What To Expect

Ala Wai Canal

The Ala Wai Canal is an artificial waterway in Honolulu, Hawaii which serves as the northern boundary of the tourist district of Waikiki. It was created in 1928 to drain the rice paddies and swamps which would eventually become Waikiki. It also serves as a primary drainage corridor for the rivers and streams that run through central and east Honolulu. The canal runs from just northwest of Kapahulu Avenue along the length of Waikiki, then turns southwest to empty into the Pacific Ocean. Bridges cross the canal at McCully Street, Kalākaua Avenue, and Ala Moana Boulevard. Ala Wai Boulevard runs parallel to the west side of the canal in Waikiki.

We enjoyed all of the stops and notable landmarks around Waikiki. Our tour guide was messing and extremely knowledgeable regarding the rich history surrounding the island. The Diamondhead hike was absolutely beautiful, and can easily be completed within the amount of time allowed. Overall, it was a very enjoyable experience filled with perfect Waikiki Kodak moments!

We had an amazing time!!! We had our tour split up due to a big event coming to town and Shaxi wanting to give us the best experience! Well they totally did! We had Lisa for a sunset tour and she was absolutely fabulous! She was so knowledgeable and fun! It felt like we were roaming around town with a best friend! We had Michael take up to Diamond Head for the second part of the tour. He was super nice and helpful. We truly appreciate them both giving us an excellent experience! Would recommend Shaxi to anyone looking for a fun way to see the area!

The tour was amazing. I enjoyed the tour guide. However, she took photos of us which was not that many. I texted her a couple of times about the photos and she promised to send them but never did. I asked did we have to pay for the pictures and she assured me no. My friend tipped her because I did have any cash on me at the time. Overall it was a good experience.
