The Experience

Before You Go

Secure footwear

Wear closed-toe shoes with good grip—platforms and short hikes can be slippery after rain.

Hydrate and protect

Bring sunscreen and drink water before the tour; bottled water is provided but start hydrated.

Confirm pickup details

Have your hotel pickup point and full names ready to speed check-in and avoid missed transfers.

Know medical limits

Not recommended for travelers with spinal or serious heart problems; if unsure, check with your doctor and the operator.

Local Knowledge

Hidden Gems

  • Climb a final platform for clear coastal glimpses toward Bávaro Beach
  • Ask guides about local fruit varieties served at the base — seasonal leftovers change throughout the year

Wildlife

  • Tropical songbirds (tanagers and orioles)
  • Small lizards and tree frogs in understory vegetation

Conservation Note

Operators commonly follow ‘leave no trace’ policies and support reforestation and trail maintenance; avoid disturbing wildlife and use refillable bottles when possible.

Punta Cana’s inland patches were historically used for small-scale agriculture; recent tourist infrastructure has added guided canopy experiences as part of eco-adventure offerings.

What to Bring

Closed-toe shoesEssential

Sunscreen and hatEssential

Tropical sun is strong even under canopy gaps—apply before you go.

Light, long-sleeve layer

Thin coverage helps against sun and insect bites without overheating.

Keep photos safe—loose devices can be lost during high-speed runs.

Common Questions

Are there age or weight restrictions?

Limits vary by operator—check when booking. Infants are typically required to sit on an adult’s lap; some courses set minimum age or maximum weight for safety.

How safe is the dual-line system?

Guides use a continuous lifeline and redundant clips so participants remain attached between platforms; operators perform gear checks before every run.

What is included and cancellation policy?

Typical inclusions are round-trip hotel transport, bottled water, and a fruit plate; many providers allow full refunds if canceled at least 24 hours before departure.

How strenuous is the tour?

The outing is low on endurance demand—short hikes and standing at platforms—but requires balance and comfort with heights.
