Traveler reviews
A great time
Nice trip. We loved the small group size and engaging conversations with our driver. They were very friendly, and the trip felt almost private, unlike being herded around. The driver was knowledgeable and pointed out great restaurants, shops, and points of interest along the way.
Great Excursion
Sharing was a great drive and guide. Super relatable as well as knowledgeable. We had a great time. Took as to excellent sites, and the day in the canyon was not to be missed.
Good tour.
Good Tour, Weimea canyon is the reason the for the tour the other stuff is just filler. Guide was very friendly although surprisingly not knowledgeable on subject matter. Lunch was in last half hour of tour rather than lunchtime.
Canyon Tour
Fabulous views of the canyon, highly recommend! The tour guide wasn’t able to answer a lot of our questions which was disappointing.
the Best Guide Shaning！
Shaning was an outstanding guide for our Waimea Canyon tour. He was knowledgeable, well-organized, and made the day both informative and enjoyable while keeping us perfectly on schedule to return to the ship. His thoughtful tips and friendly energy truly made the experience memorable. Highly recommend!
