“The most horrible thing about this is that the company called me prior to the service date to tell me to be at the park at 7:30(opening time 8am). Ok cool, we go to the park at 6:30 to be safe bc we are not locals and understand this is a popular excursion. However, the company never mentioned to be I would be picking up my snorkel equipment outside of the park. Outside of the park. I had to say it again bc with a family of 6 to purchase something that is not located in the park is a CRUCIAL AND VITAL pertinent information. So- there was no snorkel…”

“The “company” was an hour late for pick up. They drove us to Hanauma Bay but had to borrow cash from my 11 year old to get in to drop us off. We had two hours to wait to snorkel. It’s basically an overpriced uber. Save money by just taking an actual uber and then getting there ON TIME and it’s the exact same thing. Don’t waste your money.”

“I was told it included transpiration, it did not! But even worse is when I "Uber" my trip the officials at Hanauma Bay did not recognize the registration I printed from Viator. The only good experience was the officials at the Park did allow us to enter but I had to prove I had ID. Very disappointed !!!”
