Best Canopy tour in Monteverde - We had such a fun afternoon. Fantastic zip lining, really well organised, beautiful views and so many lines. My favourite thing was the superman line, you just felt like a bird and it’s 1km long! What really made this a great experience was the guides. Alejandro, Andres, David, Erlin, Hansel, Pablo and Scoth were super professional, really helpful, patient and fun, keeping everyone in good spirits and making sure we all felt safe and had a great time. Muchas gracias a todos!

Best Zipline Adventure Yet - My family of three had an amazing experience at Selvatura Park in Monteverde! We’ve zip lined in different places before, but none compared to this incredible experience. The park offers 13 cables across the cloud forest. The view from these zip lines are extraordinary and unforgettable! Afterwards, we went to walk their hanging bridges and even saw two quetzals perched near a hanging bridge. Everything was phenomenal!

A must do - Well organized despite the number of people. Nice equipment and the guides were top notch. We did 13 ziplines and the longest was more than .5 of a mile and the final being the Tarzan swing. Incredible experience. Because of number of people zipling, I expected we would have to stand in line waiting. Not at all. There is no need to be trepidacious. The first line is a trial run.

CANOPY TOUR - We did the Canopy tour, we went through 13 zip lines, the spectacular TARZAN jump. Excellent treatment from the guys at the park, lots of laughs and very good vibes. Totally recommended!

Zip across the cloud canopy like Superman! - I have been on ziplines before - but this set of ziplines truly stands out from the rest. The area and the grounds are beautiful, and the buildings are well maintained. There are lockers and they provide you with a lock at no additional cost. Once kitted out with the gear - including the backpack that has the bodysuit required to do the Superman zipline (a full Kilometre!). Everyone was excited and the staff, like all staff I've found in Costa Rica, are very professional and upbeat. Throughout the 13 or 14 spans we only ran in to one bottleneck of maybe 5 minutes, and as we were in the trees, we were well shaded and there was a breeze to keep you cool. The Superman zipline was really exciting, being prone and flying headfirst was a bit disorienting and I've got to say that it got my adrenaline pumping - absolutely worth the cost. One thing to be aware of, and this would likely not be an issue for someone younger and fitter than I am. There are 3 hikes between platforms along the route, each hike is uphill and I found it a bit tiring. But as everyone else seemed not to care and was having a ball I just attributed it to my personal fitness. For the record I'm in my 60's and am reasonably fit. Not a showstopper by any means - but something to be aware of. All in all it was a great excursion, I'm glad I went and I'm happy to recommend this tour to anyone.

Fun, but not worth the money and feeling deceived. - The ziplining and environment is really remarkable, but so is the price. My biggest grievance is that we were convinced at the ticket desk to buy a photo package- again, with a very high price tag - but with the promise of 80 photographs. The "80 photographs" is very misleading advertizing. A teenager with a fancy camera awaits you on the second of 13 platforms. He hits the burst/continuous shooting mode as you zip down the first, short line. That's it. He apparently gets 80 shots from that, from which they make broken animation of you from one zipline. If, like our daughter, you're turned sideways and not really looking at the camera, tough luck. It was fun, but not worth the money.

Great views, but underwhelming experience - Views are great, otherwise overrated. This is the only activity in Costa Rica that didn't feel like Pura vida (even though the guides mumble it now and again). The guides are nice enough, but it's a mass group, 30+, and you get rushed through the course. The guides have to do everything as quickly as possible, catching somebody coming and seeing the next to to go. Feels stressful. The Tarzan swing is only till 90kg, which is not listed anywhere before and they don't say until you're in and paid (feels a bit like a scam, when confronted they just shrug). The pictures, again, they do take them but only at the first really short and lame Zipline. The Great big lines are really great, but sissy from that, there's other companies that offer better experiences.

Ziplining vastly overrated, huge letdown. Sloths and butterflies and bridgewalk are awesome. - Do not waste your time or money ziplining. This is more of a rushed, overbooked cheesy amusement park experience than anything resembling an opportunity to get closer to nature. Because there are many smelly tourists waiting their turn behind you, the "guides" who unclip your pulleys from one Zipline to the next are in a big rush to keep things moving as quickly as possible. I was repeatedly accused by them of "braking" (grabbing the cable with my gloved hand to slow myself down) and my attempts to assure them that I was not were ignored. They chastised me and just kept explaining that braking was grabbing the cable, and that I must loosen my grip and relax my hand, as if I was an imbecile. Apparently I was not going fast enough for them, although I always got to the next platform with plenty of speed, and had to be slowed down by them. One of them seemed frustrated that I couldn't understand what ever it was that he kept repeating to me (in Spanish?). After being rushed through most of the ziplines we came to the "Tarzan swing" glorified mini bungee jump) where we now had the"pure vida" wonderful ecological experience of listening to a noisy gasoline generator powering a crew's welder and metal grinders as they constructed another zipline tower beside the one we waited to ascend. Any animals, birds, or semblance of an experience of communing with nature were banished as we were forced to wait at this construction site for what seemed almost as long as the actual zip lining part of the experience for those who had paid extra to finish their Tarzan swinging. The pulleys scream in your ears, wear plugs. Or just don't go.
