Rode lift to top and did all zip lines. - Great group of people. Well organized. Felt very safe and secure in all aspects of the operation. Not rushed at all . Beautiful views of the city and the surrounding areas.,

Zip line must do! - I absolutely loved this experience. If you’re a beginner or someone that has to zip line in every country you visit this was totally worth it. I highly recommend you purchase your package before visiting rather than at the front. The main reason is you will need to sign waivers and it moves you through the process faster. When you do get to the gate up front you just need to show them your invoice and it was so easy from there. Once we got our wrist bands before heading up into the park we were able to use the restroom right across the ticket booth.
We walked through the museum where it was so informative about the history. Once we got through there you would walk up to the sky lift where it takes you to your first stop - sentry hill zip lines you will be given all the gear you need to zip line including a hairnet to use under your helmet. There are a few lockers but I imagine during peak season there may not be much available. There is quite a bit of stairs and hiking to get to each platform for this experience. I only say this because it’s tough to do when it’s hot and minimal shade!
After sentry hill we were able to head up to where the Flying Dutchman was at but before doing that we took in the beautiful views and a drink at the bar, and made a restroom stop. A small wait before getting on the zip line but so worth it. I’d do this again. If after you do the sentry hill zip line or at anytime you feel like you don’t want to do the Flying Dutchman you can take the sky lift down.

Great fun!! - Canopy Ziplines were a nice precursor to the big finale And also the bar at the top was very nice especially having just adults there made it very comfortable and gave some people that extra liquid courage they needed to complete the task!

Awesome Ride on the Dutchman! Get there early. - Really fun experience. The Zip Line looks pretty intimidating, but it really is a smooth, not-scary-as-it-looks ride down. TIP (if you're not in a cruise group): Get there before 11am opening if you can, and scan the QR posted on all the walls to complete the waiver online. Then, go ahead and get in line. Once they open at 11am, it will be a slow line unless you're in the front. Check-in is otherwise not very organized. BUT, despite the check-in experience, it's worth the visit! Also, don't worry about buying the video of your ride in the gift shop - they'll email you a link, too, if you want it. We would happily do it again!

St. Marteen - Up high, All the way Around and Down (full Speed) - This was an amazing experience: unforgettable and well worth every effort and every penny. Whether you have what it takes for the Flying Dutchman or the Sentry Hill zipline or just the Sky Explorer and Museum and 360 views, please make the effort and do this if you are in St. Marteen.
To begin, the Sky Explorer is really nice: you wont be scared - its secure and you are taken care of by the attendants. From the moment this ride begins, you will gasp in amazement at the sheer beauty of St. Marteen. I underestimated it.... but the landscape of mountains, coastline, landscape will take your breath away.
If you dare: do the Flying Dutchman. If you are an oldie and want to do the Sentry Hill, its still ok. But the Flying Dutchman is the thrill seeker. The hike up is a good cardio test, so try it out.
And of course at some $129 US it is value for money/ there are also less expensive options depending on your appetite. Book before hand on line - you have to reserve a spot or for a family. You can do so from your hotel concierge or online. You may think its a lot, but once you see what's involved, you will think differently. had no issues with staff as they were all courteous and helpful.
The Museum had some nice souvenirs quite reasonably priced. And of iguanas will get your attention.
Oh btw, please resurrect your restaurant with some good food.. and drinks (and I don't mean iguana stew (LOL).
I wish you all the best.

Mediocre at best. - Our reservation said to arrive between 11-12. We got there at 11. There was a long line under the covered area. However, it took 1 hour to move maybe 15-20 feet in the line. We book reservations a head of time and it didn’t matter because everyone was in the SAME line. Once we got to the counter, it look 60 seconds to get our wrist bands. They were definitely NOT organized!!! It took 1.5 hours to do the chairlift, the 4 zip lines and Flying Dutchman. Nice view from the top. Half the staff were nice, the other half was cold. Once we were done, there were no taxis to take back to the boardwalk. We actually ended up walking (NOT recommended in the heat), which took about 40 minutes (including one wrong turn).

Beware of carrying cage and important items - I had a great time despite my issue. Most of the staff were attentive. I give the rating a 3 out of 5 due to money being stolen. A hundred dollars was stolen. At least some was left to pay my taxi driver. While I was doing the zip line tour we have to put our items in lockers and I am 100 percent sure that is where it occurred. I advise everyone to have a lock or to carry all cash and cards with you when you are doing the tour. Otherwise it may be stolen by staff. It was unfortunate that it did happen. All I can hope is that the money stolen was needed and put to good use.

Overpriced and Unmet Expectaions - I paid $675 for my family to ride the Ziplines and the Flying Dutchman. First of all they over scheduled people. There was an hour wait for the ziplines which we didn't have so we forfeited them and just went to the Flying Dutchman where we waited 2.5 hours in the blazing heat. They also wouldn't let us use our own GoPro. I feel like this is just a tourist trap waiting to take your money. After a horrible experience they expected a tip and again wanted us to pay for their pictures. No way!! I had already overpaid for an awful and disappointing experience. I would not recommend this to anyone.
