100% Aventura
... in the shuttle. There were 7 of us who would embark on the zipline journey - or canopy tour as they call it. Two couples from Spain and me, Stef and Jeero. We chose the tour (there were at least 4 different companies) that was recommended by our hotel. It had the option for "superman" ziplining and had the highest Tarzan swing in the area. Sold! After a short 7 min safety explanation we started from one zipline to the next. All the lines led through the cloud forest, which is really ...

... the jungle canopy. Some of them were over 150 metres in the air and up to one kilometre in length. It was absolutely brilliant and soooooo much fun. We all queued up and a guy just clips you on and push you on your way.
