Here for a fun time, not a long time!!

Published on Feb, 2025

This was a lot of fun. Plenty of stops. We grabbed snacks, took beautiful pictures, stopped at local shops, everyone was so nice. Papa P is a cool dude. He was telling us fun and interesting facts. He was a good tour guide he had drinks and Mac salad to share with us. Heā€™s there to make sure you have a good time and get home safe. I will definitely come back again!! I hope you have Papa P as your tour guide too!!

Fun Day Trip with Many Highlights

Published on Feb, 2025

Itā€™s my first time here in Hawaii. Touring with the bus was fantastic! I enjoyed the tour with Papa G. He showed us so many unique places and told us the story and other interesting facts about the area, people and history. I was able to take many pictures and tasted lots of Hawaiian treats like fresh pineapple, ice-cream, macadamia nuts, and delicious coffee. At lunch time, Papa G offered all of us (with our purchased meal) homemade macaroni salad that his wife prepared. Additionally, he had a cooler on the bus with free water and juice & Hawaiian snacks (pineapple gummies & chips). Towards the end of the tour, he pulled out his guitar and sang a few songs. He really brought our group together. Our group felt like Ohana. It was a day well spent. Thank you!

Great tour!!!

Papa P gave us a great tour of the island. It was a laid back tour with lots of stops at beaches and stops with food. He had good commentary about the island and lots of history about the area.

Papa Pā€™s tour!

Published on Feb, 2025

Papa P did an amazing job showing us around the island. He knew so much about the island and had so many funny stories to tell while we were driving around the island. Lunch was delicious as well.

Aloha
