Guidekin's take

Look for sea turtles on a shore excursion that also covers Kona coffee and historical sights around Kailua-Kona.

A guide, bottled water and port pickup and drop-off are included; lunch costs extra, and the vehicle has no lift. 4.62 from 513 reviews at €136 per person for 5h.

In our comparison: #6 of 6 in Kona Coffee, Farm & Food Tours, by rating weighted by review volume (see the comparison).
