Puerto Maya Cancun-Jungle Tour: Fun Facts & Cool Features

One of its standout features is driving a speed boat through mangrove forests. Drivers must be at least 18 to operate these small vessels. They are easy to handle and give you freedom as you navigate the lagoon's natural channels to the open Caribbean Sea.

The guides are a reassuring feature. On your tour, they'll share insights into the history and ecology of the Yucatán Peninsula. Their expertise will enrich your connection to the natural surroundings and the Mayan culture.

If you want a deeper dive into the area's marine life, book a snorkeling or scuba trip with nearby Dressel Divers Cancún. Such convenience makes coordinating a dive with a jungle tour easy for the ultimate underwater experience.

The variety of tours ensures there's an adventure for every experience level. While the Jungle Tour suits all ages, the Jet Ski Adventure is for those seeking an individualized experience. Drivers must be at least 18 but those 13 and older may ride as passengers. You'll get to jet ski in the Nichupté Lagoon, whose tranquil waters make the experience safe and easy to navigate.

The mangrove tour is a budget-friendly, slower-paced experience. It is available for those four and older, includes a Mayan ceremony and lunch, and explores the Nichupté Lagoon in a canopy-covered boat.

Lastly, after your tour, a delicious meal is only minutes away. For instance, head to Señor Frog's Cancun to discuss your Mayan adventure over fresh seafood and craft cocktails.

The Puerto Maya Cancun is a must-see for anyone planning a Cancun vacation. It's an exhilarating, educational way to escape the usual tourist activities and connect with the region's unparalleled beauty.
