Q&A

Q: Is there a minimum age for kids to join this tour?

A: The tour is great for families, but I’d recommend kids around 6 years and older since there’s some moderate walking, especially in the lava tube. It's not super intense, but younger ones might get tired. Just check with the tour provider if they have any specific age limits.

Q: What should I wear for the lava tube part? Is it muddy?

A: Definitely wear sturdy shoes, like hiking boots or sneakers, since the lava tube can be a bit slippery and rocky. I’d also suggest wearing something comfortable that you don't mind getting a bit dirty, just in case. Layers can be good too since it’s cooler in the tube.

Q: Can this tour be rescheduled if the weather turns bad?

A: Yes! If there’s bad weather, the provider is usually pretty flexible about rescheduling. Just make sure to give them a call as soon as you know. They want everyone to have a great time and stay safe.

Just did the Big Island Hilo Day Tour and wow!

I went on this tour last week and it was epic! The views at Kilauea crater were unreal. Walking through the lava tube was such a cool experience. I loved learning about the history from our guide too. Lunch at that local spot in Volcano Village was delicious, had some awesome poke! Definitely recommend it as a gift for anyone who loves nature and a bit of adventure.

Thinking about gifting the Hilo Day Tour - any tips?

I’m planning to gift this experience to my parents. They’ve always wanted to visit Hawaii but haven’t had the chance. It sounds like such a great mix of sights. Is the black sand beach really as cool as it sounds? Any advice on how to make it a special day for them?
