Make the most of your shore visit with our half-day adventure tour exploring the Big Island from summit to sea. We'll take you on a memorable journey through Hawaii Volcanoes National Park, home to the world's most active volcano, Kilauea. You'll travel from the visitor center to Kilauea crater for panoramic views of the smoking caldera and steaming volcanic vents, walk inside iconic Nahuku (Thurston Lava Tube), and enjoy lunch at the historic Kilauea Lodge & Restaurant. Afterward, visit Punaluʻu black sand beach and discover the picture-perfect scenery of Rainbow Falls in Hilo. Please note: This tour is not wheelchair accessible and includes moderate walking, including climbing roughly 15 stairs during the lava tube tour.

A Day in Hilo

Published on Jan, 2025

This guided tour in a twelve person van was very informational. We were picked up and dropped off right at the cruise port. There were two knowledgeable guides, one driving and the other narrating. They shared a wealth of information about the areas we drove through with interesting facts about the history, culture and landscape. The narration was supplemented with pictures to view and artifacts that were passed around. An appropriate amount of time was spent at the different stops which included beautiful Rainbow Falls, a black sand beach and the amazing Volcano National Park. We saw turtles at the black sand beach. The tour also drove through Lili'uokalani Gardens. This tour included a relaxing lunch stop. We learned a lot and enjoyed this comfortable cruise.

Hilo adventure!
