10/10! Shawn was amazing!!! We learned all about the island and felt like we got to see it all! Meals were delicious and Shawn was prepared for everything. We kept a good pace and got to see so much of the island. He took pictures, gave us tips for dining and was great with our kids. We learned so much and enjoyed the waterfalls, sunset, black sand beach, Volcanos national park and more. This would our favorite tour of the island and if it is your first time to Hawaii I could not recommend this tour more!
