We partner with Rewilding Britain to help protect our natural spaces for future adventures.
All centres are vetted for safety and quality. Your adventure is in good hands with adventuro.
The morning is yours at the Tulum ruins, up on the cliff with the Caribbean below, and the afternoon is an ATV ride that ends in a cenote swim. A guide stays with you the whole way and talks you through each part before it starts. We pick you up from your hotel and have you back once you have had a chance to dry off.
We collect you along the Riviera Maya and drive south to Tulum, with the coast keeping you company for a good stretch of the journey. Your guide walks you through the temples, then leaves you a little time to wander, look at the sea, and meet back at the gate.
The second half is the muddy, noisy, smile-on-your-face part. At the park you get a helmet, a plain talk on the brakes, and a jungle track that leads out to a cenote, where the freshwater pool is exactly what you want after the ride, before the van home.
Tulum sits right on the Caribbean, the ruins on the cliff and the jungle park a short hop inland from the coast road. You walk the archaeological site on foot, with time to look around. The ATVs stay on the dirt tracks at the park, well away from the temples.
The cenote is a freshwater sinkhole under the trees, cooler than the sea you were looking at an hour earlier, and you reach it from the ATV trail. Your guide keeps everyone together between the ruins, the park and the water, and shows you where to leave bags before the swim.
You will need to be at least 8 years old, and happy to spend a warm day outside. Sun cream, a hat and a bottle of water make the ruins and the trail much more enjoyable, so have them out from the moment you leave the van.
The cenote is a relaxed swim in a life jacket, with the guide in the water and the group coming out together. On the ATV you wear the helmet they fit, and nobody heads onto the track until you have tried the brakes and heard how the line will ride.
The ruins are not a quick stop on the way to the machines. You get a real walk and a little free time, and the riding talk happens later, at the park, with the ATV in front of you so you can ask about the track before anyone starts an engine.
The same guides cover the archaeological site and the jungle park, so the change from walking to riding feels easy. If rain softens the trail, or the site is busy, they tell you while you are still at the stop you are already enjoying.
Hotel lobby pickup applies on routes that include transport; be ready at the stated departure time with photo ID for children if parks require it.
Self drivers receive meeting point coordinates and parking notes from the operator ahead of the activity date.
Wear light clothes you can move in, closed shoes, and a hat. This includes ruins and an ATV, so sun cream and a bottle of water are worth having from the start.
Bring swimwear underneath if the visit includes a swim, and a dry layer for the van or the boat. Secure anything you do not want to lose.
You should come ready for a walk around the ruins, an ATV ride and a swim. Most of the time is outside, so the heat is as much a part of the day as the activity itself.
Take water when you need it, and tell the guide at the start if you want a slower place in the group. That is much easier than trying to catch them once everyone is already moving.
A meal is not part of this visit, so eat beforehand and bring water with you. A snack in your bag is useful if you get hungry between stops.
Bring more water than you expect to drink if you are out over the middle of the day. A hat makes the sunny stretches much easier.
Light rain does not usually stop the visit. Lightning, a rough sea or a track that is too soft can shorten or move a section, and the guide explains that before you continue.
You will hear the change before you kit up for the next part. The group stays together while that decision is made.
Anyone taking part needs to be at least 8 years old, and children need an adult with them. The guide will say before a section starts if it is not suitable for someone in your group.
They need to be able to listen to the safety talk and stay with the group. The same briefing applies to adults and to children.
You should be comfortable wearing a life jacket and following the guide in the water. You do not need to be a strong swimmer.
The guide stays nearby and calls the group out together. If you would like to stay closer to the entry, say so before you get in.
You can bring a phone or a camera if it is secure and you can spare a hand. Ask the crew before you attach anything to a helmet, a harness or a handlebar.
If someone is taking photos for the group that day, the crew will say so when you arrive. They will also tell you where to collect them afterwards.
If a ruin, a reserve or a beach asks for a local payment, the guide explains it before you get to the entrance. It helps to have a little cash with you in case that happens.
Tips for the crew are your own choice at the end of the day. The guide is the person to ask if you are not sure what a site is asking for.
Bring a dry bag for a phone and anything else you want to keep dry. Ask the crew when you arrive if there is somewhere to change and leave a bag.
Put your name on anything you set down. The group moves between stops, and bags are easy to mix up.
A phone in a waterproof pouch is the simplest option on a boat or in the water. Ask the crew before you strap a camera to a helmet or a machine.
Drones and flash are often not allowed near wildlife or at the ruins. Follow what the guide and the site ask on the day.
