Hawaii Volcanoes NP: Private Kilauea Eruption Insights Tour

Aaron is an excellent guide for the Volcano National Park
Our guide was Aaron… he was one of the best guides that we’ve ever had! Not only did we take us to the major sites (Kilauea, the Lava Tube and the most recent Lava fields), he took us to a local market, where we bought the best sandwiches… then took us to one of the most memorable spots - with the most memorable views (overlooking lava fields and down the Pacific Coast of the Island) at which to have lunch. It was an incredible vantage point that we will remember forever.We saw the Kilauea caldera, the Volcano House and the Nakuru lava tunnel, PLUS a few other calderas and other spots that larger tour groups will likely never see… where we saw lava fissures, caldera sink holes that don’t make the itineraries of larger tour groups, but have, nonetheless, attracted Stanford geologists!If you want a small group, or private-guide experience, then find Aaron! He is absolutely the best!

Great tour, knowledgeable and friendly tour guide
This was our first visit to the big island of Hawaii and checking out Volcano National Park was high on our list of things to visit. We booked a private tour because my wife has some limitations as to how far and fast she can walk. We were picked up and dropped off right at our hotel in a new Mercedes van. Alex was our tour guide/driver and he was excellent. He was knowledgeable and shared lots of interesting information about Hawaii and volcanoes on our two hour drive from our hotel to the park. He was very conscientious and provided water, soda snacks and lunch, as well as, bathroom breaks whenever we needed one. He knew exactly where to go and park so our time at the park was very efficient. He provided flashlights and escorted us through the lava tube. It was an amazing experience.

Best snorkeling experience!
I had a great experience New Year’s day with Colin. It was my family of 5 and it felt very personal and fun. We saw dolphins, whales, and lots of fish. The snorkeling spot was awesome, and the food and drink provided was wonderful. They also have prescription goggles with was nice and the whole trip was very accommodating. Colin told us all about history on the island and went above and beyond with the history and sight seeing.

An amazing wonderful complete informative fun fact filled and beyond friendly tour
First of all the guide was beyond great. He was incredibly knowledgeable about everything. His knowledge and experience raised the tour to a level we’ve never experienced before. The itinerary was beyond complete. It covered everything listed and more. If fact we canceled another tour scheduled for later since it would have been redundant. The people we met a the various stops were very friendly outgoing and obviously proud of what they do. I could go on forever trying to describe our experience. I believe our guide was Jim.
