8-Hour Tour from Kona

You'll be picked up from the Kona airport at a predetermined time and board a comfortable, air-conditioned helicopter for a 1-hour helicopter flight to Hilo. Fly over a lush tropical rainforest and approach an active volcano covered in dried black lava.

Feel your adrenaline rush as your expert pilot safely navigates through columns of steam and smoke rising from the volcanic landscape. You'll then circle back and head north past Hilo into waterfall country, where you'll see majestic Rainbow Falls and Akaka Falls before landing and enjoying a scenic drive to the zipline course.

Covering miles of gorgeous tropical river gorges, the 8-line zip course offers stunning views of multiple waterfalls. Strap in and let your certified instructors guide you along one of the longest lines on the island at more than 2,300 feet (701 meters) in length! Admire the gorgeous tropical landscape and spot wildlife as you soar 160 feet (49 meters) above the ground.

After your zipline adventure, enjoy a picnic lunch. Light snacks and water are also provided throughout the tour. At the end of the day, hop back on the helicopter and soak in more tropical views on the 45-minute return flight to Kona.
5-Hour Tour from Hilo This helicopter tour and zipline adventure from Hilo features the same itinerary, however the helicopter flight is shorter and bypasses waterfall country for more time on the ziplines.
