My husband and I went to Oahu last Feb. and we rented a car. I am glad we had the car because we could come and go as we pleased on our schedule. The only thing that was hard for us was finding our hotel the night we landed; it was a bit confusing in the Waikiki area with all the one way streets. If we go back to Oahu I will bring my GPS for the car. Since you have a child I personally would rent a car. I don't like having to rely on the bus to get where I need to go.

ive taken the bus for 12 years when I was a kid until I graduated from high school. I hate the bus. people are rude, it stinks, its dirty, people piss on the bus (ive seen this happen at night time), people spit on the bus, people come on the bus smelling like BO and smoke! If you have a baby I suggest you rent a car it may be expensive but its much better than riding the bus. and you dont have to wait for the bus if you get a car your on your own time.

The Good
-It’s one of the best bus systems in the US
-Reliable
-AC

The Bad
-You gotta wait

The Ugly
-There are some strange people on the bus. Really.

There are buses everywhere on Oahu and you can get around the island with the use of the bus, but it’s just having to transfer and remembering which bus to take to where that’s a headache. I’ve only ridden the bus twice and I’d rather take my car.

An 18-month-old shouldn’t be on a bus anyway. There are a lot of germs.
