Pick-up from Kona Hotels
Drive to Hilo across the Saddle Road located between Mauna Kea and Mauna Loa, two of the tallest volcanoes on Earth, and your National Park Service certified guide will discuss the volcanology, geology, and history of the volcanoes, while also sharing fascinating myths and stories of Hawaii.
Head over to Kaumana Caves, part of a historic lava tube system, and take a look inside the dramatic cathedral-like space, before taking a quick drive through quaint Hilo town where you will drive along the historic waterfront before stopping at the KapohoKine Adventures store to pick up supplies.
Make your way to the Hawaii Volcanoes National Park, and after a picnic lunch inside the National Park, hike along the three-mile Halemaumau trail to see the Kilauea Caldera, then over to the lava-filled Halemaumau Crater, the Mauna Ulu Forest Loop, Thurston Lava Tube, and Steaming Bluffs!
Take your pick from a variety of different dishes at the Lava Rock Cafe, and complete your day with a delicious dinner. This unique mom and pop cafe sits nestled within an Ohi'a and bamboo forest, and utilizes locally sourced ingredients which make this spot popular for locals and visitors alike.
