After college, she chose to trade in her winter boots for slippahs and moved to the beautiful island of Oahu, where she has been living for more than five years. She lives on the west side but is constantly taking mini-road trips across the island and visits the neighboring islands whenever she can getaway. She loves hiking, snorkeling, locally-grown coffee, and finding the best acai bowl on Oahu.
There is little better than watching a waterfall cascade into a pool below — except soaring above a waterfall on an epic zipline tour.
Whether you call Hawaii home or are visiting the islands on vacation, there is one activity that absolutely must be on your Hawaiian Islands bucket list: a zip lining tour. While you will undoubtedly find countless zip lining tours across the main four Hawaiian islands, there’s one adventure on Hawaii Island so special it deserves a shout out.
Found just a few miles from Hilo and nestled on one of the prettiest landscapes you’ve ever seen is Botanical World Adventures, a unique excursion company that will make your trip to Hawaii Island truly unforgettable.
Though Botanical World Adventures offers a variety of one-of-a-kind adventures, it is their epic zipline tour that tops our travel wish list this year. Can you blame us? Views like this are pretty hard to beat.
The epic zipline tour lasts approximately 2 hours and includes eight ziplines — each more incredible than the last — as well as a stunning suspension bridge above lush greenery, ranchlands, jaw-dropping scenery, and even a magical waterfall.
Cascading nearly 100 feet through a breathtaking, tropical rainforest, Kamae’e Falls is the crown jewel of this adventure, and witnessing this ethereal beauty as you zip through the sky is truly an experience you’ll never forget.
If you’d like to stay firmly planted on the ground, Botanical World Adventures has an option for you: a segway adventure where guests can glide across historic bridges, explore gorgeous gardens, maneuver through the dense rainforest and see impressive Kamae’e Falls up close. You can even combine the segway and zipline tours for hours upon hours of island fun!
Botanical World Adventures is also home to the world’s second largest herbaceous maze and acres upon acres of exotic plants from across the world guests can see, smell, touch, and photograph for themselves.
There’s little better than a leisurely stroll along this paved walkway or a hike through the rainforest and alongside the tumbling Hanapueo Stream and its waterfalls — except perhaps a horticulture tour where you can learn about (and taste) tropical food plants like mango, guava, pineapple, breadfruit, papaya, banana, and more.
Whether you visit for a zipline, segway, or hiking tour, Botanical World Adventures certainly doesn't disappoint when it comes to its jaw-dropping scenery and opportunities for adventure. So, what are you waiting for?
Botanical World Adventures is located at 31-240 Old Mamalahoa Hwy., Hakalau, HI 96710, and is open daily from 8 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. For more information or to book your tour, visit their website. You can also give them a like on Facebook.
If ziplining over a waterfall isn’t quite your cup of tea, perhaps a stroll through the nearby Hawaii Tropical Botanical Garden — often referred to as a museum of living plants — would be more up your alley?
