Bay View Farm

Travel south into Kona coffee country for the first stop at Bay View Farm, a working 24 acre coffee farm nestled on the slopes of Mauna Loa Volcano just above beautiful Kealakekua Bay and known for the best Kona coffee since 1984. Here you’ll see coffee growing on the trees and learn about the various steps and processes in making coffee, all of which happen right here on the farm. You’ll sample Kona Coffee at a gorgeous overlook with stunning views of Kealakekua Bay and the monument to Captain Cook standing on the only sliver of British land in the United States.

Admission Included

Punalu'u Black Sand beach

The adventure continues as you head through the South Kona and Ka’u Districts. Stunning views, alternating between stark lava flows and Hawaiian dry forest, are visible through the huge picture windows of your tour vehicle. We stop briefly at picturesque Punalu’u Black Sand Beach. Lined with swaying coconut palm trees, this is one of the best black sand beaches on the island. Stroll along the beach and look for honu (Green Hawaiian Sea Turtles) feeding just offshore or sun-worshipping on the sand

Hawaii Volcanoes National Park

An amazing overview of the Big Island in one day. Very well planned with stops for coffee, snacks, lunch & dinner. Beautiful scenic overlooks of the ocean, Rainbow Falls & Volcano National Park!

Ultimate Circle Island Explorer our tour/driver guide Tori was excellent! Very informative. Took us off the beaten track to see different waterfalls. Right on with our meals. And very sweet, accommodating with our needs.

We had an excellent day exploring the big island with Tory as our tour guide. She was very knowledgeable about the islands history and all the sites. We definitely learnt a few fun facts along the way. She took us to some great places and gave us fantastic tips. We did the coffee farm, bakery, black sand beach, volcano, steam vents, waterfall, big island candies and a valley with the steepest road in the USA. A very enjoyable day and would highly recommend.

We’ve done full day tours on the other islands but this one has become our favourite. Marcus, our guide, picked us up at our hotel in a newer very clean van. He shared a lot of history and interesting information as we made our way around the island. Seeing the black sand beach for the first time was definitely a highlight. The lunch stop was excellent with burgers and sandwiches along with the unique doughnut-like pastry which satisfied everyone’s sweet tooth. We thoroughly enjoyed each of our stops which were just the right length to see the location and take a bathroom break, if required. Volcano National Park was fascinating. The beauty of the Rainbow Falls is also amazing. Remember to bring your camera. Finally, the meals provided were a high quality and delicious. There was no comparison in taste and quantity to meals we’ve had provided on our previous tours. We highly recommend both this tour and Marcus as a guide!

Perfect Way to Tour the Island!! Our family of 4 did this tour just a few days after we arrived (daughters 15 and 9). It was a great way to explore and see areas that we might want to go back to while we there. We were on the sprinter van with our guide, Marcus, and 6 other friendly people. Marcus was extremely knowledgeable and told us many interesting things about the island and the places we visited. The stops were all unique, interesting and beautiful! The tour provided water, food and snacks. We were worried our 9 year old would be bored, but she loved the day! Would highly recommend booking this tour!

Our tour guide Robbie shared so much about her heritage us, stories and general knowledge keeping us entertained all day. The coffee farm was a great way to start the day, the waterfalls were beautiful and the Volcano National Park was spectacular. We would recommend this trip to anyone who wants to see a bit of everything.
