Top Oahu Private Sightseeing Tours

Elf was a great guide but traffic made the car trip longer and less time to maybe stop at the roadside views. Being our first trip to Hawaii we were unaware of the travel time between the sites we wanted to see. It took more than two hours for a round trip to north end and when they are trimming trees on a two lane road, it takes longer. We also spent about 1.5 hours at Waimea valley nature preserve walking to the waterfall and interacting with a cultural ambassador at the garden. Elf Took a beautiful picture of us overlooking Waimea Bay, her suggestion of a pose was spot on. Elf is very knowledgeable about the Island and we enjoyed her company. She did make an agenda that met our needs. We had one food truck to try but it was giovanis garlic shrimp which was great. She did stop at a road side and we tried a wonderful drink called oti. The macadamia farm we stopped at was not very educational because we did not get to even see the tree that macadamia nuts come from but they are socially responsible.

I have never written a review before. This tour is a must for so many reasons. To start, John our guide was always available before the tour for any questions we may have, both by email and phone. The pickup at the cruise ship was seamless and the mini van was immaculate and comfortable. He made sure we saw what we wanted to see and his knowledge of the culture was beyond belief. John was personable and kind. We would definitely tour with him again. Oh, and he took photos of us with his camera and sent us a link to them along with some of his favorite shots of the things we saw. John, mahalo!!!

Aaron provided us with an exceptional helicopter tour. He pointed out all the highlights and so much more. It was a smooth ride all the way through even though he had to navigate a little turbulence for a brief rain shower. He made us feel comfortable and safe. What a kind soul. The entire process was super easy from booking to checking in until landing. I highly recommend this private helicopter tour around the island. 10 /10
