Brilliant experience - Hooked on zip lining, then Ultimate Canopy tour is a must do. Amazing virgin rainforest, a sense of freedom exhilaration and adrenaline all at once. Wanted to do it all again immediately after completing the last zip line. We upgraded from the original tour to ultimate at the last minute and so glad we did.

Best canopy tour/zipline experience ever! - Amazing, once-in-a-lifetime experience! Highly highly recommend. Our guides took the utmost care for our safety and happiness, and they were fun and knowledgeable besides! Special shout-out and thanks to our guide STEF who went above and beyond to help people in our group who had some mobility challenges. She is super strong and capable and she made it extra enjoyable. Anika was also wonderful, friendly and took great care of us.

Must do! - If you happen to be in Rotorua, this is a must do. The team are incredibly accommodating and amazing (specifically our guides Vincent and Annika). They were hilarious, incredibly supportive and gave us information during our time there. We got to do 6 zip lines across various heights in the forest, which offered stunning views and a great time. Our guides encouraged us out of our comfort zone with going backwards, doing bird noises and even going upside down at the end (all of which are optional). An added bonus was the free photos you get, which wasn’t even the main highlight for us. Massive hats of to the guides who ensured we had a good time. Lots of laughs, good times and vibes.

Must do - adults and teenagers will love. - Must do. Perfect for all ages. Super safe. Beautiful but interesting way to view nature. Great choice for those with kids to get them off their phones and outside. Remember jumpers in the cooler months as is very cool up in the trees. Wear sturdy filled in shoes as ground is moist and uneven with tree roots etc. Guides were very knowledgeable, could tell they spend their free time in the area and knew the nature well. Don’t be afraid - honestly is not scary experience.

Exhilarating and informative- such fun!!! - Fantastic!!! I’m scared of heights but our guides Sam, Steve and Anika made me feel so safe and made the whole experience fun, entertaining and extremely informative! Whilst having a ball zipping through the gorgeous forest, our guides showed so much passion and knowledge of our surroundings! What a way to spend a few hours!

Zippy zipline - Our group had a fantastic time on the zipline tour! The forest was beautiful! Zipping atop the canopy was exciting and challenging. Matthew and Dillion were FANTASTIC, their first and foremost goal was safety but their humor and personalities were engaging!!! Would highly recommend!!!!!
