they dont stop at the sign/marker for pic, drop you off and pick up for stamp cancel

The stops and timing were good. I would have rated them 5 except for these items. They did not stop at the marker/sign of the park for pictures. If you are going to get stamps cancelled for NPS passport and buy souvenirs at the visitors center forget about it, they drop us off and left. The driver did not tell us that we can buy souvenirs at the hotels where it is one of the stops. Another thing , they dont ask if you have a park pass, which I assume that the entrance fee was included in the total fee. You are not asked about entrance fee when booking. There were a few people that have senior passes (a total of 6 in this trip inc one for each for me and my wife). I guess for a tour, the vehicle is $30.00 which cover 14 passengers inc driver

We booked the volcano...

We booked the volcano tour with Wasabi Tours and came away feeling like we'd experienced the best of what the Big Island has to offer in a single day. Much of that credit goes to our guide, Felix. Felix's passion for his work was genuine and contagious. He didn't just point out the sights. He brought them to life with deep knowledge of the island's history, geology, and culture, along with thoughtful insight into current events affecting the island and its communities. His storytelling made every stop more meaningful, and it was clear he truly loves sharing his home with visitors. With a hurricane approaching, parts of the itinerary had to be adjusted. Wasabi Tours handled it with real professionalism and care. They kept us informed, made sound decisions with our safety in mind, and reworked the logistics so smoothly that we never felt we missed out. That kind of thoughtful planning under pressure says a lot about the company. We would highly recommend both Felix and Wasabi Tours to anyone visiting the Big Island. If you get the chance to tour with Felix, take it!

Jadon was a Superb Tour Guide

Jason was an excellent guide. He went above and beyond to share a lot about Hawaii history and culture, even beyond what we were seeing. He also knew a lot about the geology of the volcanos.

Wonderful!!

Long day—with extreme temperature changes and elevations but worth it! Jason was a great guide. He was most concerned with the quality of our experience and was also a wealth of knowledge.

Great guide, great food, and an unforgettable day

We had a great time on the Small Group Big Island Twilight Volcano and Stargazing Tour with Wasabi Tours Hawaii. Jason was a fantastic guide who shared lots of interesting information and took us to a few extra spots. It is a long day, so be ready for a full-day trip. Lunch and dinner were both really tasty.
