Big Island Grand Tour: Volcanoes, Waterfalls & History

This is an excellent way to experience the big island in one day. There is much more to see. My wife and I enjoyed the various sites. It was a long day, 11 hours / 300 miled, but understandable in scope of what we we able to experience and well worth the time spent. Our tour guide was very engaged with the clients and asked/ answered questions to great degree while exposing the diverse culture and geology of Hawaiii.

We did the Big Island Grand Circle Island Tour with Wasabi tours and had a wonderful time! Our tour guide, Derek S., was so incredibly knowledgeable, friendly, funny and kind! We were so impressed by his knowledge of the island, the Hawaiian culture and language, and so many interesting points of interest that we hadn’t heard of or read about before. We saw so many turtles on the black sand beach. The volcano’s national park was gorgeous! Derek showed us the unique phenomenon of Pele’s hair that occurs during an eruption. The stops at the falls were so beautiful too. We really felt that Derek planned the trip perfectly, maximizing our time to the fullest. We could not have planned this better on our own.

Had a wonderful time. Learned so much about the history of Hawaii. Kono Chris is the best tour guide ever. Great story teller and funny as heck. Couldn’t ask for a better experience!!!!

Derek our tour guide was very knowledgeable and entertaining. Wear comfortable shoes and bring some warm clothing to wear at the volcano site, as it is windy and cool.

This was a 300 mile, 11 hour tour of interest points around the island. Our guide, Justin I believe, was engaging with the party and very knowledgable about the cultural, biological, and geological aspects of the tour. I would highly recommend.

This was a fantastic way to see so much of the island and so many attractions! Kerry was a fabulous guide in every way!

We had a great time and we couldn’t have done all of this if we drove ourselves. It was entertaining and educational. We saw a coffee farm, sea turtles, black sand, waterfalls, and a volcanic crater. Our guide (Justin) was very knowledgeable and helpful.

We had a blast on the tour. Our tour guide was Aaron and he was a pleasure to have as a guide. He really knew so much about the history of Hawaii. As most reviews caution, the tour is long, but we knew what we were signing up for. I highly recommend the tour if you want to get a lot done in one day and enjoy the rest of your stay by relaxing, that was what we wanted out of it and the tour delivered.

Kerry was a. Excellent tour guide. Very knowledgeable and helpful. Always made sure we had plenty of time at the stops. The volcano was my favorite stop, but it was all beautiful. Prepare for a long day around the island.

Wonderful way to see the big island and experience all the beauty it offers. Enjoyed all the stops and information.
