About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- O8582ARanne0 contributionsBest ziplining experience ever!I haven't ziplined in 20 years, and I will admit I was pretty nervous, especially after hearing about some terrifying experiences with other companies. But there was nothing to be worried about here! Koa and T were amazing guides, and they helped us every step of the way. One of them was always at the beginning of the line, and one always at the end to catch us. They gave incredibly clear instructions on how to be sure we made it to the end of the line so we didn't get stuck, as well as how to slow down if necessary. They gave very good signals to remind us what we should be doing as we approached the end of each line in case we were distracted by the amazing views! The course itself was so beautiful and seemed very well-designed. There is a bit of hiking involved so participants should be prepared for that. This was worth every penny!Written 18 March 2025
- shaunthompson880 contributionsBeauty of Scenery & Professionalism of Guides Make a Big DifferenceI've been zip lining several times before, but what set this experience apart was the beautiful scenery and the excellent guides. Grace and Junior made this an incredibly memorable experience and had us laughing and feeling comfortable the entire time!Written 16 March 2025

- brandyscott190 contributionsAbsolutely AmazingThis was my second time zipping and it was the best so far. The views were spectacular, breathtaking, and absolutely stunning. Our guides did a great job making us feel safe and ensuring we had a great experienceWritten 28 January 2025
- BarHopIowan0 contributionsFantastic timeLoved this adventure.. Our guides were great.. We had a smaller group so things went quickly when it was time to do each line, which allowed us more time to talk and get some history of the area.. I really hope this area stays a conservation area, although there are rumors that the land has been sold...Written 26 January 2025
- ryancapalbo0 contributionsZipping!!Great family adventure with stunning views and even a bit of exercise. Highly recommend and extremely convenient for folks staying in Poipu. Staff was great. It was one of those adventures I can see us talking about for years to come.Written 21 January 2025
- jrstolt120 contributionsGREAT EXPERIENCEThis is a great place to zipline. Koa to T were amazing as well. We had a family of 5 and all 5 of us have zero complaints. Nothing but rants and raves.Written 14 January 2025
- mmhines8080 contributionsBirthday FunGrace and Edward were great guides and took good care of us. My boys all enjoyed every minute of it along with the rain. This was my 9yr old bday giftWritten 11 January 2025
- Adventurer5522990 contributionsKoloa Zipline is fantastic!We had a really great time with the Koloa Zipline Crew. Our guides (Jessica & Chance) were knowledgeable, well spoken, considerate of everyone, and fun to spend over 3 hours together with. Group sizes seem to be capped at a maximum of 12 and we had a full group, but with staggered tour times, our wait times were reasonable. You will need to arrive 30 minutes before your tour to check-in, and this occurs at the main offices, which is about a 5 minute drive from the tour starting point, so keep that in mind. We chose Koloa Zipline over the other options based on the Ultimate Kauai Guidebook (13th edition.), and believe the books recommendation was spot-on. There are 8 zip lines, and about a mile of hiking throughout the tour, with some fairly steep up hill climbs, but totally manageable. The tour progresses nicely, starting with a fairly short zip (about 250 ft) , culminating with the longest run of the 8 (about a half mile). The tour starts near the oldest Sugar Mill on the island, and traverses around a water reservoir, while offering beautiful lush forest as well as expansive ocean views. All in all, if this is your first time zip lining or you are a seasoned veteran, Koloa Zipline offers a very nice and fun experience.Written 7 January 2025
- dorinevidal0 contributionsAmazing!!!One of the best memories from our trip to Kauai! We had such a wonderful time! The view was amazing and I really felt safe. Jayden and Grace were so nice and made us feel comfortable. My daughter even did the upside down figure. I would definitely go back and recommend :)Written 6 January 2025
- anniemtate0 contributionsSuper fun and safeWe had a great day with Junior and Freddie. It was so amazing and felt very safe and exhilarating. Would recommend as a family activity to anyone!!Written 6 January 2025
- LordOfTheImmortals0 contributionsWill do it all over againAn adrenaline-pumping adventure that was an absolute highlight of our trip to Kauai. From the moment we arrived, the staff was friendly, professional, and made us feel safe and excited for the journey ahead. The ziplines themselves were breathtaking. Soaring over the lush landscapes, with panoramic views of the mountains and ocean, was simply awe-inspiring.Written 3 January 2025

This zip line tour way surpassed my expectations. The guides, Grace and Hayden, were very personable, fun and took every measure to ensure everyone’s safety. I’ve done zip lines before that felt like ages between each zip. The loading and unloading of each flyer was so speedy, it didn’t really feel like we had any downtime. Water was provided during many of the stops, and delicious Anahola granola bars were provided towards the end. The guides pointed out where movies were filmed on the island and took lots of photos for everyone, including fun Dino themed pics. The sights were unbelievable.
Grace was especially great. She spent much of the time talking with our 7yo daughter to make her feel comfortable and not at all nervous. She even went so far as to let our daughter zip tandem with her a couple of times. This is by far the best zip line experience I have done and would wholly recommend it to anyone even curious to try. You won’t be disappointed.

The zip lines were really cool but the guides we had made it so much more fun. Koa and Kaili were excellent. They took good care of our group and did it with a smile. They start slow with easy zip lines and finish with a very long, very fast final line. We were out for 3.5 hours and had so much fun, highly recommend this outfit and if you’re lucky enough to have the guides we had, you’ll surely have an unforgettable experience.

Absolutely incredible experience! Koa and Ed made our zipline adventure unforgettable. Not only were they extremely professional and safety-conscious, but they also kept us laughing the entire time with their hilarious jokes and banter. Their energy was contagious, and they went above and beyond to make sure everyone felt comfortable and had fun.
The combination of stunning views and their fantastic sense of humor made this tour a highlight of our trip. Highly recommend this duo if you’re looking for a fun, safe, and memorable zipline experience.

This Zipline experience was amazing. We had Grace and Karson as our guides. We didn’t have a full group, we only had 9 people which made getting through the course a little quicker. There are two short hikes you have to do between some of the lines and while they are short, they are steep and somewhat challenging if you’re not used to being that active. Our guides were both amazing with us. Grace and Karson both kept us laughing and made us feel comfortable and safe. They provide water and granola bars on the course. Grace offered to take photos of us and went the extra mile to make sure a dinosaur made an appearance in some of them as well. Grace and Karson made sure we were educated on all we needed to know to have fun but be safe. All but one person in our group tried the upside down position. It looked a lot scarier than it was, although the Superman position was definitely the best. If you don’t mind using porta potties, they have some when you check in and when you go get your gear on but you can also walk across the street from where you check in to use a regular bathroom before heading to the second location to meet your guides. They have a communal locker you can put things in you don’t want to carry on the course with you. You can keep your phone with you to take pics/videos but just make sure it’s secured with a strap or in a fanny pack so that you don’t lose it. Some of the ramps up to the platforms were steeper than others but they had little wood pieces that helped you keep a good grip. Grace and Karson were both really good about telling everyone to take their time when we had to take the steep hikes between lines. They didn’t make us feel rushed at all. We definitely left sweaty and ready for a shower but we had such a good experience and would absolutely do it again!

If you’re looking for an adventure that will make you question your life choices while soaring through the air at exhilarating speeds, look no further! This zip line tour was absolutely incredible, thanks to our fearless (and slightly unhinged) guides, James and Ed.
James was the calm and reassuring presence we all needed, making sure harnesses were snug, nerves were soothed, and that nobody accidentally flung themselves into the abyss unprepared.
Then there was Ed—ah, Ed. With flowing golden locks that glistened in the sun like a Norse god, he blessed us not only with his safety expertise but also with a steady stream of dad jokes that had my son cackling and my soul questioning reality. And let’s not forget my 12-year-old, who went for the dramatic finish by not quite making it to the last platform. No worries—Ed, in all his golden-haired glory, flew out like a majestic zip-lining rescue ranger to retrieve him.
The views were breathtaking, the adrenaline was pumping, and thanks to James and Ed, we left with our dignity mostly intact. 10/10 would absolutely zip again—if only to hear more of Ed’s glorious dad jokes and stare longingly at his shampoo-commercial-worthy hair.
Book this tour. You won’t regret it—unless you chicken out on the first platform, in which case James will probably still be super nice about it.

The views are fantastic, it’s very well organized with safety being the top priority, and it was very fun and easy to do all of the lines.
Kailey (Sp) and Grace were amazing and really added that extra touch to engage and ensure everyone was having a good time and doing it safely.
I highly recommend this company and zip line tour. They do provide a snack bar or two and water so you do get some rest time in between lines.
I recommend you alter who goes first so that person can take video of the rest of the people as they come in. It’s better to tape from the far side (where you’re going) vs when you start the zip line. We did that and used AirPlay to transfer videos with the other guests.

From start to finish was exciting, on the way to the zip lines we were entertained by Lucas with his jokes to loosen everyone up and get us ready for some great experiences. Once we arrived we had Jaiden the instructor give us all an understanding of what each lines was and what to expect. Throughout the journey of each line they both would wait up for everyone on the party and always ask if everyone was good. They even ate purple flowers and started acting silly. They both did a great job of making everyone feel comfortable and made it an enjoyable till the end.

Freddie and Hayden were amazing guides and made sure we were all safe throughout the adventure. They were very patient with the entire group and made sure we had a wonderful experience on Kauai. Part of group was a little nervous about the experience while others were excited to try different positions on the lines. The guides were encouraging with all of us and made sure everyone had fun. We also appreciated that they carried water for us to make sure we were comfortable on the short hikes between the zip lines. Compared to the other time I have been zip lining in another country, this felt safer and the guides really seemed to know what they were doing. I also appreciated being able to do the tandem rides on the longer lines with my son because he did not weigh enough to go on his own.

Amazing. I've done Zipline adventures before and this one was superb. Solid, well kept equipment. Great views. Minor walking between the lines. Very solid structures and cables with stable platforms. I appreciate the options they offer for how you can hang. Getting to "Superman" was a thrill.
The reason we would return would be the staff. Our guides, Ed and Jayden, were remarkable. We had some hesitant first timers, ranging from 9-60+ and then some more adventurous types but these two gave us all the confidence that our safety was secure and we could focus on enjoying the time.
As a father of four and a manager of an automotive dealership I was able to recognize the safety processes that were in place, quickly and discreetly done on every go by Jayden and Ed. They were so familiar with the safety checks they did them without any interruption and the fun we were having. Other places will over emphasize the possibility of unsafe practices and it can spiral people who are nervous, these guys were solid with confidence and brought in humor where appropriate.
GREAT MEMORIES. A genuine thank you to Ed and Jayden. (P.S. Jayden or Ed, if you're ever needing a job on the mainland HMU -sincerely Stud Muffin)

One of our family members has a SIGNIFICANT fear of heights. While we have bought them a ticket, what happens if they change their mind once we get there? Is there someplace for them to wait while the rest of our party goes ziplining?
Written 24 March 2022
They do have picnic tables at the gear spot. Once you head to the course, a car is the only way back to the gear space. The first zipline is very simple to help those with fears. If they can adjust to this sensation, they should be able to get through it. There is the option to go tandem. This also helps them with fears.
