    Amanda was great in assisting us when we had a snafu on arrival time. Team was professional and fun, we loved the experience even if we were terrified at the first zip line! Angela was great in assuring us and giving us confidence to relax and have fun! The equipment and infrastructure was impressive. We were so happy that we did this and would highly recommend it!

  • One of the highlights during our stay in Kaikoura. We definitely recommend to everyone.

    Our tour guides (Olive & Ethan) were fantastic! The weather wasn’t on our side unfortunately but what we were lacking in views, they made up for with their fun and engaging approach. We look forward to returning on a day that’s a bit brighter :)

    We really enjoyed the experience. Angela and Ancy, our guide/instructors were exceptionally good, making the experience even more enjoyable. They put us in ease right from the beginning and the apprehension of ziplining for the first time was taken away by their expert and friendly demeanor. I would highly recommend this to anyone wanting a great experience.

    This trip was probably the best thing we have done in the South Island A lot of people come for the whales but the forest and the Ecozip is really special and would do this again and again if we could! Organised trip and informative guides who are passionate about what they do We had a great time whizzing down the ziplines in an amazing part of the world. If you get the chance to do this trip - go for it!

    Great outing. Very organised and the staff are brilliant. The trip will suit the daredevils and the less adventurous people. We felt we were in safe hands being very professional. It was the highlight for our ten yr old daughter and an achievement for her mum! Highly recommend.ed
