How People Describe Their Adventure
Fun and Professional
I took my 13 year old son to Kerfoot Canopy Tours in March of 2018 and he loved it! I'm a bit nervous about heights but their professional guides made me feel quite comfortable and secure.
Incredible Experience!
We had an incredible zip line experience at Kerfoot. Our guides were extremely professional and patient. Don't let the rural location concern you. It's worth the drive!
Rent a Go Pro
Great time and experience. Staff was fantastic. I highly recommend getting a go pro or renting one since phones/cameras are not allowed on the course. I will definitely be doing this again
