Testimonials
“Uncle Tony was an amazing guide for the day. His personal stories, past experiences, and plentiful knowledge of the island really kept my attention. He really made you feel like you as well as everyone else was his true Ohana. He was a safe and conscientious driver. 10/10 would do again. All the stops listed were surely hit, they were breathtaking, and well worth the money.”
“Let me start by saying, John Jr is the absolute best tour guide I’be ever had. I honestly felt like he was one of my bros that I had chilled with my whole life. He was super nice, knowledgeable and a fantastic singer. When he busted out his ukulele, I knew we were in for a treat. We stopped at such wonderful spots and his intimate knowledge of the island made our tour success. Thanks, John Jr!”
“What an AMAZING tour! This was the best choice I made on this trip! We had the BEST guide, John Jr! He sang, he played his ukulele, he was funny & knew so much about the island. Couldn’t have asked for a better full tour of the island. My 2nd time here and but I actually saw so much I had never seen. This is a must for anyone, be a tourist for a day with this group! Unforgettable!”
“We are so glad we went with this smaller tour and group. There wasn’t any part of the tour we did not like. We met a bunch of great people. John Jr. was very entertaining. The donuts were great as well as where we stopped for lunch, the scenery, the nut farm. It was truly worth the money.”
“Uncle Tony was our tour guide/driver. I’ve done this circle island tour for the past four years. This was the best tour guide we had. A bus driver who plays the ukulele and provides delicious donuts and coffee at our first stop in the tour. And he called in our lunch order at Fumi’s so we didn’t have to wait for our food. Best tour I’ve had on the island.”
“Our guide Cousin Maiia was phenomenal and the stewardship of the land both by Our guide and Nico at the beach is a tribute to how much they care about their cousins enjoying the tour and ensuring the ocean is protected DO NOT MISS THIS TOUR YOU WILL REGRET IT!!!!!! If you only do one tour make sure that you go with this company mahalo nui loa ia ‘oe”
“For an inexpensive, easy way to see a good portion of the island, this was an amazing tour! Cousin Duke was a very knowledgeable and witty guide- it was awesome to learn so much about Hawaii from someone who knows it so well. I wish we had a little more time to spend at the Dole Plantation, but getting Dole Whip was still worthwhile. In all, a wonderful day with a great group!”

Diamond Head Lookout
Diamond Head Beach Lookout was a strategic military site during WWII, and a favorite surfing spot for locals. There’s always a wave to be surfed at this beach. The lookout provides a good view of this hotspot in the foothills of Diamond Head.
The Halona Blowhole
The blowhole is a natural occurrence formed by molten lava tubes from volcanic eruptions thousands of years ago. The lava tubes run to the ocean and, when the surf is right, the blowhole shoots water up to 30 feet in the air.
Secret Beach at Sherwood Forest
Waimanalo Bay is one place not to often visited by tourists, that has one of the Oahu Beaches that will leave you in awe of it’s shear beauty. The beach is surrounded by an Ironwood forest (that locals call “Sherwood Forest”). We are not allowed to stop here, but it’s so beautiful we’re gonna drive through so you can see where the forest meets the ocean.
Macadamia Nut Tropical Farm
Take a look back at the plantation days in Hawaiian history. Learn the life cycle of the nut from flower to harvest. Indulge in All You Can Eat Macadamia Nut Samples, grab a hot cup of Kona Coffee, and go outside to talk story with the Samoan Chiefs. You can even crack open your own Macadamia Nuts here.
Chinaman's Hat
Behold the legendary Chinaman’s Hat!
This awesome geological formation is located on one of the most beautiful parts of the island. This stop is one of our guests favorite locations to take pictures.
You would have a hard time finding a better beach to have a picnic!
Kahuku Shrimp at Fumi’s
The shrimp served at Fumi’s is never frozen and actually locally raised in ponds right on their property. Enjoy thier famous shrimp sautéed with butter and garlic, or tons of other options that don’t include seafood… But trust me… The Garlic Shrimp… Ono Grindz Cuz!
Sunset Beach on North Shore
Known for big wave surfing during the winter season, it is a site for surf competitions and home to the prestigious Vans Triple Crown of Surfing, which is part of the World Cup of Surfing. It also hosts the Pipe Masters and a stop on the WSL Championship Tour. We’re not allow to get out at this location, but when the surf is up you can see the waves from the bus.
Sea Turtle Beach (Alii Beach)
A beautiful spot for snorkeling. Large sea turtles (“Honu”) are often seen in the shallow waters here. The shore area is a combination of sand and rocky outcroppings, making the area perfect for snorkeling a seeing some of the local sea life. Enjoy this awesome snorkeling experience with our premium, full faced snorkeling equipment.

King Kamehameha Statue
Several Kamehameha Statues honor the monarch who founded the Kingdom of Hawaii. King Kamehameha is given credit with unifying the Hawaiian Island chains.
