Pleasant Surprise
Posted on: 2015/01/07
We were wanting to get to the Arizon memorial while in Honolulu (I mean, being an ex-pat Yank - if you're there and don't go - shame) but the typical US government website was so onerous and impossible to pin down that we were certain we'd never get a ticket for admission. Well we tried the Discovery Tour through Veltra and "voila" - a great trip, easy pick up, wonderful tour guide ("Jr")and we got to see what we needed to see as well as tiups on getting the best shots. All for about 1/3 of the other tour operators advertised locally and on-line. The twins got their junior Ranger badges and we got to make what I suppose is "the pilgramage". The only thing I could say badly is not about the tour, but about how the Park Service has commercialized almost all of the really historic sites by making it impossible to get tickets except by ordering months in advance or paying a tour compan6y to take you.

Hilton Waikiki Starlight Luau with Fire Dancers, Hula Show & Dinner Buffet / New Year's Eve Luau Special: Late Show
Good Show and Buffet
Posted on: 2015/01/03
As expected and stated...can't ask for more from a tour operator. Show itself was not as good as Polynesian Village main stage show but buffet was 1000 times better and the Hilton show (as a buffet show) was far superior. You'll need to see the Poly Village to see the various cultural elements but save the luau for this one.
