The trip was fun. Colby and Skyler we very engaging. They made sure safety was top priority and checked our equipment at the beginning and in between each flight before flying to the next platform. It was lightly raining during part of it so I recommend having a rain jacket because the weather changes so quickly here. We were glad we came prepared. Overall it was a fun trip.

Amazing experience

Elizabeth_M, Jun 2026

We went with our family of 4 (kids 9 &13), another family of 3 joined us. It was a cool ride to the course and then 4 awesome zip lines and a bridge. The instructors were fun, informative and safe. Great local company and no big crowds, definitely the way to go!

Connor and Juliana were...

William_L, Jun 2026

Connor and Juliana were great guides. Our family had a great time. Easy booking process and can ride to the zipline course. Saw a family of deer in some close calls.

Response from Host, Jun 2026

We love to simplify things and make them as easy as possible! Those deer have been hanging out on the zip course for a while now and just had a fawn pop up!

We had Gray and Conner,...

Cristina_S, Jun 2026

We had Gray and Conner, who were fun to hang out with. The coarse was fun and scenic. I wish we had pictures, but we have memories. On our day it started hailing as we finished super cool for a group from Hawaii

Response from Host, Jun 2026

We love making memories here! Glad y'all had a good time!

Good safe time

Ann_J, Jun 2026

Greay safety protocols followed and still fun. Kept us entertained with banter and quick wits. A little dry so bring water. The seat belts need fixing and the ride up was, not surprisingly, bumpy. All and all great time!

No regard for guests that show up on time

Linda_S, Jun 2026

I made a reservation for 12:00. I received a call from the company asking me if I could show up at 12:30 to accommodate a larger group they had. I agreed. We arrived on time, however at 1:00pm we still hadn’t left for the excursion because the other guests arrived late. At 1:10 we decided to leave.. If you book with this company, know that excursion time will depend on every guest arriving. Very disrespectful for those who arrive on time!!

Response from Host, Jun 2026

Hi Linda, We were and still are very sorry for this experience. We do our best to accommodate everyone as best we can and try our best to give grace to those driving through the park. That trip did go out delayed by about 20 minutes and we do apologize for that. It is typical not to leave until about 20-30 minutes after the scheduled start time as we include gear up and a brief safety talk before heading out. We did and still do apologize for the delay and did extend you a full refund. Hopefully we can do better in the future.

wishing for pictures

Diana_P, Aug 2025

no pictures taken of zipline event. Mya and Sailor were very fun. safety was always a priority. One member of our party was injured and Sailor was very attentive and always checking on their status.

Response from Host, Oct 2025

Thanks for zipping with us! Glad to hear our guides were fun and your trip was great. Although we don't have a photographer out on the Gardiner zip course hopefully you took our free POV helmet camera and got some cool video of your trip.

Great experience

alexis_p, Aug 2025

The ladies who work here are a blast, hilarious, and made us feel extra safe! We got more than we expected with 4 zip lines and great conversation :)

Response from Host, Oct 2025

Laughs, great conversations, and ziplining...what could be better? Thanks for joining us and glad you all had a great experience. Come back again.

💯 Recommend

Shane_B, Jul 2025

A Fabulous time had by all!!!

Laurie_W, Jul 2025

What a fabulous experience with incredible guides! Mia and Sailor were super friendly and took the time to be very clear and detailed with their instructions so there were no questions needed! They guided each participant on every tower to outline the next line and made it super fun! The ride up and back in the van was riddled with fun along with funny jokes which kept the group entertained! Will refer this establishment to anyone that will be visiting the area!! Thanks for an incredible time!!!

Well worth it!

Jeremy_K, Aug 2024

This was the first time ziplining for my boys and I. The girls made it so easy and fun. We had a great time and will definitely do it again.

Wonderful

Naomi_S, Aug 2024

Ivy and Mia were very friendly and knew what they were doing. They helped relieve any anxiety that I had about doing it. It was a great adventure and would definitely do it again. Was just an overall great experience!!

Let down

Jennifer_S, Jul 2024

None . Unable to locate it and surrounding area didn’t have cell service. Email I was sent didn’t have a contact number included on it. I was staying at Yellowstone and they stated they never heard of this tour. Could find it on google . Missed my experience

Outstanding time zip lining

Gregory_H, Jul 2024

Our guides Chance and Gray were amazing. They were so fun and reassuring. We had been on Ziplines before and the braking was the worst part. Chance, serving as our brakeman made the stops as comfortable as humanly possible. He and Gray were both top notch.

Miya and Kiana were great guides. Lots of energy and knew how to encourage people into doing something that they didn’t think they could do. My daughter tapped out after the first line but it had nothing to do with the zip lines. She was just not comfortable doing it and Miya showed compassion for her and helped her get her feet back on the ground. Would do this one again even if I had to go across the bridge.
