Q: What if I am afraid of heights?
A: Fear of heights is normal and most people have anxiety doing the first zip line of the course.
Usually after having done the first 2 lines, almost everybody feels comfortable with flying through the jungle. People who fear heights usually tell us afterwards that they were glad they did the tour and had the opportunity to experience the rainforest’s great surroundings and views.
Our guides are specially trained to help you both physically and emotionally manage your fear of heights. We never push our guests beyond their ability.
