Great day out with Tory - We had an excellent day exploring the big island with Tory as our tour guide. She was very knowledgeable about the islands history and all the sites. We definitely learnt a few fun facts along the way. She took us to some great places and gave us fantastic tips. We did the coffee farm, bakery, black sand beach, volcano, steam vents, waterfall, big island candies and a valley with the steepest road in the USA. A very enjoyable day and would highly recommend.

AAA+++ Big Island Circle Tour - We’ve done full day tours on the other islands but this one has become our favourite. Marcus, our guide, picked us up at our hotel in a newer very clean van. He shared a lot of history and interesting information as we made our way around the island. Seeing the black sand beach for the first time was definitely a highlight. The lunch stop was excellent with burgers and sandwiches along with the unique doughnut-like pastry which satisfied everyone’s sweet tooth. We thoroughly enjoyed each of our stops which were just the right length to see the location and take a bathroom break, if required. Volcano National Park was fascinating. The beauty of the Rainbow Falls is also amazing. Remember to bring your camera. Finally, the meals provided were a high quality and delicious. There was no comparison in taste and quantity to meals we’ve had provided on our previous tours. We highly recommend both this tour and Marcus as a guide!

Loved it! - Perfect Way to Tour the Island!! Our family of 4 did this tour just a few days after we arrived (daughters 15 and 9). It was a great way to explore and see areas that we might want to go back to while we there. We were on the sprinter van with our guide, Marcus, and 6 other friendly people. Marcus was extremely knowledgeable and told us many interesting things about the island and the places we visited. The stops were all unique, interesting and beautiful! The tour provided water, food and snacks. We were worried our 9 year old would be bored, but she loved the day! Would highly recommend booking this tour!

Brilliant - This is an excellent tour, so many amazing stops giving you an excellent oversight of the island. Our tour guide Robbie shared so much about her heritage us, stories and general knowledge keeping us entertained all day. The coffee farm was a great way to start the day, the waterfalls were beautiful and the Volcano National Park was spectacular. We would recommend this trip to anyone who wants to see a bit of everything.

Nice guide but too long with too many shopping stops - Our guide Adam was great, but some of the tour stops were just shopping opportunities. We booked last minute with many trips sold out, so we were limited in choice. The coffee stop and candy stop were totally a waste of time. We passed a painted church, which we would have loved to visit and several scenic outlook places that we assume would have been good photo ops, but passed by. The lunch and dinner sandwiches were mediocre. I asked the booking agent about the interior of the bus and she said no pictures were available. It is similar to an airport shuttle bus where you are constantly crawling over people to get out. We were hoping for a larger bus that allowed you to stand up inside with seating on both sides. Very uncomfortable for those with mobility issues. I would definitely rent a car and do it ourselves next time.
