What people are saying about Haleiwa

Kim was so sweet, full of knowledge and humor, and did an incredible job. This tour was a great use of our time (we only had 2.5 days in Oahu), and maximized our view of the island without having to rent a car. I felt like we spent the right amount of time everywhere, except we could have spent more time at the botanical gardens and less time at Dole (though I know people love Dole). Thank you for everything, Kim!

Our driver was amazing, he showed up promptly, and was very friendly and courteous. Despite rain and one of the planned sites being closed due to rain (causes potentially hazardous conditions) and mechanical issues, he remained calm and upbeat and taught us so much about Hawaii, history, the people, the food. I would highly recommend this tour. They will make sure your experience is one that lasts a lifetime!

Great way to see the island if you’re not renting a car or have limited availability to go see and do things. We got to see a lot of things I may have skipped otherwise! Guide was great at telling us stories along the way and answering questions.

Sierra took us some beautiful places and gave us a cultural education as well. So much we didn’t know! We enjoyed her company as well. She has a great sense of humor!. Thank you so much! Aloha!

Full day lots to see and hear about great lunch and plenty of places to get snacks or gifts
