Polynesian Culture Adventure plus! - Started a three day bus tour with Polynesian adventure. Every day was an unexpected joy and adventure. Our bus driver, Kimoke’o was such a delight,very informative, funny, caring and respectful. Polynesian adventure may have been the company, but their driver definitely made the trip unbelievable. We got to see Kauai through Oahu with a lot of little extra side trips learning the Polynesian culture. I came away from those three days knowing so much more than I had ever expected to thanks to Kimoke’o. And thank you, Polynesian Adventure bus tour booked through Norwegian cruise line..

Why bother? - The negative experience started immediately. The printed directions assumed that we were flying in on Hawaiian and therefore arriving at terminal one. This is even though the tour company arranged our flights. In fact we flew on Southwest which lands at terminal two. That meant about 30 minutes of scrambling around, trying to figure out where to catch the tour bus. In a reverse kind of way it did not matter much because the bus itself was about an hour late. Our first stop was at the visitor center. The guy, who was also the driver, went well, but explained absolutely nothing about what to expect when entering the premises. Instead of telling us what was available to see, he simply mumbled something about getting into a standby line or a boat to the USS Arizona memorial. That was all very interesting but what he did not mention is that this is also an area where you can actually go onto to a submarine. Since he said nothing about it and we used up all of our time at the other end of the premises we missed it completely. I don’t understand why he simply would not have said that those wishing to see the memorial should go to the left from the entrance and those wishing to tour the submarine should go to the right. Simple enough. But apparently too complicated for the driver. The next stop was at the aviation museum. he went to some links to explain how to get to the lunch that was served for everybody, but did not bother to mention that this was going to be a stop dedicated to the aviation museum. We figured it out, but not without asking. All of the areas where the bus had to park were quite some distance from the museums and the directions to get from the bus to the museums were extremely convoluted. Frankly, I would strongly recommend that before booking this tour, people take a serious look arranging their own flights and Uber to the Pearl Harbour site, and their own entry tickets. For what we got, the price was outrageous and in my view, we did not get very much. I can certainly understand if the many positive reviews for this really reflected the experience at the actual exhibits. They really are terrific. But not with this tour company.
