Our tour guide was Derek Stuart, and he was amazing! He picked us up at a campground, took us on an amazing tour, and conveniently dropped us off at the airport. He was very knowledgeable about the island and knew the answers to all of our questions. He gave us a tour that fit our wants and needs, taking us to places unknown to most tourists. It was a very authentic experience. Thanks Derek!

The waterfall tour was truly an astonishing experience. Our tour guide, Derek, was unparalleled in many ways. First, the care he has for his guests is evident in the way he treats everyone. He made sure we all had what we needed, always made sure we were comfortable and that we were having a great time. He took pictures for groups, gave personal recommendations for restaurants and other activities/ tours, and gave us potent of opportunities for bathroom breaks. Second, his knowledge of the history of the island is beyond anything we could have hoped for. We learned so much from Derek, even on the drives between stops! Third, he went out of his way to accommodate everyone in what we wanted to do for the day. For example, we all got to decide whether we stopped at a beautiful fruit stand along the way; and who would do no to that?! Besides how great Derek was, the entire day was astounding. We experienced so many breathtaking views, got up close with some truly remarkable plant life and had the opportunity to get once in a lifetime photos! I would recommend this excursion to anyone looking to get outdoors and enjoy some breathtaking sights.

The waterfall adventure was an amazing experience. Derek was lovely! A kind and generous person indeed. He is very well informed on the history of the island and pointed out many things we wouldn’t even think to ask about. He went out of his way to make sure everyone was happy and comfortable and even made some suggestions on where we could get dinner afterward. Aside from Derek’s amazing tour guide, the trip itself was breathtaking. Not only did we see some amazing waterfalls but we also saw a diverse array of plant and animal life. I would definitely recommend this trip to anyone looking for a day spent in good company and awe inspiring views.

This tour was absolutely incredible and so was our tour guide Drew!!! I went with my family and we all couldn’t be more pleased with our overall experience. We saw the whole island in a group of 13 and it was such a magical day, leaving not a single stone unturned! I don’t have a single complaint! We saw so many beautiful views and waterfalls and the botanical gardens which was my personal favorite as well as much more. We had a lovely lunch and Drew put so much effort into making sure we were all comfortable and enjoying ourselves though out the entire journey. He was so attentive and knowledgeable about everything on the island. He absolutely went above and beyond to make it so special for each and every one in the group. We were picked up and dropped off at our hotel which was so convenient and the van was comfortable and well air conditioned. I would definitely recommend this tour to anyone who’s visiting the Big Island of Hawaii. 11 out of 10!!!
