Treetop Trekking Miami, located within Jungle Island, sits across from Miami’s cruise ports and offers travelers a unique way to see the city’s natural beauty. Here, guests can go above the tree canopy altogether for a new perspective of the city and surrounding landscape. In addition to thrilling zip lines, the park also includes challenging obstacle courses and is home to a wide variety of animals like lemurs, sloths, flamingoes and more.

 

After time at Treetop Trekking Miami, a 30-minute drive south takes you to Pinecrest Gardens, a hidden gem in the heart of South Florida. Once known as Parrot Jungle, this historical tropical oasis spans 14 acres and features botanical gardens, art installations and a range of cultural events and performances year-round. See here for upcoming events and concerts.
