If you’re planning on vacationing in Kauai in the near future, you’ll definitely want to put taking one of our exhilarating zipline tours on your list of “must do’s.” It’s exciting, fun, challenging, and yes, maybe a little nerve rattling for first-timers. Go for it! It’s an opportunity you don’t want to miss, and we have a few tips to make the most of your zip lining experience.
Take advantage of our Early Bird Special when you book an early morning tour Monday through Friday online. Big savings! Morning’s a great time to zip through the fresh air, too.
On a humorous (but serious) note, you probably don’t want to wear your favorite miniskirt or decide this is the time to go commando, considering the view from the ground of those watching you. Just a quick FYI here!
Unlike when you’re traveling by plane and you tune out the flight attendant’s pre-flight routine, you don’t want to ignore the guides and operators who give you instructions on safe operation and how to control your ride. Of all the tips we can give you, LISTENING carefully is the most important one.
Yes, it’s a free-feeling experience, but you don’t want your hair flying behind you or your flip-flops sailing through the air. Close-toe shoes are best, and always wear a helmet. In fact, most ziplining facilities require the use of a helmet for your safety.
Be aware of your surroundings, and be careful. Whether climbing to the take-off point, on a platform or canopy bridge between ziplines, or on the ground, always watch your step and everyone around you to ensure safety.
Give the equipment a look and ask questions. If you’re not certain whether the company adheres to standards set forth by the Association for Challenge Course Technology or other association, or whether and how often the equipment is inspected, just ask. A legitimate operator will be happy to answer your questions, and you’ll have greater peace of mind.
A Kauai zipline tour is ideal for thrill seekers and those who just want to have fun. Keep these things in mind when you’re considering a zipline ride at any location, and have a blast! If you’re headed our way soon, be sure to come see us at Just Live or book your tour online. See you in the air!
