The rain forest aerial tram is one of the most popular ecological experiences in Costa Rica and at only less than 1 hour from San Jose. The cable car, built in the 90s by a biologist and researcher of the flora and fauna of the treetops, allows a 1-mile journey over the tropical rain forest. The beauty of nature is impressive and with the narration of the local naturalist guides, it becomes a true educational experience.
