Before I go on with my review I will say I have zip lined the downtown Las Vegas 1 on Fremont street, 8 different lines in a Fijian rainforest and 1 in the Philippines. So needless to say, when it comes to zip lining, it better be worth it.
I did this one at night and paid $44 the weekend of the grand opening. Yes, it's pretty up high but unlike other zip lines I've done, you are sitting strapped in a TRON like chair and it pulls you across to the other Rio building. The best part of it was when you reached the end and you flung a bit forward as you came to a halt.
As you are waiting to get on, there is a very nice view of the Vegas strip but once you're on the zip line chair/seat you are no longer facing that view.
All employees were nice. You can say they care for your safety as they will wave a metal detector across you right before you step on.
3 stars cause I would rather recommend riding the Fremont zip line than this one.
