Are you looking for a truly exciting way to see all the best sights on the Big Island? If so, you need to join The Umauma Experience for adventures to remember. The fun and excitement starts at their home base in Hakalau, and then takes you all over their little corner of paradise. Their giant swing used to bring visitors in from far and wide, but unfortunately, that adventure has been discontinued. Instead, ziplines, ATV tours, horseback rides, and even kayak trips all await your arrival.
To start making memories to last a lifetime, you’ll need to sign up for your adventures of choice in advance. They’re exceptionally busy year-round, after all, so walk-ins are just not doable. The only exception to that rule is their Umauma Falls & Gardens guided tour. When you sign up, you’ll get to select your ideal date, time, and tour type. Then, all you have to do is show up and they’ll handle the rest.
Their adventures happen rain or shine, so you don’t have to worry about the weather. But you should dress for the conditions and all the fun to come your way. On all their tours, wear well-fitting closed-toe shoes, plus secure your glasses with a strap. Consider putting your phone in a waterproof bag as well. Don’t forget to bring a light waterproof jacket on rainy days and wear your swimsuit if you’re going in the water.
For all the adventures, your instructors will go all out in helping you feel comfortable in navigating the obstacles. They’ll provide guidance and support every step of the way plus keep your safety in mind always.
Don’t miss out on the:
9-Line Zipline Tour
The 9-Line Zipline Tour takes you on an exhilarating trip across the tropical landscape at a stunning 65 MPH. All along the way, you’ll see 14 gorgeous waterfalls nestled in the lush rainforest. You even get to cross a suspension bridge over a river gorge filled with lava tubes and a fern grotto.
Deluxe ATV
If you’d like to stay closer to the ground without missing out on all the action, go on the Deluxe ATV tour. This trip allows you to pilot powerful all-terrain vehicles across their 5.5-mile private course. Breaktime at the waterfall lets you refuel for more fun while enjoying the dazzling sights.
Zip N Dip
If you cannot choose between all their adventures, treat yourself to the Zip N Dip. On this trip, you’ll get to go on the full 9-line zipline course before kayaking, swimming, and standup paddleboarding the day away. Lunch completes the experience as does plenty of rest and relaxation in paradise.
In between all your adventures, head on over to the Visitors Center Deli & Gift Shop. You can shop your heart out for exceptional souvenirs to bring back home, including tons of locally made products. On top of that, they sell freshly prepared sandwiches plus tasty refreshments, so you can get energized for even more fun. To enjoy the view while you eat, just settle in on the back lanai and watch as the zipline tours come back to the start of the ride.
