Extreme Zipline tour in Monteverde

After seeing a recent negative review we were a bit on edge about coming, especially with the recent harsh weather, but we are VERY glad we did. All staff were friendly, helpful and gave very clear safety demonstrations and instructions, constantly checking our equipment before doing the lines themselves. There were approx. 12 people on the 2pm tour, which did mean we had to queue at times, but never for long as they were swift to get us off and move on, without rushing us. The first Superman zipline increased the ante, making for a real unique experience, soon to be followed by the 50m Tarzan swing which was the highlight of our day. As there were no Ubers present, we arranged for round trip transport at $10pp which is slightly steep, but we had no other option. A star has been knocked off for two reasons; we booked under the guise we would have 8 ziplines, 2 superman and 1 Tarzan. We got the latter, but only 4 ziplines before this, without being told. There was a bit of priority put on to buying the pictures/videos rather than opening the opportunity to do so ourselves, but I guess most places unfortunately do this.

!NEVER AGAIN! Beware of completely reckless behavior by this organisation. If you want to do a zipline I HIGHLY recommend you book another one in the area!! We had a tour at 08:00, we checked in the morning if the zipline would continue because of the weather conditions (stormlike weather with a lot of wind). Extremo assured us that it still was safe. We arrived at 7:40, we got some sketchy safety instructions but luckily someone in the group explained it much better for us. The guides were a bit rude but that was the least of our problems here. After 2 ziplines we had to skip one because it was broken, 'just' a small hike up a muddy path to the next one. After the 15min hike we had to wait. !For almost 2 hours! Because of the weather a branch broke and disabled the zipline. Extremo doesn't check the ziplines beforehand, they only check it during the tour. Extremely unresponsible if you ask me. Eventualy the guides repaired it (somewhat) but half of them left after the repair because they had to go back to the start for the next group of 11.00. The guides that were left were told by the management to rush our group down the rest of the course. The double safetycheck was abandoned because there were not enough guides left. Eventually we got back 1.5 hours late with a group of frightend and crying people all with the same terrible experience from Extremo. The manager was there at the end but didn't speak english, she told us she couldn't control the weather so if we didn't like it we should just zipline elsewhere next time. That was our experience and that of the other 38 zipliners (42 total) in our group. So for us never again!!

What is there to say? Just do it!!! Especially the Tarzan is just unbelievable. A lifetime experience.

The best Canopy we've ever done on all our trips. Long descents through a super beautiful landscape. Ability to fly like a superman and with a super Tarzan swing at the end!

As it says in the name, this Zipline is extreme. Wait till you do the Supermán and free fall. If in town must try

If you want to feel adrenaline in a 100% safe way, Extreme Park is the ideal place. I did canopy, bungee, and the Tarzan swing; these are some of the best experiences I have had in my life. The guides were very kind and patient, always making me feel very safe.

We took our 6 year old and it was such a great time! I was worried because I thought she would go by herself, but they put her with my husband or with myself every time. She LOVED IT! The instructors are kind, funny and truly love their job. I also strongly recommend doing the earlier tour time, specially during rain season.

Really a super cool experience! Despite the fact that we spent a lot of time in the rain. It runs well and we did the superman and the tarzan swing too. The adrenaline is running through your body! Definitely recommended!!

Super friendly staff. We love the ride with the tiroles and especially the Tarzan Swing!

Fantastic experience! If you are looking for an adrenaline rush, THIS is IT! My teens loved the Tarzan Swing option! Long zip-lines over the trees! You get your workout in, going to the next one! It’s worth it!
