1. Flight of the Gibbon Treetop Adventure
|
|
| Absolute MUST try - Amazing trip in the rainforest using zip lines and skybridges for about 2 or 3 km high up in the treetop canopy. Whole thing takes about 5 hours. Very fun day out for all the family or sports people looking for adventure. Totally new concept. I have done it three times now. |

Another must try - Sunday brunch with live jazz. Pricey at 1000bht but well worth it - best buffet I have ever eaten. Free Mojitos. 5 people for price of 4. |
