I'm a little surprised at the relatively low overall rating, though it looks as though some had…read moresome pretty specific issues that others may not likely run into. Admittedly, I don't have too much to compare to as I've only done much smaller courses indoors. However, there are still 5 fairly large (IMO) courses) and it does largely require the advertised three hours. I think it's pretty good value for the experience, the relatively high staffing ratio and large course. There's quite a mix of obstacles in terms of crossing, so it's not simply repeating the same thing. All five courses each have their own zip line and some are a pretty good distance. I found staff very helpful and quite patient with everyone. You get about a 20 minute intro, but it's very much needed as you need to know how to hook yourself up safely and even set up on a zipline on your own (but they're there for the first one). I'll be honest, I did deliberately try and position myself near the start so I wouldn't be in the back of our cohort. You may want to consider doing the same, though it seems as though after a bit of time it spreads out pretty well. Note that the giant zipline that goes back and forth across the lake is an extra $18 or so. It's well worth it from my experience since you're travelling a few hundred meters (each way) and get the speed and distance you'd associate with a thrill ride. The ones in the course are still pretty fun though, especially when they're your first experiences. I was okay without gloves as I have fairly calloused hands, and I'm proud of my daughter for barely complaining though I could see they were a bit red when done. They should probably do a better job of suggesting it to people when purchasing tickets as I heard others expressing that they wished they had them. You hold onto cables virtually all times when crossing and at times there's a good amount of tension. Plus, for them, it's a wasted opportunity as they could probably make good money selling cheaper pairs. All that said, it doesn't affect my rating and I was fine personally. For me it made for a wonderful day and mixing: adventure, exercise and nature are right up my alley. A bit crazy that it took me so long to get to this place since it's so close, but very glad that I did.

For the Tree Trekking all customers are by appointment. Your are time slotted for instructional…read morelessons on how to use your equipment safely. After that you are instructed to start on the easiest courses and work your way through. What is not disclosed is that you have to sign an additional waiver when your inside (aside from the one on arrival). The odd thing is that it is just a notebook and the student employees just ask you did you do all the other courses before attempt the most advanced course. It's pretty loosey goosey, instead of this system a stamp system should be used or a passport system because if they are using this for liability is a signature request under duress (is what I understand from my legal eagle knowledge). Considering the risk, I would say more needs to be done. The whole course are supervised and the summer hired students are trained to radio each other when a new person is going on the course. The two customer limit on platform are loosely reinforced. I did find that some of the platforms were short on the landing for the mini zipline sections. And on the course the student hires warned us it's slippery because it was wet. Perhaps add some slip grips just because you're flying in at high speed into the landing in some cases (especially when you're pretty large). Good things is that if you wanted the zipline experience you get it through the whole course. You can get away with just paying for the whole course. If you're a parent you may want to go in and just have a look how things are run before putting your kids through the track for the peace of mind. The other thing is that you also want to have a telephoto lens on your slr if you're watching from the ground or hookup your child with a go pro for the fun of watching later. Overall difficulty was intermediate. I think to level up try the course without holding on anything. This was my first time doing this. I would have preferred more physical challenges on the course. There are washrooms behind the sign in cabin. Two toilets in the female. But if you want cleaner go back to the resort. So I rated this four star for the following reason. 1. Price point is steep on a single visit, even with coupons. Season pass may be better; 2. The course liability on-site could be better, I just wonder what happened if there was an accident and if the location did enough to protect customers; 3. The course is full of student employees, surely trained well. But considering young kids on the course a few adult staff would make it feel safer. There were times when I know none if the staff we watching me because I was sloppy on the security straps-without realizing until my date warned me (thanks); 4. Washrooms are not clean on the premise of the trekking. Go to horseshoe resort.

**First Ride to Winter Bliss**…read more My first time snow tubing, and Chicopee Tube Park made it unforgettable. Visiting during the Christmas holidays added that perfect festive magic, with the crisp winter air, snow-dusted trees, and the kind of excitement that makes you feel like a kid again. The tubing lanes are wide, well-groomed, and just the right steepness to get your heart racing without feeling unsafe. I spent hours going down over and over, and every run delivered that perfect mix of thrill and laughter. Staff were friendly and helpful, making the whole experience smooth from start to finish. The vibe at the park is cheerful and welcoming, with families, friends, and solo adventurers all sharing the same infectious energy. Hot drinks and cozy spots to rest in between rides made it easy to recharge before heading back up the lift. If I had to suggest one improvement, it would be slightly more lifts or faster loading during peak holiday hours, as waits can build up when the park is busy. Still, the fun factor more than makes up for it. Chicopee Tube Park is a must-visit if you want a pure winter adventure, especially for first-timers looking to embrace the snow, laughter, and holiday spirit. I'll definitely be coming back next winter.

It's a pretty straightforward experience since during the winter, since they are simply a snow tubbing hill. It's a good-sized hill with clear lanes to go down. There's a moving belt that you stand on and bring your tube up with you to get up the hill. Beyond that, there's a surprisingly large chalet which seems like it could accommodate a larger ski hill. They also have snow machines which allows them to continue operating outside of normal snow levels, and that was certainly the case when I visited. I don't live in the area and had to drive a bit to get here, but it would be very convenient to anyone in the region since it's right in the middle of Kitchener off of the highway, and not having to go to a more remote area. It looks like in the the fair weather months they have a big zipline (or two?), and that could be a lot of fun as it was a pretty good length. They do everything they need to do to run a good tube park, so no complaints for me at all.

We were…read morethere from 11am to closing with kids ages 4,8,10 and nobody at any point said they were bored or wanted to go home, this is a first! We have been to many farms around Ontario and even as adults we enjoyed ourselves! Before we came I reached out to them as my youngest one is a full-time wheelchair user and they were super kind by email and informed me they accept Access 2 card. That helped! As this meant that we only had to pay for 4 admissions and I was free as my daughter's caretaker. We decided to keep the wheelchair at home after seeing some photos online of the roads, we took the wagon instead. I highly recommend taking a wagon or a stroller! This is a big farm. You will do a lot of walking. Some of the things about this place : - Lots of shade, lots of benches and seating areas to rest in the shade for anyone. - Lots of bathrooms can be found around the farm, including a small house that was made for privacy for anyone wanting to breastfeed their baby or change a diaper. The little house had two chairs, a change table and a nice size bench by the window if you had a oldest child you needed to change. I thought that was a nice touch to the farm. It is labelled on the map! - The staff were very friendly and helpful. - The food we grabbed for lunch, service was quick and everyone was happy with their meal. Kids meals were under $10.00( they had chicken strips and burger option), Adult meals were $10+ ( burgers, chicken wrap, chicken sandwich). The kids loved the honey lemonade with the Popsicle inside. - We also got some ice cream at the end of the day and had funnel cake that was $8.00 each. - They had a splash pad, pretty decent size. We did not end up using it as it was too cold out and our kids found they were too occupied with everything else. They had nice size private individual change rooms right next to the splash pad. Also saw a change table in the biggest one. - They had many animals through out the farm to visit and feed. - They took debit or credit only! There was no cash option! -The gift shop was a nice size, you can sample 3 of your choice of honey flavours, that was a fun experience for the kids. - Lots of other cool mazes, climbing things, games and things I never seen at other farms that you just need to discover for yourself! Totally worth the drive! We recommend it! Many hours of fun!

This year-round destination for adventures and activities always has something for everyone! I've…read morecome here in both the summer and winter, and there are always plenty of fun things to do. Meandering through the caves and caverns is the main highlight in the summer (as well as spring and fall). All caves and caverns follow a structured path, and everything is clearly well marked. They also have mini golf, gemstone mining, hiking trails, and adventure playground for the warmer months. In the winter, it's great for snowshoeing, cross-country skiing, and sauna. They have a nordic pro shop where you can purchase or rent equipment. The gift shop, which doubles as a small cafe selling hot drinks and snacks, also carries winter activity essentials, ranging from base layers to gloves and toques. All the staff are friendly and helpful. We rented their snowshoes, and they were of excellent quality (with spikes at the bottom to help crush ice, which became very helpful as the trails were quite icy that day). The snowshoe trails are mostly loops and very clearly well marked - it's impossible to get lost.

Lots of trails, but they really need to update their website! My kiddo was so excited for the train…read moreride. But the day we went was on and off rain, and it turns out the train is battery/electric run so it does not operate unless the ground is completely dry. Wish we would have known this beforehand as the entry fee is kind of hefty if the one thing your kid was excited for didn't end up operating. They require closed toe hiking or running shoes to enter. The suspension bridge trail and the caves trail were really neat. If you have a toddler 2 or under you might need to carry them part of the caves trail as there are some tricky slippery spots. The suspension bridge trail is much easier and you get a great view from the bridge. The playground is big and fun. You can also buy fish food (25 cents) to feed the fish, though you're more likely to get gulls fighting over the fish food than to see any fish. We did see a big trout though which was neat! Besides the train not operating, and the kind of cold and wet weather, this would have been a great summer day activity. They let you bring your own food inside to have a picnic. And once you get your wristband you have in and out privileges all day which was nice. We wiuld have enjoyed this more if it was warmer and not raining.

Thusly, my initial walk was rebooted from my birthday to a few days later, which happened to be one of the last of the season. The client services were proactive in their outreach and also contacted me on the day of the reschedule to confirm that it was a 'go.' So I finally did it, and it's really not for the faint at heart! If you want to overcome you fear of heights this is probably the closest to 'cold turkey' as you are going to get. The team from the orientation and sizing of the suits to the walk leader Stephen were to best in class. They are supportive and amiable, not to mention patient. They know your names, relative skill and fear level within 30 seconds more or less. They ensure your safety and comfort in a friendly and amicable manner. The views of T. At night are the most pectacular I've ever seen, and hanging several 100 feet off the ground was well worth the $195 plus tax. Don't forget you also get a ticket for the elevator and Skype, witha coffee or hot chocolate which we used right after. That alone is worth an additional $55. We also received a complimentary CN Tower toque. Thanks guys for a great start to 2022! -Zuk

If a friend was paying for my second trip I'd definitely do it though!

How can you come to Niagara Falls without "doing it all", and this is maybe the best way to do…read morethat. Obviously you pay way more money to take this tour, than to do these destinations on your own, Pros and Cons? Certainly. Pros: -They pick you up at either your hotel, or a designated area. -You get to go to the highlight spots without having to purchase separate tickets. -You do not have to pay for parking, or attempt to find parking for each of the attractions. -Border crossing could not be more easy. Cons: -You may not get to spend as much time, or you may spend too much time for you, at each of the attractions. -You are tied to a group, so part of the pace of you journey is tied to the others you are bundled with. -The "Lunch" stop. Yes you can pack your own, you can purchase at the designated spot which has a store and a Maple Syrup tasting, but clearly this is a designated tourist trap and of course the stop here was quite long. -The sign in the front of the van to "Tip your drivers, that 20% is customary as this is how they make the majority of their wages"
