The tour staff were amazing in all aspects. Pick up was on time and the drive to the location was wonderful with lots of info about Waiheke. The ziplining was fun even though it was raining and I was quite nervous as I had never been ziplining before. The guides both made me feel safe and secure and I had lots of fun. The rainforest walk was beautiful and I enjoyed learning about the forest, which was extra beautiful because of the rain. I definitely recommend this tour and activity.
Thank you so much for your wondeful review. We love ziplining in the rain and it will bring the guides who took you on tour so much joy knowing you loved the expereince in the rain and appreciated the beauty of the bush because of the rain. It is a whole new expereince which we love to share wiht our guests. Your feedback will be passed on to all the team including the driver who really does know a lot about our wee Island of paradise. Thanks again and we hope you will continue your zipline experience and visit us again in the future.
An excellent way to start our day in Waiheke! An exhilarating ziplining experience before a beautiful guided walk through the forest. The guides were super knowledgeable too!! Next time, we will book the winery combo.

Wonderful experience, Frankie, Poppy and Kyle were amazing, Frankie's knowledge of the Island, the information with her commentary as we went to EcoZip, Poppy and Kyle for their patience and guidance while zipling and the beautiful bush walk. We all enjoyed the day immensely. Thank you again. Thoroughly recommend people to experience the adventure.

Great experience, the children had a great time. Staff were friendly and helpful, along with being informative about the ziplines, environment, wildlife and places to visit. We loved our van driver Frankie, she was amazing, shared lots of information with us. Our group size was good, not too many of us, making it more enjoyable. The length of the visit was good, it could have been a little longer, but that's the joy of ziplining over the trees. Would do it again, the whole experience, cost, staff and forest was great.
Thank you for your wonderful review! We're delighted to hear that both the children and adults had such a great time. It's fantastic to know our team helped make the experience memorable with their friendly service and local knowledge. We're so pleased you enjoyed the adventure and appreciate your recommendation :)
Fabulous day out with eco Zip Waiheke and our patient guides Fraser and Cat. Felt extremely safe and they carefully explained everything and engaged with the guests. Totally Recommend.

We have done numerous family zip line experiences over the years. This one has 3 lines with speed and length increasing over the course. If you are a zip line enthusiast/thrill seeker, these are pretty mid-level compared to some of the ones in Hawaii and Costa Rica. However, the overall experience is top notch. Super professional, incredibly informative and interesting from the moment we were picked up at the ferry until the moment we were dropped off. Definitely would recommend to others.
Thank you for your great review! We're delighted to hear that, as experienced zipliners, you enjoyed the overall EcoZip experience. We're thrilled that the professionalism, local knowledge, and shuttle service helped make your visit a memorable one. Thank you for your recommendation!
Wow!!! What a day it was!! Zipline soo much fun to go on, will definitely do it again. Forest walk was amazing, such beautiful forest to see, and guide was soo funny, made the walk feel so short!
Thank you for your amazing review! We're so glad to hear you had such a fantastic day and enjoyed both the ziplines and the forest walk. It’s great to know your guide helped make the experience fun and engaging too!
Whilst staying in Auckland, we done this tour as a day excursion. We were collected from the ferry terminal and given a brief tour of Waiheke and told about some of the details about the island. Upon arrival, we were given a safety brief and then got into our harnesses. We then proceeded to do 3 different ziplines which were a bit daunting at first, but also a great adrenilin thrill. After finishing the 3 ziplines, we walked back through a subtropical forest to the original starting point. The day was a great experience. I'd never done this activity before but the guides were great and not overwhwelming. My partner has MS but she managed to complete it all and has inspired us to want to do something like this again. Ecozip's environment friendly ethos is commendable and the whole day went according to plan!
Thank you for your wonderful review! We're delighted to hear that you enjoyed your Waiheke day trip and that our team helped make your first ziplining experience both exciting and comfortable. We truly appreciate your kind words about our eco-friendly approach and are thrilled everything went smoothly. Thanks again for choosing EcoZip, and we hope to welcome you back someday!
Excellent experience with incredible views. Marcus and Fraser were super knowledgeable about the nature and surroundings in Waiheke and made for a great time. Make sure you arrive 30 mins before your tour start time!
Great fun experience with our guides Marcus and Poppy.
Thank you for your review! We're so pleased to hear you had a great time with Marcus and Poppy. We'll be sure to pass on your kind words to them :)
