All Hawaii Tours & Activities

We joined the North Shore, Turtle Watch, Dole, and Macadamia Nut Farm tour, Stephanie was our guide and she kinda did things her way. It was nice she gave us several options to stop at beaches that weren’t necessarily ... moreon the list and she gave us suggestions on the food trucks to try at the old Sugar Plantation. But it was also a bit awkward when she will just talk about random things to fill the dead air, for instance she pointed out every passing McDonalds, Cheesecake Factory which I’m pretty sure isn’t particularly useful info to learn about Honolulu or the Hawaiian culture. But that’s neither here or there, the disappointment came to the Turtle Watch part, we just skipped it, she took us to the beaches where we’re supposed to find them, slowly drove and asked we saw anything (as the van was moving) then proceeded to concluded that there were probably none. After driving for at least another mile of the same slow drive and deduction, she asked if any of us was interested in going back to the first place where we thought there was something due to the crowds surrounding something and taking pictures, we didn’t saw anything yet, then she said if we did we would have to walk back one mile by ourselves, as traffic was bad and she wasn’t about to turn back.

Frankly, we joined the tour for the turtle Watch. To be just brushed off like that was disappointing and we felt a bit scammed,

Dan was the best. He took care of us. He is knowledgeable about the area and extremely friendly. I highly recommend this tour.

Very good tour. Ran short on time CD and did not get to visit Air Museum on Ford Island. maybe next tine

I loved this tour. The bus took us around the island, visiting ALL the hot spots. It can feel a bit rushed but lots of places to go. I think it’s suitable as a first day of your trip activity. Our guide Kanamu was amazin... moreg, I loved all the local histories and traditions she told us along the way. The highlight of the trip is definitely Waimea Falls. We spent 1.5 hours here, I personally highly suggest not to go swim in the waterfall because that would become the whole focus of this place. It’s such a beautiful area, you’d be rushing through the short hike trying to get to the waterfall, and once you’ve done swimming you’d be rushing back to your bus. You’d be missing a lot of this beautiful place. I also loved that we stopped for a short 30 minutes Dole plantation. That’s really enough tbh. I would otherwise not have come here but now I can say that I have been there. I loved the fruit stands that we passed, bought some fruits. If you’ve had good sugar cane before don’t buy them here, they weren’t that great. While taste great, they weren’t very juicy, and quite hard to chew. You can definitely try if you’ve never had them before. Bought some macadamia honey at the “nut house”, and I loved the macadamia nut sampling. I was so tired at the end of the trip but definitely worth it!

Everything was great with not problems at all. It was easy to purchase online and have the tickets on my phone.

The only tour I booked on my solo trip and got the most out of the water related activities in the span of less than a day. Totally worth it to book and also get lunch included with the tour. Learned so much about res... morepecting the reef, team focused sandbar volleyball and the joy of watching the turtles swimming.
