Rainbow Falls State Park
It can vacillate between a single thin stream of water and a raging cascade. When the flow is just right, the falls resemble an 80 foot white shower falling over a rock shelf into a placid blue-green pool. From the lookout the surrounding vegetation is a dense jungle. A path to the left of the lookout provides a view from the top of Rainbow Falls. Since this is such a popular tourist spot, it unfortunately is also a thief’s favorite hangout. Do not leave any valuables in your car and be sure to lock it. Restrooms are provided.
Take Waianuenue Ave. from downtown Hilo mauka for approximately two miles. Rainbow Drive branches off to the right just after crossing a bridge. Follow the signs to the parking lot. The park opens at sunrise. and closes at dusk.

The falls is free to visit and you can definitely head up from downtown Hilo to see it on your own. Be sure to also head up the road to see Pe’epe’e Falls as well.
Our cruise ship offers a tour of Rainbow Falls in Hawaii. We would prefer to visit it on our own so we are not slaved to a big group. Can we do a tour of the Rainbow Falls on our own? If so, is there a cost for us to do this? There will be 18 of us.
