    This was a nice activity to do with the family when it is decent weather especially if you aren't used to the hot weather. Thankfully we went when it wasn't too hot and wasn't raining. You get the options of just doing this individual activity or doing a package with the train and/or garden tour (self guided). We decided to do the package deal with the garden and maze since the train doesn't show the pineapples. The maze is some fun for the whole family to do together or make a competition. Either way is fun. My family did it together and we found most of the hidden spots you can find on the map, but had trouble finding the train. Also, we ended up using the paper map since the online map on the app wasn't working.

    Quality/Quantity - This is an event okay to skip unless you have really young kids. Or kids that want to be and act very young. :) My daughter had such positive memories from her childhood at this maze 10 years ago, so she insisted we do it again. She said the maze was bigger the first time, but it is probably because she was much much smaller then. This year, they actually gave you the answers to the maze which made it so much easier!! We did it in less than 40 mins. In the past they had stamps, this year we had to use a pencil and stencil each location. (which was harder, especially because my daughter broke the lead of the pencil on the 2nd stencil). My last visit, can't tell you which season, but it was infested with spiders. This year was not an issue. Atmosphere - World's largest maze. There were a mix of people of all ages, from young kids to teenagers to young adults to parents. Service - This employee did NOT want to be there... Actually 50% of the employees did NOT seem happy, the good news is that the other 50% were GREAT!! Price - $8.75 each. Owner Comment - Congrats on all your success since 1950!

    The pineapple maze is super fun for the cost. It was a pretty hot day, but we still went the whole distance and found all of the different stations. Basically areas where you can copy over some stencils that are hidden throughout the maze. Great, fun way to kill a couple hours.

    The maze is a little beat up and could use a refresh. Too many people cutting through the bushes to take short cuts. Overall it is a fun time takes about 50 min. This is probably one only think worth doing at the plantation. You can get a souvenir photo taken but it's hugely overpriced. Just take a selfie

    It's a nice drive to the plantation the place itself is nice,but no much to do or look at. We did however have ourselves a delicious Dole Whip, that was the best part of my trip there.

    a-MAZE-d I'll be honest to say that I would have ventured to try this maze were it not for some guests visiting from the mainland. And though it was somewhat fun navigating the maze, this was a first and last visit for this local resident. LOCATION: On the grounds of the Dole Plantation in Wahiawa. Free parking available. FUN FACTS (taken from the map provided): 1. Created in 1997. 2. Expanded in 2007 3. Area is 3.15 acres 4. 2.46 miles of pathway 5. Comprised of 14,000 local Hawaiian plants. PRICE: Adults: $7, Kama'aina: $6 (local ID needed). There is a ticket booth at the entrance, where one can purchase tickets solely for the maze or tickets for the maze and dole plantation train. The ticket booth has only room for a single employee, therefore please be patient while waiting in line. The basic premise of the maze is to find the eight stations placed within the maze. The stations represent the eight main Hawaiian Islands. The staff at the ticket booth will provide you with a map of the maze, with the locations of the stations, as well as a card that has eight boxes in which to trace the stencils found at each of the stations. For the more tech savy visitor, there is a QR-Code at each station as well; not sure what app or name of the app needed unfortunately. TIPS: 1. Use sunscreen as you'll be entirely in the sun, there's no shade within the maze. 2. Wear comfortable footwear. We took about 45 minutes to find all the stations within the maze. The maze was very muddy and wet the day we visited (Christmas Eve), and there were many, many puddles along the paths. There were signs at the entrance warning visitors of the wet conditions. I daresay our time would have been shorter if we hadn't needed to take extra time to walk around/avoid the puddles. BOTTOM LINE: A fun time overall. It was a challenge at times to navigate our way to find the stations. Personally, I would NOT attempt the maze if its wet and muddy.

    I definitely got lost a few times, so use to my gps...

It is nice that the entrance is free, but the garden was not as well maintained as we had hoped. There was not a lot of area to explore, and the experience felt more like a walk through a forest rather than a traditional botanical garden. That being said, it can still be a peaceful place to relax, enjoy a quiet coffee, read a book, or simply spend some time away from the city. It is a nice spot for unwinding, but it may not be the best choice if you are looking for a well-developed botanical garden experience.

    What an honor to be able to witness this place! It's a sacred place for Hawaiian history and…read moreculture and I am so honored i got a glimpse of it. One hundred yards from the intersection of Whitmore Avenue and Highway 80 on the island of O'ahu lie a group of rocks known as the Kukaniloko Birthing Stones. This site has witnessed Hawai'i's royal births and powerful struggles for centuries, and which may have also served an astronomical function. When a new chief was to be born, the mother would be brought to the rocks and, under the watch of anywhere from 36 to 48 chiefs, the birth would take place. Most of the leaders were there to observe the births for the oral historical record, but a small number may have assisted with the birth. When the birthing was complete, the child would be swept away, not to be seen by the mother until they had reached maturity. This was practiced to reduce the chance of murder from rival chiefs. The important spot was also home to a number of battles between tribes that would decide the fates of their entire communities. Children born at Kukaniloko would learn leadership and the traditions of their ancestors at the sacred site and its surrounding lands. While the stones have been thought to have served a largely ritual purpose to native Hawaiians, recent research has uncovered patterns on the rocks that could have served an astrological purpose. It is now believed that the stones may have acted as a sort of Pacific Island henge.

It's easy to drive by without noticing given the closed gate with "no parking" signs. One has to know to park safely on the road and walk past the closed gate to experience the birthing stones. There are no signs to indicate the history of the area which is a downside so one has to Google and read about it. As you walk down the dirt path you eventually run into a landscaped area bordered by rocks that contains the birthing stones and trees. There's nothing really to see beyond scattered stones while using your imagination in curiosity about what has occurred at this location. A site mentions a temple with a bell that would ring to announce the birth but it's nowhere to be found. A quick visit to see a piece of Hawaiian history. I give it three stars because while it's a landmark, it could do a better job at educating visitors. No signage, description, or images of what happened hinders the appreciation and knowledge of why it's a sacred landmark.

The trees fronting California Avenue by Iliahi School had several cars already parked with avid fans taking photos. We drove on and did come upon some cherry trees further up on the right hand side still on California Avenue but nowhere to park with cars there too then... I remembered Rod's post mentioning a footbridge and Glenn Avenue. Unfamiliar with the area I inputted Glenn Avenue to Maps and our eyes were scanning both sides of the street for a foot bridge. Ta duh!!! On the left hand side we spotted the place. High curbing with no place to park. So... hubs told me to get out of the car with fur bebe who we brought along for the ride. He went to find parking on a side street. Come my little fur bebe let's take a look. There was a family with a tripod taking photos so I moved and waited on the side. When they were done I asked them where they parked. The man said at the botanical gardens. Sure enough it's right across the short foot bridge. Next time. While I was getting some selfies another man came in my direction and told me there's more trees by the church. I asked him do you know what the name of the church is? He thought for a moment and said Nazarene. Perhaps next time we'll check it out but we had to hele on since I had placed our lunch order before we left the house and it was WAY past 25 minutes. Hope the cherry blossoms will last two more weeks so we can bring Doc here to see the beautiful fragile pink blossoms that bloom it seems only around this time every year.

I was the only one parked there and I went on a Friday morning around 9. Playground: The sign says its for kids ages 5- 12. I took my 22 month old daughter. She loved it. I loved how clean the playground is! It's seriously the cleanest playground I've taken my kids to. There are two slides for kids to choose from. Parts of the park are shaded, included two benches you can sit at to watch your little ones while they play. The bigger slide has a bridge that was too scary for my daughter to go on alone, she wasn't scared, I was. A little toddler could easily fall through, but I can see how it could be fun for bigger kids to get to the big slide. Since we had the whole playground to ourselves, I let her climb up the big slide to enjoy it, rather than try to cross the bridge she could easily fall through. Despite some shaded areas, my daughter said the big slide was too hot for her to slide on around 10 a.m. Area: There are walking trails you can take advantage of. The trails go along a stream and it was .5 miles, round trip from the parking lot to the end and back. The trails are shaded, which was nice. I saw a lot of dog owners on the trails while I was exploring. There are some pull up bars by the playground. There is also tennis courts and basketball courts. I definitely recommend this fun little park and playground.
