Some things are sublime and on this tour of the waterfalls and volcano parks you will understand that. It brings together nature, knowledge, beauty, amazement and reflection. End the day with an excellent dinner in a wonderful environment. Getting to know a volcano up close was fantastic. Highlight for the guide, Shaw ( Big Island Backroad Adventures Tours), who with tranquility and knowledge provided unforgettable moments for my family. Thanks e congratuletions for job.

Shawn was an amazing guide and super easy to work with. I boneheadedly made a mistake in booking and reached out to Shawn who immediately worked with me to correct the error and book on the right day. He worked with us to modify the tour to our specific requirements (drop off at the airport at a specific time), adding some more time at the black sands beach as our kids wanted to see the turtles. The time in the Volcanoes National Park was amazing. Shawn knows the ins and outs of the park and found some great off-the-beaten-path spots that really showed off the unique characteristics of lava. Highly recommend for any families looking to explore the Big Island.

We cannot say enough wonderful things about Big Island Backroad Adventures Tours! As first time visitors to the big island, taking the private volcano tour with Shawn turned out to be the perfect way to fully enjoy the day and make sure we got to experience what was most special for us. Having Shawn as our personal guide allowed us the opportunity to spend as much time as we wanted at each place of interest and also allowed us a level of personalization you just can’t get with group tours. As the day progressed Shawn was able to easily tweak our itinerary to make sure we got the most out of the experience. It was the coolest choose your own adventure we ever had! You can tell Shawn loves his job and loves the island. He was so knowledgeable and just an awesome guy for us to hang out with for the day. He was attentive from the moment we initially booked with him to the time we got dropped off, getting our input and feedback throughout to make sure it was meaningful. The transportation accommodations for the entire day were as comfortable as one can get, and not a detail was overlooked with all snacks, drinks and meals covered. Shawn brought all the equipment and outerwear we would have never considered bringing which allowed us to be prepared and comfortable at all times whether it be warm jackets for higher elevations to lighting equipment for our evening exploration. After enjoying our tour and day with Shawn we felt so much more connected to the island and also had some amazing new memories. Do not hesitate to book with Big Island Backroad Adventures Tours!
