OVERVIEW

The Lyon Arboretum dates back to 1918, when the Hawaiian Sugar Planters Association wanted to demonstrate the value of watershed for reforestation. In 1953 it became part of the University of Hawaii, where they continued to expand the extensive collection of tropical plants. Six-story-tall breadfruit trees, yellow orchids no bigger than bus tokens, ferns with fuzzy buds as big as human heads . . . These are just a few of the botanical wonders you’ll find at the 194-acre Lyon Arboretum. A whole different world opens up to you along the self-guided 20-minute hike through the arboretum to Inspiration Point. You’ll pass more than 5,000 exotic tropical plants full of singing birds in this cultivated rainforest (a University of Hawaii research facility) at the head of Manoa Valley.

Regardless of how many times I return to the beautiful islands of Hawai’i I am constantly amazed at the hidden gems on the islands I have yet to discover and share with my clients. I had such an opportunity on my most recent visit to the island of O’ahu when I had the opportunity to visit […]

Choosing Between All-Inclusive and European Plan Resorts

As with most things in life before you can make a decision you really need to think about the type of vacation experience you are looking for, what you enjoy, what is important for you and what will best help you to stay within a budget that you are comfortable with. In this pursuit of defining the […]

What Linda’s Clients Say…

Just returned from Hawaii ( Maui) for our wedding and honeymoon. Or as Linda put it "weddingmoon".

Everything was perfect. Linda's attention to detail was exceptional. I was a little hesitant using an agent over the internet. She kept in close contact via phone and email. I couldn't have ask for more from a local travel agent.

I had dates and hotel in mind when I contacted her. Not only did she make my itinerary reality... she beat the price of a popular travel company.

After working with her, she mentioned she books for "non wedding" vacations as well. And is an expert in Caribbean as well as Hawaii. So we will be using her for our next Caribbean vacation as well. I highly recommend her. When planning a trip of such magnitude, you want peace of mind. Linda will provide this and so much more.

Sincerely,
Patty & Dell

LINDA DANCER is BY FAR the BEST travel agent and wedding coordinator out there!

I originally stumbled upon Linda while googling for some wedding help to plan a wedding in Kauai Hawaii and boy did I luck out! I got a hold of Linda and from day 1 she was nothing but helpful, kind, understanding, and patient! Linda first asked me what I had pictured for my dream wedding and I gave her an idea that was all over the map because I wasn't exactly sure what I wanted yet. My only requirement was somewhere grassy near the beach. I was worried because I am a full time student again, and my now husband had an emergency surgery that stole nearly our entire wedding budget, so I wasn't sure if our dream wedding in Kauai could even happen on such a small budget.

Linda told me anything was possible and immediately came back with many affordable suggestions, pictures, ideas, and options. Linda went above and beyond....not only did she suggest a bunch of places, but she contacted ALL of the places I was interested in to see if my wedding on a tight budget could even happen.  She worked with all of them, and COMPLETELY took the stress off of me having to do it all! Once we decided on a place, I posted Linda's information on our wedding website for all of my guests to use for travel accommodations. Linda took care of it all, and EVERY single one of my guests had wonderful things to say about Linda. I will use Linda for LIFE!

Although her specialty is weddings and honeymoons, she is the best travel agent out there in my opinion for anything you want to do or anywhere you want to go. Linda doesn't even cost anything to you as the customer...which is unheard of so what more could you possibly ask for!??  Thanks to Linda my wedding was WAY MORE than I thought it would be, and my vision and dream had certainly come true.  I have the most beautiful pictures of any wedding I've ever seen thanks to Linda and her expertise in knowing exactly what I had pictured!  I cannot thank Linda enough, and I have ABSOLUTELY NOTHING negative to say about Linda...

she truly is perfect at her job and you will not be disappointed in using Linda Dancer!!  Thank You Linda!! XOXO

Love,
Eric & AJ Cooper
