Excursion details
On this excursion of approximately four and a half hours, you’ll be getting to know a little piece of the Veragua Rainforest via an exciting form of transport: zip-line. The adventure begins with a transfer drive of around one hour to the Veragua Rainforest eco-adventure venue, where your zip-line canopy tour will take place.
On arrival you’ll be fitted with all the necessary equipment and given a briefing from your guide, lasting around 20 minutes. Then get ready to explore the rainforest canopy for approximately one hour and 45 minutes. Your journey takes place across a zip-line network connecting 11 observation platforms, providing expansive views of the tropical scenery all around you.
All sorts of mammals and birds inhabit the rainforest, so keep a close eye on your surroundings as you zoom along the zip-lines, although wildlife sightings cannot be guaranteed.
After the zip-lining action is completed, there’s around 25 minutes to take off your equipment and – time permitting – do a spot of shopping at the venue before the drive back to the port, lasting around one hour.
