Overview

This truly unique experience will be with you for the rest of your life as you enjoy the spectacular beauty exploring Hawaii Volcanoes National Park. The sights, sounds and smell are like nowhere else on earth as you walk on actual lava (cooled, of course), descend through a rain forest and experience steam vents up close and personal.

Meeting at the visitor center at Volcanoes National Park, we'll begin experiencing the amazing sights and sounds on top of the world's most active volcano.

This truly will be an experience you will never forget! You can even choose a starting time at 5 AM to catch the sunrise over Kilauea. Another advantage to starting so early is having the park almost to ourselves!

We drive around in a 2025 F150 Tremor.

Let's share the beauty of Hawaii Volcanoes National Park!
