There are a few options for ziplining in Monteverde, so we read the reviews here and decided to go with The Original Canopy Tour. We made the right choice!!! It was the highlight of our Costa Rica trip!!! We have two kids (girls) 12 & 8 and they both enjoyed every minute of it. The company offers a free pickup, but since we had a car and wanted to do the bridge walking after ziplining at another place, we drove there on our own. They are very flexible and since we came earlier, we just went right away. The staff is really professional and knowledgeable, and did everything very safely. My recommendation is that you wear longer shorts (to your knees) or light pants and T-shirt with light long sleeve shirt on top. It was a bit breezy, so we all wore our long sleeve shirts. The harness sits at mid thigh, so that's the reason for longer shorts (to prevent the rubbing) if you plan on wearing a shorts. The mosquitoes were not a problem in December. We had a belt where we brought a bottled water which we did use. Bring smaller cameras (or GoPro) We had two, so we gave one to the guide, who took pictures of us and a movie, and I used the other one. Someone mentioned in the comments below that they took pictures and they had an option to buy it, so I think they did not have their camera with them. The other family that was with us in the group also had a camera and each of the guides took one and concentrated on that family with pictures. While we were climbing the mountain to Tarzan swing, the guide stopped a few times and while we were catching the breath, he was talking about the flora and fauna in that area. Tarzan swing was awesome! You really fly high and far, swing a few times before they catch you by your feet. After the Tarzan swing, we started on a few shorter ziplines to get used to it, and then it was pure enjoyment. The views are phenomenal! In the middle of the tour, there is an option of rappelling down and climbing up the hollow tree. I recommend you do that, it's quite a fun experience, but requires you to be mildly fit, since you do have to climb up the ladder all the way up back to the platform. The second to last zipline is the best of all! It's ~0.5 mile long and high above the canopy with the view of the Pacific. Fantastic thrill! Our youngest had to ride with a guide on that one, since she is not heavy enough to go on that one by herself. All in all, we all had an unforgettable experience. We highly recommend this tour!!!
