    My husband and I brought our two kids here last Monday. Our kids are 7 and 8. We got the general admission for all four of us. I was quite impressed with all the courses they had. Because of fear of heights our kids didn't do the rope courses long. However they loved the underground tunnels and playground and the rock climbing walls. They also liked the laser rooms. It would've been nice for the kids zip line to be accessible not only by rope courses. I wish the staff would've been more explanatory with how to use the rope courses; our kids had never done it and they were a tad confused at what to do. We did eat food there and their pizza was surprisingly good. The chicken nachos were massively large and tasty as well. All in all our kids still had fun even though we didn't do much of the rope courses. Definitely would be a cool date night for adults.

    We took our three kids plus two of their friends to Fritz's in The Colony for an afternoon of fun. We expected to spend about $150 for the kids, which was already a significant expense. After paying, we were then informed that every adult entering the building had to pay an additional $30--even if we weren't participating in any activities. My husband and I simply wanted to sit, supervise our children, and get some work done while they played. Instead, we were expected to pay another $60 just to walk through the door. Parents should not have to pay simply to supervise their children. If you require adults to remain inside for safety reasons, don't charge them to chaperone. If staffing is the concern, hire enough employees to monitor the attractions instead of making parents pay to do it for you. This policy feels like nothing more than an unnecessary money grab. We won't be returning, and I hope management reconsiders charging non-participating parents just to accompany their children.

    We got the annual pass and have gone 4 times this week- but something has to change with the check in process. The line was wrapped yday as soon as you walk in and we had to wait almost an hour. There should be a member line for those with passes and waivers on file to get checked in and given a wristband to bypass the regular line where people are still filling out waivers and deciding which pass to purchase. Additionally, more signs posted saying to have your waiver filled out or you will be delayed and moved to the side or put back in line. There was a customer in front of me who waited almost an hour. Only to get to the register and allowed to fill the waiver out for himself and his child at the register. This person should have been asked to step aside so the next waiver having customer could be assisted instead of holding up a register in such a busy time. There is a way to keep the line moving and that is NOT being done. They have about a total of 5 registers and only 3 were in use yday- if it's lack of employees, the managers or those sitting in the administrative office should support their employees and business and jump in to get everyone handled timely. One employee announced to the line to start completing waivers in the hour we were in line but that needs to be done more than once and again, have that customer move to the side or get back in line. The cafe ran out of chicken tenders and sliced pizza, by 3:30 - there was only one young man working the cafe register with a huge line, doing his best. Thankfully the sitting / eating area is kept cleaning, which is great! There is plenty of upstairs seating. But the check in process has been horrible. For this new business in the profitable Grandscape area, something has to change - and hopefully it starts with a members express check in line. My kids had a great time, and the annual pass has been a great value but what a nightmare each time to get to that point.

    I came here with a group of my friends, we are all in our early to mid 20s. We came back with a few new bruises but so many laughs were had and fears were conquered here. The variety of events was absurd. They have climbing areas, a laser maze, run up walls like American ninja warrior, a full sized airplane you can walk in, they have the stereotypical tree top/ropes course but also 2 advanced ones that were extremely rewarding and full of adrenaline (they have more stuff like slides and climb up tubes as well). I personally have always been afraid of the ropes course but due to some friend encouragement and very friendly staffs guidance I was able to climb everything I wanted to! I think this would be a dream to come to as a kid, and it was still super fun to do as a big kid. I do not live in Dallas but whenever I visit I will be back here. I will say the tunnel and a few things proved difficult for full sized adults but we still had a fantastic time and managed to squeeze into everything. Overall a super fun experience and personally my best experience at an adventure park.

    If you're a kid, or just young at heart, looking for a unique experience then this is your kind of place. Perhaps you're claustrophobic or have a fear of heights and want to work on conquering that fear. You can do that too. It's filled with so many activities literally from floor to ceiling that the parkour crowd would definitely approve. There are underground tunnels, climbing walls, rope courses, slides, run up ramps, zip lining and more, all of which involve some physical exertion and maybe a little bit of bravery. Plus the space is big enough so that it doesn't feel too crowded even when they're busy. So why is all this fun only deserving of 3 stars? As others have pointed out, the pricing is very steep. For those who have kids 9 years old or younger, you'll have to pay at least $25 for a ticket to accompany them, regardless of whether you want to participate in any of the activities or not. Add food and/or drinks to the price of admission and a few hours here with the family might just exceed your grocery budget for the week. Had we not been guests of a birthday party, I would have taken one look at the prices and immediately said, "Too rich for my blood!" and moved on. One final note, parking at the facility is very limited. I would recommend going straight to the Nebraska Furniture Mart lot to park instead of trying to find a spot next to the building.

    Wow so much fun and a little scary but everything is very secure and the staff is great at being diligent about safety. You can really spend all day here and not even notice the time because of how much fun it is. This place is great with friends, for birthdays, and for families! Theres lots to do not just ropes course but rock climbing, little play area, cafe/resturant, run wall and more. I liked that the facility was new, clean, sturdy, safe, and there were lots of workers to provide clear instructions. It is a bit pricy to do all the activities but I think it's worth to try once for sure!

    Took my kids here for their grand opening. It was on a Wednesday so it wasn't packed even though it was the grand opening. Check in could be worked on so it's more seamless when it does get busy. We filled out the waivers online but they didn't get it in the system so seemed a little pointless since we had to fill it out again even with the confirmation email. Took us about 15 minutes to get wristbands with all the confusion. All day pass costed $19 for each adult and all my kids were free since they were under 4. This is the best option if you're coming with toddlers since they won't be able to do any of the harness activity. Inside is beautiful, well designed and had many different activities. There were a lot of parents allowing their toddlers to go alone and I feel like even though there's no age limit, they should be supervised because it's still hazardous or difficult without a parent's help. My son is a wild child and he still needed assistance getting boosted up. Also, even though it gets hot inside, definitely recommend long pants because the ropes and metal structures. Overall, we had a really good time. It was a workout with 3 toddlers but 3 hours quickly passed. I can see spending the whole day here if you're an adrenaline junkie and doing all the activities. My only critique is that I can see the obstacle courses being difficult to go through when it is packed. Everything is low clearance or super tight. It wasn't even packed and it got chaotic since multiple people were in one area but crossing in both directions. Also, customer service all around could be improved. Besides one guy wearing a yellow bandana (I didn't catch his name) but he was the sweetest with us and the kids. Great way to spend our day and super affordable. Our kids instantly knocked out once we got in the car so it was a win.

    WARNING! They no longer are offering the free parent cafe pass for parents of older kids who don't need hands on supervision.

    WARNING! They no longer are offering the free parent cafe pass for parents of older kids who don't need hands on supervision. Such a turn off and not properly communicated that this change would be coming when they offered their 365 pass promotion for Black Friday. We requested a refund of the passes purchased but not yet activated so we will wait and see if they do the right thing. Will update review with what happens. Bait and switch to parents who have spent $$$$ here in the past and don't appreciate the lack of transparency.

    This place is honestly so cool. If they had something like this when I was a kid, I would've thought it was the coolest place ever. They essentially have an entire underground tunnel system which is fun for kids to explore albeit low key claustrophobic. Like my littles could stand in most of the tunnels without crouching, but as an adult you definitely have to crouch and contort to fit through the tunnels. Given that there are plenty of dead ends and dark areas, I do think younger kids can easily get lost and need an adult to be with them to help navigate the whole time. So if you're one of those parents that would rather sit on the sidelines and let your younger kids play independently...I prob wouldn't recommend it. At first, I was actually really overwhelmed and nervous my kiddos would get lost but after figuring out the lay of the land and understanding where the entrances and exits were, I started to relax and found myself really appreciating how cool this place is for kiddos. There is SO MUCH to do. They have ropes course, a ton of slides, zip lines, climbing walls and an entire underground tunnel system, (which I actually hated bc it's small and dark and claustrophobic) that the kids loooooved and a ropes playground climbing thing. Also a laser obstacle thing like mission impossible style. 10/10 would recommend for kids. As long as you go into it with the right expectations and supervision, it would be impossible not to have a good time here. I think it's actually way more fun than that Boulder place in Grand Prairie and it's cheaper and closer to us! We will definitely be back!

Staff are not on the course. Do not expect them to come help you. Be self sufficient. Set reasonable expectations for yourself. And don't worry about what other people think. Hydrate. This is physical exercise. And have fun! This is fun! Be free with yourself and your companions. Laugh! Connect with nature. Enjoy challenging yourself. Try something new. Why 4 stars instead of 5? Staff are inconsistent and so is the upkeep. For example on today's visit one of the ropes was broken but I was allowed to use the obstacle anyway. That seemed very unsafe to me. The locks are malfunctioning etc. But overall we enjoy coming out and will continue to do so.

The weather outside is a gorgeous, sunny, breezy 65 degrees. You don't mind spending $13 per person to balance on tightropes 5 stories up in the air. Now is the perfect time to conquer Howler's Peak. Our group of 3 went out around 2pm on a fall weekday when most kids are in school, so we had no wait at all. The staff quickly helped us get harnessed up, then we were attached to the safety track snaking throughout the course and set free to roam at will. From the ground, it doesn't seem too tough. You can see that many of the paths look like sturdy wooden-looking ladders on their sides, with plenty of stable foot landings and hand-holds for your crossing. However, once you climb up the stairs to each level, you realize that many paths you must cross are only rope, or with large breaks between tiny foot holds, and few or no handholds. The wind feels stronger up there, balancing takes more effort, and everything seems to sway a bit. Even though you know that there is no way the safety harness can let you fall, it is quite a feat to overcome your brain's message to your body, "Hey, dummy, you're about to plummet to your death!" After going around the 2nd and 3rd stories, including 2 thrilling zip line paths, my 8 year old had had enough. He was ready to get his feet back down on the ground, but I knew it was my duty to continue on. I had to show him (and myself) that even though I was nervous, I was not going to quit until I reached the top. From 30 feet to 40 feet to 50 feet I climbed, as a crisscrossed my way around the course. My goal was the top southwest corner of the structure, where I'd jump down to the ground. I've never been interested in bungee jumping elsewhere, as I question the safety & maintenance of the equipment & training of the staff at most of those tourist trap, beach town places. However, the staff & equipment at this attraction made me feel that risk was minimal. Once I made it to the prep station, my harness was transferred to the pulley system and throrough safety check was done. At that point, I just had to make my legs walk off the end of the platform. Wheeeeeeeeee! I'm probably not going to start base jumping any time soon, but man, that was fun. I'll definitely be coming back to do this again the next time I'm visiting Great Wolf. By the way, even if you aren't a guest of the hotel, you can experience Howler's Peak for $25. Closed-toe shoes are required, and I recommend that long hair be secured and sunglasses worn if it's daytime. For little kids under 48 inches, there is a smaller version of the course on the ground, with a smaller fee and no harness required.

    We did a women's retreat here and it was lovely. We worked with Sheldon and he did a outstanding…read morejob! My husband was also a camp sponsor with our old church and he had a blast with two of our kids! Love that it's small and quiet yet they really outdo themselves to create retreats and camps for all!

    Our Youth Fellowship went to the ranch for a Youth Retreat this past weekend (July 8-10) and had a…read moregreat time! The staff was the best I have ever seen and although they were young they were the most dedicated and dependable people. They went above and beyond and were willing to help in anyway possible. They checked up on us all the time and let us do our Retreat our way. The accommodations were perfect for our group of 60 but we did have to get hotel accommodations for our Married couples that were not able to stay at the campsite with their kids. The facilities were clean and for a small retreat site had lots to offer. They had Archery, BB Guns, Canoeing, Rock Climbing and Zipline. They have a really awesome lake that you can swim in as well. The Worship Center was really awesome and had rooms for different sessions on the second floor. They had a brand new A/V system and everything was set up for us when we got there. The staff was again the best I have ever seen because they set up a campfire, joined in the singing then took us on a hay ride. We also had a impromptu dance night at the outdoor dance floor and they taught our young kids some line dancing and the dance from Footloose. Our group definitely will be using the retreat site again because of the location, staff and accommodations.

    I have traveled with Paul's VIPP once before with my 84-year-old mother, and we are heading out…read moreagain in a few weeks. The Pauls get great prices for their VIPP cruises and tours. More importantly, they take great care of their groups. The groups are comprised of middle-aged and elderly travelers, and the Pauls feature the right mix of easy and adventurous activities for their groups. Mother and I went on a cruise through the Panama Canal a few years ago with the group. They helped me watch out for Mother, and I got to climb the Dunn River Falls, ride a camel, zip-line through a mahogany forest and much more. A lot of tour groups will do this kind of thing, but here's the difference. In Jamaica, we made an unscheduled stop to buy rum. I had no money with me. Tom Paul pulled out his wallet, handed me a $20 and said, "You can pay me back later." This little thing impressed me so much, that he would do that for a complete stranger. We've got a British Isles cruise coming up in a few weeks and Mother and I are really looking forward to it! September 2015 I thought I would update my review now that we've returned from our British Isles Cruise. The large Princess ship was not great. The food was adequate (no more), the lines long, and the service moderate. The Pauls were incredible. We had a few days in London ahead of boarding, and the Pauls, as usual, took great care of the group. Everything was well-planned and well-executed. Once aboard ship, the Pauls took care to make sure everyone in their group was included in all the planned activities. I cannot recommend the Pauls highly enough for their kindness, attention to detail, and ease of travel.

    Great Alaska trip this summer. I'll definitely book another trip with them! Everything was…read moreorganized and streamed.

    such a great experience! was my first time attending an even, and I enjoyed every second of itread more

    My experience with Texas Winos started off on a positive note. In June 2025, I attended one of…read moretheir Wino Fest events in Magnolia and thoroughly enjoyed it. Based on that experience, I booked the Fredericksburg Vintner Winery Tour & Italian Lunch for my birthday in July 2025. Unfortunately, less than an hour before the tour was scheduled to begin, it was canceled. We were notified by email that the scheduled driver had experienced a medical emergency and the backup driver was already assisting with another event. The company apologized and offered to double our winery tour credits, provide free tickets to any 2025 Wino Fest, and allow us to attend a Boat Bash on Lake Travis that same day. While I appreciated the gesture, the Boat Bash offer was impossible to accept. We received the email around 10:00 a.m., and the event began at 11:30 a.m. We were already in Fredericksburg, so there was no realistic way to drive to Lake Travis in time. Although my birthday plans were ruined, I understood that emergencies happen and accepted the four winery tour credits and two Wino Fest tickets for future use. A year later, for my birthday in July 2026, I decided to use my credits to book the same Fredericksburg winery tour. We arrived at the designated meeting location early and waited for the tour to begin. The scheduled start time came and went, but no driver or tour vehicle ever arrived. Even more frustrating, there was no communication whatsoever to let us know there was a delay, cancellation, or any other issue. I immediately called, texted, and emailed the company but did not receive a response for more than an hour. Richard eventually replied by email, stating that the driver had picked up the vehicle on time and that their digital roster showed the other attendees had joined the tour. This only added to my confusion because I had arrived early at the exact meeting location provided in their confirmation link. I even replied with a screenshot from their own link showing where I had been instructed to meet, but I never received another response that day. The following day, I again requested an explanation for what had happened and asked for a refund. I received no response to either request. After two consecutive years of having my birthday plans ruined by this company, I can no longer recommend them. My communications have been with Richard, and based on my experience, I feel I was treated unfairly and ignored when I tried to resolve the situation. I'm sharing my experience so others can make an informed decision before booking and hopefully avoid the disappointment that I experienced.
