What travelers are saying
The guides were great and kept things fun. We had Lara, True and Brooke for our day and they did a good job with our group. The course was fine and since it was cold I don't think I would have wanted it to go any longer but it did feel short for the money spent. I was glad they had the adventure park portion as only 5 zip lines would have been too few. Everything went smooth though with pick up, tour and drop off so no complaints at all. It also felt safe and the equipment seemed to be good. Just compared to other zip line courses, this one was not 5 star.
Everything about this experience was fantastic!!
Cami and Caroline were great as our guides. A couple of us were nervous, and they knew exactly how to put them at ease. We had a great experience.
An absolutely great experience. Our kids said it was their favorite excursion of the entire trip.
This was a great trip. The guides were awesome at making everyone feel comfortable. The zip lines were high enough for my teenagers, but did not frighten my 8yo, or me. The PE arrival time lead to some confusion since it told me to get there 30 mins before the actual start time, so arrive early, but not that early. Pick up was easy.
My crew had the time of their lives. A first for all of them, and they really enjoyed the adventure and scenery. They especially got a kick out of Guide Darcy, and they appreciated the camaraderie that went along with professionalism of the entire staff.
Our guides Aidan, Shad, and Dilan were awesome and the experience felt fun and safe.
So fun!
