Had a great time at this excursion. Beautiful place! Our driver picked us up on time, got us there quickly. Had no issues getting our ride back and again another quick trip. Driver was kind and polite.

The Hanging bridges are an amazing feat when you see how high and how far they stretch across the valley. The height is terrifying (a little afraid of heights) and the length of some of the bridges is 100's of meters. There are several bridges to go over between jungles trails that make you feel like part of nature. The entire experience was magical and many photos were taken, yes even a few selfies.
I would highly recommend this adventure, but I would tie it into a package deal with the tram or for more adventuruous types, the zipline through the cloud forest. The more you bundle the better the pricing and the most cost-effective your trip will be.

<p>Took the late tour for this ... not enough time to enjoy all the activities before park closes. Recommend taking the earlier tours instead.</p>
