All Reviews for Top Places to Visit in Oahu

The tour was wonderful! Sarah was our guide was fun and informative. It was very enjoyable. I would highly recommend this tour.

We were picked up promptly and driver very informative. Dropped off on time to do our event. Upon completion driver there with our fresh malasadas. Then took us and got us seated for our açaí bowls. Came back, on schedule, an hour later and then dropped us back off at our hotel. All so perfectly done and what a pleasant driver.

Excellent hotel to crater service. Adam was courteous and knowledgeable.

I participated with my family, and it was a truly valuable experience to be able to pilot a Cessna. The pilot who accompanied us was very kind, and it was an enjoyable flight. Flying around Oahu, crossing over Waikiki and Diamond Head, was refreshing and exciting! The program is fantastic as it allows you to take in the sights of Oahu from above, as you circle all the way around to the North Shore. Of course, holding the controls and piloting really makes you feel like a bird! It's a rare experience, so if you have the chance, definitely go for it!

家族で参加したのですが、
何せ、セスナを操縦できるということで大変貴重な体験でした。
同乗したパイロットの方が大変優しく、楽しいフライトでした。
オアフ島を１周、ワイキキ市街からダイヤモンドヘッドを横切り、上空を飛行するのは爽快で、興奮しました！
ノースショアまでぐるっと１周丸々周るので、オアフ島を俯瞰で観光できる、素晴らしいプログラムです。
もちろん、操縦桿を握って操縦すると本当に鳥になったような気分です！
滅多にできる経験ではないのでチャンスがあれば是非！！

We had a wonderful time on this adventure to the north shore on Oahu. Cousin G was our guide and he did a great job taking care of us and keeping things lively. He was so knowledgeable of the history and the area and all the ins and outs of where to go. He was really funny, too! Waimea falls was beautiful and the next stop we opted for paddle boarding. We didn't see any sea turtles, but it was still fun and peaceful. We had a small group of 10, which I don't think is usual, but it was a treat for us because we could move around easily and quickly get in and out of places. We'd highly recommend this to anyone!!

A little difficult to navigate and see things. You’re on your own, so you’ll really need to be cognizant of the area and where to anchor down. Sand bar was a bit out, but was a great experience. Not for beginners but also not terribly difficult. Bring a watch or phone, the kayaks are very stable and didn’t tip on us when trying to get back in. Staff was great

We celebrated the night before our marriage on this event. We were a large group of 27. They accommodated us and sat us all together. The entertainment and the food were excellent. The servers kept everything flowing and joyful. Very organized and fun. I really enjoyed the dancers and singers. They performed in front of us and had them all over so everyone could enjoy them. The only bummer was that I specifically chose to go on the Friday sunset cruise for the firework show. However, it didn’t happen due to the winds. I was very sad. Other than that, I thought it was a fabulous experience.

So much fun beautiful scenery staff was knowledgeable and nice.

Overall great experience with a good meal, friendly crew, and add-ons to capture the adventure.

I would do it again. But I'd some time of approved boat shoe or water shoe. Not a fan of barefoot in public areas.

The Sunset Cocktail Cruise was so much fun. The drinks and appetizers were amazing.
The entire Crew was very friendly and accommodating with serving drinks, appetizers and offering to snap photos.
We look forward to Cruising again next January

Due to the rainy season in January, unfortunately, it rained quite a bit on the day, but it stopped by the time we went horseback riding. They provide a raincoat (a sturdy one), so you don't need to bring your own. The instructional video was in Japanese, but the instructor spoke only English. The horses are cute, well-trained, and smart. The scenery is magnificent and definitely worth seeing. Despite the unfortunate weather, I was very satisfied with this optional tour. The downside is that the shuttle bus was as cold as a refrigerator, so warm clothing is necessary.

1月雨季のため、残念ながら当日も結構な雨、
でも、乗馬する頃には止みました。
レインコート(生地のしっかりしたもの)は
貸してくれるので、持参しなくてもいいです。
説明のビデオは、日本語でしたが、
インストラクターは、英語オンリー
馬は可愛い、よく躾けられて賢いです。
景色は壮大です。是非、見るべき、
あいにくの天気でしたが、このオプショナルツアー大満足です。
マイナス点は、送迎のバス内が、
冷蔵庫のように寒い事ですね。防寒が、必要。

Our Oahu Island Circle Tour was so much fun! Alan was our guide and he was very knowledgeable about the island and all of Hawaii in general since he was born and raised there! This tour operator could not have hired a better person to tell people about the beautiful islands of Hawaii. He loves where he lives and it shows in his work. Our tour was very personal with just the three of us in the vehicle. We were able to travel at our own pace. Alan treated us to the sites and foods of island life, something we could not have seen and done on our own. The Dole Pineapple Plantation was so interesting and delicious - you must try the Dole Whip! Amazing! The North Shore was captivating with the huge waves coming in and we did see some sea turtles swimming in shallow areas. This is a must do experience!

The tour was very entertaining and the guides knowledgeable about everything we wanted to learn about. The weather was drizzly and overcast but they offered rain ponchos free of charge which was very helpful. Would use them again!

Thank you!

The staff was very friendly and accommodating. The experience was wonderful, even though the day was not sunny and it was a little windy. The snorkeling was amazing, and we definitely saw a bunch of turtles! The boat ride was smooth, and the water was nice! Definitely recommend, it was totally worth it!

I participated in January 2023.
The view of the land from the sea was incredibly beautiful. The sunset was also wonderful. However, as the day went on, the wind picked up and it got quite cold, so I spread out the beach towel I brought and used it to sit on and cover my shoulders. It might be a good idea to bring a jacket during this time. Although there was an all-you-can-drink option, it was too cold, and I could only have one drink at the start. When the catamaran set sail, everyone started dancing to the upbeat music and stood up to take photos, creating a very cheerful atmosphere. Although Japanese was not spoken, the vibe was very lively.

2023年１月に参加
海から見える陸の景色は最高にきれいでした。サンセットもすばらしかった。しかしだんだんと日が暮れていくにつれて、この日は風も強くて、だいぶ寒くなり持参したバスタオルを敷いて座ったり、肩にかけたりしていた。この時期上着は持って行った方がいいかも。飲み放題だったけど寒くて最初の１杯しか飲めなかった。カタマラン号が出航するとノリノリの音楽に合わせて踊りだしたり、立ちあがって写真を撮ったりとみんなとても陽気に楽しんでいた。日本語は通じませんが、とてもノリの良い雰囲気でした。

When I woke up in the morning and looked outside, it was cloudy... Since it looked cold, I wore a swimsuit, a rash guard, and a light jumper! There were four staff members on the boat, and they were all wearing thick hoodies (laughs). We arrived at the sandbar quickly from where the boat was anchored! The water was about waist-deep, and despite the clouds, it was surprisingly clear and beautiful! They lent us paddleboards and floaties, so we spent time taking pictures and having fun at the sandbar! After that, we put on life jackets and snorkels and swam to see the honu! It was quite deep, but wearing a life jacket made it completely fine! There were a lot of participants, so it was a bit crowded for swimming. We were able to see about 3-4 honu (^ - ^). After getting out of the water, it was so cold that I was shivering, so having a thick hoodie or sweatshirt might be a good idea! On the boat, there were snacks, warm water, coffee, and one spam onigiri per person! The snacks were all-you-can-eat, so I tried some that I had never eaten before! They were all delicious snacks, so I bought some as souvenirs at a local supermarket! Since there was a little time after getting off the boat, some people were changing. It was really cold, so I wish I had brought a change of clothes... One of the staff members spoke Japanese, so I could hear the explanations in Japanese! It was a valuable experience!!

朝起きて外を見たら、曇り、、、
寒そうだったので水着＋ラッシュガード＋薄手のジャンパーみたいなものを羽織って行きました！
船のスタッフは4名いましたが、みなさん厚めのパーカーを羽織ってました(笑)
船の停まってる場所からサンドバーまではすぐ到着しました！腰くらいの高さでしたが、曇りの割に水が透き通って見えてとても綺麗でした！
パドルボートや浮き輪を貸してくれたので、サンドバーで楽しみながら写真を撮ったりして過ごしました！
その後、ライフジャケットとシュノーケルをつけて、ホヌに会いに泳ぎました！結構深いところですが、ライフジャケットを着てるので全く問題なかったです！
参加者が多かったので、泳ぎにくさはありました。3-4匹のホヌに会えることができました(^-^)
海から上がった後は震えるくらい寒かったので、厚手のパーカーやトレーナーがあると、いいかもしれません！
船上ではスナック、あったかい水・コーヒー、1人1個スパムおにぎりがありした！！スナックは食べ放題なので、食べたことのないスナックを食べました！！どれも美味しいスナックなので、お土産に地元のスーパーでも買いました！
船から降りてから少し時間もあったので、着替えてる方もいました。とにかく寒かったので着替え持参しておけばよかった、、
スタッフのうち1名、日本語スタッフがいてくれたので、説明は日本語で聞けました！
貴重な経験ができました！！

It was cloudy, but driving the buggy on the vast grounds was an amazing experience! Although it was only for two hours, we stopped at various points for photo opportunities! We went as a pair, and since we could switch drivers four times, we each got to drive twice!

I thought it might be a bit chilly, so I wore a T-shirt, long pants, and a light windbreaker! Almost everyone except for the Japanese was in T-shirts and shorts!

There were no staff who spoke Japanese, and everything from the initial explanation upon arrival to the end was in English, so there were many things I didn't understand. However, before driving the buggy, I was relieved to watch a Japanese explanation video!

I showed my passport before getting on the shuttle bus and presented my Japanese driver's license before driving the buggy. They provided helmets and goggles! Since we drove in a line of about six buggies, the dust from the buggy in front hit us directly, making our faces completely black (laughs). It might be good to have something like a mask or bandana to cover your mouth. After the buggy ride, you can wash off some of the dust at the provided water station, but without cleansing, only about 30% of it comes off, so it might be better not to wear makeup... (laughs). The photo time during the ride also resulted in very dusty faces, so in a way, it became a good memory! (laughs)

Since the clothes also get brown from the dust, it might be better to wear clothes that you don't mind throwing away! After it was over, we had free time until the bus pickup, and we had a light snack at the cafeteria. They had various options like hot dogs and hamburgers.

There are lockers available, but they said cash wouldn't give change, so payment was by card. Only VISA or MasterCard could be used. I think the cafeteria also accepted only VISA or MasterCard!

Driving the buggy was easy! The scenery was beautiful, and there were many filming locations, making it a lot of fun!

曇りでしたが、広大な敷地でバギーを運転し、最高な経験になりました！2時間ですが、所々でバギーをとめて、写真時間がありました！２人で行きましたが、4回交代できたので2回ずつ運転することができました！
肌寒いかなと思ったので、Tシャツ＋長ズボン＋薄手のウィンドブレーカーみたいなものを羽織って行きました！日本人以外はほとんどTシャツ＋短パンでした！
日本語が話せるスタッフがおらず、到着後の最初の説明から最後まで、全て英語だったので、わからないことも多々ありましたが、バギーの運転の前には、日本語の説明ビデオが見られたので安心しました！
送迎バスに乗る前にパスポートを提示し、バギー運転前に日本の免許証を提示しました。
ヘルメットとゴーグルは貸してくれました！6台くらいで連なって走行するので、前のバギーの砂埃が直撃して、顔は真っ黒になります(笑)口元を覆えるような、マスクやバンダナみたいなものがあると良いかもしれません。バギー終了後に、備え付けの水道で、なんとなく砂埃は落とせますが、クレンジングがないと、3割くらいしか落ちないので、お化粧しないほうがいいかも、、笑　途中の写真Timeも真っ黒な顔だったので、ある意味いい思い出になりました！笑
洋服も砂埃で茶色くなるので、捨てても大丈夫なような洋服がいいかもしれないです！
終わった後はバスのお迎えまで自由時間で、カフェテリアで軽食を食べました。ホットドッグやハンバーガーなど色々あります。
ロッカーもありますが、キャッシュはお釣りがでないとのことで、カード支払いでした。VISAかMasterしか使えないです。カフェテリアもVISAかMasterだった気がします！
バギーの運転は簡単でした！とても景色もいいし、映画の撮影場所が多く、楽しかったです！

The guides were fun and knowledgeable about the ranch. It’s a beautiful place. I wish the goggles had worked a little better and maybe a couple more stops to look at things. Over all was great and would love to do a couple other things there.

This is MUST Tour especially if you dont have a rental car! This tour literally stops at ALL the sites and gives you a treat of the island Malasadas and local Shrimp truck at North Shore! The driver was very informative and had the impossible task to keep us on schedule. Very small group of intetesting people and SO Thankful for this option and got dropped off right at our hotel door!! Best Island Tour on Oahu!! Thank you!!

Great fun for my family with teenagers and friends! Something to do for everyone /)

Such an amazing experience, All the staff were very friendly and knowledgeable. They helped with everything, the live music was amazing and added to the experience. Great vocals by Jesse! Highly recommend! 5 stars!!

Aloha my Pearl Harbor tour was quite fantastic! We truly enjoyed the informational experience. It was a long day though.

We love the Oahu circle island tour! It was a great activity, I would definitely consider booking if it is your first time visiting the island.

We had a wonderful morning! The team working the adventure was helpful and knowledgeable. We highly recommend it! Our family of 4 ( 2 adults and 2 children: age 11 and 6) and our friend that was visiting has a blast kayaking, SUP and hanging out on the floating island. Music was awesome! My kids love the lemonade and donuts.

It was a fun experience, our tour guide Stephanie was informative, kind, funny and patient. The sights she took us to see were breathtaking. The sunrise at Diamond head was amazing!

The sea was beautiful, and I saw a lot of fish. It was shallow, so the distance to the coral was close. There are various activities included, so you can really enjoy yourself.

海も綺麗でお魚が沢山みれました。
浅いので珊瑚との距離が近かったです。
アクティビティが色々ついているのでしっかり楽しめます

The sea was crystal clear and there were lots of fish!

I was looking forward to visiting the filming location since I had been watching Jurassic Park! It was a lot of fun to see the scenery that appeared in the movie.

ジュラシックパークを観ていたのでその撮影地ということで楽しみにしていました！
映画で出ていた景色もあってとても楽しかったです。

The scenery at Kualoa Ranch was amazing! We stopped at photo spots and were able to take commemorative pictures. Two hours felt a bit long. It was fun to go through the river!
