Diego and Daniel are Great - The best guides you could possibly ask for. Daniel and Diego will make you feel very relaxed and comfortable so they are perfect for anyone who is scared of heights. They will also make your experience even better at all times if you are an adrenaline seeker or looking for a family friendly experience!

Thrilling Zip Lining Experience - Highly Recommended! - I had no idea what I was getting myself into, but it turned out to be an unforgettable adventure! The experience starts with a 20-minute steep hike to the first platform, so you need to be in relatively good shape. Once you get there, the real fun begins. There are 15 platforms in total, and it took me a little while to get the technique down, but once I did, I enjoyed it even more.
The entire course is exhilarating and offers stunning views. If you're an adrenaline junkie, this experience will definitely satisfy you. The staff were very professional and made sure we were safe at all times. I highly recommend this company and this zip lining experience. It was terrifying at first, but in the end, I loved every moment of it!

Zip lining adventure - It was my wife's first-time zip lining, and she loved it. The hike up the mountain is intense. But the ride down was great, I highly recommend this excursion. We had a really good time!

Incredible experience! - My husband and I are terrified of heights and got super anxious at the beginning wondering what on earth we were thinking by booking this, but this experience ended up being our favorite part of our trip. We had such an amazing time and want to do it again. The guides are so fun and friendly and make it all so simple.

No refunds. - Don’t do it. They don’t care about emergencies and won’t get you a refund. I asked them why and didn’t even get a response.
