    I was in O'ahu a few weeks ago. I definitely used the Waikiki trolleys, but only the single deck. I didn't do the pink one as I wasn't interested in shopping. I wanted nature and culture, so I went on the red and blue lines. The red line was the heroes and legends and the blue line took me up the coast. You are right, the drivers were fascinating to listen to with so much knowledge of their home, and it was just so relaxing 👌🤗🇦🇺. Also, my thoughts go out to the people of Maui 💔🥺

    • @dwaynearoundtown
      @dwaynearoundtown  11 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Ohhhh, you did it right then! The Red Line (for history and culture) and the Blue Line (for those stunning views of the east part of the island) are both so awesome! My family was just here visiting and hopped on the Blue Line. The drivers have so much knowledge of the island. I enjoy their little anecdotes, it makes each ride different. I actually pulled out my phone the last time I rode and wrote down some of the things that were shared! It was so interesting. 🙏🏾Thank you for your kind message. My heart is hurting for the people of Maui. 💔I hope for healing and restoration. 🌺

      You are right! I have noticed this a lot lately! There are times I see the pink line and they are bursting at the seams. I can't tell you the last time I saw an empty one. I like the Red trolley (Hawaii History) because it's so much to learn about the island. Way to go being creative!

      @dwaynearoundtown  ปีที่แล้ว

      Aloha Angela! 🤙🏾 Mahalo for watching! 🙏🏾 I actually hopped on at the main stop (Kalakaua Ave x Royal Hawaiian Ave) near the corner where the Victoria Secret is. There is an umbrella set up and someone will help you! They are super nice. You can also get tickets nearby at Waikiki Shopping Plaza (same block as Victoria Secret, near STIX Food Hall) and you can also get tix online, which is quick and easy. I understand your confusion and I'm probably making it worse right now. Haha! I'm sorry. I was confused too until I saw it and then it all made sense. 😉I promise it's not as hard as I'm explaining. lol
