Fantastic experience Fantastic experience from being picked up, safety briefing and then the flight. One nervous passenger was totally reassured by staff. Margot the pilot was amazing, giving commentary and inviting questions. In 50 mins we saw a huge part of the island and received loads of information from Margot. I didn't want it to stop so well worth the money. One thing ticked of my bucket list and I cannot recommend it enough. You must do it.

I'm getting my refund !!!!!!! As said in earlier I contacted Dept of Commerce and Consumer Affairs (Honolulu) about not getting my refund from BEST of HAWAII. Quick response from the DCCA was that Best of Hawaii are now posting a cheque to me for my refund. Staff at DCCA have been excellent and continue to followup until I receive my cheque (I'm in Australia). Contact them if you haven't received your refund. They WILL take action on your behalf. DON'T LET BEST OF HAWAII GET AWAY WITH YOUR MONEY

Vacation highlight Nate was an excellent guide: easy going, yet very focused on the particular needs of his guests. He made connections with every individual on board and was highly engaging about the birding, locales, conservation, and the history and culture of Hawaii. We saw all three endemic species of bird that survive on Oahu as well as--on a golf course!--Bristle Thighed Curlew and exhilarating fly-by views of a Laysan Albatross. A truly memorable outing capped off with views of a sleeping Hawaiian Monk Seal. I highly recommend the excursion to birders. Good work; keep it up! Aloha!! Regards, Adam Get Outlook for Android

Isaiah Isaiah, our tour guide was awesome. He was so well informed and educated about the events leading up to Pearl Harbor. He also has a great sense of humor and a very welcoming and friendly demeanor. I usually do not like to take tours, but this one was fantastic and I strongly believe that it was because of Isiah’s presentation and guidance of the tour of Pearl Harbor. My whole family loved it, and we highly recommend it for anyone interested in Pearl Harbor.

PCC and island tour We booked a tour+visit to the Polynesian Cultural Center Driver was great, explaining a lot of what we saw and the historical context. Very entertaining as well, kept us looking out the windows and laughing. Some issues - A little too many comments on the "government doesn't do it's job" line. Tell me the facts and I can decide for myself. Also, more for the tour description - it mentions seeing the LDS Temple. Viewing it from a distance while driving along didn't really qualify. Also had an issue with the tickets. At the price we thought we were getting the VIP tickets, but it was not so. No difference booking through BestOf and booking with the Polynesian Cultural Center directly.
