Don't use trip advisor to book

The ziplining and hanging bridge experience was great, but can't recommend booking through trip advisor! First and last time I'll do that. They told us to arrive at 9am for a 9:30 tour come to find out the tours are at 8:30 and 11. Luckily we got there just before 9 and was able to get in the 8:30 group. Also the description of the experience mentions a superman zipline, but that's an additional charge.

Don’t book with Viator

Book directly with Selvatura park. Viator doesn’t do anything other than come pick you up and tell you to check in with reception. Had I known this I would have booked directly with the park saving about $40-50. Everything is self paced at the park, aside from ziplining which is guided. Highly recommend the park, just DONT BOOK WITH VIATOR.

An Experience not to be missed

I can see why this is a must do excursion for Monte Verde. Well organized and great team of staff who accompany you through the zip lines. Lovely views of the cloud forest while zipping along. Tarzan swing was a huge hit for the brave people in our group. If Tarzan swing was too tame for you, you can pay for the Superman position on the last zipline. The Hanging Bridges were opportunity to see the cloud forest from a closer distance. Even saw a howler monkey on one of the bridges. We think he enjoyed being the center of attention. It’s an experience that we would all do again.

Excellent ziplining excursion

Excellent ziplining! There's a lot of walking, sometimes uphills, between some of the ziplines. I should have worked out before participating. There were people of all ages doing all the activities.
