How To Get Here
From Hilo: Take Highway 19 toward Waimea. You will see a pedestrian overpass at the 15 mile marker, then a long bridge over a gulch a short time later. At the top of the hill, just past the 16 mile marker, turn left at the paved Leopolino Road, then right after a block at the next paved road (Old Mamalahoa Highway) to reach the gardens.
From Kona or Waimea: Take 19 (or 190) to Waimea and go toward Hilo on Highway 19. We are about 10 minutes beyond the Laupahoehoe Train Museum at mile marker 25. You will come to a bridge over the Umauma Gulch after the 17 mile marker. Look for our sign that will be on the hillside on the right side of the road just past the bridge. Slow down as you go up hill past the bridge as the right turn is partly hidden and easy to miss. Turn right at Leopolino Road, the first paved road past the bridge. In one block, turn right at the next paved road (Old Mamalahoa Highway) to reach Zip Isle, which is just one block farther.
Why People Love Botanical World Adventures
Wonderful! They had 4 guides with us that took care of us and made sure everyone was safe. They were patient with the kids and retrieved one of the kids that got close to the destination but then started sliding back. They were great!

Lots of fun, with great guides. Learned about native plants too! Last two ziplines were wonderful, with a waterfall as a bonus! You don't have to worry about doing your own braking and can enjoy the ride and the scenery. Recommend for first-timers and zipline veterans.
– Barbara N., TripAdvisor
My husband and I had a great time! Our guide really made the experience more enjoyable. He taught us the Segway basics and entertained us with facts about the botanical garden and the island. We really enjoyed this tour and would definitely recommend it to anyone that is looking for a fun, unique experience!

Norton was our guide and did a great job! If you’ve been on a Segway before but not on the “off road” X2, it’s a nice twist to go on a little rougher terrain without worrying about hurting the machine. They’re quite rugged and easy to ride.

My sister and I had a great time! The guides were super nice and always made sure you were safe. The zip lines themselves were awesome, there were some really great views. It was our first time zip lining and we absolutely loved it. I would definitely come again!

We had a great time zip lining at Botanical World Adventures, friendly staff in reception handled or booking over the phone and the zip lining guides were friendly and made everyone feel at ease. Well worth a visit if you are on the Big Island!
