A non-life-threatening medical event put us in the extremely competent hands of this responsive, professional and caring staff. This occurred on the incline walk towards stop 6. Guides and staff were available and responsive. Medical staff were dispatched and provided immediate on scene assistance, then transport to their medical station. A more thorough assessment was made and treatment provided. Emergency medical technician and his manager were amazing, putting us at ease in an uneasy situation. The tech was consulting with a physician by phone during treatment. The only disappointment was the physicians directive not to continue the walk. These are the behind the scenes infrastructures we don't often see (fortunately), but know at this park they are fully equipped, trained and know exactly what they're doing. We're extremely grateful to this amazing team!

Nice park with cool hanging bridges. But if you come without a guide definitely go before 7:30 to get as few people as possibke. After that it gets too full

This entailed a good, pleasant walk and several hanging bridges which were fun. We saw some wildlife but, as the weather was a little damp, I expect they were mostly in their homes watching tv. I enjoyed the experience very much.

This was so much fun. I 100% recommend. The first bridge was the highest so pretty steep walk but sooooo gorgeous on the bridge. Takes about two hours but one of the bridges was closed so took about an hour and half. Overall, amazing.

Buy tickets online in advance. The tour is a loop in one direction only. We saw monkeys and beautiful nature.

What a great experience. This is definitely a tour you can do self guided. All of the nature surrounding this tour is amazing. The bridges were cool to cross.

We loved going at our own pace (fast... lol) especially since it was pouring rain the whole time and we finished in about an hour. We slowed down going over the bridges to admire the beautiful scenery. We were able to pass the big tour groups with ease lots of excuse me and thank you's in multiple languages lol. The views are breathtaking! Bring comfy shoes and rain gear!
