Elua Posted April 3, 2017 #1 Share Posted April 3, 2017 Aloha Kakou! This is Tiki Dave from Elua, and I wanted to let everyone know that both of the Big Island ports now have Uber/Lyft service available. It just came online last week, but in Hilo and Kona, there is service available. Thought I'd give everyone a heads up, as it opens up some options for transportation.

Travelingboski Posted April 3, 2017 #2 Share Posted April 3, 2017 Great news...I use Uber all the time. We are visiting the Big Island later this month. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trish1c Posted April 4, 2017 #3 Share Posted April 4, 2017 I was there last week & when I clicked on the app it said Service Not Available in this area. Hopefully that has been updated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aloha, It just went online last Friday. I think it also depends where you were looking for a ride. I know there can't be pickups in the port area, (you can get a pickup across the street from there port) and there is no pickup at the airport as well. (Though they can do drop offs) Aloha, Tiki Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iceleven Posted April 6, 2017 #5 Share Posted April 6, 2017 Any idea the approximate rate for a Lyft/Uber to the airport for a car rental in Hilo? I know it is a very close proximity. Would you recommend ordering a Lyft/Uber for a ride to the airport for Honolulu and Kaui from the cruiseport for car rental? thank you - Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are on a Princess cruise, so we dock there for the day. I here it is about 30 minute drive from the port. We thought it might be fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It cannot arrange a pickup in the terminal area of the port...you have to go outside of the gates. Not sure of the location of the mini-golf, but there is Uber on Kaua'i.

Aloha No, Tiki Dave (of Elua) www.facebook.com/eluamusic www.facebook.com/tikidavemusic Dave...several years ago you recommended a great plate lunch spot to us & since it's your home would you have anything to share on this Hawaii forum thread. I hope to walk around the downtown area visiting the Discovery Center, Tsunami Museum, Lyman Museum and East Hawaii Cultural Center. They all look close on the map. Is it easy walking in the area? Are there places to sit? I sometimes have difficulty walking more than about 4-5 blocks without a short rest. Additionally,transport alternatives from the port to the downtown area would be appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
