About this tour
Dive deep into Hawai'i Volcanoes National Park on this private all-inclusive tour, available in 8-hour or 12-hour versions. Unlike tours that only skim the surface, this adventure takes you through the full park - including the entire Chain of Craters Road from summit to sea, a route many tour companies skip entirely.
Travel across Saddle Road between Mauna Kea and Mauna Loa to reach the park. Walk the rim of Halema'uma'u Crater at the summit of Kīlauea, feel the volcanic heat at Wahinekapu Steaming Bluffs, and explore the 600-foot Thurston Lava Tube. Then venture down the full 22-mile Chain of Craters Road, stopping at various craters, lava flows, and eruption sites as your guide builds a custom itinerary based on your interests.
The 12-hour version adds the opportunity to stay past dark for eruption viewing (if active), plus a sit-down dinner at a local restaurant in the town of Volcano.
Everything is included - park fees, picnic lunch, snacks, all beverages, Patagonia rain jacket and Nano Puff, Nikon binoculars, hiking poles, flashlights, umbrellas, and 20-25 professionally edited photos. Private Mercedes van for up to 7 guests of all ages. Pickup from your lodging. Wheelchairs accommodated if collapsible.
