About this tour
Spend a day exploring Kilauea, one of the Big Island of Hawaiʻi’s most striking natural landmarks. This small-group or private tour focuses on Kilauea and Hawaiʻi Volcanoes National Park, where dramatic volcanic scenery unfolds across a landscape shaped by the volcano.
Travel by private vehicle and discover the area from the summit toward the shore. The full-day focus gives you time to appreciate Kilauea’s varied terrain and expansive views. Hotel or airport pickup and drop-off, a picnic lunch, bottled water, and snacks are included, so you can concentrate on the scenery. Groups are limited to six people per booking, with at least two required for shared and private tours.

- Each provider rating is turned into a percentile: the share of that provider's ratings it beats, weighted by review counts.

- Tours with few reviews are pulled toward the average until more reviews come in, so a handful of perfect reviews can't top the list.
- The result is shown from 0 to 10: this tour scores 8.3. Top 18% in Big Island of Hawaii means it ranks in the top 18% of tours in Big Island of Hawaii by this score.
