So fun!
Fantastic!! Booked the night before on a whim and they had a spot for the next day (in October). Was just two of us and when we arrived it remained just the two of us. The two guides (Edmond & Nino) were funny and kept us safe. They made the experience very fun and light hearted with their jokes as it was my friend's first time ziplining. Would reccomend!

Lots of fun
It was my first time trying Ziplining and it was fun. It was close to Marriott, and that is why we chose it, it turned out to be a good decision. lots of attention to safety and lots of fun.

Fun and well coordinated!
We were initially reluctant to do the zip line, but glad that we did. We met Shana and Luna who were wonderful right from the moment we called on the phone till the end of the trip. Our guide Edward was fantastic. We got to do seven zip lines, two hanging bridges and a freefall. The fall is a heartstopper, but overall a great thrill. This is only about 15 minutes away from the Marriott Guanacaste- really should be a recommendation from the hotel given the proximity (and reasonable price). Altogether a wonderful afternoon experience.

Two Ballerinas Trade the Stage for the Canopy
My friend Susie and I; two former ballerinas used to flying across stages and being lifted by partners decided to try ziplining near Playa Avellanas on my last full day in Costa Rica, and it was a whole different kind of flying! Susie had ziplined before, but it was my first time, so I was definitely nervous. We found Canopy Pinilla because they had flexible tour times and made booking super easy through WhatsApp and were close by to where we were staying at one life villas. Edward and Nano made the experience unforgettable; fun, funny, and reassuring the entire time. They teased us, added some extra thrills (including a little bridge shaking 😅), but always made me feel completely safe. They also captured amazing action photos that I’ll cherish forever. Ending the tour with ice-cold water and fresh pineapple was the perfect touch. One of the highlights of our Costa Rica trip highly recommend.

Why this scores 78
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Rain Forest Canopy Tour from Tamarindo: Zipline, Hanging Bridge: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Tamarindo.
How much does Rain Forest Canopy Tour from Tamarindo: Zipline, Hanging Bridge cost?
+
Prices start at $60 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Tamarindo usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Rain Forest Canopy Tour from Tamarindo: Zipline, Hanging Bridge take?
+
Plan for about 1 hour from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Tamarindo is not rushed.
Is Rain Forest Canopy Tour from Tamarindo: Zipline, Hanging Bridge worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 78 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 347 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Tamarindo, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Rain Forest Canopy Tour from Tamarindo: Zipline, Hanging Bridge?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Rain Forest Canopy Tour from Tamarindo: Zipline, Hanging Bridge suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 1-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Rain Forest Canopy Tour from Tamarindo: Zipline, Hanging Bridge?
+
Around 121 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Tamarindo can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Tamarindo and add a light layer if any part of the 1-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Rain Forest Canopy Tour from Tamarindo: Zipline, Hanging Bridge start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Tamarindo within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Tamarindo?
+
On Outty we rank every Tamarindo experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Surf Lesson in Tamarindo - Stand Up or Your Money Back!, Sunset Catamaran & Snorkeling Tour in Playa Flamingo, Fundive Catalina Islands (2 dives, only for certified divers). The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Tamarindo?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Tamarindo?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
