See volcanic activity, cascading waterfalls, and lush rainforests. From the Hilo Airport Helipad we’ll fly past massive Mauna Kea and Mauna Loa mountains to the Kilauea Volcano System – the most active volcano on Earth today. On this tour you’ll see everything that you see on the Volcano Safari PLUS go on to see spectacular waterfalls on the upper Wailuku River, and view the Hilo Bayfront**.
Ascend from the Helipad at the Hilo Airport and soar directly to the Kilauea Volcanic System to view the current activity, which may include cinder cones with lava lakes, skylights and lava flows entering the ocean that would create glassy black sand beaches. Observe where some of the homes were destroyed by lava in the Royal Gardens and Kalapana Districts. View the Lava Tree Forrest and the waterfalls among the Wailuku River and Hilo Bay front before returning to the Hilo Airport.
