Our trip was very well organised and I learnt a lot about volcanos. It was a poor visiability day with thick vog everywhere but we still saw lots of interesting views and received so much information about your National Park.

Great day - lots to see!! A very long day though - be prepared for a 15 hour+ day. Our guide was very friendly and knowledgeable. You will see a gaseous eruption at Kilauea, but don't expect to see lava flow - that's about 8 miles from the nearest road and there is definitely not enough time to fit a hike in to see it. It was a full sized tour bus, if you wanted a more tailored experience or with a smaller group, I would suggest that this isn't the tour for you, but if you are happy to be part of a larger group then you'll be happy on this one.

A big day starting at about 5am, the actual volcano tour in the latter stages I found to be the most interesting, prior to that I found it boring..

The tour guide was fantastic and volcanos amazing. However, the tour doesn't need to be a whole day. We really just wanted to see the volcanos, not macadamia factories or orchid farms that appeared to be "filler" stops in the morning. The tour finished 2hrs before the return flight meaning wasted time

The focus of this tour as advertised on Viator is the volcano. The very early start is not mentioned - 4.30am pick up from hotel for 7.30 flight. The morning was spent getting on and off a coach at tourist venues for 20 minutes at a time - following cruise ship buses full of noisy people (from the same company)! No opportunity for breakfast or drink until mid morning. The volcano itself is awesome but again we got on and off the coach between the viewpoints. It was frutrating ti stop at the national park centre with a map fo walking routes - none of which we had time to do! We could have walked the same route in a similar amount of time. If you are looking for a dedicated walk on a volcano this is not the tour for you. Several others on our trip felt they had been miss sold (not by Viator) as they expected a walking trip. If you want a dedicated walking trip to the volcano find another tour. A very long day which had highlights but a lot of sitting. A trip for the less mobile/able I would say.
