Let me apologize if this post seems to be long winded, I feel a bit overwhelmed the more I read and make plans for our first Hawaii Trip. Our vacation is 2 1/2 weeks away and I have a few questions. We'll be staying at Aulani for 7 nights. My husband, myself, and adult son. We have another family we are traveling with, all adults. Hopefully those of you who have been to Aulani can give me advise on how to get around the island and the restaurants close to the resort. We are planning a couple day trips. We'll be doing an excursion to Pearl Harbor but will pay to do the excursion from the hotel, which takes you there on a bus. We also want to go to Haleiwa, Waimea Bay, the Pineapple Plantation, and spend time looking around the North Shore. One night we want to go to Waikiki to shop and eat. We will also want to get a few groceries to keep in the room. Our thought is to rent a car for 2 days. The rest of the time we are thinking of using Uber if we need to go somewhere. Can someone let me know if there is Uber available. I read that there is a Target close to the resort. How far from the resort is it? I also read that there is a resort bus that will take you to Waikiki, is that true? Thanks for any and all information - I really appreciate any additional thoughts or advise.
