grab007 Posted March 2, 2014 #1 Share Posted March 2, 2014 Hi! Trying to figure out how much time will be required for the zip line. I've booked the time for 12 noon but I need to know how much time to allow for it. I need to know from anyone who's done it how long the whole process takes. Thanks for the help!

smeck Posted March 2, 2014 #2 Share Posted March 2, 2014 Around 90 minutes. You do a small training zip line before doing the big one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Lionesss Posted March 2, 2014 #4 Share Posted March 2, 2014 We were booked on the second time slot, but when we went looking for the place a couple passengers did not show up in time and we were moved up to the first time slot. We signed waivers --watched video--got our gear Went to practice run Rode all terrain trucks up hill out of RCI area Got another quick safety talk on top and Down we went. Whole process took 90 min. Would do it again in a second!!! Sea Ya Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eng23 Posted March 2, 2014 #5 Share Posted March 2, 2014 Plan on at least 90 minutes. Sometimes it goes a little quicker and sometimes a little longer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spanky Posted March 2, 2014 #6 Share Posted March 2, 2014 It was fun...the training zip was rougher than the main one...make sure you take in the view when you are up top. I couldn't see the other end of the line and right before you go you are hanging above the trees...i believe the whole zip ride took 60 seconds... dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrD Posted March 2, 2014 #7 Share Posted March 2, 2014 That's why it doesn't interest me, 90 minutes for a one minute ride. That's a lot of time considering you're at the stop for only about 7 hours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justchar Posted March 3, 2014 #8 Share Posted March 3, 2014 I will be doing the zip line in June. I was wondering if they take pictures of you while you're on it or if you can take your own camera while on it? Thanks for any help!

Rare Lionesss Posted March 3, 2014 #9 Share Posted March 3, 2014 You can take your own camera, but it must be strapped to your wrist not arround your neck.............they dont want any freaky accidents if its arround your neck. RCI photographers take a picture as you come in for a landing. It is put in a neat (jacket) Portfolio that has all the details of the zip line...........actually done nice.........worth the investment.......... It will be in your photo packet on board.

Lucibelle Posted March 3, 2014 #10 Share Posted March 3, 2014 Yes, they take a picture of you once you land. It will be available on the ship in the photo gallery. My husband took our little Flip video camera with him down the zip line; actually got a decent video of the ride down just by holding it, but there's really no time to focus or take pictures...once they let you go, you fly!

gordiej Posted May 13, 2014 #11 Share Posted May 13, 2014 (edited) Yes, they take a picture of you once you land. It will be available on the ship in the photo gallery.I assume they charge extra for it? 90+ minutes, 1 minute of action, nearly $100 and they can't throw in a lousy picture for free?!? :mad: I'd love to do it but seems like a colossal waste of time and money. I spent a bit less than that and got to paraglide for a half hour in Chamonix right in front of Mont Blanc. Edited May 13, 2014 by gordiej Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ken at the beach Posted May 13, 2014 #12 Share Posted May 13, 2014 As I had never zip lined before it was one of those things that was fun to do once and I'm glad I did it but wouldn't do it a second time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grab007 Posted May 13, 2014 Author #13 Share Posted May 13, 2014 Thank you all for the info! Yeah its pricey but I don't know if I'll have another opportunity as there are fewer birthdays ahead of me than behind! Thanks again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
