sky trek - sky tram monteverde

JAC1951

We took the tram to the top and then zip lined back down to the bottom. It was very professionally run and the platforms were large so I didn't feel exposed like I did on the one we went on in Monte Verde. Brilliant experience and for anyone nervous about zip lining then definitely the one to go for.

The bridges allowed us to have a completely different perspective. We had time to walk all the way through the paths and bridges and then return ...about 5 km total both ways...taking us about 3 hours total, highlight for us was seeing foraging howler monkeys about 4 metres away form the longest bridge...really cool to watch. Bring rain gear:-)

Great thrill ziplining. Weather is great and views were spectacular. Additionally, I always felt secure as the staff is great.

I'm afraid of heights and even though I was oh so high I was never afraid. Great staff and great harness!

We had zip lined in Hawaii, but this was different.Almost a quarter mile length 400 feet above the rain forest.The hike through the forest, the bridges, and the guides were awesome.Do this!

The hanging bridges were a lot of fun. Even my husband who is afraid of heights had a great time on them. Best Zip lining experience I have ever had. Our guides were amazing. Can't visit Monteverde without stopping in at Sky Tram

We had always heard that Costa Rica was THE place to zipline.After getting rained out the first day due to wind & rain, they refunded our money and we went back and were not disappointed. The guides were professional and very safety conscious. The zips were outstanding! This is a must!!

A Must do. You will appreciate Costa Rica more by visiting and seeing the beauty first hand. The views are breath taking. If lucky you will see beautiful birds and butterflies.

It was enjoyable to walk across the bridges but our mandatory guide did not add any value. He wasn't very knowledgeable and our other guides in Monteverde out-shined him immensely. We expected to see a lot of wildlife & fauna that we wouldn't otherwise be able to see on the ground but that didn't turn out to be the case.

I have zip lined at a few other locations (US, Jamaica, Dominican Republic) but Sky Trek was definitely the best of them all. They have a lift that takes you to the top of the mountain, where they serve a free hot chocolate. At the top you can look out on balconies on either side to look out into the distance. Then they take you to the first zip line. It is nerve racking that you are going to cross from one mountain to another, but when you are in mid air the view and adrenaline rush it worth it!. The part is the end of the zip line that instead of stops you with a mat, it pulls you up with a pulley-lever system. It swing your feet into the air and is a much smoother and safer landing. Then you get to head to the next line and repeat 14 times crisscrossing the mountain all the way down. The view of the area is incredible. Definitely a must do!

Zip lining over the cloud forest was one of my highlights in Costa Rica. The first couple of attempts are scary but after that it's sheer joy zipping above the canopy trees enjoying the stunning views in the process

If you are thinking cloud forest and adventure and safety, you are thinking Costa Rica Sky Adventures. They have it all and you may just go take a walk on the bridges or hire a guide and hike on the hanging bridges while learning about the cloud forest. You may fly through the canopy doing some zip lining and check the tram. I have done all of it more than once and I am a safety freak so if I bring my family and friends I recommend Sky Adventures all the time. Don't forget it is located on the Caribbean side of Monteverde so it rains a bit more than on the other side of the continental divide. Bring a poncho.

Two out of four had slight mobility issues and after much research read this was relatively flatIt is not but we made the trek of .93 miles 5 bridges with many stops . Our guide poked out a sleeping orange kneed tarantula from his den but no other birds or animals were seen. The flora and mostly fauna was enough to keep our small group 10 entertained. A different guide took us on the tram whichh has 3 cables open cable cars. Difficult to hear the guide. It he Mocs to our car on the way down. The top has observation deck with drinks and washrooms and returned after approx 15 min. Dress warm as windy and. Cool. Book online saves 5% and guarantees a spot. We pId in Sante Elena and then got specific directions 20 min to tram/walk and zip lining total time for walk over hanging brides and tram 3 hours. 2 hr drive from Tiliran . Breakfast lunch also served

I've been to Sky Trek- Sky Tram twice. This was my second time and unfortunately the weather did not cooperate at all. My first time was two years ago and I was as nervous as you can be to try. They were terrific and despite my fear of heights I could not wait to return and try again this year when we visited Costa Rica. Boy, the experience was still incredible, but the weather made it tough on us this time. Pelting rain took away some of the splendid views, but not the joy of zip lining in the rainforest. It was still exhilarating, still offered incredible views (although wet ones), and is still a place that I would recommend to anyone. Try it....if I can do it with my fear of heights and want to do it again and again, I promise you can too!

This was my first zipline and I think I chose the best of the best! I met another couple who said they have done ziplines in 6 vacation spots and this one was the best. It was thrilling and beautiful! I loved the guides and the whole experience. I bought a base model Go-Pro camera with a helmet strap and it is a MUST! I keep watching the videos and I am thrilled all over again. Fast, exciting and fun! :)
