can’t recommend this enough
Anna_E
, Jun. 2022
I could not recommend this experience enough! The staff make you feel comfortable and safe the entire time. The safety briefing was super informative in a fun way so kids would definitely be able to follow along. I was also super nervous (afraid of heights) and by the second zip line I was laughing along with everyone else. They pushed me out of my comfort zone in the best way. The staff are also super personable and make an effort to learn your names and chat with you while you wait to go across. They are the ones who made this experience worth while! So if you want a safe zip lining experience that’s fun for all ages go here! And maybe you’ll be lucky enough to see a sloth like we did!
Best Experience Ever!!!

The guides Diego and Dillan were so great , not only were they the nicest and very generous, respectful ,and enthusiastic but extremely safe, they made sure we felt safe and made that the number one priority of the experience . Extremely dope guys who truly gave us the best experience in Costa Rica , hope to come back soon and request for them if you get a chance ! Also at the steak house next door Carlos was a gem, truly best customer service and great food , cooked perfectly medium rare , juicy steak ! And make sure to ask about the Portebello mushroom dish topped with cheese and wine it was ridiculous ! Thank you all for the greatest experience I could’ve hoped for !
Put it on your itinerary right now. It’s a MUST!

This was AMAZING!!!!! We had the best tour guides (Alejandro and Richy) who took us through the tour. They pointed out so many cool things that we otherwise would have missed. The zip lines were safe, secure, and so fast!! It was just my mom and I which doesn’t happen very often according to our guides, so we got lucky on this trip with a private tour! Highly recommend and an absolute must on a trip to Costa Rica!
So much fun!

Indy and Dylan were amazing tour guides! My friends and I had so much fun hiking and zip lining in Costa Rica. They helped us immensely and educated us on random facts about San Jose. We will definitely be doing this excursion again when we come back.

Diego, Juan and Richie were fantastic, very focused on safety and made me feel comfortable (honestly, I was terrified on a few of the lines). They understood my hesitance and gently helped me overcome my fears. These guys are true professionals and rest assured you are in competent hands. Bravo!
Great experience!

The staff and guides were very friendly and enjoyable experience, if you’re running out of time and Costa Rica and I have to leave at a San Jose this is a perfect little last day trip to go on not too far out of San Jose. Had a great time zip lining and then add a beautiful steak dinner too at the restaurant.
Carpintera Zip Line!

I would highly recommend booking this excursion. The team were absolutely fantastic keeping everyone safe and entertained the entire time. I always felt safe and enjoyed the experience immensely. The initial hike to the first platform is a good 20 minutes up steep terrain so best to keep that in mind for anyone with mobility issues.
Unforgettable

First time zip lining and I must say Alejandro, Ricardo, and Dani made it an unforgettable one. It was great from beginning to end. They made you feel comfortable and had lots of patience. Definitely would recommend them to anyone coming to Costa Rica.
Flying through the Rain Forest
Rachel_W
, Sep. 2021
Amazing experience. It is a lot of work, but extremely fun. You walk about a mile up the mountain. Steps, mud - it's a rain forest :) You zip on 13 lines. One of them was so long and fast. It was great. You look over the valley and Rappel twice before walking back down the mountain. (A shorter walk this time).
The guides were fantastic and they all spoke English very well, some better than me and it is my native tongue. Thank you especially to Danny, Alejandro and Diego for the extra special attention.
Very fun

We perform checks on reviews
You can only submit a review or rating of an experience to Viator if you were the person who made the booking through Viator. Before publication, each review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information for each of the following criteria: who, what, how, and when. If the system detects something that contradicts our publication criteria, the review is not published. When the system detects a problem with a review, it may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site. In some cases, we will also send you an email asking you to validate your review before it is published. All you need to do is click on the link provided in the email. After publication, our team checks each review reported to it as not meeting our publication criteria. Tripadvisor reviews that appear on the Viator site are subject to the same checks and moderation processes as set out above. It is not necessary to have booked an experience through Viator (or Tripadvisor) to submit a review of an experience to the Tripadvisor site.
