Kona Airport Motorcoach Shuttle Transportation (KOA)
the perfect gift
So my husband knows I am a wreck when it comes to dealing with airports and traveling, etc....and by the time I get through the baggage claim and customs and everything, I am usually just so tired and spent and overwhelmed... so when he found out I was going to be going to Hawaii a few days before he could meet me there...he arranged this airport transport ahead of time for me.
It was PERFECT. I had absolutely nothing to worry about....they knew exactly where to take me and I had did was sit back and decompress from the plane! thank you so much...i will book this from now on whenever arriving to the islands, and leaving....makes things so much nicer and easy. book it!

WHIRLWIND DAY OF FUN
From the beginning of the tour's pretty drive along the coast...where everything was green and blue and really jungle-like.....all the way to the National Park where it was rocky and arid and just seemed like a completely different island OR WORLD in itself....this was a remarkable day...and really showed the diversity of the Big Island that I really didn't know was there before.
Glad I went on this tour and would definitely tell others to go on it. thanks.

Whirlwind tour!
This was one whirlwind tour...and I enjoyed every minute. The Pearl Harbor section of the tour was so good to really see the scene of what happened on such an important date in the world's history. I had always wanted to come here, and the guide, with all his extra background facts and info, just really made the trip that much more special.
Then, wow...the island sightseeing tour was amazing...seeing so much more than I would have if I had tried to drive it all myself...and I could just sit back, relax and enjoy the views and the entire experience. Loved this tour....really appreciate the entire day. Will definitely be telling my friends and family to do this on their next visit!

Remembering.
This tour was amazing. I had never been to Pearl Harbor before...but have many family and friends who served. I feel it is important for everyone to pay a visit to Pearl Harbor at least once in their life, just to pay tribute, and to remember.
But not only did I get to pay tribute with my tour/visit...I learned so much about the history behind the war, as well as about the island itself and so much more. The Shrine Room was the most poignant part of the trip for me for sure...to see the actual hull sticking out of the water, and then read all of those names of men that were lost...was surreal. Truly grateful, for those men...and for this tour for really bringing it home to my heart. Thank you.

Home of the Brave Pearl Harbor & Military Base Tour
The best tour I have been on!
I have taken ALOT of tours in my day, and this is by far one of the best I have ever taken. From the minute I got into the (very nice and very CLEAN) charter, the guide, Duke (who just happens to be the son of the owner!) just MADE the day. He was friendly, professional, and extremely knowledgeable of the rich history surrounding both Pearl Harbor and WWII in general.
Throughout the tour, he used humor and wit to share fascinating REAL stories of actual soldiers and events to really make this time in history come alive to all on board. I was just so impressed.
This tour was so much better organized than most other tours I have been on, yet they somehow managed to not make me feel like cattle being herded and pushed around....although we had a schedule to stick to, I never once felt rushed or hurried...it was such an enjoyable day. Duke had a great balance of giving us time on our own to look around the sites and exhibits (rather than treating us like children) yet he was always

Discover Pearl Harbor - Full Day Tour from Waikiki
FULL day
Wow. This was one jam-packed day of History, information, facts and visuals! I went on this tour never having been to Pearl Harbor before, and I didn't really know what to expect...but three generations of my family have served in the Navy, so I was so glad to finally get to go and pay my respects and honor these servicemen.
I knew it was going to be a full day, but I had no idea how much could be fit into just one tour! The entire day was nonstop going...I definitely feel like I got my money's worth as far as history and facts go. This tour is definitely perfect for anyone who wants to know more about our nation's history, in particular WWII and the attacks on Pearl Harbor, even the events leading up to the attack. It was just chock full of facts I never knew...and I consider myself pretty well versed in national history. The tour guide also gave us alot of inside stories of servicemen's familes, etc which really made it hit home. The museum's had REAL people in documentaries talk

Historical Sunset Dinner Cruise (from Kailua-Kona) & Royal Kona Luau Combo
gorgeous and YUMMY!
THIS TOUR REALLY WAS A MATCH MADE IN HEAVEN! starting off with the sunset sail....just relaxed me and helped me wind down from the day. it was also a great little romantic date for us to have. the actual sunset was stunning, simply no words to adequately describe how pretty it was. even my boyfriend who rarely cares for anything like that was speechless. The luau was even better...hard to imagine, but it was! the food was great and delicious, and the show was nonstop entertainment from start to finish. what a great great great way to spend nights in Hawaii. thank you os much for this memory

Manta Ray Watch on Glassbottom Cruise (from Kailua-Kona Pier)
GRACEFUL
Never really knew what to expect from this tour...had never seen a Manta Ray at all before....but they are so cool! They are surprisingly graceful and really just so beautiful to watch as they swim and glide through the water...and at night in the water, with the lights all lit through the viewing windows....it was amazing. Great tour and a fabulous experience overall.

Glass Bottom Dolphin Adventure (from Kailua-Kona)
Kids loved it
My kids LOVED this tour. They were squealing and going from one viewing window to the next with these huge grins on their faces....made me and my husband feel like the best parents ever for bringing them to such a fun memory.
We will definitely be recommending this tour to our friends vacationing to Hawaii. Especially anyone interested in sea life! It is so close and clear!

THIS WAS A BEAUTIFUL BIKE RIDE! I CAN'T IMAGINE A BETTER WAY TO SEE THE BEAUTY OF THIS NATIONAL PARK AND ITS VOLCANO! I ABSOLUTELY WOULD RECOMMEND THIS TOUR FOR ANYONE WHO LOVES TO REALLY GET CLOSE TO THE ACTION AND WHO ALSO LOVES TO EXPERIENCE ISLAND BEAUTY AND EVERYTHING FIRSTHAND.
