Worthwhile hike.
Dave was our guide. It was a rainy day but he made the best of it. He is very knowledgeable. We only had 4 people on our tour. We were unable to swim due to the intensity of the falls but the overall experience was great fun.

The day passed very quickly. The stops were well spaced out. The volcano was probably my favorite. Even though we couldn't see much due to the mist. The lava tube this was a favorite part. The drive was very enjoyable. It was so awesome to see how different the island is depending on the region you are in. Tour guide was very knowledgeable, provided. Great information and answered all our questions.

Be prepared for a long day, but it's totally worth it! You get to see a great snapshot of the island. Kawika, our tour guide, was fantastic and shared a huge amount of history and fun facts throughout the day. The stops were well placed and the volcano is a must see. If you have the chance, definitely take this tour!

Perfect experience!
We took an 8 hour private tour for 5 people to celebrate my friend’s birthday. We were lucky enough to have two guides. Derek and Chris. They were both very knowledgeable about the volcanoes, coffee farm, turtles, lava tubes and Hilo. They were very cognizant of our comfort and areas of interest. We thoroughly enjoyed our trip. Derek even surprised my friend with a cake. A perfect day!!!!

Worth Doing!
We thought the weather would affect our trip but it was perfect. We were above the clouds and the clouds just parted. The sunset on Mauna Kea was beautiful and stargazing was great even with a bit of a bright moon. James, our guide with Hawaiian Eyes tours arranged through Cool Hawaii, was top notch and fun to be with. He was extremely attentive to safety and knowledgeable about the stars and landscape. We are very grateful To our relatives who recommended this to us.

Big Island GOAT Experience: Mauna Kea Summit, Sunset & Stars
Ken_S, Sep 2026
A great tour, but more difficult than expected.
We are seniors in our seventies. When we read the itinerary we knew it was a long day, but the activities were very attractive and it was something we felt we could do. What we didn’t realize was the amount of time needled to acclimate to the altitude, the extent of the warnings regarding altitude sickness and the height of the vehicle from the ground to the first step. Our tour guide did a good job of explaining the need for establishing good practices in order to avoid altitude issues. She was very conscientious about ensuring everyone on the truck was safe and well educated. We didn’t anticipate the difficulties that we would encounter entering and leaving the truck. That was compounded by the number of stops and experiences that required getting on and off. While everything we experienced was wonderful and as described, it was also exhausting and personally difficult. We have nothing but good things to say regarding our guide and drivers. They were professional and caring and dedicated to making this experience positive for everyone. A stronger warning and difficulty rating might have convinced us to reconsider this tour at our age.

Thrilling swimming with manta rays
The excursion was thrilling! I was a little apprehensive beforehand, but the description on their website is spot on, and the guides made us comfortable. It is something anyone can and should experience! They provided great info on manta rays. The snorkel was incredible. We saw four large manta rays that swam right under our bellies! The boat ride during sunset was also beautiful.

Very Excellent Adventure Tour
What an excellent tour! Our guide, Garry, was so knowledgeable and interesting. So fun to explore with him. The tour picked us up at our rental house in a nice Sprinter van. We got to go onto private land which is pretty much uninhabited. They provided walking sticks, rain jackets, towels, day packs, snacks - everything was in great condition and excellent quality (ie. Patagonia jackets). It was so interesting to learn about the land and peoples who populated it originally. The hike was exactly as described - mild walking about 1-2 miles. Unfortunately, we were there the day before Hurricane Lala hit the island and the waterfalls were enormous so no swimming for us. Garry was amazed because he had been there 2 days prior and the size of the waterfalls was at least half to 3/4 of what we saw. We were disappointed to miss the swimming in the waterfalls but....that's nature for you. We had an excellent lunch afterwards. This tour is pricey but well worth it. I would definitely use Hawaii Forest & Trail again for other adventures.

Volcanos National Park e-bike tour
Jade led our e-bike tour through Hawaii Volcanoes National Park and absolutely made the experience. She was incredibly knowledgeable about the volcanic landscape, the geology, the history, and the unique plants and wildlife we encountered—and she shared it all with such genuine warmth and enthusiasm. The e-bikes made the terrain accessible and fun, and Jade's attentiveness to our group meant we felt safe and supported the entire time. What really stood out was how much she clearly cares about sharing the magic of the park with visitors. We had such a wonderful time pedaling through lava fields and native forests with her guidance. If you're visiting the Big Island, this tour with Jade is an absolute must-do. Five stars, no question.
