Thumbs up! - Lava tube was fascinating, as well as the rainforest, caldera and waterfall. Scott was an informed, friendly tour guide.

Great way to see the island without renting a car - This tour was perfect for us. We didn't want to rent a car, but wanted to see as much of the island as we could. Scott with the Volcano Van picked us up at 9 am at our hotel (the Royal Kona Resort), and we drove all the way around the island with multiple stops: Honoka'a for a yummy Malasada, Laupāhoehoe Point (gorgeous), 'Akaka Falls, Kīlauea volcano (on my bucket list), Nāhuku Lava Tube, and Punalu'u Black Sand Beach Park (with sea turtles). Scott contacted us the night before and provided our choice of sandwiches for lunch, along with a bottle of water. He is very knowledgeable about the island and the volcanoes, we highly recommend this tour for teens and up.

Touring with Scott (the BIG Island Tour) - So Scott was completely amazing! He was extremely knowledgeable, funny, and took great care of us. He was on time with the pick-up and we got to see everything from the waterfalls, to walking around through/to the active volcano, to walking through a Lava Cave, to stopping at a little hidden gem for sweets. Lunch was also provided which was tasteless and filling. My husband and I were extremely please with this tour and felt extremely ecstatic about this tour. We’d don’t all over again!
