Pre-Activity Instructions

The briefing starts with the rules and safety tips for the activity. Guests learn what they can and cannot do. At Jump by Flying Fox in Nairobi, safety and guidance are top priorities during all adventure sessions. Each session is led by a team of two instructors: a Lead Instructor and an Assistant Instructor.


The Lead Instructor oversees the entire activity, ensuring that all safety protocols are followed and providing expert guidance to participants. Meanwhile, the Assistant Instructor supports the Lead by helping with equipment checks, offering encouragement, and ensuring that everyone feels comfortable and secure throughout their experience. This dynamic duo works together to create a safe, enjoyable, and memorable adventure for all participants.
