This was a highlight of our trip! We are a family of 2 40- something year olds and 2 teenagers. Everyone had a blast! This was our first time zip lining and our guides were awesome. They reassured us that we were safe and that our job was to just have fun and enjoy the ride. Wish we could go... More

Not only was this my first trip to Hawaii but it was my first zip lining experience as well. Curtis and Buddha were hilarious and very knowledgeable about the local land and agriculture. We stayed in Kona for a little over a week trying many different activities and this was by far the best experience I had on the island.... More

We took our two teenage sons and could not have asked for more! Curtis and Shane were very informative about the islands history and the plants and wildlife on the area. Everyone in our group had such a great time. Recommend it to everyone!

NO.......the two young staff, Kia and Curtiss, were so encouraging, funny, kind and helpful that after my first line (With trepidation)... More

Seems to me that ziplining could be a flash-in-the-pan experience but this tour made it an event. Great crew, not-rushed pace, built in break with snacks in the coolest shelter (tree house-like experience) overlooking a lush gorge, fresh macadamia nuts. Highly recommended!

We were first-timers to ziplining and had a fantastic time! The views are gorgeous and guides are very knowledgeable. Overall, a very fun experience. It wasn't scary at all. And the hut in the middle had some delicious snacks. Highly recommend, especially if you've never been ziplining before!

This was my partner and I's first time zip lining and we found Big Island Eco Adventures on the TripAdvisor forums. Our two zipline tour guides were really wonderful (Anthony and I can't remember the young woman's name unfortunately). They were really friendly, funny, and informative about ziplining as well as other things to do/see on the Big Island. I... More
