This was my 4th time seeing the lights. There were fewer lights then previous years. The worst part was not enough time was allowed for seeing the displays at the Hale building. The trolley was decorated nicely and the driver was pleasant but radio was used for music which was interrupted with talking. I doubt I will do this again due to parking cost added to ticket cost. :-(

A long but excellent day trip. Always felt safe with Bruce, our driver, despite some hair-raising hair-pin bends. Some of the views have to be seen to be believed. Would recommend this tour to anyone.

Our original driver lost his wallet so could not drive us. We had to wait close to an hour to get a new driver. This combined with heavy traffic due to a Christmas parade resulted in our tour being significantly delayed and feeling somewhat rushed as we tried to save time at each stop. Our second driver was very knowledgeable and gave us an excellent running commentary as we toured. We did skip a couple of stops/activities due to the delays, but we're not offered any type of compensation. While this is a highly recommended tour company that provided the service, I find it disappointing they did nothing to make up for their issues.

We took the Waimea Canyon and Wailua River Cruise tour and what an experience. Our driver and tour guide, Juan, was amazing. His knowledge of the history of the island of Kauai together with his own experiences growing up on the Garden Isle really made the day beyond interesting. From the time we boarded the tour bus until the end of the day, Juan's personality, knowledge and wit made every minute enjoyable. We highly recommend this tour AND Juan to all who may consider it.

Really nice tour to summit and super dinner at Café O Lei.
While Mother Nature didn't necessarily cooperate (she rained on us the last 2 days of trip, but it might have been our fault as we stupidly asked for her to turn the wind down a bit the first 2 days ;)...) the sunset wasn't brilliant but still awe inspiring (also got a glimpse of how beautiful it could be on the flight out the next day still very cloudy - could see more color and summit as we took off...). Oh lavender farm was nice too - I'm not a lavender person but whole area was beautiful and people at farm nice.
Tour was still great - views were still stunning - dinner was really good and other people on tour were quite a fun group!

子供2人連れて映画ロケ地めぐり、ジャングルツアー、クルーズの3つを選択しました。
ほとんど乗り物に乗っているので子供がいても楽チンです。
日曜はクルーズツアーが小規模のものとなり、代わりに果樹園で色々な南国フルーツを楽しめたのですが、これが結構良かったです。

I am so glad I decided to take this tour! We had taken the Road to Hana on our own 4 years ago. The experience was such that I felt the need to come back, but this time by means of a tour guide that would tell us the background of all the wonders we got to see and experience back then. This stretch of the island of Maui is so rich in history. Turns out I was right. Thanks to our tour guide/driver, Larry. He made this experience all the more magical. I am a history enthusiast. Larry touched on every aspect of this journey. From the vegetation's different species (origin, current and past uses, etc.), rock formations, the incredible waterfalls and grottos, to the towns people of present and past. Oh, and the beaches, breathtaking. I loved soaking my feet at Blacksand beach. Wish we could of stayed there longer. I appreciated our stop at the local's farmers market. Got to sample a taste of the locals organic fruits, banana bread, fruit jams and honey. I was able to purchase of everything I sampled. This is definitely a tradition for my family. When in Maui...Tour Guided Road to Hana Highway Adventure is a must. These drivers are experts, I will leave the driving to them! While I sit back and enjoy the trip.

Royal Star motorcoach provided top notch transportation and Patrick, our driver and guide, provided superior service. The motorcoach was impeccably clean and modern and Patrick was friendly, funny, and completely knowledgeable about everything Hawaiian that all of us asked him. I particularly liked that Patrick kept track of us at all times and was at all rendezvous sites at Pearl Harbor on time. It was great to know that he was looking out for us and took a personal interest in all of us. Patrick is a wonderful ambassador of your company and of your motorcoach and guide services. By the way, I'm not related to Patrick, but I am a former motorcoach bus captain myself for several years in Virginia. Patrick is a man worth keeping happy; you do not want to lose this gem to a competitor! We were very glad we found VELTRA online for our Pearl Harbor and Honolulu transportation and tour on 11/27/2015.

We loved, loved, and loved it! The movie tour on Kauai is the perfect treat for not only movie fans such as me and my husband but for those who love seeing the beauty of Kauai. As it combines clips of scenes from famous, and some not so famous, movies filmed on the Island. It’s an easy six hours of entertainment as the tour guide fills you with fun facts of the movies with the reality of what actually had to occur (or not occur in some cases) for the film to be made. Bleeps of scenes and inaccuracies are pointed out with amusement such as scenes that go from one far corner of the Island into the mountains with the flash of the camera such as in the Elvis movie “Blue Hawaii.”
For a modest cost, my husband and I enjoyed touring Hawaii and meeting other tourists and having lunch (choice of Burgers; Pulled Pork and Chicken Sandwiches and Salads for the vegetarians) at the wonderful restaurant, Tahiti Nui, used in the film “The Descendants.” We even got to meet Julia, the real bartender in the movie.
The tour guide was professional, courteous and funny and went out of his way to point out great restaurants and frequent stops for pictures.
We highly recommend this for anyone as a wonderful way to tour Kauai and enjoy movie making at its most magical.

Awesome tour . Very scenic drive . Our tour guide was Charles, he knew everything about all the places we went through right after we started from hotel until back . He knew exactly where to stop or slow down to take awesome pics or view the beauty of Hana . 5 on 5 for this beautiful tour and knowledgable guide.. I took 1 star for the lunch provided . Breakfast was light fruits and rolls and being on entire day trip, we were expecting a better lunch . Besides salad , steamed rice and watermelon, there was chicken and being vegetarian this did not feel like lunch . We got a veg taco plate when asked about the veg option, which was equally bad and cold
Apart from this I would say this is a must do if in Muai to see actual nature ..

After finishing our day with two big smiles on our faces, my friend and I agreed that it would have to be something extraordinary to top this! We had the time of our lives.
We met some lovely people, and we, being from Sweden, thaiught that it was really amazing that folks we're so understanding when we lost ourselves in translation sometimes.
The sights we saw were amazing with good variety. The bus was not full to the brim with people so moving in and out was easy and it did not take long to gather ourselves up when leaving a destination to go see the next. (Except when Kevin went out to look for our friend from hong kong haha)
The information we attained during the driving time was fun, entertaining and interesting.
Our tourguide, cousin Kevin, will forever and ever remain in our Hearts and memories. Because he is now a part of our international ohana, and what does that mean? Family. And what does family mean?
Nobody gets left behind or forgotten!
Until next time,
Aloha and thank you!

Overall it was a very fun trip. However the trip time wise is a little too long. The food wise too need a little improvement. It was only a little rice and bbq chicken. This trip include a simple breakfast too, but don't expect a continental breakfast. It's just coffee fruits and croissant. Thank you Steve our driver and our guide for the informative trip and the scenery is exceptionally beautiful. You will never get to view all the scenery spots if you didn't attend this trip. We went to see a few water falls, it was absolutely beautiful, however we weren't able to swim in the pools as they were closed on that day. We went to black sand beach also, the sands are black, it's really cool... We took awesome lots of picture, it's definitely a memory that you will never forget. Advise to not go to the trip if you're tiered or sick cuz it's a energy consuming trip. Overall you will have fun.

I'm always nervous booking something online and it was wonderful when we got off the plane to have our greeter right there in plain site. This was a surprise for our guests traveling with us and was a very nice welcome to Hawaii. The greeter was absolutely lovely but we couldn't understand her because she seemed to speak in a whisper. Maybe our hearing was off from the engine noise of 11 hours flying to get there. I was expecting an orchid lei and instead got the big brown nut lei that looks like chocolate. I guess that's better because it will last forever as a souvenir even though the flowers are much prettier. I would use them again but just ask that the greeter try to speak a little louder.

We were picked up less than a block away from our Waikiki Hotel for an early morning 6:30am tour with a guarantee to return us back to the hotel no later than 2:00 pm. As we had a scheduled 3:00pm pick-up for transportation to the cruise ship pier from our Hotel, the time schedule was critical. The drive showed up right on time in a luxury Tour Bus. We completed the Pearl harbor tour which included the USS Missouri, the USS Arizona, and the city tour and got us back to our hotel with time to spare. Great Service. Would highly recommend.

Would like to see a place to get souvenirs the place we went to are so expensive. disappointed about the pool was not open at the state park. Sometimes it seem we were rushed and like at the state park nothing to do since the pool was closed. Tour guide did a good job also taking pictures with me and my spouse. You can do it on your own but i think you would miss a lot of extras. Thank you for a wonderful time and memories.

マウイは今回で4回目ですが、山へ行くのは初めて。時間通りにやまちゃんさんがホテルに迎えにきてくれました。行きの車中では、みんなの出身地を聞いたりして賑やかな時間でした。途中お土産屋さんへ立ち寄り、やまちゃんお薦め商品を試食して購入したりしました。山頂に着くころにはサンセットタイム、山頂は雲の上です。サンセットは赤いだけではなく、青い色との何層にもなってました。その後、少し下山して車中でお弁当。食べ終わり、みんなで下を向いて外へ、見上げた空はなんとプラネタリウムでした。肉眼で見る天の川!!!望遠鏡を使って土星も見ることができ、感動感動でした。命の洗濯ができたと言っても過言ではないと思います。やまちゃんのわかりやすい星の説明、一人一人への気遣いははプロ中のプロだと思いました。
同じ横浜の出身でしたね!日本ではなかなか見れない夕焼けと星空を楽しんで頂き、喜ばしく思います。星空は我慢に我慢を重ねて、みんなで「せーの」で見ることにしており、やはり暗くなるまで「下を向いて歩こう」は必要なのです(笑)また是非お目にかかれることを楽しみにしております!
