This is one of our most popular tours because guests get two things they love, the volcano experience and stargazing. All in one tour. We begin our day with a late morning pickup at your Kona accommodation or nearby location. Our tour takes us south, through Kona coffee country and historic Kailua-Kona town. A beautiful stop for any of our Waikōloa guests to explore briefly as we pick up our local guests and continue heading south. The tour continues with stops at a bee and honey farm, coffee samplings, a bakery, and a black sand beach, all before reaching the entrance of Volcanoes National Park. Once in the national park, we will explore caves, various overlooks, the visitor center, and the Volcano House too. Stargazing can occur at various locations around the base of Mauna Kea. We look for quiet, dark areas so you can get a good view once your eyes adjust.
