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!

Best Island Tour!
A must tour experience! Such an incredible day. What is unique about This tour, is how much you learn about the island formation and the flexibility in where he takes you! We traveled with friends and booked the VIP tour…if you can swing it, definitely put Geotours on your itinerary! Erik will not disappoint. You can see that he is passionate about the island and what he does. Mingled well with our group, lots of laughs, great energy and had a BLAST!!!

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.

We highly recommend this tour to anyone wanting a truly memorable and well-rounded Hawaii experience!
We had a fantastic time on our Hawaii Geo Tour with Eric — even with the rain and crazy fog! Eric kept the experience fun, engaging, and full of incredible information. We also loved so many of his recommendations for places to visit and places to eat; they really helped us make the most of our trip. If you’re worried it’s going to be a “boring rock tour” or involve too much walking, don’t be! The tour is well-paced, exciting, and gives you the chance to see a huge portion of what the island has to offer without feeling overwhelmed. We highly recommend this tour to anyone wanting a truly memorable and well-rounded Hawaii experience! 🌺

Awesome adventure!
We couldn’t have made a better choice!!! Definitely the guides know their stuff, from history of the island and its people to the geological topics that kept me entertained throughout the trip. We just about went around the island in vip style, the guys were well known everywhere they took us as well as knew their way. Will recommend it to a few friends that are planning to visit the island, it’s a must in your itinerary and couldn’t have made a better choice in tour guide services

Bolt says Geo Tour Big Island
Dave was a great guide. Very informative tour. I really enjoyed the geological aspect and lots of information on how the islands were formed and keep growing. Many interesting stops along the way including a walk through a lava tube. Very cool! Great experience!

One of the best tours ever
What an excellent way to get to know the Big Island and learn about its unique place on Earth. Our tour guide Eric picked us up on time at our rented villa along with a number of other visitors and we proceeded to spend one of the better days on a tour of the island. Eric is one of the proprietors of the tour, is a degreed geologist and is truly an engaging and friendly person. The tour was excellent which combined both interesting sights and a tremendous amount of local knowledge about lava flows and local history. To say that this was worth the day spent would be to put it mildly. Even at twice the price, I would happily do this again and recommend the tour to anyone.

Geo adventure family trip for the win!
David has a vast knowledge of so much of the island it’s amazing and he charmed us with a ton a factoids the whole day. Highly recommend if you are short on time on the island but want to see as much as you can in little time.
