This Park is included in the category of Botanical garden.
This place is beyond words - it just has to be experienced. The grounds are beautiful and well care for, but the crew is where this place really shines. We did zip lines and Segway tour and they were some of the kindest and most helpful guides ever. We got to sample delicious native fruits and learn about the area from locals that genuinely seemed happy to share. I can not recommend this experience more.
Not cheap but great place. Extremely well kept with very friendly staff. Welcome feeling. Zip line was awesome. Gardens were stunning. Maze was cool. Well worth a visit.
Not Impressed! We got this confused with Hawaii Tropical Botanical Garden in Papaikou. May be more fun for those that want to zip line and do a Segway tour.
Zip-line tour was amazing
Segway was fun.
Fun course, guides friendly and safety minded. Beautiful views!
We had a great time traversing the gulch and the waterfalls. The staff was very knowledgeable and helpful. We had a great time.
We came here back in June we enjoyed our time here we had our teenager and our two year old daughter we walk the gardens went and saw the waterfall it was very nice if we are ever on the big island again we probably would stop by the only downfall is I feel it's a little pricey but most things on the big island are
Great Zip-Line fun. The guys were fun and knowledgeable about the local terrain and flora. Fun tandom races with friends and family members! Beautiful waterfall at the end. I urge any who are thinking about this activity, to just "go for it, do it"!!
Beautiful memorable experience if you come to Big Island. The 2 ladies at the front desk are unbelievably helpful & knowlagable . Thanks
Did the zipline tour with them and it was just beautiful. Get there early so you can hangout in the farms leading upto the waterfall and the garden
Diverse plants but lots of plant signs were damaged or impossible to find. Many spider webs across the wall way tells me people didn't walk there for a while.
The segway tour was a blast. A little more botany would have been nice, but there were signs everywhere and enough time to stop and read them.
Friendly check-in. Competent And generous segway tour.
Awesome place
An overall fun experience. The place is a bit hard to find from Maps. I did the segway tour with my sister, and it was a ton of fun. They teach you very well how to operate the segways, and our guide was informative, friendly, and just really nice. Only downside is that they don't let you take your own pictures, which would be okay if the tour guide didn't use a Galaxy S2 to take pictures (at the time the S5 was the newest). At least use a decent point and shoot... Would still recommend this place, however, especially the segway!
A must see
Love this beautiful place! So many exotic fruit trees & plants! The tour was amazing!
We had 4 guides and they made sure safety was number 1 and buckled us in our harnesses and they were responsible to check and clip us to the cables and unhook us from the cables.
Adventure with beautiful island scenery all around. Amazing staff that help make the experience both safe and fun!
Breath taking
During the dates of Oct 23rd to the 28th, was our very first visit to Hawaii, and like other tourist, we searched through the magazines for things to do while staying on the Island!! Well this place was plastered all of the magazines so we added them to our list. Mind you we stayed in Waikoloa Village, which was an hour 1/2 drive to the Botanical World Adventures. Well to our surprise this place was a joke!!! The land was not well kept, we walked through the trail which was not very well organized and then we found ourselves guessing which way to go next trying to follow the map!! Approaching the waterfalls was a sign that said "Enter at your own risk!!!" What in the world, we didn't even walk down there to see what your own risk meant!! I would not waste my time, money or gas ever visiting this place again. We regrouped the next two days and found the Hawaii Tropical Botanical Gardens and they was a breathe of fresh air and beauty!!!
Highly recommend the zip line and Segway tours... So much fun!
Beautiful gardens, friendly staff. Ziplining was great.
Bring bug repellent.
Boring. Lots of mosquitos. We did the walk on our own, waste of time and not a good map of the place.
We had an amazing time here. I would recommend this to anyone. We had young kids, teenagers and adults and everyone came away saying it was the most fun they'd had in a long time. The tour guide was amazing, the zip line instructors were great. I would give more stars if I could.
Fun hosts, beautiful maze and garden. Worth every dollar. Do it.
Took the segway tour with Dalton and he was awesome! Joslyn was so nice and treated us well! We had fun!
(Translated by Google) I was looking forward to it, but it was a zip line with the worst instructor who made a stupid statement to the Japanese who thought they didn't understand English. I don't want to go again (Original) 非常に楽しみにしていましたが日本人に対して英語が分からないと思ったのか馬鹿にした発言をする最悪なインストラクターがいるジップラインです。 二度と行きたくない
Good for all ages. Zip lining, Segway tours, maze or just a walk through the gardens
We had a great experience grandkids had a fun time
Jurassic Park revisited.
Great staff! Beautiful gardens! Picturesque Zipline!
Loved the truck around
So incredibly beautiful! Worth every penny!!
Went ziplining here. The lines are okay, not too exciting except the last two where you can go side by side. The staff were nice but kinda low energy.
If you have a child who wants to try ziplines, THIS is the place!! We have a very adventurous 5 year old who insisted she wanted to try ziplining.....we weren't sure if she would "wimp out" at the last minute (plus momma was a little nervous about this), but the guides were very good with her and kept things fun for her. But what really stood out to me, was the level of customer service we recieved. My husband and I also wanted to zip, but we also have a 2 year old, so of course we needed to take turns. Hubby went first with our 5 year old and there was extra room in the tour van, so they let us ride along and even drove us to the end of each line to take pictures which prevented me from having to push the stroller through some rugged terrain to try and watch!! Then when it was my turn they did the same for my husband and the kids, we were VERY grateful. This was not our first zipline experience, we had done them previously in Costa Rica and Botanical World definitely took more safety precautions and their brand new line is nearly a half mile long and Zips over a waterfall! One of the most amazing things we have ever done! After the Ziplines we walked the beautiful gardens and let the girls run through the Hedge maze which they thought was just a blast! It was probably our favorite activity in our two weeks on the Big Island :-)
Had an amazing time!!!
Just breathe taking. So beautiful and a great walk.
Lots of area sb to visit here. Easily a few hours for a day
Beautiful place
Great staff and experience. My 7 year old just barely made the cutoff but they made him feel comfortable and he had a blast. Same for my 10 year old.
Got to see a view of the ocean and natural country things. Workers of the zipline was cool
Beautiful gardens to wander through. Views of Mauna Kea, the ocean, waterfalls and wildlife. Friendly, funny and helpful staff.
If we were 20 years younger
One of the best attractions on the island. The staff are very friendly and knowledgeable. Would definitely do it again.
We got free tickets, so we saw falls and garden. Not worth $ unless you are a lay botanist. Didn't go zip lining though
Friendly helpful staff. Beautiful hike and Botanical garden. We even went back 2 days later to take family pictures.
Lots to see and do, ID plants, Zip line experience, Segways, water fall, and the best Tuesday FARMERS MARKET w/LIVE MUSIC on the Island.
The Hawaiian Tropical Botanical gardens was much better! This one was not kept well, fallen branches & debrea everwhere! Also the pathway was super confusing. Hardly anything in bloom (maybe 3 things). Just disappointing. Not worth the money. The only reason I gave it two stars instead of 1 was because there was a pretty good waterfall nearby (but those are free all over Hawaii) and also a Jackfruit tree & rainbow tree that wasn't at the other botanical gardens. Go to the other one!! Way nicer, full of flowers, ponds, and is way better kept!
A must see for anyone visiting Hilo! The gardens themselves were gorgeous and the hedge maze was too much fun. The small hike to the stream/waterfall on garden grounds wasn't much, in my opinion, since most of the view is obscured by landscape, and the trails were swarming with gnats and mosquitos. However, Kamae'e Falls was outstanding! It's a short scenic drive to a spectacular view. Our tickets were complimentary with our car rental, but we had planned to purchase tickets, and would recommend doing so. Sadly, we didn't take the rainforest walk tour, but that is also available.
Wonderful time exploring the waterfalls and flowers.
Wear bug spray and this is a definite stop on your list on the way to waterfalls.
Did the zipline tour over the waterfall. Wonderful and fun experience.
My friends enjoyed it very much. Very friendly staff !
Perfect with a kid under 70 lbs !
Great place to see interesting specimens
Jardin botanique intéressant, petites chutes d’eau accessibles et surtout un labyrinthe pas piqué des hannetons! Génial avec des enfants. Mais prenez de l’anti moustique ! L’activité de tyrolienne est excellente ! Les guides sont expérimentés et peuvent accompagner les enfants de moins de 32kg (70lbs) pour les 2 grandes tyroliennes. A 8 ans, un enfant peut faire les 5 premières sans problème. Avec l’activité de tyrolienne, vous avec accès au parc pendant une semaine !
Zip lne and segway tour are awesome!
Nice and funny zipline guides. They made a fun experience even more enjoyable. Level of course is probably beginner to intermediate. Although zipline isn't too high, if you have a fear of heights, you'll get distracted by the scenery. A very beautiful sight of the waterfall on the last zipline. The last zipline is longer (a little under a minute) so you get enough time to take in the view of the waterfall and the scenery. Family members who don't zipline can walk the trail with the zippers.
BWA was awesome! Tia, at registration, was so friendly. We then met our three zip line guides who were great at relaxing anyone who was nervous and put new harnesses on each person in the group. Another guide came by and checked the harness again. Then we had a very short drive into some of the most beautiful areas we've seen on the Big Island. We were given very clear instructions and safety procedures which the guides followed every single time. We felt so safe and cared for each time we were hooked onto a line (by a guide) and arrived safely at the other end where we were caught by one of the other guides. They were locals who loved this area, could tells us all of the plants and found mangosteens for us to eat. You have to try the zip lines yourself and look down as you cross over streams and rivers. I haven't even mentioned the well kept gardens, family maze and Segway tours around the gardens. Our family (2 adults, a 13 yr old boy & 15 yr old girl) can't wait to come back and do it all again.
Best on Big Island
Amazing tour guides and beautiful view on the zip
It's cost me $12 to do a quick ride to the waterfall but it's amazing view and I respect that it's private area and they can charge wherever they want.
A beautiful variety of Hawaiian botanicals
Zip lines were pretty cool, especially the last one. You get a great view of a big waterfall. Guides were very friendly & helpful. They also have a fun little maze in the garden that’s actually kind of tricky. Overall it was great!
Amazing
the adventures is pretty good but if you need to use the restroom theres no other option. you will use the restroom even if its dirty and all tissues are all over the toilet. if you want to improve the service make sure that costumers will have a clean restroom to use not a unmaintained one
We only did the 30 minute Aloha Tour because we had never ridden Segways before. You really need this before you try the more adventurous tours. If you are staying in Hilo plan to come here on two days so you can do the Aloha then have some more fun. If you are staying in Kailua-Kona the same outfit also has Segways there as well. You could take the Aloha in Kailua then do Botanical World Gardens on a day trip to Hilo. Riding a Segway is great fun and it soon becomes like part of your body. The guides are competent, helpful and patient. The Aloha starts in a parking lot til you get the feel of it. Then they take you into the garden to try your skills on grass, over ditches, etc. By the time you are done, you will be ready to take on the more ambitious tours. (BTW, my wife and I are in our 70s.) The guides also picked some fresh fruit right off the trees which is not like you find in you local supermarket. When we are next in Hawaii, we will definitely be back for at least one of the big tours. Maybe come a couple days. Can you tell we loved it :)
Great experience! Beautiful grounds and friendly staff. We did the 2 hour Segway tour, and it was tons of fun and a great way to see the garden. Definitely recommend.
Beautiful gardens but no real guide or path. We got lost and didn't see everything. Great waterfall!
A bit disappointing. Nice variety but somewhat difficult walking up and down. Much without good paths. Poor direction signage.
Aloha!!! My wife and I had an amazing time on the 2 hour segway/ botanical gardens/ waterfall tour! Being that this was our very FIRST time riding a segway, it was great that our guide familiarized us on the proper way to ride which was to my surprise, pretty easy. Full disclosure: I over steered and fell, but within a few minutes it was so easy to navigate; it felt natural! The staff was so friendly! They are ALL about aloha and the gardens with the ocean as a backdrop was absolutely STUNNING!!!! Looking forward to returning with our sons for the zipline tour! Mahalo!
Nice, family-oriented experience. No experience necessary. Our group leaders made it easy for elders, adults, and our kids to have a good time.
Incredibly friendly and accommodating. We had a great time on the Segways and the Zip Line. The maze was a lot of fun too!
Self-paced walking tours through very nice plant specimens. It was crazy seeing two jackfruit trees fully laden with fruit.
Beautiful scenery. Nice garden. Beautiful view of the waterfall. However they have porta potties. Ew
Beautiful grounds
Super fun zip lining adventure through the forest
The ziplining at this location is very fun and educational. The guys who guide us were really fun and helped us feel comfortable. As we trekked from line to line, they would stop and give us a quick lesson on the plants. The scariest part for me was the bridge. The ziplines start off pretty small and end with a really big dual zipline race. The place also offers a tour on segways with all-terrain wheels. You also get a free pass into the garden's maze. As with any place that has a lot of plants and humid temperatures keep some bug spray on you at all times.
It was FUN, AMAZING, AWESOME!!! Will definetely do it again. The staff are friendly and make sure everyone is safe. We had an 8 year old with us and they made her day, and ours one we will never forget!! Truly wonderful family experience for the 5 of us :-)
Most fun zip-lining experience I've ever had, the guides were funny and entertaining! Couldn't photograph each jump in fear of losing my camera but the final view across the hill overlooking the ocean was amazing!
Used a travelzoo voucher to visit this place. Was hardly worth the stop off, there was nothing you couldn't see for free elsewhere and the facilities were basic. A very underwhelming waterfall and boring walk around the grounds.
My family recently toured the gardens and tried out the zipline. It was fun for the middle aged, teens and kids in our group. The gardens were incredible. I would love to have family pictures taken there and could spend hours photographing the gardens. All the employees, especially Nohei, were helpful and kind. The zipline was amazingly beautiful. The instructors were so great and even let us sample wild Golden Berries along the way. This is definitely a well organized company with a big heart!
Awesome team there. Very safe. I will also do a review on trip advisor. Heather did an awesome job with the visit to the garden. The 3 guides that took us on the lines were excellent.
Its essentially free to roam the vast gardens. Paths are modestly maintained, but amenities are thin. Still, the array of plants, trees, and flowers is impressive and many plants are identified by placards. There is a maze for the kids that is alright... not too difficult but not lame. Ziplines, we were told by everyone, are amazing and worth the high price. It definitely is worth the stop on the road to Hilo.
We decided to try the Botanical World Zip Isle Zip Line Adventure. My husband and I had done zip lining before but our friends had never zip lined before and were very apprehensive. The office staff Kika and Nikki were so friendly and approachable and explained how the tour works and gave us detailed line descriptions. Our first impression from the check in staff was very positive. It just got better from there. Pono and Kawika were our zip line guides. It was raining and wet but we decided to go ahead and continue the tour anyway as time was limited. Both guides were absolutely wonderful. They explained the safety features and ensured that we were tethered in securely and safely each and every time. On a side note, Pono has an incredible sense of humor and pointed out quite a lot of native plants and had us try several native fruit along the way. There were a few lines where we had to wait for the crew on the other side to set up. While waiting on the platform Pono and Kawika had us rolling with laughter as they told us joke after joke keeping us entertained and amused. We thoroughly enjoyed our zip line tour and the rain didn’t even bother us as Pono and Kawika made the tour so enjoyable that the wetness was secondary. The scenery while zip lining was breathtaking with a gorgeous waterfall on the last line. We would highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting the area. If you can request them, please ask for Pono and Kawika. One amazing team for sure!
Nice place - the ladies who work there are full of aloha - great place for the keiki to run around
You need to schedule the whole day her because there is so much to see and do! The garden tour was fun and very interesting and the zip-line was a real class act. the personel are friendly and informative.
Such a beautiful place! We did the Segway tour... AMAZING!!! YOU WILL LOVE THIS PLACE...paradise within paradise!
Amazing guides, Dakota was the best! So wonderful with my 8yo daughter, made her day!
Cool waterfalls. Cheap entrance fee.
Amazing Views! Our first zip-line adventure and we enjoyed every-bit of it. The staff were so much fun, they made sure we had a good time and safety was their main thing. Well worth the money!
Great zipline adventure, good botanical garden. Some guides were great (Norton, Jay, Randy), others not so much.
Great information on the huge variety of plsnts. Fun w as y yo spend a few hours, the falls were beautiful as well.
If you love nature, you will love the Botanical World adventure.
Great fun.Worth the money.
Jaw dropping zip lining and outstanding flowers and trees awesome staff
Wearth the time
My entire family enjoyed the Zipline. The staff was very friendly and helpful.
Beautiful place
Very fun ziplines for beginners
Fantastic zipline tour! The guides were amazing, the scenery was breathtaking and each zip was totally different so well worth it!! It's been on my daughters bucket list for years and she said it was amazing. Highly recommend checking Groupon, we saved quite a bit of money that way!
My friend works there as Segue guide..very long amazing natural beauty Aloha
We got to pick our own fruit in the orchard. The starfruit was delicious fresh off the tree! Great place for floral pictures
Fantastic place cool trees
This place is ok. The waterfall is not spectacular.
JUST DO THIS TOUR! RIDING THE SEGWAYS THROUGH THE GARDEN AND TERRAIN IS AN UNFORGETTABLE EXPERIENCE. OUR WHOLE FAMILY HAD A BLAST. THANK YOU, TOMMY! YOU ARE A GREAT GUIDE.
Awesome helpful staff that really make the tour more enjoyable, great zip line course for first timers or not. Awesome views and overall a great experience!
Fun!!!!
My husband and I live in Honokaa and we brought his sons on their vist from the mainland, we had a great time. It was our first time on a zipline but won't be our last. The guides Kyle and Randy were very helpful and put us at ease. We absolutely loved the views from the ziplines, there are 8 in total the last zipline is about a half mile long! It takes you over a beautiful waterfall. It's like nothing we've ever experienced. Brittany in the front office was a joy as well. We recommend Botanical World Adventures Zip Isle to all who visit the Big Island.
This place was great, my partner loved the variety of Plants and Trees here, especially the rainbow eucalyptus. We took full advantage of the package we paid for, trip through the botanical gardens, walking down to the riverwalk, we drove up to the waterfall and walked our way through the rainforest. Truly stunning views and such a variety of botanical items was awesome to see in one place. Definitely recommend even if you don't want to take part in the ziplineing or Segway that they also have on offer.
Beautiful gardens and trails. A must see attraction.
Beautiful
Great crew members/employees
Lots of interesting info on island pants, fun hedge maze, beautiful plants and waterfalls, and friendly staff.
Had a great time at the Botanical gardens. Really nice view of a waterfall. Really luscious walking paths with well-labelled plants. Enjoyed the maze and rainbow road path in particular. One pass is good for the whole week. Good value for the price. Worth checking out!
I have zipped lined and segwayed here multiple times and it's always great. The staff is knowledgeable and amusing. The grounds are beautiful and the sights from the lines are like no where else.
I was born and raised here, and had never been here till recently. It is a beautiful, hidden oasis. They also have a little maze, surrounded by interesting plants.
Soooo beautiful....and the customer service was excellent.
Trails needed more upkeep but over all it was great to see all the plants and trees.
Great experience!!! Family had such a wonderful time. Would highly recommend.
Maze is fun, plants need some care.
We went on the zip-line tour here, and walked through the botanical garden, maze and river walk. The grounds are beautiful and the maze was fun, but the zip-line tour blew us away! Our guides, Dovie and Randy were absolutely amazing. They taught us about all of the beautiful plants as we walked and had us laughing the entire time. They took amazing photos from our tour that we will love forever. The zip lines were so fun and in the most beautiful area. I would go back to this place again and again, and can't wait to bring the kids someday. Thank you Dovie and Randy!
We have been to botanical world adventure four times now it’s a fun place to explore and get some fresh air and have a adventure. My four year old daughter loves being a explorer walking through the maze she also loved having a picnic here. Breath taking view of rolling hills and cattle and don’t forget waterfalls too! On our last visit we went zip lining and let me tell you this was a memory for our books the staff is really friendly ,reassuring and funny! Very kid friendly my daughter had a blast! Definitely recommend this gem of a place we where beyond blessed with our adventure! Thank you uncle Pono and uncle randy ! Cheehoo
Beautiful. Really enjoyed the segwey tours and the zip lining experience.
The zip line your was a blast. I would go back in a heartbeat.
Had a great time here
Lots of fun, plenty to do, plenty to see, bring bug spray and sunscreen. Also their porta-johns are the best I've ever used, really top notch and clean.
Coolest views
Lots of fun in the Segway but don't be expecting a in deepth Botanical tour it is mostly zooming around but lots of fun all the same!
Pretty cool place. We went for their Easter egg hunt and then walked through their gardens.
Segway was way too fun! Gorgeous place with lots to do.
What an amazingly beautiful place!!! I can't wait to go back! There are so many beautiful flowers and trees from all over the world. I wish they made a perfume that smelled as good as the flowers there. They have a lot of trails for you to walk and you can zip line through the garden. I'd strongly recommend going, especially if you love the outdoors.
My 11 year old daughter loved her zip line experience. I had to accompany her, but it was worth it and lots of fun. The staff was very helpful and friendly. Good starter place for zip lines.
Not organized and not kept up very well...the "waterfall" was very small, and the bugs were extreme. A few of the signs were unreadable due to be broken or rusted. Restrooms aka: honeybuckets, had no toilet paper, no hand sanitizer, and were almost full to the rim!!!
Real close to nature. Ample paths and nice view of the waterfalls
Great value to see the gardens for a day.
In the middle of paradise lays an extreme example of blooming botanicals from around the world. Don't miss it!
Great place to go for a day and just chill out. Bring a picnic and relax with friends or family. Enjoy waterfalls, hedge mazes, trees of all kinds as well as many Hawaiian plants. Beautiful addition to your Hawaiian vacation. Make sure to bring the camera, as there will be so many beautiful shots you want to hold on to for a lifetime.
Love the maze and great for a nature walk with your fam
We had am awesome time here. My husband and I had a 30 min segway tour with Norton and he was great. He let us try some fruit right off the tree! The front desk staff was very friendly and helpful. The gardens was beautiful and there's even a little maze to go through. We had a wonderful time here, will definitely recommend this place.
The maze want easy. Super cool plants.
What a beautiful experience! Ziplined over waterfalls through gorgeous plant life! The staff was friendly, funny, knowledgeable, and courteous! If you want a safe, fun, and thrilling experience, this is a must!
Beautiful gardens, lots of native specimens
What great place to see the beauty of The Big Island up close and personal.
Sort of a mismatch of things here (well it is Hawaii). We enjoyed the botanical gardens, very extensive and informal. Maze is well worth exploring. Kids liked the zip line here- much less expensive than others especially if you get a Groupon coupon. Waterfall is all by itself surrounded by pastures (old sugarcane fields) pretty falls but there are so many on this side of the island that are better- don't go just for it.
Amazing land. Amazing variety of fruits and tropical plants. Loved it. Garden maze and waterfalls as well
If you go make sure you have shoes that can get muddy or take a segway tour. There is little annoying bugs in the grass throughout the whole place. The waterfall is pretty but small (about 10ft tall) and the trail to it is muddy. The one positive is the wide variety of tropical plants, especially trees, it is just not the funnest environment for walking around to see them. If you want water bring lots of your own, it isn't cheap here and refilling is virtually not possible.
I like the lines and our guides were great. They even took a bunch of pics and said they would be available at the end. So the low rating was for after... We never got the pics, never even got to see them. Instead of just dropping the memory card in their computer to download, their desk person showed no interest in trying nothing but their non- assistant Wi-Fi. Ony if we paid ahead without ever viewing them would we ever see the pics, since their weren't a quilt to put them online for purchase.
Our whole family really love Botanical World Adventures. Great waterfalls that we're very easy to get to. It's a beautiful place and very educational. This is definitely a must be
Had a great time. Guides were amazing, the Segway was fun, and delicious fruit off the tree!
Better than I ever imagined
Great advanture for all ages and families! We had plenty of fun! Many thank to Mike from the kona inn and the instructors it was amazing :)
Was ok. Everything wasn't a far walk
