| The moment you step aboard our deluxe SUV vehicle, you will begin the ultimate Hawaiian adventure. Your exhilarating volcano adventure begins with an excursion to the picturesque region of Puna, located on the Big Island of Hawaii's breathtaking southeast coast. Ever since 1983, when the Kilauea Volcano first erupted, the landscape has been forever changed. Experience one of the most dramatic and spectacular events of nature as you view the aftermath of the volcano's steaming lava flows. As you embark upon your once in a lifetime journey, your knowledgeable tour guide will entertain you with an astounding presentation of the Kilauea eruption. You will hear first hand accounts of life in Kalapana, Puna from former residents who witnessed the destruction of the mighty volcano as lava engulfed their houses and communities just a few years ago. After the vivid presentation your guided tour will visit the site of what was once the world's most beautiful black sand beach but is now buried below 75 feet of lava. Experience the recently cooled lava flow and actually feel a warm heat under your feet!
Next you will travel to the world famous Mackenzie State Park to view the breathtaking cliffs of lava that majestically tower over the brilliant blue Pacific Ocean. Travel to a real working macadamia nut and honey farm to enjoy your delicious picnic style deli lunch and feel the Hawaiian breeze.
