4.00My boyfriend and I had a great time. The crew, Ben and Macy, were excellent and made us feel very safe throughout the activity. Everyone was very friendly and welcoming. The experience included three ziplines and about a 40-minute walk back through the bush. Along the way, they explained everything—how the birds live in the area and how old the trees are—which made the walk really interesting. An absolute must-do experience if you’re visiting Auckland! ☺️
INCREDIBLE

5.00We booked the EcoZip tour on Waiheke Island at the very last minute, snagging the final spots of the day, and we’re so glad we did—it turned out to be another truly unforgettable experience. The views were absolutely stunning, and the whole adventure felt both exciting and incredibly well run. Our guides were super sweet, fun, and clearly knew exactly what they were doing. They made everyone feel comfortable and confident, added lots of interesting commentary, and kept the energy light and enjoyable the entire time. The convenience of being picked up at one of the stops on the island and dropped off where we wanted after the tour was a huge bonus and made the whole experience even smoother. Overall, it was a fantastic adventure and one we would highly recommend to anyone visiting Waiheke Island!
The staff were so helpful...

5.00The staff were so helpful and kind. I accidentally booked the wrong ferry so ended up on the wrong side of the island, thankfully the staff helped me get to where I needed to be and didn’t make me feel like an inconvenience. The actual zip lining was great, wish it was longer, and the walk was great!
Worth every dollar!

5.00This trip was worth every single dollar! From being picked up from the ferry to the experience itself, every step was easy and educational. Ben and Jessie were absolutely fantastic guides. Extremely personable and knowledgeable. The 45 minute bush walk back was well paced and very educational. This will be on my highly recommended list to anyone going to NZ!
