Canopy Zip Line Tours

If you come to Costa Rica, there are at least two things that you will not be able to skip. The first is eating ‘rice and beans’ and the second is moving through the tree top by means of a harness, pulleys and a cable. The canopy tour or zip lines is a Costa Rican specialty. For the most part, its fame comes from the sensation it produces when you achieve a sense of flight while rapidly moving from one tree top to the next.

However zip lines will also provide unique monkey's-eye view of the forest canopy where thick branches serve as platforms for an incredible diversity of orchids, bromeliads, ferns, cacti as well as many other epiphytic and parasitic plants. On occasion opportunities will also arise to spot such animals as tree frogs, vine snakes (completely harmless), sloths, monkeys a myriad of bird species.
