DistantDreamz Posted November 26, 2009 #1 Share Posted November 26, 2009 Hi there everyone. Just wondering if anybody had any reccommendations for ziplining in Roatan. There seems to be a few places to do this. We are looking for the most exhilerating experience with the longer style ziplining...also how do they compare to say Jungle Breezes in Costa Rica (Puerto Limon) ??. Any info would be gratefully appreciated. Happy sailing... Pip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're up 40-100 feet over the jungle floor. Cables are very secure. Guides are very helpful. At the end you traverse a swinging footbridge to where a van will pick you up and take you back to the start area. Bring tip money with you on the zip to give the guides before getting into the van. Beer/soft drinks at the start area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare crewsweeper Posted December 1, 2009 #5 Share Posted December 1, 2009 How much do you suggest tipping the guides? We tipped the zip lines guides $5 each, but we only had 2 $5s and some singles. Our other cash was in $20s . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kimberlee104 Posted December 3, 2009 #6 Share Posted December 3, 2009 Would you say that this is the best island for Zip Lining? Other ports are: Grand Cayman, Belize and Cozumel... Leaving this Sunday and am still unsure about which shore excursions on which port.:confused: Thanks for any advice! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How long did you get to stay at the beach and did you get to use the facilities at Fosters,ie beach chairs,etc? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
