This company is not reputable. They do not follow their own laws and rules. Charged our credit card after cancelling and within the alloted time, even after much communication with manager Luis. Not recommended at all. more

Management response from
Lauren Solano, Sales & Marketing Director

The staff was great - took such good care of my little guys 9 & 11. The scenery was amazing, especially the lines in front of the waterfall. We also really enjoyed the horseback riding. Stop at the little village was a bit lame but wasn't very long. The ONLY reason they didn't get the full 5 stars is because,... more

I'm afraid of long falls and thought I might be nervous on the canopy tour (aka ziplines). Not the case. They have good equipment and take good care. And when you're flying over the trees, your only concern is taking it all in. Everyone from grandma to the little kids had a great time. The lines over the waterfalls are... more

I took the canopy zip line tour only. They also offer a package with horseback riding and canyoning; I did not do that. This was my first time ziplining and I had a very good time. It involves a fair amount of exercise. I was huffing and puffing pretty well at some points. The guides were good and helpful. There... more

I was very surprised that there was quite a hike necessary to get to the canopy. First we took the expected a tractor ride, which was a old school bus pulled by a tractor (hot, stuffy and mery bumpy or more like jarring). Then they strap you up in your harness and 10 pound pulley which hangs off. Then you... more

My husband and I went on the zip line tour in January (and it poured on us the entire day) and we absolutely loved it!!! I think this is the best option for the money. Not only do you get a serious amount of intense ziplining, but you also get to hike, ride horses, walk across a hanging bridge, see... more

I don't understand the negative reviews for this zip line tour. My wife and I recently did it and we both both had a blast, as did the other 5 people that were included in our group (they were not traveling with us). The 7 of us NEVER got stuck on any of the 10 zip lines. Yes, you have... more

We were most disappointed with this tour. We had taken a previous canopy tour on the west coast and enjoyed it immensely. Here the guide was flippant and not very helpful. The guide had a canned speech and didn't seem able to communicate much beyond this. He didn't give us enough information either about how to manage ourselves on the... more

Let me start off by saying that if you have never been ziplining before, you may do this tour and still find it to be fun. However, after having done at least 6 other canopy tours over the course of the last couple years, I would say this one fails in comparison. There are a few parts to this canopy... more

At the beginning of the tour, our instructor explained, "But if you do happen to stop halfway on the cable, you will find which of your friends are really your friends. The ones who aren't will immediately whip out their cameras and start taking pictures of you." This drew a laugh, but little did I know that I would be... more
