[edit] Tours & Transportation

Roberts Hawaii currently has an extensive fleet of motorcoaches, mini-buses, and vans. Most motorcoaches are of the MCI make, including a large number of "E" and "J" Series Renaissance Coaches (55-60 seats), a fleet of "DL" Series coaches (55-63 seats), some remaining 40ft "D" series coaches (55 seats), Ford-Econoline Minibuses (21-25 seats, with or without baggage compartments), and Ford Econoline Passenger vans (11 seats w/Luggage, 15 seats w/o luggage). The fleet make-up is the same on every Island, with some exceptions, since it is currently impractical to move vehicles from one Island to the other unless the move is permanent.

Roberts Hawaii currently holds the transportation contracts for many of O'ahu's attractions, including Atlantis Submarines & Cruises, Paradise Cove Luau, Germaine's Luau, and Hilo Hatties. They also service several cruise lines, including Princess Cruises and P&O Cruises.

Tours is a large part of Roberts Hawaii's business, especially on the islands of Kaua'i, Maui, and Hawai'i. Most tours are done by the drivers themselves, and are done on the newer motorcoaches.

[edit] Honolulu Airport Shuttle

Roberts Hawaii currently has a contract with the State of Hawaii to run the Honolulu Airport Transit Service, better known as the Waikiki Airport Shuttle. Roberts provides a curb-side shuttle service from multiple stops at the Honolulu International Airport to any hotel in Waikiki, including the Pagoda, Ala Moana Hotel & Shopping Center, and as far east as the Kaimana Beach hotels (New Otani and surrounding condos). Although this is a very affordable way to get into Waikiki at $9 per person one-way, $15 round-trip, the shuttle can make many stops before finally reaching a customers hotel. Patience is advised.
