Amazing swinging through the trees & huge thank you to Rudy & Maurizio! - We had an amazing time swinging across the trees (zip lining!) with the whole family - my 8 year old daughter and 13 year old son loved it as much as us!
Rudy & Maurizio were fantastic ! They put our safety first but were kind , patient and very funny and interesting people; we are very grateful to them!
Despite it being high season we still felt like we were the only ones there when we zip lined and they managed everyone very well.
Highly recommend this!

Great Views, Great Guides, Great first Zipline Experience - Our first zip lining experience made memorable by great guides Sergio and Brian. The scenery is incredible and we appreciated the old tree canopy environment more than the artificial towers at some other places in the area. The trees - particularly the ficus trees are bigger than you can imagine - so impressive. Our guides emphasized safety throughout and they were absolutel pros - you could tell they take safety #1 - but seemed to have fun with us along the way too. The ladder climb inside the tree and Tarzan swing were a lot of fun! I highly recommend this experience while in Monteverde.

There's a reason they have the best reviews!! - At the start of our tour, our guides said what make this tour special is that the ziplines are really embedded within the forest and it was built to make as small of an impact as possible on the environment. I thought they were just hyping themselves up but after seeing other zipline options in Monteverde it's TOTALLY what sets them apart! Other places seem to be in huge industrial-looking parks, flying over roads and parking lots but on this tour, you were really among the trees soaring over the forest and in the canopy. It was so beautiful! David and Grayven also did a great job making sure everyone was safe and secure the whole time and fostered a really fun and friendly environment.

Adventure in Monteverde Cloud Forest - This was a great and awesome experience! We really enjoyed having a new adventure in the Monteverde Cloud Forest. Very diverse experience, as we not only did a lot of ziplines, but we also did rappel, a Tarzan jump and climbed the interior of a tree. Our guides Sergio, Brian and David were very friendly and funny. Sergio took us amazing pictures during the experience too. I would love to repeat this experience in the future.

AVOID - The tour operator harassed my girlfriend the entire time, making creepy comments about her looks and body despite her asking to stop. He then proceeded to ask her to stay in the country with him as if he were trying to traffick her. He also made comments insulting me right in front of my face because he assumed I didn’t understand Spanish. We were uncomfortable and fearful for our safety the entire time. Very uncomfortable and unprofessional. There are plenty of other zip line operators that won’t sexually harass and insult you. Go elsewhere
