    Review of: ‪Diamond Head State Monument
    Busy but beautiful views.
    We caught the bus out to Diamond Head, which was very easy from Waikiki. We got there at 9am and it was pretty busy. The walk up the mountain was fairly easy, only getting a little more tiring once you hit the stairs. The views were spectacular.

    Review of: Pearl Harbor National Memorial
    Great for teaching WWII history
    We were advised to plan for most of a day, and this turned out to be true. Be ready for crowds of visitors. Docents were helpful.

    Review of: Iolani Palace
    Great tour, history many people don't know
    Our family really enjoyed the docent-led tour at Iolani Palace. I highly recommend it when visiting Hawaii to learn more about the history of the Hawaiian monarchy and the time period when the US annexed Hawaii. Very interesting history that many Americans don't know.

    Snorkeling in a tropical fish tank
    Expensive but worth it because this is a unique and magical snorkeling experience. Exquisitely beautiful bay.

    Review of: Makapuu Lighthouse Trail
    Great family trail
    Great trail for kids. Next time we would go a little earlier as there is not much shade and it gets hot but stick it out till the top- the view are phenomenal! Lots of little stopping points on the way up too. Be sure to pack water and sunscreen!

    Review of: USS Arizona Memorial
    Very moving
    Everyone who visits Honolulu/Oahu should see Pearl Harbor, especially the Arizona Memorial. You are literally visiting a tomb, and the thought that over 1,000 Americans died here is very moving. The inscribed list of names really brings it all home. Two caveats: get your tickets early, and be on time for the ferry. We felt sorry for one family ahead of us--they had tickets for 10:00 and missed that time (ours was 10:30) so they were out. I recommend using a tour so you don't have to worry about it.

    Review of: Koko Crater Railway Trail
    Not a cake walk
    This is not a cake walk. This trail is intense, steep and not 100% safe. Said that, if you are willing, I would recommend 100% for you to go. The views are just incredible and the sense of “accomplishment” it’s kind o nice.
    This is not an official trail, and they recommend you go at your own risk. The rails are not maintained and it really quite steep.

    Review of: Waikiki Beach
    Popular and trending beach
    This is a beautiful beach, but it’s a busy beach, surrounded by fancy hotels. We got there early, after coming from the Diamond head hike, about 8 am and it was perfect, not too busy at all. However, by the time we left (11am) it was already quite busy. Nothing wrong with that, it just depends on what kind of beach you like. This was the only beach I saw that offers tons of seating, shade etc from the hotels to rent. It was quite nice to watch the surf lessons and walk around waikiki area afterwards. It’s worth going for sure, just be aware of the type of beach this is.

    Review of: Battleship Missouri Memorial
    The bookend to the war
    Seeing the Arizona and the Missouri together, you are seeing the bookends of the war in the Pacific for the US--the Arizona, where it started, and the Missouri, where it ended. This is a BIG ship, and you can spend several hours on it if you visit each deck and room. There are restrooms on board, which makes it nice, and several places to eat at the dock.

    Review of: Bishop Museum
    Great museum
    The Bishop Museum is a 3-story, beautiful building with an elevator. It is dedicated to the history of the Polynesian people and is very interesting. Exhibits cover the religion and lifestyle of ancient Hawaii and other islands, and the more modern history of Hawaii. The exhibits are beautifully displayed. We were so glad we visited.

    Review of: Honolulu Museum of Art
    Another great stop on our downtown Honolulu night.
    We spent a fun Friday evening in downtown Honolulu, as we utilized the bus service from our hotel. Our initial stop was at a downtown brewery, and then we migrated to this lovely art museum before a cocktail night at Bar Leather Apron. The artwork provided a nice respite between our libations, and it made us wishing that we had more time. However, it was pertinent to have reservations for our meals.

    The museum provided lockers for our belongings, and the exhibits offered a valuable insight into the history of indigenous cultures in relation to Hawaii.

    Review of: Ala Moana Center
    Huge mall - needs better signposting
    The mall is huge with plenty of parking and hundreds of shops. The shops are a mix of very upmarket retailers, department stores, food stores and everything else you could think of. I would venture that there is something there for everyone. We actually walked from central Waikiki - a pleasant walk along Ala Moana Boulevard, but parking is plentiful (and I think it’s free) and there are public transport options from Waikiki.

    There was a wide range of food choices, including a large food court. The centre and walkways are mainly in the open air.

    The only negative I would say is that there could be more signposting. I got lost several times (maybe that’s just me). We worth a visit.
