The day we were there it was windy and rainy. So be prepared. We were told this island gets more rain than all the others combined. We ended up taking the "zip line through paradise" tour. Overall it was a good tour with pickup and drop off at the ship. Light snack half way through the course and very knowledgeable and entertaining guides. If you want to video I strongly suggest using a go pro though. Trying to do this one handed like I did was extremely strenuous. The equipment was all top shelf and they do provide rain gear if needed. The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars is I felt it was hard to control which direction I was facing. Even though I would do what they told me to do I always came in backwards. I also think it was a bit on the pricey side, but the beauty is unmatched anywhere.

Nice, but cloudy and a hard to do much from the ship without an excursion.

We rented a car and went to the Volcanoes National Park (take your senior pass), the Akaka Falls State Park and the Botanical Gardens. Awesome day. Wish we had been at this port longer.

"Just OK." Did a shore excursion to the Volcanoes National Park & then to the Orchid Garden Farm. The Volcanoes Park was great and the Orchid Farm was fair.

Volcanoes National Park was spectacular, but we didn't get to spend enough time there.
