FLIGHT OF THE GIBBON™
Thailand’s Premier Zipline
Canopy Adventure Tour

Our Goal is to plant 1,000,000 trees over the next 20 years. Initiated in 2008, we have planted 18,500 flourishing plants in the rainforest so far.

Our" Village Green" program supports local villages by keeping roads clean, preserving. Thai culture and rainforest tree planting. We also support a very successful wildlife re-population program involving many native species.

We are partnering with the Thai Government so we can do the ultimate good... preserving Thailand’s precious eco-system.

We educate everyone about the rain forest eco-system. More than 1000 children per year, (mostly orphans and underprivileged children) fly each year free of charge. Another 2000 children fly for a modest fee. Education and wildlife awareness are our major goals.

• What to wear?

  We suggest wearing pants or long shorts and T-shirt or polo shirt. Sports shoes or other shoes that will not drop off easily are highly recommended. Please avoid excessive or dangling jewelry. It’s a good idea to bring a camera to catch the action! Backpacks and sunglasses are an unnecessary burden and there are storage facilities in the office when you arrive. It’s also good to bring an open mind and a smile...See you in the treetops!

• How long does it take?

  It depends on the tour, but plan on about 7 hours door to door. This includes transportation, eating, getting geared up, and the ziplines. You are up in the treetops for several hours. We will get you back to the city in time to have a great dinner. If you are on a tight schedule, let us know.

• Do you have availability on the dates I am coming?

  Probably. As long as you are booking a few days in advance, we can usually accommodate you. We are open every day of the year. We ask that you book at least 1 day in advance.

• Will you pick me up and drop me off at my hotel in Chiang Mai?

  Yes! Just let us know where you are staying. If you don't know when you book, tell us you don't know and we will follow up with you as your tour date approaches.

• What if I am outside of the Chiang Mai area?

  There is an extra cost of 300 Baht/person to pick up and return if you are staying outside the Chiang Mai area. This includes areas such as Hang Dong and Mae Rim. Please contact us for with any questions.

• What's included in the price of the Chiang Mai Tour?

  For Chiang Mai: We pick you up from your hotel with aircon VIP transport and take you to Thailand’s 3rd highest peak. There you will spend 3 hours, rigged securely, high up in the rainforest canopy, flying from tree platform to tree platform on ziplines. Afterwards, we provide a riverside Northern Thai set lunch and a spectacular waterfall trek. After your trek, you are welcome to stay in the picturesque village of Mae Kompong where you can see traditional village craftsmen at work together with the famous Mae Kompong Waterfall. There is also a restaurant and coffee shop in the village where you can get refreshment for your ride back to your hotel.

• I need to change my date! Is that ok?

  Yes of course you can but please kindly advise us several days in advance.

• I'm not sure about some of the details. Should I still use the booking form?

  Don't worry, we're flexible. Just put in your best guesses about number of people and dates. We will contact you soon and at that time we can discuss any questions.

• Can children go?

  Absolutely. There is not a minimum age but we do have a minimum height of 1 meter (3 feet 3 inches) tall to fit in the harness properly. Young children are often taken in tandem with a guide.

• Is there a discount for kids?

  There are no discounts for children as although we love to have them - they often require extra care from our staff. But this is definitely a family-friendly adventure!

• How fit or athletic do we need to be to do the zipline tour?

  It's exciting, but not physically demanding. Please see our video to get a sense of what is required.

• What is the maximum weight?

  The maximum weight we allow is 130 kg (286 lbs). However, our zip lines and rigging systems are engineered to hold much more than this and greatly exceed international standards.

• What if we want to combine multi-day tours so I can bike, climb and raft. But I only want to do the zipliine once. Is this possible?

  Yes it is, you can book other tour with us separately. To clarify, we can accommodate the one day tour for Mountain Biking, White Water Rafting and Rock Climbing.

• We only have a half day. Is it still possible to do the tour?

  Sometimes we can make it work. We can shorten the program by skipping the meal and trek to the waterfall. But it cannot be less than 5 hours (2 hours transfer + 3 hours in the tree tops) For example, if the customer has a flight at 2pm, we can accommodate them by sending a private taxi to pick them up for the early promotion. They will zip line and go back right away. If needed, we could also drop off at the airport. For the private transfer we need to extra charge an extra 300 Baht/person.

• How safe is it?

  Very safe. You are led by experienced guides who ensure you are properly connected to the safety equipment at all times. We are the only canopy adventure in Thailand designed, built and overseen by international experts from New Zealand with more than 20 years of experience. We spend considerable time and money for ongoing guide safety training.

• Can we drive ourselves to the tour site?

  We ask that you NOT drive to our tour site at Mae Kompong. It is a small mountain village with narrow roads and very little parking. We take great measures in minimizing our impact there. In addition, the village heads have specifically requested guests to not drive themselves. We ask that you get picked up with our comfortable, air-con van.
