    Bad weather was just the luck of the draw, however, the vehicle was an older Toyota van that was noisy making it hard to hear the guide. Make sure what the vehicle you will be riding in before you book it

    Karen was a excellent tour host. Her know was on point. She made us feel welcome, educated us on the history of Hawaii, taught us new words, and told us about the multiple languages here including pigeon… to top it off Michael cracked a coconut for us. I would recommend this trip to anyone coming to the big island. Oh yeah, I forgot Karen recommended a dinner location in kona called Quinn’s almost by the sea. 👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿

    See the sights in Hilo
    Craig_G
    , Dec. 2019
    This was a good excursion that we took while in Hilo for the day. Great choice rather than a crowded cruise based excursion. We were picked up in a nice newer passenger van. Only 8 total people in our group. Our day in port was a bit short, so some of the stops felt rushed. But as a group we talked with the guide and made some adjustments. Bring a light snack, although we did stop at a 7/11 for lunch.

    Poor Communication from Viator/Trip Advisor - Always book direct with tour agency.
    JOHN_M
    , Dec. 2019
    The following review reflects on Viator and not solely on the tour operator. We booked with Viator over the phone, gave our trip and flight info and they booked this tour for us. Received a text the day before the tour by the operator to change my flight time or location or we would not be able to attend... Thanks for the notice! Perhaps when I booked this tour Viator could have provided all this information.

    Shore excursion. This tour is for cruise ships. This tour which operates on days ships arrive and are joined with cruise ship guests. Please don’t book air without checking with us. This is shore excursion from cruise ship; not, from airplane. We need flight number and time of departure and return flight and flight time.

    , Nov. 2019
    The driver/guide, John was very, very knowledgeable on everything about the island, History and culture to real estate to geology to plants, etc, etc. This is a six hour tour that makes a lot of stops. It was raining much of the day but John made the stops and everything worked out very well. We would recommend for first timers or anyone that wants a good overview of the area.

    Nicely paced trip around the hot spots near Hilo
    Nathan_B
    , Sep. 2019
    We enjoyed the fact that this was not on one of those giant buses. It was nice to only worry about a few couples getting on and off the bus vs a large crowd. Each stop was 20-30 minutes and they were spaced out to the point where you do not spend hours driving to get to a short 20 minute stop and leave. The variety of the stops between waterfalls, Volcano National Park, and other attractions kept the tour perfectly balanced. My wife and I really enjoyed this trip and I would recommend it to anyone.

    Hilo, Hawaii bus tour for cruise ship people
    Dee C
    , Jul. 2019
    The tour was very thorough and the driver and guide were both helpful and knowledgeable. It wasn't clear that we would have to buy our lunch at a gas station to take on the bus for later. Also, the tour ended up being 6 hours instead of 5 so it got a little long and people were antsy.

    The tour guide did an excellent job of getting us to a variety of locations on the island and keeping to a schedule that allowed us to see everything. This was a much better deal than the similar excursion offered by NCL.

    Where is the pickup point?
    Wayne_A
    , Mar. 2019
    Mel did a great job of taking us around and sharing his knowledge of the island and sites. We had a slow start however as the pickup was at least 1/2 mile outside where the other vendors pickup and drop off so a few couples were late in getting to the van. Providing a map would have been handy if they don't have access to the vendor area next time. The van had no markings and no hand sign was available to be seen when approaching where it was parked in a remote lot
