What an awesome experience and a great day at The Gorge! The guides were very patient and showed great safety for us! We will come back again! Highly recommend this place!

Beth
Our experience at The Gorge was so much fun. We had Paladin and Josh for our guides and they were knowledgeable, funny, professional and very helpful. The whole experience was top notch. The equipment and course were very well maintained and both guides could answer any question they were asked. They definitely made it fun for all of us. The course is challenging because there are so many zips and the landings are a little jarring. This is due to the braking system used, but it is safe and you get used to the abrupt stops. I would only caution anyone with a bad neck or back. Other than that, I highly recommend The Gorge zip lines to anyone who likes a little adventure!

I've been to The Gorge twice and each time was a great experience. This most recent visit we had Veto and Emma as guides and they were so knowledgeable and paid close to to attention, I felt very safe with them. They both were friendly, caring, and thoughtful. I definitely would go back to The Gorge. Great experience always

Guides Emily, Ricardo, and Emerson were amazing. They had a great sense of humor, made it fun, and kept the pace going. Emily and Ricardo kept us at ease with their knowledge and experience. The pictures they took were really good. They had amazing timing and knew how to prompt the best pose out of us. Having confidence with your experience as well as knowing how to entertain and be personable makes for the best guide. They hit it out of the ball park. Be ready for speed! Beautiful views. Really cool to rappel, haven't done that on a zip before.

This place was absolutely amazing!!! I brought my son here to zipline for his birthday and he had a blast. Both of the guides had great personalities as well!. I couldn't participate with him, but I wasn't scared for his safety as the staff demonstrated a high level of competence. I will definitely be making a return myself so I can take in those beautiful mountain views!!!.

While 11 zip lines, 3 rappels, and a ball-buster suspension bridge challenges even the experienced crowd, we newbies had a wonderful time! Benny and Gerry were fantastic guides, coaches, and even therapists for some of us. I'm 65, not in the best shape, and a bit frightened of heights (well, a lot!) and these 2 guys were supportive, patient, and OK...even funny. They made the day amazing and all five of us want to say thanks again for a great time!!

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.

Fabulous time. Everything was first class. Our guides were Allison and Wade and they made us feel extremely safe and fully informed on what to expect on each and every zip! Bent over backwards to make sure our experience was super-and it was.
