Ziplining in Tulum: ATV, Cenotes & Kayaking

The longest zipline in the Riviera Maya crosses the canopy in a single run.

This full-day activity near Tulum combines five experiences: ATV riding on jungle trails, a zipline circuit with a 1 km line, swimming in two cenotes, kayaking through forest canals and lagoons, and a Mayan welcome ritual. A guide leads the group through each location, and the day includes meals, water, life jackets and all equipment. Children from age 5 are welcome.

The Experience

The day runs 10 hours and moves between two jungle locations, each with its own rhythm. You start with speed: riding ATVs at full pace along forest trails, then moving straight into the zipline circuit. The water zipline comes first, then the main event—a 1 km line that stretches across the canopy. After that intensity, you swim in the Yum-Ha cenote, a natural cave with crystal clear water where a guide helps you explore the space. The cenote cools you down and marks the shift to the quieter half of the day.

At the second location, a reserve deeper in the jungle, the pace changes. You swim in the Chil'much cenote, a cavernous formation ideal for connecting with the landscape, then hike through the Mayan jungle with a guide pointing out the natural detail. Kayaking through quiet canals and lagoons follows—a moment to sit still and photograph the scenery. The day closes with a Mayan welcome ritual, a cultural moment that gives shape to everything that came before it.

The group is guided throughout, and meals, bottled water and life jackets are provided. You'll need a moderate level of fitness; the weight limit on ziplines is 115 kg (230 lb). Transportation to the starting point is arranged, and the operator can advise on public transit options if you prefer.

Operated by The Jungle Experience

Is this one for you?You operate the ATV and zipline yourself—this is not a guided tour where you watch from a vehicle, but a full-day activity where you ride, zip, swim and paddle. It suits anyone with moderate fitness who wants to move through the jungle actively rather than observe it, and who has a full day to spend (10 hours) doing the thing rather than traveling to see it.
