"Excellent time today at Go Ape, Adventure Plus! The staff are truly amazing! I had three teens and a nine year old - the staff offered so much advice and encouragement to my youngest to get her happily round the course! I so appreciated their expertise, kindness and professionalism! Wonderful team, great activity! Highly recommend!"

We are a group of ladies of a certain age, two of whom were petrified of heights. We were trained well before going up in the trees. All of us conquered our fears and enjoyed the challenge. The zip wires were the highlight and the ladders our knee knocking nightmare but the feeling of accomplishment at the end was amazing. Thank you Goape.

Lovely site with plenty to do. Visited 21.2.23 for treetop challenge plus. My kids age 13 and 10 loved the treetop challenge. 3 trees in to the challenge plus my autistic daughter was frozen scared stiff at the top of a tree. The team were amazing, particularly the lady who went up to rescue her ( think her name was Yvonne but may be mistaken). She was kind, extremely patient and supportive, and coaxed my frightened daughter down. She never made her feel embarrassed, even pointing out how brave she had been and what a great job she had done. So grateful to her, she was amazing, Thank you.

Fantastic Forest Segway at Cannock. Had a fantastic time zipping through the forest trails at Cannock today. Totally professional instructor and made sure everyone was comfortable on the practice trail before heading out into the forest. Shows how hard it is to get up some of the hills as a few people hit the dirt! Would totally recommend this, worth every penny!
