You have to do this! We took our 8 yr old since he could not ski this trip due to a broken leg that was recovering. He had on a walking cast and had been cleared for sports as long as they did not involve high impact on leg(such as skiing skating). The guides were fantastic- sharing so much information... More

My husband and I went on the Mammoth Tour - the 5 hour, 10 line trek. The guides were fantastic, lunch was delicious (and huge!), and the ziplining was superb. We'd ziplined in Hawaii before, but this set up was much more luxurious. The ziplines have brakes at the end controlled by the guides, so the landing is gentle and... More

What a wonder full experience. I talked a friend of mine into joining me and he was pretty nervous. The staff was wonderful as we were checking in and explained everything to him. Our guides were great and it was just the two of us on our tour. The ecology aspect was very interesting and made the trip much more... More

Our 6 kids all decided to do the Eagle tour and each mom thought it best for them to experience it during the day light hours. It combines walking and zip lining and I know the kids thought the zip lining was amazing! they thought the lines should have gone on forever....It is expensive but hanging upside is quite the...

I had been ziptreking before in Costa Rica. I thought that was great. Whistler was just as good. We did the middle of the road tour not for beginners. The ziplines were perfect, fun and had a good variety of thrilling to scenic. On the longest highest zipline, I even saw a bear below. Everything was super safe, our group... More

We had a morning off from skiing before our journey home. Booked the Eagle tour, took around 2 hrs. Short van ride to the start, some walking though deep snow. The ziplines are all fantastic, great views, not too scary as everyone just clips on and goes, The guides give a good History of the area and chat about wildlife... More

This was a great 3 hrs. We went on the Eagle tour which was really great, we had lovely tour guides telling us lots of interesting facts. We felt totally safe and it was an exhilarating experience. We took our 10yr old daughter and she didn't baulk at any time, even on the 2000' line. We were told this wasn't... More

Do not do the winter night-time zip line tour unless you want to feel like a freezing hostage at an ecological lecture. In hindsight not doing night-time ziplining seems obvious, since at night you can't see any of the view, there are barely any twinkling Christmas lights, and it is freezing! I still gave it two stars because in the... More

Dear Parity, First off, I wanted to thank you for taking the time to write your recent review. I was obviously quite disappointed to see how unimpressed you were with the tour in general, and that the whole experience left you clearly underwhelmed. We haven’t received many reviews this lopsided before, but nonetheless; we truly appreciate your perspective and take... More
