The trip was well organized and made the most of the time available. Debra was very knowledgeable and had a great, enthusiastic attitude that helped everyone enjoy the trip. Jason also added a tremendous amount of information and was a pleasure to have along. We all learned a lot as well as seeing some beautiful locations. Highly recommended!

We had a very enjoyable day with an excellent, friendly guide. I would have liked to hike more in the park, but we did see Kilauea after its recent eruption, saw a pit crater, walked through the lava tube, and had lunch out on the pahoehoe (smooth lava rock). The waterfall was just OK--it was pretty and gave us a break from the bus. The last stop at the cacao farm was very interesting, and included little samples of different types of chocolate!

We had an amazing trip with Willie! He was so knowledgeable and friendly. We learned things that we never would have known if we had gone to the park on our own. He took us to different sites in the park and then we did the chocolate farm and the Falls park. The chocolate farm was a great experience! We learned about the whole process. Highly recommend this tour and this company!!

We had such a great time exploring Volcanoes National Park with Hawaii Forest & Trail. Our guide, Mel, was fantastic—super knowledgeable, easy to talk to, and made us feel totally comfortable. It was just us and one other family, and she really made it feel like we were all on a trip together, not just a tour. Mel was so attentive and genuinely passionate about what she does. We didn’t want the day to end. Would absolutely recommend this experience!
