Overview

Twelve cables, one of them 800 meters long and hanging directly over the Anamuya River for roughly 50 seconds of flight. This trip with Runners Adventures runs about 5 hours door to door and takes you to the first zip-line course built on the island, in lush tropical mountain forest above the Anamuya River.

The shape of the day is simple. A safari truck collects you at your hotel and drives you out to the course, where guides hand out equipment and run a safety briefing at the Welcome Center before you clip in at the first platform. From there you work your way across the course. Water, soft drinks and fresh fruit are provided along the way.

It suits families and first-timers, with reviews calling it doable for everyone and well organised. Children between 6 and 12 ride only the first 8 cables. Be aware there is a fair amount of uphill walking between platforms, as one reviewer pointed out, so basic mobility matters.

Zip-line courseRide 12 different cables between platforms, including the longest line in the Caribbean, which crosses over the river for about 50 seconds.
Coffee and cocoa demoSome reviewers describe a demonstration about making coffee, cocoa and white chocolate after the course. This is not listed as an included item, so treat it as a possible extra rather than a fixed part of the day.
Hotel drop-offReturn transportation to your hotel is included.

What To Expect From The Tour

A few practical points will make the day smoother, based on the listing and on what repeated reviewers said.

Footwear and clothing. The listing asks for comfortable clothes and closed-toe shoes. That is the full packing guidance given, so plan around it.
Walking fitness. One reviewer noted that you have to walk uphill quite a bit between sections. Take that into account when booking.
Feeling safe. Several travellers said they felt safe the entire time and praised the guides as knowledgeable and professional. The briefing covers everything before the first cable.
Drinks and snacks. Water, soft drinks and fresh fruit are included. One reviewer also mentions being offered coffee, hot chocolate and mamajuana at the end, though this is not listed as an included item.
Photos and extras. Pictures and souvenirs are not included. Budget separately if you want photos of yourself on the cables.
Children. Children between 6 and 12 can only ride the first 8 cables. One reviewer described it as doable for everyone and fun as a family.

Common issues. The listing sets hard physical limits: a maximum weight of 127 kg (280 lb) and a maximum waist circumference of 112 cm (44 inches). Tips, pictures and souvenirs cost extra. There is noticeable uphill walking between platforms, which one reviewer flagged as the main physical demand. One reviewer also noted some staff speak little English, which can read as unfriendliness even when it is not intended.
