Ecozip Adventures Waiheke
Perched on Waiheke Island just a short ferry ride from the city, EcoZip Adventures strings three giant ziplines above a working vineyard and ancient native forest canopy. The three-hour experience includes a commentated pick-up and drop-off tour of the island, so the journey to the lines is part of the day itself.

What it is
Guides walk the group through each run before anyone clips in, with a focus on safety that reviewers consistently single out. Between ziplines, a guided forest walk covers local flora and fauna — the kind of detail that turns a thrill into something more lasting for curious kids.
EcoZip holds both a Qualmark Gold award and the 100% Pure New Zealand award for its conservation and ecological restoration work, including an on-site nursery propagating native seedlings. The experience suits families with children confident enough to handle a zipline; groups of ten or more can book tailored packages.

We had the best time today! A huge thank you to Poppy and Marcus, who went above and beyond to make our experience absolutely epic. The humour throughout the day was a real highlight, and the views were simply next level.I'm absolutely petrified of heights, but I was surprised by how peaceful the experience felt. There was something incredibly calming about being up above the forest and taking it all in.A special thank you to Poppy and Marcus for helping us when we got a little stuck on our journey over. Everything was so well organised, and Poppy shared some fascinating facts on our walk back, which we all loved.Our kids, aged 9 and 10, haven't stopped talking about it and are already asking when we can do it all again!Thank you for an unforgettable day. From the Trotter Family
Fraser and Poppy are the best! They made sure to make everyone feel comfortable and engaged. They got to know everyone individually which makes it a much more personable experience. The zip lines were great and a lot of fun. Waiheke Island is beautiful and the views throughout the zip-line adventure were incredible. I highly recommend this tour!

The guides were outstanding—knowledgeable, professional, and full of energy. They didn’t just take us ziplining; they shared fascinating stories about the native forest, local wildlife, and the conservation efforts that make EcoZip so special. The zipline experience itself was incredible. Soaring above the lush canopy with breathtaking views all around was both exhilarating and unforgettable. The guides ensured everyone felt comfortable and confident, making the experience enjoyable for first-time adventurers and thrill-seekers alike. What truly set EcoZip apart was the perfect balance of adventure, education, and genuine hospitality. The passion of the team was evident throughout the tour, and their attention to detail made the entire experience seamless and memorable.

And my family & I were extremely grateful for the memorable lifetime adventure and unforgettable experience EcoZip!!!😃 Wishing you and your company continuous success in your future endeavours! Till we meet again. If my family were to visit New Zealand. Waiheke Island Zip line will be on the top of the list.. take care!! Thank you once again. A humble request!! Perhaps have video coverage in the future, not disturbing the Mother Earth of course!!
What a fantastic experience! This was a surprise for my mum for her 65th birthday and even though she was scared, the team, Poppy and Fraser (Hamish) made her feel comfortable and safe.
