      Great art work
      Our family had a great time going through Waikiki looking at the street art. Some amazing murals. Guide was very nice!

      Great way to experience something different
      Our family of 5 went on a 2 hour gliding experience with Hawaii Hoverboarding to lower diamond head and back. Equipment was well maintained and with headset commentary to match with the trip timing we learned more about the area.

      Owner not responsive to requests for pictures
      I booked this tour for my husband and I on November 25, 2022. The guy showed up ended up being the owner of the company. My husband doesn't have any experience with Segway/hoverboarding, so the guy let him do 2 turns and we were off. My husband was not afforded the opportunity to get even 5 minutes worth of practice prior to us taking off for 1-2 hours but he did do great with the little bit of practice time. The guide didn't tell us what we were seeing, he'd only talk if I asked him questions. He also didn't allow us many opportunities to take pictures but he took them with his phone. There were areas that I wouldn't want to photograph due to so many homeless people's camps and trash around. Still if I knew he wasn't going to respond to my emails requesting him to email us the pictures he took. I could've gotten a few pictures of us with my own phone. I have told numerous people about this and I hope they tell others because this guy doesn't deserve to thrive in business if it's ran so poorly. I even tipped the guy $30 for a poor tour, wish I hadn't now that he didn't keep his word in sending us the pictures he took. I'd never suggest this tour to anyone or take it again myself. I'm uploading the 1 picture I got.

      A must do activity!
      From the moment we booked the tour, we felt comfortable that we had chosen well. Instructions on where to meet were crystal clear and the length of the tour was perfect. Most of all, we were so super impressed with tour leader Hernan. His amazing local knowledge paired with his terrific personality made the whole experience so enjoyable. Although we had done segways before, the machines here were more robust and Hernan made sure that all safety aspects were thoroughly ticked off before we began. During the tour he was so kind and thoughtful - taking numerous photos of us at locations and also making sure that we had enough water to drink. I cannot speak more highly of this tour, such a genuine wonderful person to have showing us the beautiful sights of Waikiki, thank you so much! I recommend it to anyone young or old.

      Easy fun Segway tour
      Nice easy ride around the Diamond Head area. Guide was informative and easy going. Your was a good time with some awesome views of the beach and the city. Highly recommend for an overview of the area and an overall good time. Hit The Tiki Grille near the meeting point and loved that too.

      Difficulty Understanding The Guide
      We have several segway tours. The segway (they call hoverboards) were fine and performed well. We enjoyed the sights that were on the tour. Biggest problem was the communication from the tour guide. He had pretty strong accent and we both had difficulty understanding him. After a while you just give up. He was a really nice guy but just hard to understand.

      Not what we signed up for.
      We had used Hawaii Hoverboarding Tours on a previous trip to Hawaii, and wanted to give them repeat business. It appeared that the original company has sold out, and the new company did not live up to our expectations. 1.) Upon arrival we were told our booking was for the next day, it took at least45 minutes to get this sort and on our way. After the tour I sent the company my reservation for the date we arrived and had no response. 2.) On our previous tour there was a cool audio of what we were seeing as we rode past. This was not the case with the new company. 3) When we stopped the guide barely spoke to us, and certainly did not share any info about the area. He took one picture of our group and never forwarded it to us as promised. 4.) We asked to pick up the pace of the tour as he was going really slow. Our request was ignored, probably because the unit he was riding was incapable to increasing speed. Disappointing as riding Segways is one of our favorite ways to tour a big city. Will be looking for a new company on our return trip in June. Hate to write a negative review but it was not what we signed up for.

      Not as advertised
      My issue is that we paid for a Street Art tour and we did not visit any part of the Kaka'ako area nor did we see any street art. We basically started at the HHV and went past Magic Island and then doubled back. This is not tour we purchased. It felt like we were given the Japanese version of your other tour. Had taken a previous tour in May that was cut short due to a rider injury. Quality control seems to be lacking in the user experience. An ok experience but not worth what we received. Contacted the company with my concerns with no response or resolution. Photos taken by guide were subpar. We would have taken our own if we knew they were going to be that bad.

      Fun activity with beautiful scenery
      Lots of fun! First time on a hoverboard and the guides provided thorough instructions with plenty practice time before setting off on the tour. It didn’t take long to feel comfortable driving it. The route was very beautiful and scenic. Would highly recommend this tour!

      Fun Tour
      After a brief instruction on how to maneuver the hoverboard, we were off to a really fun morning. This was a great way to see much of Waikiki and learn about its rich culture and history. The tour guides were very friendly and fun. This is a wonderful tour to see plenty of Waikiki in a short amount of time.

      Excellent experience
      Our tour was amazing, Dre, the owner, and tour guide was friendly, informative and enthusiastic about Honolulu. I would recommend this tour and give 5 plus stars. There were several stops for those who are beginners or those who need to step off and stretch their feet! I would book again if ever back in Honolulu. Thanks Dre for making our segway tour great.

      Hawaii Hoverboard Ala Moana Magic Tour
      This tour was so much fun we had a blast. Very easy to find the location , D’Andre gave each person brief lesson on riding the hoverboard until each person felt comfortable. The tour itself was great with breathtaking views of the coastline and sites around the city with a few stops for photo ops. If your looking for a fun adventure you definitely have to try this out … highly recommend!

      Great Views
      Beautiful views, and the hoverboards allowed us to see more without getting tired from walking. I've never been on a hoverboard, but Dre gave great instruction and I didn't have a problem.
