Third and last adventure – Superman Ride
Here we go with our final ride for that day, the Superman ride; anyone can be like Superman and feel as if you are flying for about 5 mins. A very quick ride that you really just have to hold on tight. Hehe.
At first, the ride will let you fly backwards, it was a bit scary because it was really too fast and you can’t see your back and not sure when and where it would stop.
After a full stop, change of cables then the ride going forward begins… in this part, it was really fun and you can really act and feel as if you are flying… Weeeeeeeeeee!
Overall, Superman Ride was the best and our most favorite ride. Exciting, quick and so much FUN.
Subic Tree Top has their latest ride which is the Interactive Free Fall; this ride was not part of our package, so we missed this one but will really try this next time… Got some cool shots of this interesting ride… I think this ride will really make your heart jump but will be really fun because you’ll be in a group going up and down in the air…Hehehe. Better check it out too!
Enjoy!
Tree Top Adventure – Canopy Ride

Second adventure – the Tree Top Adventure Canopy Ride
For this ride, you should be in a group of 3 to maximize the seats. For couples, this can be a good ride for some quiet moments together and sweet chats. But for loners who want to be with the trees then go ahead and ride on your own. Hehe.
As you can see in the picture above, seats are just made in plastic like a typical chair but hanging and without any feet. Ropes used are made of hose and sealed with heavy duty tapes and wires. Honestly, looking at it, would make you feel uncomfortable, doubt if this thing really works and if these seats can really support you… Waaaaahhh… I got scared at that time and was very careful in riding and really held on those hose real tight. Haha.
During the ride, you just have to enjoy the view but if you are afraid of heights never look down! Ride between platforms takes about 5 minutes or less, short cables but waiting time can be long in changing cables. When we had this ride, it was a weekend; there were a lot of people so the whole ride took us almost 2 hours.
When you reached the platforms, you can also be educated with some basic information about these old big trees… Canopy ride guides/assistants are also very friendly, entertaining and share their different funny stories.
If you get bored with their informative signs, entertaining guides, then all you can do now is to take some pictures, just like this… Hehe.
Overall, the whole ride was too long, boring, and scary for me. I’m not really afraid of heights but being 100ft above the ground seeing only the trees, riding those plastic chairs in hose cables and feet floating in the air is quite a challenge and a bit scary.
I would suggest you try this ride just to get the thrilling experience but riding it again never came into my mind. Sorry…Hahaha.
