We spent the last three days with Ken as he guided us around Oahu. Ken was not only super informative and engaging, but he was also entertaining which kept excited and inspired. We loved the little things he did to make our trip extra memorable. Some standout moments for us were the Polynesian Cultural Center, LDS Temple, Pearl Harbor, Kualoa Ranch, Byodo-In Temple, and the many stories Ken told along the way. Thank you Ken!
