Aloha and thank you for taking the time to review our tour. Although I do not remember your tour in particular, in general, you are completely correct. Sometimes we travel in a Hummer and sometimes in, not just a minivan, but a Mercedes minivan with Dharma logos all around. Each party that books a tour receives our tour confirmation email from me which states "please be on the lookout for our Dharma Van, a Mercedes minivan with Dharma logos all around or a Hummer. Either way we are difficult to miss." Depending on the tour and size of the group we will use either our Dharma Van or a Hummer. We used to drive exclusively in Hummers as we drove off road quite a bit. As years went by and our tours got more extensive and detailed, we are now able to show many more LOST locations by driving on roads than in previous years. And since we drive on roads there is no excuse for driving a vehicle that gets only 10 miles per gallon (4 liters per 16KM) and only seats 4 guests. Hummers are not exactly environmentally friendly! At any rate, we are the only company in the entire world that offers LOST Tours and takes you to locations such as the crash site beach, the Dharma Village, the place where Sawyer shoots the polar bear, the cliff where the Nigerian drug plane falls and Boone is killed, the waterfall where Kayte and Sawyer find the silver briefcase at the bottom of a pond (depending on which tour you take) and many, many more. You received a private or semi private tour with between 2 and 6 guests on your tour and a tour that lasts between 6 and 10 hours in length, where you can see virtually the entire island (Circle Island Tour) in one 10 hour day, totally focused on LOST and Movies and scenic beauty, with many stops for great photos of our magnificent scenery. Small groups, personalized, lots of stops and LOST focused tours. And we are the only company in the entire world that does this for LOST. Your tour guide was most likely an extra in LOST as well with lots of valuable knowledge about the show. So...with all that...if driving in our Dharma Van rather than a Hummer is cause for your 2 star rating, I'm amazed! I wish that you had read your tour confirmation email better and contacted us refusing the tour without the guaranteed use of a Hummer so that I could have cancelled your tour and not wasted your time. For anyone reading this response, beginning January 1, 2024, we will be exclusively driving Dharma Vans, no Hummers. Randall, once again, thank you for taking the time to review our tour and I hope the rest of your Hawaiian vacation went well.
Mahalo, Dave Atkins
