de Osa is now the proud home of the first and only Canopy Tour in Drake
Bay. Come take an exciting look at the Costa Rican rainforest from a
different perspective. A Canopy Tour
allows family members of all ages to safely pass from tree to tree, via rope
and cable, high above the forest floor.
The canopy tour
is an unique tour in an area renowned for its untouched primary jungles, wildlife viewing and
scuba diving. Now, you may view
nature from the highest level of the rain forest and discover its rich
diversity of wildlife.
Our canopy tour location features
9 platforms, 6 traverse cables, with one spanning over 300 feet (100 meters), a 65 foot (21
meter) high observation bridge at the edge of a
picturesque river bend.
Discover
the lush primary rain forest of this area from a viewpoint previously
available only to a select few researchers and photographers.
Useful facts and
Information:
Safety:
Guest safety is our number one priority. The Original Canopy Tour was the
first company in Costa Rica to develop this kind of system for use in
tourist applications and has a safety record second to none! We purchase and use
only the finest gear available including Petzl and PMI. Some of the rope used in
our system was specially designed for The Original Canopy Tour.
Know before you go, don’t leave your safety and fun to chance.
Average tour
length: 2-3 hours
Wildlife
Potential: Countless species of birds, white face and howler monkeys
frequent the area.
Age Limits:
Really there are no limitations. Former
President of the United States, Jimmy Carter, well into his 70’s,
completed an Original Canopy Tour in
2000. Children of all ages can
participate as long as they can fit safely into the equipment offered.
