Awesome warm tour guide with remote access to black sand beach

Laura_C, Nov 2022

Awesome tour with a beautiful drive to the secluded beach alongside the river. Views of the volcano were amazing and the knowledge and history parts were very cool. The beach is so remote there is no one else there. I would highly recommend.

Phenomenal

Travis_B, Jul 2022

This excursion was absolutely phenomenal. The ride to and from the beach along the river was so pretty and the beach itself was indescribable. The tour guide let us have fun and was also very knowledgeable about the area and what we saw. There was a couple of extra stops along the trip that was also just so fun. I still can't believer that we were the only ones on the beach. It was fantastic.
