Punta Cana: Zipline Adventure & Hanging Bridge with Pickup

Summary

Zip through Punta Cana’s treetops and cross a shaky bridge at Hacienda Tuko

You’ll feel your heart race as you soar across eight ziplines and tiptoe over a hanging bridge at Hacienda Tuko in Punta Cana. With hotel pickup included, plus fresh fruit and bottled water to keep you going, this day trip gives you both adrenaline jolts and small moments of laughter or quiet awe. It’s one of those adventures that lingers long after you’ve washed off the dust.

What’s the experience like?

I didn’t expect my legs to shake so much before the first zipline — you’d think after seeing all those videos online I’d be ready. But standing there in Punta Cana, helmet slightly crooked (thanks to my big head), the air felt thick and sweet, like overripe mangoes. Our guide, Miguel, grinned and checked our harnesses one more time. He said something about “carbon fiber lines” being extra safe; I just nodded and tried not to look down. The first jump is always the hardest, right?

The sound of the pulley was louder than I thought — a sharp whir that cut through the jungle hum. You get these flashes of green below you, then suddenly you’re flying above it all. By the third line, I started laughing instead of screaming. There was this moment on the hanging bridge where everyone went quiet except for some birds squabbling in the trees. My hands were sweaty on the ropes but I kind of loved that weird mix of nerves and calm. Someone behind me made a joke about Indiana Jones and we all cracked up — even Miguel.

Afterwards they handed us cold bottled water and a fruit cup that tasted way better than it should have (maybe just because I was still buzzing from adrenaline). The ride back in the van was quiet — sunburned faces staring out at sugarcane fields. I kept replaying that view from halfway across the bridge in my mind. If you’re looking for a zipline tour in Punta Cana with pickup included, this is it — just don’t wear flip flops like I did.
