Enjoying

- The
Mayan Jungle Canopy Zipline -- $45 per person (in addition to your Best of Roatan tour
rate.) The Mayan Jungle Canopy features 12 zips and 2 suspension bridges. Our zipline lengths range from 90 to 1250-feet, the height ranges from 15 to 300-feet! This zipline features
the latest in safety equipment including a dual-pulley/dual-cable
system (3/8" diameter galvanized aircraft cable) and
brand new Petzl safety harnesses, helmets, carabiners and
pulleys. Petzl is the leading supplier of zipline safety
equipment throughout the world. You will zip from tree platform
to tree platform through tall jungle trees, across meadows
and from hillside to hillside. This zipline will not require
riders to self-brake themselves to control their speed as
others on the island do, and highly-trained guides will
accompany each individual group down the course. (Some ziplines
merely pass a group of zippers from guide-to-guide located
at each station, at the Mayan...one guide will go with your
group the whole way down the course.) Plus, get a free,
unlimited access to visit the monkeys, sloths, parrots, etc. at Victor Bodden's Monkey Business with your Zipline
tour purchase! This activity will take approximately 45 minutes.
