Both of the guides were outstanding!!! They were knowledgable and entertaining!!! We went 12 miles which seemed to go by in only minutes... we had fequent stops tons of Hawaiian and volcano history. A longer ride would not have been an issue for me and would have been very enjoyable!!! The food was outstanding and our day was absolutely awesome!!! The views were amazing and we would have missed so many of them if we had not taken the bike ride! I highly recommend the trip and I hope you have the same guides. They truely made the trip more than a bike ride! Have fun, I did!!!

My fiancee and I went together. It was my first time. I am afraid of heights, so I figured it would be a good way to challenge myself. I had a great time. We went the 1200 ft. option for 10 dollars more. So worth it! I cant wait to go again. So peacefull up there, at the same time exhilarating!!

This trip was long and somewhat strenuous. The sea cave was a bit of a let down. It was not as cool as it looked online. The snorkling was great and the tour guides definately knew there stuff. I would not reccomend this trip for a first time kayaker. The water was a little ruff on the way back which made it a long row. For the dare devils there was a 15 foot cliff to jump off. They also provided snacks and juices including fresh pineapple. Overal we had a great time.

This was a pleasant outing and particularly enjoyable for kids. If you think you might get seasick, I would recommend you take a ginger capsule before you go. Looking down into the water can make you a little queezy. Very informative and was helpful to have someone describing what you see.

I don't know how to swim, and no way would I try snorkeling without even knowing how to float, so this was right up my alley. The staff was engaging and funny and knew a lot about the fish that we saw. We floated over several clusters of coral and although I didn't see anything as cool as a dolphin or manta ray, I did see a variety of exotic fish I had never known outside of an aquarium. Sadly, it's a quick 1 hour because you're so focused on looking at the windows that you lose track of time.
I don't recommend taking tons of pictures like someone here suggested, only because the fish move so fast that you'd probably get bad shots anyway and secondly, you really want to enjoy this uninterrupted without a contraption mounted to your face. Maybe take a snapshot of the first reef so you can tell people "I experienced this," then put the camera away for good.

this was the first time we did parasailing, we really enjoyed it. The staff gave us a good ride, we were up in the air for quite a while. So, you get service what you have paid for it and worths it. I would recommend this activity with UFO.

We just came back from our honeymoon in the Big Island. We took this whale watch trip, and I must say this was by far the most enjoyable sailing trip we did in Hawaii. Being Discovery Channel lovers, we were so excited to see the real whales in front of us! We can't wait to go back there someday. Five stars!

Food and show was good. But, we would like to have some more interaction with audiences to perform Luau dance. We were expecting atleast that during the course of performances. Though it was done as brief introductory on Luau dance before the show began but it would be nice if we could participate as family then it would be very very more vibrant live show where family, friends, kids everybody can enjoy and have fun. This is a small request if they can spend some time during their main course of performance on this.
Other than that food, drinks are delicious. Here is a small request if they can put name tag in front of the each of the dish / item so people who are verigiterian / non-vegiterian can pickup their food selection very easily and can avoid un-necessary waist on the food. Though the organizer anounced the all the food items but by putting a name tag for food items that are served on that day would not cost any more.
Thanks

The experience with the mantas was the highlight of our honeymoon. They are beautiful, amazing creatures and spending time with them was fantastic. The scuba diver who attracts the mantas also filmed it and it was the one DVD/picture set that we bought of all of our tours. We really loved the animals, but hte experience was so-so. Do NOT go on this tour if you are not comfortable snorkeling, as they really do not hold your hand--you go in the water in the dark and there isn't really a lifeguard or somebody making sure that you are with the pack. Its fine if you are comfortable, just be warned. The only other downside was the other people on the boat with us who, instead of passively watching the creatures and taking their turn with them, swam over on top of us every time the manta were near us. We got kicked in the head by stranger's fins and we have it all on tape! I might recommend trying to get somebody to take you on a personal charter for this beautiful experience, it would probab

Food was very good and it was helpful that they explained all the items on the buffet for those not familiar with Luau fare. The show was very well done and we had fun doing the activities at the beginning. Only downside is they do all the activities at the same time (hula lesson, palm weaving, etc.) so you can only do one. Also, if you're expecting a flower lei be prepared to pay extra for it or bring your own. We got ours at Costco, they sell a 2 pack of fresh orchid leis for only $6.50. Overall, a very fun evening right on the beach.

When my fiancee told me that he wanted to take a bike tour of a volcano, I was like, "NO WAY!" but I am SOOO glad that I went since it was literally the BEST tour that we went on while on the Big Island!
The guides are soooo informative and all the places we were able to go was way awesome. It was so nice to feel the sun and the breeze while touring instead of being cooped up in a bus! :)
My favorites were seeing the old lava flows, the smoking crater and the visit to the winery. I brought back a few bottles and everyone LOVES them!
I can't wait to try this again and have reccomended this tour to all of my friends! Yay! :)

Overall the tour was enjoyable, but it could have been better. The driver forgot to pick me up at my hotel and I had to call to remind them. The driver/guide gave a great deal of information about everthing, so much so that the constant talk became a blur after a while. The sights we saw were great for a first timer to the island, but if I were to come back, I would stay on the west coast and drive over to see the volcano.

Best meal we had on the island, & the entertainment was really well done. This was our first trip to the Big Island for our 20th anniversary, so we were trying to pack in a wide variety of activities. A Luau was almost a must on the list of things to do. We were not sure what to expect, but the experience was one we wouldn't have wanted to miss. Very well done by everyone involved. Mahalo!

This is a great trip and a REAL adventure. This is also a great value. The kayaking on the ocean is fun but can be physically demanding. We are in decent shape but we were pretty tired at the end of the trip. Good snorkling and cliff jumping. The guide is informative and competent.

The Snorkel Cruise was one of our top two activities. We very much enjoyed the cruise out to the Black Sand Beach. We saw some whales along the route. We enjoyed the snorkeling even more. This was our first ocean snorkeling cruise experience. We had snorkeled a little bit over the years but no where with as much color and marine life. Highly recommended whether you have snorkeled or not. The staff is very helpful and seem to enjoy their job. (if you can call that a job). Makes it a great experience. Very convenient launch from the Waikoloa Marriot. Very nice for us because that is where we stayed. Others were shuttled there and I am sure that was no problem either. Nice activity. Would do again.
