If you’re after a day (or night) packed with excitement and a touch of mystery, the Xplor Fuego Tour offers a compelling way to explore the jungle’s dark side. This adventure takes place after dark, offering a unique blend of adrenaline-pumping activities and atmospheric exploration that’s hard to find elsewhere in Cancun. From zip-line rides at night to underground cavern rafting, this experience promises an unforgettable evening.
What makes this tour stand out? First, we love the combination of adventure and comfort—including round-trip transportation from Cancun, so you don’t have to worry about driving in the dark or finding your way. Second, the food is surprisingly good, with a hearty BBQ ribs buffet that reviewers say exceeds expectations. Third, the variety of activities means there’s something for every thrill-seeker, whether it’s zip-lining, amphibious driving, or cave exploring.
A potential consideration? The tour runs in the evening, so for those with early bedtimes or limited stamina for night outings, it might be a bit late. Also, while the price is $191 per person, the value is rooted in the inclusive nature of the activities and meals, making it a worthwhile investment for adventure lovers.
This experience suits travelers looking for high-energy fun, unique nighttime perspectives, and a mix of adrenaline and relaxation. It’s ideal for groups, couples, or families with kids aged 5 and above who crave something different from the usual beach or city tour.

What Does the Tour Cover?

The Xplor Fuego Tour is a carefully curated night adventure that turns the usual daytime park visits on their head. Instead of the bright daylight, you’ll explore caves, caverns, and underground rivers illuminated only by firelight, creating a mysterious glow that heightens the thrill.
It’s a full six-hour experience, starting with pick-up from select Cancun hotels at around 4:30 pm. After a brief ride to the park, you’ll be immersed in a series of activities designed for adrenaline junkies and explorers alike.
The Activities and Their Unique Appeal

Ziplining in the Dark
The seven zip lines circuit is a major highlight. Notably, it includes the highest zip line in the Riviera Maya, giving you a sweeping view of the lush jungle at night. The sensation of zipping through the dark, with the canopy behind you, adds an extra layer of excitement that’s hard to match during daytime.
Jungle and Cave Exploration
We loved the way the tour combines raiding underground caverns with rafting and walking through caves. Paddling 570 meters of underground rivers in illuminated rafts is a surreal experience, especially with the flickering light from the fire torches. Reviewers mention the caves as being “an underground world full of stalactites and stalagmites,” which makes the adventure feel like stepping into a secret world.
Amphibious Vehicle Drive
Driving jungle trails in amphibious vehicles offers a chance to see the landscape from a different perspective. Covering 5 km of trails, this activity combines scenic views with the fun of navigating rugged terrain—something you wouldn’t typically get in a standard park visit.
Hammock and Cenote Walk
For a more relaxed moment, you can glide on a hammock into a cenote—an ideal way to unwind after the adrenaline rush. Walking through caverns adds a contemplative element to the evening, making the experience well-rounded.

The Food and Beverages

The buffet of BBQ ribs is surprisingly substantial and flavorful, with vegetarian options available for those who don’t eat meat. Reviewers particularly mention that the food “was beyond expectations,” which is notable given that many adventure parks focus solely on activity rather than quality dining.
Unlimited non-alcoholic beverages like coffee, atole, champurrado, and fresh water keep you refreshed throughout your adventure. The inclusion of drinks and a hearty meal makes the entire outing feel like a well-thought-out experience rather than just a series of activities.
Transportation and Logistics
One of the standout features of this tour is the round-trip transportation from Cancun. This not only saves you the hassle of figuring out directions but also ensures you’re safely transported back after a long night of fun. The pickup is scheduled for 4:30 pm, with the park opening around that time for the night adventures.
The group size is limited to 40 travelers, which helps maintain a lively but manageable atmosphere. Many reviewers appreciate the friendly and professional staff, who are generally praised for their attentiveness and safety-conscious approach.
What Do Other Travelers Say?
The glowing reviews mention “exciting zip lines and water slides,” with particular praise for the friendly staff and atmosphere. One reviewer highlighted the environment as “great” and noted the staff’s professionalism as a highlight. The food, often an afterthought in adventure parks, gets special mention for exceeding expectations, which adds tremendous value, especially since the ticket price includes the meal.
