★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 4,873 reviews · 4 hours (approx.) · from $49

Guides such as Omar, Alan, Moto Moto, and Nacho are known for lively group leadership. Hotel pickup, snacks, insurance, and conservation fees are included.

“If you are staying in Tulum or Cancun expect the trip to get to the location of the zip lines and cenote to be almost a two hour car ride. They do have wonderful drivers who will pick you up at most hotels though. The ATVs were our least favorite part (you could not go fast, and you don't go anywhere interesting). The zip lines were okay (we are huge thrill seekers so not the best zip lines we have been on). The zip lines also had a few safety concerns (they rushed each person off the zip line and people could have been at risk for colliding). The tequila…”

Guides such as Moto Moto, Julio, Raul, and Luis keep things moving. Expect optional photos, tequila, tacos, and frequent upgrade offers.

“This was so far away, like an hour from where we were staying, and was such a disappointment and waste of time. The zip lining was very average, nothing special, like 20 feet above the ground in some woods…. The ATV riding was absolutely pathetic. They basically take you on an old unmaintained utility road, that’s full of ruts and bumps, and it’s just not enjoyable at all! The swimming at the end was awesome, but definitely not worth the amount of time and energy getting there, taking buses, getting in line, etc. etc.. Not only that but constant up selling…. Oh and the free lunch? LOL you get two…”

6.Cancun Best ATV Tour, Ziplines and Cenote Swim with Lunch

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 3,406 reviews · 4 hours (approx.) · from $48

Ride an ATV through the jungle, swim in a cenote, cross three zip lines, sample tequila, and eat two tacos on a roughly four-hour outing from Cancun or Playa del Carmen. Guides such as Alan, Raul, Julio, Nacho, and Ernesto are praised for keeping groups safe and entertained.

“You get what you paid for. The quality is very poor and minimal. From the second you step foot in the parks they immediately try to sell you the “premium” package, which is not worth it. Then they walk you to the gift shop to try to sell even more items to you. And they don’t allow phones or video cameras which forces you to buy their images if you want memorabilia. They scammed us by telling us one price in USD, and charging our card way more. They switched out the receipts which gave me no evidence of the promised price when trying to dispute it with my bank.”

“Alexis was such a great tour guide!! He made sure to take great care of us and keep us safe. The overall excursion was very fun. Jumping in the center was my favorite part. The locals can be a bit annoying when trying to sell you stuff but saying a polite no thank you was all that was needed and they respected that. Great company and great excursion!”

★★★★★★★★★★4.8 · 2,113 reviews · 5 - 5.5 hours · from $71

Join a small group of up to eight for a 5 to 5.5 hour Etna tour from Catania. Ride by Jeep or van, taste wine, honey, and local products in Zafferana Etnea, enter a helmeted lava cave, and finish near 2,000 meters with sunset views. Guides include Luca, Fabio, Gaetano, and Fabrizio.

“The pick up location was very easy to find and convenient. The team from the tour company were all very friendly and the van was very comfortable. We went on one of the last evening tours of the year in late October, so the weather didn't allow for us to see the sunset through the clouds. Nevertheless, it was an amazing experience and the Silvestre craters in particular were fantastic. Our guid was friendly, entertaining and informative. I would definitely recommend this trip, and would attend again in September where it is said they have the most magnificent sunsets.”

From Vík, ride a high-clearance Super Jeep across Mýrdalssandur to Katla Ice Cave. Walk on Mýrdalsjökull with crampons and a helmet, then see blue ice streaked with volcanic ash. Guides such as Helgi, Peter, Alex, and Kamil are known for adding useful geology, humor, and patient help.

“Our driver was knowledgeable, low key, and great fun. I don’t think he needs to drive on gravel roads with reckless abandon. Otherwise it was just a good tour but I think they need to control the number of visitors at any given time better - it was beginning to feel like Disneyland.”

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 2,041 reviews · 4 hours (approx.) · from $49

Spend about four hours at Extreme Adventure Eco Park on a guided ATV ride, three ziplines, and a natural cenote swim. Pickup is offered from many Playa del Carmen, Cancun, and Riviera Maya hotels. Guides such as Sergio, Gio, Lalo, and Ximema have earned praise for safety and family care, but expect add-on sales.

“Not at all worth the $. You are greeted by an ultra pushy salesperson trying to up sell you. The cenote swimming was the best part but you only had 20 minutes there. ATV was next, not all members of our party got to drive, they forced you to ride with a guide. The ATV through the jungle is really just a gravel road that you go in circles on under power lines. It was not scenic or jungle, it is literally the access road used to build power lines. Forcing my two 18 year old daughters to straddle and hug a random guy made me VERY uncomfortable. The zipline…”

You’ll ride a single or tandem ATV through rice fields, jungle, villages, river crossings, mud, Gorilla Cave, and a waterfall near Ubud. Guides provide safety training, helmets, boots, lockers, towels, showers, insurance, and lunch. Hotel pickup is available from many parts of Bali.

“Such a cool experience! Everything was well planned out! It was so much fun, the entire time I was thinking I can’t believe I’m riding an ATV through the jungle in Bali! The guides were super helpful and friendly making sure everyone stayed safe and would do regular check ins to make sure everyone stayed with the group. There was a point where my atv was acting up and stalled and they replaced it with another one on the trail immediately! Such an incredible experience. And after the tour they had a lunch buffet style, it was OK. I would have preferred more breakfast options. But another thing that I…”

Carlos, Abraham, and their team lead a half-day buggy ride through jungle tracks outside Playa del Carmen, followed by a cenote swim and a stop in a Maya village. Expect mud, dust, homemade empanadas, local families, and a small group of no more than 14 people.

“We went with my mom and I have three boys, age 4, 7 and 11. One note, depending on how far your hotel is your trip to the start point, maybe up to 2 hours long. We were the furthest of our trip and it was 1.5 hours. The bus was very nice. And all three of my kids didn't really have a problem with the trip getting there. I was glad that the tour guides were very diligent. Because I thought we were getting picked up at our hotel at 9:00 a.m. but we actually got picked up at 7:00. They made sure I knew the right time the…”
