It’s a must!

Myra_G, Jul 2025

It’s a full day of activities. The tour guide is very knowledgeable, nice & friendly. Would recommend to my families & friends.

The Surf Bus knows the North Shore!

Bryan_S, Mar 2025

Uncle Kevin is the best! His insight into local history is just as amazing as his knowledge of current activities and food spots to visit. He truly wants to know what kind of fun you want to have and he delivers. Uncle Kevin makes this tour a one of a kind if you want to enjoy the North Shore.

Cancelled

Alexa_H, Feb 2023

Cancelled with less than 2 hours notice. Voicemail left at after 7am for a 9AM departure. I was unable to make any other arrangements - I was held to a 24 hour cancel policy but they didn’t extend the same courtesy.

Response from Host, Feb 2023

We’re not quite sure what company you are talking about. We don’t go out on Saturday’s (feb 4th) from that location. We don’t have your party on record. If there is some kind of confusion we are happy to clear it up. 808-226-7299
