Back from our Hawaiian cruise, the best day was spent in the company of Tyler of Akamai tours, a brilliant, knowledgeable and fun guide, he obviously loves Hawaii and and he passed his knowledge and love of the island onto us. It's a cheap price to pay for a brilliant private tour, if you're visiting the island don't consider using... More

Just back from Hawaiian cruise. One of the best memories of the whole trip was the day that we spent with Tyler Ford of Akamai Adventure Tours at the end of April. Tyler was friendly and incredibly knowledgeable about just about anything of interest. He was enthusiastic and his love for Hawaii was obvious. There was a loosely planned itinerary... More

My group of 15 family and friends recently toured the hawaiian islands on the Pride of America. Being such a large group we decided to source a private tour of Hilo. Our tour was booked with MaryLou's Big Island Tours, who was reccommended to us by previous travellers. (See their review separately). Hayley was asked by them to drive one... More

Tyler & Hayley created a tour based on our requests. We had my two sons (12 &15) and Tyler kept them busy climbing and learning island lore and facts. We saw rainforests, fields of lava rock, the ocean, and the glow of a lava crater. All in one day! These guys will not disappoint. I highly recommend them!

We look forward to our next trip to the... More

"I'm going to just come out and say it: Akamai Adventures took us on a magical, tropical tour! My husband and I highly recommend this company. We cannot express our gratitude enough for the education we received from the very informative crew. You not only go on an adventure of a lifetime, but you learn all about the history, folklore...
