      Traveller Tips


      Less expensive than renting and car and navigating the Island yourself.
      Honolulu is hot so time your stop buses are approximately 1 hour apart and there is not much shade to hide from the sun.

      Red Bus
      Carrie_B, May 2023
      Excellent experience. Affordable price and very knowledgeable tour guides. Big Tony is an outstanding tour guide!
      Long wait time-trolleys over crowded
      TINA_G, May 2023
      My husband and I tried to get on the first red line bus. I bought the 4 day all line passes thinking this would be the best value. "Hopping on hopping off" is only a figure of speech. Most of the time the busses are too full to even get on. Not sure if this was the best value. If you have unlimited time and don't mind waiting and hour for each bus then get it. I think the HI public transportation is a better option.
      RJ was the best!
      Teresa_P, May 2023
      RJ was an amazing drive/tour guide! Highly recommend for the views! Nice way to see the sights without driving yourself.
      Beautiful scenery with a great driver!!
      Jennifer_O, May 2023
      Kama was a wonderful guide. Enjoyed the blue route a lot the scenery was absolutely beautiful up the coast. Kama played his ukulele an sang when we stopped at the Blow hole!
      Seeing the beautiful...
      John_W, May 2023
      Seeing the beautiful beaches and cliffs. Listening to Oli tell us stories and legends. He was so friendly and knowledgeable.
      Good narration and way to get overall tour
      Cathy_S, May 2023
      History and narration provided by drivers was good and very helpful for a quick way to see the sights. From that, we decided on where we wanted to explore in more depth. With only 4 days in Waikiki, this was very efficient.
      Surpassed Expectations
      Dimas_H, May 2023
      Mike the guide know and lot and was very funny. Warns us of tourist traps and even gave recommendations for stuff do after the tour. We indeed see a lot of turtles!

      Natalie_Z, May 2023
      I got all lines 1-day pass. Trolley experience started very well with the blue line. The driver was great, really funny - it was pleasurable tour. Then we took a pink line, which was ok too. Finally we wanted to take green line to go to Diamond head trailhead. Viator website said the last green departures at 2.00pm so we were on a bus stop at 1.50pm. We waited and waited but the trolley didn’t come. We checked the official website and it had different info, it said the last trolley is at 2.32pm. So we continued waiting. Finally the trolley came at around 2.40pm - by that time we had been waiting for already 50 min (with a small kid!!!). The worst thing is that the driver said the next stop would be the last stop and he’s not going to Diamond Head trailhead any more. We were very frustrated, texted the seller but all we could hear is that we should have checked the official website for the schedule. The official website never said it doesn’t make the whole round trip at 2.32pm…
      Never book Viator without all the facts
      Mary_J, May 2023
      When booking the blue line, was never given exact times it ran, just that the lines ran from about eight in the morning until eight or so at night. We showed up at 2:00 and were told the last blue line left at 1:30!! So we got totally cheated out of that tour!!

      It was very convenient for us since we stayed at the Ala Moana hotel. After we figured out the lines it worked for us!
      Tour around Honolulu
      aquilla_d, May 2023
      Had an awesome tour with my family on the Trolley. The driver was very knowledgeable about the sites we toured. We enjoyed the ride.
      Need more trolleys
      Ian_P, May 2023
      Day started off well with a trip on the Green line with very few problems, however, when I wanted to go on the red line there was a huge queue & I ended up in this for over an hour. Eventually I did get on a trolley & luckily got a seat but others were standing & you felt like you didn’t want to get off at any of the stops as there was no guarantee that a future trolley would have space to get on. In the end I stayed on the red line until the end & decided not to bother on any of the others. Having said that, the drivers & commentary were great, very informative.
      Good option to get around Honolulu
      Brian_P, May 2023
      Great way to get around Honolulu. We booked a multi bus ticket for 4 so we could go to Diamond Head & hit a few other places. Each line has a different route so either get a multiple line pass or make sure the one you purchase goes to the areas you want to see. There are cheaper ways to get around Honolulu but the drivers are also your your tour guides - “Z” on the Green bus was fantastic! Only negative was after purchasing the “tickets” thru Viator you have to find a local kiosk to pick up the physical ticket.
      Bill and Mo ate Exceptional Guides.
      Terry_P, May 2023
      Bill on the Blue Line and Mo on the Red Line were both exceptional tour guides. Would recommend these tours as a great introduction to Oahu.
      Breathtaking
      Tannesha_F, May 2023
      The ride up the coast was lovely and truly showed the Beauty of the island. The guide was very knowledgeable and quite funny.
      My worst nightmare
      Eduardo_B, May 2023
      Bad experience. In a trolley open bus, they make people standing on the bus. They could not accommodate all people sitting so about 10 people were standing during the trip. I decided to stop the bus because I feel the risk that somebody could get hurt. I am 77 years with knees replacement and I considered a risk of falling. Therefore I get off the bus.
      Great experience
      Hilda_C, May 2023
      The trolley was fun. Loved our tour driver! He explained everything in detail to acclimate us with the island. Thank you for a wonderful experience.
      Becka was great!
      Jeanette_Y, May 2023
      I do very much recommend riding with Becka because she was a blast and very funny and told us where to look, went slowly on the road when there were beautiful pictures to take, and showed us where all the celebrities houses were! Would definitely ride again! I do wish the trolleys were a bit higher though so you don’t have to crouch down to look at things :)
      Drivers were very...
      Robyn_N, May 2023
      Drivers were very knowledgeable about what we were seeing. Drivers drove well and safely. All our drivers were very friendly. and helpfull.
      If you don't mind standing to see the legends
      Sharon_D, May 2023
      Nice and easy way to see highlights of Honolulu but reservations don't matter and my husband had to stand along with others for over an hour or wait an hour before next trolley on Red line
