Deluxe Volcano Tour & Stargazing Experience with Gourmet Dinner (from Kona)
Experience the best of the Big Island and visit Hawaii Volcanoes National Park! Explore a lava tube, visit Puna District and see the lava fields from the most recent eruption in 2018. Enjoy delicious fine dining at Kilauea Lodge for dinner.
Climb aboard a luxurious Mercedes Sprinter passenger van and sit back in comfort as your expert guide takes you on day full of adventure. Choose from multiple, equally interesting routes to explore the volcanic beauty of Big Island. You'll begin by seeing the ancient lava flows of Mauna Kea and Mauna Loa as you travel along Saddle Road to the lush, tropical landscape of Hilo. There, you'll visit the Kaumana Caves, a lava tube made 150 years ago, before heading down to Puna, where the most recent eruptions occurred. Your last sightseeing destination will be the famous, newly-reopened Hawaii Volcanoes National Park, where you'll see the results of the Fissure 8 eruptions and the collapsed Kilauea Crater.
