The experience

From the treetops you look down the line of cables that will carry you. They are attached to the trees themselves, and the descent is the whole point: you travel down through the rain forest near Jaco, Costa Rica, with the canopy around you instead of a road below. The gear you clip into is the zip lining equipment that comes with the tour, and the guides beside you are professional, as is the equipment they check.

Take a moment before you go to be honest with yourself. This tour is not so recommended if you are afraid of heights, because every stretch of it is spent high above the ground on cables. If that does not bother you, the rain forest is what you will remember, seen from the air as you move from one descent to the next.
