Traveler reviews
Such a fun morning, big recommend!
Amazing experience flying through the canopy of a pristine Nz native forest! The ziplines were fun and our guides looked after us really well and had informative and funny commentary throughout! I loved learning about the conservation efforts they’re doing, really inspiring!
The most amazing Ziplining experience you can ever get
What a totally mind-blowing experience! I went there with my family in December, 2024. From start to end, it was an exhilarating adventure, thanks to our absolutely amazing guides and the lush green beauty of the forest. Light rains made the experience out of the world. By chance, we three were the only ones on the first tour of the morning, making it almost a private tour. The tour was so engaging and immersive, involving plenty of laughs, interesting conversations, light trekking through the woods, feeding birds on your palm and a very yummy Milo drink break as well. There were 6 Ziplines with increasing amount of thrill in each; and they never rush you into it; you can take your time, which is very helpful for people who are afraid of heights. And the zipling itself was absolutely breathtaking (quite literally!). You zoom down the line, through the cool breeze and beautiful greenery of the forest. At every checkpoint, there is something exciting waiting for you and the 3-4 hours are every second worth it. Reuben, one of our guides, also showed a wave motion of the stretched zipline wire, made easier to see due to the rain-drenched rope. Highly recommended to anyone visiting Rotorua! In fact, when we followed up the zipline at other place in South Island, we instantly realized how much better this Rotorua Zipline was, in comparison. A big thank you to both of our guides and Rotorua Canopy Tours!

Amazing forest adventure!
Highly recommend this zip line experience! We were 2 families, one with college-aged children and one with preteens. Everyone absolutely loved the morning, even the members of the group who were afraid of heights. Our guides kept us laughing and totally safe at the same time. We appreciated learning about the forest and conservation efforts, as well. It was a great morning in the trees!
