Great tour. Be aware that lunch is not included in the price

Our Driver/Guide Garfield would have to be one of the best ever. There didn't appear to be anything or anyone he didn't know and his sense of humour was great. The three of us really enjoyed this tour. Really enjoyed his explanation as to their alphabet and how to pronounce their words so now the Hawaiian words are not so unpronouncable anymore. Also loved his telling about Hawaiian beliefs. Having grown up in the 1960s seeing Waimua Bay, Pipeline and Sunset Beach was wonderful. Same thing with the beach where From Here to Eternity was filmed and the blowhole as well. Would I do this tour again? You bet if Garfield was the driver/guide.

Amazing trip around Oahu. I sat on the right side of the bus and got to see ALL of the amazing sights. The stops along the way are breathtaking! The Dole Planation was the least impressive but our driver, Peikalo, made the tour very enjoyable. I learned tons about Hawaiian history and culture, which I loved.

This is the best way to know about the Island, we took the tour the next day we arrived to Oahu, and never regreted, was a wise decision, from that we could select where to go as a day trip..... Mr. and Mrs Santana

We really enjoyed the tour of the island. It was a full day and covered most of the non-city highlights of the area. We only had one spare day in Oahu and this was the perfect way to spend it. Our operator was very friendly and knew the history and facts about the sites we visited. We also had a quick visit to a Macadamia store and Coffe shop - which we really enjoyed. The highlight was the Japanese temple near the mountains - fantastic. I would highly recommend the tour.
