My 23yr old daughter somehow convinced me it would be fun to spend a couple of hours high up in the trees, we had a good instructor called Jenna who calmly explained how to get to the next level when I found my self stuck on a net (or at least I thought I was stuck!!). I'm glad I did... More

If you are afraid of heights (like myself) give it a go. You'll surprise yourself. I loved the whole experience. Again, I was so, ever so scared.... More
