Trust 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.

Pearl Harbour Tour Found a Pearl harbour tour online and booked over the phone through Hawaii tours. The staff member was very helpful and informative and gave me the confidence that I was getting what I wanted. I received excellent email and phone confirmation. The company that I toured with was Hoku tours. They picked me up opposite my hotel right on time. My tour guide was absolutely fantastic and the tour schedule was outstanding. There were so many versions and companies to do a tour of Pearl Harbor with it was overwhelming and yet I am very glad I chose this company.

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.

The people were very nice The people were very nice, the animals were healthy and appeared to be well cared for. The zipline was fun, but the horseback riding was mediocre at best. It was pretty much nose to tail and absolutely no gait other than a walk was allowed. If you are an experienced or even intermediate rider, this is not something you want to spend your money or time on. Perhaps just the zipline or one of their other options would be better for you.

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
