This was an amazing insiders look at the 2018 eruption! Heath was a great guide! It was humbling to hear his experiences and see his actual home that was lost in the eruption. We highly recommend this tour!!!

One of the best tours I have ever been on. See and hear the stories of people that lived through this disaster. Experience the up close and personal tour and see Fissure 8 and feel the heat that still permeates from the cracks in the ground. You don't want to miss this. Our guide Rod was friendly and very knowledgeable. This is a tour that you will not be able to find with any other company. Don't MISS IT!

We thoroughly enjoyed our tour of the eruption sites and the infamous fissures of Leilani Estates. Our guide, Rod, was friendly and very knowledge about the event and area since he experienced it first hand as a resident of this area. We were able to get up close to several fissures that still emit steam from deep within the earth. I liked that with this tour you are able to get so close and still respect the property and land. I would recommend this tour to anyone who would like a personal and unique experience that you really cannot get with any other company.
