Summer is winding down and the kiddos are going back to school. We have had a great summer zipping with everyone and hope you all enjoyed your tours! August has always been our slowest month, with the hustle and bustle of settling into new school routines. We will start getting busy again in September and October so be sure to book early to secure your spots. Fall is a beautiful time to zip at Eco Zipline Tours.

The beginning of fall, 2011.

Molly and Yousef were excellent guides.

Molly and Yusef, our guides, were very friendly and I felt safe with them! A cool experience so I recommend it. I was a bit afraid at the start but relaxed after the second cable line. I think the bottle of water should have been included in the price of the tour. It cost $1.00 and it would have been nice not to have to pay for it.

It's a HOT one!

Woo! It is HOT in Missouri this summer, huh? This is a friendly reminder to all of our customers to always stay as hydrated as possible before their tour!!
We will always have ice cold water for $1.00 in our office or you're welcome to bring your own 16oz plastic (light-weight) water bottle. We provide the water bottle holders that can attach to your zipline harness.

Positive Feedback from our Living Social customers

I just discovered that Living Social gives our customers the chance to review us after their visit. We love hearing feedback, good or bad, so are thrilled with this feature. So far, we have only had one thumbs down (they thought it would be more exciting and decided not to go on to the High Flyer - but they did say we were very friendly and professional!) So far, we have over 25 thumbs up! Our guides seriously are some of the best around.

Here are some of the comments we received so far:
"we had the best tour guides ever! We had so so much fun! Callie and Christian were a blast. we will be back!!!!"

"We had a wonderful time. Randy and Nick were our guides through the tour and they were careful & patient and made it a lot of fun. Our group was an older couple with our twenty something kids, and we were joined by a family with young children. Though I am afraid of heights, I found it to be a great experience." (We do not have anyone named Randy who works with us but we appreciate the feedback!)

"Awesome! FUN! Friendly employees! Money well spent!"

"The staff was very professional and friendly. They made it fun and I felt very safe in their capable hands. I would definitely go back!"

"It was my first time to Zipline. It was a wonderful experience. The people who own and run it were very friendly and professional. I felt very safe."

"It was AWESOME!! Friendly, helpful staff. Very well run facility. Will go again!"

"They were professional and the guides impressed us both. Dan was great."


Here are some pictures from this past weekend:

A Busy April
















"Here we go Landon!"

High Five after Landon's first zip.







...because, sometimes, photos tell the story better than words. Thank you to all who visited us in April. Also, thank you for being so understanding with our weather related cancellations this month. Let's hope for a beautiful sunny May!

Who is..Zeus?

If you have been to Eco Zipline Tours, you have certainly met our 6 year old pug, Zeus (Willy Z McGee Seper..he's a Cards fan!) He roams freely at our course, though you will most often find him snoozin' and snorin' on his big bed, behind our desk. He is our beloved mascot and though he may seem bored with the job at times, he does a wonderful job. He is the sweetest dog and we're blessed to have him.. and we know our customers agree! We get asked daily if he ziplines and the answer is YES! When we first opened Eco Zipline Tours, we never wanted to leave him locked up in the office so we'd let him run the course with our tours. Zeus has always gone on runs with his owner so he has always been in great shape. However, after a few weeks, it became apparent that his little legs were working a little too hard. Not wanting to leave him out of the excitement, we decided to make him a harness. It was really out of necessity. He absolutely loves ziplining - often going for his harness as soon as we open the door in the morning.  As far as we know, Zeus is the worlds only ziplining pug and that just make our already super-awesome dog just that much cooler.

The Fine Print:
Unfortunately, we cannot let your animals zipline at Eco Zipline Tours - Zeus just wouldn't be cool with that! We have been asked many times if Zeus can go on tour with our customers. Sadly, Zeus does not go on tours with customers. Ziplining with him does take a lot of extra time and we do not want our customers to have to wait. If you visit us on a slow day and we have the time, we would be happy to take Zeus down our first line so you can see him go. Also, a disclaimer, we never send Zeus down the zipline by himself. He is always hooked up to the line in his secure harness, and we are always holding him. If you own a zipline or have one at home, please never send your animals on it alone.
