The Umauma Falls Private Waterfall & River Swim + Mauna Kea Summit & Stars Adventure package delivers the ultimate Big Island contrast—tranquil river swims by day and dazzling celestial views by night.
Your day begins on the lush Hamakua Coast with the Umauma Falls Private Waterfall & River Swim, a serene experience that grants exclusive access to one of Hawaii’s most breathtaking natural settings. Glide along the Umauma River by kayak or stand-up paddleboard, float in calm, crystal-clear water beneath a triple-tiered waterfall, or simply relax on the riverbank surrounded by tropical greenery. Choose from a one-hour Quick Dip or a longer, lunch-included package that adds more time to paddle, swim, and enjoy a riverside picnic under shaded pavilions. This private outing is perfect for couples, families, and small groups seeking peaceful beauty far from the crowds.
After you’ve soaked in Hawaii’s lush lowlands, ascend to its loftiest heights with the Mauna Kea Summit & Stars Adventure by Hawaii Forest & Trail. Beginning in Kona, your guide leads a scenic drive past lava flows and ranchlands on the way to the 13,796-foot summit—the highest point in the Pacific. Enjoy a hearty picnic dinner before climbing above the clouds for a panoramic sunset that stretches from Mauna Loa to Haleakala on Maui. As darkness falls, descend to 9,000 feet for telescope stargazing. Warm parkas, hot drinks, and expert narration make this an experience both scientific and spiritual.
Together, these adventures showcase Hawaii’s incredible diversity—from rainforest rivers to otherworldly mountaintops.
