Be shown the absolute best highlights of Hawaii Volcanoes National Park by our experienced local tour guide. She'll share with you the Hawaiian legends, history and geology as you are driven around the crater rim and given the opportunity to stroll along the steam vents, peer down Halema'uma'u and Kilauea Iki Craters, see the amazing Sulfur Banks and enjoy lunch at historic Volcano House. We'll do the driving and all you have to do is be amazed by one of the world's most active volcanoes!
