Complimentary bottled water at the different Buggy excursion stops!
Manual transmission Xrail Buggy (no automatic buggys)!
Drive through the Cedral jungle reserve!
Swim in a freshwater cenote!
A true adventure into the heart of Cozumel's jungle, this excursion will take you through 10 miles of off-road trails that lead to the Jade cenote, where you will have the opportunity to take a dip in the fresh water just like the Mayans. After your swim in the cenote, you will travel through an ancient coral cave. Be prepared for a wild ride and to get dirty on the Cozumel Jungle Xrail Buggy to Jade Cavern and Cenote Swim Excursion.
Once your ship has docked in Cozumel you will meet your guide at your cruise ship pier area. Be sure you have on clothes that you do not mind getting dirty, which is part of the fun! Your guide will take you to the shuttle for the 20-minute drive to the base camp, which is located in the oldest village on the island, El Cedral. Upon your arrival to base camp, the bi-lingual expert guides will show you all there is to know about operating the stick shift Buggy (there are no automatic buggys). These are shared, 4 person vehicles. Drivers can switch out duties mid-way. If you wish to have the vehicle all to yourself, you will need to purchase all 4 seats. You need to be 16 years of age with a valid driver's license to operate the buggies. Your guide will pass out helmets, goggles, and a bandana. There is one guide for every 12 guests. After your safety briefing, you are off into the jungle, following your guide over the trails.
Under the canopy of the jungle, the guide will lead you through miles of trails until you arrive at Jade Cavern, which is a freshwater cenote. You can jump off the side of the cavern into the fresh water to refresh yourself in the crisp cool freshwater. The roots of the trees above stretch down through the limestone rocks to their source of fresh water deep below, surrounded by strangely shaped stalactites.
Turn your buggies around and head back to base camp, where you can relax. Afterward, the transportation will bring you back to your original meeting location.
