Best experience ever!!

I was very sceptical before I booked this tour, as I am not a fan of heights, but my Daughter really wanted to do the ziplining, so I decided to give it a go. From the moment we arrived, Alec greeted us and I explained my concerns and fears and he made me feel so comfortable. Jacob lead our tour and he was also fantastic. Both guides were absolutely fantastic and Alec helped me on every part where I felt unsure and scared. He is the only reason I continued on each section. I was so nervous and he was there every step of the way. They were both incredible and I feel very happy that I decided to go ahead with the tour and that we had two amazing men. I feel so much accomplishment having completed the course now. Thanks team 😁

Ultimate Tour

Wow, such a great experience. Our guides Steph, Emma B and joined by Miriam at the end of the zip lining, were so enjoyable, full of fun and very accomodating to those who were struggling with their fears. It was great to be able to share humour and have a laugh with them throughout the adventure. Their knowledge was fantastic, it was absolutely one to tick off the bucket list.
