Botanical World's Zip Line is the most exciting zipline in Hawaii and possibly the world. With 8 lines gradually building to the last two that are dual side-by-side zips to share with a friend. The Grand Finale is over a huge 330 foot (100 meter) gorge with a 250 foot (76 meters) waterfall. Our Zip Isle zip Line Adventure is the longest operating zip line on the Big Island operating since 2009 with an unblemished safety record. With each of the 8 zip lines the excitement builds as the lines get longer as you continue to be thrilled. The amazing views from the suspension bridge will give a story to tell of true Hawaii as you pass the HUGE mango tree hundreds of years old that may have seen Kamehameha walking along the rapids of the stream gorge below. Your guides share the many secrets of the plants, let you taste fruits and spices and relay the history of this unique setting in the rain forest.

What To Expect

At Zip Isle Zipline Adventures at Botanical World, we have eight ziplines that allow you to see the rainforest from a new perspective. As you fly through the jungle, the ziplines get longer and you go faster. After crossing a daring suspension bridge, you finish with the final two side-by-side ziplines, where you can race your friends to see who flies the fastest, including a half-mile race while zipping past the famous 250 foot tall Kamaee Falls. Notice: Zippers between 35-70 lbs are required to go with our certified guide.

It's my second time to take zipline, I'm very happy that I met two very professional and dedicated young Kai and Myra guide. Thank you for bringing us such happy memories. It's my husband's first time to participate. He is very old, and he was safely led by them through a long and pleasant journey. He said “thank you”

An unforgettable family adventure! Our zipline tour at the botanical garden was absolutely incredible from start to finish! Our guides John, Kai, and Avery were the perfect mix of funny, kind, and professional. They kept us laughing the entire time while making sure we felt completely safe and at ease on every platform and line. What meant the most to us was how wonderful they were with our kids. They were so patient and encouraging while joking around with them along the way to make them comfortable. Between the fun and the fascinating facts they shared about the local plants and landscape, we learned so much and felt truly connected to the beauty around us. It’s rare to find guides who can keep things so lighthearted while being so attentive and safety-focused. We left feeling like we’d just spent the day with friends who genuinely love what they do. If you’re visiting, don’t miss this experience and if you’re lucky enough to get John, Kai, and Avery, you’re in for an amazing adventure for the whole family!

My grandma and I had a great time! We were lucky enough to not have anyone else with us. Just AJ and John as our guides. Echo was our driver and she was the best! My grandma is into flora and fauna and John did a great job talking about the landscape. AJ had great info about the island as well. The ziplines were short at first, but got longer as you go. We also were able to get water at some spots which helped as well. There are stairs, and hills at some spots. We stayed in Waikaloa Village and my grandma stayed at The Bay Club near the Hilton. From her place it was about an hour and 25 minute drive, but it was a nice drive. The eastern side of the island is very lush. Would definitely do it again! Thank you!

This was an amazing experience! In addition to be zip line, we received a wonderful tour of the landscape, details on plants and their origins, and a history lesson of the island. The zip lines were fun, with beautiful views. The guides were fantastic, knowledgeable, and went out of their way to make it a personalized experience. Highly recommended!
Amazing fun experience

Amazing experience! Our guides Kanani and Avery were so fun and knowledgeable - they really enriched the tour with jokes, music, and fun facts about the local flora and fauna. The forest is beautiful and that last longer zip line over the waterfall is GORGEOUS! I can’t recommend this more highly!
