Big Island Private Tours, Cruise Excursions & Private Transportation

This was an amazing experience from start to finish. Rae insured comfortability & and maximizing our time was his top priority in navigating us throughout the island. I 100 percent recommend him to anyone if you want laughs, education on the island history, and just an overall happy moment with great memories for loved ones.

Had Rae as a tour guide for Hilo and Kona. He was fabulous ❤️. Very knowledgeable and accommodating both days. Not to mention patient with the 10 of us! Highly advise booking him and his tours.

Rae is the type of tour guide that becomes family! Native to this area, he has information no other tour guide could. We saw so much, and learned so much! It was like we had come to visit a long lost cousin! I’ll definitely go back to Florida and pass out his number to everyone even thinking of visiting Hawaii.

We had such a wonderful day! Rae is so knowledgeable and a lot of fun, very personable! We got to see the volcano doing it's thing...amazing! Thank you for a memorable day!

Our family went on the tour with Rae and had the BEST time! Not only did he give us tons of info about the big island but he took us to all the best spots, we even got lucky enough to see the volcano erupt. Rae also had snacks and drinks for our whole crew! He kept it fun and interesting even for the littles we had on board. 10/10!

Ray is very knowledgeable, attentive, and up beat tour guide. He has a new clean van with a cold a/c for those hot days.

You won’t find a better tour guide than Rae on the island! His love of the island comes through all his stories and he’s so incredibly knowledgeable. His van was excellent and he provided amazing service. We were a large group of 11 and he never rushed us through stops and gave us lots of options as the day went along. He was a great person to spend the day with and we felt very taken care of. We got to see so much of the island in one day! I would recommend his services to anyone.

What a way to spend our last day on the big island. Rae did an amazing job showing us all over the island. Literally took us in a completely circle around!! We saw it all and he was so patient and kind to our group of 11 people! Rainbow Waterfall ✅ Coffee farm ✅ Painted church ✅ Volcano house for lunch ✅ Volcano national park ✅ Black sand beach with sea turtles ✅ And so much more too!! Thank you Rae for the BEST day!!!

Within the first 10 minutes of meeting Ray, I knew we were going to have a great day - and I was right!!! We spent an entire day traversing the Big Island, seeing the most wonderful local spots, including: a coffee farm where we took a “brew class”, scenic lookout points, Volcano National Park, The Painted Church, a drive through downtown Hilo and a stop at Rainbow Falls. Ray knew all of the details about every stop and his 15 passenger Sprinter Van was very clean and very comfortable. Most importantly, he was completely invested in making sure we had the absolute best day. Do yourself a favor and book Hawaii Island Insider Tours. Ask for Ray, you won’t be sorry!!!
