Cancun’s party reputation precedes it, but there’s much more to this spring break favorite than tequila, tacos, and tan lines. Beyond the palm-fringed beaches and luxury resorts, Cancun tours let you explore ancient Mayan marvels, swim in a crystal-clear cenote, zip through the rainforest on an ATV, or trek to hidden caves and underwater rivers around the Yucatán Peninsula. There’s plenty of beachside fun, too, whether snorkeling and scuba diving along the Great Maya Reef, cruising the coast on a luxury charter yacht, or getting your adrenaline-fix parasailing, jet skiing, or ziplining.
