Great birthday party idea for kids, family night, or adventurous date night idea. Kids and adults of all ages will love this. Located at Dole Canary, bottom floor, right next to the theaters. Park in the Dole Canary parking garage, park like you would for the movies. Don't forget to validate your ticket in the drift lab. 3 hour validated parking. There is a shared bathroom inside. Staff were so kind, patient, and friendly. They really did make it an awesome experience. There's a smaller track for small kids. Our 5 year olds started on that track before advancing to the bigger track. I got to ride too! It was so much fun. The electric karts are easy to operate. Similar to bumper cars but better! The tracks are timed in 15 min intervals. I'll definitely be recommending this place to people. read more

The best place to hold a birthday party for a tight knit group of kids. It's a place to burn rubber, play fun music and make the area your space through imagination. Little kids love the opportunity to drive cars and go round and round to experiment and drive in a manageable environment. The speeds are moderated or not. lol! You decide. You can choose your own catering company or bring your own food. Include using the popcorn machine. Bring your cooler of drinks. Decorate the area as you like it. There is a refrigerator for use. It's a great space to let your imagination fly and bring in outside vendors. Owner is very nice! And it's great as you share your vision and needs prior to the party. Definitely would visit again!!! read more

Great place to plan birthday parties. Our son had a blast, and it is perfect for both kids and adults. At some parties only the kids have fun, but this spot gets everyone celebrating and excited. It was easy to book, and the packages are great. We would definitely plan another event here. They provide banners for themed parties, a balloon pump, and even a refrigerator for drinks and cake. Staff were friendly and helpful throughout the entire process, making everything smooth and stress free. read more

Going to Ohana Driftlab was one of the highlights of our Hawaii vacation. We thoroughly enjoyed our experience, from meeting the owner, Rob, to doing multiple sessions around the track. It was super easy to do, and our 7-year-old son had an absolute blast. Ohana Driftlab is such a unique experience that you cannot find anywhere else. We highly recommend it to locals and visitors alike looking for a fun outing. Thanks, Rob! read more

We had such a good time here. It was the perfect rainy‑day activity when going outside was not happening. I was a little nervous bringing my 3‑ and 4‑year‑olds, but the "baby track" was clutch -- the little ones could cruise at their own pace while the older kids ripped around on the big track. Mine were totally happy staying on the small one and getting the hang of driving. My older one already thinks she is ready for the big track next time. Rob and his ʻohana were super welcoming. You do need to buy the headscarves, but it is a one‑time thing. We just keep ours in the car so we are ready whenever the kids ask to go again -- which has been basically every day since. Mahalo, Rob, for giving our family such a fun spot to enjoy together. read more

This is a hidden gem! It is NOT go karts, but it's drifting karts for kids to kids at heart. My 10 year old was cautious at first since he has never done something like this, but by the time he finished his first session he couldn't stop talking about it and wanted to go again, and again... and again. We went on a Monday, but it looks like a perfect place for a birthday party. Their pricing includes a head sock used with their helmets. They also have grip socks for purchase if needed. As a 45 year old adult, I got to try it out as well, and it was just as fun as it looks. I recommend stretching first if you are my age, but it was definitely something I would do again. read more

We celebrated our grandson's 10th bday here and everyone had a blast. Staff was super helpful, cheerful and not at all hovering but always ready to assist. Kids ranged from 5-10 and picked up driving quickly due to great safety and operating brief given. Even the parents had a great time(prob more so than the kids). Would definitely recommend having a party here and even do it again. As one of the kids stated upon leaving "I want to live here" read more

I had my son's 9th birthday here and everyone had a great time. When we checked in everyone was so welcoming. Our party area was all set up and nice and clean. They really made us feel so comfortable. They took there time explaining how to use the carts and didn't rush us. I especially loved that I didn't have to clean up. They took care of that too! We definitely will be coming back. read more

This place was a great change of pace and allowed for my daughter and I to both participate in driving together in separate cars. They could modify the speeds to accommodate for different ages and drivers. The staff members were really kind and considerate, kind and helpful. read more

Booked a birthday party a week and a half prior (5 stars for the very quick response time and details). I came in expecting the party area ready (it was for 930am), but one of the girls were still putting on table covers. The setup was not really complete - maybe because they are used to opening at 10am? My party was on time and ready. Honestly, my party and I were a bit lost. No one guided us to go here, go there, do this/that kinda thing. It was a slow start. It was pretty much me asking every single time what to do, what to expect. I expected from the website about a party being hosted so I didn't have to worry getting everything and everyone situated... but I did just that and instead of enjoying my son's party, it felt like I was a chicken with no head and I was all over the place (making sure that people had time to eat, drive, and enjoy the cake celebration - but it was rushed). There was no music. It was dead quiet as I entered for our party time. So glad my other half brought his big speakers. Love the place and the people, just expected a lot more than I should've due to reading other reviews and going off the website to expect help hosting the party so we can relax. It was the main reason I booked it. Nonetheless, everyone seemed to enjoy themselves once everything started picking up (about an hour into our reserved time). Feedback from the party was that the drifting time was not consistent. Some would go 4 laps and some would go 8 laps for example. A few didn't get to ride, but they asked the staff nicely to try one time since it got interrupted from singing "happy birthday" or having to pause to eat, and mainly because no one was on the track till 20-30min after my party start time. 2 hours is too short if 1.5hr is dedicated for the drifting time. Just expected a lot more for the price I paid. Friendly staff though. Wish I had a better review for this local gem. read more

We had a birthday party at Ohana Drift Lab, and we were very happy with how things turned out. U'i really helped to make the birthday boy feel extra special. Their approach is very flexible which matched our style. Our party size of 14 was just right. The kids had fun and were fine taking turns on the track. Even little sister got to drive as much as she wanted on the keiki course while the bigger kids were drifting on the main course. read more

This place is AMAZING!! We're visiting from San Diego and did all the amazing things Oahu offered in a week (we come every year) and this was by far our children's favorite spot!! They loved it so much we had to come back a second time. The owner is incredible and went above and beyond!! He is phenomenal with children and was especially amazing with our child with special needs. He l is on the autism spectrum felt comfortable, included, and more than able to participate! Absolutely phenomenal experience!! read more

The staff is nice the karts are fast the art on the walls are cool good music good lighting

These are second or third hand carts that barely kept power for the duration of the 11 mins we used them. These are old equipment from razor and other carting places that went out of business! I paid over $20 for 15 mins. Guy explained how to use for over 2 of the minutes and then ended our time another 2 minutes early because he had other customers waiting to drive! There should be a timer on the wall when starting to ensure everyone gets their time. Total of 11 minutes (timed on my watch) drive time with a dying cart for over 20 bucks a person! NOT WORTH IT in my opinion! read more

Every member of my family - from the 2 year old to the 50 year old, loved this place. It was safe, the instructors provided support for beginners, and everyone enjoyed driving at their own pace. I love the concept of a multigenerational playground. It was so sweet to see the grandmas and grandpas driving especially! And they validate for 3 hours of free parking! read more
