All-Around Five Star Team!!

This was an amazing excursion led by an engaging and really fun team! Even the administrative staff was warm and welcoming. There were several members of the team that worked together seamlessly to ensure we had a great experience so I can't name them all but based on my experience you'll be in good hands no matter what. They were very patient and encouraging and very good with children. This excursion was certainly a highlight of our vacation and so I highly recommend it!!

The guides where...

The guides where excellent and safety was there first priority. The were very knowledgeable about the local fauna and floral. The views were great. The longest line was 700 meters and you were 20 stories above the canopy. We saw local animals hiking from platform to platform.

Awesome experience, but it is a full day even if you sign up for a half day

The ziplines through the jungle were amazing, as were the exhibits containing snakes, frogs, sloths, and butterflies. We also saw an anteater and a tapir wandering about. Staff were helpful and friendly. I wish they had been clear with us in advance that we needed not just "a raincoat," but rain gear that can fit under a harness as the odds are super high that it will be raining HARD while you do the ziplines and you can't take anything that doesn't fit under your harness. A change of clothes is a MUST if you don't want to shiver in clothes that NEVER dry all day in this climate. Also, signing up for the half-day experience means you will wait around for the others to be done with the full-day experience. They don't take you back to San Jose when you are done, and they do NOT inform you about this before you are on the bus. Fortunately, you can look at cool animals while you wait, but don't plan anything in the afternoon or evening, thinking this is a half-day excursion. Between waiting for the others and the always horrendous traffic, this excursion will get you back to San Jose after dark.

Operator response

Hi there, Thank you so much for sharing your detailed feedback — we’re really glad to hear you enjoyed the zipline experience, our wildlife exhibits, and the hospitality of our team! It’s always a treat when guests get to spot some of our free-roaming residents like the anteater and tapir. We also truly appreciate your notes about the timing and gear. You’re absolutely right — rainforest weather can be unpredictable and intense, and we’ll make sure to communicate more clearly about appropriate rain gear and the importance of bringing a change of clothes. Your feedback about the return logistics for half-day guests is equally important, and we’re actively reviewing how we can better set expectations during booking. Thanks again for joining us and helping us improve. We hope to welcome you back again — maybe with clearer skies next time! Warm regards, Rainforest Adventures – Braulio Carrillo

Zip lining in Caurilo Barillo, Costa Rica

Fun way to spend a few hours in the cloud forest. The Zipline experience was safe, fun and you get to see animals too!

Exhilarating Experience!

Safety is first. Careful explanation on procedures. Friendly bi-ligual guides. Bathrooms and lockers (no charge) to store your belongings. Nice open air restaurant. Good food and reasonable prices. Note: if you're only doing the zip line and not the tram tour, you'll have to wait for everyone to finish before leaving. We ate lunch and waited in the restaurant. Bring a raincoat!

Operator response

Dear Guest, Thank you so much for your thoughtful review! We’re thrilled to hear you had an exhilarating experience on the canopy zipline and that our team made you feel safe and well-guided throughout your adventure. We’re also glad you enjoyed the convenience of our facilities—bathrooms, lockers, and our open-air restaurant. It’s great to know the food and atmosphere made your wait comfortable while the rest of the group completed their tour. And yes—great tip about the raincoat! The rainforest has a mind of its own, and it’s always good to come prepared. We appreciate your visit and hope to welcome you back for the full 6-in-1 experience next time! Warm regards, The Rainforest Adventure Park Team
