Outstanding trip & guide!! - This was one of the best tours I've ever been on! Mel, our guide, is so knowledgeable and friendly, and the places we went were amazing! Mel tailored the trip to our group's interests and hiking ability - we were all hikers (aged 30-something to 80) so we got to do a 4 mile hike down & back to the volcano caldera. A real highlight was getting to go to the privately owned lava tube, which was part of why I chose this trip - a very unique opportunity!! We had time for a quick stop at an old growth forest - another rare opportunity, and an extra that Mel added! Everyone loved it!

Excellent - The guide was very knowledgeable and took us to examples of each phenomena. The private lava tube was amazing. The guide adjusted to our interests and her enthusiasm for volcanos and the big island made the trip more enjoyable

Fantastic Volcano Tour - Extremely informative. Tour picked us up from our resort in the Waikoloa are. During initial drive to the Volcano National Park area, our tour guide Mel(anie) gave us the history of the 5 volcanoes that make up the Big Island. We then toured a lava cave on a piece of private property owned by the tour company, with a detailed explanation of how lava tubes are made and the ecosystem they become. We then went to the national park, got to see steam vents, a view of the crater of Kilauea from the rim, and hiked down into it to see the floor of the crater.
During the entire trip, Mel provided nonstop fascinating information about the island. My daughters and I throughly enjoyed it!

Great Tour! - The whole tour is amazing, and Eugene is a great guide! The only think i would say is that would be better to offer 2 different kinds of tour, one with people that can do more long walks and hikes, and other one that is planned for people that cant walk so much. I think that way everybody will have a better experience!

Magical Experience - Loved the volcano tour! Magical experience in a private lava tune as well as in the Park! Many thanks to Mel for providing such great insight into the splendor of Hawaii and volcanos in general. A great introduction into an amazing world.
I appreciate how well this company operates. I wouldn't hesitate to utilize the many experiences when we return to this magical island.

Walked in 1000 year old lava tube. Mel was fantastic! - Very informative and fun tour. We visited a 1000 year old lava tube, which is privately owned by the company, so less footfall and completely untouched. Then went onto the national park and did a hike around the canyon rim. Mel was a fantastic driver and tour guide. She asked us all what our goals were and what we wanted to learn and ensured all our questions were answered and made us feel like part of her family. There was also plenty of snacks, drinks and food throughout the tour. Would highly recommended

Education, Wow, and Exploration All in One! - I live here and decided to do this tour with my mom. I learned so much and spent more time in HVNP than I ever have before. I can’t wait to go back on my own now and explore with knowledge that is impossible to have unless you go with a skilled guide.
These guys also own a lava tube that they take you to. It’s on their private land. Crazy cool!!! I’m so geeked out by this.
John, the guide taught us so much about every aspect of the island. The food was good. Plenty of stops. Just the right pace for the long day it was.

Fantastic tour… private lava tube - This was a fantastic tour! Jon was a knowledgeable and fun guide to use. Their tour van is super comfortable. The extra bonus for this tour is that the company owns the lava tube you tour, so no one else is there and it’s in excellent condition.
The biggest caution I have is that the road into the lava tube is bumpy. The van handles it well, but be thoughtful if you have back issues.
Highly recommend this tour!
