It was good
This was a good trip. The staff was good, there was inside seating to escape the sun which is helpful. I don’t think I would do it again. Everything in Hawaii is so expensive and this was exception at $500. You can see the sunset from the west of the island on the hilltop and it’s beautiful. Many can’t afford to do all the things in Hawaii because it’s all so much money above and beyond your travel/hotel. If you have the money than go but if your on a budget save it and take a drive with a bottle of wine to watch it.

Nice boat tour along the...
Nice boat tour along the Na Pali coast but expect some bumps, sea spray and possible raindrops along the way. Breathtaking views of the sea side cliffs made the tour absolutely worth it! Drinks and dinner were good. Jess and her all female crew were awesome and did their best to meet everyone’s needs and requests. Thank you for making this tour a memorable experience.😊
