    About this experience

    Hawaii is a well-known hotspot for UFO activity, making it the perfect place to explore the unseen world of the night sky. Join Galactic Ambassador Dr. Lisa Thompson on this 1.5-hour Intro UFO Tour, where you’ll gain a whole new perspective on what’s above us. Using advanced 3rd-generation military night vision goggles, you’ll learn to identify known objects—satellites, planes, and helicopters—before shifting your focus to the unknown. With Dr. Lisa as your guide, you’ll hear firsthand UFO encounters, explore the emerging remembrance of our galactic ancestors, and open yourself to the mysteries of the universe. This experience takes place in a comfortable outdoor setting, where you’ll sit beneath Hawaii’s star-filled sky, listening to captivating stories and watching the heavens in a way you never have before. The exact meeting location is provided within 24 hours of the tour. As a weather-dependent event, we monitor conditions closely to ensure the best experience possible.

    What you'll see and do

    1. Option 1: Intro UFO Tour - This 1.5 hour Intro UFO Tour will introduce you to the unseen world of the Hawaiian night sky. You will learn about what is "known" (or identified) and how those objects behave, including satellites, planes, and helicopters. Once you are trained in the "known," you will then be able to experience the "unknown" (or unidentified). Our guides talk story about their own personal experiences with UFOs. Experience begins between 6-7:30pm, varying throughout the year based on sunset. Option 2: The Expanded Spiritual UFO Tour, which includes the Intro Tour and begins directly after the first part of the tour ends, lasts 1.5 hours. We guide you through a meditative journey to meet your galactic "guides and/or family" and to raise your vibration to call in spacecraft. We will introduce you to some of the different alien races and identify where they come from and how they have been a part of humanity throughout time. This experience will provide you with a newfound appreciation for the evolution of humanity and how we fit into the Universe. Extra fee per person.

    The truth is out there!

    We took our family and kids on the night UFO tour on the Big Island, and it was hands-down one of the highlights of our trip! Our tour guide was incredibly knowledgeable and kept everyone engaged the entire time, sharing fascinating insights that blew us all away. The kids had an absolute blast looking up at the sky, and the whole experience was both exciting and educational. It’s definitely something we would highly recommend to friends, and we would absolutely do it again. If you're on the Big Island, don't miss this unique night tour!

    Response from the operator: Thank you so much for coming on the tour! We had a great time hosting you!!!

    10/10 would do this again!

    Lisa was great at communicating the meeting point prior to the activity. She was very interesting and the night vision goggles were amazing! We saw so many stars you can't see with the naked eye, along with satellites traveling in every direction, and a couple of UAPs. Even a UAP that powered up and down several times! A great experience and leaves you wanting your own pair of night vision goggles!

    Fun and Informative!!

    My younger daughter and her husband are UFO followers so I was surprised and delighted to see this offered. Dr. Lisa Thompson was very knowledgeable about UFO phenomena and time just flew by as she spoke on this topic. There was ample time to use the military grade night vision goggles to track possible UFOs and these night vision goggles opened up a whole new night time sky experience. Lisa even sent some links in regard to UFOs that I forwarded to my daughter. Even if you are a non-believer, this experience may make you rethink your skepticism. This is definitely an enjoyable experience for both UFO believers and non-believers.

    Big Island UFO Tour

    My wife and I truly enjoyed the UFO tour. We found it informative, entertaining, and fun. Viewing all that is in the night sky is amazing, planets, satellites, and maybe ???? Lisa is passionate about what might be or is in our night sky. We enjoyed the tour so much, we are going to take it again, when our friends visit us later this month.

    UFO Tour on the Big Island of Hawaii: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Big Island of Hawaii.

    How much does UFO Tour on the Big Island of Hawaii cost?

    +

    Prices start at $125 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Big Island of Hawaii usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does UFO Tour on the Big Island of Hawaii take?

    +

    Plan for about 1.5 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Big Island of Hawaii is not rushed.

    Is UFO Tour on the Big Island of Hawaii worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 71 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 70 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Big Island of Hawaii, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule UFO Tour on the Big Island of Hawaii?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is UFO Tour on the Big Island of Hawaii suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 1.5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book UFO Tour on the Big Island of Hawaii?

    +

    Around 25 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Big Island of Hawaii can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Big Island of Hawaii and add a light layer if any part of the 1.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does UFO Tour on the Big Island of Hawaii start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Big Island of Hawaii within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Big Island of Hawaii?

    +

    The Big Island is volcano country: Hawaii Volcanoes National Park tours, Mauna Kea summit stargazing, night manta ray snorkels off Kona, Waipio Valley lookouts and coffee farm visits. Summit tours have real altitude rules, so we weight safety detail. On Outty we rank every Big Island of Hawaii experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include KONA Manta Ray Night Snorkel - FREE re-ride if no Sightings, Big Island: Captain Cook Snorkel On A Power Catamaran With Lunch, Big Island in a Day: Volcanoes Waterfalls Sightseeing and History. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Big Island of Hawaii?

    +

    April to October, though the island runs year round. Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Big Island of Hawaii?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
