Andrew Rocks! Best experience!
Andrew was exceptionally friendly, knowledgeable, a fantastic guide/storyteller, and made us all feel safe. He is great at what he does! Seeing all the scenic parts while hearing about hawaiian history, the caves, the stars! Everything was so worth seeing. Doesn't even feel like hours had passed. Plus the hot chocolate at the end 👌 🍫.

Best Tour Guide on the Big Island hands down
Man I can’t say enough good things about Big Mike and his tour. Soo professional. He took the time to show us a slide show during our tour, he explained each and every stop, gave us history of the big island. He got off with us and walked with the group at each stop and gave us some insight on each stop and history of each stop, its significance to the island. Our Lunch stop was great. Food was awesome. His van is nice and comfortable, very clean and tidy. He’s super polite and very engaging with his guests and makes you feel like Ohana. Please do not hesitate to book this tour if you are on the big island. A+++++ Thank you Big Mike we had a blast. Mahalo Joe and Amanda from Houston Texas

A great way to see the volcanoes and some Hawaiian history
Loved this tour and it’s no surprise Big Mike is booked out! It was very convenient as Big Mike picks you up and drops you back and the cruise ship. We enjoyed visiting the volcanoes and all the other places we stopped. Big Mike is a local and his knowledge and stories was terrific. He has really thought through his tour experience and will ensure you enjoy your day. Thank you Big (King!!) Mike, we loved our day!

Great Experience
Fun experience! Kenny was fantastic! Communications prior to the trip was great, with pick up time and location. We got to visit the sites in and around Hilo - waterfalls and caves. Then we drove up Saddle Road, had dinner and saw the stars. It was an experience, great clear night. Had a lot of fun! Plenty of snacks along the way. Would highly recommend!

Worth it just for the history lesson
Dan was a great guide. He gave us all the history and interesting info about the stuff we saw and we had a great conversation the whole trip. He allowed us to wander off and come back, took photos for us, provided flashlights for the lava tube, and we even got to share some local produce.This tour was well worth the price we paid. They had the whole thing planned out perfectly and we even learned a bunch of things about the areas we visited.Dan gave us plenty of time to wander at each stop and got us back on the road to the next stop like clockwork. We happened to book a day with perfect weather and since it was a non-cruise day, our group was very small and personal. Everyone was friendly, the car was clean and comfortable (AC worked well!) and we genuinely had a great time.

Took the waterfalls and volcano tour. Absolutely wonderful. A small family owned and operated business, with tons of local knowledge and advice on things to do. After a day with them I didn't feel like a customer, I felt like family. Highly recommend for anybody wanting to see the beauty of Hawaii and learn cool history.

Great Day
I took the Hilo Finest Waterfalls and Town tour with Hannah Kealoha Adventures while our ship, the Celebrity Solstice was in Hilo for the day, and I enjoyed it very much. It turned out I was the only one on the tour, so it was very personalized. We saw most of the places on the itinerary, and it was especially nice, since I was alone, that the places were completely uncrowded. The Farmers Market is very small during the week, and we did not go to the candy store. I needed some things that I did not want to buy on the ship, so the guides were flexible enough to take me to the local Target, where I was able to pick those things up. It was a very pleasant day and a low-key excursion. It was like touring the area with friends.
