The Oahu Photography Tour was perfect for seeing beautiful spots on the Oahu island we wouldn't have visited. Emily was a great tour guide - personable, upbeat, fun and knowledgeable. And we learned a few tips when taking photos with our cell phones. We highly recommend this tour and would do it again without hesitation.

Loved this tour! So many beautiful sights. I’m a solo traveler and have gone on quite a few of Viator tours and this was the best I’ve done! Chris was a great tour guide and really elevated the entire tour.

The Beautiful Colors of Hawaii tour with Chris was nothing short of incredible. From start to finish, it was an unforgettable experience. Chris is knowledgeable, passionate, and truly loves what he does and it shows in every moment of the tour. The scenery was breathtaking, the stops were perfectly timed, and we got to see parts of Hawaii we never would have discovered on our own. Chris shared fascinating history, local insight, and fun stories that made the island come alive in a way no guidebook ever could.
Everything was seamless, relaxed, and thoughtfully planned. This wasn’t just a tour it felt like being shown around paradise by a local friend. I left with amazing photos, great memories, and a much deeper appreciation for Hawaii. If you’re on the fence, book it. This tour was truly amazing and one of the highlights of our trip. Mahalo, Chris!

Andrew was a great guide. Even though I’ve been a few times to Hawaii he still managed to take me to a few places I hadn’t been! Weather wasn’t great but we still got some good shots!
Tiffany_H, Dec 2025
Kurt was amazing. The tour was very beautiful. Our guide was very knowledgeable about the sites that we visited and he even gave us some photography gems as well. I wish that I would have taken the tour earlier instead of waiting until my last day. I would have loved to see more.
Denise_K, Dec 2025
This is a great excursion For anyone that wants to see much of the islands highlights and get expert help in setting up your photographic compositions. There was enough time at each stop to enjoy the views, get your shots, get help from the guide, and not feel rushed. Kurt is a fabulous guide showing us his love of the island.

Review (Rewritten):
My wife and I were in Hawaii for our honeymoon, our first trip here and our first big tour—and it did not disappoint. Everything was spot-on. The views were incredible, the conversation was easy, and the food was great. Malcolm has an awesome energy and a sharp eye for photography. We ended up getting way more than just a tour; he took a ton of photos of us at every stop. It felt like a photoshoot and a tour wrapped into one. If you’re going to book any tour, make it this one.

Great tour. Saw a lot on the tour and Andrew was a friendly and wonderful tour guide. Highly recommend to do this tour

Chris was Absolutely Fantastic!!
He was Very Knowledgeable about all our stops and Helped Us take pictures. We are looking forward to booking more Viator Excursions and we hope to see Chris soon.

Emily was an excellent tour guide! She used our phone camera to take many personal photos of us with the beautiful scenery. She also made suggestions for unique photos. This was a small group tour and I would highly recommend it.
Mick_O, Aug 2025
Fantastic way to see parts of the island that are often overlooked. Andrew took us to various lookout and points of interest, and showed us various tips for taking better photos. We were all using mobiles, but "proper" cameras also welcome!
We really did see some great views, and visited one huge, almost deserted, beach.
The time flew by, no hesitation in recommending.

Our guide Kurt was outstanding and gave us a wonderful tour with some very helpful tips about making great photos!
Anne_H, May 2025
Kurt was amazing and full of great knowledge about taking photos. Highly recommend this excursion when you’re in Hawaii
Judy_S, Feb 2025
The sites we visited were beautriful and well worth seeing. Loved the lunch and beach stop.
The guide was a bit distriacted by "select participants" on the tour.
This was obvious by the collection of pictures sent out.
Cynthia_C, Jan 2025
Wonderful experience. Alex is the best! A very knowledgeable guide chock full of Hawaiian history and knows the best spots for photos. He even takes pics of the guests. He even has a special surprise for you at the end of the tour.

Mac did an amazing job! He made sure everyone feltincludeda special. His easy conversation was informative and entertaining.
Marlene_L, Oct 2024
We had seen Honolulu and Waikiki Beach on a prior visit so we chose this to focus more on the natural sights this time. We were not disappointed. Curt picked us up on time at the pier port. If you are a cruiser, turn off your airplane mode so that you can get messages from the driver and guide. We went to some amazing outlooks and vistas. The local lunch stop was good. Curt took pics of us and offered advice. He sent us all his shots at the end of the day and treated us to a delicious Hawaiian doughnut. The vehicle was air conditioned and comfortable. There were a total of 7 of us on the tour. Thanks for a great day, Curt.
Renee_H, Oct 2024
We saw beautiful places and our guide provided lots of interesting information along the way. It was a good sized group, only 7 and the guide so it was fairly personalised. The van was comfortable and at the end our guide shared photos he had taken which were fabulous.
Jackeline_V, Oct 2024
The tour guide was very warm, knowledgeable , and motivated, excellent job. I truly enjoyed walking and getting relevant information about every place that we visit plus taking pictures . The food selection was excellent . Highly recommended!
Joseph_B, Sep 2024
View of Honolulu and the island. We would not have found that view on our own. Guide was very personable and made us feel at ease.
Monique_B, Jul 2024
When I tell you that Mac the tour guide gave me life with his energy and humor! I had a BLAST! The stops were AMAZING! Breathtaking views. Definitely gave a little bit of everything in a good amount of time. Not too long or too short as I avoid any tour that says 8 plus hours. I loved all the stops but my favorite was the beach/lunch stop! Mac is HANDS DOWN gonna be my go to tour guide. If he’s hosting..I’m on it!!!
Yolanda_M, Jul 2024
Our tour guide Kurt was very attentive and knowledgeable. We felt very comfortable with our group. Enjoyed it very much I totally recommend this.
Tatum_t, May 2024
Great tour guides Mac and trainee Alex! Awesome food spots and very little walking for such great views.
Elisa_M, May 2024
Kurt was a terrific guide. None of us on the tour had fancy cameras, but I learned some tricks with my iPhone camera. We saw a few sights I had seen before, but also some new ones, and Kurt brought us to a wonderful hole-in-the-wall place for kalua pork and coconut shrimp for lunch. A great experience overall!

On this trip I carried pictures from 1969, when I traveled from Ft Sill, OK, to meet my beloved Army Officer husband for his R&R from the battlefields of Vietnam. He died 12 years ago. I wanted to stand once again in those locations in the pictures, where he once stood, remembering those precious moments. Mac, the WONDERFUL driver that day went above and beyond my greatest expectations, finding those exact spots. I cry in joy even now as I write this review. Thank you, Mac. Thank you, Beautiful Colors of Hawaii Photo Tour for caring for my dream so kindly , by having such a caring employee as Mac. The colors were beautiful! The new memories from this tour are now precious new memories that I will always treasure!

Our Tour Guide Kurt took us to places that were stunning. Such beauty that it was surreal. I have been to Oahu before and I had never been to any of these places. I have so many amazing pictures from this tour. Kurt is a fantastic tour guide. 100 stars for this tour!
Frances_R, Feb 2024
Got picked up in Waikiki, visited a lot of beautiful places I wouldn’t have otherwise seen. Kurt provided a lot of good information on photography and took good care of us. Had fun trying out his tips on all the gorgeous scenery. Stopped for plate lunch. Had a really nice time!
