‘Party Like a Rock Star!‘ I scream out as I walk off the platform, sat comfortably in my secure harness and let my fears and inhibitions turn into excitement and pure, unadulterated FUN on The NEW Rattlesnake Zipline Roller Coaster at Florida Ecosafaris at Forever Florida!
As I endured the drops and turns of this truly amazing zipline roller coaster, I laughed and squealed with delight! This this is F U N!! Not scary… FUN! It amazed me that there were no engines or mechanism to keep me going. Just the brilliant design and peaceful thrill of being the only one on a roller coaster, hanging freely (harnessed, of course) and anticipating the anxiety but enjoying the complete adventure! The Rattlesnake opened on April 6, 2012 and I can not wait to go back and ride it again!
You can also not be quite so adventurous and go on the wonderful Zipline Safari where you can zipline from platform to platform enjoying both the fun of ziplining and the amazing views of the property from each platform!
Check out our fun filled day in the slideshow below:
The Coach Safari is perfect for the entire family and I am looking forward to taking my kids back!
Feel like a peaceful bike ride over the tall Cypress trees that decorate the land? Then you can embark on the first ever Canopy Cycle Adventure in the USA! I’ll be honest, I went back and forth between this one hour adventure that would take me 25 feet up in the air, show me nature in its truest form and give me a good, relaxing tour versus the Zipline tour! So I am really looking forward to returning and trying this amazing adventure out!
The other adventure that I am dying to give a go at Florida Ecosafaries is the Horseback Safari! I can not imagine the beauty and serene landscaping that would only be interrupted by the clipity clop of my horses feet. You can even turn it into a several day event with your family and really ‘rough it’ in the natural habitat that is celebrated at Florever Florida!
But as I landed my feet on the platform at the end of The Rattlesnake, conquered my complete fear of anticipating in falling on the Panther Pounce and raced Jen from TheSuburbanMom.com down the Peregrine Plunge, I was glad that I got the amazing Zipline Adventure crossed off my ‘MUST DO’ list!
My family and I are planning a trip back to Florida later this year and revisiting Florida Ecosafaris at Forever Florida is defiantly a must! There is so much more to Florida and what it can offer as a family vacation and unique adventures that you would imagine! Take some time to see how you can spend an entire day doing something that you can not do anywhere else!
Oh, and by the way, don’t worry about getting from your Global Resort Home to Florida Ecosafaris. Just call up a Pegasus Bus and enjoy a comfortable, relaxing ride with courteous drivers and clean, quiet buses! It is the only way to travel to all of the wonderful Florida amenities!

It was a complete blast!!! ;D
I LOVED this place. I am so afraid of heights, but I put that aside while I was there and had a blast!
I love going to Florida EcoSafaris! It’s always a blast.
My daughter would love to do this! It sounds like so much fun.
I’m so glad I was able to do both the zipline roller coaster and the canopy cycling. I’m already making plans to go back in November!
Great photos! Sounds like quite a thrill ride!
Oh gosh, it sounds like a blast. I lived in Florida 6 years and never did this. I will in the future though!
Wow! I’m not sure I would enjoy being that high up int he air but the Horseback Safari sounds wonderful! It looks like you all had an amazing time!
