To begin your Cave & Monkey Zipline Experience our Discover Barbados short introductory film will take you on a virtual journey across the island. You will then traverse deep into the underground as our tram tour takes you into a centuries-old subterranean world filled with picturesque streams, waterfalls, and stunning stalactite and stalagmite formations. Now you’ve seen Barbados from below, it’s time to grasp the views from high above so get geared up, and go take some thrilling zigs and zags on our Monkey Zipline, CHUKKA’s adrenaline-pumping treat in Barbados! Not only does this thrill seeker take you in multiple directions, it has you soaring just 100 feet above the ground.
Below, above and now on top. It's time to take a relaxing stroll along our nature trail where you reconnect with nature and learn about the local flora and fauna whilst capturing those memories at our photospots along the way. Your feathered friends await you in our bird aviary. Take the opportunity to meet the different species of birds that now call Harrison's Cave 'home'.
