Volcano Ohana is a Keaau, Hawaii-based tour operator specializing in guided Fat Tire E-Bike experiences and private custom-van excursions on the Big Island. Operating routes that include Volcanoes National Park, Kalapana Beach Road, and the black sand beach formed by the 2018 eruption, Volcano Ohana offers a mix of guided tours and rentals designed to showcase volcanic landscapes and coastal cliffs.
Trips include 3-hour and 5-hour Fat Tire E-Bike tours, a rental option that provides the only Fat Tire E-Bikes available inside Volcanoes National Park, and private full-day custom van tours tailored to guests’ interests. Guides share geological insights and local stories while providing route guidance, snacks on select tours, and safety instruction before each ride. Tours for cruise passengers are available with tailored timing and logistics.
Bikes are powerful, designed for quick learning, and ride on the same roads as vehicles, enabling guests to reach top viewpoints faster than hiking or driving. While the equipment is accessible for many riders, some tours are recommended for intermediate or advanced cyclists; the operator specifies that inability to ride a 26” two-wheeled bike does not warrant a refund.
Volcano Ohana emphasizes safe, guided exploration of unique Big Island terrain, focusing on authentic interpretation of volcanic features and efficient access to sights. Local guides are knowledgeable about park regulations, safety protocols, and leave-no-trace practices, enhancing guest confidence during outings. Located in Keaau, Hawaii, the company provides options for guests seeking guided adventure in Volcanoes National Park, beach cliffs, and surrounding landscapes.
