What are people saying about Oahu

Diamond Head Hiking Tour with Tickets and Shuttle Included

Janet_K, Oct 2026

This hike is so worth it. The view from the top is amazing.

Don’t be afraid of the staircase. Since Covid, they have added a secondary route that takes you around volcano instead of having to go all the way up the stairs. Although you still have some stairs, it’s not nearly as grueling for those of us with older legs and older knees. On top of that, it gives you a lot more opportunities of a beautiful view on your way up! Any money you now have to spend to claim Diamondhead is still a positive because the money is used to continue the beautification.

Small-Group Oahu Circle Island Tour with Professional Photography

John_D, Sep 2026

Great small group tour of Oahu with a tremendous guide

Great tour of the island, went to and saw many highlight spots on Oahu. Van was comfortable and AC worked well. Group was small 12 total and we were picked up at our hotel right on time. The biggest highlight of the tour was the guide Alaura. A funny and very friendly young lady; Hawaiian born and very knowledgeable of the island and its history. You may want to have water shoes if you plan to swim at the beach. The lunch, although not included was reasonably priced and was very tasty, several different types of shrimp from which to chose. Multiple shopping opportunities amongst the many stops. Many great photo opportunities. Great way to see the island in one all day tour.

Oahu Day Tour with Waterfalls Food Trucks and Lookout Points

Fantastic First Day on the Island!

I highly recommend this all day tour! Emily was an amazing tour guide and she did a great job sharing interesting facts about the island. We took this tour on our first day in Oahu and went back to many of the places that she took and some others that she told us about during our drive. One tip I have for people is to take water shoes to put on at the waterfall. The rocks that you have to walk on to climb into the waterfall aren't super comfortable with bare feet.

All Caps.

Very informative. So much to see. Got to see things we would have never seen. Caps was our driver for the tour. He was the BEST. From the moment he picked us up till the moment he dropped us off always had a smile on his face and a funny story to tell.

Waikiki 2 Hours Friday Night Fireworks Catamaran Cruise

Taylor_G, Aug 2026

Amazing crew and great time!

Alexio caymo and shaymus We’re amazing we went out the day before Lala the hurricane hit and I was very nervous but the captain did an amazing job of keeping the mood light with good jokes and keeping everyone safe. The second I started to feel unwell from the waves he turned the boat around to go with the water and it was a great time! The crew was amazing I would recommend this tour to everyone! Fireworks are only 5 min long but good enough to get some photos and videos. Again such a funny and uplifting captain

This tour was very good best way to see the island the only thing is I wish I knew you do not have a lot of time at each stop to do activities like ride the train at dole plantation. I would recommend this tour to others but the only thing was our tour guide was a little negative

Waikiki Sunset Cocktail Sail on the Moana Catamaran

Barbara_L, Jul 2026

The Best!!

Peaceful, fun, attentive staff, great music, strong/ good drinks, and an excellent atmosphere for a wonderful cruise. The staff was great looking at something in the water and finding out it was a raft that they took on board. Thank you so much! We took the same cruise two Fridays in a row and loved them both!

Awesome experience and knowledgeable tour guide

Oahu Dolphin and Snorkel Tour with Waikiki Pickup & Lunch

Iselda_R, Jul 2026

An Unforgettable Snorkeling Adventure with an Amazing Crew!

This was such a memorable experience! The scenery was absolutely breathtaking, and getting to watch dolphins in the wild and see a sea turtle living its best life was incredible. The crew made the day even more special. They were fun, friendly, and genuinely cared about everyone on board. I especially want to thank Captain Ben, Ingrid, Kainoa, Kiara, and Kyoka. My oldest son is autistic (high functioning), and they were so attentive, patient, and thoughtful. They made sure he was comfortable and enjoying himself throughout the trip. As a parent, that meant the world to me. A huge mahalo to all of you for your kindness and compassion! Ingrid was also incredibly knowledgeable about the island and shared so many interesting facts that made the experience even better. I also highly recommend purchasing the photo package. I'm so glad I did! Kiara captured so many beautiful photos, allowing me to stay present and enjoy the adventure while knowing those special moments were being preserved. This was truly one of the highlights of our Hawaii vacation, and I would absolutely do it again. Highly recommend! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Amazing Tour for First Time on the Island

From pick-up to the last stop on the tour was seamless. This was our first time on Oahu, so we wanted to see some of the well-known attractions on the island. This did not disappoint! Allen was our driver for the day, and he was great! He provided knowledge about history and the culture of the island. Don’t think about it, book it! You won’t regret it!

Johnny was great! Very...

Johnny was great! Very friendly and knowledgeable about the island. Gave great recommendations, especially for great restaurants to try! The tour provided an excellent opportunity to view many different portions of the island and was a great opportunity to see other parts of Ohua other than Waikiki. The tour stopped at or drove by many recommended locations. There were many opportunities for excellent pictures and delicious snacks!
