Had a blast! It was my first time rafting and first time zip lining and the guides (Seth and Eric for rafting, Tim and Randi for zip lining) made it a memorable and fun experience. We ended up having to add an extra person to our group at the last minute and the staff was super helpful and managed to make it work. Highly recommend!

A group of 8 of us came all the way from Wisconsin to Idaho Springs and had a blast ziplining with Martina and Otter! Thank you guys so much for making us laugh, keeping us confident, and most importantly ensuring we were safe! I am extremely scared of heights but they made sure I had fun! Thanks again. Will be recommending ziplining in Idaho Springs for sure.
