Review of the $35 LeaLea and Waikiki Trolley pass, covering Oahu routes, stops, value, parking, sightseeing, and practical booking tips.
“Very disappointing. First lack of communication where to park. I went to the Royal Hawaiian Center where you get the trolley and they charged $2.50 for 20 min. Parking more expensive then trolley. The trolley to Diamond Head was basically a bunch of bus stops. Our driver, was not understable and lacked knowledge.”
