AllTournative off-track adventures get you up close and personal not only with nature, but with the ancient Maya culture. Several tours are available, which may include a bike ride through jungle paths, exploring ancient archaeological sites; mystical purification ceremonies; exhilarating zip-lining through the air on a series of “you Tarzan, me Jane” flights high above the jungle via a series of “z-wires” which become progressively longer, steeper – and more exhilarating. Once you’ve completed your solo flights climb aboard an inner tube or snorkel around the crystalline cenote to get a glimpse of the mysterious underwater world of caverns and crevices formed by Mother Nature eons ago. Following a lunch of highly seasoned Yucatécan treats such as chicken steeped in a toasted chile sauce, rice, vegetables, salad and jugo de jamaica (made from a branch of the hibiscus family), you hop on your bike for the short ride back to the van and depart this jungle oasis.
