Journey to the Antigua rain forest, just 35 minutes from the pier, for a stunning eco-tour high above the trees of the lush forest.
After a beverage, set out from the Old Pump House with a walk across a suspension bridge that spans the gorge to the far bank. Once you're across the bridge, your zip-line journey through the forest begins.
Criss-cross the gorge on lines varying from 52 feet to 328 feet in length. You are often above the treetops, entering and exiting a corridor in the foliage at either end. In total, there are 13 zip-lines, three aerial walkways and two suspension bridges, giving you a fantastic bird's-eye view of the flora and fauna in the rain forest. The gorge is full of interesting plants and fruits, with stands of large trees and prominent boulders. It offers a shaded area with interesting plants with a range of wild fruits, vines, mosses and lichens.
Take home a certificate of achievement and some great memories of zip-lining in paradise.
