      Epic experience
      The zip lining experience alone was epic, but the real star of the show was the staff. Impeccably safety conscious, friendly, and fun. They are totally dedicated to creating your ideal experience. Highly recommend.

      Just beautiful!
      First time zip-liner and 60 year old woman here. This was a fun, exciting, terrifying trip. It started with a 30 minute bus ride out of the city of Roatan. After gearing up in harnesses, gloves and helmets we were taken to a training line to learn how to brake and land on the platform. We were also given instruction in how to interpret the hand signals the guides could give us while on the cables (slow down, straighten out). There were 11 or 12 platforms with lines in many different lengths, and a guide on every platform. After the first couple lines I was able to take a deep breath and look around (the first ones were just me looking straight ahead holding on for dear life). Once I relaxed a little I was able to enjoy each ride. The views were absolutely stunning in every direction. At no point did I feel unsafe. The guides offered to go with me tandem if necessary. They were very helpful and skilled. I wore a t-shirt and bike shorts. I would not recommend short-shorts or loose-fitting clothing. The harnesses go around your thighs, torso and shoulders and those clothes may make them uncomfortable. Close-toed shoes are required. We started at the top of a mountain range and zipped to the bottom, requiring a ride back up the mountain in an open buggy to get back to our starting point. They did take pictures which were offered for sale, and were selling t-shirts from a small shop. There were little kids in our group, but it is not for anyone with physical disabilities. There are steps up to every platform, no ramps and no handrails anywhere (it's Mexico). This was a fun excursion from a Norwegian cruise ship. Very well organized.

      Wonderful experience!! Highly recommend!
      We loved our experience at South Shore Zipline! The staff provided excellent service! They made sure we were comfortable and communicated well. I myself am a bit afraid of heights but our guides made sure that I was excited and not scared! We highly recommend South Shore to anyone who loves an intense adrenaline rush!! Be sure to include a Zipline experience with them during your trip!

      First time on a zip line. Very easy to do.
      Staff was helpful safety conscious. Spectacular view of the jungle canopy and ocean. Try to avoid times when cruise ships are in, can be very busy. We went in early morning and finished in about an hour

      Safe, Fun Ziplines
      Wow, were these ziplines fun. Two parents and two kids (8 and 10) had a fantastic time gliding along the canopy in Roatan. Friendly staff and we felt safe the entire time.

      Shore Excursion and Best One Yet
      This Zipline is the ultimate experience that is a must have in Roatan. If you want something exciting with fast ZipLines, high heights and wonderful views then this is the place. Numerous zip lines to ride on and the views are stunning! The crew who work with you on the whole experience make sure safety first and make sure you have a great time. So worth the time and the money to go through South Shore.

      Fantastic experience !
      Loved this experience! Beautiful scenery, helpful , fun staff, exhilarating, informative. From the time we loaded the bus to our return, we enjoyed it all with one “minor “ exception … I hate to even mention it but the that is what this “forum “ is for. Tipping was very confusing. We wanted to be sure to tip well , because like I said previously , we were very pleased overall. But, jeeperz. …. We were told a few times, not just once or twice , that each staff had to be tipped individually ? Bus drivers , 6 zip line staff, eco walk narrator , bus narrator,…. Etc. we were not prepared for all that and not even sure if it’s true. Seems like there has got to be a better way ? Everything else …. Top notch. You won’t be sorry you went on this adventure : )

      South Shore Zipline
      We booked this through our cruise as their Adrenaline Zip Line Adventure. It was an 11 line zipline experience, including transportation to/from the cruise port. It was simply great. I've been on a number of other zip lines, and this one was one of the best. They like to joke around quite a bit, but they are very serious when it comes to safety, from when you are fitted with the harness, to the experience on the lines. We had 7 staff accompany our group of roughly 18, and they were able to safely help some of the guests by riding tandem with them. I'd go back again

      Soaring above the jungle.
      What a great time. Jeffrey and his team were so much fun. It went by too quickly. Nothing like zip lining above the jungle with the ocean right in the background. This was by far the safest and most in control zip lines of the dozen I have ever done.

      Adreline filled zip line tour
      Love this experience. Was scared initially of doing it but enjoyed this zip line tour. The best was the No 9 zip line the longest and fastest. Will definitely recommend to everyone. My whole family did it and enjoyed the experience. Awesome people and experienced guides.

    South Shore Zipline was our favorite excursion. We arrived on a RCL cruise ship but easily found the booth for South Shore and they took care of us. We did not book through the cruise ship. The views were amazing. We always felt safe. There were 14 in our group who had booked this excursion on our own and we quickly bonded. There were 200 people coming from the cruise ships after us. We had a wonderful experience! I have 2 boys 8 and 10 and they made sure my 8 year old could make it across the zipline, sometimes they would go with him to make sure. Everything was great! They have lockers for rent for $2. They take pictures of you and you can buy the digital copies for $30. Several people in our group took their phones in a pouch around their neck and I wish I had done that also. We took bug spray but I didn't have any problems with bugs.
    They went over safety procedures and made sure we were following the rules. I never felt concerned for our safety. We also went to the beach so we did the Zip and Dip. Some people did the superman zip line and highly recommended it.

    This was a great excursion for our family! The zip lining was AMAZING. The guides were so helpful. Felt very safe. This was one of our favorite excursions we did while on our cruise. The beach resort was beautiful. Only negative were the locals hounding us to buy from them. It was constant. Watch your bar tab at the beach resort, too. Prices were different every time we ordered and they tried to overcharge us a couple of times. Would definitely do this excursion again.

    Regina, Thanks for the great rating on our zip-line tour. Yes, we have had issues with the beach resort we take our guests to on discrepancies with restaurant and bar bills inconsistency. We have had a meeting with the owners, and they have promised to improve on this end of the tour since it is not run directly by South Shore Zip-line. We look forward to seeing you again in the near future.

    My family and I booked the Canopy Tree Zip line tour, this was an incredible experience! Our tour guide Jack Sparrow was awesome! Headed the whole experience fun, entertaining and was incredibly knowledgeable and professional. His helpers dancer and two trainees were all super encouraging and worked hard to make sure we got the best out of the experience! Definitely give them your phone and pay the $25 for them to take photos of you, the videos and photos came out amazing. I 100% recommend this experience 11 ziplines altogether with incredible views! Thank you so so much for such a great experience

    This was one of our favorite experiences on the island so far. Their communication is amazing and they were extremely prompt and responsive to any questions we had. We went with our two sons who had the best time interacting with the guides.

    All of the staff were extremely kind and helped out at each line. They included round trip transportation from our condo to the excursion and back which was very helpful. It was fun to speak with them and have a great time in the canopy.

    I would highly recommend!

    We have been to this location twice now. The first time we did just the “basic” zip lining but this time we did the combo of the Superman zip line and the standard zip lines. The guides were great but by far Marlin was great and made this a great day.

    I would STRONGLY recommend this adventure. I went on the adventure with 5 of my Very good friends. Three are young and healthy while 1 is 69 and I am 66 and getting a hip replacement soon. We all had a blast. Us 2 old bags rode tandem to assure we could stop but the others are solo. I always felt extremely safe and equipment is very well maintained. The staff went above and beyond to assure we all ha a good time. There is 11 lines and yes there is stairs but all had railings to help. The views were absolutely gorgeous and the crew were a lot of fun. Don’t miss this outing!

    WOW!!! Perfect for someone who loves adventure but not quite ready to jump out of an airplane! I felt perfectly safe with experienced tour guides. Something no one tells you is to bring plenty of smaller bills. There are about 8-10 guys to tip and they deserve it! Also there are photographers, bus drivers, and guides on the buses. So much fun!!!

    It was my first time Zip-lining. This was a ton of fun and well worth the price. No shady ladders to climb. The bus picked us up from our villa and dropped us off at the villa when we were done. It was a smooth walk to each zip line. The bus was waiting at the bottom to carry us back up to the staging area. The guides made everything very simple and therefore very safe.
    I highly recommend this activity.

    Retired couples went zip lining, eco walk, and west bay beach. We were on NCL cruise and had 9 hours ashore. South Shore transported us to and from all locations, great job Alvin. Smooth transition all the way and returned to ship in plenty of time. We zipped with Capt Jack Sparrow and Kevin Hart, a most excellent experience. Then Nora took us on an eco walk where we learned much about the ecology of the area. A short drive to West Bay to Paradise Resort for some time in the ocean and snorkeling. Regrettably our time was short for the ocean part of the tour. If we had to do it again, we likely would have skipped the eco walk to spend more time with snorkeling. Cie la vie, you live and learn. We had a great time and it was well worth the money. Thank you South Shore Adventures.
