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!

The best zip line experience in Vail area. This is "concierge" level zip lining. They take of everything for you and it was an amazing experience for our entire family of four which included two boys age 9 and 11. At first we weren't sure if we would go on all the zip lines, but after the first one we were hooked and went on all of them including the plunge off the cliff!

The guides were friendly and took safety seriously. They provided drinks, snacks and ice cream at the platforms throughout the experience.

I cannot wait to do this experience again the next time we visit the area!

Great October visit to Alkali Canyon! Matt & CJ run a great outfit, and Simon & Dustin showed-us a wonderful time on the course! We felt safe while having a thrilling time. We’ve done a lot of ziplining in many different places, and this one is the best in many ways.

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

Summer Highlight I had the best time zip lining at Zip Adventures of Vail. It was something I’ve always wanted to try and I’m glad I had the experience at a top notch place. All the staff especially the guides were fun, knowledgeable and safety was a priority. Cannon and Chris were amazing. They were funny, charismatic and great to be around. I highly recommend this place. Thank you Zip Adventures!! This was definitely the highlight of my summer.

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! …

Book this immediatley!! This was by far the best zip lining experience ever. Our guides, Adam and Eli made the trip even better. Very knowledgeable and made everyone feel safe. Very funny and patient with those of us who were quite nervous zipping over a thousand foot canyon! And I would recommend doing to cliff jump. It seems very scary and intimidating at first, but you will regret if you don't. I will recommend this company and these guides to everyone I know who visits the area!!!!

Positive and Memorable Experience At ages 78 and 75, we wanted to do something special to celebrate our 57th wedding anniversary.
We did so by going to Zip Adventures of Vail.
Eli, Adam, Matt, the photographer and the lady at the desk told us that they took care of everything, and they did.
Highly recommend.

Mega Fun but Pricey I have to admit that I didn't expect to spend $850 for a family of four for a zip lining experience. Between the base cost, tips for the guides and pictures to commemorate the experience that is what it added up to.

Having said that it was an overall good experience and everyone had a great time. The guides were very helpful and very nice. The water and snacks were a nice touch.
We felt completely safe and secure throughout the entire afternoon experience.

The only really disappointing thing was the pictures didn't include the free-fall/cliff jump. I was really looking forward to seeing the facial expressions of my grandchildren. As we were leaving the Ranch I asked the kids if they enjoyed the white water rafting or zip-lining more. They both echoed loudly and in unison ZIP-LINING! So all things considered it was money well spent.

A exciting & fun time We were so impressed with this activity. Our guides were entertaining and fun. We were in a small group of 3 families which was great. The staff was very professional and the equipment seemed new and very safe. It was SO fun. My husband who is scared of heights even felt safe enough to flip upside down on one of the zips. We also did the cliff jump which wasn't a scary as we had thought but still a fun adventure. We highly recommend Zip Adventures and can't wait to do it again.
