A Hawaii volcano tour can be a most memorable experience, and is readily available (short of eruptions!) year round. While each island boasts some volcanic heritage, The Big Island is where allrepparttar action is.

A Hawaii volcano tour of necessity begins in Hawaii Volcanoes National Park, established in 1916. This park, containing more than 218,000 acres, is open daily and offers guided tours and more. It encompasses bothrepparttar 133759 world's most massive volcano, Mauna Kea, at 13,796 feet, and Kilauea,repparttar 133760 world's most active volcano. Mauna Kea, which in Hawaiian means literally "white mountain", gets this name fromrepparttar 133761 fact that it is quite often snow-capped. It is also thought to berepparttar 133762 world's tallest mountain when measured from it's undersea base torepparttar 133763 summit. Currently dormant, Mauna Kea has also becomerepparttar 133764 home of an important astronomical center, where astronomers from all overrepparttar 133765 world vie for spots atoprepparttar 133766 summit to viewrepparttar 133767 heavens.
