The Rain Forest Aerial Tram is only 45 minutes away from San Jose. It is located in a 450 hectare (1000 acres) private reserve of virgin forest that borders Braulio Carrillo National Park, one of the most biologically diverse parks in Costa Rica.

Dr. Donald Perry and John Williams pioneered the investigation of the canopy to educate the world about the importance of saving tropical rain forests.

Our engineer put extensive thought into building the Aerial Tram with a minimum disturbance to the environment and wildlife.
