Answers & More Info

 A. Guests arriving on the Ferry you will be met by the Shuttle transfer van drivers at the end of the gang way.  Just look for the person holding the sign with Rabacas/Lanai City Shuttle.  

Brad’s thoughtfulness and thoroughness completely surpassed my expectations. He made all arrangements for ferry passage for our group of three, and also flawlessly organized transportation to town in Lāna‘i and the rental of a great Jeep at Dollar. We appreciated him emailing us with updates on some off-road closures due to weather, too. He even met us at the dock in Lāna‘i with copies of all paperwork, informative maps and brochures, and coupons to use at island merchants. “Lost on Lanai” is first class in my opinion, and now that we have our new home in Maui we will be calling on Brad (and Kara) to help with any travel needs for ourselves, family and friends when visiting Lāna‘i .

A while in advance I organised a trip from Oahu to Lanai with Lost on Lanai, who guided me with itinerary suggestions, helpful hints and a finalised schedule that meant we had enough time to do what we wanted to the most, visit the Lanai Cat Sanctuary (like so many before us) and plenty of time to drive around the island to check out some of the beautiful places Lanai has to offer. Ours was a half day tour, which started with a pick up at the airport, a drive to Lanai City and a tour around, a trip to the Garden of the Gods and Shipwreck Beach, then lunch in Lanai City followed by the most fantastic visit to the kitties. Our driver was a fountain of knowledge about the past and present of the island and we were made very comfortable throughout our stay.
If you fancy a visit, do it with Lost on Lanai, you can’t go wrong.
