What To Expect

Diamond Head Beach Park

Our first point of interest takes us to beautiful Diamond Head Lookout, where you will be able to catch the end of the sunrise. The surf is almost always up at Diamond Head beach, so you can watch the surfers and see other Hawaiian Islands on a clear Day. Please understand that this stop is not the Diamond Head State Monument that is inside of the crater. Another name for this location is the Amelia Earhart Lookout.

Kahala

After the Diamond Head Lookout, our second point of interest is the Gold Coast in Kahala. This area is like the Beverly Hills of Hawaii. You will see unbelievably large and luxurious properties and expansive estates that are owned by movie stars, celebrities, dignitaries, entrepreneurs, and of course doctors and lawyers. Definitely an interesting sight to take in.

Halona Blowhole

After we pass through Kahala, one of the most interesting points along our journey around Oahu is the powerful Halona Blowhole. Come and marvel at this geologic wonder as it shoots water into the heavens. As the waves crash into the rocks, the water moves underneath the rocks from underwater caves. Then the pressure builds up and it shoots the water as high as you can see. One of Oahu's geologic wonders!

Eternity Beach

Situated Near the blowhole in an incredibly beautiful corner of Oahu is a secret beach made famous in the movie "From Here to Eternity." This little cove is extraordinary, and one of our hidden gems. If you have some extra time while here on vacation, we recommend that you come back to spend the day... It's just about the most relaxing place on the planet!

Sandy Beach Park

After the Blowhole and Eternity Beach, we'll come upon the body boarding, body surfing, skim boarding, and broken neck capital of the world... Sandy Beach. A famous hangout for locals, and just amazing playground, Sandy Beach is the perfect place to watch the experts play with expert waves... It's also a convenient bathroom stop for our tour!

Makapu'u Point

After we are pau with Sandy Beach, we will continue our journey and round the Eastern Corner of the Island of Oahu. As we do, you will get a glimpse at one of the most awe-inspiring views that you will ever see. The vista from the Makapu'u Point lookout is truly something to behold... The Bluest of Blues, the Greenest of Greens, ancient jagged lava rock surrounding yellow sand, and the Makapu'u lighthouse sitting stoic in the background. Someone pinch me...

Waimanalo Beach

After we round the corner of the Eastern tip of Oahu, we will come upon the quaint town of Waimanalo... There's London, Paris, Tokyo... And then there's Waimanalo... The exact opposite! It is here where we will find a beach park that is consistently ranked as one of the top beaches in the world. Also dubbed Sherwood Forest, what makes this beach so spectacular is the vast amount of Ironwood Trees that grow far out onto the beach in the sand. This creates a view of the forest meeting the ocean in spectacular fashion. Hands down the best camping spot on the island. Due to regulations, we can't get off the bus here, but we're gonna pull in just so you can see it from the bus.

Mokoli’i Island

Behold the legendary Mokoli'i Island! This picturesque island off the coast of Kaneohe Bay is a volcanic formation that is about as iconic with the Island of Oahu as Diamond Head. Mokoliʻi translates from Hawaiian as "little lizard." According to Hawaiian mythology, the island is the remains of a giant lizard's or dragon's tail that was chopped off and tossed into the ocean by the goddess Hiʻiaka. Definitely a picture that you need to have stored on your data card.

Tropical Farms (The Macadamia Nut Farm Outlet)

After passing through Sherwood Forest Park, it's time to go to one our most popular stops... Why is it so popular? Free (all you can eat) Macadamia Nuts and Free (all you can drink) Kona Coffee of course! But it doesn't stop there, this is a bonafide macadamia nut plantation where you can crack open your own mac nuts, drink cold coconut juice right out of the coconut, mingle with Samoan Chiefs, and find that perfect, unique gift to bring home with you. This is always one of our guests favorite stops. *Note: Please leave a donation if you hit the coffee and nuts pretty hard. =)

Laie Hawaii Temple

After we have our fill over at the Macadamia Nut Plantation, it's time to get back on the road. The next stop we'll make is over to the amazingly beautiful Temple of the Church of Latter Day Saints in Laie, on the North Shore of Oahu. This city has a thriving Mormon community, and is home to one of the campuses of Brigham Young University, BYU Hawaii. This building is an amazing site to see because it's very architecturally significant. We won't be able to go inside, but we'll drive by so you can appreciate the view.

Kahuku Farms

Mango, Pineapple, Coconut, Breadfruit, Dragon Fruit, Egg Fruit, Lilikoi, Honey Dew, Cantaloupe, Papaya, Apple Bananas, Ice Cream Bananas, Kiwis, Lychee, Rambutan, Sapote, Chi Chi, Jack Fruit... I could go on, but I think I would run out of character limit. The amazing Kahuku Land Fruit Stand has it all... Every fruit that you've ever heard of, and definitely every fruit that you've never heard off. Enjoy interacting with local farmers and tasting tropical fruits at this fun location.

Kahuku

Okay cousins... Now it's time to Grind! We've had a very busy morning and everyone has worked up quite an appetite.Don't worry, we've got you covered with succulent Kahuku shrimp. Garlic, Spicy, Lemon, Original... The famous Shrimp Trucks have it all! Kahuku, Hawaii is known to some of the most productive shrimp farms in Hawaii. These premium shrimp are exported all over the world, but now is your change to eat them at there freshest. Non-seafood options too. *Note: The cost of lunch is not included in the price of the tour.

Haleiwa

We have now nourished our bodies, regained our energy stores, and it's time to make our way out through Haleiwa to go to our snorkeling site. But, along the way there, we will pass through the quaint surfing town of Haleiwa, the most famous city on the North Shore. Home to hundreds of restaurants, surf shops, arts and craft stores, and harbors, Haleiwa is one of the most original and unique towns in America... Much less Hawaii. Enjoy the sites of the town as we make our way to the Sea Turtle Snorkeling site at Haleiwa Alii Beach.

Haleiwa Alii Beach Park

We have now come upon the highlight of our 16 Point Oahu Circle Island Tour... It's time to go snorkeling with the Sea Turtles. These curious creatures are docile and overwhelmingly cute. They spend their days hunting seaweed crops that are growing on the rocks and coral out here at this beautiful beach known as Alii Beach in Haleiwa. We will be providing all of the mask, snorkels, life jackets, lifeguards, and safety instruction that you need to have a super fun, super safe time. It's official... You've arrived... You're on Vacation, and this amazing snorkeling spot is the proof!

Dole Plantation

There's hardly any place more associated with Hawaii than the Dole Pineapple Plantation in Wahiawa, Oahu. It's also one of our guests favorite stops, and a fantastic way to begin to wrap up this adventurous day. Dole Plantation offers a wide variety of unique gifts and refreshments including fresh pineapple, and DoleWhip ice cream. This is a great spot to watch the Dole Train, grab some things to bring home, or send as gifts.

Green World Coffee Farms

Whoooo Whoooo.... The train is now pulling out of the station at the Dole Plantation... And we're headed to our last stop right down the road.... The Green World Coffee Farms. As you can guess by the name, Green World grows boutique coffee and has many coffee trees growing on the property so you can get a look up close. They also have a great coffee shop so you can fuel up for the journey back to Waikiki. It's been a long day, and it's no coincidence that our last point of interest happens to be a spot where you'll find piping hot caffeine on tap. We hope you've enjoyed reading about our wonderful island experience and warmly invite you to come join us for an exciting day that you will never forget!

I would have given this experience a 5 star but all to our tourist guide and driver, Johnny. The start up was a frustrating experience due to a long wait for pick up. We were at the place of pick up 20 minutes prior but we were picked up alter almost an hour wait. The agency was the hardest to contact as it goes to a voicemail that’s full. We didn’t even get a courtesy call why there was a delay which was that the original van broke down,. Nevertheless, early frustration was offset with a superb tourist guide! Kudos to Johnny.

We took this tour bus on Oct 31st, 2021. The tour guy's name is Jason and the driver's name i think is Randy. First of all, the bus picked us ontime at 8:00am. After the bus took off 5 minutes, Jason received a call who wanted them to pick up other 2 passengers. The bus went aroung 3 circles to pick up these 2 people, we were 45 minutes late to start the trip. In stead of taking us to this beautiful beach with snorkling per tour's photo and description online (see the nice photo they advertized below), Jason told us " We are going to take you to another beach near by to avoid the traffic on the way back". So they took us to this very very super dirty beach. Not mention to snorkling, we could not even put our feet down in the water that's how dirty it is as you can see the 2 photos we posted below. Secondly, they supposed to take us to the coffee farm and MacNut farm but they did not! They took us to this small MacNut store acrossed the street of this dirty beach. I asked Jason aren't we suppose to go to the coffee farm? He said: To advoid traffic back. This shop is the same you can buy coffee"... The tour guy and the driver only look for their convenience to go back home earlier, not care about us.! We wasted our money and mostly our time to join this "beautiful beach with snorkling tour", but it was a very dirty beach! It is totally unfair to us!!! We would like to know if the tour company could come up with some compensate for this trip for us? Sincerely, Amy & Casey

I rarely write bad reviews but this tour is really mediocre. I think my expectations were different due to this inaccurate dis rip toon of the tour. First of all, this tour doesn’t pick you up if you are staying on the west side of the island. Only Waikiki area. They should be more clear. They dont confirm until within 24hrs so if something doesn’t work out for you, like our pick up - you can’t cancel since it’s within 24hrs. We ended up taking a Uber back and forth which was additional 100 dollars. Then the tour advertised going to diamond head and secret falls and beaches… we drove by diamond head.. we were shown the residential street that will ultimately lead to diamond head… no history or anything lol… we stopped by a scenic look out where you can’t see the diamond head or the light house.. I was so confused. There are a lot of point out for the celebrity homes which I’m not a fan of. Just personal preference, I’d rather learn about the island and it’s history than seeing rich people houses.. Last thing I was surprised was all the shopping stops we had… we were dropped off at a few shops to “buy” things, which is really a waste of time and stuff are not cheap. Reminded me of those Chinese tours that makes you buy things at certain stores because they take a cut out of it. Highlight of this tour would be they provided snorkel equipment if you need for 30 mins of snorkeling. Didn’t see much though. Also we were constantly stopping for food as well, which we did try a few local eats so that was good. We also stopped by at dole Plantation to grab ice cream. Enough time if you don’t care for the plantation tour or the Pineapple Express(but we had a toddler so we have to come back for the train later). Lastly, Our tour guide was very nice and funny.
