Superb day with Ranger James - We had a great day with Ranger James and his knowledge about the rainforest and its animals was phenomenal. He brought the forest to life for us. He has even met and guided David Attenborough and showed us photos of his visit. We thoroughly enjoyed our trip in the tram high up in the forest. This lady’s 90 minutes. Had a delicious lunch which we paid $12 including drinks. Great value. We will remember this day for a long time to come.

Highly recommend for a half-day trip! - What a great trip into the rainforest! You begin by learning on the ground level about the rainforest flora (orchids), butterflies, and reptiles. Then you view the mid-level canopy by aerial tram, and the return of the tram, you are at the top canopy level making for an immersive adventure. Marvin was our fabulous, funny, and knowledgeable guide. We also stayed and had a traditional Costa Rican lunch buffet afterwards making it the perfect half-day trip.

Up in the clouds - Float above the trees and spot a wide variety of flora, fauna, birds and animals! The colors are spectacular as is the view. Excellent guide!

Exploration of 4 levels of canopy height - A great experience with a guide who provides exciting explanations. We even had the great chance to see in action a large sloth slowly climbing along the trunk of a large tree. The aerial tram is an excellent way to discover the rainforest.

Awesome tram tour! - Tour was great! Didn’t have an actual guide from the company we booked the tour with and our driver didn’t speak any English but we got along well. However, Our guide at Braulio Carilla was Marvin and He was AWESOME! Great tram tour and Marvin was super knowledgeable. Definitely recommend.

Disappointing - We didn't see any wildlife while on the tram except for butterflies. Not even a single bird. I was disappointed. The best part of the experience was seeing a pack of Coati while we were waiting for our shuttle back.

The aerial tram - overpriced and outdated - We booked the aerial tram experience and were looking out for this - at first sight - excited activity. Sadly, we were very disappointed in our expectations. We didn’t see any animal or bird during the whole trip, only 3 butterflies… I understand one cannot predict the presence of animals, but this was below everything. Further, the price for the tram was ca. 250 US dollar for 4 adults, far above what is reasonable for an a activity that has an outdated look and feel. Spare your money for the La Paz Waterfall Gardens, which is a little bit less expensive but a 5 star activity. PS. The one star is for the personnel in the park, they were very kind and made the best of it.
