Once-in-a-lifetime hiking experience on the Big Island of Hawaii
Kuzo,Mar 21, 2026
- Review from Tripadvisor
5.00Hiking with Backroad Adventures was hands-down the highlight of my trip to the Big Island. Shawn and Lisa were incredibly attentive and responsive to all of my questions, even before I officialy booked my tours. I joined them for both the Pololū Valley hike and the In-depth tour of Hawaiʻi Volcanoes National Park, and both were exceptional. My tours were well-organized, thoughtfully planned, educational and genuinely fun. Shawn's passion for Hawaiian ecology, especially native plants and birds, really stood out and added so much depth to the experience. I learned so much about the island's landscape, history, and cultural significance. What impressed me most was their flexibility and professionalism. Kīlauea erupted the day before our Volcanoes National Park tour, and they didn’t miss a beat. They kept me well-informed about the park’s status and seamlessly adapted the itinerary to ensure the day was still unique, safe, and memorable. An added bonus: they share photos from the hike digitally for your personal use, which is such a thoughtful touch and a great way to relive the experience. If you’re visiting the Big Island and want a curated, meaningful experience, I cannot recommend Backroad Adventures enough.
