Soar high above the Ground
Canopy tours are one of the most exciting ways to enjoy Costa Rica's national parks and wildlife refuges. There are many tour companies that offer these pulse-pounding excursions in the area surrounding Manuel Antonio, with just as many ways to enjoy the excitement of the rainforest from a bird's eye view.
You'll begin your jungle adventure by ascending to one of several platforms constructed in the upper boughs of the rainforest. These treetop decks can support up to 10 people, and are connected to one another by a series of zip lines. Wearing special harnesses, you'll speed through the air between decks, soaring high above the ground. Some tour operators even offer special harnesses that enable you to fly like Superman between decks! You don't need any training to enjoy these thrilling rides, and the excitement of soaring high above the jungle like an exotic bird is unforgettable.
