Two options: one with zipling and one without. This zipline is a 4,500 foot ACCT certified zipline with 7 stations and 2 suspended bridges, one with a free fall belay device (fan descender) that drops you over 50 feet into an ancient bat cave! You will then be taken to a spectacular five acre botanical garden located in an old grotto, with 30 squirrel monkeys posing for pictures, sitting on heads and shoulders, without fear of humans. A nearby sanctuary enclosure houses rescue capuchin monkeys that entertain and it's almost certain, they will do something hilarious to make you laugh out loud! You can schedule a tour, including transportation with VIP services!
