Afraid of heights

5.00We did the 2 zip lines with the jump off a deck at the end. Sydney & Shazz were our guides. Our own personal “Team Canada!”🇨🇦 They were professional, knowledgeable, and experienced. They were also friendly and funny! They made the experience so much fun. This was my first time zip lining and I am afraid of heights. I wanted to push myself. Without Sydney there is no way I would have made the 60ft drop after the two zip lines. I was scared to death and she encouraged me and walked me through it. I was successful. Overcoming my fears and positive support made it happen. Thanks, Sydney!
Great first experience zip lining

The Quintessential Zip Line Experience
Jon P,Feb 26, 2026
- Review from Viator
5.00We went for the full six-line course, which supposedly includes the steepest line in the world, and that would be my recommended option (even for beginners). Each line increases in intensity, and each has its own unique vista to (try to) appreciate at high speeds while spinning around. Our guides were super fun and had clear comedic chemistry, and they provided fun challenges to get the group to face some additional fears apart from heights and high speeds. Most of the adventure was closely managed by the guides, including all preparations before and after each zip. The aforementioned sixth line is sensational, a genuinely frightening drop off that's an indelible experience onto itself. Would happily ride that one a dozen times in a row, forwards, backwards, upside-down, you-name-it. We did have to walk about 20 or so minutes between the fifth and sixth lines, and the terrain was a bit tricky so do take advantage of the provided car if you are not sure-footed
Great experience!!

5.00This is a great way to see Queenstown from way above! You only need a one way ticket on the Gondola as the 6 zip lining brings you back to Queenstown right where you embarked for the Gondola!
I would recommend this to anyone. Such a wonderful experience.
