Zipline Tours in Tamarindo: Canopy, Tarzan Swing and Hanging Bridges

No trip to Costa Rica is complete without flying through the treetops on a zipline. Costa Rica invented the canopy tour, and you don't have to go far from Tamarindo to try it. Here's everything you need to know about the best zipline tour near Tamarindo.

What is the Tamarindo zipline tour like?

Our Tamarindo zipline tour is a half-day guided canopy adventure in the jungle just outside town. You glide between platforms high in the trees on a series of canopy cables, cross a Tibetan-style hanging bridge and finish with the Tarzan swing for an extra rush of adrenaline.

Is ziplining safe?

Yes. You're clipped in at all times with a full harness, helmet and gloves, and trained guides check your gear at every platform. Before you start, you get a safety briefing and a practice run close to the ground.

Can kids do the zipline?

Ziplining is a favourite family activity in Tamarindo. Minimum ages and weight limits apply for safety, so let us know the ages and approximate weights of your group when you book and we'll confirm everyone can ride.

How much does ziplining cost in Tamarindo?

Our zipline canopy tour starts from $65 per person, with all equipment and guides included.

Will I see wildlife?

Often, yes. Howler monkeys, iguanas and tropical birds live in the forest around the cables, and the views over the Guanacaste countryside are spectacular.

What to wear

• Comfortable clothes (shorts or pants)
