Wizard is OZ
Published on Jan, 2024
Oz was great! We took an UBER from our Hampton Inn Kapolei at 5:30 am to get to the office. The storm was not too bad. Pearl Harbor was great. Oz's tip about the movie was right on! Early start and Pearl was easy. North coast was fun. Ate at "Da Bald Guy" food truck food was great and Oz picked up the tab. Pouring rain made it more memorable. Go to the Polynesian CC just as it opened. rain was heavy now but running from hut to hut was fun. We saw presentations from: Samoa, Fiji, Tahiti and Hawaii. By 4 pm we were though ally thrilled and soaked!!!
Oz is truly a WIZARD!

My wife and I booked a Jan 8th tour. Ozzy was our great guide. The day was pouring rain but we had a wonderful time Arizona first stop. Oz made sure we was the movie first. Then drive to the north coast. We stopped at a food truck spot. He recommended "Da Bald Guy." Fantastic local food and atmosphere!!! The on to the Polynesian Cultural Center. We arrived just before it opens at 12:30. Oz oriented us and off we went. Started with Samoa then Fiji the Tahiti and finished with Hawaii!!!! The rain stopped when we left the PCC at 4 pm. Saw waterfalls on the way back due to the rain. We followed a pickup for a while that had 2 dead wild boars in the back on display, Master Card PRICELESS moment. I was short on cash so I thjink my tip was not as much as it should be. Mahalo
Best Tour Ever
Published on Dec, 2023
Polynesian Cultural Crnter a must see. Great experience, Kap at the Somoa Village was a hoot. Could not stop laughing. Despite the dreary rainy day all was forgotten with this excursion. Had 5 people on our Tour, our Driver and Guide “Pe” was terrific and shared much of the local island history and background of the areas we traveled as we circled the entire island. Pearl Harbor was somber but something not to miss. The tour also provided a fabulous lunch at Pounder’s Restaurant at the cultural center. Although excursion appeared to be expensive, it was worth every penny.
Great experience

Kimoke'o wa@ the most phenomenal tour guide on July 6, 2023 to the Polynesian Center and a tour of the North Shore of Oahu. Such incredible commentary an entertaining conversation.
The following day July 7, 2023 he drove us to Pearl Harbor and told us about the history of Dec. 7, 1941. I learned a lot and the tour of Honolulu , the Palace (haunted one) and then King Kameahmeah's castle
