Nicely organised with well timed stops, comfortable yet fast speedboat & good snorkeling gear & kayak. Special shoutout to our tour guide Tutu & all his team, who apart from guiding & taking care of safety, were courteous, helpful and also took great photos! Tutu's sense of humor was a cherry on cake!

Hiiii KLOOK CLIENTS! Just so you know, yesterday (24th Dec 2024), we've decided to go for the "TREE BRIDGE ZIPLINE". IT.WAS.FUN ! We're family of 7 ! 3 adults (in our 50's), 3 young adults (in their 20's) & 1 boy( 13yrs old). All of us tried the Tree Bridge Zipline. The Tree Bridge Zipline cafe view was SPECTACULAR !! And the zipline was scary yet fun. I'm acrophobic but I managed to conquer my fear..LOL ! We got free drinks (1 drink each)..Latte, Cappuccino, Fizzy drinks, juices...whatever you want. they've for it. (well..of course you have to choose from what they have there). We 7, had loads of fun and we loved it ! No regrets ! TRY IT !! And the price was much better than others, tbh. THANK YOU KLOOK AND THANKS TO THE OPERATORS that managed it. 1 thing though...I wished we got to snap more pics... Make sure, you bring your own hp that you can tie around your neck, so you can snap nice videos whilst on the zipline. I forgot to bring mine, so, I had to keep my hp in the locker that they have. The operators took videos for us though, but I still wished I had my own.. Thanks again !

Located deep in the mountains and forests, the instructors are very careful in leading everyone to play the zip line. The difficulty of the 8 zip lines is gradually increased, so people can quickly adapt and enjoy the fun!
