“Keoki” was our guide and he was so entertaining and coordinated that time really flew by fast! He knows how to give the participants a proper overview of history, important scenery, mixed with a big dose of humor. We were thoroughly enlightened and entertained. I highly recommend this tour under his skillful direction!

I had an amazing time on my tour around Oahu yesterday! Our guide, Aka, was incredibly knowledgeable about the culture, history, and local spots—it really made the experience feel more meaningful and authentic. You could tell he truly cares about what he does. Shoutout to our driver, Stewie, who made the whole trip smooth and safe. He was also super fun to talk to at every stop and added to the overall great vibe of the day. Highly recommend this tour if you want to explore the island while actually learning and enjoying every moment!

We had a great time on the surf bus. We are a 3 generation family and this tour was perfect. We are the grandparents- we went to the waterfall/botanical gardens option. The gardens are amazing. Our younger members snorkeled and kayaked. They had a ball our tour guide, Sam, did an outstanding job of keeping our interest. Don’t hesitate

What a fantastic way to experience Oahu if you have limited time but want to see as much as possible. The tour operator Papa P picked us up promptly at 0555 hours from Hilton Hawaiian village. We had a total of 21 in our group. The first stop was Pearl harbor museum and USS Arizona memorial. What a somber sight but necessary to remember our history so we learn and teach our future generations. Next trip was to grab lunch at shrimp da bomb on the way to Polynesian Cultural Center (PCC). The food was average at best and very expensive but we were hungry so anything would have been sufficient. The PCC was a fantastic experience which incorporated not only Hawaiian culture but Aotearoa, Fiji, Samoa, Tahiti, Tonga. This was reminiscent of Disney World with restaurants of the world all together. Each section had its own styles from the specific representative culture, with not only traditional shows like dancing, music and fire but hands on immersive experiences. The Dole Pineapple plantation could have been better as it was just the shop for us. We didn't have time for the train ride through the pineapple farms or the maze. Along the way, Papa P planned numerous short stops to popular touristic destinations like Kualoa Ranch where many movie scenes were filmed on location including Jurassic Park. Other brief stops included but not limited to the Banzai Pipeline, Sharks Cove and Turtle Bay for photo ops. Along the journey, we stopped at some roadside food and shopping places for coffee, fruits, jewelry and knicknacks. Papa P also narrated the trip which was quite interesting in learning the historical aspects of where we passed on the way. All in all, a great excursion and Papa P should get be praised for his interest in our personal experience.

If you only have a short time on Oahu, this is a good way to see different parts of the island and visit all the highlights like Diamond Head, a macadamia nut farm, coffee farm and pineapple farm. The Tanaka Shrimp restaurant had delicious choices even if you don’t like shrimp. I chose the garlic shrimp but others chose the chicken or vegetarian options and all were excellent. Nikki was our guide and she was very accommodating and friendly. Even though she wasn’t a native Hawaiian, she was very knowledgeable of everything along the way and easily answered questions.

Henry is a wonderful tour guide. He provided historical information and was just a pleasure to be around. He was funny and made everyone feel like ohana. We didn’t get to do the north side of the island due to flooding but Henry was accommodating and showed great resilience when we had to detour. It is a very informative tour and I appreciated all that it offered. Mahalo for great experience!

This was an amazing tour of Oahu, made even better by our tour guide, Will. It was a full day of seeing all the sights Oahu has to offer. Trust Will when he tells you what to order at all the different venues. He was spot on! Don't eat breakfast! Although we didn't swim or snorkel, we did see turtles at the beach stop. Just an awesome day!

The perfect tour. Just the right amount of time at all the locations with a small group. Chris was the best guide, knowledgeable and kept us entertained in between sights… his food recommendations were also spot on for the food trucks. Would definitely recommend this tour.
