Todd was extremely knowledgeable and answered a myriad of questions with ease. He was courteous and helpful. I’m so glad he was our tour operator.

An Absolute must and the highlight of our whole trip

Published on Jan, 2025

This tour is an absolute must! It is our first time in Hawaii and we wanted to experience as much as we could in our short time here, while highlighting the volcanoes. Scott was an incredible guide who was born and raised on the big island and it showed. He was incredibly knowledgeable about literally everything and provided awesome tips for places people could visit on their trip. He was friendly and kept everyone entertained with hilarious stories. He made sure to cater the tour to everything that the group was looking for including going back to the volcanoes at night for us to get a second look after it stopped erupting. He had all the best tips for stargazing so everyone got incredible views and unbelievable pictures. Ultimately it is no doubt the highlight of our trip and we would recommend this tour for anyone and everyone trying to see the big island in one day. The meals were good and there was no shortage of water and drinks. When it got a bit chilly, having the extra jackets provided by Scott was a savior for some of the guests on our tour. An outstanding experience and the best way to see the beauty of Hawaii! Thank you Scott!

Loved the experience with Scott!! He was incredibly knowledgeable, great tips and made sure to take the time to check in with each person to make sure they are having a good time and learning something about the island. We got see the glow and beautiful stars! Would gladly book another tour with Scott!

Saw everything expected and more!

The tour was totally amazing!!! Our guide, Todd was courteous as well as very knowledgeable in so many different aspects. I highly recommend this tour over the ten tours we took here which includes the ones we took on our cruise. Except maybe Pearl Harbor. We are both 75 and visiting Hawaii for the first time. Thanks for a wonderful time, Todd!

Just WOW. From the morning pickup to the dark of night Stargazing, this excursion was both exciting and educational. I would give Todd, our tour operator, and Wasabi Tours more than 5 stars if this site would allow it. He provided impressive transportation, location stops, excellent food, surprises and most of all passion. We were blessed to be amongst complete strangers, coming together as friends sharing opinions and backgrounds, experiences and laughs. As I write this a few days later, I wish Todd was our friend and neighbor. My wife and I have been fortunate to travel a lot. As a visitor, I want my time and money spent to equal the enjoyment of a travel tour. This experience ranks in the Top 2 of the HUNDREDS of tours we have taken over the years on five continents that we have visited. To steal a phrase from baseball, Todd “knocked it outta the park”. My expectations were to see Volcanoes and Stars, be impressed by their power and beauty. I definitely was, but it was Todd’s personality, knowledge and passions that made this inspiring. I could go on for hours talking and typing, but all I can add is this; visit the Island of Hawai’i, but build your visit around this experience. You will be inspired too.
