Excellent tour with Christine
Informative and helpful
Loved seeing the turtles!
I would highly recommend !
Scott_K, May 2026
Our driver was wonderful and had all kinds of information for us as we went to the different places around the island
Denise, May 2026
It was a fun way to see the island. It was wonderful having the knowledge of someone who has lived here his whole life. Tyler was very knowledgeable.
Yvonne_G, Mar 2026
The sales info said food trucks for lunch however we had to order from one place.
Our driver was very informative however in the past I have had native Hawaiian guides who were able to give a more cultural overview
eleanor_M, Feb 2026
We enjoyed seeing the whole island but the commentary was very limited , focused almost exclusively on surfing . It was interesting to see the surf beaches and some enormous waves but unless you are mad about surfing there was not much else . No history or culture . We felt this tour was overpriced. There are lots of Circular Tours and we wished we’d picked a different one !
Robyn_H, Dec 2025
Heather was great and knew a lot about the island! She was engaging and friendly which made the tour that much more fun!
Maria_M, Dec 2025
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.

Had an amazing tour, Heather was very knowledgeable and made it fun! Although it was all day, it felt like family making memories.
Denita_H, Nov 2025
Our driver was Heather. She was very professional knowledge full of joy. She was very helpful. I give her 5 plus stars. We were expecting more from the Dole plantation . No reflection on our driver. She made us feel safe. She was a good driver. May God continue to bless her and your company. My husband and I were well pleased with our driver.
Susan_M, Oct 2025
Travis was absolutely awesome. He was extremely knowledgeable, the trip was a lot of fun. I would definitely recommend this trip
Thomas_C, Oct 2025
The tour was awesome. The tour guide, Tyler, was informative, friendly and funny. i learned a lot about Hawaii. He also helped us book another tour tomorrow which we are looking forward to.
Kim_L, Oct 2025
Tyler our guide was great. We really enjoyed the tour and all the information Tyler told us. We would recommend this to everyone.
Jennifer_C, Oct 2025
Tyler was great hosting our tour around the island. Very knowledgable and insightful, pointing out lots along the way
Lorin_S, Oct 2025
Was a very good tour. Driver and giude was entrtaining and had a lot of knowledge. I would recomend to everyone. Beautiful scenery.
Lamont_C, Oct 2025
Nevin was awesome very knowledgeable, young man. My only input would be there wasn’t enough time to explore the Dole plantation. They may wanna shorten the Turtle watch because you really didn’t see any. Their head stuck up a couple times but it shortened our visit to Dole.
CarenJ_B, Sep 2025
Brief stops for views and quick shopping. At the macadamia nut farm it was a 20 minute stop essentially to buy macadamia’s. At the Dole pineapple plantation it was a 20 minute stop to stand in line to buy a dole whip which was overly sweet and not very good. The other stops were to look at views which were nice. But a lot of of the more popular views were omitted. Also, our guide spent most of the time talking about surfing to a group that was basically 60 and over. It was pretty boring. I would’ve liked to hear more about the history of the island and what’s happening culturally.
Dena_H, Sep 2025
Listen to your tour guide and go with recommendations they provide and you will have the best experience on this tour!
Travis_B, Aug 2025
It is a very fun experience our guide was very knowledgeable about the whole island and was very funny and kept us entertained the entire time! Was such a fun day would highly recommend.
Mark_K, Jul 2025
This was an excellent tour what made the tour extra special was the driver tour director. She was amazing (Sierra) ! I would highly recommend this this and try to ask for Sierra as your tour guide!
Beth_C, Jul 2025
We had a great afternoon exploring the island. Malia was our tour guide and she told us many facts about the island and shared with us the history of the island. We were able to stop at many places along the way to take pictures and to just enjoy the beauty of the island. I highly recommend this tour.
Michelle_C, Jul 2025
Great way for everyone in your party to enjoy the island without having to rent a car. So many fun stops and beautiful views!
Shannon_A, Jun 2025
Our tour guide Michelle was great! Such a sweet and knowledgeable lady. She was professional as well as having a good personality and funny. A very long drive due to traffic and road work but a nice way to see different parts of the island.
Crystal_M, Jun 2025
Our tour guide Heather was awesome! She was very knowledgeable and made the day so much fun! My daughter made a new best friend on the island hanging out with her!
John_D, Jun 2025
We took this tour on June 2nd. It was a full day tour with small group on a mini tour bus. Clean and mostly comfortable, but one seat had a seat belt buckle casing broken off. The driver/guide did his best to fix the problem however.
Great overview of Oahu, with plenty of stops, things to see, history, information and funny anecdotes from our guide.
Highly recommended, a fun, relaxed tour!
Gloria_A, Jun 2025
Our guide Heather was absolutely amazing so knowledgeable and fun to spend the day with if you get a chance to have a full circle tour of Oahu, this should be your only choice!!!
George_B, May 2025
This excursion was amazing!! Our tour guide, Heather, went over and beyond to make it a memorable day. She was so friendly, conscientious and considerate! She spent extra time telling us about the different landmarks and stops we made. She was very knowledgeable about Hawaii and its history. Because it was a smaller group it was more personalized and the group got to know each other better. We made new friends. The whole day over exceeded my expectations. It was wonderful from beginning to end!!
Midje_T, May 2025
The tour location was as listed in the description, visiting many of the islands top destinations. The tour lasted about 7.5 hours, longer than expected through no fault of our guide there was road construction traffic. Our guide Lucas was amazing, he actually made the trip. Was very knowledgeable, personable, great sense of humor. I have been on numerous tours in various well known cities and countries and he was by far the best! 5 ⭐️
Eduardo_J, May 2025
Fabulous experience. Lucas was a best-seller guide. So funny, knows a lot about Hawai history, drive safely… everything was perfect. The tour stops on many beautiful places. And the Shrimp lince was delicious. Truly recommended.
Nancy_M, May 2025
Heather was a fantastic tour guide and told us so many details about what we were seeing and about life in Hawaii. It was a wonderful overview of Oahu!
Elizabeth_S, Apr 2025
This was a wonderful tour taking in alot of sites without becoming boring. The small group size made it feel, as our guide, Heather said, like we were family. Heather did an outstanding job of providing information about each site we visited or drove past. All I
in all it was the best and most comfortable way to take in a multitude of sights. Excellent job, Heather. Come ride the roller coasters in Ohio!
