I love the island of Oahu for all the outdoor activities she offers: hiking, swimming, canoe paddling, etc. But there's more to like about the Hawaiian Islands than natural beauty. The history and mythology of the Hawaiian people captivate locals and visitors alike. I enjoy learning about them and sharing my knowledge. When family or friends visit, I take them around to the places I enjoy (sightseeing, restaurants, activities) or, if time does not permit, I draw up itineraries for them to explore on their own. From President Obama's favorite shave ice stand to hidden waterfalls and spectacular vistas, I will help you discover way more of the island than you could driving a rental car. I speak some Spanish and would particularly enjoy touring Spanish speakers around. ¡Bienvenidos! Les invito viajar conmigo.

In addition to the USS Arizona Memorial, you'll visit the USS Missouri, site of Japan's surrender, and your choice of USS Bowfin Submarine and Submarine Museum OR Pearl Harbor Aviation Museum. I will give you tips on how best to experience the USS Arizona Memorial. You will also visit Punchbowl National Cemetery, Iolani Palace, King Kamehameha Statue and Mission Houses.
