Canopy Tours in Costa Rica

Canopy Tour

The Costa Rican rain forest is an incredibly lush, vibrant paradise and there’s no better way to experience it than zooming through it on a thrilling Canopy Tour. A typical Canopy Tour with Green Frog Adventures begins with an exciting horseback ride taking you deep into jungle. This ride will include several river crossings, brisk trots down twisting trails, and ample time to observe the exotic plants and animals in the surrounding rain forest.

We eventually arrive at the first platform of the tour located on a secluded hillside with a spectacular panoramic view of the surrounding jungle. At this point we’ll trade in our horses for a, shall we say, less conventional mode of transportation. We hope you aren’t afraid of heights because we’re headed up, way up, into the canopy trees. Canopy trees sour high above the rest of the forest and are home to an entire ecosystem full of exotic plants and animals that spend their entire lives up in the heights.

A cable or “zip-line” reaches out from the hillside to the first platform high in the nearest canopy tree. So clip in and zoom down at heart stopping speeds or hit the breaks for a more leisurely ride. We’ll spend the rest of the afternoon zipping for platform to platform, tree to tree all the while enjoying the perfect mix of adrenaline and awe inspired wonder as we frolic with the jungle’s high altitude inhabitants.
