Tours and Transportation
Roberts Hawaii has a fleet of motorcoaches, mini-buses, and vans. Most motorcoaches are made by Prevost Car along with Motor Coach Industries, including Renaissance Coaches (55-60 seats), "DL" Series coaches (55-63 seats), some "D" series coaches (55 seats), Ford-Econoline Minibuses (21-25 seats, and Ford Econoline Passenger vans (11â€"15 seats). The fleet make-up is similar on every island, since it is impractical to move vehicles between islands.
Roberts Hawaii currently holds transportation contracts for many of Oʻahu's attractions, including Atlantis Submarines & Cruises, Germaine's Luau, USS Missouri, and Hilo Hatties. Tours, especially on the neighbor islands, are narrated by the drivers themselves. In 2013, Roberts Hawaii acquired a $21,000,000 contract with the Hawaii State Department of Education to provide school bus service for 181 of O'ahu's 305 bus routes for the 2014 and 2015 school years.
