    Such a fun tour I brought my 6 year old and 8 year old sons and they were in Awww and loving the tour! Chris was out guide and did a phenomenal job! He kept us learning and made the time go by with all the stories. I wasn’t sure if my sons were listening to the stories but we all had favorite stories that we walked away with. The sights we visited are hard to describe with words and photos don’t do them justice. Highly recommend this tour!

    This is a must-do for any big island visit. Although you could, with a four-wheel-drive, get to the summit yourself, going with a group of folks who know what they are doing regarding transportation and stargazing is unparalleled and well worth the cost. Val, our guide, had several tips on other things to do on the island, some of which we had already done, and we agreed they were awesome, so her suggestions were legit. Everyone in the crew was attentive and informative. All in all, it is well worth the money and time.

    The Snorkeling boat tour to Kailakekua bay exceeded our expectations!
    We had never seen so many colourful, diverse fishes, and so well preserved corals and magic sea life. We felt like swimming in an immense aquarium. It was pure happiness!
    We had to repeat this experience after a few days to impress it even more in our eyes and souls.

    The staff was super friendly and helpful. The food was delicious and plentiful. The entertainment was great! There was lots of dancing and sing-a-longs. The views were spectacular. We saw the most amazing rainbow!

    It was a blast! We saw several manta rays. They swam right up to us. The crew was friendly, laid back but also knowledgable..

    This tour was great. Hannibal our tour leader was great and funny. The volcano caldron has some smoke/steam but no lava. The weather cleared a bit when we were at the top. The underground lava tunnel was pretty cool. Rainbow Falls was pretty but not what I expected. Bring a light jacket or rain poncho.

    The tour was absolutely amazing (Mother Nature gets a lot of the credit) and Tylor and Nicole were the most informative tour guides. My wife and I enjoy taking in the sites via e-bike tours in our travels and this was by far the best one yet.

    Professional production throughout. Very good - clean grounds, hot tasty food. Well-organized - seating, buffet management. Dancers were lively, well-rehearsed, and lively. No cheesiness, not tacky. Live band and MC were very polished. Good seats everywhere; light and sound production was clear, balanced, not blaring. The weather was clear for us. Next time: play first since they ended that before the show. Meanwhile, there is enough food through the night. Mai tais were not very good, but strong and free. Beer, wine and well drinks were free! Staff was efficient and friendly. Expensive but worthwhile.

    The ziplines were fantastic. Some other companies focus on short ziplines with lots of walking through fields and forests. This had some nature style walking but mostly thrilling ziplines across valleys and even a waterfall. The staff was friendly and kept a light mood along with educating us on how to use the ziplines and the best way to have great rides for each line.

    Absolutely phenomenal experience. I’ve never snorkelled before and was afraid to jump in the water, but the sea was so calm and our tour operator very friendly and encouraging, and I felt safe. Saw so many fish too, and the monument. Unfortunately I can’t remember the tour operators name but he had shoulder length hair tied back. Wonderful experience and I’d recommend it to anyone!!!
