Whoopppeee!!!! Imagine flying through the air over a canopy of rain forest and overlooking volcanoes! That's what we did in Antigua, Guatemala. The first time my son did a canopy he was 4 years old, so by the time we arrived for this one, he was 7 and a canopy veteran. Basically, they let him go alone this time, as opposed to him being held with a guide when he was younger.

Canopy tours, if they are a reputable company, are super safe and just amazing! Don't miss out on this excellent family adventure.
