A MUST DO!!! - This tour was more than amazing and absolutely a must do. Our guide Shawn was awesome. He told us so much about the Island of Kona and each of the many attractions we stopped at. Everything we did was done at our pace and not rushed through so that we could enjoy and take in everything we were seeing. Would definitely recommend this tour.

A hui hou - Aloha - We had an amazing time with Shawn. The communication before, during and after the day was what you would expect from a top tour company. He picked us up from our property and his car was comfortable for the 6 of us. He was very friendly and knowledgeable of the island. We went on the 12+ hr full Island tour and this was beyond amazing. Shawn stopped to point out great places for photos and things to see far and away from the other tours and tourists. Starting with the Kona Coffee farm (we love coffee Kona Coffee and we got some amazing blends that we took home with us), to the Bakery, Black Sand Beach, Volcano National Park and so much more. Shawn accommodated us above and beyond what we would expect as he adapted to all of the unique personalities we had to offer on this September day. We ate lunch that was picked up from the bakery and then off to some Waterfalls. The second to last stop was to the Waipio Valley just in time for sunset - unbelievable views! We were then treated to a great dinner above all expectations and then delivered back to our property safely. The All Inclusive Big Island Circle Tour exceeded our expectations and delivered what we had hoped. Big Island Backroad Adventures is a must for what ever you would like to experience on the Big Island. - Mahalo Nui Loa Shawn

100% would do again! - 10/10! Shawn was amazing!!! We learned all about the island and felt like we got to see it all! Meals were delicious and Shawn was prepared for everything. We kept a good pace and got to see so much of the island. He took pictures, gave us tips for dining and was great with our kids. We learned so much and enjoyed the waterfalls, sunset, black sand beach, Volcanos national park and more. This would our favorite tour of the island and if it is your first time to Hawaii I could not recommend this tour more!

Incredible day! - Shawn was an incredible guide who listened to what we wanted and provided so much information about the sights and experiences we had. The vehicle was super comfortable, and the time we spent driving was never boring thanks to the good conversation and the beautiful views. We would absolutely recommend this experience, and I’m sure the other tours they offer are just as awesome!
