FAQs

How much hiking do we do?
We will have a couple of easy hikes over a short distance on this tour. The total distance is about 1.5 miles

Will we get to see active lava?
Due to the dynamic nature of active volcanoes, lava viewing conditions change daily or even hourly. The best viewing of current eruptive activity is on our Twilight Volcano Tour. We will do our best to get you to the closest viewing area providing it is safe and legal.

What's the difference between the Twilight Volcano Tour and Circle Island Tour?
Both tours feature a Kona coffee farm, Punalu'u black sand beach, and Hawai‘i Volcanoes National Park. The Circle Island Tour adds two waterfalls and Waipio Valley Lookout with about 1.5 hours in the national park, while the Twilight Volcano Tour offers about 3 hours in the national park, a restaurant dinner, and stargazing near Mauna Kea.
