I have to say, I was beyond terrified when my husband talked me into booking a zip line tour while we were in Costa Rica. I am scared of heights, and the thought of being up high zipping from tree to tree sounded like torture to me. However, I can honestly say that I am SO glad that I did... More

The crew was extremely friendly and professional. We never felt uncomfortable or nervous. The runs were through some amazing forests. We saw a lot of birds, and actually were very close to monkeys. We would do this again in a heartbeat.

Proximity to resort is great. Price for this two hour canopy tour was $50! What a bargain. They also offer ATV and hiking tours.

I wanted a canopy your that my 5 year old could enjoy. Glad I found this Congo trail! They were very great with him and Made sure he had a amazing experience. There are about 10 cables I think. Only 2 hikes up. One to get to the first cable and your gear on. Not very far up! The next... More

This was my first time zip-lining and this tour really was a great start. The staff are hilarious and friendly but made us feel safe at the same time. They do a great job of training you and going over the rules in the beginning which made me feel better right from the start.....even though it turns out it's pretty... More

Price was reasonable. The highest was only about 100 ft. But, we really had a great time and guide were fun. Pick up at hotel for no extra charge.

The guides were helpful and easy going. I would recommend it! They have 11 zip-line sections, a couple that were short & a few that were longer. We had 3 kids (10-14 and they loved it), and we saw a few younger kids with were accompanied by a guide while they zip-lined.

This was a sweet little excursion. It's a short drive from the two RIU's on the beach. Most zipline tours have you wait for a group and then get a busride/tractor pull up the hill. Instead, this is a trail with climbing and walking. The one large trail is misted with water to cool you, and the trees provide you... More

Great if you're a first time zipliner. Not too high and nice to be among the howler monkeys in the trees! My boys, 9 and 12, loved it!
