GBTrust Best of Hawaii’s Customer Service I booked a 5hour guided kayaking tour I found on Best of Hawaii. It was with Sun and Salt Adventures Hawaii - Oahu: 5 Hour Guided Na Mokulua Island Kayak Tour. Best of Hawaii's Adin has been a lifesaver and answered all my questions. However, the kayaking tour was not a great experience with a poor outfitting of a tiny tandem kayak and a pfd that was too big. My boyfriend is over 6' tall. He was paddling with his knees at his chest. He was so uncomfortable. We capsized because the kayak was so unbalanced and seats were not adjusted properly. My pfd was floating above my head because it was too big. Our guide did not seem too concerned about safety or about using the best route with the tidal conditions. Best of Hawaii apologized for this terrible experience and did offer a customer appeasement. I appreciate Best of Hawaii and Sun and Salt worked with me on this truly bad experience. Best of Hawaii listened to me and was very understanding.

GBAwesome adventure I loved Kualoa Ranch ATV adventure. Came prepared with face guard, can get dirty. Loved the hosts, took pictures/video at a beautiful rest spot. Scenery was absolutely beautiful, mountains with lush greenery was perfect for photos/video. Highly recommend to everyone.

GBNot bad - but tour guide could be more friendly. Did a zipline tour on the week-end, and was not exactly what I expected. Felt like it was pretty expensive for how long the tour lasted. The zip-lining itself was fun, but the tour guide acted like he really didn't want to be there. I would definitely try zip-lining again, but might try a different company next time. Altogether, I would rate it 3-stars. Could definitely have been 4-stars if the guide was a bit friendlier to people who paid a lot of money to be there.

GBNETTY IS THE BEST!!!! Magical experience thanks to the BEST tour guide Netty! Not only did she lead us through a wonderful adventure, she saved us in shorts and flip flops (unprepared) ensured we got towels and blankets before we left. Make sure you bundle up! Freezing conditions in winter months, but so worth it!

GBPCC 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.
