gizzie4 Posted January 31, 2013 #1 Share Posted January 31, 2013 Has anybody done the Antigua Canopy Adventure, if so is it as good as it sounds and could you DIY or would it be better to book via Thomson? Any advice appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
geomagot Posted January 31, 2013 #2 Share Posted January 31, 2013 have done this, but not in Antigua, we did this in St Lucia there are several wires, some are short, others are very long and high, there is a stony track between platforms and ladders to climb...some platforms are in the treetops its very hot, they supply bottled water at the base of the platforms dont wear shorts, the harnesses are very 'robust' if you have long hair you will need to wear the supplied 'showercap?' under your helmet they give you very strong leather workman’s gloves (slightly sweaty?) which you control your own rate of decent/speed with wear trainers or study shoes, otherwise you may find your flip flops on someone’s roof its great fun...luved it....ms magot didn’t complete the full circuit (got tired) followed the scenic path thru the forest instead hope this helps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whistlerbc Posted January 31, 2013 #3 Share Posted January 31, 2013 I done this in Canada which was excellent. Haven't done Antigua one but did see some of the wires which were over quite high ravines in places and it goes between lots of very lush trees. The people doing it appeared to be having a fantastic time. From what I could see this one looked like the one I done where the stops were built in to the end of the lines ie big air bags and not the glove stops. Could be wrong but thats how it appeared. Agree, sensible shoes and at least cropped trousers rather than shorts. You should be able to do this by yourself. Its down the south of the island and we saw it on the return from Nelsons dockyard en route to Jolly beach. If there are a few of you I would pre arrange a taxi from home to collect your party, do a quick tour on the way to zip slide, get him to wait for you then finish off at a beach for a beer.
