Evening Volcano Explorer from Hilo

Overview

The original volcano lovers tour. Start with a drive through quaint Hilo town where you’ll drive along the historic waterfront before heading out to the old fishing village of Kalapana. Your National Park Service certified guide will discuss the volcanology, geology, and history of Kilauea volcano, as well as providing in-depth narration on the various lava flows and flora and fauna that you’ll be passing by.

This is a wonderful way to have the Hawaii volcano experience! Our guides, Rich and Jenna, were generous with their knowledge and showed us a wonderful time. We might do this tour again someday!

It ended up being a personalised tour for me and Jessie, my guide, was awesome. He's a wealth of local information and stories. Definitely recommending this for anyone who's thinking of doing an evening out with the volcano.
