Did you rent a car when you came to Hawaii? Was it worth it?
My girlfriend and I are going next week! We rented a car, and we hope it'll be worth it!
We’ve been to Oahu twice back in 2016 and 2017. We used taxi to and from airport. We rented a car for 2 days out of 7 days during those vacations to explore other places.
In Maui 2021, we rented a Jeep for the whole week of our vacation which is a must! Curious. Does Oahu have Uber or Lyft for airport to hotel transport? Are they less expensive if there’s any? We’re planning to go back there at Christmas. Mahalo.
@@princessleia1633 I live on Oahu 20 years. There are Uber and Lyft at airport- you must go to the Departure level(not the arrival level)
yes its worth it
I just left Oahu Sunday. I did have a rental car thru enterprise near the airport.It was a Nissan Sentra and it was less than $700 for 8 days. I’m very glad we had it. Made it to some very beautiful places.
My wife and I rented a car and it was definitely worth it. We were staying on the east shore of Oahu and we made it around the entire island, so much to do.
I just wanted to say thank you, we just got back our vacation on Oahu and your videos helped us a ton on planning our vacation. We had a wonderful time, a vacation of a life time, and your video helped us do that! We stayed at HHV and used tour buses, or Uber the entire time. We saw the Polynesian center, pearl harbor, a tour of the north shore, swim at Waimea falls, dinner cruise, aloha stadium swap meet, etc! Out of the 7 days we only had 2 days to relax on the beach. That being said we saved a ton of money considering a compact rental in Oahu is currently $300 a day plus $60 parking per night. Two upsides you missed of using tours is #1 while on a bus you get to enjoy the scenery, and views instead of paying attention to the road, and traffic. #2 all the tour drivers we had where a wealth of knowledge, and history on our tours, we learned a ton from them which turned it from just a drive, to a interesting learning experience, and gave us a more enjoyable experience!
The last time I was on Oahu was February/early March 2020. I went on a couple of tours (Kaneohe sand bar and an Island tour) but typically, I got an Uber of Lyft to go to places like Kailua/Lanikai Beach or Koko Head trail, and pink Pillbox hike. Compared renting a car and parking fees, gas (and the hassle of finding a parking spot at your destination) I found Uber/Lyft to be very competitive, if not cheaper, and more relaxing.
That's awesome! thank you for sharing
Renting a car is sooo worth it! Parking can be expensive but its worth renting for at least a couple days to see other parts of the beautiful island. Traffic is not that bad in Hawaii compared to where I live (DC area), but that depends on where you’re coming from.
I totally agree!
Congrats you guys!! I’ve been following you from when you had few hundred subscribers and thought to myself, these guys are way more talented and produce such quality videos and that you deserve more. I recommended you my my family and friends too. So glad that you’re here! For much more growth to come, I’ll keep supporting you guys ❤️
Congrats on 10k - great videos. Love to move and work on the island so appreciate this guide to get an idea on what options there are when I leave my vehicle behind.
Thank you so much!
Right now medium size car cost up to $300/day and van is up to $600. Uber wait can be an hr at the airport. Uber/Lift charge double if not more currenty. It's all due to rental car shortage. Even scooters are all being rented out. I feel lucky to rent a car from Turo for $120 a day. It's crazy but happening right now. If anyone plan to visit Hawaii in May you should go and check!
Congratulations. You guys do so much to show us life and living in Hawaii. Keep up the great work.
Thank you! Will do!
ongrats on 10K. You guys do a great job. Really helped my visit to Oahu last week. We did rent a car and it went smooth. We stayed at the Hilton Hawaiian Village so paid another $50 a day to park there. We did see the whole island every corner and did a ton. Thanks again and keep up the great channel.
Oh wow!
Congratulations you two deliver such informative and fun vlogs.
Thank you oops Mahalo
Congratulations! We enjoy watching you both so much!
Thank you so much!
If you rent a car here on Oahu-just remember we are not all on vacation-eyes on the road and
keep up with traffic
You guys are great!! 🤙🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽
Woo hoo, that’s awesome. I enjoy watching your videos
Yay! Thank you!
congrats!!!!you guys are awesome 😁
Thank you guys again😁🌴👍🏿 Can't wait until July😁
You guys are Awesome
Congrats!!! Very informative video.
Thank you!
Many many years back we used public transportation and yes it was a little slow but we had a great time going and staying as long as we wanted.
Just an other option.
❤️ your vids! Thank you 🙏🏾
Thank you so much, Jasmie!
Man, renting a car here sucks now because of COVID. If you ask me, Turo is totally the move!
Turo has it's disadvantages
@@Livingtheglobe like what
Coming there next week & I got a car. Going to be so worth it. Love your video’s!
Awesome! Thank you!
We are staying at VRBO places that have free parking! That fee would add up to fast for our pocket book! Thanks for your video and congrats on 10,000 subs!
Thank you so much! You've got a good deal!
Hi guys, I love your videos. I am a new subscriber and I am planning a family trip to Hawaii. Good information, easily understandable and very good quality of the videos. I want to give you a tip, if you subtitle your videos in Spanish you would gain thousands of subscribers, we are many Latinos in the USA who want to visit Hawaii and there is not much valuable information like the one you offer in our language. Keep growing.
Thank you so much, great idea we will look into that❤️
Congratulations!!
thank you so much!
In October, we will be vacationing in Ko Olina for 5 days and then staying the last 2 days in Waikiki. We need a rental since we will be seeing relatives all over the island. That rental this year is gonna be painful. 900 for the same mini van that was only 350 back in 2019.
I'm going to Oahu next week for the first time and I definitely want to rent a car. It just seems worth it. Also I live in Los Angeles where the traffic is the worst; so I'm guessing Oahu will be tame in comparison.
Depends on what time of the day. Avoid rush hour and you should be fine. Enjoy your vacation!
Hello guys, how are you? Is everything ok? I like it so much. You can also visit Morocco
So sad, my husband and I were supposed to go this Sunday- took the required covid test and mine came back positive. 😭 of course I’m happy I know and will stay home and quarantine but so sad we can’t go anymore. Devastated. Hopefully we can reschedule for just a few weeks or might have to go in July. Is it nice there in July? Or way too hot/ humid? Mahalo. I’ve been following you guys and you’ve made me so excited.
Thank you! we hope it all works out
Aloha! Do you know if the Hilton Waikiki Friday night Firework show had resumed yet? I’m a new subscriber and love your videos! I’ll be in Waikiki in just 10 days 😭♥️
I called them just a few days ago and they are still not sure when the fireworks will start again. I will be talking more about this tomorrow when I go live from Waikiki. Join us live 6pm est 3pm pst
@@Livingtheglobe wow such a quick response! Mahalo 🙏🏼🙌🏼
Sure thing!🌈🌸
Aloha.. Dallas, tx
Great video I got a lot of help form this channel I went to Hawaii after getting this information and I was so happy and grateful. Thank you, so happy for you! Plz pin
Glad I could help!
Ha I got my rental way ahead before all the price went up and I won’t be back there till august I’m all set
That's amazing! Great planning!
Congratulations on 10K. If you rent a car at a resort such as turtle Bay you wouldn't have to pay parking there since you rented it there I'm assuming is that correct?
Hi, Paul! Turtle Bay is going under major renovations, not sure what they will do next. But we will keep you updated!
Aloha and mahalo! I'm planning a trip and will be staying in Waikiki in August. Are you still having Friday evening chats?
Hi, Karen! Thank you so much! We hope you will have a wonderful vacation! As we are traveling you do not always have a good internet connection so we go live whenever we can.
I am really kicking myself for only renting a car for 3days of my 14day trip. I got one for $58/day. Now the prices are $200+/day! 🤑
Did you get to explore the island?
Any tips for first time trip. Just plan to stay in Oahu for 7 days, with 2 year old. Thanks very much
We’ve created over 100 videos on Hawaii, what will you be doing and staying
@@Livingtheglobe we will stay at Sheraton Princess Kaiulani, I guess it’s in walking distance to Waikiki beach. It’s really for relax. I’m still debating to rent a car, I don’t want to plan a lot and be exhausted like you mentioned, when the driving is long and kid has a nap schedule. Wondering if staying here, will there be enough activities for 7 days and if not maybe taking tours nearby. Thanks!
Hi guys, I’m about to active my e-SIM. Just wondering if I’d better active it before departing or better arriving in HNL then use the airport wifi to active?
Just make sure you have enough time to use it (not too early so it does not expire). I would activate it at home the day before leaving just to make sure you know how to switch your sims.
We will be visiting Waikiki in March with my kids. We are planning to visit Hanauma Bay. Is it easy to get a lyft or uber going there and vice versa?
yes, but now impossible to make reservations & tickets for the bay
Hi, I watched you video on HUI car share. Do you still recommend?
Do they still have the same pros? How do they compare in price with turo? Thank you!
yes, it is still good. Turo you can find cheaper but the quality will depend on the host. Read reviews
Would u recommend to rent biki bike? How do we park it if we have to stop to the stores?
There are a lot of Biki Stations all over Honolulu. Look at this map gobiki.org/map-of-biki-stops/ We use Biki everyday :)
Aloha havaji tenks 🙋♀️🌁🇷🇸
Aloooha!
Hi y’all! do you guys have any recommendations to what rental company has a reasonable price to rent in Waikiki? TIA
I find it difficult to know how much something costs because the price keeps changing. So, I look at different options to see which one is cheapest. I book it without paying and keep looking for a better deal. If I find something better, I cancel the first booking and go for the better deal.
wish i met these guys here in waikiki but now we r leaving
Thank you so much.
What about free parking in Waikiki.???
Very few and far in between, street parking almost impossible to find so you have to park in a garage, hotel or Zoo
Does Oahu have Uber or Lyft like transport from airport to hotel and Vice versa?
Yes. When we were there 2018 Uber wait time was about 30 minutes but is about an hour or so nowadays.
@@jessmend1239 All the Full time Uber/Lyft drivers here on Oahu still on Unemployment until Sept- After that there will be less waiting

@@Livingtheglobe thanks for this. I remember now that we did pre order a cab and that was convenient.
I m trying to rent a car and there is no available cars, why?
Maybe this would help understand: th-cam.com/video/Ja46vKZzB-M/w-d-xo.html
