Our most active experience – the Volcano Hiking Adventure! Join us on our most exploratory volcano adventure. Journey over Saddle Road, take a short walk up a cinder cone before dropping down Kaumana Caves in Hilo. Leaving Hilo, trek into Hawaii Volcanoes National Park at Kilauea. At the summit, we’ll check out a few of the “hot” spots at Kilauea Caldera, the steam vents at the rim, and the visitor center. We’ll fuel up with a quick deli-style lunch before we discover Chain of Craters Road, hike Kilauea Iki, and take in the sights at Holei Sea Arch. Before our return over Saddle Road, take in the splendor of Rainbow Falls and relax after an incredible day at Hawaii Volcanoes National Park.
