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!!!

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!

GEO TOURS was easy to work with, exceptionally attentive response time to communication all questions prior to our trip.
GEO TOURS was easy to work with, exceptionally attentive response time to communication all questions prior to our trip. The cost of ANY tour and ALL tours are high in Hawaii- but for what you receive on this trip I felt that they were priced correctly in their marketplace. We stopped at interesting locations along the way: All of the ones they indicated and nothing felt like a big sales pitch anywhere which was great. If you are traveling with children be aware this is a LONG all day tour. If you're a car-sick kinda person like me - come prepared! I hate being loopy, but that's what I sacrifice to be with our whole group. Take your Bonine people! Our tour guide for our party of nine was Dave. Great guy! Knowledge, kind, engaging and obviously done this sort of thing a lot. I was a bit bummed we didn't get one of the actual geologists (as we were traveling with my brother who IS a geologist and when booking with Erik I mistakening thought he would be our tour guide that day. I knew it wasn't a private tour, and now I kind of wish I would have booked a private tour. We were so fortunate that the family we traveled with had delightful children and easy to combine our group with. What I realize in hindsight, is that it would be worth paying the price for private and having a little more wiggle room for our personal group. We were four adults and five siblings; 20,17,15,11,9. Dave on his own as a travel guide and driver was helpful, efficient, a gracious island host and very easy to be around. He didn't make up anything and was not grandiose; as some guides tend to be know-it-all-junkies. THANKS Dave for your kindness to our whole family. Thank you GEO Tours. The family voted you as their favorite vacation activity.

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.
