Meet the Rotorua Ziplining Legends

Step behind the scenes and meet the heart and soul of Rotorua Canopy Tours!

A group of extraordinary individuals who make every adventure unforgettable. Our team is not just a group of professionals; we’re a close-knit family attached by a shared passion for nature, adventure, and caring about people. 

Regardless of our backgrounds, every Rotorua Zipline guide undergoes an intensive induction program and participates in ongoing training with different guiding tiers. We have several guides who have reached our 1000 Tours Club, and a few legends have even reached the incredible 2000 Tours League!  

Proud

Genuine

We’re actively involved in every way because it takes our village to operate this venture! You’ll find the General Manager picking up guests, Guides doing social media, the Marketing Manager helping guests park and the Customer Experience Crew planning schedules for groups.

Each of us, with our own compelling tales, is dedicated to ensuring your Rotorua zipline adventure is nothing short of extraordinary. From guiding you safely through the canopy to sharing insightful information and inspiring positive change, we’ll show you how good an adventure in nature can be! 

Here we are, the faces, the legends that ignite the magic of Rotorua Canopy Tours..
