![]() I can't believe how much we fit into one day. There's so much to say about this experience. The cost of the shrimp was separate, but totally worth it. From there it was off to the Kahuku Shrimp farms where we got Garlic Butter shrimp that are raised right there on the property. We also stopped at an exotic fruit stand for cold coconut and a bunch of fruits that I've never even heard of before. I still can't believe how much fun we had. Then we went to the macadamia nut farm where we sampled all of the flavors for free and even got to crack open our own nuts while we hung out with a bunch of Samoan Chiefs. They also had bottled water and those little bags of chips for snacks. We got Kona coffee in the morning with these unreal purple donuts that are made of Tarro from Hawaii. The weather was beautiful, the water was crystal clear, we saw about 6 sea turtles, hit all of the important hot spots around the island. Somehow, Miah (sp?) remembered every single persons name on the bus. They played the ukulele and sang songs three times throughout the day. They were funny, told stories about Hawaii, made us do the hula and talk to one another. Uncle Tony and Miah went out of their way to make sure that everyone was having the time of their lives. The vibe was positive, uplifting, high energy, and genuine. From the reservation staff, to the tour guide, driver, and the folks we met along the way. The people that run this tour are special and are the most genuine embodiment of "the Aloha spirit" that we have experienced since we arrived. We all exchanged info and have dinner plans tomorrow night in Waikiki. My wife and I met three awesome couples on the tour. It's not just WHAT we did on the tour, but HOW and WHO that was the real difference maker in our experience. ![]() ![]() It was a full day, but it flew by because the whole bus was having so much fun. We got picked up on time at 7:00am from the Aston hotel and from there began an all day adventure that had us back to our hotel around 5:00pm. The tour itself was just as advertised with tons of stops all around the Island of Oahu. I'm new to Tripadvisor, but I created an account just so I could share my thoughts about this awesome experience. We just completed this tour earlier today, and I've never been so inspired to write a review before. ![]()
