We’ve been on tour four times. The first time I did it I hung on for dear life and now I just fly off.

On our last time we came up for my birthday and wanted to do the new Ultimate course. We loved the whole thing, being out in the forest and flying across it. We loved getting up there and seeing nature. You learn quite a bit about ecology and conservation which I think is really good and the guides are fantastic.

It looks expensive but when you think about the length of the tour at 3 hours it’s not expensive at all. It’s a lot of fun and very very safe. We would love to go back, have another go and support Rotorua Canopy Tours again.

We went to Rotorua Canopy Tours for my 21st birthday and it was such a good experience. It’s definitely something you HAVE to do, a once in a lifetime experience.

The tour guides were a lot of fun and I don’t think there is anywhere else you can do something like this. I would love to do it again.
