Magical Train Ride Adventure!…read more We absolutely loved our experience on the historic Hawaiian Railway -- such a unique and beautiful way to explore Oahu's west side! From start to finish it was pure aloha vibes and family fun! Prices: Standard train ride tickets were around $18 for adults and $13 for kids (ages 2-12) (kids under 2 are free!), and we felt it was worth every penny for the experience and memories! Parking & Arrival: There's plenty of free parking right at the train station, which made arriving super easy and stress-free. We got there a little early to soak in the atmosphere before departure! Hours & Tour Times: The train runs on Wednesdays, Saturdays, and Sundays with departures like 12:00 PM and 3:00 PM, plus a couple of other times depending on the day -- perfect for planning your afternoon. Length & Route: The whole ride is about 90 minutes round-trip, slowly chugging through scenic parts of Oahu's Leeward coast with beautiful views of the ocean and mountains. The narration from the guide made the ride even more interesting! Stops & Fun: One of the best parts was the ice cream stop in Ko Olina -- we all hopped off for a cool treat at a little plaza and waved to neighbors along the way! Photo Ops Everywhere: There were so many spots perfect for photos -- seaside views, cute vintage train cars, and open-air seating made for great candid shots! Plus, we barely saw anyone else there during our ride, so it felt like we had the whole adventure to ourselves. Tips: * Arrive early to grab good seats and explore the train yard * Bring a camera (or phone!) -- the scenery is AMAZING * Don't forget a little extra cash for ice cream! Overall: This was one of our favorite experiences on Oahu -- kid-friendly, super scenic, and just plain fun. We're already talking about going back again next time!

We were really disappointed with this experience. The ride is far too long for young children and…read moresimply isn't engaging enough to hold their attention. The advertised ice cream stop is just a stop at a local shopping plaza, where you're directed to buy ice cream from the ABC Store. It didn't feel like a special attraction at all. If you're expecting scenic ocean views, temper your expectations. We only caught two brief glimpses of the water. The majority of the ride passes through overgrown brush, a shopping cart graveyard, and several homeless encampments. Overall, it felt like a waste of both our time and money. Unfortunately, we wouldn't recommend it, especially for families with young children.

We were looking a fun activity on a Sunday- the Skyline light rail! Why not, we're paying for it as…read moretaxpayers anyway! We drove to the west Oahu station and parked in the huge open lot. BTW, there's another station further west which is the last station. There is no parking there, you need to park at the West Oahu one. The station was nice and open. You need to buy a Holo Holo card ($2) if you don't have one. It's refillable and you should registered it online. Our RT fare to the stadium, the end point, and back to West Oahu was $3. You can buy the card and fill it at the stations before the gates. Use the card to tap in AND OUT of the gates. There were a bunch of riders on board- a lot of them were riding for fun like us. It was a nice ride- comfortable and cool, seats and interior in good condition. Signage was good - the next stop was announced ahead of time. All in all it was a fun comfortable ride! If the city can get its act together and figure out a way to actually extend the route and make the rail usable, this would be a big asset.

The Honolulu Skyline has become an attraction rather than a mode of public transportation…read more You saw on the news on the first day it opened with FREE rides to everyone. It was jam-packed! Everyone wanted to experience it. The rail is only open from 5am on the weekdays and 8am on the weekend and holidays, and closing at 7pm. I don't believe everyone purchased a Holo Card and started using the Rail because when I went on it, it was exceedingly empty. This was on a Saturday, so maybe that's a slow day? I've seen families and probably tourists riding the rail starting from the first stop in Halawa/Aloha Stadium till Kapolei, and ride it back. I took my grandma to ride since we have HOLO cards. If not, you can purchase them at the entrance--$2/card, and $3 for a single fare with unlimited transfers for 2.5 hours (but if you don't exit a rail station, you can ride it all day!).If you're coming from town via TheBus, I highly recommend catching the City Express A to Aloha Stadium to ride. You'll get off outside of the station instead of inside, but it's a short walk. The #20 and #1L bus will take a LOT longer. Since the Skyline rail is new. Everything is clean, and the rail itself is quite spacious. The ride is a steady pace that's a little shaky at the cross points and on inclines. It takes about 22 minutes from Aloha Stadium to Kapolei, and comes every 10 minutes. You do get unique views of Pearlridge, Waipahu, and Kapolei. There's a good amount of security/attendants at the rail stations, and on the rail itself. Feels like a cruise job! A quick note, there's no public restrooms, which is understandable. Overall, yes, the rail does feel like an attraction because this is the first ever rail in Hawaii, and everyone wants to experience it. The rail was an enjoyable and comfortable ride with nice views. I'd rather ride this than jam packed on TheBus. Let's get this finished! Then bring back TheBoat! And of course, the Superferry. What could have been....if only more people supported Mayor Frank Fasi in the early 80s during his run... We would already have had a rail from Hawaii Kai to Pearl City, and I'm sure that would've been expanded further. Life would be different. TheBus strike in 2003 maybe wouldn't have happened, and wouldn't have led to more people driving and stayed driving. I believe this rail has potential, especially when it opens to the Airport, and then to Chinatown/Downtown.

Updating my review now that I can confirm that the girl conductor who USED to work here is gone…read more Now reviewing with the current guy conductor and he is EXCELLENT. Located here at Ka Makana is a little train ride that goes through out the mall. With about 5 little cabins for you and your kiddies to ride and a good amount of time to enjoy. Its $5 per adult and $5 per child. Children must be 36" or taller to ride alone. Hours of operation is Monday-Saturday 10a-6p and Sunday 12p-6p. Operations also depend on weather as this is an outdoor mall. Although its $5 per ride for my son it's worth it as he loves it all the time. The conductor now is ALWAYS interactive with kids and has a great personality. It's because of him we love coming back.

Our children had a blast and once they got out they wanted to go back in. I think the price is kind…read moreof expensive. It would be perfect if it was $5 for kids and $10 for adults. Or even the other way around. Since it's a kids ride, can even charge $10 per kid and $5 for adult since the adult is there only for comfort and supervision. Also, the last red cart needs to be more secured and not loose to prevent Accelerating jerking... the jerking during stopping and acceleration makes the kids scared because it's too snappy. I think if it's tight, the red cart will move as one and more smooth for the kids.

It's a fun little train ride especially if you have younger children. It conveniently travels between Pearlridge "uptown" and "downtown". The rail cars are air conditioned which is a plus on a hot day. Not sure if it's true or not, but I heard that the monorail may be going away soon. Cost is one dollar each way.

It's our first time to try riding it with my daughter so I don't have any idea on where to pay the…read morecoins to after putting on a dollar. We were able to pass through the gate and I was thinking maybe we had to put the coins inside the rail and the next thing I heard of was a guy yelling over the intercom to embarass me and said that "you have to pay it is not free maam" when you could have politely said to put the coins in before you enter since he's freaking watching over a cctv instead of just watching me being so clueless in there. He said another word that I kinda dont remember but its about pay next time which is another embarassing moment instead of actually letting it pass since I already put the coin in. Now I would never even ride this rail again cause it's just too traumatic to be yelled at over something you can be educated in instead of being embarrassed of.

He had only two speeds fast and tire screeching stop. It was an older van and an older man driving so we went bouncing around like rubber balls in a square box. Now like the starship enterprise we went into warp factor one, add to that he was on his cell phone arguing with someone while looking like he was about to have a stroke! I kept thinking who had my funeral arrangements. Anyway we did make it in one piece even if we all needed blood pressure medications. If you want a pulse pounding trip to or from the airport these guys fit the bill perfectly.

Service is quick and price is right I usually make reservation ahead of time by filling out its online form. The company sends me confirmation email and gives directions to locate the driver after arrival in the email. I then make payment online and prepare cash tip for driver. The driver monitors my plane arrival time and sends text message promptly. Instead of fighting through taxi/Uber crowds, I get direction to locate the driver at a private parking lot across the arrival hall. The driver is always polite and pleasant. He keeps his car clean. The ride is always smooth which makes the beginning of our Oahu vacation super expressly simple. Highly recommended if you need a private shuttle service.

TBR, on their website, recommends a private car service which charges $100 per person! Even with the cost of gas that is pretty ridiculously high! Thankfully Yelp has the project function, and I was able to get quotes from several limousine services on the island. Fellow yelpers gave great reviews for Tina and her team's service, and I am so glad we went with them. Booking was easy and efficient, we were able to pay online ahead of time, and we booked a stretch limo from the airport to Turtle Bay for about half the cost of the resort recommended car service. I kept it a surprise and my kids were blown away. They felt like fancy pants people in the limo! The day of pick ups, our driver Raymond had great communication and provided bottles of water for everybody. Both rides were smooth and we definitely felt first class! We tipped him in cash, easy peasy. I referred my sister to them and she booked them to take her family from Aulani to Waikiki. We will def use this co again!
