Loved the Volcano adventure

Posted on: 2017/03/26

This was our first trip to the Big Island. My family (including kids - 8 and 11) went on this adventure to learn about volcanoes and the Island. This trip delivered! Our tour guide, Steve, did a wonderful job of blending science, history, and culture as we drove around the Island and through Volcanoes National Park. Steve tailored the trip to suit the interests of the group (which we had fun getting to know along the way) and the most interesting events occurring on that day.

We saw the Thurston Lava Tube, steam vents, lava bubbling out of the caldera, steam from the lava entering the ocean and different types of lava flows. We learned about the flora and fauna native to the area, as well as plants and animals brought to the island.

This was a long day, and I was worried that my youngest might get cranky as it got late. He didn't. The van was comfortable. The walks to see the sights were appropriate for most abilities. The food served was tasty and filling (the vegetarian option was excellent).

We would highly recommend this trip to everyone. In fact, when we return to The Big Island, we will use this company again for another tour. Be sure to bring a jacket, good walking shoes, and a camera.
