There are different types of tours to meet a variety of personal interests. You can book cycling tours, group tours, guided tours, and more. One of the most enjoyable activities for the whole family is the Dole plantation tour. You can join in activities such as the Pineapple Express, the Plantation Garden Tour, and the Pineapple Garden Maze. This tour is not only educational but a full days worth of fun. You may also want to purchase a pineapple as a symbol of hospitality. The sailors used to bring them home and display them on their porch to show the sailor was home from foreign ports, and was ready for visitors.

One of the more famous tours you will want to see on your Hawaiian trip is the Pear Harbor Tour. The Empire of Japan attacked Pearl Harbor on Sunday, December 7, 1941.
