I have to say that i didn't expected to face on this wonderful island a fantastic jungle flight on these very relaxing gondolas over the trees. The experience is really exceptional, offering the chance to people not used to trek in the jungle to see a wonderful scenario, an explosion of colours and a real rainforest at his best. I... More

We did the Tranopy tour, which included a Tram ride up the mountain, a hike to and from the zip lines and the zip lines. Our guides, Peterson and Kadeem, were great. The were fun and had a great knowledge of the rain forest and the history of St. Lucia. We had a wonderful time listening to them talk about... More

Whilst the zip wire may look fun and exciting, the canopy tour is most definitely not. One hours ride in a gondola up through the trees at a cost of $85 is completely over priced and not worth the money. Sorry to say very dull and most definitely boring, couldn't recommend it less. More

We booked through Celebrity cruise line and had a wonderful experience with 2 guides for 4 people. It seemed scary at first but the guides were very helpful and we enjoyed 9 ziplines in total, plus a rapelling drop. Great view of the rainforest. More

Took this as an excursion from a Royal Caribbean ship. Sure wouldn't want to try to find it on our own though! Up in the mountains of the rainforest, the aerial tram was beautiful. Open air car holds 8 people and one guide, so you have good ratio. Scenery is great going up and particularly down. Some of the zip... More

The aerial tram is something like 90 mins to 2 hrs roundtrip and reaches far above the rainforest. You get some great views of the canopy and surrounding areas. More

Our group went to the Rain Forest Zip Line & Aerial Trams and had a blast. At least the zip liners did.... The younger guys 16 to 50 did the zip line. I'd done one before and this was actually safer and more exhilarating than any I'd ever done. They have a couple of surprises above and beyond a standard... More

Have a slight fear of heights...then do this tour! Why...the staff is great and will assist you through the zip lines -- (Alcee, you were great!!!). The tour begins with a brief training on a sample zip line. While waiting your turn, you must look around at all the different birds, including the beautiful hummingbirds. Then you'll ride the gondola... More

We just returned from a Carnival Cruise on Victory where we booked a side trip through shoretrips.com to the rainforest canopy zip line. We saved a lot of money booking through the .com but it was a little more difficult to find our representatives after getting off of the ship. The bus ride there and our guide "nicknamed Simple" was... More
