Hilo
KILAUEA VOLCANO HIKING ADVENTURE SHORE
EXCURSION
$115 Per Person
This trip takes you to Kilauea Volcano, the
source of creation of the Hawaiian Islands. Incredibly enough, the land
you cross gets younger as the air-conditioned van climbs from the Port
of Hilo to the 4,000 foot summit of Kilauea Volcano and Hawaii Volcanoes
National Park. Here, new land is brought from the earth's interior to
the surface. This is a rare and unforgettable experience in a unique
environment.
In the park, your naturalist guide will provide you with details about
the volcanic activity, the surrounding plants and the history of humans
living in this archaic area. In addition, your guide will explain the
cultural significance of the area and recite ancient legends of Pele,
the fire goddess. You will soon learn Kilauea remains a sacred place for
many Hawaiians.
Immersed in the terrain and flora of Kilauea Volcano, you’ll hike
through lava fields, rainforest, a lava tube, and near steam vents. When
flowing lava is accessible you will get as close as safely possible.
Lunch, bottled water and all gear and accessories are provided.
