About This Adventure

Embark on a spine-chilling 1.5-hour ghost tour in Hilo, exploring haunted hotels and historic sites with a local guide. Experience eerie tales, utilize paranormal detection equipment, and participate in a cleansing ritual, all while uncovering the supernatural history of this enchanting island. Perfect for thrill-seekers and history buffs alike!

##Duration 1.5 Hours

TOUR OVERVIEW: Hilo days might be warm, but when the sun goes down and there's a chill in the air, it's easy to imagine eerie happenings among the quiet beaches and rustling palms. Investigate sites of paranormal occurrences with a local guide, scoping out haunted hotels and historic sites as you hear tales of spooky sightings.

Begin your outing with a prayer of protection and a statement of intention, and listen as your guide provides a brief history of Hilo. Hear about supernatural activity in the islands as you begin your tour in the Queen Liliuokalani Gardens, where ghostly sightings have occurred in the past, and then make your way to Coconut Island, following the route of the legendary Night Marchers.

Pass by the massive, tangled trees that line Banyan Drive, planted long ago by visiting celebrities like Babe Ruth, and wind up near the site of an ancient Hawaiian graveyard. At each spine-tingling location along the way, pull out specialized paranormal activity detection equipment and see if you can detect any unusual spiritual presences. Your experience concludes with a cleansing white sage ritual before your guide sends you on your way. ​ NOTE: We must have a minimum of two (2) total guests to run the tour. Meeting location will be emailed to you at time of purchase.

TIMES: This tour is offered nightly and starts promptly at 5PM and 7 PM.

This tour is wheelchair and scooter accessible. Guests will need to transport and operate their own equipment on this tour.
