Very enjoyable way to spend a few hours in Hawaii! The crew was attentive and enthusiastic! No jaded attitudes like some locals react to tourists. I live here so I have witnessed this behavior many times. The historical narrator was excellent and the musician was top notch! Wonderful singing and song selection! Will definitely go again when we have visitors and anytime I feel like being out on the turquoise water to remember why we moved here!
