Before your next trip to the Big Island, make sure you look for Hawaii tours that will offer you the best photo opportunities.
Home to a wide variety of natural beauty and ecological wonders, the Big Island is larger than all the other Hawaiian islands combined. Whether you stay for one day or ten, you can keep busy for the duration of your trip.

Here’s a list of 3 of the most picturesque Hawaii tours to check out on your next trip to the Big Island.
1. All-Day Circle IslandHawaiiTours
If you really want to make the most of your vacation on the Big Island, then a Circle Island Tour is the best way to leave no stone unturned.
By booking an all-day circle tour, you will have the chance to visit each breathtaking corner of this picturesque island.
Home to 11 out of 13 climate zones, the Big Island offers tourists a first-hand experience with several exquisite landscapes. Whether you’re hoping to experience pristine waterfalls or breathtaking volcanoes, these tours have something for every traveler.

Some of the locations you can expect to visit are:

You will see a large variety of native flora and fauna and will be offered a delicious continental breakfast and lunch during the excursion.

2. Big Island Helicopter Tours
When you’re trying to choose between the different types of Hawaii tours that are available, it’s important to find something unique and unforgettable.
A Big Island helicopter tour fits the bill.
While Hawaii is undoubtedly gorgeous from the ground level, nothing can quite prepare you for the bird’s-eye experience these helicopters provide.
Departing from a few different Big Island airports, Hawaii Discount’s selection of Big Island helicopter tours showcase all of the island’s natural beauty.
You’ll hover above brilliant rainforest habitats and sweeping Hawaiian valleys and feel the heat directly from flowing lava as you coast through the circle of fire in a doorless chopper.
3. Snorkeling Tours
After you’re finished touring the Big Island above sea-level, then make sure you consider an underwater excursion.
Hawaiian oceans are home to a whole world of extraordinary plant and animal life. Snorkeling tours are the perfect way to experience this habitat for yourself.
By boat or by raft, participants can look forward to an array of beautiful creatures, such as:
- Dolphins
- Sea Turtles
- Manta Rays
- Tropical Fish
You will also have an up-close vantage point of Hawaii’s immaculate coral reefs. Most Big Island snorkel tours last three to four hours and include a light snack.
Worried that you don’t have a waterproof camera? Don’t … cheap, disposable ones are easy to come by.
