Creator's Key Takeaways

we rented a car through Costco at Enterprise paid $10 each way for the Uber bring us from and $15 in gas so $100 for the two of us to do all the same stuff that the chore did hi so it was a good day doing the math

we have no tours purchased for this Cruise we're staying on for the next cruise to Mexico and we've done we purchased two tours a whale watching tour so Christina maybe hopefully and then a Los Kus getaway

for I would we used to get it all the time course it was cheaper then of course tips were less too drinks less everything's more now this thing is crooked you see that yes so we get the good Wii the four device Wi-Fi for half price because we're Elite

Rent a car through Costco to save money on shore excursions in Hilo.
Consider the Princess Plus package if you drink about 5-10 beverages per day.
