Review summary

My husband and I enjoy cruising with Princess because of the stellar service we receive from them every time we book; they're exceptional in their service onboard from the dining, cabin, photo, etc to the activites and entertainment. We have sailed over 90 days with them on several different itineraries and will continue to choose them for our travel/vacation needs.

Great port, I've visited before and enjoyed it. Pick-up an excursion off the ship that took us around to close by attractions, (i.e., Local farmers market, Rainbow Falls & Mauna Macadamia Farm).

Love Honolulu. No excursion this. Friends live in the area and took us out to Lanikai for a hike. Glad we had an extended port time.

Great! My hubby & I took a local bus around the island. Not much was happening because of a legal holiday (Columbus Day) and many places closed early.
