5 Hours

Ready to feel your heart race as you rappel down cascading jungle waterfalls, soar over treetops on ziplines, and trek through lush rainforest trails? This Costa Rica canyoning tour combines ziplining, hiking, and waterfall rappelling for an unforgettable adrenaline-filled experience—no prior experience required.

Canyoning, also known as canyoneering, is an exciting multi-sport adventure growing in popularity worldwide. With Costa Rica Waterfall Tours, you can enjoy authentic canyoning in Jaco, Costa Rica, even if you’ve never worn a harness before. Begin by fueling up with a hearty Costa Rican meal, then hop into a 4×4 safari vehicle for a short but rugged mountain ride. As you climb over 1,000 feet, your guide will point out tropical birds, lush flora, and sweeping scenic views.

At the summit, you’ll gear up with premium Black Diamond equipment and receive a full safety briefing before launching into the first zipline. Two thrilling zips carry you over the river below, followed by dry-ground rappel practice. Then it’s time to cool off—swim or leap from cliffs ranging from 4 to 45 feet before facing the highlight of the adventure.

The main event is the waterfall itself. On this canyoning tour in Jaco, Costa Rica, you will rappel down the waterfall four times—doing it yourself while your guide ensures you remain safe and fully backed up at all times. By the end, you’ll proudly say, “I am a canyoneer,” and check this unforgettable experience off your bucket list.
