  • Wow snowmobiling was awesome!

    A fantastic well organized Snowmobile experience for beginners (you could choose advanced as well). Cougar Mountain base was awesome and the trip through the snow covered forest was a beautiful experience. Our Guide Rita was fantastic and gave us lots of information along the way when we stopped to take in the breathtaking views. Cant wait to go back and do this again

  • A Whistler Experience You Won’t Forget

    We’re in our 60s and absolutely loved the Zipline experience. The Adventure Group staff were brilliant and attention to safety and comfort was of the highest standard. If you want something different to do whilst in Whistler, then try Ziplining their 4 runs, you won’t be disappointed. The long Zipline runs at Cougar Mountain must be one of the best in the world, the scenery is something else. 10/10, thanks.

  • Time Well Spent!

    The Adventure Group exceeded our expectations. We were so happy with the RZR tour, we went back the next day to do Superfly Ziplines - again the whole process was first class all the way. Our instructor for both days was nothing short of amazing. Next trip to Whistler be sure to spend a couple of days at this place!
