Sit amongst the many coffee trees and learn about harvesting, drying and roasting coffee at one of Kona's most iconic and historic coffee farms. This is pure Kona coffee! Greenwell Farms' award-winning coffee is grown in the heart of the Big Island and is handpicked at peak ripeness for rich flavor. They carefully select their coffee beans to ensure that each batch is top quality. From bold to mild, classic to flavored, they have a roast for every coffee lover. Not a coffee drinker? No problem!

Located at the Southernmost point in the United States, this bakery is a must-visit location. "Welcoming over 200,000 visitors from near and far every year, our bake shop is the most visited bakery in the state of Hawaiʻi. Located on Mamalahoa Highway (Route 11) in the town of Na‘alehu, midway between Kailua-Kona and Volcanoes National Park, our visitor center is a must-stop! You know you’re close when you smell the sweet aroma of our world-famous sweet bread, malasadas, and baked goods."

Turtles! This iconic location on the southern tip of the Big Island is home to the most recognized black sand beach anywhere on Hawaii Island. The beach has black sand made of basalt and created by lava flowing into the ocean which explodes as it reaches the ocean and cools. This volcanic activity is in the Hawaiʻi Volcanoes National Park. Punaluʻu is frequented by endangered hawksbill and green turtles, which can often be seen basking on the black sand.

We've made it! Making a straight line from Punalu'u Black Sand Beach, we head to the summit of Kilauea to take in the enormity of the giant crater, Halemaumau! Witness the stunning views of a crater that experienced thousands of earthquakes, many explosive rockfalls and the draining of Kilauea Caldera’s gigantic lava lake. Kailani Tours’ guides will provide an intimate behind-the-scenes tour of the park that guests simply cannot experience on their own. These park-certified guides will provide the ultimate guest experience as they show off their favorite locations of the park.

Enjoy a three course meal while we wait for the sun to go down over the volcano. Relax and enjoy a restaurant dinner unlike any other tour offering in Volcano Village. "Historic Kilauea Lodge and Restaurant, built as a YMCA camp in 1938, now serves the Volcano community as a popular hotel for lodging, dining and special events. The Lodge offers a peaceful rainforest retreat as well as an award-winning restaurant and on-site group gathering facility."

Enjoy the eruption from a safe distance at Halemaumau Crater! Take in the glow of the eruption that began in late 2020. Sip hot beverages and take pictures of an extraordinary eruption from Kilauea Overlook. This is what everybody comes for - the eruption of Kilauea Volcano!

Drive along Saddle Road back towards your hotel. Weather permitting, this is the opportunity to catch a glimpse of the incredible starry skies available above the clouds.
