We arrived early as needed and checked in. During the check in process we weighed in and my 4 kids were all good to go! Unfortunately I was just a few pounds over the limit and my option was to ride “man-dem” with one of the guides. I wasn’t going to miss this experience with my kids so “man-dem” it is! I was asked if I wanted blondes or red heads for guides and the answer was was obvious: red heads. They’re crazy. I know a few. Chris R and Matt were our assigned guides and they were super efficient, safe, and had great sense of humor. When I imagined myself having fun with a couple of red heads this wasn’t what I had in mind. Chris and Matt didn’t disappoint though. Chris had the softest hands. He said he uses coca butter and moonshine. Keeps his hands smooth for the clients and his beard looking sharp. I never did find the flashlight in his pocket he kept talking about though.
Matt was amazing too. I knew from our first ride down the zip line we’d be best buds. As we rode down the first line there was a slight nibble on my ear. Apparently that comes with the package I bought. In the 6th line, the longest of the tour, Matt suggested we face each other and I obliged. As we headed down the line, we locked eyes and legs. It was magical. I’ll never forget his mustache. It’s so soft.
In all seriousness, these dudes were awesome guides and the experience was amazing. 10/10 would do again. The views were great, zip lines were safe afaik, everything was clean and looked very well maintained. Hats off to Chris and Matt, they were super knowledgeable and led a great tour.
