Phuket Jungle Zipline & ATV Adventure: 18 Platforms, Sky Bridge and Big Buddha
Fly through Phuket’s rainforest on 18 treetop platforms, then kick up mud on an ATV ride to panoramic views at Big Buddha. This hybrid canopy-and-off-road adventure pairs adrenaline with cultural context and hotel transfers for a seamless half-day outing.
The Experience
Before You Go
Secure loose items
Use straps or leave valuables at your hotel—phones and hats can be lost on long ziplines.
Wear closed-toe shoes
Trail and platform surfaces can be slippery—sturdy trainers or light hiking shoes are best.
Hydrate and pace yourself
Tropical heat makes short breaks important; drink water before and after activities.
Expect rain; pack a light rain layer
Rain can start suddenly—use the provided raincoat option or bring your own for comfort.
