With an app that functions as your guide, audio tour, and map all in one, explore Oahu and the vibrant city of Honolulu that offers a little bit of everything, from lush greenery to the most stunning beaches in the world. Cruise around this tropical paradise, hike its best trails, and learn about its incredible conflict-strewn history, all from the comfort of your own vehicle. As an added perk, enjoy animated videos allowing you to visualize what you cannot see, such as snapshots from different centuries or interior rooms, along many of the tour stops. After downloading the tour app (download instructions sent via email after booking), start your Oahu adventure at the Pearl Harbor National Memorial where you’ll begin to learn about the unexpected history of Honolulu. Next is Aloha Tower, one of the city’s most iconic attractions. Continuing on, see Iolani Palace, the extravagant former home of Hawaii’s monarchs, as well as a statue of King Kamehameha the Great. The first beach on the Oahu tour is Ala Moana Beach, a pristine stretch of sand that was once used for something else entirely. Then, visit Waikiki Beach, where surfing superstar Duke Kanahamoku got his start before he transformed the world of surfing forever. Leaving the beaches for a moment, get an up-close look at Diamond Head State Park, an enormous volcanic crater and Hawaii’s most popular park. Head toward the volcanic China Walls next, where you’ll hear the dramatic tale of Kamehameha’s rise to power and his rival, Kalanikūpule, who was willing to do the unspeakable to take control for himself. At the Hanauma Bay Lookout, find some of the most spectacular views; be sure to have your camera at the ready. For a less crowded spot, follow the route to the next lookout, which most visitors miss. After passing some seriously scenic shoreline, spot Rabbit Island just off the coast and learn about the utterly failed rabbit farm that once operated here. Then come to Waimānalo Beach, the perfect stop for anyone seeking a little seclusion. As you approach the town of Kailua, hear a dramatic account of the Battle of Nu’uanu. If you’re a kayaker, you won’t want to miss Kailua’s beach. Up next, catch a glimpse of the last remaining Heiau on Oahu. These ancient temples were deeply sacred to the Hawaiians and still hold a great deal of significance today. Find a trail to one of Oahu’s famous waterfalls. If you’re craving more nature, the Ho’omaluhia Botanical Garden will be just ahead, offering a staggering 400 acres of carefully cultivated flora. You might not expect a huge Buddhist temple in Hawaii, but that’s the next stop! After checking out the Byodo-In Temple, reach the Kualoa Ranch that’s become a Hollywood favorite. Wildlife enthusiasts will love what comes next: a huge wildlife refuge and Turtle Beach, frequented by the enormous Hawaiian green sea turtles. Then, head to Sunset Beach, the perfect spot to catch the day’s final rays of light. Later, head to the historic Dole Plantation, where the tour concludes.

Everything was easy as far as booking and arriving. easy to find, not too much traffic, not too much walking. my mother loved the activities before the show. making our own lei bracelets, making music, and learning some of the instruments. lots of good photo ops. the tattoo thing smeared a bit so maybe they can use something. less smeary. show was great. food was def not the star of the show. salad was soggy. appetizers were ok but food costs must be tight cuz 2 tiny pieces of poke is weird to look at in a tiny sauce container. def understand if budget is tight and going to the entertainment cuz the food left us hungry and we went out to eat after.

Overall great experience. Does take about 5-6 hours so I would eat a big breakfast before heading to the meeting spot. There’s also other cool stuff at the museum you can buy tickets for like a submarine. I recommend watching the short film before the ferry to the Pearl Harbor site..

Great day! Our guide, MC Finny, was entertaining and informative. Pearl Harbour is a must see and this tour is a great way to do that. Well organized and perfect time frame to visit the site without being rushed.

Out tour guide Nani Popolo was excellent, informative and has a great sense of humor! I am ex military and the tour was concise and so spot on, I believe it is a must for all people to see!

Was very easy and smooth. Driver was very informative and the tour went as planned and was an enjoyable afternoon.
