Tree Limin' Extreme Zipline St. Thomas — Attraction in Saint Thomas

Went zip lining during our cruise so we booked through carnival. It was amazing. The staff were very courteous and patient. The place was really nice and looked legit. When we first arrived we were introduced and informed of safety rules. We were then given a chance to use the restrooms because afterwards we were to be harnessed for about the next 2 hours. Next we were fitted into our harness and hard hats, the staff were super patient and helped us with all the equipment. You had to have close toe shoes - we were walking outside in dirt, up stone stairwells, up stairs for each zip line location and even across bridges. You were allowed to wear backpacks, and video/take pictures during your zipline, 1 family with us had a little boy and he was allowed to ride tandem with an adult. Next we were off to begin. First we had an introduction with a mock set up of the zipline with cables and how each time before we were sent off we would receive an inspection from the staff - all about safety. Then we began our zip-lining fun. We had 6 stations. Being that I had never zip-lined before I was really apprehensive and afraid I would make it across - all for nothing, they stated that in the case that you did not make it all the way across the staff was prepared to come and reel you in. The zip line experience was really cool, It was nice passing through the trees and seeing views of the ocean at some spots. The only scary part was crossing the bridge - it really swayed a lot. The further you got the more daring the take off became - the last three you could actually run and jump off into the zip. The 2 basic positions they taught us were the cradle like a cannonball position and lazy chair position. Midway they had a quick snack station which was nice because even though there was a nice breeze it was still warm. The last post you were able to go backwards and forwards and then they retrieved you and we returned to the beginning. I would definitely recommend the tour. As I said the staff were really nice, made it enjoyable, very informative about the island and making you laugh the entire time. I...

We were on the Royal Caribbean Freedom of the Seas ship and had this booked as our only excursion. I am deadly scared of heights as I fell off my roof and have breathing troubles when I look down and see how far up I am. My wife and I did this as we were celebrating 20 years married on the cruise and she was so worried about me as she knew my fears. After breathing heavy through the first flight of stairs climbing I was so ready to back out. We were with Leon and another guy as the worker(forgot his name). They went through everything and I was still scared. We had 8 people in our group from the ship and I watched all them go including my wife. They all knew I was scared and did not want to do this. Leon assured me I would be ok and it would be the most fun and to just take that step of confidence (easy to say I said you do this all the time). I was ready to back out even though he had me hooked up and ready to go. Then I heard the people from our cruise cheering for me on the other side. So I just took the one step like he said and I was like screaming wooooohoooooo through the trees. It was so awesome. I was last on the first one and first on the second one as it was that much fun. Even the worker said on the last one that I would not be screaming woooohoooo. The last one was more scarier than the first but I took that step of confidence and was woooooohooooooo pointing at the worker on the other end as I went by saying ha ha told you I would like it.

This was by far one of the most favorite excursions I have ever done and the guys were funny and awesome to be with it was to a pointe that we could not tell if they were joking or not. Would highly recommend this excursion to anyone wanting to try it. They do everything but jump for you. We are waiting till our next cruise to take our kids with us as they we so excited when I came home and told them how fun it was.

Also had to buy the shirt saying I survived as this is not the type of excursion I would choose based on my fear of heights. Go see them you...

We had an amazing day ziplining at Tree Limin' Extreme! A magical trip aboard the Disney Fantasy cruise ship brought us to St. Thomas, and we purchased the zipline tour port excursion package through the cruise line. I was certain we were in for a miserable day as a downpour came right as we were getting off the ship to board the taxis. By the time we reached Tree Limin' Extreme though, the rain had stopped and by the time we were in our gear the sun was back out and heralding a gorgeous island day.

Our zip guides Joseph and Shanee got all of our group of 10 into harnesses in short order and we had a quick truck ride to the first platform. Joseph and Shanee did a fantastic job of guiding us through the crucial safety information while making sure we were all having too much fun to worry about any last-minute jitters.

The entire course is across 6 different zip lines and two suspension bridges. We had unforgettable views of the ocean and the islands, and Joseph and Shanee told us so much about the history and landmarks of the island, as well as about the flora and fauna. We saw a few amazing specimens of iguana lounging in the treetops!

The last of the six ziplines is known as a "yo-yo" where, unlike the others, instead of going from platform to platform, you zip across and back again a few times until you settle in the middle. They roll out a handy club store-style metal staircase so you can unhook and descend.

This was truly an enjoyable experience, and I really appreciate Joseph, Shanee and all the staff for such a fantastic and...
