It was well worth the money! Even got to travel in an old army moggie, such a bonus. Not just one Zipline, but five! So good! The tour guides made sure we were well informed and constantly checking our safety gear. They were very friendly and full of fun facts ( inserted in a timely fashion, when a little rest was in order!). What an awesome experience, highly recommend!!
