Big Island : Vulcani delle Hawaii, Cascate e Avventura in Hilo

The tour was Amazing! Tour guide was friendly, funny, and personable. Made us feel like family and we had a great time! We didn’t want it to end!!

I sadly cannot remember our tour guides name but he is an absolutely delightful owner and operator and genuinely knowledgeable about the island (his home) and the National Volcano Park. Have visited many islands over the years while cruising and absolutely one of the best tours we have ever experienced! it was not a "passing shower" Hawaiian kind of day! it was a torrential down pour all 7-8 hours but he had umbrellas and ponchos and snacks and drinks. He made it fun though it was hard at times going between soaked and dripping and steamed. Very inclusive, kind and attentive. Go help this wonderful young man grow his business and care for his family and support small local! great value for dollars spent!

Such an amazing tour! Aaron was truly a wonderful guide who made sure everyone was having a great time. He knew the national park and the people there well and was able to get us all the best views of the lava fountain even though it was unusually busy at the park causing more traffic than if the lava wasn’t spewing. He had such a great personality and could make friends with anyone. Definitely evident by him having friends at every stop we visited. If we could give him a higher review we absolutely would.

This Hilo experience was awesome. We had a fantastic time. Aaron was a fabulous guide. He was personable and knowledgeable. He was able to connect with each person in the tour group. We had great day in Hilo.

The best tour we took entire vacation. Aaron was the best tour guide. You can tell he really loves his island and wants to show it off

Very knowledgeable tour guide. Loved the stories that he told about ancient Hawaii as well as current history. He made adjustments to the tour as needed. Fair warning for those on the cruise, he WILL wait for you but disembarking off the Spirit may take longer than you expect but this tour was worth it.

Aaron is incredibly knowledgeable and friendly! Every stop was interesting, and we spent just the right amount of time at each. We were able to visit many points of interest and hear the stories and history behind them. The ride was comfortable, he even offered local snacks and drinks throughout. Highly recommend Aaron and this tour!

I cannot say enough good things about Aaron other than he is amazing! Super funny and informative! Very attentive and easy to talk with on the ride. He answered any and all questions with a smile and good natured humor. He truly made an effort to make us all feel the Aloha spirit and like ohana while on board! This company might be just starting, but it delivered history, culture, and insight from a true Hilo native! If you’re looking to make memories and experience Hilo like a local, I HIGHLY recommend this tour! Mahalo nui loa Aaron!

Aaron with Pualena Tours was amazing! They are local to Hilo and knew all the history as well as the local spots and back roads. He took us to volcano spots we had never been too on other tours! He also gave us ideas where to eat in the Hilo Farmers Market, as well as found the best local shop for snow cones (Ice Shave) for the kids at the end. We can't wait to do another tour with him. Well worth it!
