“We had an excellent day with Hunter. His descriptions on the tour were excellent and relevant with good content. The glaciers and history with future projections on continued recession was interesting and in keeping with our New Zealand glaciers. The visit to the Conservation Park was especially good and the draw card for this trip. Seeing animals from the wild, why they were there being protected and seeing them in open environments which try to mimic their wildlife environment. A wonderful day. Thank you”

Viator sent us detailed information about where and how to meet our driver, from C Big Island Tours, in advance, which was very helpful. On this excursion, we first drove to Richardson Park, a beautiful black sand beach park. From there, we went to see the beautiful Rainbow Falls (but no rainbow!). Next we stopped at the Mauna Loa macadamia nut farm, where we were able to shop and eat lunch (for purchase). (The sandwiches are "so-so".) Macadamia nut merchandise was priced below what we saw in other retail outlets on the islands, so buy…”

It’s a long day but well worth it!”
