Great tour, definitely recommend

Published on Dec, 2024

Tyler was an extremely knowledgeable guide. He was very accommodating stopping for photos often and taking our picture for us There was only 4 of us on the tour, so he was able to provide personable attention. He took us to a great lunch place, made bathroom stops as necessary, provided ice cold water and made several great suggestions.

Best excursion to see whole island

Published on Dec, 2024

Spectacular day! There were only 4 of us so it was a very personal tour. Our driver was very knowledgeable and provided a lot of information. My goal this trip to Oahu was to see Byodo-in Temple and found very few options to get there from the ship pier. This excursion typically picks up at Waikiki hotels but made an exception to come to the pier because of a quiet day, I guess. We really did a whole Oahu circle loop. Diamond Head, Halona Blow Hole, Byodo-In Temple, Macademia Nut Farm, Dole Pineapple ranch, best and most popular food truck for lunch on the north shore, quaint town of Haleiwa for shopping. Because we were just a few people, our driver asked us our wishes and timing. Sunset Beach was to be a drive by, but because it is my favorite beach and we had time, he allowed us a few minutes there (don’t count on this tho). Spectacular day!

Will recommend

Published on Nov, 2024

Me and wife came to Hawaii to for the first time to celebrate our honeymoon. We were extremely grateful to have Tyler as our tour guide. He made the long journey a very fun one to say the least. He pointed out so many cool facts about the islands and trees. We would definitely recommend to book with Tyler!!
