Oahu to Big Island - Volcanoes National Park & Waterfall Tour on Motorcoach
Experience the wonders of the Volcano Isle as you are transported from your Waikiki hotel to the Airport, and off to the Big Island for the entire day.
Explore Kilauea on this exceptional all-day tour from Oahu. Enjoy panoramic views as your tour features stops at some of the Big Island's premier locales. After arriving in Hilo, drive through this historic town and enjoy some sightseeing and shopping. Continue on to the picturesque Rainbow Falls before making your way to the world famous Kilauea Volcano which has been steadily erupting since the 1980's. The narrated volcano adventure even features a hike over the lava flow that covered the village of Kalapana. This tour is a great way to explore the fascinating Volcanoes National Park.
Participants with asthma or other respiratory problems should consider taking the Hawaii Circle Island Tour instead to avoid potential health problems from exposure to fumes (volcanic gases).
Please Note: Prices are subject to change due to overage fees. If any overage fees should arise after the time of booking, you will be given the choice to either cancel or proceed with your booking.
