This was a fun and exciting experience! Our guides were John and Emily and they did a fantastic job! We had ziplined before, but our daughter never was able to get enough speed to make the end of the line. At the Gorge she didn't have that problem at all! Between the angle and build up of speed she made the end of every line! The rappels caused our daughter a little stress, but Emily did a great job helping her face her fear and realize how safe and fun it was!

I've done other zipline courses and The Gorge has been one of the best so far. Flying through the canopies was a major thrill. When there was a clearing the views were spectacular. Wade and Trey were our guides and did an excellent job of keeping us safe and yet making it entertaining. Also, Sophie was very helpful in getting me booked for the Zipline and the Upper Green River Adventure.

Cody and Paladin were amazing tour guides. They were very informative and personable. They made sure to answer our questions and make us laugh with facts and jokes. They also took amazing photos of us as we zipped along. Overall I was high satisfied and would book with them again!

Allison

Such an amazing experience! The views were spectacular. Our guides Boden & Connor were excited and positive, yet also took safety so seriously! They kept making jokes which made it even more fun. They took several photos that we ended up purchasing as well. Will definitely go again if we are in the area in the future

It was my first time ever zip lining and I was nervous. The guides, John and Albert, made our group feel at ease from the start. They gave clear directions, were meticulous with safety practices, were encouraging, and hilarious. The scenery was beautiful and the course was a lot of fun! It was a great experience that I will absolutely do again. 12/10 highly recommend!

Our experience at The Gorge was so much fun. We had Paladin and Josh for our guides and they were knowledgeable, funny, professional and very helpful. The whole experience was top notch. The equipment and course were very well maintained and both guides could answer any question they were asked. They definitely made it fun for all of us. The course is challenging because there are so many zips and the landings are a little jarring. This is due to the braking system used, but it is safe and you get used to the abrupt stops. I would only caution anyone with a bad neck or back. Other than that, I highly recommend The Gorge zip lines to anyone who likes a little adventure!

Cristi
What an AMAZING experience. I did the zip line with a group of 5 and Emma and Bella were our guides. Both of them were extremely professional and Emma was so amazing she is the Michael Jordan of zipline guides. The thrill was awesome and the views breathtaking! I highly recommend!
