Interesting and Fun - What a great tour. We learned so much from our tour operator. She answered questions and gave insights about the Big Island that we never knew. This tour should not be missed.

Great tour of Hilo and Volcano National Park- A must do! - Such an amazing and personalized tour! We really learned so much about this history of the island, all about volcano national park and hearing local stories and legends was incredible. Could not recommend this tour more- it really gives you a taste of Hilo in such a unique way. Our tour guide was FANTASTIC and we were so sad to leave!

New Life on the Road - My experience was happily memorable. My tour guide breathed life into the trip with a vintage Aloha spirit that gave the group a feeling of positivity, love and togetherness. I enjoyed the story telling along the trip to bring all the experiences I was having full circle and make it just that much more memorable. This trip was certainly the highlight of my vacation.
