Treetop Zipline-ervaring vanuit Castries

We both loved this and I’m afraid of heights!! BUT, do not recommend if you have any mobility or heart issues. You start really low, feet not too far above the ground. Each is higher and higher; beautiful views while going up and zip lining. We saw a young tarantula, but it hid when birds showed up; there was a large snake below us, on the ground, and one of our guides went down and took pictures for us. They also take pictures of you throughout the ziplining! Climbing is intense at times; stop at the water points so you don’t get dehydrated and so you can rest! Safety netting around the planks you walk across & up, to get to the next zipline. We were the oldest ones doing it, but even the younger people found parts of it difficult. My Apple Watch showed us climbing the equivalent of 32 flights. Guides were excellent. One other person, and I, were afraid of heights. They were really helpful and we both enjoyed the experience a lot. Going up, from one zipline to another, you don’t really notice the heights if you just pay attention to what you are doing. Ziplining, even the highest one, didn’t scare me like I thought it would. You go so fast from one point to the next, you enjoy the view. You are focused on your guide hooking you up, and their directions, it distracts you from the heights (us at least). Tipped them well, for keeping us safe and helping us enjoy it so much!!

This was great fun. 12 zips in total. Felt totally safe. Would highly recommend. Don't let age put you off if you're healthy enough to do it. I am 59 and my husband is 68.

I've been ziplining many times and was never responsible for having to stop myself so that was interesting and caused some issues in the beginning but there are 12 lines so I had plenty of chances to get used to it and still have a great time! Plus the staff was very friendly they put me at ease and made me feel better about being a klutz lol. Highly recommend!

An amazing time! We did the dune buggy with zipline adventure. To prepare, be aware that the dune buggy to get to ziplining is about 1.5 hours and mostly through town. The portion in the jungle is very minimal. We didn't know it was this long or through town so it got a little "are we there yet" for some. If you know going into it, it won't be as much of a surprise. On the way there we stopped to get some great sightseeing pictures and on the way back before leaving the jungle area, we stopped to dip into a waterfall. The ziplining portion was hands down my favorite part!! The instructors were all very knowledgeable and fun! One even took my phone to get SO many pictures of everyone and even some videos going down the line. If I ever find myself living in St. Lucia, I know where I want to work! Haha!

What was supposed to be a honeymoon for my daughter turned into horror before our eyes. On zipline 7, my new son in law hit a bamboo tree that was too close to the zipline. He was knocked out cold as we stood on the platform in horror as he hung lifeless from the tree branch. He woke up and the line moved to the next platform on which we could not see. We stood waiting for 20 minutes as the guides spoke to one another (not in English so we could understand) not letting us know if our son in law was ok, unconscious or badly injured. They brought an elderly guide up to test the line to see if the branch hit him and it did, so they sent another guide with a machete to cut it before letting the rest of us proceed. As we stood there waiting and yelling at the guides to tell us if our son In law was ok, a guide on the ground was laughing and communicating with a guide on our deck. It was the most appalling thing. we were demanding to know the status of his injuries. It seemed like an eternity to get to the next deck so we could evaluate the injuries. I would have never imagined this could happen and ruined our first experience traveling to another country. We went straight to the er upon arrival back in the US, the result of this excursion ended with our son in law with a severe concussion, and fractured bones on his face, cuts and lacerations to his arms and face. Our expectation of these guides to get us thru the zipline without incident, clearly ended in disappointment, lack of empathy, lack of concern for his injuries, lack of remorse. And we are still waiting for refunds, but this cost was more than money, the cost of injury to my son in law, possible scars for life, possible nerve damage to his face. All due to negligence of making sure the line was clear. I would suggest that anyone choose wisely on this excursion, injury such as this and no qualified medical care until you arrive back in the states.

SO FUN. Our Guides Jamie (and i forget the other guys name I'M SORRY!) were AMAZING. They asked for our phones to take pictures and videos of us as we went and they got some GREAT VIDEOS. They were fun and pleasant and funny and really made the whole thing all the more enjoyable. Of course the beaches are nice, but it's so fun to get into the jungle and zip on through!

We absolutely loved the zip-lining excursion and enjoyed all 12 lines. The guides were nice and funny and very well trained. I felt safe the entire time and had a blast. It gave us awesome views of the jungle on some of the longer lines. The issue we had was we spent more time in the shuttle than we did at the excursion. We stayed at the Sandals Grande and it took 2 hours to get to Treetop and 2 hours to get back to the resort. When you have a limited amount of time on a vacation, spending 4 hours in a car seems like a waste. I am not sure if this is how long it typically takes but our shuttle stopped to pick up at 3 other hotels on the way, and stopped at them on the way back to drop off as well. I would have liked that 4 hours to be spent on the beach instead of a car.

Everything about was perfect!!!Danella was our guide and was very professional, reassuring and pleasant!!!

We went on the excursion from our cruise ship. Had a tour of the park which was really interesting, then the zip-wires! The guys who looked after us were brilliant. Harnesses felt very safe and we had great fun. Highly recommend this to anyone. We're 56 and 62 years old.

Even with a fear of heights, this was so much fun! George was our bus guide & let us experience some local treats and was very entertaining. Vee was our guide on the 12 different lines! She kept my phone and captured the best pictures & videos for us! Highly recommend... even if you’re scared of heights, snakes & spiders (like me)!
