An unbelievable and unique experience not to miss out on. Due to a full moon our excursion was moved from an evening to the early morning hours. Getting up at 1:45 am with three college aged sons was tough but so worth it. It’s the highlight of our trip and they’re still talking about it. The meteor shower, satellites racing above us, constellations pointed out to us, James was awesome. So knowledgeable and he took so many amazing photos. Waterfalls, lava tube... what a great way to start out our stay in Hawaii. Now that we’re getting ready to leave We all agree... THE BEST, thanks!!!
