“Kiddy Zipline”

Reviewed February 15, 2012

The guides where excellent. The zip lines where very short, slow, quite mild except the last double line was acceptable.. Maybe good for a 6- 10 year old. More

Mahalo for the kind words. We are so pleased you joined us. Our guides really do have the local feel of Aloha spirit. All our staff is encouraged to share the true feeling of our aina (land) with those visitors to the island that become our guests. We hope you will return often and next time try our Segway tours...
