How to pick a good zipline tour

Check the number of lines and the longest run; tours range from a few short lines to a full canopy course.
Operators set weight limits and minimum ages, so check them before booking.
Wear closed shoes and leave loose items behind; most courses offer lockers.
Rain doesn't always stop ziplining, but lightning and strong wind do. Ask about the cancellation rule.
