A Great Investment to Make the Most of our Time!
My husband and I booked the 3-hour tour. Justin was our guide. He was very knowledgeable and funny. He took us to see things we otherwise would have missed. It was amazing walking inside a lava tube, viewing the beautiful coast with its sea arches, checking out tree molds, and so much more.Justin even gave us great recommendations for some of the best restaurants we visited on the island!

Intimate island tour with a knowledgeable guide
Great small in a van with 8 total guest with a knowledgeable guide! Such a interesting Volcano National Park drive with a lava tube tour. Plus multiple other volcano sites. The large turtles at the black sand beach were adorable. Lilluokalano gardens were pretty, sign up for this tour it was unique.

Fantastic day spent in Hilo with Rebecca
Rebecca picked us up from Port of Hilo. Rebeccas communication prior to our tour was fantastic, she picked us up on time. We started the day at Hawaii Volcanoes National Park - home to Mauna Loa and Kilauea where the goddess Pele lives. After a quick coffee stop, we went to the Thurston Lava Tube, which is surrounded by stunning rainforest. The path takes you right through the tube, and out the other side, in a loop. We then headed to the district of Ku'a, which was severely affected by hurricane Lala last month, we had lunch at a lovely restaurant. Our tour guide Rebecca was keeping an eye on the live Kilauea feed, while we had lunch, as Kilauea was building up for an imminent eruption and the smoke was showing signs of an orange glow! So back to Kilauea we headed. We waited and watched for nearly an hour - the smoke was getting thicker and was coming from lots more vents, we could have stayed there for hours just watching but we had to leave to get back to the ship. Rebecca was very professional and knowledgeable, we had a fantastic day, thoroughly enjoyed ourselves, and felt like we were touring with a friend, that is how relaxed we felt. Thank you Rebecca for making our day wonderful.

The most knowledgeable tour guide ever! We've done lots of tours but Sam is by far the most knowledgeable guide we've ever experienced. He gave us so much interesting information on geology, astronomy and even physics. The Hawaiian Tourist Board should employ him in a very high managerial position! Thank you very much Sam.

Best tour for a family who needs flexibility!
Rebecca was amazing! Kind, flexible, and accommodating to any group or limitations you have! She called within minutes of me booking just to go over every detail and reassure me of the itinerary and that she was able to pick me up from our hotel even though the website said it was out of policy. She accommodated a family or two elderly grandparents and a 2 yr old toddler. We were changing our pickup time and whether we wanted to do a day or night tour all the way up until the night before and she was so accomodating and doing research to give us minute by minute suggestions. I will totally book with her again the next time I come back!

Alex is great!
Alex was fantastic. He is native to the islands and was extremely knowledgeable. He shared a lot of gems from his native culture to help you understand the islands and the volcanos. He is friendly, funny, engaging and draws you in. He blew a conch shell to draw us back to himself and was always clear in his directions. I would highly recommend any tour where he is the guide.

Cold resistance on a tropical island, and a starry night tour
My first trip to the Big Island of Hawaii included two days of golf, one day touring the island around Kona, and one day dedicated to a sunset tour of Mauna Kea. 4,200m, higher than the summit of Mt. Fuji. Without any signs of altitude sickness, which I was a little worried about, I was mesmerized by the sight of the stars from the highest point of my life, forgetting the cold.

Feeling good as a first priority
Finally we went a little bit different way as the weather condition was bumpy in one part of the flight and I didn't feel so brave after my previous day sea sickness. Still brilliant flight above active volcano and coast. Very enjoying - and smooth. Thanks to Lance our pilot
