ATV Tour Jaco
Which tours/What to do in jaco(or the surrounding areas of jaco beach) costa rica?
A friend and I will be arriving in san jose mid august. We are only staying in san jose for a night then traveling over to jaco beach. We are interested in canopying, atv’ing, maybe whitewater rafting, and would like some suggestions on where to go for these types of activities around the jaco area and also more suggestions on some fun things to do in costa rica?
Thanks a lot

The most popular “Must Do” tour when visiting Costa Rica.A total Eco-Rush! You’ll safely glide high over the Jungle Canopy treetops down a series of 15 Zip Line cables and 15 Landing platforms, enjoying spectacular views of the Jungle canopy below and the Pacific Coast line. Vista Los Suenos is by far the best canopy tour in the region.
