This was our first time to Hawaii and this tour gave us a broad overview of the many different things to see on Oahu. Our guide had good knowledge of the islands. He talked or sang to us the entire ride. There is quite a bit of distance between all of the different attractions and so his conversation made the trip seem less long. We drove what seemed like the entire island. There was not much time to spend at Pearl Harbor, but because our guide gave us specific direction as to where to sit, I believe we got the most out of this experience. The Dole Plantation was nice, however, not enough time to do the Maze. We were also taken to several temples, a macadamia nut farm and stopped off at the ocean. The trip was well organized and we met lots of new people from all over. Our family enjoyed the time we had.

From the moment we arrived on Oahu, we were welcomed. The visit to the USS Arizona Memorial was breathtaking, especially when we saw the "Black Tears" float on the surface of the water. Following our tour guide's advice (Lani), I positioned myself on the starboard side of the launch, and was afforded the once in a lifetime view of the memorial she promised. One of the photos I captured I have attached. The rest of the tour was wonderful and event filled and I would recommend it highly for anyone looking for a great way to travel from Maui to Oahu and see almost the entire island in a single day! Thanks again.

P.S. The photos are fairly self-explanatory of the Arizona Memorial, the fourth photo shows the "Black Tears." The final photo is a shot of the two of us you can share with Lani. Vivian and I were high school sweethearts that drifted apart and reunited last year after 22 years apart. It's true, "Old flames burn brightest!"

Art our tour guide was simply the best. He was extremely knowledgeable and openly gave the group helpful facts. Even other people around us mentioned how pleasant and accommodating Art was. We felt very special that Art would take extra time and effort to make sure that everyone in the tour group had a good time. He did everything from saving seats for the Polynesian show to giving detailed history of the Hawaiian culture. My family felt very lucky to be in this tour group. Art is a very special person and goes out of his way to make people feel special. My family just loved the Oahu trip.

Probably the best tour we've ever been on. Art, our tour guide, gave non-stop stories, history, quips through the day - an entertainer, historian, buddy for the day. We could never have seen or learned so much without this tour.
Plan on a longgg day!
