Program details

Prepare for an exhilarating day of thrills and spills with this rip-roaring Mayan adventure that includes a zipline jungle canopy descent, rappelling in the rainforest and snorkelling in an underground river with crystal clear waters and astounding rock formations. And cap it all off with a feast of Mexican cuisine. This is the ultimate action-packed getaway in the Riviera Maya.

Expert guides will accompany you through the woods, explaining all about the magnificent wildlife that prowls the bush and the curious flora that blooms out of every verdant corner. Begin your roller-coaster ride of emotions by flying 20 metres (65 feet) above the roof of the lush jungle as you speed along the fastest zipline in the Riviera watching the trees rustle below you. Test your nerves with an adrenalin-pumping rappel descent of 21 metres in the heart of the raw rainforest.

After the exertions with the rope, it’s time for a more relaxing though no less exciting activity with the snorkelling expedition. Start off in the crystalline waters of the Mexican Caribbean, where you will find yourself surrounded by multicoloured marine life. Continue to an underground river in the deep of jungle. It is dark, mysterious and, above all, breathtakingly beautiful. Last but not least, discover the magnificent Mayan cenotes – round, subterranean sinkholes. In Mayan tradition, the cenotes were mythical places and modern scholars believe that humans were thrown in as sacrifices for the gods. Thankfully, the only sacrifice you will have to make will be heading back to your hotel.
