A great way to start a fun day on Waiheke

5.00Locals kept telling us to visit Waiheke Island, but one of the people in our group doesn’t drink, so I worried it would be boring for her. I booked EcoZip to have a fun thing planned before wine tasting. It was perfect! They picked us up at the ferry dock, explained everything with total professionalism which made it clear we were in good hands, and the zip lining was fun and easy for all ages in our group. The nature hike was pleasant as well. This is the perfect addition to a great Waiheke day! Poppy and Macey are fantastic guides!

5.00Lucia, Macey, and Frankie were awesome!! Learned about Waiheke island from Frankie on the drive up. The zip lines were a blast and we learned about the flora during the bush walk. We learned about EcoZips mission using their funds to take care of the land. Truly a memorable experience.
Unique, great experience!

In 5 sections it went down the mountain...... so fine! Also great for newcomers and very professional! Great! I'm still flashing! Thank you!

5.00We did this on 6 Mar and 3 of us had Poppy and Nancy as our guides. They took great care to ensure we felt comfortable and made us feel safe. Bring in my early 80s this was most important. We enjoyed the thrill of the rides as well as the bush walk. Nancy was extremely patient with our group, and her forest walk knowledge extensive but she kept it light making the whole experience enjoyable. Would definitely recommend this.
Great day Ziplining with Ecotours
