About your tour:
This private Hawaiʻi volcano and helicopter experience offers a rare chance to immerse yourself in the power of the islands’ only active volcano from both sky and land—all in one unforgettable day. Departing from Maui, you’ll journey to the Big Island for a combination of scenic flightseeing and guided exploration that showcases Hawaiʻi Volcanoes National Park and Kīlauea in dramatic detail.
Your adventure begins with an aerial tour over the vast summit region and rugged lava fields of Kīlauea. From the helicopter, you’ll trace the paths of past and recent flows, peer into volcanic features that can’t be safely accessed on foot, and gain a sweeping perspective on how this dynamic volcano continues to reshape the landscape.
After landing, an expert local guide will lead you on a ground tour through key viewpoints and sites inside Hawaiʻi Volcanoes National Park. You’ll learn how the island was formed, hear the stories tied to Pele and the volcano, and see firsthand the stark beauty of craters, steam vents, and hardened lava fields.
Experiencing Hawaiʻi’s only active volcano from both above and on the ground is a truly unique opportunity and one that serious travelers, photographers, and nature lovers won’t want to miss. Because this is an exclusive, small-capacity tour, seats are extremely limited and tend to fill quickly—early booking is strongly recommended.
