    Did the treetop adventure with a 6 year old in tow and it was great. The staff were super friendly (Alex was especially great as he made us feel a lot more comfortable!), they explained everything clearly and greeted us with a smile whenever we had a question! Definitely recommend coming here😊

    What a lovely day for whole the family of all ages to enjoy. It has different heights for different age groups from toddler to adults. You can bring alone a pack lunch as there is plenty of seating, or there's a cafe right next to it . Plenty of parking.

    Omg! This was the best experience ever! My daughter’s 12 and 9 were so scared at first you could see the fear in their face but with some encouragement they went up by themselves and wow! You could see their confidence building while completing the course! They loved it! They said it was the best activity they have than in 2022 so far! We will definitely come back! We got the plus tickets Thank You

    Such a fun place to go for outdoor adventure. We did the tree challenge and it was so much fun. Do note you can't carry things in your pocket. So if you want your phone, get a phone pouch. It took us about 3 hours to complete 3 levels! Highly recommend.

    Great set up in the middle of London. The staff were amazing as my 7-year-old daughter was petrified of the zip-wire and they were so patient with her. She managed to do the zip-wire, not once but three times. Thank you for your help.

    I didn't participate in this as I was looking after our baby daughter but our son (and my husband) had the best time on this course. The people who worked at go ape, made sure my son felt safe (his first time going up this high). As I was walking around trying to spot them you have staff scattered all over the ground too underneath the course. Definitely recommend this place, as it makes our local ones look very tiny 🤏.

    Absolutely great place, worth the time and money. I will definitely return! Sometimes maybe a bit more disciplining and attention from the Instructors towards the guests would be better. Pizza underneath is tempting but not as great as one would expect. Pizza 6/10 The Staff attentive and patient when asked for help. The bathrooms are a disgrace! A true true disgrace!

    Blooming brilliant!! It took much longer than expected as we came as a group of 8. We didn't get the chance to go around the highest section. This was probably a good job too as most of the group started flagging after the cargo net section and really tested their limit towards the end. Only downside is they can't get you down from any point. They can 'help' you though by talking you through it.

    We went here.for my daughters birthday last May 8 and my daughter loved it. She will definitely would love to do it again. It was drizzling that day but they were still allpwed to proceed. They had a safety breifing at the start. It was worth the money and we woild try it next time with her.

    This is honestly a kids dream ! So much to do and see from up there ! Also an amazing little park to keep the whole family entertained. The staff are amazing at showing everyone what to do and making everyone feel safe . Can’t wait to visit again

    Only for Small Groups!! A nice little area with decent course and activities to do for smaller groups. Not recommended for larger groups. Went with a large group of 100+ and we were split up into tiny groups (4 main groups split into addition 4 tiny groups) We were only given 2hrs to do the course which included the 10-15min briefing and equipment preparation. As you can imagine with a larg group all this would have taken up a lot of time, leaving about an hour or so of actually running the course. The rest of the time was spent doing "team building activities" which was not so great. Would recommend going if you're a group of 5-10 but nothing more.

    It was amazing and the best day EVER as described by my daughter and her friend. The staff at the entry desk were a little incompetent, but other than that, a great time had been by children.

    Great fun.

  • 5/5 Martina R. 10 months ago on Google • 33 reviews
    Brilliant experience throughout. Go Ape Battersea offers three loops of varying difficulty depending on height and bridge complexity. There is a good variety of bridges to cross, some harder than others, all on top beautiful tall trees that overlook Battersea park. Definitely a must do experience if you’re not scared of heights!

  • 5/5 Man Ping C. 7 months ago on Google • 30 reviews
    An inclusive experience for everyone who wants to get off the ground. This was my first time trying, the staff and instructors are friendly and the vibe is relaxing and exciting. I am still a fan of the ground, but I had a wonderful and challenging time with Go Ape. Recommend it to someone who loves to challenge themselves! Oh, and there are pizzas, coffee and ice creams.

    I love your cappuccino and they look after the machine 😋

  • 5/5 S K. 2 months ago on Google • 19 reviews New
    Can’t say enough good things about the staff here! Everyone was just so lovely and friendly and helpful. My husband and I accidentally signed up for the Treetop Adventure course with the kiddos instead of Challenge and we so impressed by how patient and encouraging the staff were with all the little kids on a busy Saturday. We’d probably go for a more challenging course next time but still had fun thanks to the team 😊

    Very fun place for a birthday or celebration with children. I think my brother enjoyed it as well.

  • 5/5 Ken M. 2 months ago on Google • 19 reviews New
    Staff were very friendly and communicated thoroughly with the group, one of the zip lines were out of order so we were given the choice to do the course again which was fantastic.

  • 5/5 Kyle L. 7 months ago on Google • 18 reviews
    Very fun course with different difficulty levels. All the safety equipment was well maintained and easy to use. Fixtures and obstacles were secure and challenging. All the employees were friendly, helpful and patient. Would go back again.

    Went here for 13 year olds birthday everyone from a 4 year old to the adults had a great time ☺️

  • 5/5 Queen L. 2 months ago on Google • 14 reviews New
    Great! Children loved it!

  • 5/5 Setsuko A. 2 months ago on Google • 4 reviews New
    My 8-year-old daughter really enjoyed walking among the trees, especially a zipline!

  • 5/5 Jenny W. 8 months ago on Google
    Great day out with the kids. Staff are friendly and well organised. Must book in advance.

  • 5/5 Jane B. 2 years ago on Google
    We took 3 of our grandchildren to Go Ape and they all loved it! Only downside is if you are behind someone who gets really scared and a member of staff has to come along and rescue them. This happened to 2 of my grandchildren and this added an extra hour on to their time at Go Ape. Maybe about escape route would be a good idea!!

  • 5/5 John A. 2 years ago on Google
    Add this to your must things to do. Great fun with a zip wire reward at the end.

  • 5/5 F R. 2 years ago on Google
    Great outdoor fun, for young and old

  • 5/5 J D. 2 years ago on Google
    I was a bit weary of going to this tree top adventure in central London, because I have had such a great experience at another Go ape outside of London, a big one we went as a big group of friends, this time I booked it as a present for my 8 year old she was here when she was younger and loved it. We went and I have to admit although it has a small footprint they have used the space well and it is on a multilevel, I went on the shorter course as my 8 year old was too young to go on the bigger one but even so it was great, much better than I set myself up for and enjoyed it, we are going to come back again and do the higher treetop challenge next time

  • 5/5 Nawarucha J. 2 years ago on Google
    I went to Go Ape today and I was so scared but finally I did it because everyone encouraged me. It was so fun and I had lots of memories there <3

  • 3/5 oladejo O. 2 years ago on Google
    Lovely place. The heights are so interesting with good safety latches though. Also the mini golf.

  • 5/5 anthony w. 2 years ago on Google
    Awesome day out. Short briefing but tell you all you need to know and then you are free to adventure in a pretty controlled environment! Great for work team building

  • 5/5 Amy M. 2 years ago on Google
    Great for all ages. Courses of different difficulties. Restaurant and playground below are both excellent

  • 5/5 Fakrul I. 1 year ago on Google
    Went for the first time recently with 5 others... Was a good experience. Couldn't get the treetop challenge (the 3 hour-long one which is highest and most challenging) nor any of the others due to booking at short notice so had to settle for the easiest one. Probably a good thing since none of us are particularly good with heights or climbers of any kind. Staff were very good - polite, helpful, friendly and knew what they were doing. Very professional. Also the people on the phone for enquiries prior to going, likewise very pleasant and professional. Parking available. The course itself was designed for youngsters (6-12) so it felt a bit awkward navigating my way through as an adult especially since the ropes are positioned to make it easy for children and not necessarily for taller people. Was good to challenge my aversion for heights and all of us had a good time - I think (!). May return and do the treetop challenge next time now that we know what to expect. ------------- Even if not doing the Go Ape activities, there are still things to do for kids and adults in the immediate vicinity. All in all was a good experience... Not sure if it was enjoyable but coming out of it knowing I'd done it was!

  • 4/5 Abi Palmer N. 2 years ago on Google
    Kind staff. 2 x 10 Yr olds and 2 x 14 Yr olds had a great time. They had pizza's next door straight after Go Ape. We walked through Battersea Park to get to the tube. It's beautiful.

  • 4/5 Tania M. 2 years ago on Google
    It was fun, nice people too a big expensive.

  • 4/5 Chloe F. 2 years ago on Google
    We did the one for young kids and it was great fun. It's a little expensive at nearly £90 for 4 but a good experience with a fearless kid. Not all the staff are the friendliest.

  • 5/5 Hope_Upstairs 2 years ago on Google
    Had a lot of fun going through all the courses and climbing the trees! 10/10, will definitely go again.

  • 5/5 Irmak E. 1 year ago on Google
    Great fun and adventure that parents can enjoy with their kids right in Battersea Park. I recommend children under 7 years old to be accompanied by an older person because even the easiest lines might get a bit tricky. It’s totally safe but little ones might need some support up there. The highlight is the zip line!

  • 3/5 Sophie S. 1 year ago on Google
    TL DR; To sum up, I advise you think long and hard about if you or your child will actually enjoy this before booking because it's the type of thing that sounds fun but actually felt like more like an endurance test. Really would have appreciated it if they told us how hard the third course was as that was what we were put on first and it took an hour to complete. By the time we were done we were exhausted and I didn't do any of the other courses because I was just too tired! I remember about half way through wishing I could stop because physically and mentally it's knackering, but you just have to keep going until the end and push through the pain. Its also way more scary than I thought it would be and we saw a few kids freezing mid way through and one kid didn't want to go on anymore so then we had to wait for a while. For me, I wish I didn't bother coming! And it left me thinking, who actually enjoys these things? Because I don't think any of our party enjoyed themselves My muscles were sore the next few days! Also make sure you get the gloves or bring your own, it stops you getting rope burn.

    Superfun experience for the entire family. Different challenges for all ages. Helpful and friendly staff! Great value for money. If you're on family vacation in London, you definitely need to visit here 👌😊
