Hilo Ghost Walk + Kona Mauna Kea Stellar Explorer

The Hilo Ghost Walk + Kona Mauna Kea Stellar Explorer package delivers two unforgettable perspectives on the Big Island—its ancient mysteries and its celestial wonders.

Begin your adventure with the Hilo Ghost Walk, an evening walking tour through the historic streets of downtown Hilo. Led by knowledgeable local guides from American Ghost Walks, this 90-minute to 2-hour experience reveals chilling tales of restless spirits, ancient Hawaiian deities, and unexplained island legends. Hear stories tied to the Merrie Monarch Festival, learn about the sacred energy surrounding Mauna Kea, and visit sites where historical tragedy meets supernatural mystery. It’s an immersive storytelling experience that blends culture, folklore, and history in one of Hawaii’s most spiritual towns.

The next day, reach for the stars on the Kona Mauna Kea Stellar Explorer tour. This six-hour journey combines daytime exploration and evening stargazing under one of the clearest skies on Earth. Explore natural landmarks like Rainbow Falls and Kaumana Caves, then enjoy solar viewing through professional-grade telescopes. As night falls, your guide leads you to a dark-sky location on Mauna Kea’s slopes, where a large-aperture telescope reveals galaxies, planets, and the Milky Way in dazzling clarity. Warm drinks, cozy jackets, and expert commentary make this tour as comfortable as it is awe-inspiring.

Together, these experiences showcase Hawaii’s two great frontiers—the unseen world of spirits and the infinite world above.
