We had a great tour with Dan as our guide. Dan was very knowledgeable and helpful and made sure we had plenty of time at each stop. There was one scheduled stop that we had already done so Dan offered to take us to a different location that we had casually mentioned we wanted to see. We really appreciated his flexibility. Highly recommend

Just a natural wonder to see how the earth is really made! A must see. Kimo was a really good guide.

This is less a critique than a word of caution about refunds for compassionate reasons. I had booked and prepaid the tour prior to leaving Canada. At the first tour stop, 10 minutes from the Hilo port pick-up location, I was feeling ill. My husband and I felt it was best to request a return to port so as not to inconvenience anyone in the 10 passenger van should we get further away and I needed medical assistance. The driver, Dan, kindly advised it was no big deal to return us to the port -- we were that close. Given the unforeseen circumstances, I requested a full or partial refund (when you book through Viator, you can request a refund for exceptional and unforeseen circumstances). The answer to my request was a resounding no from Mahalini Tours. So I was charged $854 CAD for a trip we could not take. I would have been happy with even a partial refund, but they were not interested in even considering it. Viator tried to intervene on my behalf to no avail. The whole experience left me feeling very disappointed about customer service and Mahalini Tours. Lesson learned. I would not prebook anything with this company.

This was a fantastic tour, our guide Dan was so knowledgeable and pleasant and welcoming he is an asset to the business and promoted the culture and the island so well.

Our driver John was spectacular!! We had a truly amazing time!! He took us to all the places we wanted to visit, and gave us gifts at each stop, either Portuguese donuts, macadamia nuts, and other treats. I highly recommend this trip with Viator and this specific company and driver!!

Kimo aka James was a wonderful tour guide. Gave us all sorts of great knowledge and education about Hawaii. Wasn't pushy with our time. allowing us to explore at our leisure. He took pictures for us. The sites were amazing. The candy store was "eh". Kimo told us how they used to provide more samples, but since COVID things have changed.

Elizabeth_B

Dan was super knowledgeable. We went to all the highlights. We had a 4 year old but we stopped often enough to keep his attention. Definitely not in a van the whole time. Would recommend again to families who want to see Hilo and the volcanoes in one day.
