About Thailand’s Flight of the Gibbon
Flight of the Gibbon was created by a bunch of guys keen to enable everyone access to the rainforest in the most exciting way possible. We know guests coming to Thailand on holidays may only have 1 chance. We also realized that in spite of the hype, the standard trekking and other adventure tours just weren’t that fulfilling and memorable. So, we went to work.
Our zipline tours are a unique system of tree houses, platforms, cables and sky bridges enable you to view jungle life from all layers of the canopy, a perspective previously reserved for a select group of researchers. Our original tour started in the pristine rainforest in the mountains near Chiang Mai, Thailand. But as word spread, we realized we were on to something big. Thrill seekers & nature lovers alike, ages 5-95, can explore the tropical rainforest like never before. So we opened a new tour located in pristine rainforest between the Chompoo Wildlife Sanctuary and the Khao Kheoo zoo, convenient to both Bangkok & Pattaya.
Realizing that even more fun could be had in the jungle, we created the Go Gibbon Tour at the Bangkok & Pattaya location. Think of it as a real-life “jungle” gym for all ages.
Working with a select group partners, we also created multi-day tours that combine our zipline tour with a Nature Safari in Chonburi, Rock Climbing, White Water Rafting, Mountain Biking, and a highly educational, fun Ecotour Trek. All of these multi-day tours come either with a hotel stay or an authentic homestay.
Canopy tours originated in the lush rainforests of Costa Rica where adventurous biologists devised a system of cables and platforms that allowed them to study this previously inaccessible ecosystem. It wasn’t long before this developed into a breathtaking eco-tourism activity that not only allowed people to enter and experience the upper realm of a rainforest, but raised awareness to the plight and beauty of the world’s endangered indigenous forests.
With that spirit and from the very beginning, we have redirected our energy and money into the local communities and forests that we work in. Working with the local people, the Thai forest service, and Chiang Mai University, we have successful rainforest restoration and primate habitat rehabilitation projects. This has allowed us to offer a genuine, local carbon offset program for your flight to Thailand if you book your tour online. Overall, we contribute a minimum of 10% of our profits to the preservation of gibbons and other conservation projects. An important aspect of our tours is the education of the guest by our guides. With that special relationship of growing up and being provided for by the forests, many of our guides have that deep understanding of the how the forests work that books just can’t provide. Don’t hesitate to ask our guides any questions you have.
