Jorge was very knowledgeable and our Pearl Harbor experience was great! - Aloha Sunshine Tours arranged everything, which included our flight to and from Kauai and all the tickets we needed inside. He was a little late picking us up from the airport but there was another couple that got lost and we had to wait for them anyway. Jorge did a great job telling us what to expect at the Memorial and gave us a lot of information as we drove around Honolulu and Waikiki. My husband wanted to see EVERYTHING at Pear Harbor and this tour allowed us to see it all and we had plenty of time to see it.

Nicely organized trip in Hawaii - We had a lovely, great planned out trip! It was organized so nicely! The printouts we were given upon arrival were great, and helpful. The tour guide was odd, and the tour van was in poor condition with no real working AC, so the tour vehicle was not the greatest, but mostly the windows were so dirty we were not even able to see out. However, the trip really was planned nicely, and organized! Hopefully you will get a great guide with a decent tour bus. I would still definitely recommend Viator for sure!

Pearl Harbor from Kauai - For myself and my husband, this may be a once in a lifetime visit and it was worth it. We took a day trip to Oahu to visit pearly harbor. We loved touring the Missouri and seeing all of the memorials. Our driver, Jorge, was very knowledgable and a blast to spend our day with! The entire experience was smooth from our departing flight from Kauai in the morning until we returned in the evening. For anyone interested in WWII, this is a must place to visit.

Complete Pearl Harbor Experience from Kauai - My husband & I booked the Complete Pearl Harbor Experience from Kauai. In general it was a great experience, and one that we would have had difficulty coordinating and booking ourselves. It started out a little rocky in that our confirmation stated we were booked on a Southwest flight from Kauai to Honolulu at 6:00 a.m. We were to be at the Lihue airport by 4:45 a.m. When we arrived and were trying to check in we found there was no reservation for us under the code we were given on any Southwest flight that day. Gate agent could not help us. Called the tour operator’s office and left a message since they were not yet open. As it turned out our reservation was on Hawaiian Airlines, not Southwest, despite the several confirmation messages we had received. We didn’t get a call back that day until late morning and by then we had figured it out ourselves. All in all, a bit stressful. Once reaching Honolulu, we were with a group of about 20 people. Vehicle was comfortable and our guide, Cousin Will, was very nice and kept us informed of the schedule. The tour felt a little rushed at times but overall was very enjoyable and informative. We felt we could have spent more time on the USS Arizona, but, since another shuttle was arriving we were encouraged to take the return one. The remainder of the tour was well done and memorable. We were dropped back at the Honolulu airport a few hours before our flight but we understood others had earlier flights to Maui or Kona so all of our schedules had to be accommodated for.

VERY STRESSFUL BOOKING PROBLEMS - Provided the same information to Viator and aloha sunshine tours several times (birth dates for the flight..) I received an email the day before that the package was cancelled with no other information. Which sent me into a spiral because I was boarding the flight to Lihue. Turns out they only booked 1 of the 5 people that I paid for. Never received flight information even after I paid until I called about the cancellation. I was lied to and said that I didn’t receive flight information because I hadn’t paid. They finally fixed it all and I finally received flight information for everyone in the party. The tour bus driver was 15 minutes late picking up from the airport. I called to inquire and I got snapped at about “Lihue traffic” only to have that contradicted by the tour bus driver. Driver said there was ZERO traffic and just said they were running late. Extremely EXTREMELY stressful to book through Viator. I spent $18K on my entire trip and for this part of the trip to experience so many problems, was enough to give anyone a stroke. I saved for years to get to this point to take my family to Pearl Harbor. Not worth it to book this way. Communication was absolutely a dumpster fire. My two friends booked this with us and they had absolutely zero problems with the booking. Guess I got lucky. The driver for aloha sunshine tours, Leena, was an absolute gem- kind and knowledgeable. However there was some stress involved with getting back to the airport on time. We barely made it back to catch our flights back to Kauai. Time management was not on her radar. Pearl Harbor and all of that was absolutely amazing. The tour driver was kind. I would not use Viator again.
