If you're the kind of person who seeks adventure, enjoys being outdoors, and isn't intimidated by a 1,500-foot zipline, then Sonoma Canopy Tours might be right up your alley. This unique 2.5 hour tour takes place high above the ground in the leafy redwood canopy, where your guide will not only teach you a little about the forest ecosystem, but will also take you on the adventure of a lifetime.

Yelp reviewers say there are really three major activities on the tour: ziplining from tree to tree, inching your way across sky bridges stretched across the valley, and rappelling down steep cliff faces. You'll finish the tour by descending from the top of a giant old redwood via a custom-built spiral "staircase" that winds around and around the tree trunk. Once you reach the bottom Yelpers say you'll definitely appreciate the fact that you started nearly 100 feet up in the air!
