Cancun is one of the most popular destinations for bachelor and bachelorette parties, milestone birthdays and friends' trips. With a group, the challenge is finding activities everyone enjoys and keeping logistics simple. Here are ideas that work for groups.
Daytime adventures
Jungle ATV, zipline and cenote day
The classic group adventure: everyone gets their own ATV, you fly over the canopy on ziplines, cool off in a cenote and finish with a tequila tasting. Great for photos and stories. Read our ATV + zipline + cenote guide.
Catamaran to Isla Mujeres
Sailing, snorkeling, music, lunch and usually an open bar. Many groups book a private catamaran for bachelorette parties.
Cenote hopping
Visit two or three cenotes on the Ruta de los Cenotes. Good for groups who want something active but relaxed.
Golf or beach club day
For mixed groups, a beach club in Playa del Carmen or the Hotel Zone gives everyone a pool, music and food without too much planning.
Food and drinks
- Tequila and mezcal tastings, included in some tours or as a bar experience
- Group cooking class with lunch
- Taco crawl downtown
- Private chef dinner in your villa or Airbnb
Nightlife
- Coco Bongo: show and club in one, popular with bachelor and bachelorette groups. Book VIP tables in advance for big groups.
- Party Center area in the Hotel Zone
- Rooftop and lagoon bars for a calmer night
Logistics for groups
Private transportation
Coordinating shared shuttles for 8 people from different hotels is stressful. A private van solves it. Our private tour includes private transport for groups of 5 to 8 people, with the van fee paid at the park: $80 from Cancun or Puerto Morelos, $100 from Costa Mujeres and $110 from Playa del Carmen. See private ATV tours.
Booking tips
- Book early. Group availability fills up, and early-booking discounts multiply with group size. With our tiers, booking 60+ days ahead halves the regular price.
- Let different people choose different activities when possible. Not everyone wants to zipline.
- Check weight and age rules for everyone before paying. Ours are 130 kg / 286 lbs for ziplines and horseback riding.
- Plan adventures before the big night out, not the morning after. Operators can refuse guests who are clearly intoxicated.
- Name one organiser to handle payments and communication with operators.

Frequently asked questions
What are the best group activities in Cancun?
Jungle adventure combos, catamarans to Isla Mujeres, cenote days, tequila tastings and a night at Coco Bongo are group favourites.
Can a large group book a jungle tour together?
Yes. For groups of more than 8, contact the operator directly so they can arrange vehicles and keep the group together.
What should a bachelorette group wear on an ATV tour?
Closed-toe shoes and clothes you don't mind getting dirty, with a swimsuit underneath for the cenote. Matching T-shirts work great; save the sashes for the evening.
Bring the whole crew
Private van for 5–8 people and a jungle day with ATVs, ziplines and a cenote.
