Third time coming back and every time I get this vibe that Ben is really unhappy to be there. He…read morecalled out a young employee in front of every single customer about color coding the helmets when you put them up, and he was so passive aggressive about it. He verbally put her down in front of the whole crowd that was about to go to the course. Extremely unprofessional and I feel like if y'all have a high turnover rate, it's because of Ben. The gentleman in the ropes course, I wish I could remember his name. He was so kind and professional, he would joke with the younger kids and make them laugh, go out on the course in a moments notice to help someone, and was all around in a good mood. He was having a good time and making sure the customers were too. So was the younger girl that Ben verbally attacked in front of everyone. Both the staff in the tree tops were fantastic, extremely helpful, and a pleasure to be around. I do feel bad for anyone that has to work with Ben though. If he was my manager I would quit before the first day was over.

Spend a few hours in the tree tops and get a challenging workout (if you try the advanced courses)…read more Navitat is a great outdoor activity for all ages. It combines a ropes course that utilizes climbing safety gear with a zip lining course. There are several levels from beginner to advanced. Each course has obstacles that require you to walk/maneuver across. The course is designed so your are always locked onto a cable system that is very stable. So, you can "fall" and be okay. I've seen small kids to older people doing these courses and it's a lot of fun. If you are strong/tough, you can still find some pretty intense challenges here. I was sweating on their advanced one because it requires a good bit of strength and balance in some places. But, my 11 year old son managed it. So, it's not overly crazy. Staff are top notch. I've been here about 5 times over the past 2 years and they've always done a thorough initial training and made sure you're comfortable. Also, they have good advice and a positive attitude. Tips/random things: 1) wear closed top shoes. If you forget, they have some extras. 2) they have water and cups at the center hub that leads to the rope courses. 3) free lockers for your phone, wallet, etc. 4) helmets, gloves, harness/gear is provided. 5) you can reserve a time online or just go to Ijams and do it there. I've done it both ways. 6) If you go a lot, they have a membership and punch pass option. 7) they offer evening times and the course is illuminated with Christmas lights. 8) Ijams has free EV charging if you drive an EV. Overall: Love it. Glad we have Navitat in Knoxville! Highly recommended.

This had and still has major potential. The concept is refreshing, the idea is intriguing, the…read morestaff is friendly... But the execution is lackluster, especially for the price you pay. General admissions is $20. For an extra $18, you can skip the line. I'm still iffy about whether the $18 was worth it, but it was either an extra $18 or a 2 hour wait. Unfortunately, the current Zombie Outbreak isn't worth the $18 or the 2 hour wait. They intentionally never quite explain what's included in the admissions price, just that their website harks it as SC'S #1 haunted trail. The haunted trail, if you can even call it that, is short and spectacularly unspooky. The trail is also going through an identity crisis as to whether its actually a trail... Because the majority of it is hardly a trail. Think of the serpentine single lines you're forced to zig zag your way through at an airport security check area or the entrance to Disney World. I hate those lines, because whether there's 1 person in front of you or 100 people in front of you, you have to start at the beginning and zig zag your way to the front. It's a pain in the butt. That's the 'trail', except you're zig zaging through a bunch of tall wooden panels they haphazardly set up. - There's constantly loud banging behind the wooden panels, which adds to the headache. Constant banging does not equal scary. If anything, I think the entire wooden panel portion should have been silent. Since the wooden panels are already so tall, every unknown turn would have had the customers scaring themselves... However, with the way the actors were constantly announcing themselves, we already knew there was someone on the other side and were even able to identify by the sounds their exact proximity. - Which leads to the second point: Because the trail was so short, there wasn't really an opportunity to develop that element of suspense. - They should capitalize on creating an eerie atmosphere. Party City quality props just don't cut it. The skulls looked fake. I know real skulls would be slightly morbid, but realistic props go a long way (realistic skulls, pleeeease?). - They should have used the dimly lit areas to their full potential. The dimly areas were pretty much left to itself. Please, I can't scare myself. Dimly lit areas are perfect places for someone to stand behind a bush and rustling it as people walked by. This is also a perfect place to have a creepy laugh suddenly echo through the silence (and this could totally be triggered by a sensor). I'd even recommend having someone dressed as Freddie or Jason jump out, but that may be a little too daring for what the Greenville Zombie Outbreak can handle. - They clearly had a fog machine, but it was placed right at the exit. Yo, fog up an area of the trail, instead (after all, the wooden panels will guide them through). Honestly there weren't that many people waiting in line. It's just that they organized it so only 6 people go in at a time. The next group doesn't go in until the previous group is done. I was a little confused at first as to why they weren't just queuing people up and letting them go in at certain intervals. The answer was the zombie shoot. They really wanted to keep the zombie shoot/antidote mission a surprise, almost a little too desperately. I contemplated whether I should reveal the zombie shoot portion, and in the end, I have decided not to talk specifics. However, to say I was absolutely disappointed would be an understatement. The zombie shoot should have been throughout the entire trail, not just confined in a small area. And it's because the first group needed to complete the zombie shoot before the next group could enter that the wait was so long. If anyone is wondering, yes, my group found the antidote. There was nothing exciting about finding it. :( I really, really wanted to love the Zombie Outbreak, but I just wasn't scared. At all. As the current Halloween season is over, it won't be until next Halloween that they will open their doors. I will definitely be revisiting this place next Halloween. I hope that next year I can feel my adrenaline pump in fear. Fingers crossed!

Although the location is "shady", the trail is very exhilarating. This particular attraction is…read moreconsidered to be the "scariest" by me, even the period in which the group is supplied with plastic 'guns' to search for a hidden vial amongst an expanse full of hidden zombies was exhilarating (no lights). As I entered, the man at the ticket booth stated their general rule: "The actors won't touch you unless you touch them." Next, he walked along a lighted trail; I assumed the period following the brief introduction would be very cheap, until he left us and all lights were cut. Then, the trail became truly scary. With this being said, I would not recommend this attraction for those with heart conditions or very young minors (or individuals afraid of "realistic" zombies)*. *Other attractions generally include actors attempting to intimidate customers from a distance.
