Zip Line Costa Rica Vista Los Sueños

Our Costa Rica Zip Line Tour is located in playa Herradura next to Jaco on the central pacific coast of Costa Rica and offers breathtaking views of the Gulf of Nicoya and the Pacific Ocean. Our Herradura zip line tour is set on approximately 222 acres of land and 50% of this is transitional forest which is a mixture of the dry forest of the north pacific and the rain forest of the south pacific.

The Vista Los Suenos zip line tour is a very contemporary tour; it was designed by Costa Rican tour guides that have more than 8 years of experience in conducting Zip Line Tours in Costa Rica.

The main idea for our Herradura Zip Line Tour was to give our clients the adventure of their life, so we made some of the longest cable runs in the central pacific area while maintaining safety as our number one priority. Thousands of vacationing families and friends have visited our tropical canopy adventure with shrieks of laughter and big smiles. Please join us during your Costa Rican vacation for your own personal zipline thrill of a lifetime!

Safety Standars

The most important part of safety is the communication between guide and customer. For this reason, our guides are 100% bilingual and have full credentials from the Costa Rican Tourism Board (ICT), which certifies them as Canopy Tour Guides.

Vista Los Suenos Zip Line Tour is the first company in Costa Rica to implement an emergency break system on all fast cables. This system allows the guide to have control at all times, taking command of the cable as the client nears the platform. So whether you’re coming in really fast or spinning uncontrollably, we can always stop you! This system is particularly good when it’s raining.

Our equipment is 100% certified for adventure tours, and we use some of the best brands in the business, such as: Petzl, Black Diamond, Blue Water and Sterling! Also, we vigorously follow the manufacturer directions and care for the equipment on a day-to-day basis, as well as maintaining daily tabs to control the use of the equipment.

The main cables are ½ “, which exceed the Costa Rica standard of 3/8”. Our platforms are an average of 7x7 feet in diameter and can handle more than 15 people at once.

Our guides receive a minimum of 3 months training before they can work alone with clients. This training consists of safety and operations of the Canopy, first aid and customer service. Our training program is in addition to the official government courses designed for Zip Line Tours.

Every client gets a full explanation of what to do before starting on the first cable. From beginning to end, you will be attached from your personal harness to a cable at all times.

This Herradura Zip Line Tour tour will not begin if the guides think there is danger, such as wind, rain or lightning. They have the authority to cancel the tour at any time if they deem necessary.

Clients with medical conditions or those who are in excess of 260 pounds, will not be allowed on the tour.
