Kohala Coast

Our knowledgeable, friendly guide, Taro, did a great job informing us about Native Hawaiian history and local culture as he led us to several lovely waterfalls. The highlight was the breathtaking outdoor spot where we ate our packed lunches. It was an awesome tour!

We had the nicest, handsome tour guide. Rob took us to all the waterfalls and the extra waterfall inside the cave. Rob was also knowledgeable about the trail. The water view from the picnic area was phenomenal. I would recommend this tour if you visit Kona.

Excellent snorkel trip. Friendly and knowledgeable crew. A great experience. We were lucky enough to have a pod of dolphins swim alongside the boat for an extended period, and appreciated the impromptu lesson about dolphins that we received from the crew.

The crew was awesome really great group of guys. Captain awesome Mike awesome Kai too. Fun snorkel even with weather. Crystal cove beautiful.

This was a fun trip. Me and my husband are from Colorado so we love to hike. Our trail leader was Mark and he's was very knowledgeable about the history of the island. We took a helicopter ride of some of the waterfalls that come off the north end of the island the day after this trip and it just pulled everything together. Definitely a memorable trip.

The actual hike, swim at the last waterfall and the view at lunch. Mike our driver was superb with all his historical knowledge. We were blessed with a great group as well.

Mike was a great tour guide. Awesome family day! The waterfall was beautiful and it was a fun swim. Kids had a fun time.

Taking this helicopter tour was one of the best decisions I've made in a very long time. I love experiencing as much as I can about new destinations I travel to, their culture, history, geography, etc. With the helicopter tour you see the island in ways you can't see with ground tours or trekking on your own. With a knowledgeable and easy-going pilot makes the experience better. It allows for an excursion that is unequal and memorable that will stay with you. I was able to see the lava bursts which is a once-in-a-lifetime experience that I'll never forget. Then add the jaw dropping views of the coast makes this excursion a must for travelers to the island. I've already told my friends about it.

Great experience: they take you up north to a great snorkeling spot. They are super helpful and kind. Alcohol, snacks and sandwiches. Really fun.

We had a great trip with Hawaii Forest and Trail to the North Side of the Big Island. John and Travis were outstanding. John provided tons of information about the geological history of the island on the quick one hour drive before guiding us along a relatively easy hike (with some slick terrain) filled with great details about the vegetation and Hawaiian legends on our way through the forest to some beautiful private waterfalls. Travis shared his knowledge of the locals and all of the the great places to see and eat. These guys made a great team and really made this tour a perfect beginning to our Big Island adventure. Thanks so much!

Mike is an excellent tour guide, very personable and knowledgeable. The spot for lunch was breathtaking, the little town for coffee was really cute and the hike was beautiful. I could have used a little more hiking, but we hike quite often so could have gone further and longer.

Captain Will and his team Gregory and Ty were outstanding. Gregory got in the water with the guest and explained what we were seeing and was teaching us about the water environment we were snorkeling in. The boat, food and stories were top notch so we booked another tour within the same week. I would highly recommend based on the crew’s experience and the ease of getting in and out of the water and the excellent condition of the gear they provided us to use. Maholo Laura
