Whirlwind day on the Big Island - Suzie was my guide on what ended up being a private tour of Hilo, Kiluea, and all around the big island. She shared a lot of history and stories about the landmarks we saw and had such a joy and excitement about the island that was contagious. I'd definitely recommend her and the Hilo Big Island/Helicopter tour!

Wonderful - Suzie was great, took us to a lot of places. Really enjoyed going to the Volcano Park. Was disappointed that the volcano wasn't erupting. But, not her fault.

Exploring volcanoes - Suzie was our driver for the day and showed us such an amazing time. She shared some of her own photos with us and had so much knowledge of the island. We even got to see some turtles at black sand beach. Thank you for a most memorable experience!!

Volcano National Park, Rainbow Falls & Black sand beach - Our driver/tour guide was Suzie and she was phenomenal!! From her amazing personality the moment we got out of the airport to her wealth of knowledge during the entire tour. We were so lucky to see the most beautiful sites of the Volcano National Park, Rainbow Waterfall and a black sand beach! My husband and I truly had the best day trip on the big island because of Suzie, a must book!!

Informative, fun tour! - Sue was an awesome tour guide! She knew so much about Hilo and the surrounding area on the Big Island. She was fun to be with and showed us a lot of sites, including Hawaii Volcanoes National Park, Rainbow Falls, humongous Banyan trees, Waipio Valley, and Laupahoehoe. She also recommended a DELICIOUS lobster club sandwich at the Coconut Grill. Our family of five enjoyed our day with her and the relaxed, fun tour.
