Fissure 8 Tour - Volcanoes National Park and Hilo Discovery
Overview
The Fissure 8 Tour is an unforgettable, guided journey to the site of the 2018 Kīlauea eruption, where Fissure 8 – the most powerful fissure – forever changed the landscape of Lower Puna. Your all inclusive tour includes the Hilo Discovery and Volcanoes National Park Explorer packages.
