About this tour
Soar through the rainforest canopy on eight ground-to-ground ziplines and a suspension bridge at Botanical World Adventures on the Hamakua Coast. The course builds progressively - starting with a short warm-up line over Hanapueo Gorge before working up to the grand finale: a nearly half-mile dual racing zip reaching speeds up to 50 mph with views of the 250-foot Kamaee Falls and the gorge below.
Between lines, you'll cross a suspension bridge over waterfalls and rapids, and guides capture photos throughout the tour that you can share in real time. The experience takes approximately 2 to 2.5 hours and includes all harness gear, transportation between zipline stations, water, and a seasonal fruit snack on the course.
Guests ages four and up are welcome - children under 70 pounds ride tandem with a certified guide, and anyone under 18 must be accompanied by a parent or guardian. Wear closed-toe shoes and bring sun protection. The course operates rain or shine (cancellations only for extreme weather like lightning or flash flooding). Non-zipping family members can explore the surrounding tropical gardens, the Rainforest Trail, and one of the world's largest hedge mazes while the group is on the course. Arrive 30 minutes before your tour time to check in.

Is the zipline at Botanical World Adventures suitable for children, and are there any age or weight restrictions?
Children as young as 4 years old can participate in the zipline at Botanical World Adventures, though guests under 18 must be accompanied by a parent or guardian who is at least 18 years old. Guests weighing less than 70 lbs will ride tandem with a certified guide rather than solo. The upper age limit listed is 150, making this a broadly accessible activity for families and older adults alike. However, pregnant guests and anyone with current neck or back injuries are not permitted to participate. Guests with disabilities are considered on a case-by-case basis, which requires management approval before booking.
Does the zipline tour at Botanical World Adventures run in rainy weather?
The zipline tour at Botanical World Adventures operates in all weather conditions, including rain, so a passing shower will not cancel your experience. Tours may be suspended only in cases of extreme weather such as thunder and lightning, flash flooding, or severe winds, and those decisions are handled individually. The Hamakua Coast near Hilo is a rainforest environment, so some moisture is common and part of the setting. If the operator cancels your tour due to weather or other unforeseen circumstances, you will receive a full refund. You can contact the team at (808) 963-5427 or reservations@BotanicalWorld.com with any weather-related questions before your tour date.
What is the cancellation policy for the Botanical World Adventures zipline tour?
A full refund is available if you cancel the Botanical World Adventures zipline tour at least 48 hours before your scheduled start time. If you purchased trip protection, a full refund minus the cost of that protection and fees applies with at least 12 hours of notice before the tour start. Because tours run at fixed times with very limited capacity, reservations prevent others from booking that same spot, which is why the cancellation window is enforced strictly. To cancel or ask about a cancellation, contact the operator by phone at (808) 963-5427 or by email at reservations@BotanicalWorld.com. Operator cancellations due to weather or unforeseen circumstances result in a full refund.
What can non-zipping guests do while others complete the zipline course at Botanical World Adventures?
Non-zipping guests at Botanical World Adventures can explore the Rainforest Trail while the rest of their group completes the zipline course. The property also features tropical gardens and a large herbaceous maze, giving non-participants plenty to see and do during the roughly 2 to 2.5 hour experience. The grounds sit on the Hamakua Coast and include seasonal wildlife viewing opportunities, such as whale sightings in winter. This setup makes the tour a reasonable choice for mixed groups where not everyone wants to zip. Guests with disabilities who may not be able to participate in the zipline course should contact management in advance, as accessibility is reviewed case-by-case.
