Exhilarating! - had to be one of the best experiences I have had! Load of fun doing the ziplines... Our team was headed by Rueben and Mitch who really knew their stuff and kept us entertained as well lol. We all learnt heaps about the conservation work going on in the beautiful native forest, the birds even fed from our hands. An amazing experience you all need to try.

Incredible Family Adventure through Stunning Scenery - So much more than a zip-line adventure through the trees. It was a guided journey through past, present and future with passionate guides that had us in stitches whilst learning about the incredible regeneration work in action. Even though it was raining the team provided us with wet gear and the tree canopy protected us from the worst of it. Our kids 9 & 12 had previous zip-line experience which meant they were able to soak up the scenery and enjoy the ride. But again the guides were super positive and helpful and we all felt like we were in capable hands. All in all an incredible family day out Tarzan'ing through NZ's most stunning wilderness. Thanks heaps and keep up the awesome work.

I want to go again. - It was a heartwarming canopy tour thanks to two friendly, helpful and caring guides! Zipline, as well as children as young as 7,8 and 11, were as much fun as adults, and we learned a lot about New Zealand's old-growth forests and creatures! It was a tour that made us want to go again and again!

Soar in the beauty of ancient New Zealand! - Must do when visiting NZ! Professional, friendly, and fun crew. Lochlan and Sam were top-notch. Multiple zip lines of varied length. Swinging bridges and stairs. Spend time immersed in the ancient forests of New Zealand. Highly recommended!

Superb family experience - I was apprehensive as I have vertigo but the zip lines were so much fun. Dylan and Travis were ace. Whole family loved it including 15 and 11 year olds. Would do again tomorrow if there wasn’t a storm coming in.

Just Do It! - Fantastic experience and one which I would highly recommend. Our guides Jacob & Jasmine were outstanding and very supportive. More than just an adventure business, Rotorua Canopy Tours work hard to ensure the forests are as predator free as possible and genuinely care. Go for it!

Fantastic time!! - We had an amazing time! Our guides, Locke and Dylan, were skilled, hilarious, supportive to those who were afraid (me) and super knowledgeable. The whole family loved it! It was too windy for the big tour so we did the original, which still had some great rides. Thank you Canopy Tours!!

Super Fun, Super Safe W/Super Guides! - We have zip lined before and after those experiences, this one showed us how safe and fun these tours can be! Vincent and Lisa were the best! I don’t know how it could have been better with other guides! Give them raises!! Request them if you can!! This treetop experience is a perfect intro to zip lining. Don’t miss it!!
