Tropical Bungee offers both bungee jumping (top 10 in the world), as well as waterfall rappelling. They are beyond accommodating, and they are extremely safety conscious with their equipment and their activities. The sheer beauty of the locations that you visit in combination with the adrenaline rush of the activities and the friendliness of the guides will stay with you... More

We made direct arrangements through their website for a late afternoon bungee jump - one adult and two children (11 and 14). They promised an exciting bungee jump, a t shirt, photographs to be emailed and a video to be emailed as well. It has been a very frustrating two weeks of repeated emails and attempts to contact with no... More

Went to Costa Rica with a couple friends, and this was our first thing to do. It was a GREAT time! I was a little leery about bungee jumping, but the guys were very reassuring and showed us all the equipment, what it does, and told us how often it gets inspected. They have a perfect safety record and take... More

This was a incredible place! I went in a group of 4 and there were three people we did not know also going. It was so much fun. Some people in the group were terrified but the instructors were really able to reassure everyone how safe it was and how much fun we were going to and did have. You... More

It was my first time bungee jumping at the guys at Tropical bungee made it an awesome experience. The price was fantastic, the guys running the jump were professional, easy going and made the experience extremely memorable! Would definitely recommend these guys to first-timers or experienced jumpers!

The staff at Tropical Bungee was very helpful and friendly - it was not my first jump but it was my friend's first time, and they were very patient and made the experience fun.

My boyfriend and I were hyped about going to Costa Rica to do some outdoor activities. We had done initial research while in Toronto and decided what we wanted to do a bungee jump. We compared this company to others in the area but found there were far more reviews and positive comments about Tropical bungee than their competitors. They... More

I was really excited to go bungee jumping. I made a reservation for my last day in Costa Rica. A Tropical Bungee shuttle was supposed to pick me up at the airport at a specific time. My plane arrived on time and I looked for the shuttle. I didn't see it, so I waited 15 minutes before calling Tropical Bungee.... More

Competent, patient, safe staff, good equipment in a scenic easy to reach location. This was my first jump and while I'd consider a higher rating I didn't like the retrieval process hanging on the bungee cord being hoisted back up rather slowly. This may be the norm but it was a little uncomfortable. Everything else was top notch.
