Gear up for the best ATVs and zip line tour in Cancun / Riviera Maya

Your heart-pounding adventure begins with a morning pick-up from your resort in the Riviera Maya or Cancun. Hop aboard your comfortable transportation and head to the Mayan jungle for a start time either at 9 a.m. or at 12:30 p.m. Sit back and enjoy the ride as the vehicle takes you through the sights of the Riviera Maya until arriving at the area near the town of Akumal, which is known for its amazing hidden natural wonders.

When you enter the rugged backroads of the Mexican Caribbean, you’ll come to the home base where your English-speaking guide will meet you and welcome you into the jungle. You’ll receive a briefing and full instructions to know what to expect during your jaunt. Know that the order of activities varies depending on the operations of the day; but regardless of the itinerary, you’ll gear up for quite a thrilling adventure ahead!

Take on the rugged terrain on adrenaline-inducing ATVs

Once you’re prepared, hop on your all-terrain vehicle, which can be a single-seater to keep all the fun to yourself, or select a two-seat ATV to share the high-intensity fun with a companion. Follow your guide as you step on the accelerator and set off to explore the vibrant Mexican wilderness. Feel the adrenaline pumping through your entire system as you zoom through the jungle’s thickness of trees and greenery at an exhilarating speed!

Continue putting the pedal to the metal along this off-road circuit and see why it’s one of the best in the Riviera Maya. Make sure to time the turns just right, and even look for muddy spots if rain has fallen recently to make quite a splash along your path. Keep experiencing the fun of going through bumpy paths and rough patches of dirt without any problem, and when you’re done steering through the jungle, you’ll enjoy the intensity still pounding inside your body from all the thrills!

Soar above the jungle on several zip lines in Riviera Maya

Because this excursion is jam-packed for adrenaline junkies, the other main activity of the day will have you blasting through the jungle canopy on a series of zip lines. Follow your guide into the depths of the wilderness, then gear up with your safety helmet and gloves and listen to your guide’s instructions. Next up, you’ll ascend onto a platform, where you’ll grab onto your climbing harness, hook it on a cable, and fly through the jungle on some of the most exciting zip line circuits in the area!

Usually, the saying goes ‘Don’t look down,’ but in this instance, you really should take it all in, as treetops and other wild fauna lurk below. Feel the wind in your face as you’re soaring through the amazing scenery, and let the rush of excitement flow through your veins during your breathtaking flight! You’ll get to go through several zip lines, each one varying in speed, height, and length, allowing you to really feed your need for high-flying speed!

Discover the mystery of underground cenotes and caves

As if all the airborne exploration weren’t enough, your trek will continue to amaze you — this time by taking you way below ground. Change into your bathing suit and gear up with snorkeling gear as your guides take you on an amazing journey to a subterranean cenote hidden inside an amazing cave. This was the underworld that the Mayan people revered as a portal to their gods, so make sure to enter this sacred space with plenty of reverence.

You’ll definitely cool down as you descend into the crystal-clear waters near the cave’s entrance. Then you’ll explore an underground river system that is adorned with impressive stalactites, stalagmites, and other astounding rock formations that formed over millennia. These naturally forming sculptures provide a mystical setting that’s unique to this part of the world, and you’ll use your snorkel gear to view them above and below the water. This is a beautifully haunting experience to remember for many years to come.

Reenergize with a Mexican buffet lunch

After you’ve concluded one of the best ATVs and zip line tours in the Cancun / Riviera Maya region, it’s time to wind down with a Mexican-style buffet that includes a selection of soft drinks. Enjoy your meal in the seclusion of the jungle, and listen to the sounds of nature accompany you during your lunch. When you finish your meal, say goodbye to your guides and hop back on your transportation for the return ride to your resort, giving you time to reflect on an intensely fun outing that is sure to be a standout of your Mexican Caribbean vacation.
