We had a great day, the place is exceptionally beautiful. The tour was split in to a large coach and a small mini bus, we were very lucky to be on the mini bus as the driver explained he would rearrange the day to avoid the crowds (we were from the cruise ship so there were about 8 other large coaches going to the same place).

Pick up was easy, the driver was funny, friendly and helpful, we saw everything on the itinerary and then some additional spectacular spots courtesy of the drivers knowledge. We had 15 to 30 minutes in each of the places which doesn't sound long but was more than adequate.

Have found all Viator tours well planned and arranged. Would always go them first to book.

An eye opener to see such scenery for the first time. Our coach driver had a vast knowledge and kept us entertained for the entire journey. A tour not to miss.

This was our favorite tour, our driver was very funny and made the trip fun, gave us good hints on purchases at the Coffee store, the Kona Shortbread cookies were wonderful, we saw so many beautiful sights and learned so much about the Big Island. Highly recommend this tour.
