The truck was waiting for us at Hilo airport, super easy; he even surprised us with a bottle of champagne & leis for our 30th anniversary! James was communicative & easy to contact, fabulous host! Great way to see the island! The propane stove made it convenient for us to cook meals & the tent kept us completely dry, which was a marvel because it rains a lot in Hawaii during August! We loved visiting Volcanoes National Park, but we needed more than the 2 blankets provided to stay warm. We loved having the flexibility to literally go anywhere on the island with this set up! We travelled around the entire island, snorkeling many beaches, including black sand beaches, enjoying colorful fish & turtles. We also went to the botanic gardens with an ocean view, Akaka Falls, shopped in Kona, bought local coffee/pineapple from side road stands & enjoyed dinner at Hilo Bay Cafe, Hilo. The only downer was someone stole a cooler James provided in Waimea in front of Foodland. Fortunately, we were able to buy another one. If you want to stay in a camp sight , make sure to make reservations a week in advance. I recommend this unique way to see the island 100 %! Mahalo James!
