GOOD EXPERIENCE

By Nate | June 9, 2021

“Highly recommend Royal Star based on performance of their driver Lola! We had a day trip from Kauai to Oahu to see the Arizona Memorial and Valor in The Pacific memorials. Long story short the weather was terrible, our flight to Oahu was delayed. The brightest spot of the day was Lola! She made an extra effort to see that even though we were late, we got where we needed. She took a genuine interest in making sure we had a good experience. Every tour company on planet earth should have 3 or 4 clones of Lola!”
