Ziplines in Riviera Maya - What to Avoid
3. Avoid parks with only one kind of zipline
Trust me. You’re going to get bored.
4. Pick a place near you
Pick an operator near you (who wants to spend their whole day traveling?)
5. Avoid Brand-New Establishments
You want a zipline tour company like Selvatica, that has years and years of experience.
Thats the kind of proven safety track record you can trust.
6. Stay away from tours with bad user-review
Trust your peers. If they have complaints, listen to them. On the other hand
If the rave about a zip line tour in the Riviera Maya, heed their advice.
For example, Selvatica averages a perfect 5.0 on Trip Advisor.
Here's a zipline checklist to help you out:
1. Spare clothes & shoes
Remember, there’s a good chance everything your wearing is either going to get wet (in the cenote or via rain) or muddy. This includes your shoes.
So bring extras!
2. Bring plastic bags
So where did you plan on putting those wet clothes? Bring a plastic bag to isolate your wet clothes.
3. Bring a sweater/blanket
A sweater in the Riviera Maya!?
Seems like crazy talk but it makes sense because you’re going to be coming out of a cenote, and heading into a van with AC.
4. Bring cash
Use it to pay for souvenirs, hand out tips, pay for lockers, buy professional photographs.
5. Eat a light breakfast
Eat something light before you come. Maybe some cereal with chopped fruit. Avoid heavy breakfasts, like eggs or pancake

7. Arrive with energy this means Don’t come hung-over
Try relaxing the day before so your muscles aren’t sore.
Avoid coffee the morning of (this can make you nauseous if you’re susceptible to it)
8. Bring all your necessities
This may seem obvious, but its so easy to overlook something. Especially if you’re packing the day off.
