My wife and I took the Big Island Grand Circle Island Tour with Kona Chris as our guide. I can't imagine a better way to take in the Big Island while at the same time enjoying the humor and knowledge of our guide. 10 out of 10 recommend.

Aaron provided great narration all day. A comprehensive and well planned tour. Could not have been better. A great opportunity to see many of the island’s highlights without a car
