Our guide was exceptionally knowledgeable, professional, and personable, and his passion for Hawaii and its history was evident throughout the tour.
We enjoyed the tour with Hawai’i GEO tours. Our guide was exceptionally knowledgeable, professional, and personable, and his passion for Hawaii and its history was evident throughout the tour. He provided a wealth of insightful information while keeping the experience engaging and enjoyable. Although the excursion lasted approximately 11 hours from pickup to drop-off, the itinerary was seamless, well-coordinated, and thoughtfully organized from start to finish.

As a geologist, his incredible knowledge about the island, natural phenomena and history was like having a documentary rolled into our vacation day.
Eric lead a private tour for family of four in his luxurious and spacious van and gave us one of the most memorable experiences of our travels! As a geologist, his incredible knowledge about the island, natural phenomena and history was like having a documentary rolled into our vacation day. We ate that up, asking him lots of questions and testing his knowledge. He passed with flying colors! When my daughter was confused about the difference between the Caldera and the additional craters, he explained it in multiple different ways until she understood it. Within one action-packed day, we covered almost everything listed on their website as typical top destinations, in addition, we did the hike down to the crater (must see!!!) and Thurston lava tube. He also arranged lunch with a caldera-side view. He was super flexible with our interests and change of plans, very thoughtful and funny, and an excellent driver, including on narrow roads, zero light, and sheets of rain. His van was even stocked with raincoats, if it wasn’t for this, we would not have been able to hike down to the crater. The tours are pricey, but it’s absolutely the best in terms of high-quality education and top notch service. We’ve been sampling private tours around the world over the years, highly recommend.

The sites are beautiful and we got to see a few places that we probably never would have gotten to see had we not gone on this tour.
We had such a great time! Dave was our tour guide, and he was very entertaining and a wealth of knowledge. The sites are beautiful and we got to see a few places that we probably never would have gotten to see had we not gone on this tour. We went to a coffee farm, the Volcanoes National Park, the lava tubes, Rainbow Falls, and lots more. It was a long day, but worth every second. Very highly recommend going on the Volcano National Park Adventure!

My boyfriend and I have been in Hawaii for over two weeks and done many tours here, but this by far was our favorite one.
DEAR READER- STOP RIGHT NOW! IF YOU ARE ON THE BIG ISLAND- YOU NEED TO TAKE THIS TOUR!!!!! BOOK IT. David was an INCREDIBLE tour guide. My boyfriend and I have been in Hawaii for over two weeks and done many tours here, but this by far was our favorite one. We learned so much. David was so incredibly kind and informative. You could tell he genuinely cares about the volcanos, the island, the people and animals who live here, and the guests on the tour. He took the time to get to know everybody and he was SO GOOD with names and remembering people. He knew amazing details and stories about the island and the volcano and the coffee farm. My boyfriend is absolutely fascinated with volcanos and said it was his “once in a lifetime tour.” It was the perfect amount of guests too. Not too crowded. Amazing stops, each one was worthwhile. And- a very comfortable and clean van. DID YOU BOOK??? DO IT!

If you're staying in Kona and want a world-class experience, book David. He truly made our vacation unforgettable!
Our family (including two teenagers, ages 17 and 12) had an absolutely incredible day exploring Volcanoes National Park with David. If you are looking for a guide who combines deep scientific knowledge with a genuine passion for the island, David is the gold standard. His background in geology and botany turned the landscape into a living storybook. He didn't just show us the sights; he explained the 'why' and 'how' behind the volcanic formations in a way that kept both of our boys totally engaged. Beyond his superior expertise, David is just a fun-loving person to be around. He shared wonderful stories that gave us a real feel for the culture and history of Hawaii, and he went above and beyond to tailor the day so we could truly appreciate the most dramatic views. He made what could have been a long day of driving feel like an effortless, awesome adventure. If you're staying in Kona and want a world-class experience, book David. He truly made our vacation unforgettable!

Great knowledge of the area and everything about the volcano.
Went on a day tour to volcano with Grant. He had great knowledge of the area and everything about the volcano. It was definitely a 5 star service! One of the best tour I’ve had. Totally worth it.

Felt like we saw the best of the island by the time we were finished.
This tour was awesome and the highlight of visit on the Island of Hawaii. Erik gave insights to the island’s geology as we went along the tour, which was very interesting. He also took us to some hidden gems off the typical tour route to see some really beautiful parts of the park. We started the day at a coffee plantation, then a black sand beach, volcano National park, lava tube and the finished the day rainbow falls. Felt like we saw the best of the island by the time we were finished. The hot lunch, snacks, and multiple drink options were a nice touch. Definitely recommend Hawaii Geo Tours.
