Nice Tour

Reviewed by: KathyS, 2014/05/21

I loved the itinerary on this tour and our tour guide Greg was very knowledgeable. The only draw back on this tour was that you were crammed into a 12 seat passenger van. Very uncomfortable for getting in and out and not good for viewing sites as you drove along. The summer house and palace tours were excellent!

Tale of Two Palaces History Tour - Iolani and Queen Emmas Summer Palaces

Reviewed by: Sandra, Sydney , 2014/01/05

We found this tour very, very interesting. We learnt alot about the history of the Hawaiian Royal family from our guide. Queen Emma's Summer Palace was really beautiful and well looked after. I was surprised at the amount of artifacts and original furniture that had been collected. The Iolani Palace was also really interesting. The Palace (inside and out) is really beautiful and there is so much that can be learned of the history of the Royal family and you can imagine what it would have been like when the Kings and Queens ruled the islands. I particularly liked the room where Queen Lili'uokalani's quilt is kept. We thoroughly enjoyed this tour and would recommend it to anyone visiting the islands.

A TALE OF TWO PALACES

Reviewed by: Gerry, 2012/05/26

An extremely interesting tour and very informative. It gives you an opportunity to see the Summer House and Iolani Palace of Hawaii's royalty. The audio tour in Iolani Palace was excellent. It would have been nice to have been allowed to take photographs inside the Summer House and Iolani Palace but perfectly understandable why this is denied. Excellent tour and well worth joining for anyone interested in Hawaii's history
