Usually I'm extremely Type-A planner for trips, but I've been busy lately so I let my fiance come up with an itinerary for Montreal and was excited when I saw zip-lining on his list!
We actually drove by the tower on the way to our hotel (which about 3 minutes away on foot) and from a distance it didn't look too scary to me! So when it came time to head over I was pretty excited. A quick form to sign away your life and we were suited up and ready to make the climb.
Once at the top we waited about 30 minutes for it to be our turn, which then started to scare me lol. I questioned whether or not the tower itself was stable, I questioned whether or not I'd somehow get my finger in the zip line etc etc... so yes, I was pretty terrified lol. Once I was about 5 persons away from going I calmed down a bit as it really didn't seem too bad!
Of course the actual zip line across takes less than 1 minute, but it was worth it for sure. Great experience, felt very safe, and at $20CAD pp it was quite affordable.
