Top Hawaii Bus Tours - page 3

If I could give more than 5 stars, I would!!!! Justin is an owner/operator run tour and he went above and beyond to give us the BEST experience. We were blessed to be there when the volcano was erupting, and he tried to do all he could to give us the best views. He even provided N-95 masks, so we wouldn’t get any of the volcanic dust in our lungs. The 14 passenger bus was VERY well kept too. Skip the big charter bus experience and book with Makaio Tours!!!!!

What a great way to see the stunning beauty of Oahu! Our tour guide, Luiz, was engaging, informative, and a very good driver. We stopped at several different lookouts along this picturesque island. So much better than trying to see all of this on our own. Highly recommend!

This was such an awesome experience. Our driver Adam was an absolute pleasure. He told us about the history of each stop and those along the way. We were provided breakfast and a delicious Huli Huli chicken lunch from Uncle Russell’s. We also had water and snacks. The views and history were breathtaking. I’d recommend this tour to anyone who wants to take the road and doesn’t want to drive. You get to take in the sights and enjoy your day.

The crew was amazing and very knowledgeable of the Hawaiian culture which made the short walks from line to line very enjoyable, honestly made you wish some were longer as I loved learning about the people, place, and plants. Even in the rain, the lines were an absolute blast!

What a great experience! Aiden (sp?) and his crew did a fantastic job finding whales and dolphins to see. Aiden delivered information about the whales with humor and knowledge. Also the music onboard was great. What more could you ask for…beautiful water, whale and dolphin sightings and a great crew to make it a memorable experience for my family. Highly recommend this excursion. Thank you!

I do not want to oversell this adventure, but it was an experience of a lifetime. Capt Marco and mate DeVante were fun and informative. The ride was not super rough despite being in a smaller vessel. According to Marco, we were in "whale jail" as we were surrounded by multiple whales and had to stay put as to not cause any injury to our rather large friends by starting our engines. We saw these whales closer than I thought possible. The wife was a little freaked out as their size is intimidating when that close. They truly are gently giants. It was amazing. I would load some pictures and video from our adventure but you would be disappointed if your tour did not have the same result. We have been on whale watching tours before and seeing, even at a distance, is a sight to behold. DO this tour if you do nothing else.

My tour with Summer the guide, the historian, the hula dancer, the entertainer was one of the most memorable experiences I ever had on Oahu Island. Although I visit the Island every February and had many tours so far, Summer was definitely one of the best.. Summer knew everything about the Island e.g., the history, the areas, the culture, the music, the food and much more. Although I had tours so many times in Oahu, I learned so much more today from Summer's clear explanations about the history and the culture of Hawaii. And Summer also had lots of patience, so much happy energy, and I really enjoyed the continuous soothing and healing music selections on the bus. This tour was really one of the most healing and intellectually exciting tour in a Paradise. Once again, I thank Summer who provided us a hint of a paradise in a Paradise. Without you, the tour would have been simply a bus ride. Mahalo from the bottom of my heart ! Miae Park

You see and experience so much more when you don't have to navigate the road. The guide was not only knowledge about where to spend the most time, but went out of her way to introduce us to the locals and help us understand how the plants were used by the natives for various purposes. The VIP is well worth the cost for the one-on-one interactive tour.
