Danny was wonderful. He communicated ahead Of our flight to let us know what to expect and was extremely patient and helpful as we dealt with lost luggage on arrival. He was very friendly and even gave us great suggestions for activities and places to eat. What a wonderful way to start our vacation!

Excellent service and timely. Our host was very communicative. Everything went extremely smooth. I would definitely this service. The lei greeting was great as well. The lei's were fresh. All in all I would suggest it to everyone I know.

Great service

Pam_D, Jun 2026
Our driver arrived on time and waited so patiently with us while we waited for such a long time for our bags to come off the plane. The floral leis were so nice and she took a group picture of us.

Stress free experience.

Elizabeth_M, Jun 2026
Danny was great welcoming us at bag claim. The Leis were beautiful and glad we got a picture at the airport wearing them. Because they are fresh they do not last long. Van/bus was very comfortable.

Great airport transportation

Gail_H, Jun 2026
Great driver. He kept in touch with me through the airport and even sent me his picture so I would know exactly who I was looking for.

Magical

Kimberly_T, Jun 2026
Peter was at the baggage claim waiting for us and he texted us to let us know he was there. Beautiful leis that smelled wonderful. Peter was a great driver and was full of information for us. Highly recommend if you want the experience of a lei greeting.

Waste of money

Porsha_E, Jun 2026
This activity was a waste of money. The greeter was very dull and made the moment feel subpar. 0/5 s

We appreciate your comments and will share them with our team as we continue to improve our service. Mahalo and aloha! 🤙

lrsfoot, Jun 2026
Driver was late. I was expecting a little more for the Lei greeting. Then he dropped us off on the parking lot of the hotel and we had no idea where to go. NOT WORTH THE MONEY

Great customer service

Lakisha_M, Jun 2026
Our flight kept getting delayed but I kept informing our driver Danny and he responded back every time. He was waiting on us at baggage claim. We appreciate that so much.

Seamless transfer

Kim_G, Jun 2026
James communicated with us prior to arrival. Our experience was seemless. He helped with our luggage and made certain we were at the right place prior to dropping us off.

Vincent was wonderful! He...

Amanda_G, Jun 2026
Vincent was wonderful! He texted me the morning of our arrival to confirm our flight and hotel details and he met us at baggage claim exactly as he said he would. He ended up having to wait longer than usual for us because our checked bag was misplaced and the airline had to track it down. He pointed out landmarks on the way to our hotel and was very helpful. So glad we booked with him!

Would use again

Brian_D, Jun 2026
The driver was professional and courteous! Would use again. Gave us enough text messages to keep in contact!

Great communication 5 star service

Amber_B, Jun 2026

Super Pick Up

Verda_B, Jun 2026
Was on time and went smoothly. Courteous and helpful. Would highly recommend! Can't imagine coming to Hawaii without a leisure greeting. This fit that need!

Honolulu

Jacqueline_E, Jun 2026
Our driver, Danny, was wonderful. He gave us a “driving tour” narrating the highlights we passed between the airport and our hotel on Wakiki Beach. He was extremely courteous and made our arrival in Honolulu ( after many hours of travel) very welcoming and relaxing. Danny helped us totally with our bags (which were many and heavy!). And he sent me a list of recommendations on restaurants and activities in the area… very helpful!

Airport pick up

Safe and timely ride..

Arriving at airport

Veronica_R, Jun 2026
It was wonderful experience. Our flight was even early and yet beautiful Alena was there waiting for us at baggage claim. She kept in contact with me the day before and up until she saw us. It was a wonderful surprise for my kids. They didn’t expect to be welcomed as they were. They told me they loved it. I did it as a surprise and it was perfect. Great service, thank you !

Excellent Experience

LoriAnn_R, Jun 2026
Highly recommend! This was a beautiful experience for my granddaughter’s first trip to Honolulu. Our driver Dan was amazing. He texted me before our flight with reminders. He was waiting for us at the baggage claim. Dan was helpful and provided additional information about Honolulu.

Thank you for greeting us...

Jordan_E, Jun 2026
Thank you for greeting us and taking us to our resort safely! We apologize for our delay we had a little trouble looking for the baggage claim and it was a long walk as well. The leis are beautiful! They smell good and I didn’t know they were real. I wish I can take them back home with us. I know it’s not going to last by the time we head back.

Great welcome to Hawaii!

Kendra_M, Jun 2026

No Show

Neil_V, May 2026
They never showed up and never returned my call. The number is automated and they don’t have a live agent . Waited over half hour. Ended up taking a taxi

Response from Host, May 2026

Aloha Neil, Mahalo for your feedback. We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience you experienced. After reviewing our records, we were unable to locate a reservation under your name, and it appears Viator may not have successfully transmitted the booking to our system. Unfortunately, without receiving the reservation details, we would not have been able to dispatch a driver or proactively contact you. We understand how frustrating this must have been after arriving at Honolulu Airport, and we’re very sorry for the experience. Mahalo and aloha

Our tour guide was on...

Laura_K, May 2026
Our tour guide was on time, texted any instructions and we had a comfortable ride. Highly recommend!

Very reputable transportation!

William_B, May 2026
I would highly recommend this transport service. Booking was easy, we received texts ahead of our arrival for a meeting place at the airport and our driver, Alena was pleasant and welcoming. Alena had to wait an extra 1.5-2 hours extra after the baggage system at the airport broke down. She remained very pleasant and accommodating through the ordeal. We chose to purchase the ride with an orchid lei greeting. You won’t go wrong reserving with this transport service!

Driver was very nice and...

Aliyah_G, May 2026
Driver was very nice and helpful. He got all of our bags for us and we didn’t have to worry about anything. The only bad review would be we didn’t get any leis.
