We came as a group for birthday celebrations and were amazed with the experience. Everyone there made the trip so much fun especially a man named Sam. Sam helped with our training, safety briefing and a few times through the courses. He made us laugh the whole time and made us feel so much more comfortable even though some of us were scared. Not only this but he remained professional in making sure we understood instructions and keeping us safe. Would highly recommend this to anyone thinking of booking.

We had an absolutely amazing experience at Go Ape Temple Newsam yesterday! From the moment we arrived, the staff went above and beyond to make sure everything ran smoothly for our large group. Although we originally had to book over two time slots due to our group size, the team were incredibly accommodating and managed to get us all on the course at the same time, which made the day even more enjoyable.
