I cannot recommend Wasabi Tours' Big Island in a Day enough! I never do organized tours, preferring to explore new places on my own, but I am so glad we did this tour. It is a long but perfectly paced day that takes in everything that I had already decided I wanted to see.
We were very fortunate to have David Kearnes as our guide. I am sure all of Wasabi's guides are good, but Dave was super knowledgeable about Hawaiian history and culture, shares detailed information about the beautiful sites, has a great sense of humor, and was upbeat the whole 12 hours. Pro tip: Be sure to tell him if you are a scuba diver. His underwater photography and videos are amazing!
The tour covered numerous sites, provided lunch, and even rain ponchos when there was a light rain over one of the waterfalls. It seemed like everything was very well thought out.
On a trip where every day was great, spending the day discovering Big Island with Dave and Wasabi Tours was one of the best!
