"Great bunch of guys and gals associated with this company. At no time did I feel uncomfortable. Instructions were great and right on the money! They had someone with a sign waiting on us outside the terminal. The ride was about an hour to the site on an air-conditioned bus. We added the zip line, these were great zip lines!"
