What a great time! We were a little nervous because this was our first time to zipline. But after this visit we can't wait to go back. Cannon and Jimmy were our guides and they put us at ease and made sure that we all had fun. The experience of ziplining was a blast and the views were breathtaking. It is a bit expensive but worth the splurge.

Great social distancing activity What an awesome experience! We’ll definitely be back! Myself and a group of friends had a blast and some of us were even able to put our fears aside! During these times especially, it was nice to be able to get out and enjoy the outdoors safely with a group of friends. Yeah, you can go out on a hike or go fishing but zipping across a canyon was the rush I wanted. The owners have done an amazing job ensuring everyone has not only the best time out there but are safe and healthy while doing it! Our guides Jimmy and Matt were great and kept us laughing or jumping the entire time. The stations throughout the course had enough room for friends to keep safe distance. Matt and Jim were very knowledgeable on the local area and actually learn something new myself even though I’ve lived in the area for years. My First zip certainly won’t be the last so will be back soon! Thanks again for an awesome experience during these crazy times!

A blast! We had so much fun on our zip line tour. 6 zip lines, each more exciting than the last, plus a canyon plunge. Our guides, Jimmy and Kannon, were super informative and entertaining. Another plus was the photographer snapping great pictures of us along the way. If you’re visiting the Vail area looking for an exciting way to spend the day, look no further!

Colorado Adventure Vacation ? Me and my two grandchildren, 9 & 5 went Zip lining with CAV. They took care of us like we were family. Payton and Jimmy we're excellent guides. They thought Louie, my 5 year old was awesome. He went on all but two Zip Lines by himself. Between Vinny and Louie, the trip was a success. CAV is the best. Thank you Payton and Jimmy.

Excellent Staff, Great Views, and FUN surprises Great Views and Best Staff! Shane and Q made this experience more than just a memory for us. The jokes, service, and genuine conversations shared by them (on top of the views) is the reason I will be bragging about this adventure. Riding in a Pinzgauer and popsicles overlooking the canyon were icing on the cake! …

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!

Outstanding outfit and team- best zipline adventure in the American West “bar none!” After a rocky start due to travel logistics on our end, Zip Adventures of Vail agreed to still let us in our group even though we were late. It’s important to be on time because it’s such a terrific adventure that they can fill their slots with other people if you can’t make it but usually it’s too late by then for the company so to refund they would loose meaningful revenue- tough to understand as a tourist- but they deal with this everyday. This is such a professional outfit and terrific with kids. Our guides, Kannon and Shane, were true pros and super safe, fun and great with kids. My boys Evan (9) and Patrick (8) had never been on a zipline course like this which is rated in some publications as number 4 in the world. The management and support (Sonya, CJ are also pros and super hard working). The course is no joke, the speed, cross canyon winds and heights up to 250 ft above the canyon floor can certainly be intimidating but this crew has it down to a science, and it’s super fun and safe. I highly recommend Zip Adventures of Vail to any family or couple in the area- my boys loved every minute of it. …

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!

First time ziplining This was our firt time ziplining! Let me say....we were all nervous. Our boys are 9 and 11 and they were ready to bail. When we arrived at Zip Adventures the staff was immediately reassuring and more confident in our abilities than we were! Jimmy and Eli were our guides and they were great! They were very reassuring throughout the whole process....from fitting our harnesses to the last jump off. The course is nice because it starts you off gradually with a couple of smaller runs before you graduate to the big runs. The first couple of runs the smaller kids can ride with an adult but once you get to the bigger runs they have to go on their own for safety but we were always reassured that if they needed to they could go with one of the guides. The cliff jump is definitely worth it if you can take that first step! The whole thing was done in about 1.5 hours and we were all ready to go again!
