REVIEWS

Our guides were awesome, and the views were amazing! I highly recommend going if you live in the area and if you have friends or Family visiting, you should take them. It will be the highlight of their trip.

This experience was wonderful. Simultaneously relaxing and exhilarating, you can tell the people who designed it love adventure and nature. The zip lines had beautiful views and the speed that were interspersed with the walking bridge, the two rappel lines, and the little bit of hiking. The hiking wasn’t as bad as I thought it would be, but I could definitely tell the steps were made for taller people. I’ve been telling everyone that this experience far exceeded my expectations. As cool as it was to zip line through the trees or rappel like Tom Cruise in Mission Impossible, I contend the experience was made much richer because of the people I met. We had a varied group that I had a wonderful time chatting with in between zip lines. Wade and Lia were wonderful and hilarious, and their different personalities were delightful to experience. Wade was clearly very comfortable with the material, running through safety instructions and giving directions in a humorous and sarcastic way. Lia was informative and engaging as she shared a good pirate joke and information about some of her favorite trees we came across. Wade enriched the experience with witty banter, but I’m eternally grateful for Lia offering reassurances when I was nervous about the rappel line. Cannot recommend this experience or Wade and Lia enough!

Wow. This was amazing. My family (total six people) and I had the most amazing experience here. From 11 to 73 years old in our group, and no one had anything less than the best time of their life. Guides Emma and Wade set everyone at ease and ensured it was fun (and funny) at every step. I was personally impressed with their professionalism, safety, and in how much they know about the local area. We had an amazing time and even learned a bit. Recommend 10/10.

What a WONDERFUL experience. Gerry and Zach were entertaining and professional. Safety was the number one priority followed closely by fun and dad jokes. The course is beautiful. The company's mission to preserve the forest that they borrow for this adventure is inspiring. Thank you for the thrill and the tour through the canopy!!

My partner & I can't on Memorial Day weekend & had an amazing time. The views were absolutely spectacular & our guides, Connor and Emma were fantastic - knowledgeable, professional, thorough and funny. I'd never been zip lining before & they made me feel prepared & very comfortable. If you're thinking about going, definitely do it - the experience was well worth the money.

I've done other zipline courses and The Gorge has been one of the best so far. Flying through the canopies was a major thrill. When there was a clearing the views were spectacular. Wade and Trey were our guides and did an excellent job of keeping us safe and yet making it entertaining. Also, Sophie was very helpful in getting me booked for the Zipline and the Upper Green River Adventure.
