A Detailed Look at the Experience
Starting with the zipline, this tour kicks off in a way that gets your blood pumping. You’ll soar through the rainforest on six different ziplines—over 1 km long in total. It’s a fantastic way to see the greenery from above and get a real sense of the lush landscape. The ziplines are designed to give you both thrills and incredible views, and judging by reviews, the facilities are well-maintained and staffed with knowledgeable guides who keep safety a priority. As one reviewer put it, “Massive long zipline high in the canopy,” which really captures that feeling of soaring above the treetops.
Next up is the Skybridge—a walk that offers panoramic vistas far beyond what you’d see from the ground. As you step onto this suspended bridge, you’ll be treated to sweeping views of the rainforest and the reef below, making it an ideal photo opportunity. The sense of being suspended in the air with such a backdrop is pretty hard to beat. Many reviews praise the facilities and the staff’s professionalism, which makes the experience feel both safe and enjoyable.
The Canyon Swing is where the tour most clearly caters to adrenaline seekers. It’s a free-fall swing that will definitely get your heart racing. As Nathan mentioned, "be prepared to trek up the very long steep hill,” which is worth noting if mobility is a concern. The swing is described as “epic,” and it’s a highlight for those wanting a real adrenaline rush. Jumping off into the canyon creates a moment of pure exhilaration, coupled with stunning landscape views.

What to Expect on the Itinerary
The tour begins with private transportation collecting you from your hotel, which is a real plus for convenience. The transfer ensures you’re relaxed before the adventure begins, and it’s included in the $164.97 price. Once at the site, you’ll be introduced to your guides and given safety instructions.
The zipline portion includes six ziplines, each offering a different stretch of rainforest to whiz through. The experience is tailored to be accessible for all levels, but a maximum weight of 120kg applies for ziplining. It’s a great chance to get a bird’s-eye view of the lush greenery and ocean scenery.
After the ziplines, you’ll walk to the Skybridge, which involves a bit of a trek, but the views make it worthwhile. The Skybridge gives you an unmatched 360-degree panorama of Vanuatu’s rainforest and reef below, perfect for photos and just taking in the scenery.
Finally, the Canyon Swing involves a dramatic climb up a steep hill, but many describe the ride as “the ride of a lifetime.” It’s a free-fall swing that offers that adrenaline hit most thrill-seekers crave. The swing’s weight restriction is 140kg, making it accessible for a broad range of adventurers.
The tour lasts roughly 4 hours, offering plenty of time to enjoy each activity without feeling rushed. The tour ends with transportation back to your hotel, bringing your adventure to a smooth close.
