What To Expect

Bay View Farm

Travel south into Kona coffee country for the first stop at Bay View Farm, a working 24 acre coffee farm nestled on the slopes of Mauna Loa Volcano just above beautiful Kealakekua Bay and known for the best Kona coffee since 1984. Here you’ll see coffee growing on the trees and learn about the various steps and processes in making coffee, all of which happen right here on the farm. You’ll sample Kona Coffee at a gorgeous overlook with stunning views of Kealakekua Bay and the monument to Captain Cook standing on the only sliver of British land in the United States.

Punalu'u Black Sand beach

The adventure continues as you head through the South Kona and Ka’u Districts. Stunning views, alternating between stark lava flows and Hawaiian dry forest, are visible through the huge picture windows of your tour vehicle. We stop briefly at picturesque Punalu’u Black Sand Beach. Lined with swaying coconut palm trees, this is one of the best black sand beaches on the island. Stroll along the beach and look for honu (Green Hawaiian Sea Turtles) feeding just offshore or sun-worshipping on the sand

Hawaii Volcanoes National Park

Next travel to the crown jewel of Hawaii, Hawaii Volcanoes National Park. Visit the Kilauea Visitor’s Center, the Kilauea Iki Crater Overlook, and Steaming Bluffs. Take a walk through the famous Volcano House to view the smoking and steaming Kilauea Caldera. Dropping down into the lush eastern side of Kilauea Volcano our next stop is Big Island Candies.

Waipio Valley Lookout

Waipio Valley, known as the Valley of Kings, is a place of impossibly steep cliffs carved by plunging waterfalls cascading more than a thousand feet to the valley floor below. Waipio Valley is still home to taro farmers as it has been for a thousand years. Look closely from the overlook and glimpses of the wild horses that roam the valley floor might be possible

This was a great tour. We were hesitant to book this tour due to the 12 hour duration, however every minute was well worth it. 10 guests on a comfortable bus made the tour very personable. Our tour guide, Lisa, was the best guide we have ever had. She was very knowledgeable and made us all feel like family. I would highly recommend this tour.

This was a wonderful tour of the Big Island for first timers to the island. We were picked up at our hotel which was a huge plus since we didn't have a car. Kent was an outstanding tour guide, and knew the island like the back of his hand! He was also a great storyteller, and so much of the Hawaii tradition is based on Gods, and Goddesses. He knew all the stories. I would highly recommend this tour. You won't be disappointed!
