About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- kdanders0 contributionsFun!!!I wasn’t too sure about this as I was totally terrified but as soon as I got going it was the best experience and I absolutely loved it. I felt extremely safe and the staff gave clear instructions and gave me confidence. Thank you Frank for the encouragement and a great time!Written October 4, 2019
- SuzD20130 contributionsGreat for a first timerI have to admit, when it comes to things like this, I normally leave the kids to it and sit back and watch. This time around, I decided to join in and the kids were delighted. After a daunting walk up to the top, I admit I did nearly turn back when it was my turn, but since my 8 year old had already been, I took a deep breath. The journey was fairly tame. I did enjoy it, it was over too soon. A great introduction to this and I will really consider those larger steeper ones for sure.Written August 9, 2019
- Cuisine_et_Voyage0 contributionsGood for your 1st ziplineThis was an awesome experience. The zip line is exhilarating, although its probably nothing for adrenaline freaks. It was not too short and rides fast and the starting height was at a perfect height. This could be little daunting if this is your first time. But it soo worth it. You will be more worried about the walk up because it felt unsure and unstable. The staff are young but explained everything. There is weight limit (260 lbs) and plenty of stairs to walk. Just remember to use both hands at the end and lean back.Written August 7, 2019
- Global062012400340 contributionsZiplineAwesome staff!!!! The ride was awesome. Not a long lineup, everything was great. Highly recommended!Written May 31, 2019
- Svetlana V0 contributionsShort rideIt was fun but it's pretty lame and short. Better in summer: if you fall down at least in the water)) Could be cheaperWritten October 6, 2018
- Alexandra W0 contributionsFunMy guy had his first zip line experience and the scouter offered the zip for the kid price! It was a blast to see oldport from a birds view. I highly recommend checking it out and getting your adrenaline rush on.Written September 9, 2018
- TeamWard0 contributionsAwesome rushone go was all you need while visiting the old port area, it takes about 20 seconds to cross the water at what seems very fast and then its all over, awesome fun.Written August 27, 2018
- tonymercieca0 contributionsZip line fun!!Not for the faint. It’s pretty high up there. Awesome rush though!! Your buckled in pretty darned good. However, they also do something called “quick jump” from the same platform. They could have told us that!! We climbed to the top of the platform which is way the hell up there and just as we were one floor from the top some kid fell off the building directly in front of us. I frickin freaked out. I thought he fell off the building. He “quick jumped” off the damned thing!!! Lmao. It was pretty awesome. Just be aware of the quick jumpers.Written July 28, 2018
- Judith B0 contributionsOnce was enoughIt wasn't that this was bad. It just didn't give my teenage boys the thrill they had in mind. They wouldn't do it again, for example. It is high up, and the first drop gave them a jolt, but then it was all downhill, so to speak.Written July 25, 2018
- John W0 contributionsgood but not worth 20$ (+tax)I am 40 and still love adrenaline fuelled activities. This zip line is fun for something to do, but I would expect a little more for that amount of money. You can see it from the ground and watch people go before you pay your fee, so you know what you are paying for.Written July 5, 2018
- Kevin A0 contributionsGreat fun and only $20Got to do it if you are in the area. Zip wires are great fun and this one is quite long and crosses the harbour adjacent to the big wheel. What's not to like, and cheap too.Written October 8, 2017
- Dan G0 contributionsFamily funWent with my 4 kids and an out-of-town guest. They wouldn't let my 4-year-old go, because of the relatively strong winds. My 6-, 7-, and 9-year-olds all went, and had the time of their lives. They made me let them go a second time. It was wonderful to see my 6-year-old conquer his fears and go. But this old-timer was done after one round. Great way to spend an afternoon.Written October 6, 2017
- Jean-Philippe M0 contributionsCool activity in the old Port.You could go there with your family or with a bunch of friends during a bachelor bash you would have a blast either way. Enjoy!Written October 1, 2017
- David B0 contributionsAwesomeReally cool activity , not too expensive and really well located in the heart of the old port. Staff is helpfulWritten October 1, 2017
- marcellobeaud0 contributionsVieux port with friendsTo do list in Mtl! Super fun and nice view! Thrill ride and lots of laugh! 5 stars!!! Would recomand!!Written September 30, 2017

What a great zipline. It was well organised. The fitting of the harness was well done and you felt very secure. It was quite a climb up the stairs to the launch. You were attached to safety wire while the harness was fitted to the zipline. The instructions were clear and precise. It was an exhilarating ride with time to look around. You built up quite a speed approaching the finish but it was well managed. There is an opportunity to have your photo taken at the end. I am so glad we did this, great fun and not to expensive 24.99CAD each plus 5CAD for the photo

Very well run operation. Seems like a pushy sell job at first but then you realize that it really is as good as they say. Not frightening at all, except the steep climb up. Everything is reinforced well however so you feel safe. The staff are efficient and professional. I have to give a special shout out to them for doing an incredible job of managing and assisting my daughter who is ambulatory but has significant physical disabilities. They were understanding and patient and couldn't have made her feel any more welcome. Both kids and I loved the experience and will remember it as a highlight of our trip to Montreal. The kids are already plotting their return, lol!
Price was $15pp when we visited. If you go, keep in mind that you cannot use your cellphone during the experience. The only way to film your "ride" is to pay $5 for an armband that you put your phone into (which is actually not bad, in hindsight I wish I had done this :)).
Best to wear athletic gear (including your shoes) to ensure a comfortable ride and women should tie their long hair back.
Highly recommended! Enjoy!

Je suis aller a la tyrolienne avec des amis et c'était malade! Il y en a parmis nous qui avaient vraiment peur mais les employés étaient vraiment bon pour nous rassurer. Même ceux qui ont eu peur voulaient le refaire dès la fin. A faire ou refaire définitivement!!
I went to the zipline with a few friends of mine and we had a blast! Some of us were scared but the employees were great at making us feel secure. Even those who were scared wanted to do it again as soon as it ended. Would definitely recommend for all!!

Took the family zip lining today, not first timers but the first for this place.
Very friendly staff and very helpful, we felt very safe from the get go with the equipment.
Look folks it lasted 25-30 seconds at most, nice view but over really quickly, depending at what time you go and what day, wait time could be anywhere from 15 to 30min, lots of stairs to climb to make it to the top.
Price yes it is very pricy $25 plus taxes for adults …for a 30 sec ride... so it's a been there done that and won't return, kind of a tourist trap.
For locals, go on Tuango or quebecattractions.com you will find discount coupons savings of up to $10 off .
when your done , they take a picture and it's yours for $5 a 4x6 print...optional of course.
If you want to film yourself , selfie , on the way down , they rent a pouch for your phone for $5 more so you won't drop it , unless you go to the discount sites it will be included.
So to sum it up, real fun , good adrenaline rush , but for a 1 time 30 seconds drop not worth it ...
hope this was helpful

It was a fun zipline to go on, but a tad bit overpriced and from all the advertising, it seemed like a multi-line/way longer experience. Nice view of Old Port, but it was over quick and the line had been somewhat long. I'd say go once to try it, or if you want a taste of ziplining without having to go to a tree trekking place, it's worth a try, but disappointing if you like long ziplining tours.

We had a accident on the zipline. My 7 yo son went first and I was launched a minute later. While on the ride, I saw my son was stuck somewhere in between the middle and the end of the ride. We violently collided and my son was badly hurt in the lower back, perhaps left with a permanent damage. We ended at the hospital to get an xray and following up with osteopathy. They clearly have a communication problem in between the departure and arrival towers. Think twice before leaving your life in between theIr hands and signing a responsibility waiver. At your own risks.

Hi Martin,
As discussed in person and on the phone, we take this situation very seriously and all measures have been taken to assure that an incident like yours never occurs again.
Even though we received almost 300 000 people since our opening 6 years ago and this is clearly an exceptional situation, we understand that there is always room for improvement and we are acting accordingly.
It’s important for me to mention that the incident rate for our attraction is 0.0016% and that we by far exceed industry standards.
As you know, we are not talking about safety negligence but a human error and it has been well identified.
Since your visit, our team has worked efficiently to put in place a new system that includes gates and traffic lights.
We are proud of the new system that we worked hard to put together and we would love to show it to you in person to assure your full satisfaction.
You are always welcome to reach out to me.
Sincerely,
Sam

Cool view, fun ride, and staff were great. It’s an extremely expensive minute of your life though. There are better, cheaper ways to get a good view. Overall, pretty fun though short.

Me and my boyfriend visited Montreal last week. We couldn't wait to go on the Zip-line as we have zip-lined a few times before down South and in NS and it's normally a great experience. I had read there is a weight restriction and being a chubby gal I was hesitant but knew I was under the limit. I was kind of surprised at the weight restrictions as other zip-lines we've gone on you could have sent a car across on them. We were greeted by a friendly guy who told us to enjoy the Zip. We filled out the required waiver giving all our personal info and signed the paperwork. Then a lady approached me and said "come over here I have to weigh you". I looked over and saw a scale on a mound of dirt and said "excuse me?" She said "my manager told me we have to weigh you" I told her to forget it as I was embarrassed by her approach. She went on to say because of the wind the weight restrictions have changed and I would need to be weighed to ensure I was under the limit. I again said I wasn't interested and walked away. Once again she said "just come over here and we need to weigh you." I was becoming upset as other people could hear her and I was no longer interested in going. She then asked my boyfriend if he was still going to go. Of course he did not. I wish I had caught her name so I could publish it in this review. Now don't get me wrong I completely understand restrictions however it's all in your approach. Especially woman to woman I would have expected a bit more tact. In the future try quietly letting a person know there are certain weight restrictions and in order to ensure a persons safety there are steps to go through to make sure you're eligible to zip. That lady shouldn't be representing your company. I can honestly say I've never been more upset and embarrassed in my life.
Might I also add I'm sure the zip-line itself would have been great as everyone looked like they were having a great time.

If you have and hour to spare this is an inexpensive ride. The thrill of being zipped along the river is exciting. The have an option (for a fee) for you to take pictures with your camera as you take the zip line with old Montreal in the background. Lots of fun!!

Our children had wanted to do the zip wire so (and I’m still not sure how) I ended up joining them for 21 to 23 seconds of sheer adrenaline rush. I hate heights so climbing the stairway to the top of the 80 foot tower was in itself a challenge. The first few seconds of the 1,200 foot run were some what terrifying and then the balance became rather enjoyable. Personally I think it is reasonably priced, but this was very much a holiday treat and not something we would do every day.

Hi-
I booked ahead for Wednesday, June 22nd. The reservation does not have a time on it. Do we just show up at any time? If so, what are the times of operation?
Thank you!

Yes, I believe you can. You can rent an armband holder for $5 for a phone to film, but from what I saw there were not any restrictions on device recording.

It says this adventure price starts from $15. Are there different packages? I mean are there different types of activities or packages and the prices are accordingly? Can I see the package details? We are a group of around 10 people coming to Montreal on August 1st and 2nd, is there any group discount available?
