Scott was an incredible guide. We saw so much, we learned so much. He timed things perfectly, took care of everything, helped us avoid lines and confusion, and he was so knowledgeable. It was a great day and we made some life-long memories!

We had a private tour with Scott, who is a wonderful guide. I told him he reminded me of Sammy Hagar. Unfortunately, the volcano stopped erupting the day before we got there, but that did not diminish Scott's love of what he does. We went there and saw the amazing volcano-we did see steam rising from the crater. He is so knowledgeable and passionate about the island and the people and the energy. He makes the day a total enjoyable outing and you will not be sorry if you book this tour.Aloha!! Scott from the volcano Van was awesome with his geeky knowledge of volcanos.
