Zip Yosemite

Had a great time with Zip Yosemite! We enjoyed every minute. I was pretty scared most of the time because of the height, but our guides helped put me at ease and made me feel comfortable! I would highly recommend them. All of the staff is really nice and knowledgeable.

We arrived early after a 3-​hour drive but were still met in the parking lot by the repsentative who was incredibly nice and took time to talk with us and share history of the area and their business. He even offered my diabetic husband one of his own granola bars!!! The team is incredibly professional, completely safety conscious yet so down to earth we all had a great time!!!

We had a great time zipping. The staff was all fantastic — very friendly, informative, funny dudes. Stephen and Tyler were great guides. They’re very professional and clearly know what they’re doing.
The zipping itself was really fun, although I think I had unreasonably high expectations for how fast and fun it would be. It was a lot slower and not as exciting as I thought it’d be. It’s a bit pricey, but it’s reasonable considering you have 2 guides for a max of 6 people and the zipping lasts about an hour.

Had a wonderful zip line adventure. The staff was very professional & fun. Beautiful course high up in the trees. Can’t wait to go again

This is our first time ziplining. We had a great time. The guides were all nice and helpful. We brought two dogs with us as we planned on hiking in the area afterwards. What truly amazed us was they offered to not only watch our dogs but also to walk our dogs while we were ziplining! Absolutely superb service. Our dogs were happy and tired when we returned to the yurt.

Found out about Zip Yosemite through a Living Social deal. I was weary at first as this place is still fairly new but I am so glad I bought the deal as the whole adventure was amazing! From the drive up to the friendly staff and guides it made the experience that much greater. The zip lines give you a rush, the bridges you cross scare but thrill you and repelling causes your stomach to leave but boy will I not forget this experience! The group we went with had a total of 4 people plus two guides. The guides were professional, knowledgeable and fun while we embarked on this new adventure. Always made sure we were comfortable and knew that we were safe and they even brought water along for us! I would recommend everyone trying Zip Yosemite at least once! I look forward to trying out their other zip lining locations around the country! :) Thanks for an awesome time guys!

Zipping was so much fun! Stephen and Tyler are just great people to spend time with — and with their good guidance, we soared the heights and forgot the troubles of the world… We all loved it! After zipping, we went on the one-​mile Shadow of the Giants hike, surrounded by Sequoias. I couldn’t have imagined a better day!

Had a blast! Was nervous at first due to my fear of heights but the amazing views quickly put my mind at ease. Friendly and witty guides who appear to enjoy their job.

I was camping with a group of friends and 16 of us decided to check this place out!
We got the group rate and was split into 2 groups of 8 with 5 guides total.
We geared up and walked about 5 minutes up the hill to our first zipline.
The first 2 were a little boring and meant to be a warmup.
The middle 2 get a little better and the guides point out nearby trees and leaves you can touch while you’re ziplining.
They also teach you how to position your body to go fast or to slow down, as well as how to steer.
The last 2 were def the best!
The last one goes over a lake and is the longest and fastest one, so fun!
There were also 3 wooden bridges we had to cross, which I really didn’t like and would prefer not to do but I did them anyways.
There were also 2 dropdowns, kind of like rappalling when you rock climb.
The jump from that is kind of scary, but otherwise it isn’t too bad.
The course is laid out nicely, with one thing leading to another, with minimal walks in between.
We took a break in the middle to eat sandwiches we packed and the guides provided cold water!
The guides were fun to hang out with and would give us random info and facts about the area around us.
We were pretty loud and roudy and some of the guys in our group started placing bets on who could zip line and run across the bridges the fastest, and the guides didn’t get annoyed at all… in fact they encouraged it!
Because the entire group consisted of our friends, it wasn’t bad waiting for our turn to zip because it was fun watching everyone else do it too.
The entire tour lasts about 3 hours and time flew right by!
Overall a great time and I would def recommend!

Our Family of five (three children ranging in ages from 9 – 12) experienced zip lining for the first time during our family vacation. Our guides — Steven and Tyler, were very safety conscientious, but expressed the need to have FUN! Steven and Tyler were very knowledgeable about the surrounding area and pointed out different points of interest along the tour. The 1,000 plus foot long zip line is the best, as you can see your reflection in the water below.
We have already recommended this company to co-​workers and friends who are traveling to Yosemite in the near future.
Thanks again Zip Yosemite for a memorable family excursion!

My brother and I went yesterday, and it was amazing! It was totally worth the drive from Visalia to Oakhurst, and a beautiful one at that! I called on Saturday and left a message wanting to make a last minute appointment for a tour. Tami called me back Sunday morning and was more than accommodating to book my brother and I for the 10AM tour on Monday.
When you check in, you sign a form basically saying that you need to listen to your tour guides, and you will be safe. I know, it’s totally a given; but there are always several people who don’t. My mother was terribly concerned knowing that her two children will situated at 90 – 100 ft. in the air. Thankfully they reassured my mother that safety was their number one concern at Zip Yosemite. And that they’ve never had anyone who has fallen off, or been seriously injured.
Steven and Tyler were our guides, they made us feel completely safe; and were also very courteous, and we shared some laughs here and there. My brother and I have a love/​hate relationship with heights, and the sky bridges and some of the dropdowns intimidated us the most. Both of them were very patient with us, reassuring that we’ll always be connected to the trees and that they won’t let anything happen. They were also very knowledgeable with the area; pointing out specific trees, landmarks from Yosemite National Park that you can see while zip lining. Steven in particular was very familiar with the biology, and history.
Overall, my brother and I had the time of our lives. It was raining while we were zip lining which upped the ante, and added another element to our experience! They provided bottles of water, along with water resistant jackets for us to borrow to keep us warm while it was raining. My mother was thrilled to see her children come back in one piece, along with huge smiles plastered across their faces, lol. I would definitely recommend this place, they take great care of you every step of the way. The only thing that I would do different is not making a last minute appointment, haha.

I would concur with all the previous positive reviews. The course is really fun. They are very safety conscious, always hooked into something, even while waiting for the next zipline. My wife is afraid of heights and made a last minute decision to try it. They were patient with her until she got the knack of it and she had a blast. Tyler and Steven were our guides.

We took the 2pm tour on Saturday and had a blast. The tour was very safe and the guides were very helpful. The only problem I had was at one part of the tour I got eaten alive by mosquitos. But other that that we had a great time.

Awesome experience! Safe, fun, friendly. My girlfriend and I picked a perfect day to go. The air, temperature, everything was perfect, zipping around in the trees for 2 ½ to 3 hrs, punctuated by 2 rappels, and walking across a few rope bridges. Suitable for all ages above 65 pounds. Steve and Tyler were my our trip leaders and made the experience very enjoyable. Will be repeating with my nieces and nephews.
It’s a good idea to plan for time to enjoy other activities in the area. We went for Redwood hikes before and after, and it made for a great day. Nelder Grove is nice. Some of the largest redwoods in the world are in this area.

This was so much fun! There are six zip lines and you zip through the trees. The last zip line is 1000 feet and my favorite. Our guides, Steven and Tyler, were helpful and knowledgeable. They took care of everything (for example I didn’t have to worry about using a hand break) and I felt very safe.

My girlfriend and I just went this past weekend and we had a blast! Definitely worth the drive from SF! We booked the 2pm tour so that we would have enough time to get there. If you get there early enough like we did, there’s other things to do while waiting for the rest of the group to show up like hike, basketball, volleyball and other sports.
The entire course consists of 6 ziplines, 3 bridges, and 2 dropdowns. The first couple ziplines are warm up ones, so they’re kinda short. But the last 2 are fast and goes pretty far! The dropdowns aren’t bad at all, it’s just the jump off the ledge is the scary part. The bridges were fun and the last one was a bit challenging because there was a set of suspended stairs at the very end.
Overall, we had a great time. Perfect weather, our group only had 6 people so the wait between obstacles wasn’t long at all, and it was all around great time! They were nice enough to let me borrow their GoPro helmet mount because I brought my GoPro but didn’t have any mounts. Definitely check this place out!

Customer service is good.
The wait is too long. In the very beginning we were very excited, but the wait for the whole group to zip makes you really bored.
I would probably recommend to have smaller groups more often…
Overall, it was fun. But again, I wouldn’t do the same trip from San Francisco one more time. Simply not worth it.

Took my wife to Zip Yosemite for her birthday using a Groupon we had that got us in for half price. Overall we had a great time! Guides were fun, courteous, and very knowledgeable. Everything was high quality and very safe, so no worries there.
The course was four ziplines and two «lowers» (just a line going straight down, sort of like rappelling). The first two ziplines were fairly short, but the last two were significantly longer. My only complaint in general was how little of the three hour tour was actually spent ziplining. The majority of the time was spent waiting for our turn to begin, others to finish, or transitioning from one site to another. Granted the rope walks and «lowers» were fun, but I’d hoped for more than a few minutes ziplining over the course of three hours.

Tyler and Brian were great tour guides! This was such a fun experience, and we felt completely safe. Definitely recommend Zip Yosemite — it’s a little pricey, but the Living Social or Groupon deals make it half price!

OMG! What an awesome experience we had!!! We went this past Sunday and used the Living Social deal, as I would of never heard about this place. Im so glad we did. This was our first time Zip lining. We zipped about 6 – 7 zips, rapelled 2x, walked over 3 sky bridges. There was about 8 people total in our group and really nice people from all over California. Felt completely safe too.
Steven, Tyler and Brian were great tour guides and very helpful. As one person said, Steven was very knowledgeable about the area– history and biology. They brought water for us, as this was a warm day, but beautiful weather– in the 80’s. Flies and bees were in full force right now, no one got stung though. Love the last zip!
Definitely wear long pants and good hiking/​tennis shoes. Definitely not sore afterwards and I think anyone can do this, no matter old you are. For kids, I would call, if there is an age minimum. Great area too! Thanks again.
