We decided to take my son (who is 9) to the Monkido climbing park for his birthday. He and his sister (who is 12) and my husband spent the day "spiderman-ing" from tree to tree on tight ropes and ziplines. The kids course was very basic and could be completed by anyone as young as 7 and no older than... More

Pricey, but for a one time trip its ok. Ziplines are good fun. But arrived and staff made us wait a long time for the next one even though we'd reserved the previous time. More

If you're in this category then get yourself in to this place before it's too late. I'm... More
