★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 1,057 reviews · 4 hours (approx.) · from $80Our pick

Spend about four hours at Selva Maya Eco Adventure Park near Tulum, with ziplines, nine hanging bridges, rock climbing, rappelling, and swims in two cenotes. Guides such as David, Sergio, Roberto, and Gael lead the activities in English. ATV rides cost extra.

“Fun experience overall. Definitely recommend! The location is in close proximity to Bahia Principe, which is where we stayed. That's important because taxi prices in Tulum are OUTRAGEOU$! The ATV ride is LENGTHY and the machines aren't new, so be prepared, but it's fun! The ziplines were AMAZING! 3 of the 9 are high enough to hang upside down, which is cool! -- Just make sure they keep track of everyone in your group. One of our friends was forgotten on one of the lines and incurred a small injury. The bridges between the ziplines are also challenging, but that makes it more of an adventure! The cenotes are just…”

“Driss (tour guide) was funny, knowledgeable and very kind! He took the time to tour in two languages and never left anyone out of the fun! He even got us a ride to our hotel (we paid) but at least we didn’t have to hunt a taxi down! 10/10! The tour itself was exciting! Repelling was scary but rewarding when we got to the bottom. The cavern was really cool and swimming in the depths of the planet…nothing cooler!!”

They wouldn't let us take photos, and the photo package they offered was way too expensive. Why can't we just purchase a few photos instead of the whole package?”

“The only good experience was the cenote cave. We prepaid a set price for the excursion days before, however the day of the excursion they sent an email stating we had to pay an additional $30 each person for “maintenance fee” but no one could explain what that was and why wasn’t it included in the original price or let us know we’d have to pay it upon booking. On ATV’s we didn’t get the full experience because ATVs kept messing up or running out of gas as we were riding. Seem like The guide had us going 2 miles per hour on the ATVs. Also the food and lemonade…”

Pickup details vary, so confirm your meeting point and bring water, swimwear, and a change of clothes.

“Beware. Despite saying they do a hotel pickup, we were told to meet them at a local supermarket, so we had to pay out of pocket for round trip taxis to the meeting spot. After a brief ATV ride down a bumpy dirt road, we waited for over an hour in our zip line harnesses and helmets doing nothing, it was well over 80 degrees and no water was offered. After our ziplines, which were part of a chaotic and disorganized hike (again with no water and little explanation-multiple people in my group were feeling nauseous/lightheaded from dehydration), we swam in the cenotes, which was actually really beautiful! We were…”

“A really fun time ziplining at Costa Azul. Pickup was a breeze in a shared shuttle. The actual experience was really fun, Matias and crew made lots of jokes and generally made it fun. My only wish was that we could go faster on the ziplines. :) But everyone gave great instruction, was super helpful. Rappelling at the end was pretty excellent, the food and drinks at the end were good, tequila tasting was a bonus! Just be advised that there is a bit of hiking uphill involved. Everything is clearly marked and they do have a couple of water stations, but if it's a hot day, just drink a…”
