Thoroughly enjoyed this trip and v different way to see the area! The only off putting bit was having to sign a waiver beforehand absolving Whistler Blackcomb of any responsibility for anything going wrong - including due to negligence! Having said that our guides were very professional and good fun. More

Amazing experience ! I was so nervous about doing it, but the hugely professional & very friendly guides talked us through everything and after the little bunny line in the village - just sit down, close your eyes & before you know it you're flying - I was fine. Halfway through the first forest line it was fun - and... More

Really didnt find this value for money at all. You spend most of the time walking through the woods from one place to the next. I probably spent 5 minuets at the most attached to a zipline. More

Dear Valmos, Thank you kindly for taking the time to write your review of Ziptrek - much appreciated. I was obviously discouraged to read that you were left largely unsatisfied by the experience overall. As our company name implies we are an ecotour company, and as such, our tour involves more that just the pure ziplining aspect. Exploration of area,... More

I took my girlfriend, she'd never been before and though she was nervous at first we had a great time. The instructors were really cool and professional. We did the Eagle and I recommend it to everyone. If I come back to Whistler I will definitely do it again. More

Husband and I did the Eagle Tour. Neither of us had ever done ziplining before. We both loved it! The guides were very friendly. The only downside was how fast it went by. The tour states 3 hours but we were done in less than 2. I guess it depends on how many are in your group. The guides give... More

I really can't put this experience into words, but in one word it was a blast. I did the "eagle" course and had no troubles as a first timer. The guides were very friendly and informative. Spectacular scenery. I will definately do this again. Very safe. Pure adrenalin. A little on the expensive side - but just do it, worth... More

We've been ziplining before, and this was the best run zipliine we'd ever seen - and the most exhilarating! it felt safe, comfortable, and well-run. The guides know exactly what to do and how to put you at ease. The 2200 foot line made even the bravest of our friends feel a little nervous, but everyone said they were smiling... More

We did a Ziptrek tour in October with a big group for our friends' wedding, and it was a lot of fun! The guides were really funny, and had lots of great information to share. It was a really good experience. Apparently they do it all year round... I want to go again when there is snow, it would be... More
