Roberts Hawaii Shore Excursions - Historic Kona Tour

This tour is only available for cruise ship passengers. The dates provided line up with the schedule of the cruise ships Pride of America and Holland America.

Take a trip back in time to Pu'uhonua O Honaunau National Historical Park, an ancient Hawaiian place of refuge for kapu (forbidden law) breakers. Then continue on to beautiful Kealakekua Bay, a marine life preserve and home to the Captain Cook monument. This is where Cook landed in 1779, when natives mistook him for the god Lono. When later he proved to be a mere mortal, he was slain. The next stop is the Painted Church, a small church that Belgian priests painted to be a grand cathedral. The last stop of this tour is at a Kona coffee factory.

Tour Highlights:

  • Puuhonua O Honaunau National Park* – ancient Hawaiian village of refuge
  • Kealakekua Bay Overlook (drive-by only) – Captain Cook arrived here in 1779. Historic landmark views include the religious site Hikiau Heiau and Captain Cook’s monument across Kealakekua Bay
  • St. Benedict’s Painted Church* – built between 1899 – 1902, Belgian priests painted this church to be a grand cathedral
  • Royal Kona Coffee* – largest roaster of Kona coffee in the world
