First of all our flight confirmation no was messed up. Polynesian Adventure told us we should check in round trip. But these confirmation number did not work. Mind you they gave us two different confirmation numbers and none gave us our return boarding passes and none worked. We had to look for help. After arriving in Maui the Polynesian representative called us and scolded us for not calling them when we arrived. She was very rude. She treated me like a kid. There were no instructions whatsoever to call them. The tour itself was terrible. Many of the supposed stop we were going to go were abandoned. For example, on the trip to Mokawao town where we were supposed to spend an hour there but instead we just passed thru it. The amount we paid to this tour at $529 person feels like a rip off. The only saving grace was our driver.
