Great day and fun guides! I went ziplining with my teenage kids and had a fantastic time. The six different ziplines (and freefall) that we did were all different and really fun. Kudos to our two guides who made the trip really fun with tips, stories and jokes, and got to know each of our larger group by name - very impressive. Would definitely recommend this to anyone looking for a fun ziplining experience in the Vail area.

This was awesome!! We had the best time on this zip tour! My husband and I went with a few other couples and really enjoyed the whole experience. Awesome scenery, awesome staff, felt safe the whole time! They have a few special touches that really make it fun! We will definitely do this again next time we go to Colorado!

Ziplining We went as an end of the season staff outing and had such a blast! Our guides were great - they were fun and always encouraging. The best ziplining in Vail by far. Thanks Zip Adventures!

Best Zip Lines In Vail! Took my 16 year old there and loved it. The terrain is very scenic, the equipment is high quality, the guides are very engaged and the zip lines are fast!

Its close to Vail so its not a long drive. The place is well organized so you feel confident going with them. The 6 zip lines take about 1.5 hrs or so to do. They are each a bit different so you don't get bored. The place is full service so the stop you and make sure you are properly clipped in.

There is also a 65' jump, which I high recommend. Do it as a trust fall, its much better!

The other tip I would give is to try hanging upside down, it makes zip lining even more interesting.

You aren't going to grab a pine cone, so don't waste that run trying to get one (you get a free shirt if you grab one), just do the tandem and enjoy! More

Great Day! This was a great experience. We have a family of four (2 teens) and we all enjoyed the day and felt safe. The guides did a great job explaining procedures to us and making sure that our landings were smooth. The ride from the meeting spot was quick and we appreciated the water and snacks provided. Highly recommend! …

Zip Adventures near Avon A quick trip up I70 to 131 brought us to Zip Adventures. We pulled into 4 Eagle Ranch a few minutes ahead of time and I'm glad we did. After checking in we headed over to Vines At Vail for some wine tasting (liquid courage) before the zip lining.

The zip lining brought us across a gorge 6 times with each line being a little longer and a little faster. It's a smart set up so you can gain confidence with each zip across the gorge. The team that guided us was well trained, experienced and explained how to handle ourselves before each zip line.

There is a fair amount of hiking between each zip line but I was able to handle it even though I consider myself out of shape. Overall a very fun and worthwhile Zip Adventure. More

Highly recommend Our guides Jimmy and Shane were very knowledgeable and so funny. They did awesome explaining everything and did everything for us so we had nothing to worry about. We got multiple water stops and a snack during our adventure so we didn’t have to carry anything with us. It was our first time zip lining and it was awesome!!!

Great experience with Zip Adventures We had an awesome experience at zip tours! The process was quick and easy and we were out on the lines very fast. Open air truck was cool! Our three zip guides Q, Canon and Eric were personable, friendly and funny. They were very knowledgeable and shared many stories of the area. The zip lines were very exciting and safe. Free fall spot was awesome! Would highly recommend if you are in the Vail area! My family will be back! …

Adventure for all ages! Two of our family did this adventure, grandpa (70s) and grandson (15)--and they both loved it!! The cliff jump and hanging upside down were the especial favourites. The guides were funny and the views were so beautiful. Walking between the courses was a bit much for grandpa but doable. Plus when our group was late for the initial reservation, the Zip team were kind and flexible in accommodating us on a later trip. Recommend! …

Amazing Adventure My son (12 years old) and I decided to zip line after looking online for something fun to do and Zip Adventures did NOT disappoint.

Of course I was a bit nervous at the beginning but our guides Kannon and Jimmy put my fears at ease. They were very thorough in their explanation of the harness and safety equipment (they supplied everything, even the helmets). After their tutorial, I was ready to go.

Kannon and Jimmy were AMAZING! They took us out a few miles to the canyons where the zip lines were located. Once there, they took turns going on the zip lines first and then us. These two were incredibly knowledgeable, personable, and fun.

There is even a cliff jump about 3/4 of the way through. You jump off a 'cliff' while connected to a rock climbing wall pulley system. There were also snacks and water throughout the adventure.

I cannot say enough about these gentlemen and the fun that we had. I highly recommend this for anyone looking for an adventure. I have a six year old daughter that I would have taken along gladly had she not already signed up for a biking adventure. More

The absolute best!!! Kannon and Austin were the best guides we have ever had for a zip-lining trip. The course is incredible, and even the rustic wine tasting after was outstanding. Thank you for a great experience!

10/10 would recommend We just got back from a trip to Vail where we did 3 big excursions for our family of 5- ziplining, horseback riding, and rafting- all booked with different companies. Of the 3 activities, this was the only one that exceeded expectations.

I ziplined once in Steamboat and the course was fun, but this course in Vail was awesome! 6 zips plus the optional Canyon Plunge. Before we set out we all said no way to the plunge, but once we got there, we knew it couldn’t be missed. What a rush!! Don’t skip it!

The kids in our family (9,7, 3) had differing levels of fear and the guides helped everyone to feel safe and ready to conquer their fears!

Our guides, Canon and Joel, were outstanding. They even took our 3 year old down the zips with them on 2 rides so that my husband and I could enjoy the zipline without a kid attracted to us. That is how much we trusted them! They carried our 3 year old on the climbs from zip to zip. They offered to take a few shots of our family at the end of the course, which meant a lot to this mom that over documents trips with photos and hates imposing on people to take the photo. It ended up being my fave photo of the day

We felt very hosted by Zip Adventures of Vail. 10/10 would recommend. Would rebook in a heartbeat.
