Stayed at Rasa Sayang hotel. Crew at kids club was attentive and caring. Daughter enjoyed pool activities and get to select their own meal at Sigi restaurant.

It was my second time back at The Habitat and I was peer pressured into trying the new zip line course despite my fear of heights. Naturally, I was very nervous before going on the first zip line but once I completed it, it was so much fun I couldn’t wait to get on to the next one! In total there are five zip lines but for the first zip line, you can do this with a friend or someone else which makes it easier for your first attempt in my experience. More importantly, you have designated experienced guides who will follow you throughout the course and I felt like I was in safe hands the entire time as our guides were very professional, knowledgable and they explained everything you need to know and what to do before you take on the first zip line and later help guide you throughout the course. This is definitely a different and fun way to explore the rainforest. As you glide deeper into the forest, you get to enjoy more spectacular views and it keeps getting better. I highly recommend this, even to people who are scared of heights like me because it’s such an incredible experience and 100% worthwhile!
