Mauna Kea Summit Adventures Sunset & Stargazing Guided Tour with Transportation
Great guide, but weather didn’t cooperate
Reviewed by: SarahB, 2022/01/03Our guide was informative and personable, and made the best of a bad situation as we arrived to the visitor station to find the road closed due to bad weather, then had to wait for an accident to be cleared on our way back down.
We are being refunded, no complaints!

We had a fabulous time!
Reviewed by: Linda Sioux, 2022/01/01We loved this excursion. We came prepared and had plenty of clothes, hats and gloves. The dinner was yummy. The snow was hysterical- we live in CO and had to go to HI for snow- our guide was over the edge with enthusiasm and knowledge - loved our stargazing- don't delay-book today! This was not an easy one to book!!!

Spirit of Aloha Kohala Coast Snorkel Tour with Lunch & Drinks - Hawaii Nautical
Delightful Snorkel Cruise
Reviewed by: Grandma Tess, 2021/12/22Despite a windy day, Captain Cindy was able to find a great place to snorkel. The briefing provided by the captain described the best ways to snorkel. I learned something new! I felt safe as the crew had a member who went on a surfboard to watch over the participants.
I can’t believe the hospitality of the crew— serving drinks, food and snacks with ease.
This was one of the highlights of our trip.

Kohala Coast Sunset Cocktail Sail Cruise with Open-Bar [Apr-Dec]
So much fun!
Reviewed by: NMS, 2021/12/15We really enjoyed ourselves on our cruise. The captain and crew were amazing and incredibly attentive. It was a choppy night on the ocean but they made it fun and it helped to take our minds off of it. We even spotted a few whales on our trip. We highly recommend!
Aloha,
Thanks for taking the time to provide feedback about your Pau Hana Sunset Cruise. We're so happy to read that despite the choppy ocean conditions, you enjoyed your cruise and your interactions with our Captain and crew. We know there are a lot of activity providers on the island and we're honored you chose to both join us and to recommend us!

Mauna Kea Summit Adventures Sunset & Stargazing Guided Tour with Transportation
“STAR”gazing!
Reviewed by: Adventure Grandma, 2021/12/11This tour was Amazing! We have traveled to many fabulous places around the globe with lots of adventure & this tour was right up there with the best! Our guide, Gage, was fun, informative, patient, and an all-round delightful young man! Having to reschedule due to the Kona Low & Mauna Kea blizzard was easy & ultimately a better tour due to lots of beautiful snow at the summit! Our guide prepared us well for the seriously high altitude and checked on everyone frequently! Be sure to pack hats & gloves and the tour provided parkas were plenty warm. A couple e of things to keep in mind before going: bring a refillable water bottle, remember to nose in & slow pursed lip breathing out, bring your camera or cell phone for pictures, visit the restroom at the visitor center so you won’t have to go at very high elevation, and eat before the tour begins (the provided dinner is pretty simple). Just pack a smile and enjoy the “high”! The stargazing with the telescope was extra special! Who knows, we saw a Jedi, a snowman, & a crazy snowboarder so maybe you will too! Thanks for a great memory!

Mauna Kea Summit Adventures Sunset & Stargazing Guided Tour with Transportation
One of the best tours ever
Reviewed by: Jacqueline Lorah, 2021/10/06Ok, this is honestly one of the best tours I have ever taken. The van was super comfy, and our guide Arthur was informative, friendly, and honestly just plain fun! Obvious he LOVES this tour.
Words just cannot describe the beauty of this tour. From the drive up, to the spectacular sunset, to the jaw dropping star gazing......endless beauty. Plus, Arthur made sure we stayed safe, and kept us informed about what we should do and what to expect. I felt comfortable and at ease.
Thank you, thank you, thank you for this amazing experience. If you do one thing on the Big Island......do this.

Mauna Kea Summit Adventures Sunset & Stargazing Guided Tour with Transportation
Very Very Entertaining.
Reviewed by: H. Shoenfield, 2021/09/30Tour Guide was an enthusiast, patient, native who shared culture, history, science, jokes and Hawaiian myths and songs. You can't ask for more from a guide. Try to book for a moonless night for best view of stars. They use an automated 11 inch telescope. The food was surprisingly very good (vegetable lasagna), the brownie decadent and the hot chocolate and biscotti at the end a nice touch. Had an issue finding the pick up spot, but a phone call resolved this since we were close. If you miss the sign for the international market (if that's your pick up spot), look for the 76 gas station, enter there and drive to the back. Dress warmly and bring a refillable drink. Cold (but not terribly) even with the given parka and gloves. A very enjoyable 8 hour afternoon & evening l

Reviewed by: Giselle + Saul, 2021/09/11Rich was the best guide. He was incredibly knowledgeable about everything we saw, and even when it was cloudy on Mauna Kea, he told us ancient Hawaiian stories until the clouds cleared and we could see everything we came out to see. A++++ would go again in a heartbeat. Thanks Rich!!!

Kilauea Volcano Helicopter Tour - Blue Hawaiian Circle of Fire Flight from Hilo
A different experience
Reviewed by: BigIslandEye, 2021/09/01A lot of people will complain about this tour if they don’t see lava and that’s on them. If you need to see lava, do your research and book appropriately. I’m frustrated that we couldn’t see lava shooting into the sky but we saw a perspective that not many others will ever see. I would have booked a waterfalls or other tour but it was a great family experience and the pilot Wesley was great.

Hoomau Waikoloa Luau, Hawaiian Dinner Show & Fire Dance at Mai Grille Restaurant
Started off great, ended in disappointment
Reviewed by: Wolfe Family , 2021/08/22The location and everything at the start was great but the fact that a 3 hr show ended after an hour because of 20 mins of rain was extremely disappointing. We understand the show had to stop briefly but did not understand why it just ended after a few mins after the rain stopped. Was truly looking forward to the luau show and we barely got to see one. Food and staff were all good except no one really explained why the show ended so quickly.

Big Island Spectacular Circle Island Helicopter Flight with Landing Option
Phenomenal!
Reviewed by: Kasandra, 2021/08/16Toshi was PHENOMENAL! He was very engaging and made us feel so comfortable. You could tell he has such a warm spirit. The flight itself was nothing short of amazing, and I actually cried while flying through the valley because of how beautiful it is, later to find out Toshi made the playlist and it hit perfectly. There are no scenic roads to take you to where this helicopter goes, the helicopter ride is the only way to see these parts of Hawaii 1,000% worth it.
