After being picked up at the cruise ship or your hotel, you will make your way to the zip line location in the heart of the rainforest. This hour-long ride will give you a chance to see some of the breathtaking scenery St. Lucia has to offer.
Upon arrival, you will be given your equipment as well as a demonstration and safety briefing. Then the fun begins as you rocket your way through a series of 11 zip lines, about 50 feet off the ground, with the length ranging from 83 feet to an astonishing 495 feet. But not to worry, the system of integrated cables and rigging is carefully designed to deliver an adrenaline rush safely.
In between "zips", you will have a unique view of the forest and the birds and plants that inhabit it, so don't forget your camera!!
After the thrill of the zip lines, you will have some time to shop for souvenirs or purchase a snack before the ride back to your ship or hotel.

ST. LUCIA...Jackson (Group Leader) |
| I of course always rave about ShoreTrips. The Rainforest Canopy Adventure - Everyone loved it. It was a lot of fun and people had a great time. I heard several comments about how much they liked the tours and how they appreciated having smaller groups, not the 200 people waiting in the cruiseline excursion lines. |

Our first excursion was in St. Lucia at the Rain Forest Ziplining trip. There were nine of us and we had a wonderful time. Our guide was terrific (but for the life of me I cannot remember his name). He was very informative and even showed us cocoa beans, coconut, on our way back. Very interesting tidbits. I want to give kudos to Jamal. I was only able to do 8 of the 11 ziplines due to the heat and humidity and Jamal walked with me back to the staging area and kept checking on me. All of the guys were great. This was a first time adventure for eight of us and the professionalism and safety measures was very reassuring. This WAS the highlight of our trip.

| My family have been ziplining on two other occasions, and neither one compares with the ease and safety we found with this excursion. The zips are all on double-lines with two pulleys and a safety strap for each rider. Crash helmets complete with hairnets were required for all, and we were even allowed and encouraged to take along our cameras! It was so efficient that there were no delays. Once we reached the park, suited up and had our briefing we were in the air flying through the lush rainforest canopy! A perfect alternative to cruise ship excursions that exclude your children for age restrictions. This was much safer than the last trips we took sponsored by the cruises! |

| Our tour with you was AMAZING! Our guide was so much fun, and was full of great facts and stories about your beautiful island. Everything went so smoothly, and the zip line was fabulous. Probably the highlight of our trip. We would gladly recommend your group for an excursion, please feel free to use this as a reference if you would like. What great memories we will always have! Thank you so much. |

| On March 15, 2010 my wife and I visited St. Lucia with some other friends. We normally book our shore excursions through the cruise line but after reading some of the testimonials on your web site we decided to book our zip-line trip through your company instead. There were three of us and I think a total of nine people that you picked up from our ship and took us directly to the rain forrest. Three of the passengers were only going along to watch. I don't remember the name of our driver or guide but they did a very good job. The guide was knowledgeable and personable as he entertained us to and from the ship during the approximately 40 minute drives. The staff at the facility was very courteous and it was apparent that customers safety and enjoyment were their main objectives. The facility itself is clean and run efficiently. Everyone in our group had a great time. I would recommend ShoreTrips to anyone that is traveling to St. Lucia. |

| We booked the zip-line tour in St. Lucia for New Years Day 2009. Response was prompt and friendly. Kristin offered her assistance in helping to make our trip memorable right from the start. I must admit we were a little apprehensive about booking a trip on-line without be familiar with the company. However, the experience was nothing short of outstanding. When we departed from the ship, a representative immediately greeted us and took us to our van where our last name was prominently placed on the dashboard, and our guide/driver Russell awaited. We traveled through St. Lucia and had an amazing tour learning about history and culture of St. Lucia. We stopped to taste a cocoa plant on the route. The zip-line tour itself was well organized, safe, and every person working there was polite and helpful. The tour was so much fun, even for those who were a little nervous. The trip back to the ship was again filled with stories about St. Lucia's history, and we stopped several times to take pictures. My husband and I honeymooned in St. Lucia 17 years ago, and we have seen an amazing transformation in the island, and its people. The zip-line tour through Shore Trips was just one example of the professionalism and outstanding service that was provided during out short stay in St. Lucia. We hope to to return to St. Lucia sometime before the next 17 years. |

| I just want to take a minute to express how much we enjoyed booking our excursions through ShoreTrips. Our zipline tour was magnificent! We had ziplined before and knew we'd love it, but the course in St Lucia was better than we ever dreamed. The staff was great, and one of them even grabbed our camera and took photos and video of the four of us. It was an unforgettable experience and we'd recommend it to anyone! We will definitely use ShoreTrips in the future and we will recommend it to everyone we know. Your prices are far better than those offered by the cruise lines, and the level of service is fantastic. In fact, my brother and his future wife have already been looking at your excursions for their honeymoon in July. Thank you so much for all of the help you provided to us. We truly appreciate it. |

| We have just returned from a Caribbean cruise during which we took one of your excursions - the zip wire in St Lucia. We had a fantastic time - the children voted it the best excursion ever. We were picked up at the dock by Felix - he was the best - an excellent, friendly and informative driver - we can't praise him enough. The zip wiring was well organised and special thanks go to Kirt for helping me do the last four wires. Would thoroughly recommend it. Thank you - the Firth family |

Just came back from our cruise and the Rainforest Canopy ZipLine Adventure in St. Lucia was one the best adventures that we have taken. The rainforest in St. Lucia is beautiful! It was a huge adrenaline rush for us! We were expecting 6 ziplines. When we arrived they had added more lines since we booked. There were a total of 11 ziplines and two rope bridges. Wow! Even so, we felt safe at all times. I must commend our guide, Chubby. He was the best! He made stops so we could take pictures and even stopped at a waterfall.He was very knowledgable of the history and the flora/fauna of the island. He knew when to arrive at the zipline location so as to avoid the cruise line crowds. I will definitely book with ShoreTrips for any future excursions. We got a better rate than the cruise line and much more personalized service! Thank you! One more thing...don't forget to have an ice cold Piton beer after you're done ziplining. You'll need it!
