A long, fun day - The tour driver/guide, David, was friendly and knowledgeable. The tour is very long, about 11 hours, but covered much of the island. Volcano National Park is incredible.

Zane makes Hawaiian history and geo- science fun for everyone! - A truly amazing learning experience. Having the expertise of having a geologist as our tour guide was enhanced by his knowledge and passion about island life and eagerness to share its history and current activities to enjoy while visiting. The stops to see first hand the power of nature that continues to dramatically change the landscape were well organized and they were prepared with snacks and wet weather gear. Educational. Fun. Worth every penny.

An amazing day! - This geological tour of Hawaii was an absolute eye-opener! Zane expertly navigated us through diverse climates and from volcanic craters to beautiful, wave-crashing beaches. The explanations of the island's formation and ongoing geological processes were fascinating and easy to understand. The lava flows, volcanic vents, and geothermal activity were truly awe-inspiring. His passion for geology was contagious, making the entire experience even more enjoyable. I highly recommend this tour. It's a fantastic way to appreciate the island's unique geological history and its ongoing evolution!

Ultimate Volcano Tour - Being back on the Big Island single was an experience in itself, but hanging out with Zane and Erik for a full day was awesome. Zane was very professional before the tour even began. Making sure we had the right gear, the right meal plan and the right attitude (LOL) for the day. His knowledge of all things was frankly amazing and scary. From rocks and locations to weather and people. The van ride was very comfortable and the location for lunch and dinner was excellent. If you are going to take this tour, please dress accordingly and wear the right shoes. In the nicest way possible Zane was trying to keep people safe when walking in several beautiful areas where you needed to pay attention. What was the negative you ask? He was too polite to put the person hogging all of the conversation in the back! 😂 I would definitely recommend their tour to anyone. Although it was all couples, Zane and Erik didn’t make me feel bad for being the only single throwing off the number. I want to come back during a different season and see how the tour looks then.

Don't miss this one!! - What an amazing tour of Rainbow Falls and Volcano National Park! Led by a geogologist with the knowledge about history of the area. He was fun, entertaining, and I would absolutely recommend this as one of the best tours I've experienced.

If you're looking for a fun and learning tour, this is it! - Guides are specialists in topography and geography. They offer a lot of things that other tours don't teach us and experiences that are unique to us. They talk to everyone while driving. They prepared a lunch restaurant that was not affected by the weather. It is a mountain, so I was relieved because the weather is changeable. He was also a very attentive and lovely guide, giving us information about the city as well as rest and toilets. I definitely recommend it if you want to experience a real tour, not a commercial one.

Absolutely awesome day on the Big Island - The experience was absolutely wonderful. Zane as a guide was the best. As a geologist, Zane is able to bring the Island of Hawaii to life. And we were able to experience views and areas that no other tour company will do. I highly recommend Hawai’i Geo tours!!! Zane is the best. I will chose no other company the next time I visit Hawaii…

Absolutely FANTASTIC!! - We chose this tour primarily because an actual Geologist was taking us into Volcano National Park. We have been on DOZENS of excursions in MANY countries. Zane was the BEST guide we have ever had! His knowledge was way beyond geology and the volcano. He entertained and educated us all day about the local culture and customs, historical sites, plants, animals, etc. He even included several little surprises not mentioned in the guide. If the tour sounds like "your cup of tea", you WON'T be disappointed.
