Volcano national park tour - Don was an awesome tour guide. He was very knowledgeable about the plant and animal life on the island. The tour around the volcano was very educational. His personality kept the drive very entertaining! Definitely a once in a lifetime experience for our family!

Highly Rated Hilo Tour - My family and I were vacationing on the big island, but seeing as KÄ«lauea has been very a active lately, we decided to take a day trip to Hilo. Don communicated with us two days ahead of time to inform us of our pick up location. He met us right at the airport in a comfortable fifteen passenger bus. We went straight to Volcano National Park where we were treated to KÄ«lauea really showing out. We spent just the right amount of time at the overlook and Volcano House. After leaving VNP, we went through the rest of the planned itinerary, stopping for photos and snacks. Don narrated exuberantly for the duration of the trip. He was diligent in keeping check on the time, and we were back to the airport in plenty of time for our flight. There were several members of our group whom were cruising. They were back in plenty of time and certainly got more than their ship scheduled shore excursion mates. Highly recommend!

Amazing Excursion - The trip was amazing. We went to so many places. Rainbow Falls was our favorite. We booked this trip because of the cost and amount of time given at each stop. Would recommend this trip to anyone that is coming in on a cruise ship. We were met just off the cruise ship with a very short walk to our transportation. Our cost was 1/2 the price of anything we could have scheduled from the cruise ship.

Don is the man!!! - Don was fabulous. Very knowledgeable and knows the area very well. It is definitely the best bang for your buck you can find. The price was more than worth it. We visited 7-8 sites during our tour and never felt rushed and that it took too long.

Fun filled day - Don was very friendly and the communication was great. The day we went the volcano had started erupting so Don changed up our tour so we could make sure we didn't miss the eruption! We saw a lot and it was a very busy day but a lot of fun.

This was an awesome... - This was an awesome experience! Don was an awesome guide! He is very friendly, knowledgeable, and flexible! We were able to get started a bit early and saw the volcano erupt! Since it was erupting and it can stop at any time he got everyone directly to the volcano as soon as we were picked up so we got there in time to get great views! He was very well organized and other people had to stop early to get to other tours or the airport and get everyone to their destination safely and on time and didn’t interrupt the tour for everyone else. I highly suggest this tour as it was well worth it!!

You won’t regret it! - Don was so happy entertaining! He was full of information about plants, trees and properties. He took us off the beaten path. We saw things that we would have never seen on other tours. Loved the lava fields, lava tube and the volcano overlook. Seeing the rainbow falls was beautiful. It was a bit rainy but he provided umbrellas to those that did not have a poncho. We stopped for a quick bite and shopping. Going to the Mauna Loa Macadamia Nut farm was delicious and we ate soooo much nuts and chocolates. This tour did not disappoint!

Volcanos and Hilo tour - Don did an excellent job of taking us around the Hilo side of the big island. He had a lot of good information about the history of the island, the plant life, the volcanoes and the beaches! He made sure we were back in time for us to get back on our cruise ship! I would highly recommend him for future cruise guests.
