Best island experience - One of the best tours my wife and I have had. Desmond and Anthony were on time and made the tour fun, informational and educational. Highly recommend. Lunch at the local dinner was some of the best food we had while on the island. They even had a sample of local fruits for my wife and I to eat at the black sand beach. They took their time to ensure our experience was complete and enjoyable. Thank you for the wonderful and memorable vacation experience.

Just book it! - Wonderful tour with thoughtful and knowledgeable guides. Lifelong residents of the big island treated us to amazing scenery as well as a terrific history lesson. Their love for Hawaii shines though in their work. We absolutely loved them!

Amazing Tour - This was a great tour and we had 2 amazing guides, they were so fun and extremely knowledgeable. I have mobility issues and they were great in insuring that I was able to manage. I highly recommend Anthony and Desmond they made the experience for us. 2 gentlemen. The Lava Tube is a bit of a walk with stairs but if you take it easy it is manageable. Lights were off for our visit whi h made it that bit more entertaining for the kids.

Top Tour in Hilo ! - Amazing day in Hilo. We enjoy every minute of our trip through waterfalls, lava tubes, volcano en as the black sans beach. Sadly Kilauea was « just » smoky and not erupting but still incredible moment. We saw some turtles at the beach. But the best part of our day was the kindness and all the polynesian and nativ hawaiian knowlesge of our 2 fabulons guides Desmond and Anthony. Good job guys, u made these beautifull landscapes even better !

What a tour! - Desmond and Anthony were a great tour guide team! We learned about the history, plants/animals and interesting facts about the big island. They were so kind, friendly, making us feel like family. They were even willing to double back if the volcano erupted as it was smoking quite a bit the day of our tour. Would highly recommend this tour!

Christiani - Anthony & Desmond were fabulous! I thought we'd see more waterfalls. The food for lunch was good. The waitress was rude to our group. She seemed to be more concerned about her big group that was coming in rather than our group. Waited on & served people that came in after us. The fruit break was a wonderful surprise.
