All Hilo Tours & Excursions in 2026 - page 2

We were picked up in a clean new vehicle by a great guy, Justin. The experiences were amazing, beautiful, colorful beaches and waterfalls and we saw lava flow and steam vents at the volcano! Because of the hurricane road closures, we couldn’t see the lava tube, but he took us to a macadamia nut factory and a cookie factory that had a garden with all sorts of cool local plants. And they had samples and delicious ice cream.

From the time we were picked up at 8:30am from Hilo airport our tour guide of Lehua Tours, Big Mike, gave us a summary of what we would be seeing and doing for the day, which was helpful. Every place we went to was breath taking, the waterfalls, the volcano tube, the active volcano was amazing. This tour was worth the money, the tour guide was just phenominal (big Mike of Lehua Tours). If you go to the Big Island, we would recommend Lehua Tours by Big Mike you will not regret it. Big Mike knew so much about the Island, he grew up there, we enjoyed learning about the history, the plants, the flowers and all the right spots to give us good views. He was most respectful, fun, on time and professional. The tour package included lunch which he picked a really good spot for us to have lunch where we could directly see the active volcano and saw the lava. He picked us up from Hilo airport and dropped us back at the airport when we finished. Everything that he did on this tour had a personal touch. He took pure joy in sharing with us this beautiful Island. We can not say enough about this experience. Big Mike of Lehua Tours was just that good.

This was a fantastic excursion! There is truly nothing else like it, and it was such a great way to experience the beauty and highlights of Hilo. If you’re coming to Hilo, I highly recommend adding this excursion to your plans. And if you have the opportunity to request Aaron as your tour guide, do it! He was absolutely top-tier—knowledgeable, engaging, personable, and truly one of the best to do it. I would recommend Aaron any day of the week. He helped make an already amazing excursion an unforgettable experience. 10/10—highly recommend!
