This place brings you face to face with the imposing Mayan jungle of the region, of course, accompanied by experts, and if that doesn’t surprise you, get ready because it’s just the beginning. You will test your courage in fascinating activities such as

Touring the place in ziplines. Nothing compares to an impressive view of the place, seeing everything from above. Feel the wind in your face as you quickly explore the best of the jungle.

Driving four-wheelers. All-terrain vehicles, ideal for a jungle area. Drive an ATV and take your speed to another level.

Cross suspension bridges. Test your balance and cross the hanging bridges that swing from one side to the other, while you observe your surroundings, a unique scenario!

Throw yourself into the void by bungee. One of the most extreme activities. Feel the adrenaline rush and throw yourself into the Mayan jungle in a bungee jump. Don’t worry! Just enjoy it, do you have the courage?

Swim in a cenote. Natural ponds of great importance for the ancient Mayan culture, where you can swim today. Dive into the mysteries that lie hidden in the depths of a cenote.

Selvatica, a great place to have fun and live strong emotions with the whole family. We advise you to consider some restrictions that exist because of the ages, this because the place always guarantees the security of each guest.

2. Xplor Fuego, a night adventure!

Fun activities await you. Ziplines, for example. But you will be surprised because everything happens at night. Yes, at night! So, don’t hesitate and get ready for the most extreme experiences. You can drive through the jungle in amphibious vehicles or swim in a river of stalactites and get to know the natural formations that have formed over millions of years. That’s not all! Get ready for a subway journey and paddle with your own hands on a raft. You can also enjoy a trip on something similar to a zipline; can a hammock and a zip line be combined? Yes, and the trip is much more comfortable and fun.

3. Jolly Roger, a pirate dinner!

If you want to have dinner and enjoy a great pirate show, don’t hesitate to get onboard an authentic pirate ship, The Jolly Roger. Inspired by Santa Maria, one of the emblematic ships where Christopher Columbus arrived in America in 1492, the Jolly Roger combines safety and fun at the same time. An action-packed show for the whole family. Fireworks, sword fighting, and the best acrobatics you can witness.

4. Cancun Sailing, travel in a catamaran!

Get ready for a great tour, with the option of choosing some drinks from the bar such as beer, rum, vodka, tequila, and whiskey. If you don’t drink alcohol, don’t worry, because there is purified water and soda available at all times. The fun continues afterward, as there is a stop in Isla Mujeres for snorkeling. Afterward, a buffet awaits you at a beach club. After lunch, the next stop is in the center of the island, at the pier. You have two hours of free time to visit the center of Isla Mujeres. Best of all, the tour includes everything, can you believe it?

5. Xenotes, time to dive!

There are four types of cenotes in the world; in Cancun and the Riviera Maya you can find them in the Cenote Route and Xenotes is the only tour that takes you to know them.
