The price listed is for the entire van for up to 10 people. We live in Volcano and we are both National Park Certified Interpretive Guides so you are getting the best experience. Out of the 3 hours we are driving for only about 45-55 minutes.
We created this activity to make learning about volcanoes budget and family-friendly. There is so much to learn in the Park and so much to see it would be difficult to know how to prioritize if you are on your own. Ride along in our Mercedes van and see video footage of past eruptions. This tour is customized to your and your group's interests. There are easy hikes and more difficult hikes, there is a lot to see and do.
Give you and your family an exciting experience you will remember and get more out of the National Park than you would if you were on your own!
Due to consistent bad weather, we have removed the 1 PM option.
* Dress code: LAYERS and raincoats; mountain weather can change 20 degrees in 1 morning.*

This tour gave us the highlights of Hawaii Volcanoes National Park within a well paced 3 hours, perfect for a family with members ages 3 to 81. Skylar was THE BEST guide, we learned a ton and he took so many photos of the group for us to remember this experience. Snacks and water were provided and the transportation was comfortable. Highly recommend!

Our guide Skylar is very knowledgeable and professional. We learned a lot about the volcanoes and the park during the drop. Would recommend to anyone.

Our experience with Skylar was fantastic! My family couldn’t stop talking about the great day and how it wouldn’t have been the same without his knowledge. He shared so much about the island and the Park and kept the day exciting. He was also great with my 83 year mom and took great care of her at all the stops ensuring she was safe. I can’t say enough about this tour! Well worth the money! Excellent!!!!!

What a great way to start our vacation on the Big Island. The van comfortably fit my family of 5 plus my elderly mother and in-laws. The tour guide was friendly, informative, and accommodating of our group's different needs and desires (kids wanting to run and climb and explore, grandparents needing to take it much slower). It was so nice to be able to sit back and relax and get driven around in a comfortable vehicle while we learned all about the park, making multiple stops to explore.

This was such an incredible afternoon! We did the short tour with Skylar, our tour guide. We were with my four boys ranging from 10-14 and Skylar did such an amazing job keeping things interesting for them. He was very engaging and it was the perfect amount of time to spend in the park with the kids. We learned so much and Skylar also took hundreds of pictures that will be available for us to download. Honestly, as the resident family photographer, this was such an added bonus as I didn’t have to worry about “getting the pictures” and I could just enjoy myself. I loved driving down the chain of craters road, seeing the lava river bed and the views were stunning. At the end of the tour, we saw the most incredible rainbow that was dipping down into the large crater behind the volcano house. Unbelievable! Also, Jodi, the owner of the tour company, was incredibly kind, giving some suggestions of hikes in the park. The whole experience was easy to plan and incredible to do. One of the highlights of our trip on the Big Island!

Fantastic experience visiting Volcanoes National Park. Our guide did a great job making the most of the 3.5 hours in the massive park. Our kids (and adults) appreciated the videos he played in the van betweens tops to give us more context and background knowledge on what we were seeing. Great day overall

This was a great overview tour of the Park. Skylar is an outstanding tour guide. He answered all of our questions fully and tailored the tour to what we wanted to see and learn about.
