Why should you go there and how do you do it right?

This adventure activity is suitable even if you've never worn a climbing harness before. The course leads through dense jungle in the area around Mae Nam on the north coast of Koh Samui. Guides accompany each group from platform to platform, setting the pace and handling the technical aspects. This puts you at ease. What remains is the real experience: the canopy itself. You're moving through a living forest, not across a man-made parking lot with a rope stretched across it.

Families and groups with varying fitness levels usually manage well here, as no one needs to be particularly fit. Experienced zipliners looking for a steep drop or a long descent should lower their expectations and consider it a jungle adventure with a certain pace. I would recommend going in the morning. It's cooler then, the light filtering through the trees is nicer, and afternoon rain is less likely.
