Not Your Regular Ape Adventure At Go Ape


We have to admit this - sometimes, if not usually, it is not easy to organize an outing where everyone will enjoy the activities involved and have fun. Different expectations, different age group and different personalities makes it all the more difficult at times. Hence, one of the best activity that will get everyone going and involved with would almost be an outdoor one. Go Ape is considered to be a great place for the young and the old - it would be quite impossible to hear anyone complaining after all the fun that they are expected to have at Go Ape. So, gather your friends, gather your family members and pile them up onto a charter bus that will take all of you to the jungle where the fun begins!
Tree top adventures would be one of the closest and best description of what Go Ape is all about - try imagining Tarzan swinging from one tree to another. Go Ape is located at 6129 Needwood Lake Drive, Rockville, MD 20855, and it is not too difficult to find, especially if you have a very experienced chartered Maryland rental bus driver to take you there. When you arrive at Go Ape, you will be pleasantly surprised to find that they have great obstacle courses for almost every age group to try and experience. If you are bringing children, they have to be at least 4 feet 7 inches tall and 10 years of age in order to qualify for any of the obstacle challenges available. Not to worry though - for the younger ones, the obstacle courses are easier but adult supervision is a must for those 18 years old and below.
Since this is going to be an outdoor activity, do bear in mind that you will need to be properly dressed - put on clothes that are comfortable, meant for outdoors and that you would not mind getting them a little dirty. Sandals, high heels, slippers, open toed and slip on shoes are not allowed at all - but sneakers and running shoes are definitely ok. If you find that your hands are sensitive, you may want to consider wearing gloves and if you have long hair, you will have to tie your hair. Bringing an extra change of clothes is highly recommended - so that you won’t be sitting in the chartered bus in your sweaty, smelly clothes and make the others feel uncomfortable with the “not-so-nice” odor.
If you happen to be afraid of heights, you can be assured that safety is a priority at Go Ape and they will never take your safety for granted. You can always stay on the ground and cheer your mates on as they take on the adventure course. Without a doubt, this outdoor trip will be one that everyone will have much to say on the way home in the chartered bus - and you can give yourself a pat on the back for having come up with such a brilliant idea for the trip - as well as the arrangement to charter a bus too!
