Canopy Safari is the pioneering canopy tour operator in the Southern area of
Costa Rica.The canopy site is located approximately forty-five minutes from
Manuel Antonio, in an area called Paso Real. Here we have a brand new ranch
house with full facilities, located next to a pristine river, this is where
we serve a full breakfast or lunch (depending on tour time). A spectacular river
is the backdrop for these platforms carefully built in the canopy of the rainforest.
The company built its first canopy course in 1997 with the
help of a team of experts who build high ropes courses in the United States
and in Europe. Our tour begins with an amazing drive through the rainforest
out to our canopy site. During the ride there are many stops for everyone to
learn about the flora and fauna of the area. Our local bilingual guides have
a vast knowledge of the area and love to share the many secrets that the rainforest
holds with our clients. Clients are able to traverse from tree to tree and platform
to platform using pulleys on horizontal traverse cables, as they sail through
the treetops of the tropical rainforest canopy, and over the trails far below.
Our canopy course consists of 21 platforms, 9 “zip lines”, and 2
rappel lines, one suspension bridge and a " Tarzan wing". We are the
only canopy tour in Costa Rica with a Tarzan swing, which adds much more excitement
for the clients. Our expert guides assist the clients in this exciting journey
through the different layers of virgin and secondary rainforest. They point
out and explain the many different types of flora and fauna; from poison dart
frogs, to the “walking palm tree”. As a result; at the end of the
tour our clients are able to walk away with a newfound knowledge of Costa Rican
wildlife.
