Sky Adventures Zipline Tour
There are a several companies to choose from in La Fortuna/Arenal for ziplining, but the experience at Sky Adventures is one of the best.
Their ziplines are extremely elaborate compared to some of the other companies and their guides are really fun and safe. They have a 2-hour tour that starts with a gondola ride up and then brings you back down the mountain on 7 different cables. Each one is a different length and there are two very long ones. The longest reaches over 750 meters (2,461 feet!). That’s about one minute of ride time.
This is a high-adrenalin tour. The ziplines are very high up and fast, giving you amazing rainforest, volcano, and lake views.
This tour is great for children because they don’t need to hold onto the zipline cable. They can easily hold the handle on the metal pulley. Braking is automatic as well. We did this tour with our son when he was six and he loved it.

This was my daughters favorite tour while in Costa Rica! We were picked up directly at our hotel and taken to the adventure of a life time. One of the scariest most exciting things we did! The staff were exceptional and always made you feel safe!
