All Reviews for Oahu Guided Island Sightseeing Tour

My wife and I are so glad we did this on our first day in Hawaii. We were able to appreciate our trip so much more after touring the whole island. Our guide, William Kalani, was so much fun. He was also extremely knowledgeable with his love for his home apparent. Would suggest this tour for anyone!

Definitely a must when its your first time in Hawaii! Enjoyed every minute of it. Tour was the best especially Lola went above and beyond. She made our tour really worth it. She was fun and knowledgeable. She made sure everyone's on board no one gets left behind and enough time to every stop. Highly recommend this tour!!! Would love to come back...

The tour was very informative. We really covered a lot of the island, they call it the Grand Circle Tour for a reason. We met a lot of good people on the bus and the ride was enjoyable. The stops were broken up well, you we never on the bus for more that an hour without stopping. Some of the views were incredible. We had a great time at the food stops, Dole and the Macadamia place. We ate so many macadamia nuts and free coffee. The temple stop was also pretty cool, ringing the bell and going into the Buddhist Temple. The temple was gorgeous. Some of the drawbacks were that several companies do this tour at the same time so some locations are very crowded. That is not really this companies fault. We also got to the blowhole at low tide so there wasn’t much to see there, once again not their fault. The only thing that disappointed me was that my wife and I were looking forward to the Coffee Plant and Soap plant that is an option when you are in Haleiwa. We were not given that option like the tour said you were. When we pulled up to Haleiwa the driver said, “No one wants to go to the Soap Factory, we will all stay here.” That made me sad because I was looking forward to it and will never get that opportunity again. Other than that, I can’t knock the tour for anything else, but I also can’t rate it outstanding.

Kalina was an awesome tour guide. I apologize if I spelled his name wrong. He told us several time and it was the name of our bus . He was so informative and be so funny. He told us so much information and was patient with people who lost track of time at a few of our stops.He was friendly with everyone on the bus . I will like to book a trip with this company again and hope that I get Kalina as my tour guide.

This was so much fun! We got to see part of the island. I got to SUP for the first time. Learned a lot while on the bus. The driver was telling us about the scenery and where certain movies were filmed.

The most relaxing way to see the island. My husband and I enjoyed every stop. We took some incredible pictures. Our favorite was the 90 minute stop at Haleiwa where we had the best shrimp lunch we ever had, walk around the town's local shops and had a cocktail at the end! Our driver Lola was funny and knowledgeable. She deserves the driver of the year 2021 for sure!!!

The tour guide for the Deluxe Oahu Grand Circle Island tour was amazing.
So knowledgeable and entertaining. Our first visit Hawaii and enjoyed every minute. We enjoyed viewing Diamond Head, Hanamua Bay, The Blow Hole,
the North Shore Beach and tasting the mouth watering pineapples at the Dole Pineapple Plantation. I wish our visit never had to end.

Would highly recommend this tour for all ages! Our tour guide Lola made this tour fun and unforgettable. She was so knowledgeable and went above and beyond to tell us all about Hawaii. The Dole Plantation was busy but she made sure we got our Dole whip.

Awesome!!Awesome! Awesome!! This was the best and a great way to see the Islands without worry of renting/parking cars!!! The tour guide Kalanai, was amazing!! Thanks for making this service available ❤️

Kalani was absolutely amazing... knowledgeable and funny and so very helpful with the infant we had in our group...so many details I learned about Oahu! Anyone traveling with family and/or friends should take this tour! Beaches are out of this world gorgeous!

We did this tour as a couple who just wanted to see the island and this tour went above and beyond our expectations. Our guide, Kalani, was an experienced, funny, and overall great driver who took us to all the best spots in Oahu. This was our favorite thing we have done on our trip, I could not imagine coming to this island and NOT doing this tour. Starting the day with delicious malasadas, Kalani provides us with excellent service and knowledge about the history of the island. You HAVE to do this tour if you are coming to Oahu.

I would definitely recommend this tour to anyone visiting Oahu. Kalani made this tour more fun and educational. He went above and beyond for his guests and did it all happily! This is a full day packed with lots of stops.

My cousin and I had a great time on this tour. This was her first time in Hawaii but I have been many times so I can confidently say that this is one of the best island tours that I have been on. We got to eat malasadas at our first location at Haunama Bay. From there we went to Halona Blowhole and saw the amazing views from Nu’uanu Pali before the clouds came in. Then we went to Byodo Temple located in Valley of the Temples Memorial Park and rang the bell for good luck before heading towards the North Shore for lunch. We saw Chinaman’s Hat along the way. The Dole Plantation is a place I must visit every time I go to Hawaii just for the Dole Whip! We also got to visit King Kamehameha’s statue in Downtown Honolulu. But it was our tour guide/driver that made this trip around Oahu better than some of the tours I’ve experienced. Kalani was incredibly knowledgeable about the sites we visited and many other sites. His lived experiences made us feel the appreciation and connection he has for the island. He also made sure we were comfortable throughout the entire day. Our tour was on mother’s day so we are grateful for the time he could’ve spent with his mother, showing us around the island.

Glad I took a risk and booked this tour. It was worth the money spent. Lola our tour guide/shuttle driver was very pleasant and very knowledgeable. Even brought us Poi donut as a treat. I would highly recommend this tour.

Kevin made the entire trip outstanding. He was funny, on time, very knowledgeable, even though I've been to north shore before, this was the first time I felt like it was not only fun but informative. He was very accommodating. I am telling my friends and family to put this on their list . Thanks Uncle Kevin!!

This was an outstanding tour and I learned a lot about the Hawaiian culture from the guide. He was funny and just one of the nicest persons I have met.

This was an amazing overview of the island and the tour guide was fun and informative. Would recommend.

Sam was our tour guide and did a great job. It was the perfect balance between plenty to do and downtime. We did the falls and then paddle boarding up the river, where we saw sea turtles. The entire day was perfect. I would highly recommend it.

Beautiful day and we hit so many places in a day. William is also an amazing guide. 9 hours tour is filled with information, history and banters. You won’t get to see all the places if you are driving by yourself.

WE HAD A GREA TIME ON THE TOUR AND A GREAT TOUR GUIDE.

The tour was great! Our driver was very informative and attentive and we enjoyed it. He made us feel like we experienced hawaiian culture through his eyes. We saw a lot of beautiful sights and will definitely do it again.

This was an amazing tour!! Our your guide Lola was great. She was friendly, understanding and knowledgeable. Beyond the sights we saw she was able to give us a glimpse into the real Oahu. She had great tips for our lunch stop and made sure we got the most out of our tour. This tour would be great for families, couples single travelers really announce that wants to see the island in comfort. The tour pickup spot was close to our hotel so that made it easy for us.

Initially we planned to rent a car and explore the island from Waikiki, driving to different areas multiple days. But, corona (and Hawaii reopening) caused a shortage on rental cars apparently and so we were not able to rent a car after all. Then we found this tour and we couldn’t be any happier with it! It not only allowed us to see the island of Oahu, we also got all the extra information that we wouldn’t have gotten without Lola, our driver and tour guide. We stopped at the blowhole, the Pali of Nu’uana viewpoint, a macadamia plantation, the valley of temples, Haleiwa, dole plantation, and passed the north shore beaches and many other beautiful sights, also Honolulu. After the team we even regret more than we couldn’t go again and spend some time at the places suggested by Lola. Therefore, my recommendation is to do this tour first (at the beginning of your vacation) and then try to go to the places you liked the most. And Lola was just hands down the best tour guide. She brought water and Poi Donuts —> delicious!! And she was so energetic in telling us all the stories about the island and what she used to do or used to go as a kid. This whole experience felt more like connecting to Oahu than anything else we did during our time there. Highly recommended!

Wow! I am so impressed by this tour. When my family originally planned this, I thought it would be boring. However, I was blown away. Our tour guide, Lola, was SO amazing. She was so knowledgeable and personable. I am shocked at how much I learned from her. She made the day go by so fast- I wasn’t even ready to leave. She even brought us Poi donuts. It was so cool to eat from the local restaurants- I never would have ventured to do this on my own.
This is a must! Don’t even hesitate. It’s worth every penny.

Had a wonderful time w uncle Kevin!! He showed us a lot of places and haves the background story! Very knowledgeable and happy to share his experience and love for his Hawaiian culture.

Last year, during our honeymoon trip to Hawaii, we participated in this tour. With guidance from a Japanese university student studying abroad, we explored the vast grounds and engaged in activities, allowing us to directly experience Polynesian culture. My husband was also able to join a dance event along the way, and it was truly enjoyable.

昨年新婚旅行でハワイに行った際にこちらのツアーに参加しました。
留学中の日本人大学生ガイドさんによるご案内で広大な園内を散策しながらアクティビティーに参加し直にポリネシア文化に触れる事が出来ました。
旦那も途中でダンスイベントに参加することが出来て本当に楽しかった。

We had the best day! Travis is an outstanding tour guide with extensive knowledge of the local area. His genuine aim to please made this tour of the island the highlight of our visit to Oahu. We would highly recommend this tour and Travis.

Uncle Kevin was truely an amazing bus driver/tour guide! Made the day feel as though you were a local :). Amazing commentary and local facts. A whole range of activities to choose from and by far was the best taking a surf lesson on the north shore!

There was a Japanese guide, and we were able to tour the facilities smoothly. However, there is something disappointing. We were made to have lunch at 1 PM, and dinner was at 4 PM. We were not informed about this in advance...

日本人の案内人がいて、スムーズに施設を見学することができました。
しかし、残念な事があります。13時に昼食を取らされて、夕食は16時にされてしまいました。そんなことは、事前に知らせていませんでしたが…

It was great. Very informative and professional tour guide. They were filming the movie Jumanji while we were at the falls.
