FlyZone No age limit, but must be 55" tall & not over 220#, no open toed shoes, open 9-3:30, closed Mondays, afternoon less crowded due to cruise ship traffic, mornings better on the weekend, €40 pp. FlyZone Extreme, must be 18 yrs, €60 pp. Info from a friend. I have not been to Loterie Farm, but everyone raves about it....pool, food, etc.

The food is very good and the setting is lovely - both the pool and cabanas, as well as the restaurant itself though we've only gone for lunch. Don't know the pricing for the pool area but we will go back again for a change of pace luncheon. We didn't consider the zip lines but friends who have done them said they're a fun experience. I'm afraid of heights when standing on a chair so thinking this would NOT be my cup of tea even if the body was willing. Which it definitely isn't!! <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/handshake.gif" alt="" /> <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/handshake.gif" alt="" />

We considered going when we were on the island at the beginning of the month. We have heard raves about it. The zip line extreme is not for the faint of heart or those out of shape. Here is a detailed video I saw on You Tube that show just how grueling this zip line is. https://youtu.be/UkOX-FKgQzA <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/Yikes.gif" alt="" /> <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/Yikes.gif" alt="" />

Wow. Thanks for posting the video. That gives a really good idea of what you are getting into when you zip line there!

They make amazingly great cocktails will all fresh juices, etc. It's a work of art watching them make a mojito.

That's a lot more rigorous than I thought it would be.

Mercy!! I am afraid of heights anyway, and I already knew I'd have no interest in doing this, but man, that was SCARY, to me!!

The zip lines are short it's the swinging bridges that would get me. Reminds me of Dunn River falls in Jamaica, looks good on paper but not on execution.
