Flight of the Gibbon Pattaya
In Khoa khiew area as said before. I had a chance to play Flight of the Gibbon in Chiangmai before and learn that there is one in Pattaya area as well. So, I bring my children to play here, I don’t know whether they will like it because they have never played anything with this level of excitement before. This is their first time.
Unforgettable Thailand Holidays
If you’re in Thailand on holidays enjoying the great beaches, sight seeing and dining, or plan to visit this remarkable country soon… then don’t miss the Flight of the Gibbon Tours.
Flight of the Gibbon Pattaya allows visitors to “fly” through the rainforest canopy on a state-of-the-art, ultra-safe zip-line course. At over 3 kilometers and 26 platforms, it is the longest in Thailand. Nestled between the Chompoo Wildlife Sanctuary and the Khao Kheo Open Safari, this canopy tour lies in the heart of Thailand’s best natural settings. The site will allow visitors to experience the majesty of the forest while engaging in fun, low environmental-impact activities.
You can enjoy all that Flight of the Gibbon™ has to offer in the grand ancient forests of Chonburi. The Chonburi site is located 1 hour outside of Bangkok and 50 minutes from Pattaya Beach at Khao Kheo, Chonburi.
We were taken up into the office, kitted out with excellent equipment and harnesses. We were then given the full instructions on what would happen. we then flew along the zip lines, over the narrow little bridges and down the drops to the next station. Safety was the first priority every step of the way. I have never had so much fun, after that we went to lunch back , (great little lunch too). Take this trip if you possibly can, for young and old, a different, exciting, exhilarating experience, great people every one of them. Do it and fly in a way you never thought you could.
