Full description
Clip on and get ready for some serious zip lining. A full briefing is given beforehand at the local partner's training center by highly-skilled zip-lining guides. Feel the rush on over one mile of zip-lining action. Soar through the jungle, rain forest, and across a Caribbean river. Guides will be at each platform to steady you and assist you onto the next line. This adventure promises fun for all ages and all adrenaline-seekers.  After the zip-lining, head to Monkeyland. Listen to the sounds of nature while keeping an eye out for the cute little squirrel monkeys that call this natural environment home. Trained staff will give you a plate of fruit you can offer to the monkeys. These cheeky, friendly creatures love shiny objects so hold on to your belongings. This is an awesome opportunity to get up close with these lovable animals. At the end of the tour, you'll have adequate time to purchase memorabilia to remind you of this special day.

Really nice tour guide David, but it was 99% in English. Expected a little more from the ziplines, although there were 7 of them, they were relatively short and not particularly high. 2-3 for longer would be much better. Monkeys were cute. With the pick-up at the hotel, the trip takes much longer, more like 7-8 hours.

Action-packed excursion with lots of fun!

We spent a wonderful day on the zipline and in the Monkey Jungle! The experience is particularly worthwhile for active people. We got an excellent introduction to the safety instructions and the zipline train. The guides were really all very, very competent, nice, spoke English very well and always tried to make everything right. A really great adventure! Furthermore, all of the income from the Zipline Railway will go to a charity project to maintain Dominican health. Another experience was visiting the Monkey Jungle. Animal lovers get their taste. Free-running rabbits, turtles, monitor lizards, geese and much more. The squirrel monkeys that climbed around on our heads and shoulders and we were allowed to feed them was a great experience. Here, too, the project campaigns for abused animals. Great day, worth an experience, again at any time, great organization + projects

It was a very, very memorable experience!

Started off with some ZipLining. The guides were all fun to be around, joking around and having a good time, while still being very professional when it comes to safety while riding zip lines. The 53ft drop was intimidating at first, but great once you got off the platform! I even wanted to walk up and do it again. The monkeys were simply amazing. Nothing like having 3 or 4 different squirrel monkeys crawl around on your arms and head while trying to eat food of a plate you're holding. Quite a memorable experience overall!
