Top Hawaii City Tours - page 2

First I got a text letting me know they were running about 10 minutes late which I really appreciated. That didn’t put us behind on anything. Bring a clear bag for items you bring and may purchase and wear comfortable shoes especially if you are doing the all day tour. It says a time slot per tour and me and my husband are pretty quick and like to move fast but it did indeed take the whole day. Our tour guide was very informative about the city and couture. Our guide also stopped so we could get the infamous Leonard’s Malasadas.

We loved the Island History. The whole tour was the best. I can’t believe that Chief Rob kept us engaged and listening to the Island Legends and history the whole time. My husband and I come to the Islands at least every year since we’ve been married for 35 years and we do the Circle Island Tour whenever we are here for a week. This was one of the best tours we have been on because of the authenticity, honesty, humble and real fun stories and even jokes and laughter. Chief Rob knows the Island inside and out, edge to edge. He gave us a deeper appreciation of the Islanders, true Hawaiians and he also educated us how to love each other with the Aloha Spirit (my husband and I immediately practiced putting our foreheads together and breathing and sharing our spirit with each other) Today my husband picked up some plastic that he found on the ground, and I am more cautious not to let any of our items become garbage left on the ground (I already do that, but I better aware of taking care of the Island) We will also enjoy the food recommendations today for sure. Lastly the Island roads that took us around the island were a bit difficult to navigate however with Chief Rob at the helm we knew we were taken cared of. About 10 years ago I went on a snorkeling tour and our tour guide did not mention anything about murky water possibly being not good to swim in, so there were a group of us who opted to go snorkeling. Shortly after we came home, just a week later, ai developed an ear infection in both ears. It was because of the bacteria in the water. I just want to say, Chief Rob, went above and beyond and was honest and I love that about the Tour yesterday. He mentioned that the waters would be a little muddy because of the high winds and the forecast of high surf advisory. We even saw that the water was murky and he still asked if there would be anyone interested in either snorkeling or just swimming. While no one on our bus chose to snorkel because of the obvious conditions of murky brown waters, again I just want to point out that Chief Rob had our best interest at heart and truly took care of all of us! I am sad that he will be retiring soon. I hope that the people he trains who work for Rainbow Island Tour have the same Spirit, Mission, and Passion and Love of the Islands and the people, as Chief Rob! Aloha and Mahalo Chief Rob!

Noelani, our guide, was outstanding. She was friendly, pleasant to be with and very knowledgable. In addition to the Pearl Harbor tour, she gave us a quick tour of the other side of Oahu as well as several historical and cultural sites in downtown Honolulu/Waikiki.
