corridor has to offer.

The day is built around movement through the jungle by different means. You start in the saddle for the horseback riding portion, then switch to an ATV for a driving circuit through jungle roads, described as an ATV challenge. Ziplining follows, with four separate lines strung through the tree canopy. The cenote segment lets you cool off in natural fresh water after the more physically demanding parts of the day, with entrance to the Mayan cenote included in the package. Throughout the day, freshwater is available, and the group activities are covered by insurance and a conservation fee built into the ATV portion.

Once the four activities wrap up, the tour serves a Mayan-style lunch of chicken fajitas, prepared without spice, giving everyone a chance to refuel before the return transfer. Transportation to and from the activity site runs in an air-conditioned vehicle, and the overall day, including the roughly 5.5-hour activity block and about 1.5 hours of transfer time, is designed to still leave time back at the hotel rather than consuming an entire day of a shorter vacation.

This tour suits travelers who want variety over depth in a single adventure day and who are comfortable with a moderate level of physical fitness, since the activities involve riding, driving, and physical exertion across jungle terrain. It is specifically not recommended for travelers with spinal injuries, pregnant travelers, or those with poor cardiovascular health, and there is a 200-pound weight limit for participation. Families or groups looking to combine several adrenaline activities without booking them separately will find this format efficient, though anyone with the physical restrictions noted above should look elsewhere.

Pick-up works on a two-schedule system depending on when you book: a morning tour with pick-up between 8:00 and 8:30 am in the Cancun and Playa del Carmen zone, or between 7:00 and 8:00 am in the Tulum zone, arriving at the park by 9:30 am; or a noon tour with pick-up between 12:00 and 12:30 pm in Cancun and Playa del Carmen, or 11:00 am to 12:00 pm in Tulum, arriving by 1:30 pm. If your hotel is not on the standard pick-up list, a company representative will contact you directly to arrange a special meeting point and time; for those staying in Tulum hotels or Airbnbs without a listed pick-up, the designated meeting point is the Super Aki Tulum Supermarket downtown.

Lockers are available for a $5 USD fee per locker, which is not included in the package, and professional photos of the activities can be purchased separately if you want them. Cameras, drones, and other valuables are not permitted during the activities themselves, and cell phone use is also restricted for safety reasons while participating, so plan to leave those items secured rather than carrying them along.
