MUST DO IF YOU’RE ON THE BIG ISLAND! The staff was very funny and welcoming, me and my fiancée were visiting the island and got there two hours early. The place is absolutely beautiful, and very calm. The ATV ride with the waterfall was one of our top moments from our vacation. If you’re on the island please stop by! You won’t be disappointed

Breath taking Scenery!

Tania_N, Jan 2026
Wha a great way to spend a few hours. The sites are stunning, the water fall was relaxing! Our guides were friendly, fun and full of knowledge. Looking out at all the scenery was worth it all!

Overrated ATV experience. Don’t waste your time or money

Robin_R, Dec 2025
Not worth the money . The promised views were nothing special . Waterfall was nothing special. Leaders were sweet enough. If you’re staying near Kona, this was a very long (but pretty) drive for a very subpar experience.

Awesome time!

Perry_Z, Oct 2025
A great experience! Very fun driving through the rugged fields, and the views and scenery are amazing! All of the staff is super friendly and helpful to assure a memorable awesome time.

Great, dusty ride experience!!

Wendy_g, Oct 2025
Wear a bandana around your face & do not wear white clothing! Chloe and Alicia were amazing tour guides were fantastic guides both on the tour and at the falls.

Amazing Experience!!

Molly_V, May 2025
Amazing experience!! Staff was super helpful and friendly, the ride was a lot of fun and the waterfall and pond were absolutely gorgeous and SO refreshing. One callout: consider bringing a bandana or face covering to protect your face from dust or mud!

Amazing Adventure

Eeron_W, Apr 2025
This was an amazing trip that utilize all five senses. We can feel the breeze as we traveled and taste the clay as we rode through the ATV trails. We could smell nature as we travel throughout, and we can see beauty In every direction. It was an amazing experience, and I recommended for anyone who wants to engage in the island instead of just viewing it.

Experience was a ton of...

Brandon_E, Mar 2025
Experience was one of the best on the Island. We went when it was raining and it made it a lot more fun and we got very muddy. Chloe and Kiana were great guides and made sure that we saw everything in the property and got plenty of pictures.

Excellent tour, got to...

Ansh_J, Mar 2025
Excellent tour, got to stop by great views and get some snacks along the way! Tour guides were extremely friendly and helpful.

We had an absolute blast...

Adam_F, Feb 2025
We had an absolute blast on this tour. My husband and I got a side-by-side and the tour guides were friendly and knowledgeable. They did a great job of leading the group and we stopped in a couple places for some pictures. The waterfall and swim area was absolutely gorgeous.

Such a fun experience!

Spencer_L, Oct 2024
The ATV tour was a wonderful experience! The guides are very knowledgeable about the park, and do a great job at explaining how to operate the UTV’s. We booked our tour on a Wednesday in October, and we were the only 2 on the tour (in our time slot) that day. The swimming experience was a lot of fun! There’s a spot to change at the bottom of the waterfall, so that was nice! A fun thing to note is the swimming hole is all spring water, so it’s not salty! The ATV tour itself was a lot of fun too! A guide leads you to which path to follow, and you can really go at your own pace on the trail. I definitely recommend this to anyone wanting something fun to do on land!

Get up on all fours!

Arleen_T, Aug 2024
This was an amazing experience! This was my son's most favorite exxursion while on Big Island. Just to see his face glow up made my day! The waterfall swim was an awesome end to our excursion!! Kiera and Landon were amazing tour guides!

ATV and waterfall experience for the books!

Gloria_R, Aug 2024
I can not rave enough about this experience. It was great driving through such picturesque scenery and the tour guides were so nice, helpful and fun! Apart from the drive, being able to swim by the waterfall was one of the highlights of our trip. It was dusty when the ATV path was dry so I recommend taking bandanas to cover your face and wearing clothes you don't care about getting dirty. Overall this was an AWESOME and beautiful experience and I definitely recommend!

Awesome Girls Day Adventure

Cynthia_H, Nov 2023
ATV trails were a lot of fun!! Extremely dusty, so recommend adding "dust bandanas" to your packing list. We thought it was fun getting dirty then ending with a swim at the end of the ride. Bathroom and shower facilities are available and clean.

Mostly cows, not many waterfalls

David_v, Oct 2023
The setting for this ATV tour was beautiful. However the ride, promoted as a Waterfall tour was more a ride through a cow pasture…including cows that blocked the trail. We had a good time, the staff was nice…this was the first activity we booked in Hawaii I’d likely not recommend to friends

Virtually taken for a ride

Valerie_J, Sep 2023
We did not show up because the location was sent to us the day before the event. It was two hours from our resort, which was ridiculous. I tried to contact someone but could not. This put a bad feeling on my vacation. Will not book with them again.

Yes we recommend this!

Timothy_N, Sep 2023
The ATV trails were so much fun and easy to navigate. Our guides Chloe and Shawnee were funny, professional and encouraging. Both of them were delightful. The Center is beautiful and relaxing with lovely landscaping. We'd recommend this to anyone visiting the area.

Fun times

Vanessajune_A, Aug 2023
Fun experience! The trail was super fun and expect to get dirty so bring a towel! The snacks were a surprise and thr waterfalls were fun. Relaxing experience overall

Must do!

Steven_S, Jul 2023
We had the best time. Our operator guides Cloey and Rusty were awesome. We drove around on some nice land with beautiful views.. We got to swim in a secluded pc of water with a beautiful waterfall. My fiancé and I had the best time with this experience. Thank you again for all you had to offer. There was also a beautiful garden that we got to see with beautiful plants and flowers after the tour is over with. The whole pc of land there was magical. We had quite the experience!!!

EXCELLENT

Gary_N, Jul 2023
Guides were amazing, loved this experience ! Will definitely do again! Beautiful waterfall, fun getting in the water 😎

Muddy Fun!

Al_J, Jul 2023
The guides, Chris and Colby, were great! They catered to our speed, fast when good riders were on and slower when there weren't. Super personable, nice guys!

Great time

Geri_V, Jul 2023
Khloe and her partner were amazing. They had high energy and were very kind and patient with everyone. It’s a very adventure for everyone.

A must do!

MAYLISAJOY_K, May 2023
Went solo on this adventure and was a little nervous, however everyone was so kind and helpful. They made me feel comfortable and it was a great ride and the swim at the waterfall was a bonus. The guide even picked guava for everyone to taste.

Rainy Day Fun

Shelly_S, Feb 2023
We visited during a very rainy week where most of our activities canceled. It was such a relief and a lot of fun to drive the ATV during the rain! The provided shower room was perfect to get cleaned up and ready for the rest of our day!

Great trip beautiful...

Carol_T, Nov 2022
Great trip beautiful scenery loved the waterfall and swim hole. Our guides were great and the ATV portion was a blast

Great staff, better harness fitting needed

Anna_B, Aug 2022
We did the Deluxe ATV experience (amazing) and the 9-line zipline (horrible) which is why I gave this excursion 3 stars. The staff for the ATV experience were very personable, sweet, and helpful and I had so much fun, I was literally smiling the entire time. While the staff for the zip line experience were also nice, someone GREATLY misjudged my harness size, which made for THE most uncomfortable and painful zipline that I’ve ever had, so much so that I had to tap out after only one zip. I’m kind of perplexed as to why that would even happen given that they take your weight when you first check-in.

Dust in your face

Javier_G, Aug 2022
The tour is fun and a nice experience for the most part. However I would like to recommend that the company water down the trail before going. We rode in a 4 seater which means we were in the back of the pack. We could see anything due to the red dust in our face and could not enjoy it. The waterfall is small but pretty.

Very cool experience

Aline_S, Aug 2022
The ATV tour was super cool. Lots of fun. You can cliff dive at the waterfall and swim but the time there is SOOOO short. :( I wish we had more time at the waterfall. Also the ride back on the ATV is pretty short. Just when you’re getting the hang of the thing - on the way back you don’t get to play on the ATV again. Was a cool experience for sure - just wish we could spend more time at the fall and that the ATV tour would return the way we came. The view of the triple waterfall is so worth it though - it’s private property so no way to see it any other way. Very cool.

The Mud Ride

maria_G, Aug 2022
This was my daughters first time driving an ATV, so we have a few problem navigating the mud but Erin and Erin was really great …. help us go through the difficulties. Excellent customer service. Thanks to Erin and Erin!

Our great experience

Sheila_M, Aug 2022
