If I had it to do over....

Posted on: 2016/07/16

We had two days and one night in Oahu. We mainly went to see Pearl Harbor. Decided the best use of our time was a customized circle island tour. Pros - on time, clean van, pleasant driver. Cons - Spent the first 15 minutes debating whether or not we had paid for a full day tour vs half day. Resolved. In advance, we reviewed the standard circle island tours offered, researched each stop, made a list of what was of most interest to us and presented that to the driver when he asked what we wanted to see. He interjected his opinion (and I think preferences), skipped over things we wanted to see, somewhat criticized our choices by saying the Byodo-In Temple was a tourist trap, wasted our time on a hike to see a waterfall at a garden and then insisted we needed to stay on time and had us turn around about 5 minutes from reaching the waterfall to leave. In hind sight, we should have just walked the streets of Waikiki. Probably could have gotten a better tour out of a taxi service.
