Our Keana zip escort team was friendly, funny and very warm to our entire family of 6. Thanks again Efron, Zack, and the funny blond young man who’s name escapes me. I don’t do well with heights, but quickly adapted to this extraordinary fun. Can’t recommend this experience enough. Giggly fun with breathtaking views. Ride them all!!!” - Reviewed on 2025-02-26
