What are people saying about Oahu

Kailua Bay, Oahu: Epic Kayak and Snorkel to Islands

Lucia_C, Oct 2026

Fantastic Turtle Day!

Excellent place to rent a kayak! My recommendation is to drive over there and explore the other side of Oahu!! Wesley (Our guide) was professional and friendly! He went beyond expectations to ensure we had a fun a safe trip! I will no recommend to do a solo trip unless you are familiar with the currents and rift. We saw plenty of turtles and a Monk Sealion!!! I had a fantastic time!! Ahh if you take a tour, you can use their equipment for free until 5 PM!!

Pearl Harbor Tribute: Arizona Memorial and Honolulu City Tour

Leonard_G, Oct 2026

Great tour with a twist

The guide was great, well planned and small group (12 people). Had plenty of time. Recommend highly. Just a heads up- I will say that our tour time and pickup location were very inconveniently changed at the very last minute - not sure if our original time was overbooked or if the driver medical emergency was real. If real, why were we given the privilege to fill the last 2 available spots on the tour we took? What happened to all the other people on our original tour time! Strange! Otherwise, a great tour.

Cameron_B, Oct 2026

Greet tour but Viator was vague in directions

Kevin was a great guide and very helpful and accommodating. My only issue is that through Victor often the directions were unclear or vague which created a mixup that had nothing to do with the tour company. I’ve done a dozen Viator linked tours around the world, and I consistently see this as a problem.

Rob_S, Sep 2026

Wonderful overview of the island

A very well paced tour giving a good overall feel for the island. Andrew, our guide, was informative, helpful and attentive throughout the day and assisted in taking some wonderful photos. Perfect times stop at coffee plantation for coffee and a snack to kick start the morning. Waimea Valley for a picturesque swim with waterfall as a backdrop was very memorable. Food truck stop food was excellent. Overall a great trip and highly recommended

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

Oahu Circle Island Tour with Waimea Valley Waterfall

Marilu, Jul 2026

Wonderful intro to Hawaii!!

This was my first tour since arriving to Honolulu and I’m grateful that it was with Robert Chao. Robert is personable, knowledgeable, and just so much fun!!! He knows so much local history and has such an entertaining way of narrating it. He had facts, anecdotes and humor from beginning to end, really heightening my curiosity for Hawaii’s history and culture. The tour is a must-do and if you get Robert know that you’re in great company!! He will enhance your experience and you’ll feel like you just made a new friend.

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!

Pearl Harbor, USS Arizona Memorial & Honolulu Deluxe Coach Tour

Cathy_S, Jun 2026

Must see Pearl Harbor, USSArizona Missouri and Honolulu!

Our guide RoRo was the best! From pickup to drop off, everything was easy and convenient! She gave us lots of information about the memorial and other sites we visited and was so helpful, after dropping us off at The Missouri, she went back to look for (and found!) a lost couple without making the rest of the group have to wait! We were going to do a hop on/hop off tour, but she did such a great job showing us the sights, we didn’t need to. The memorials were outstanding, the park rangers informative, and altogether an experience we will never forget!

Oahu Circle Island Snorkeling Tour: Dole, Pali Lookout & More

Juliejane_F, Jun 2026

Fantastic Circle Oahu Tour - Highly recommended!

We had an amazing experience on this tour! We stopped at the Blowhole, visited several beautiful beaches, enjoyed delicious prawns and chicken for lunch, and even went snorkeling. We also visited the Dole Plantation and rode the famous Pineapple Express train, which was a fun and unique experience. Along the way, we stopped at Leonard’s Bakery for their famous donuts, sampled plenty of free coffee, bought lots of souvenirs, and met many friendly people in our tour group. Our bus driver and tour guide, Tim, was outstanding. He was very friendly, knowledgeable about Hawaii, and an excellent driver. He even provided complimentary snacks and bottled water throughout the day. Tim shared lots of useful tips about Hawaii, including great hiking spots, local recommendations, and interesting facts about the island. His sense of humor kept everyone entertained, and his jokes had us laughing throughout the tour! Overall, this was a fun, well-organized tour with plenty to see and do. We saw so much of Oahu in just one day and made wonderful memories along the way. We highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Hawaii. Thank you, Tim, for making our day so enjoyable and memorable!

Very nice tour, long up...

Very nice tour, long up hill climb but 2 hrs is enough to get up and down, even for a couple of 70+ year old. I would to have water for the hike not after, we ended up buying a bottle. Matthew did a good job driving and explaining about the area and what to expect on the hike

Unforgettable Day on Oahu | Small Group Circle Island Tour

Maria_M, Dec 2025

Great mix of local treasures and tourist areas

This was a great way to get to see a lot of the island in a short time frame. We really enjoyed the mix of look out views, more tourist stops, and hidden treasures (like a really good lunch at a local shrimp restaurant). Our guide Nevin was really knowledgeable and accommodating. If you haven't been to Oahu before, this will give you a great start to getting to know the sights/locations so you can plan the rest of your trip depending if you wanted adventure or relaxation.
