Very convenient shuttle to Manoa!
I wanted to go to Manoa Falls and this was the best bet for me and my friends. It was inexpensive, easy and did the job! Would do it again :)

All You Can Eat Salad Bar and Freshly Grilled Steak & Fish! Yummmers!
My friends and I went on a sunset sail and followed up with a dinner at the Shore Bird! Enjoying the two activities back to back was an awesome choice, and really happy that I did this!
First perk? Booking in advance means you don't have to wait in line to get seated! When we got there, a couple in front of us had just walked up and they were told that it would be an hour and a half wait. We walked up and immediately got escorted to our beach-side table. PERFECT!
Second? Getting to hit up that salad bar! I was pretty ravenous after having a number of drinks, and being able to fill up a plate of veggies, pasta and some ridiculously delicious quinoa was awesome. It held us over until we got our main course :)
Lastly? Being able to grill up your food the way YOU like it? Yes please!
Will definitely go back and will go a little later so I can indulge in some karaoke (starts at 9:30pm) <3

Sunset Sail and a BBQ Dinner with an Ocean View? YES PLEASE!
My friends and I had the BEST night in Hawaii with this combo :D The drinks flowed freely (Get the shaker! TOTALLY WORTH IT!), the music was kicking, the views were awesome and the crew was on IT!
We wanted a to see the sunset and have some cocktails AND have a delicious dinner, and this fit the bill perfectly. Rather than shelling out $100 or more for a dinner cruise (basically a floating restaurant), we got to enjoy the sunset while under sail, had all of the booze we could drink (mimosas, mai tais and more!) and then had a yummy dinner that we got to grill up ourselves. Woot! Woot!
The dinner was hella tasty and it was great that we got the combo since I saw people walk up to the hostess at the restaurant and they got told that there would be an hour and a half wait. WHAT!? We checked in and got escorted right to our table. Yup! Yup!
Definitely a great choice for anyone looking to have a great island night in Waikiki~

Turtles! TURTLES! MORE TURTLES!!!
When they say "Turtles Guaranteed", they are not joking. After a quick sail from the harbor to the snorkel (about 15 to 20 minutes) we dived in to see like six or seven large Hawaiian green sea turtles relaxing beneath us. It was absolutely incredible :D
The spot they took us to is this amazing location where turtles like to congregate and chill out while they get their shells cleaned off by schools of fish. Since we went on the morning snorkel, we beat the crowds and got to swim and snorkel leisurely without any fuss.
I didn't think to bring a GoPro or an underwater camera, but if you have one, or can get your hands on one, DO IT! The photo opportunities are amazing. The turtles like to lazily swim around and they are just so photogenic.
Great tour! Can't wait to go again!!!

Princeville Ranch Zipline Adventures
The most fun I had in Kauai!
Imagine the thrill that you get when you go on a roller coaster. Now imagine that while bring surrounded by amazing tropical scenery. Those two things put together made ziplining the highlight of my visit to Kauai!
First of all, the guides were totally on-point. They kept us entertained during the walks to each zipline and were a fountain of knowledge about the island as well. All of our safety and comfort was taken care of, and even though it was scary at first, by the time you do the third zipline, you are just itching to get on the next one!
I lost track of how many zips I did, but by the time my husband and I raced down side-by-side on the King Kong (I won by the way~!), I was pretty much a pro :-P Seriously, if this is on your bucket list, do it! If this isn't on your bucket list, do it anyway! :D

One of the best things to do in Kauai!
You know those log rides at amusement parks? Now imagine one that is in a tropical paradise AND lasts an hour and that is what the tubing is like. It was literally the most fun I had on the island and I can see why it is so popular!
From the moment my husband and I checked-in we got amazing service from some of the friendliest peeps on the island. They got us kitted up with the gear we would need (bring a GoPro or a waterproof camera with you since you are wearing gloves the whole time and that makes touchscreen use a bit awkward) and then took us on a lovely drive to the launch site. The views along the way were breathtaking.
Once we plopped into our tubes, we let the water and Mother Nature take control as she kept me flowing along the irrigation ditches. There are some great drops and mini-rapids, as well as a number of dark tunnels. I didn't want the ride to end! At the end of the tour, we got to make yummy sandwiches, played with the local kitty Mochi and I wanted to jump in the swimming hole, but we ran out of time. Will definitely dive in on my next visit!

A day that I won't ever forget!
My friends and I were finally able to get together on Oahu, and we knew that we wanted to spend it out on the water. This cruise was the perfect choice since we got to snorkel at TWO spots (both filled with fish, coral, urchins, etc.), sipped on cocktails, devoured plates and plates of food, watched the sunset AND got to see whales! We literally couldn't ask for more!
After leaving the harbor, we headed out to the first snorkel spot and got the first glimpse of whales and after we got out of the water (which was really warm by the way), we saw even MORE whales!
The food was really hearty and filling (pulled pork, teriyaki chicken, a really tasty pasta salad, white rice, veggies and fruit) and the crew kept all of our drinks topped up :)
Really happy that we got to go on this cruise, and can't wait to go again on my next visit!

The best of both worlds~!
What an amazing day this was! Not only did I get to swim with two dolphins, but also got to go to a great luau too! Some of the things that I knew that I wanted to do when I came to Hawaii was 1) swim with dolphins and 2) go to a luau, and this combo was a great way to do both in one day.
My mom and I got picked up early in the morning and the drive to Sea Life Park was GORGEOUS. The bus driver was really nice about making a short stop for pics along the way too. After we arrived, we checked in and had a few hours before my Royal Swim. We saw a number of fish and sharks in the huge tank, a sea lion show, watched penguins waddle around and then I got the ride of my life when I got into the pool with TWO DOLPHINS! AAAH! I was so excited!
Afterwards, my mom and I freshened up and relaxed at the park for a bit before we checked in for the Chief's Luau. What. A. Show. Chief Sielu makes everyone feel like a part of the family and the performers are off the hook. And the food was tasty too! Yes, that is important :-P
Can't wait to do this again...sooooon!

The best thing to do in Hawaii!
I have always been meaning to learn the hula dances for few of my favorite songs, but you can only learn so much via YouTube videos, so I decided that on my next trip to Hawaii I would find a way to get a "one on one" lesson, and I found a fantastic one!!!
It was an awesome experience from the moment I booked the lesson, all the way until I said goodbye. I was able to arrange a private class for my friend and me at Magic Island. Hula on the beach...can there be anything more awesomely Hawaii than that?
The meeting location was clearly indicated so it was easy to find and she was even early for our lesson. She was great about offering suggestions on where to hold the class (comfort, view, etc.) and had the lyrics to all three of the songs I had inquired about printed up for us too.
For the next hour, my friend and I got a dance tailored to our dancing experience/ability (I have danced on and off since I was 5 yrs old and my friend had NEVER done hula in her life) and I can't believe that we were taught an entire song in only an hour! We got the video recording add-on and Sarah provided a tripod that works with cameras and phones so it was easy to record the dance. The video is going to be so handy to review when I get back home :)
I can't recommend this enough, especially since this will be much better souvenir of your vacation than a tiki doll or a pineapple mug :-P

Great Value!
After dealing with some of the other shuttles on my many trips to Oahu, I am so happy to have found this one! Nice and new vans AND Wifi so I can go through Facebook and Reddit without chomping through my data limit. Totally worth the few extra dollars and definitely never going back to the duct-tape covered van companies.
