Overview

Customizable private small group tour that includes Hawaii Volcanoes National Park. This tour of the southern end of the Big Island of Hawaii allows you to visit some of the most breathtaking locations the state has to offer while allowing the clients to customize their tour day. You and up to 7 of your guests will enjoy a beautiful private drive in our custom tour van for one price. Hawaii Volcanoes National Park is the highlight of this tour, where you'll enjoy views of the Halema'uma'u Crater, Steam Vents, Lava Tube, and much more. The bright orange glow of the lava isn't always visible, but when it is we'll do our best to get you in to see it. This tour can also be scheduled to include nighttime viewing of the lava, when active. Other potential stops for this tour are, Punalu'u Black Sand Beach, Punalu'u Bakery, Southpoint complex, Coffee farms, Mac Nut farms, and more. Do you have someplace specific in mind, just let us know and we'll do our best to fit it in.

On some pages, you can select how to sort the results we display and also use filter options to see only those search results that meet your chosen preferences. You'll see explanations of what those sort options mean when you select them.

If you see a Badge of Excellence label, the award is based on average review ratings, share of bookings with a review, and number of bookings through Cool Hawaii over a 12-month period.

The importance of any one factor over any other in a sort order varies, and the balance is constantly being reviewed and adjusted. We're always updating our systems and testing new ways to refine and improve your results to make them as relevant as possible to meet your needs.
