Are Honolulu day trips worth it?

Yes, Honolulu day trips are worth it. Even if you have a waterfront hotel suite on Waikiki Beach, you'll probably want to see more of Oahu, the third-largest Hawaiian Island. Instead of renting a car and winging it, book an organized day trip that includes transportation and a local guide.

Per one customer who booked the Oahu Grand Circle Island and Haleiwa Tour - 9hr Deluxe Experience, "This was a wonderful way to see all of Oahu on a short time frame. We saw more than we could have by driving it ourselves. Marlon was a terrific tour guide - kind, funny and very knowledgeable! He gave us great info about the island and Hawaii and its history! The bus was extremely clean and comfortable and it had a bathroom which was a huge plus! I thought 9 hours would feel too long but it was perfect and we were back by 4:30 so we still had time for other things to do!"

What should I know before booking Honolulu day trips?

Before booking Honolulu day trips, consider whether you prefer a water-based experience or a land-based experience. A few day trips include both. Also, read the day trip reviews to see if past travelers were satisfied with the amount of time they spent traveling compared to the amount of time they spent at each attraction. And check the forecast for the day you want to book. Some day trips, especially snorkeling trips, are weather-dependent.

What are the best tips for enjoying Honolulu day trips?

To fully enjoy Honolulu day trips, don’t stay up too late the night before. Most day trips depart early in the morning, so you won’t get to sleep in. Also, even if your trip is scheduled to get back to town in the late afternoon, try not to plan anything firm for that evening. Oahu traffic is notorious, and if your van or bus gets held up, there’s a good chance you won’t get back exactly when planned. Sit back, relax, and enjoy your day trip on island time.
