We did the Almonds & Corals almost 2 years ago---it was WONDERFUL!!!!! We're in the over 50 crowd & it was safe, fun & I highly recommend it. :D

We did the Almonds & Corals with Oscar Brown this past April. It was one of the highlights of the cruise. We too are in the 50 year old group and we both loved it.:D Go for it! I'll bet you'll be glad you did.

We did Almonds and Corals last year and it was a hoot! I highly recommend it. DH is 54 and I'm 41 and we just had such a great day with them, it was a definite highlight of our trip. We booked directly with Almonds and Corals.

Book it through Oscar Brown. He's a local tour guide who will give you a day to remember. You will do so much more than ziplining and really get to see the port.

Thanks for posting the link to the ziplining video. We are on the 4/24 Galaxy to Panama Canal & were just beginning to research ziplining. Looks like an adventure.

We (late fifties) did the ziplining thing in Costa Rica on Nov 27th, with Charlie Soto, and had agreat time. You can see my own account at http://www.angelfire.com/hi5/joni97/costarica.html or our group pictures at http://www.nanada.com/panamaniacs/cruisepix.htm

You've confused the issue a bit with the choices.

 

We'd done Almonds and Corals on a prior trip with Oscar Brown, and this time, he took us to Brisas instead. I don't know where your 2nd option takes people. As far as I know, those are the only two facilities on the Atlantic side, but understand that there is yet another on the Pacific side.

 

So while I voted for Almonds and Corals, I was unable to vote for Brisas as well, even if that's where the other outfit goes.

 

BTW, I preferred Brisas.

Absolutely. We had a grand time AGAIN this trip. He's using a VERY nice restaurant that'd be worth a trip in itself, and has moved to Brisas for the zipline.

 

We continue to book through Oscar as opposed to another party who once worked for him and took his email list of customers on the way out the door... but both are known for providing a good tour.

 

You can contact Oscar (his sister Carol, actually) at cbrown@costarricense.cr

 

She will send back a list of possible tours, but you're probably looking for what they refer to as the #2 tour.
