UFOs over Hawaii 🛸
This tour travels up to Mauna Kea, above the cloud cover, for night sky viewing with a focus on unidentified flying objects. Included equipment covers military-grade night vision goggles, low-light binoculars, a telescope, and chairs. Bottled water and light snacks are also provided, and blankets are available in limited supply. The experience is structured around learning to identify known objects in the sky, such as satellites, planes, helicopters, and drones, before moving on to objects that cannot be explained. Satellite tracking software is used throughout to remove any confusion about what is overhead. The listing also references work by Hawaii author and MUFON UFO researcher Zach Royer, whose writing on Hawaii UFO sightings provides background for the tour's subject matter. No hotel pickup is provided, so arranging independent transportation to the Mauna Kea meeting point is necessary before the tour begins.
Kona Haunted Hele 👻
Kona Haunted Hele 👻 is a walking ghost tour through Kailua-Kona, led by a local guide along the historic Ali'i Drive. The tour opens with a prayer of protection, a statement of intention, and an overview of Kona's history before moving to locations tied to reported supernatural activity. Stops include the historic site of human sacrifices, the path where the torch-wielding Night Marchers are believed to walk, the one-time royal summer palace of Hawaii's kings and queens, the first Christian church in the islands, and multiple cemeteries. Guests also hear the story of the old Kona Inn, which stands on the grounds of a temple associated with ki'i statues. At each location, paranormal activity detection equipment is available to use, and the tour closes with a white sage smudge. The route is wheelchair and scooter accessible, though guests are responsible for bringing and operating their own mobility equipment. The meeting point is sent by email after booking.
