Don’t book this tour, the company is a scam. No one ever picked us up or answered their phones. We lost a whole day of activities

Teri_M

They never picked us up!!! Have requested a refund! Their online information says they are temporarily closed! Phone is not working but aviator booked us on a tour with them! Waiting for my refund!!!

Celest_P

Didn't get to go because the company tour driver didn't show up, nor contact us to let us know they were not coming. We waited and waited without any word. Then once again, we rented a vehicle. This is the second day this company left us stranded . The employees at the cruise do ck had not even heard of the company! Don't use!!!! Not reliable

Awesome private tour. Got to experience the ancient grounds of Kamehameha, waterfalls of all kinds, black sand beaches, and appreciate the overall beauty of the Big Island. Even though going into Waipio Valley isn’t allowed anymore to tourists we were able to get photos at the overlook. We also stopped at a farmers market in Hilo where I bought a shell lei and some fresh fruit for the hotel room. Stopped for a malasada as well.

My wife and I had an amazing time on the tour. Our guide Val did an incredible job showing us sites in the Hamakua coast that we would have missed if we had gone on our own. He was very knowledgeable and also flexible in asapting the itinerary based on what we wanted to see. We would definitely recommend.

Val was a great and informative tour guide. Stopped at additional waterfalls that weren’t even mentioned in the tour description. Went to a farmers market and got some fresh fruit for our hotel room. Even though going into Waipio valley is now blocked we could still get pictures at the overlook. Malasadas were delicious! Great that it was private for myself and my fiancée.

Rosemarie_M

Val was the best guide, bringing the Hawaiian culture to life for us with his knowledge and Aloha spirit. From history to local sweet spots, we never lacked for conversation or a yummy treat (Malasadas!) Val kept us filled. Also, we have mobility challenges. Val took great care of us; never making us feel as if we were a burden. It was a wonderful day! Thank you Val! Rosie and Bob

Christine_J

Very poorly organized and asked for tip. Didn’t even stop for lunch until asked for it at 3. Appreciate the enthusiasm of the person but I don’t think the trip was worth the money. Only water is included in the trip.
