I'm afraid of heights. Can I do this tour?
Perfect – you have a lot to gain from doing this tour! Your kiwi tour guides pride themselves on their ability to help people achieve beyond what they thought possible, your two guides are there to support you the whole way through the journey. The tour slowly builds up in height and at all times there is the option to stop, but in most cases, people’s fears subside within the first hour as the safety systems, their guides’ professionalism and the encouragement of the rest of the group put them at ease.
