We were met at the airport in Kona by a very professional curteous person who assisted us to collect our bags and get to the shuttle to the fairmont orchid hotel. The service was efficient, pleasant, timely and courteous.
The return to the airport 6 days later was even better. We were picked up on time, delviered to the airport, met by a 'Greeting' person, who checked our bags and got us upgraded to exit row seats while we simply waited to check in. The service was brilliant and I would recommend it to anyone.

I used Veltra to reserve a shuttle. I was apprehensive as I was traveling alone. Having previously lived on the Big Island, I'm well aware of "island time" and lack of promptness and delivery from transportation here. I was quoted DOUBLE through other carriers, and chose Veltra/Hawaiian Activities due to their cost. I was given service through Roberts Hawaii which is fantastic! They were waiting when I arrived at the airport and I was the ONLY one on the bus going to Hapuna. Upon leaving, they were at the hotel on time and I once again was the only one on the bus. VERY happy with the service!!!

Great service, I was the only one on the shuttle to and from the airport, so it was incredibly cheap and fast, the best shuttle price I could find, and they were prompt and responsible!
Shuttle was clean.
My plane was five hours late arriving, but the shuttle kept track and came at 1 am in the morning to pick me up. (There were two areas for pick up, I wish they called on my cell because I was at the wrong spot for 15 minutes and tired, but that was the only hiccup).
I highly recommend!

Our greeter was just outside the security terminal at Kona airport. She was holding a sign with our name on it. She was on-time, very friendly and helpful. She welcomed us to the Island, called us by our firest names and presented the Lei's over our heads. She even directed us where to go to get our luggage.
The Lei's were large, colorful and full. My concern was the condition the flowers were in. They appeared old, and wilted. For $80.00 I expected fresh flowers. We cared for them when we got to our condo and use them the next night at a Luau. They were not very pretty by then however.

When you arrive in Hawaii, you might have the image of being welcomed with a lei, but recently that has become less common, so I signed up for this service as a surprise. They were very happy, so I think it was a great start to the trip. The price is a bit on the higher side, but the staff's response was good. You don't need to speak English to be okay.
ハワイに着いたら、レイで迎えてくれるというイメージがあると思いますが、最近はそんなことが少なくなっているので、このサービスはサプライズで申込みました。
とても喜んでくれたので、旅の初めにはよかったと思います。
少し値段は高めですが、スタッフの対応もよかったです。
英語ができなくても大丈夫です。

I secretly ordered a lei service for my friend, but they didn't realize it was a surprise (laughs). The fresh flower lei was beautiful, but I wondered what to do with it after receiving it. I would love to know what others do after receiving a lei.
友達に内緒でレイサービスを頼みましたが、友達にサプライズと気づいてもらえず(苦笑)でした。
生花のレイは素敵でしたが、もらった後にどうしようと思いました。レイをもらった後に皆さんはどうしているのかまで教えてもらえたらと思いました。

I very much enjoyed the unique oppurunity to be greeted in Hawaii by a Hawaiian native. The lei greeting was fantastic, albeit, I was not expecting to have to walk through the whole terminal to find the greeter. I still highly recommend this for any first timer, honeymooners and if you're in a group. This is an excellent way to start a vacation and you can create memories right off the start. The lei was very beautiful and the scent was heavenly, my only wish was that I had received instruction on how to maintain the lei so that it would not fall apart and then wither.

Having grown up in the islands, receiving a flower lei was a custom I was used to. This being my partners first trip to the islands...it was an added treat! He is a great lover of flora and fauna and the lei greeting was a perfect start to his memorial 1st trip.
I am sure we will return again someday, and hope to make the lei greeting a part of those plans too.
Oh, it was a total surprise for him, and he was well pleased! Our service was prompt and our greeter very friendly (as we found everyone on the island)!

I found Hawaii Activities on the internet and went with it. I was a little worried that I was not going to get what I paid for but I was more than pleasantly surprised. When we arrived our Greeter was there with the sign just like the instructions said they would be. It was a simple pleasure for my family, especially my daughter. The woman who greeted us was beautiful and as kind as anyone we've ever met! We couldn't have asked for a better welcome to Hawaii. Thank you!

Excellent suprise for someone coming to Hawaii. Everyone daydreams about receiving a flower lei when they go to Hawaii and with this service it can happen. We took our mother in law to Hawaii for her first time and set this up without her knowledge. She sure was surprised when we arrived in Kona!

My wife had been to Hawaii once before and did not get a lei greeting then. (This was before we had met). I wanted to surprise her, so I set up the service without her knowledge. When we deplaned and walked toward baggage claim, I saw the greeter and pointed my wife in her direction. She was completely surprised and this was the perfect start to a wonderful vacation. The leis were beautiful and the young lady presenting them was great ambassador for Hawaii.
