So if you don’t want to be talked about behind your back by the overweight kid from Stranger Things, be sure to be on your Ps and Qs.”

Review of Hilo’s six-hour volcano safari, with lava caves, black-sand beaches, lava fields, guides, price, tips, and practical drawbacks.

Lava still hot enough to create steam and lava caves that can literally swallow light yet you can walk into it and not see your own hand in front of you. Our guide has lived on the Island for many years and knows the history, customs and watch outs of the land. Come prepared with good walking shoes. It is well worth the time and energy”
