About this activity
Itinerary
After choosing your costume, (superheroes, bacon, mario, duffman, you name it!) Our experienced guides help you put on the harnesses and other safety equipment. Once ready we give detailed instructions and a demonstration of how to participate in the activity. We then let you practice on our small wall inside our premises. You can practice as many times as you want until you feel comfortable and competent to take on the big wall.
One of your guides will go down first to show you what it's all about. 2 other guides will help get you in the system, always double chekcing all points. There are 2 ropes in our system, and 3 brakes. You have your own brake and the guides have 2 others, so it is 100% safe. At the edge you begin your descent as you lean out the door with 50m of adrenaline beneath you. Small steps at first give way to hops and jumps as you gain confidence and speed. About 20 m from the bottom your guides stop you for the ultimate rush - Free fall! Let go, jump and try not to scream! We highly recommend going twice as the 2nd time around you can go even faster and with more confidence. 100% safe, 100% fun, 100% adrenaline! Book now!
Stop At:
• Urban Rush Bolivia, Calle Potosi 920 Hotel Presidente, 17th floor, La Paz Bolivia

Reviews
The staff were very knowledgeable and patient with me. Luckily I was there when it wasnt super busy so they all participated towards putting me at ease. This is something I'd be willing to do twice or more! The fact they concentrated on safety and walking me through the process to assure me shows their level of professionalism.
