Keith - Traveled, January 2024
My first experience with an organized tour like this. Expense alone will limit future trips. Much more walking than my wife was prepared for. This alone reduced her enjoyment. Tour guide was very knowledgeable and thorough with his planning and execution. Andrew has a fun personality and very personable. One item that disappointed me was the shuttle from airport to resort at both ends

Insights Tours are always amazing and this one was no exception. Nice balance of free time to relax and experience Hawaii on your own with visits to places on the islands to experience the culture. Learned a lot of Hawaii’s history throughout our visit. Overall a lovely experience and would highly recommend if you want to visit Hawaii and learn more about the islands.

Everything went according to schedule and the tour was well organized. I learned so much at the Gunstock Ranch; the pineapple farm; the coffee plantation; Pearl Harbor; and the Maui Ocean Center. The Legends of Hawaii Luau on the Big Island is a must do. Andrew our tour director was very thoughtful and most knowledgeable about Hawaiian history and culture. I had s great time and this was my best vacation ever!

The tour overall was great. The accommodations on Maui were particularly outstanding. I found working with Tourradar pleasant, however, an issue with the transport upon arrival and departure was changed earlier this year without notifying me about it until a week before the trip started. Since I booked the tour last year I believed it was paid in the package tour. I was notified that a credit was issued the day before the tour started.
