Adam was fantastic! We booked this excursion for our group of 12 during our recent visit to Hilo, and it ended up being the highlight of our trip. Our group had been closely watching the activity on the live cameras for a potential eruption of Mt. Kilauea, and when we saw lava flowing, we headed straight for Hawai‘i Volcanoes National Park.
Thanks to Adam’s quick planning and expert guidance, we were lucky enough to witness Mt. Kilauea fountaining in person—an absolutely breathtaking sight. His dedication to making sure we didn’t miss this once-in-a-lifetime moment was truly appreciated.
Highly recommend this tour and Adam’s outstanding service!

Our tour guide Adam was excellent. He shared a lot of knowledge/history/facts along the tour, took group photos, adjusted the schedule as we wanted. Couldn't have had a better experience! That you Adam!
Adam was very knowledgeable. He was flexible and made sure we saw what we wanted. If we had to turn around to see something. He was very accommodating.
Adam was an exceptional tour guide, incredibly knowledgeable about the island and highly attentive to everyone’s needs. We could not have asked for a better experience! Fully exceeded our expectations!!

We had an amazing time on this tour. Adam was fantastic and made the trip very enjoyable. We learned a lot about Hilo and the Island of Hawaii. The stops were well spaced out and we had a lot of time to enjoy everything. I would highly recommend this tour!
We had a wonderful time on this tour! Some of the sights included Volcanoes National Park, Thurston Lava Tube, Black Sand Beach, Rainbow Falls, and Ka’u Coffee Mill. Adam was exceptional, so full of knowledge and stories, and went the extra mile to tailor the tour to what was of highest interest to us. We would absolutely recommend him!
Despite the rainy weather, the tour was amazing. Adam was a fantastic guide and amazing helps to my elderly family members!
Adam was great. High energy and really knows his history well. Great trip for our family with kids ages 10, 10 and 11. We went to see the ocean and a cool lava arch instead of the black sand beach. Rainbow falls, macadamia nut farm and farmers market to get mangosteen and white pineapple. great trip. Thanks.
