Description
Begin your afternoon tour in Hilo (right at the port or across the small bay at Reeds Bay parking lot) and head to a seaside Japanese garden. Continue to hidden beaches and waterfalls enjoyed by island locals, drive through a picturesque jungle, and stop for a leisurely walk through a tropical rainforest to world-renowned 'Akaka Falls (some steps on the paved trail).
Enjoy Hilo's own Big Island Candies, and then have some fun in the sun on the Big Island's unique black sand beaches. Time permitting, take a quick dip amongst the most colorful sea life on the planet, while your guide takes less adventurous guests to nearby coves often teeming with sea turtles.
Bring your towel, swimsuit, and underwater camera if you packed them, as your premium-level van has plenty of storage space.
The entire afternoon tour is one continuous photo-op, with the last stop only 5 minutes from the harbor, assuring cruisers a timely 'All Aboard' return (i.e., more than 30 minutes before departure). Consider bundling our BigHawaiiTours morning volcano/lava tour for savings for an all-day, memorable experience that makes the most of your limited time in Hilo (when Kilauea is erupting, it's a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, so don't miss our morning tour).
