Great video! My perfect Honolulu vacation is staying at the Ala Moana Hotel, corner room, high floor, sunsets are amazing at a reasonable price. Favourite beach...Ala Moana Park, more locals fewer tourists.... Favourite place to eat... Ala Moana Mall, Nordstroms, BBQ chicken salad for around $10.00. I have stayed at the Sheraton Waikiki, entry level room gets you a view on a low floor of the HVAC system.... never again.
Visited Oahu from UK this summer for our 15th wedding anniversary, it's pretty much half way around the world for us but we loved it! Did a submarine tour on Waikki beach, snorkelling, circle island tour. It's so clean but a bit pricey in the Waikki area but well worth visiting for a bucket list.
@@yaboirolly It wasn't cheap but would not describe it as luxury. I would say if you don't stay right on the beach in Waikiki (we stayed at the Hilton four star property a block back) and it was noticeably cheaper. The tours we did were not too expensive, we booked through tripadvisor in advance around $80 per person but the submarine was more expensive. I would say for the two of us we spent around $1000-1500 for the week on trips, food and other miscellaneous things including an expensive meal at one of the top steakhouses which cost around $250-300 for two of us with tip). The hotel I think cost around $1400 for the week.
Great video, Chris! This is a complete guide to Oahu from transportation, places to stay, places to visit, places to eat. A must watch if you are traveling to the beautiful island of Oahu. Thank you, Chris .
Absolutely LOVE the Ice Creams and Sorbet's at Henry's Place🤩 We go almost every day to re-stock and the Fresh Mango Ice Cream and Guava Sorbet are our FAVORITES!
Thanks! You make me want to visit there! You are a great travel guide so filled with information on lodging ,restaurants snacks ,activities beaches and more. I also think your honest and you have a sense of humor and fun.
Hi Chris. Fabulous job on the Oahu Travel Guide. . Very detailed information even if it's good or bad. Viewer's should have a pretty good idea what we have to offer as a tourist destination. I'm might have to call you a Kama'aina now because you been to Oahu so many times and know so much about the island. Mahalo and take care.😀🤙🤙🤙
Chris, I will ALWAYS think the world of you because You introduced me to Byodo-in which is the very first thing we visited our first day…and we went back twice in the remaining six days we were there…we just loved it…Also, Definitely agree about the Polynesian Cultural Center! While it was pricey for the four of us ($700 plus) IT WAS SO VERY WORTH IT!!
Love your video! Oahu is on my bucket list being a Magnum fan growing up in the 70's and 80's. I'm used to Island time having grown up on Manitoulin , Northern Ontario. Lots of great info. Thanks.
@@joefisher1972 Robins nest WAS just a few miles from Waikiki. Last time I was there they were replacing it with other high end dwellings. You could still get around back and swim in the tidal pool though which was VERY cool! Not sure about Robins nest location from New Series.
We stayed a couple times at Twin Fin, formerly known as Aston Waikiki, and it was absolutely one of our fav places to stay in Waikiki!! Great location, great staff, beautiful rooms and they left us a nice beach bag with sunscreen and other little treats!! Saint Patrick's Day parade is a fav, and if i could recommend a great thing for travelers to do, it would be Pearl Harbor, and the circle bus tours, which is a day long trip that stops at places like the North Shore, waterfalls you can swim in, and the Dole Plantation!! Must do!!! We did the submarine excursion as well, and although it was quite pricey, it was well worth it!! Cheeseburger in Paradise was one of our fav eateries, and also cheesecake factory! There is almost always live entertainment at the Royal Hawaiian courtyard, and don't get me started on the shave ice!! Drooling 😋
Agree w/U 110% on luaus, Chris. Being born/raised here, have taken part in all sorts of luaus....Wedding, graduations, first birthdays, retirement, etc., etc.. LOTS of hands-on, back breaking, intensive labor. Directions being shouted out, sweaty & wet. All age ranges pitch-in...>6-75. Younger ones are KP duty w/siblings, cousins, aunties....
Chris, if you haven't tried Big Chief's Luaha/Fia Fia (put on by the same group), I would highly recommend checking it out. We've been to a few, but that's the only one we have really enjoyed and end up going back to nearly everytime we are in Hawaii.
I've used Turo 3 times in Hawaii and it was awesome every time, much cheaper than the rental car companies. I just made sure the people I rented from had lots of great reviews.
How much cheaper by Turo? Thought about it, but I hear horror stories about AirBnB, so i figured Turo would be the same. I don't want to drive someone's used car. My 7 day rental from Budget costed $300.
@@Vagabond_Etranger what do you think you’re driving when you rent from a rental car company? You’re driving a used car that MANY more people have driven. Price will depend on what time of year you go, but last time I was on Oahu I rented a very nice VW Tiguan for $49 a day.
I have experience with Turo in Detroit, MI and Los Angeles, CA. Both experiences were good. It is just like airbnb, you can see ratings and select superhosts. They have their built-in insurance option in the app, the minimum one is cheap but practically it is almost of no use ($3000 dollar out-of-pocket max). The other options have lower out of pocket max, but not so cheap. If you have any other way to cover up for the insurance (such as through your credit cards)- I found Turo to be a better option than traditional rental cars.
So many things are more crowded now. I did the Diamond Head hike in 1989 and only a few people were doing the hike. Now you need a reservation. Angels Landing at Zion now has a lottery. I was at Angels Landing in 2011 and you could just go up. I don't think they even had lights in the tunnel at Diamond Head in 1989. It was pitch black walking through there if I remember correctly. We were leaving the Diamond Head crater after the hike heading for the car tunnel and an elderly Swedish couple was walking out to go catch a bus. my dad stopped and picked them up. We gave them a ride to the bus stop.
@@YellowProductions Also, there are a lot more people in the world compared to 30-40 or 50 years and a greater percentage of those people can afford to travel. In the 70s and 80s people didn't fly around as much as they do now.
That is the Epitome of "Aloha spirit"...helping others in need, regardless of situation. As song lyrics say..."You gotta live Aloha...the heartbeat of this land"
Awesome video as per usual, thank you!! I think you just made me decide to book the trip! 😆 Is there a preferred payment in most places credit card versus cash? Thank you!
those are some beautiful shots of Oahu in the beginning, what video did you get those from if it's found here on UA-cam? Or did you get those shots yourself?
Thanks, Chris. Loved watching this video. I am traveling alone with 2 young kids and wanted to know if it is safe to use TheBus from the airport to the hotel at 10:30pm?
Awesome! And hmm... I've never ridden the bus at the hour... remember that on the bus you can't take "check in" size luggage... with 2 kids I'd imagine you're doing more than carry-on
Great video. FYI, buy your sunscreen in Hawaii. There are restrictions on the type of sunscreen. Many will kill the coral, so they restrict the types that can be sold or used. Isn't the Marriott in Waikiki a "Resort & Spa?" I.e. no lounge. I stayed once and was disappointed in the missing lounge.☹️ I have to have my unlimited diet coke.😂 Diamond head hike can't be hard, the old Japanese tourists hike it in heels and dresses.😂
I didn’t get culture shock when I went to Hawaii but I did get culture shock when I went to their airport 😂 it felt like you’re waiting outside for a bus or something. I wasn’t even sure if I was at the gate or trespassing on the landing pad lol
Heading to Wakiki/Oahu in April. Glad you reinforced my decision not to go to a Luau. Spending $400 for my fiance and I do see a cool show and have buffet food. I'd much rather do something, like go to the Polynesian Cultural Center. Then go to a nice restaurant of your choosing and have a $100 pp meal. Like a steakhouse.
Chris- In a couple weeks I’ll be spending 24 hrs in Waikiki, staying at the Marriott Waikiki Beach Resort. Do you have any recommendations for oceanfront fine dining for dinner in the area? We can travel by foot or by ride share. Thanks!
It amazes me how countries like the USA, mainland Europe, Australasia etc are geared up to accommodate tourists and make their tourist areas clean, well maintained and with good transport infrastructure. This is not the case when we look at the UK.
Do you know where you can buy flower lei's at a reasonable price? We are staying at Aulani and there's 6 of us. We can't take them home with us so don't want to spend more than we need to.
Tim Ho Wan is expensive. Go to Sing Cheong Yuan in Chinatown. Royal Kitchen sucks. Personally, I wouldn't eat anything on the boardwalk, except Marukame Udon.
First, I love your videos! You are so thorough and thoughtful. However, as a Hawaiian, born and raised here. Would you be able to add a little more safety and general practice to your videos about Hawaii. Just like the the warning on Sandy’s, safety on Hawaii beaches (shore breaks, follow posted signs, stay away from the monk seals and turtles). Hiking (follow posted signs, wild pigs, and trash, don’t liter). Those ideas would be much appreciated. And again, love your videos!
I'm a very experienced body surfer, surfing the North shore hundreds of times. I broke my ankle at Sandy Beach once due to the shore break but went back in for 15 minutes more until I couldn't take the pain. Was in a cast for 6 months. Even for experts you can get hurt but especially rookies.
FYI... Honolulu=Sheltered/protected bay=Hoh-noh-loo-loo, Not Hanalulu. Hana is town in E Maui Haleiwa=Hah-lay-ee-vah=House of the iwa(frigate bird) Waimea=Why-may-ah=Red water Not Waiamea. Also the names of towns on Kauai & Hawaii isle aka Big Island. Waimea Falls was used by James Cook to replenish fresh water/fruits-1778

Giovanni’s on the North Shore serves the best garlic shrimp! Mahalo for the recommendation!

Love eating the shells, they’re cooked with the shells on so all that garlic-y flavor goes into the shells, and adds so much more flavor.
