While the price is a bit expensive, $25 per person, it you are into plants and flowers and love photographing these things, the price is worth it. We figured that we would be in here an hour and out but that didn't happen. The Garden is in a canyon that has a waterfall and stream run through it. You can go all the way down to the ocean. Everything is paved and they have a cart that will get people that can't make the climb a ride. There is a climb to get out but there are benches to rest at if you wish. There are plants that I have never seen before in this place. It is shaded in most areas so it was enjoyable. I shot 300 photos in the 3 hours or so that we were here.

This highly exceeding my expectations. It was just a massive jungle garden with every type of tropical plant, but it was extremely photogenic, quiet, refreshing, and relaxing. $25 entrance fee seemed a bit expensive but it was one of our favorite stops on the trip! Perfect for people who like seeing all different types of plants and walking through the jungle.

Our visit to the Hawaii Tropical Bioreserve and Garden was absolutely magical and beautiful! The gardens are breathtaking and so exciting to explore. I would definitely recommend allotting around 3 hours for a visit in order to take full advantage of the gardens and to take your time wandering. We also brought a picnic lunch along with us which I HIGHLY recommend doing. There are several benches and picnic tables located throughout the garden with views better than any restaurant you could find. Ask the attendant for recommendations for your party when purchasing tickets (probably best for parties of 4 or less). It was our favorite meal of the whole trip just because of how peaceful and beautiful our environment was! Definitely include HTBG in your itinerary.
