What an absolute treasure of a day we spent with Mark our guide on the Hidden Craters hike! The hike was gorgeous and we were able to really experience the beauty of this island. Forests, canyons, caves, birds, amazing views with a warm hand towel at the end! Mark’s enthusiasm and love of nature was infectious and it truly added to our experience. We so enjoyed our small group who shared this with us. We highly recommend this adventure…one of the very best experiences yet!

Mark was fantastic! He made the experience unforgettable. He was very passionate about the land and knowledgeable about the area we were exploring. He made it as difficult or easy as we wanted along the way. The tour provided extra bags, walking sticks, snacks, drinks, and other options which was a great added bonus to the tour because the walking sticks were definitely needed. Would recommend this to anyone looking for an amazing hike with an amazing tour guide around Kona.

The description sold me. The experience was far better. Our guide was excellent and personable, adapting the hike to the abilities and desires of we adventurers. I learned much about the land and the volcano, with bonuses thrown in about trees, birds, and Hawaiian history. I highly recommend this trip.
