If you're getting groceries or something, when it's time to pay with your card, many will ask if you want cash back. That's one way to get cash, without paying ATM fees.

I can confirm the Aulani Luau is very Disney-tastic!! Great food, drink and yes! You get to see Mickey & Minnie do a dance or two with the dancers. But my personal favorite luau is the TOA family luau up on the north shore!! Super family friendly, excellent food, beautiful location, and you get a pass to explore the Waimea valley the day of your luau 🌺

Go to outlets, 9.most guided tours, 10.luau yes or no? Yes. Pick the one that meets your needs. Paradise Cove good, aulani,etc…, 11. Aka Moana timeshare booths disguised as info booth, 12.lack of mainland banks leads to high atm fees from Hawaiian bank.

I too recommend Paradise Cove if you are looking to choose a luau. Its location is second to none and there are loads of fun activities on the beach before you start your buffet meal. And you get live entertainment with your meal, before moving on to the main show in the grassed area with tiered seating.

I have some advice on Oahu Luau's! The best Luau I ever attended was when a friend invited me to a Local family celebration Luau. The food was amazing. Much better then the commercial Luau's. Germain's and Paradise are about the same. Drinks, dinner with Kalua Pig etc, and some Hula including Fire dancing. They all seem to have a certain level of good comedy included. The best commercial Luau I attended was at the Polynesian Cultural Center. The dinner at the Center is about the same with Kalua Pig, Lomi Lomi Salmon, Poi, Hawaiian style macaroni salad, and the usual Luau dishes. There is a lot more at the Center including the History and progression of the Polynesians culture and the Hula presentations are by far the best. They cover pretty much every location influenced by Polynesia around the globe. Hope this helps. ALOHA

Thanks for posting this video, lessons learned. I was stationed at Barbers Point NAS for almost two years 67-68, first time back was 2014 and again in 2018. I was amazed how crowded Oahu and Waikiki had become. We did a bunch of touristy things, USS Arizona Memorial both times, Dole plantation, ride to the North Shore, Mali Beach. For me the best part of our trip was heading to Barbers Point Naval Aviation Museum, which had to close a few years ago because of a dispute with the State over the space the Museum was using. Reservations were required, we were picked up outside the Hangar area in a military Humvee and driven around the flight line. I was able to peek in the Hangar's windows where my old shop was located. After leaving the tour we drove to my old barracks which the State converted into low income housing. That whole day brought back so many great memories.

A personal pet peeve of mine about Oahu tourist traps/"scams" is about Kuoloa Ranch. In general, I have no issue with the Ranch, what they offer, and if course the scenery is gorgeous. However, it seems like everyone who visits and does a video promotes it as "where they filmed Jurassic Park." False!!! There was one, two-minute scene from the movie filmed there and the majority of the movie was filmed on a different island entirely; Kauai. I know that if I shelled out for a Jurassic Park tour and then found later that this wasn't really true, I'd feel pretty let down.

The fact that none of these are actual ‘scams’ really speaks volumes about Hawaii. One thing I’d respond to is the tour busses. Id rather there be 60 people getting off a bus instead of 30 rental cars on the road. Don’t forgot a lot of people are from different places/countries who may not be comfortable navigating on their own. A counter tip i would have is to learn the bus system, it is very accessible and cheap. You can even go around the island using the bus. 🤙🏽

So true about Ala Moana shopping centre. It's gone downhill since I was last there 10 years ago. This time there was no signage at all telling you where the stores were, no directories, only ones advertising Asian stores, in Japanese or Chinese. I couldn't even tell which level I was on or how to get out of there and back to the street. The information desks as you said have been taken over by time share vendors. On my second attempt at navigating this store, I eventually found a customer information office and paper maps, it was hidden on the lowest level next to the car parking and I only stumbled across it by accident. Also the whole place has such a strange layout. Rows of stores that are only accessible from the carpark but not inside the centre; and the food court is like a trap, also hard to access. The International Marketplace on the other hand is very beautiful, lots of open air space and gardens and a great stage area for hula performances etc. And everything is easy to find there.

If you got sick from tuna poke, it’s not because it was frozen but because it was likely temperature abused at some point after leaving the ocean. When tuna is geld at warm temperatures long enough it will form histamine and that causes illness in humans. Glad youre ok!

Regarding tip 12, the ATM fees, the answer is a simple one on this (with some prep work before your trip). Be a member of a credit union that is part of the co-opcreditunion network on the mainland. And, when in Hawaii, use credit unions that are also members of said network.

The beach front hotel strip thing is definitely a trap with sites like expedia. I had them do that to me in Vegas. They advertise places like the strat being on the strip, but anyone who has been there knows it's not. Even the county doesn't consider it on the strip. I haven't checked expedia for Hawaii, but I guarantee they do the same thing. Also the waves thing is definitely a problem. I am an Oregonian and love the coast and it unfortunately happens a lot, tourists will go to take their pictures and get hit by a big wave and swept away.

@lavonbowling5580 3 ай бұрын

Staying a few streets back from the beach will certainly save you money for your room , but it comes at a cost too. When you do want to go to the beach, you then have to lug everything such as towels, coolers, or umbrellas city across city streets and traffic for several blocks which is a royal pain in the butt (especially if you have children). Not to mention if you need to go to your room to use the restroom or get a forgotten object, you have to go back through the traffic. A beachfront hotel is soooo much easier! Also, don’t get the ocean view rooms!!!! If you can see just a sliver of ocean, that counts as ocean view and you pay a premium. I actually prefer the city view rooms on Waikiki because you’re never in the room during the day when you can see the ocean, and at night the ocean is pitch black. City view though gives you a great view of the city lights and residences that are on the side of the mountains.

Jay ,speaking of Luaus , next time you are in Waikiki go to the Rock A Hula Show. It’s walking distance from every hotel in Waikiki, it’s a full on buffet style dining followed by a show in a 700 auditorium and follows a time line from 1920’s to the present. Featuring Michael Jackson and Elvis impersonators and Melina Brown , I guarantee you won’t be disappointed.
