Evening Volcano Explorer Tour in Hilo, Hawaii

Discover the volcanic wonders of Hilo with KapohoKine Adventures on the Evening Volcano Explorer tour. Begin with a scenic drive through Hilo town and along the historic waterfront before visiting the old fishing village of Kalapana, destroyed by lava flows. Your National Park Service certified guide provides detailed narration on the volcanology, geology, and history of Kilauea volcano as you explore the area.

Hike across the lava flow to the new black sand beach and visit the Star of the Sea Painted Church, a historic site moved twice to protect it from lava. Continue to Hawaii Volcanoes National Park to see the Kilauea Visitor’s Center, Kilauea Iki Crater Overlook, and Steaming Bluffs. The tour includes stops at Volcano House for views of Kilauea Caldera and hikes to volcanic features created by the 2018 eruption.
