Overall, a good experience. Do the early bid special if you can. You get a discounted rate to do as they open, and by the time I did it and took the shuttle back up, it was 10 minutes. It's fun, safe, and quick, and the people are great. That said, I can't give it 5. I paid extra to get the photo/video package. It's a little misleading. They take 3 pictures at the end, and you can only pick 1 to use/keep. The video is mostly you coming and leaving, and passing various checkpoints. I was expecting a little more, like a camera mounted in front of you so the whole thing is taped, and more pictures than 1. That said, do the zipline, do it early for the discount, but pass on the extra package.
We waited until the afternoon when it was sunny so we paid extra for "peak hours"/not what was advertised. The ride itself was fun and I felt safe. The experience afterwards was weird when we weren't offered to have our photo taken at the end and the employees were not paying much attention or getting out harnesses off. It was a weird experience with the staff.
I paid somewhere around 60 US dollars to take my son here to see and experience their Zipline in Niagara Falls CA on NYE. I could have swore it was a bit cheaper online a few weeks in advance when I checked it but this is what they quoted when I went to the booth so not sure if buying online in advance is better. I traveled during January which isn't peak season. I got there around 4ish pm and there was no line at the booth, signing up was pretty quick too. Once we got up there it was an only a handful of others and wait was under 10 minutes as they had predicted. My son thoroughly enjoyed it and I appreciated the fact that they have the option of a lil buggy jeep driving them back to us. The day was a bit colder and he was able to ride right before dark hit. Supposably it's only 15 if he decides to ride again. If I make my way back I think I would like to try it out for myself next and live up to my promise for my youngest too. Who didn't get to ride because after a certain hour certain underages can't. To be continued.
It's a fun Zipline experience in Niagara Falls, on the Canadian side. It's a 35-40 seconds long zipline. We decided to try this right after our City Cruise. We bought our ticket online and signed the waiver. But still had to wait for 20-30 mins to pick up the gear. Once that's done, it's a long climb up to the starting point. Another 30-40 min the line for our turn. Experience was fantastic. Exhilarating once you are released and all the way to the end. You get a nice view of the Falls and city on both sides. Once you reach the end of line, either you can wait for a golf cart to take you to the starting point or walk back. We waited for the cart and that's another 10-15 mins. Experience is great. It's expensive. $90 per person + close to 1.5 hours of wait. If you are keen on doing this, yes it's something for you!
Many reviewers have complained about the cost, and the distance of this zip line attraction. I find their reviews are totally unfair. You have to understand, this is one of many attractions alongside the river. Unlike actual zip line theme parks, you don't get the extra distance or obstacles to fly through. This attraction is a quick introduction into what you can expect to experience in the world of zip-lining. I feel the price is more than fair. You really didn't expect a attraction in one of the worlds, biggest tourist destinations to be free did you?
This was a nice, beautiful, long zipline. I came here alone and was paired up with another solo person and we had a blast together. I love adventure so when I saw I could zipline across Niagara Falls, I was all for it. They also offer video recordings of your zip line so it is nice to be able to go back and look at how much fun you had. The price was decent for the experience.
Very cool idea for tourists but you really only Zipline next to the Niagara Falls. Started out checking in and weighing in which was very easy. Got in line and proceeded to wait in line for 2.5 hours before being able to be strapped in. They let every single "white hat" or fast pass go in front of everyone no matter how long the "blue hats" regular folk have been waiting. I wish the website would have stated it would have been like that and i would have bought them for my group of four. Also proceeded to buy the photo package for our group but once we got all strapped in we were told our group would not be going all together and the photos of us would not be together. I'm not sure why this information is not available online or told when we check in. The staff working (6/21/22) are not very friendly either. I don't think I'll be doing anything from WildPlay every again. Overall neat experience but will never do again.
Okay ... Here is the skinny. You order tickets. Get the Express pass not general admission. That way you can skip the line. Yes it's worth the money. You have to select a time and you can only be checked in 10 minutes prior. Even with the fast pass it's going to be a minute. No worries you are under a roof so if it's raining or super sunny you have coverage. The view of the falls is absolutely gorgeous. This is on the Canada side not on the US side. The entire ride lasts for 1 minute 13 seconds but feels like 5 minutes. You sit in an up right position and spread your arms and legs to help with speed. the helmets are mandatory and for a good reason. If not for safety they also protect your head when hooking up the gear. The staff was super helpful and friendly. We had tickets for 3:40pm and didn't get to go until 4:05pm just because of the process of safety and security. I didn't kind the wait. The cost is around $200.00 for us both. Then the QR for the video was $40.00/ea and you have live footage with great views of the falls. They also provide a shuttle back to the top of the falls so you don't have to walk. Love that customer service. Even stopped along the way to get pictures of the cliffs/falls. Parking the truck was rough. Lots of people. Everything was full. We parked at the bird kingdom and it was only a 5 minute walk to the Zipline. Definitely something to do at least once while you visit. To experience the falls in this manner was worth all the time and money spent.
We were a group of 4. Once you pay, you than head over to the iPads to sign a waiver. Was a quick process and than they give you a time when to return to head over to zipline. The wait was not long, we went to restrooms & souvenir shop and next thing you notice the wait was over. When you check in they check your weight than head towards second level you have to wait like 5 minutes or so but the staff was conversing with everyone so time went by fast. When you reach the top, they strap you & put like a book bag type attached to you which was good if you carried belongings with you. The videos and photos come out awesome that how can you not buy it. It was $30 for photos/videos but we were a group of four so we purchased only one copy and spilt it. Overall was an amazing activity to do with a gorgeous view.
About $60 Canadian regular price per person, or $50 if riding before 10 am. Must be age 7 and up to ride, and under 245 lbs I believe. Took us about 2 hours from registration, paying the cashier, going to another section to fill out a waiver form on the computer (the computers needs some update, touch screen sensors are off, some registered customers can't find their names), waiting in another line to be weighted & obtain a helmet, then onto another line that take us up to the launch station. After climbing to the top, we wait again to be secured in a jumper pants. After 4 rounds of wait totaling 2 hours, we finally zipline our way down a short one minute journey for a nice aerial view of Niagara Falls. Then we get shuttled back to the launch pad. End of the $60 experience. They do take videos of your entire experience which you can purchase for approximately $30. We got suckered into buying it since it's our first zipline experience ever. Summery: a nice, short and easy ride for first time riders. But, if you've done it before, I'm sure there are better zipline experiences elsewhere. I'd prefer a longer journey for the price paid.
Wild plays Zip Line to the Falls in Niagara Falls is an awesome, adrenaline filled, exciting and yet somehow peaceful zip line. I have never zip lined before until this trip, this was a blast! I wanted to do it again it was so great! The website says the weight limit is 275 but they tell you in person no more than 300 lbs. it's a very freeing experience and the views cannot be beaten. For a large family this can be a little expensive but the fun is definitely worth it. They even have several cameras up along the zip line to record the ride. After your zip line experience you can purchase the video and it was quite a bit cheaper than I expected for two videos. I would recommend everyone to do this! One of the coolest experiences I have ever had! read more
WildPlay Niagara Falls was hands down one of the BEST experiences of my trip! From the moment we arrived, the staff made us feel welcome. Everyone was friendly, encouraging, and genuinely seemed to enjoy making sure we had an amazing time. They explained everything clearly, kept the atmosphere fun, and made the entire adventure unforgettable. The only reason I'm giving 4 stars instead of 5 is because of my experience at the very end. The employee who removed my harness didn't greet me, didn't explain what he was doing, and suddenly unclipped my harness, causing it to fall to the ground. It honestly startled me because I had no idea what was happening. He then just stood there looking at me as if I should already know what to do next. It felt dismissive and was such a strange way to end an otherwise incredible experience. I wish I had gotten his name because everyone else was absolutely fantastic. That one interaction won't take away from how much fun I had. If you're visiting Niagara Falls, I highly recommend WildPlay! The adventure, the views, and the staff (with one unfortunate exception) made it an experience I'll never forget. read more
It's late June, and gorgeous weather for this sport! Although the company recommends online reservations, even at our nine a.m. ticket time there was an additional two hour wait. If you can afford it, I'd suggest buying the "jump to the head of the line" tickets - these are green wristbands instead of the regular ones, which are blue. There's a weigh-in at the place where wristbands are put on you; this is also where you are given a blue safety helmet. For the next 90 minutes you're at the top of the tower, waiting for your turn to be strapped into a harness that becomes your seat and safety lines. 90's pop hits on the overhead, and playing, "name that language" help pass the time. And then there's the spectacular view. Just before the gate is opened, instructions are given. Listen carefully to them: The stop *will* be sudden, and it will be scary, until you realize, "Oh, I was told about this". The trip itself? I laughed all the way down, and leaned far back, which made me travel much faster than the other three people on parallel lines. Once unharnessed and out the other side, it's very much an, "exit through the gift shop" situation: There's no other way to leave but through the media center, and multiple people tried to prompt us to buy videos or photos we hadn't requested. Which is fine, but I mention it. Lastly, as a courtesy to all guests, chauffeured golf carts bring everyone up the steep trail to Victoria Park. I imagine in the wilting heat of July and August, this would be especially welcome. I strongly recommend this activity, especially as a family outing, or as a date. read more

Let me preface this by saying my husband and I have been ziplining in Oracovis, PR on some of the most amazing ziplines I've ever seen anywhere. This website kind of makes it seem like the zipline goes over the Niagara Falls. However, it just goes down next to the falls. It's barely even over the water. The website advertises that there are 4 ziplines, in which 4 riders can go at the same time. However, there was a group of 4 in front of us and they were told that only 2 of the ziplines were being used at that time so they would have to go separately. My husband and I had our cameras ready and attached to our gear with our carabiners (just like we had done in PR), but were told that we weren't allowed to have our cameras at all even though they were tightly secured. We later learned that this was obviously so that they could make more money by trying to get us to buy their pictures and video. The staff did take pics of us with our camera when asked and we did not purchase any pics there. And it was pretty cool that the bags attached to the harness' on our back unzipped so we could store our stuff to bring down to the bottom with us. Overall, the zipline was fun and I'm glad we did it, once. read more

Well first the zipline by the falls in niagara it was awesome. The rest of the service for me is very poor, waiting are it so horrible even though that you have already appointment on the spot they didn't even consider that you have to wait in ling for long long time. Plus they should put something cover in waiting line to be check in it was so hot summer time and they didn't have something to cover under the sun during summer. It seems if the appointment that you have to pick for you to zip-lining it doesn't exists. Useless read more
