Important Policies

Cancellation Policy
Please notify us as soon as possible if changes need to be made with your reservation. For cancellations 48 hours before your scheduled tour you will receive a full refund or we will reschedule your visit. Under 48 hours all reservations are considered final and no refund will be given. Much preparation is required and expenses are incurred to accommodate each scheduled tour and due to limited space others have likely been turned away for your tour time. Our office is closed on Sundays but we can be reached via email at reservations@climbworks.com.

Weather Policy
Remember our zip line tours will operate rain or shine. All cancellations due to weather will be the decision of the CLIMB Works staff, and are generally caused by thunderstorms, heavy rains, or high winds. If this happens we will do our best to contact you before and reschedule or provide a voucher for another time. If you are unable to attend another time a full refund will be given.

Late Arrivals
We ask that all guests arrive 30 minutes before their scheduled tour time. Due to the nature of a reservation business, we cannot accommodate late arrivals and your tour will have to leave without you if you are not here on time. No refunds will be provided.

Zipline FAQ’s

How good of physical shape do I need to be in?
Ziplining is actually really easy and doesn’t require any special strength. Most people have no problems participating; we have 7 year olds to 90 year olds. We do recommend being able to stand for 2.5-3 hours, able to lift your knees to your waist, and able walk up a couple flights of stairs. See Requirements above for more information.

Do I have to make a reservation?
Yes. Reservations are very strongly encouraged. We will do our best to accommodate walk-ins but there is no guarantee there will be openings. During busy seasons it is recommended to make a reservation at least 5 days in advance to ensure you reserve your preferred time. We are closed on Sundays.

How do I make a reservation?

Do you have bathrooms at your facility?
Yes. There are bathrooms at our check-in area; however, there are no bathrooms on the tour.

Yes. We have small lockers to hold your keys and small items. Everything else must be left in the car. If you choose to take your phone and keys with you on the tour, items must be secured. We are not responsible for lost items.

Do you operate in the rain?
Yes. We operate rain or shine. Hawaii is known for quick bursts of rainfall on any given day, and it doesn’t slow us down a bit. We do not, however, operate during thunderstorms.

What happens if sever weather occurs on tour?
Although we cannot predict what the weather will do, our staff is trained to make decisions as to when to continue and when to reschedule. Each platform has a way to get each participant safely off of the tour and onto the ground where we can take you back to the main office. Depending on how far you made it through the course, we can reschedule or partially refund you.

These photos are viewable and available for purchase directly after the tour.

No. Our expert staff will be taking care of you from start to finish.
