Everyone I am going to Jaco and SJO. I was wondering what the difference in experiance in the tours between the 2. We obviously want the better thrills on the Zip Line versus the short low bummy ones. Also what about the ATV is there a difference in scenary? We will be doing both just wanted to know which ones are better at what location.

Thanks!

Well, now, Brother that's a real judgment call on what's best but I'll say this--Cary at Paraiso ATVs gives you a heckuva days tour and if you're a CRT VIP, the discount pays for almost 1 year's membership fee (assuming 2 are going). And if you've never done the Zipline thing, an excellent place to start is right in San Jose--I believe they run Zips in one of the parks there--at least it's near-in and gives you a basis of comparison. BTW, the SJO ATV is all mountain while the Jaco experience combines the hills and the sea. Like I said, a judgment call.

Yea I am thinking about the Paraiso full day tour in SJO. But from what youre telling me I like to go riding on the beach also! Is there price and time difference between Jaco and SJO. I am looking for full days worth of activities.

Thanks for the reply!

La sabana park in san jose is the little zip line in san jose, which is really mellow unless a tornado happens to touch down when your up in the trees, some really good other ones close to San Jose however. One has a breaking system instead of just a glove and it is super high.

atv's i would pick jaco but im one of the wierd ppl who love that town. Plus if your in Jaco your gonna want to do something during in day. In SJ you can always find something/someone to do.
