This tour was top notch from beginning to end. The gal who led the tour was a walking encyclopedia about volcanos. She made things very interesting. We were late getting in, so she modified the day to make it the best day possible. I highly recommend it.

Ellen was a fantastic guide. She was prepared for any and all eventualities - water, flashlights for the lava tunnel, umbrellas, walking sticks. She was very knowledgeable, has a great sense of humor and gave us just the right amount of time at each stop.

Great tour of lava fields

The tour guide was very knowledgeable about volcanoes and those on Hawaii. His knowledge and locations we visited gave us a great feeling of what it was like while the volcanoes were active. We were taken to see all sides of the latest lava flows. This was a wonderful excursion, and we would highly recommend this excursion.

Great excursion! The tour guide was absolutely wonderful. He was thoughtful to the somewhat disabled folks on the tour. He knew his subject.
This was our best tour of the whole cruise.

This tour was wonderful. It was all about lava formations, waterfalls and a cave... we saw it all! Ellen (?) was extremely knowledgeable. We traveled a lot in a small comfortable van. She took us to a grocery store to buy what we wanted for lunch and then we went to a park to eat. It was appreciated. Very memorable tour!

From the moment we met our guide - she was welcoming, very knowledgeable and interesting. We learnt a lot about the island, history and all the locations.
My husband and I could not recommend her more highly

A personal journey

We were looking forward to learning about the impact of volcanic activity on the big island. We received so much more. Thomas, our guide, made the day. He shared his story and took us to places impacted by lava that directly impacted his life. We saw iconic Rainbow Falls, went into a lava tube, had lunch surrounded by a forest of lava encrusted trees, took roads rerouted by lava, walked on lava that filled his favorite surf beach and reestablised the sea shore, and visited a subdivision directly in the path of the lava.
The entire day we were immersed in the after effects of lava and a story told in the first person by Thomas.
It was a day very well spent.
