Costa Rica Monteverde Cloud Forest Questions
We will be going to Costa Rica in a few months and we are thinking about
doing the Canopy Tours in Monteverde Cloud Forest. (http://www.monteverdeinfo.com/canopy/tour-canopy.htm). We are trying to decide if the zip-line and sky-walk are worth the time, effort and expense of doing. Has anyone done this tour? What did they think? How long does the zip-line take to complete? How high up are you? Is it an adrenaline rush, or just slow paced? Worth it? Thanks for your feedback |

Costa Rica Monteverde Cloud Forest Questions
We did the zip-line in Monteverde, but not the sky walk a few years back. It
was the most incredible rush and it is not to be missed! At one point we were up really high on some platform, so you could see the Pacific Ocean off to the west. Another one they called the broccoli forest because you were so high up that when you looked down the tops of the trees looked like broccoli. I can't remember how long the whole thing took, maybe 1 1/2 hours? I was nervous before the first line, but raring to go after it. We felt very safe the whole time and our guides were very professional. TOTALLY worth it. We also loved the Tabacon hot springs down the road a bit near Arenal. "Jack B. Pollack" wrote in message ...

1/2 -3 hrs. "Jack B. Pollack" wrote in message ... We will be going to Costa Rica in a few months and we are thinking about doing the Canopy Tours in Monteverde Cloud Forest.
