ハワイ島 ジップライン体験8本 ワールド・ボタニカル・ガーデンの中を滑走 <英語インストラクター>

初ジップライン

Reviewed by: ディー

スタッフは皆さん明るく親切でした。青い空の下、森の上を滑走する感じが気持ちよかったです。ただ、予約した回が、おそらく、マックスの参加人数で、新しいジップラインに行くたびにかなり待たされました。1時間から1時間半、と言われていましたが、2時間近くかかりました。
でも、風景も楽しめたから、良かったかな?かなり年配のアメリカ人のおばあちゃまも初挑戦されていて、家族で楽しめるジップラインでした。

Super Fun!

Reviewed by: Renee

A great zipline course -- especially for young kids and first timers. Staff is organized, nice and safety focused. Terrain is tropical lush, with ziplines in close proximity to one another. We enjoyed it so much, we would have re-booked in next tour if it wasn't closing time!

Grand Circle Island Tour - Volcano, Black Sand Beach, Waipio Valley & Waterfalls

Big Island Circle Tour

Reviewed by: Linda

Our driver and tour host presented us with a very interesting and colorful history of the Big Island. He had a great sense of humor too! He paced the trip on the attendees, when there was an obvious interest in an area. This tour is a good for those wanting to get a broad acquaintance with the Big Island and it's various areas and interests. It was our springboard for other activities!

Hilo 8-Line Zipline & Suspension Bridge Rainforest Adventure with Free Photos

Good first time zipline

Reviewed by: Sam

Went with my wife and sister, it's easy to find and has parking available. The staff is friendly and helpful. The zipline course itself is through beautiful landscapes and a small valley with a river at the bottom. Overall if you have ziplined before in treetops this course won't be as exciting for you. I would still recommend for the views and to those who haven't done ziplining before.

A "Grand" Tour

Reviewed by: Staci S.

This was a great tour for our first full day on the island. Kala , our guide, was a world of information about all things Hawaiian! He was so excited to show us turtles on the black sand beach, lava at the volcano,and beautiful Waipio Valley. He gave us great ideas on where the best burgers and the most delicious malasadas on the island where...and yes we went back to try them ! It was a long day, but as others had commented before me, it flew by!

Take the time to see the island.

Reviewed by: Barbara Helms

Tour Guide was great!!!!!! Great Value!

Would suggest that you have passengers switch seats during the tour. Unfortunately we get the back seats and the viewing is not as good as the seats further towards the front. Also it was harder to talk to the guide from back there. Might be nice if halfway thru the tour everyone switch seats.

Hawaii Zipline Tours - Big Island Waterfall & Rainforest Zip Adventure

Amazing, amazing, amazing!

Reviewed by: Dawn Weston

We had a total of 8 in our group, and did this tour on 5/9/17. The guides were very helpful and did a god job in making you feel comfortable on the lines especially for us first timers. The views were undescribable. Make sure to really just enjoy the ride and not fuss too much with your camera or phone because you will miss all the beautiful scenery. It can take away from the experience. You get to see a lot of banana trees and even try some right off the tree. It was by far one of the best things we did while visiting. A must do activity!

Grand Circle Island Tour - Volcano, Black Sand Beach, Waipio Valley & Waterfalls

Island Tour.

Reviewed by: Maryann

We did the Circle Island Tour, small group tour which was fantastic. I cannot say enough about this tour. It was approx. 11.5 hours but the day flew by. Our driver Kevin was amazing and informed us about everything. It was a maximum 12 people which made it very enjoyable. Our lunch break we stopped at an Orchid shop and our driver had picked us up Bento Boxes, it was delicious. We saw everything from waterfalls, rain forest, black sand beach, lava tubes, lava fields, and volcanoes and so much more. I would highly recommend this trip to anyone. Well worth the money.
Thank you for the great tour.

ハワイ島 ジップライン体験8本 ワールド・ボタニカル・ガーデンの中を滑走 <英語インストラクター>

大人も楽しい!

Reviewed by: ともこ

夫婦二人で参加しました。
ちょうど、日本人の通訳さんが働き始める前の体験中でした。これからこちらで働くそうなので、英語が分からない人でも通訳さんをお願いすれば大丈夫になると思います。
参加者は子供から大人までいろいろ。
アメリカ本土から親子3世代(おじいちゃん、おばあちゃんから孫まで)で、そろって参加していた方もいたので、年齢問わず楽しめると思います。
最初のジップが、初めてで慣れないうえに高さがあってちょっと怖かったですが、後は楽しめました。
私は高いところがそんなに得意ではないですが、大丈夫でした。
時期的に雨が降って肌寒い日が続いていて、海のレジャーは全然ダメだったのですが、そんなときの山のレジャーとしてやってみたら、とても楽しかったです。

Best Zipline and Crew

Reviewed by: Cameron

First time zip-lining with my 10 year old daughter. Cant imagine a better zip line tour not only in Hawaii but in the US. You finish strong with an incredible 3,000+ foot zip line ride that goes over a waterfall and canyon. The crew is great too. Very professional, courteous. My 10 year old daughter thought this was awesome and so did I.

My Son, Daughter and Myself had a great time, our guides were funny, helpful and very personable. What can you say about finishing the day with a 3,350' run that lasts over a minute, WHOW! This is our second Hawaii Zip Line and I would recommend it as a bucket list for everyone.

  • Here we are at the end, we came over the waterfall in the background. The green tree above the waterfall was the starting point

  • My daughter can be wierd in a photo op

  • Getting ready to do the 3,350' run

  • At the end of the last run

  • One of the intermediate runs. They were a blast too!

We are sorry for any difficultty you may have had with your reservation or directions. Kona has some of the clearest waters and abundance of fish in the state, but sometimes "Mother Nature" clouds the waters. We hope that you will join us again in the future.

What a great day on the Big Island. If you travel to Kona make sure to put this tour on your itinerary.
Our guide was Nickels and he was the most knowledgeable young man and very patient and pleasant too. He took us to all of the places you should see on the island and even managed an unscheduled stop to the southern most bakery in the US. Even our teenagers we're attentive and even asked questions. It's a long day(@ 12hours)but I didn't want it to end. We truly enjoyed this tour.
