What to expect

Discover the beauty of Hawaii's Big Island with your favorite GPS-audio tour narrator guiding you to must-see viewpoints, sharing fascinating stories, tips, and directions along the way. Whether you follow the suggested itineraries or create your own half, full, or multi-day sightseeing adventures, this tour ensures you won't miss a thing on this stunning island.

The Big Island is renowned for its diverse landscapes, from massive volcanoes and black-sand beaches to lush valleys and scenic coastlines. Highlights include Volcanoes National Park, the awe-inspiring Chain of Craters Road, and the famous Thurston Lava Tube. Don't miss the breathtaking views along the Hamakua Coast, the historic Kona Coffee Coast, and the serene valleys of Waipio and Pololu. You'll also visit iconic landmarks like Akaka Falls, the Place of Refuge, and the Kamehameha Statue.

In Volcanoes National Park, explore the remnants of past eruptions, hike the Devastation Trail, and take in the magnificent Halema'uma'u Crater. This full-day adventure is a must for anyone visiting the island. For a grand tour, take the Island Circle route, navigating the tropical Hamakua Coast and exploring Hilo's charming surroundings.

For a shorter but equally memorable trip, drive the Kohala North Loop from Kona to Hawi, with stunning beaches, views of Maui, and the island's arid yet dramatic northern coast. You'll experience the Big Island's mix of old Hawaii and modern life.
