Our tour guide was very knowledgeable regarding formation of volcanic activity, astronomy, the history of the island and the beliefs of the Indigenous population. The Rainbow Falls, caverns and stargazing were all beautiful and particularly interesting given the information provided prior. Highly recommend!

Stargazing experience was pretty enjoyable. Nearly every guest on the tour initially believed we would go to the Maunakea summit, I believe since the tour states Mauna Kea in its name but does not specify what part of the mountain. It was likely already too late to get a refund. Two people exited the tour very early on after learning this when the tour van started driving off. The highest you go is at the Mauna Kea park. Keep this in mind when booking, as this is a costly experience.

This tour is a great way to see some major attractions in Hilo: Rainbow Falls, Boiling Pots, and Kaumana Cave, while also taking you up Mauna Kea to stargaze. Our tour guide, Krystal, made our experience absolutely out of this world! She is full of energy and knew so much about the local flora and fauna, culture, and astronomy. Thank you so much for an amazing experience.
