Off-the-Beaten-Path on Oahu Private Tour

Overview

If you like to avoid the crowds and visit unique, authentic places, this is the tour for you. We will delight in sharing with you our favorite secret spots on Oahu, including secluded beaches and tide pools, a tucked-away arboretum in the shadow of the Ko`olau mountains, the ruins of an ancient Native Hawaiian temple, and/or a working farm where you can partake of the fruits and vegetables it produces, depending on your interests. Along the way, we can shop for locally made crafts and artwork, dine on uniquely Hawaiian cuisine, and visit vantage points from which to take in unforgettable views.

Your Certified Hawaii Professional Tour Guide will suggest places to stop but YOU will decide where to do so, according to your preferences. We look forward to hosting you with all the Hookipa (customer service) you deserve, and the Aloha of Hawaii!

Amazing Day in Oahu! Personalized Hawaii Tour provided a wonderful tour of the island. Noani was professional, knowledgeable, and made the day go by so fast. We didn't want it to end. We saw all the places that other tours went to plus more! I would HIGHLY recommend this tour to everyone! So funny, our friends booked a similar tour the day before through Viator and the operator canceled at the last minute. Our Tour was on time and the Best! Call Tina and schedule this tour. Especially, if you are on a cruise and military. We even stopped at the Navy Exchange! Get out there!

Although Antonio was knowledgeable we were expecting to be able to customize our itenarary as per the description. I presented Antonio with a list of places we wanted to see and stop at but he had his own agenda and itenarary and we were left not visiting the things we really wanted to see but rather all the touristy hotspots instead.

Aloha Cindy Thank you for your review. We tried to reach you by phone and we did not get a response. We were hoping to talk with you to get your feedback on the tour. It it very important for us to understand what may have transpired on the tour so that we could address them. It seems like there was a misunderstanding that this tour is customizable. It is not a completely customizable tour; it is more that we take into consideration our guests' preferences, i.e., historical and cultural, or nature, scenic, beaches, etc. and then we "customize" our existing tour, based on those references - if they have any. Since it is a private tour, it does give us the flexibility to adjust. We spoke with Antonio and we know that he made recommendations and may have included some "touristy" places. But we also know that he did take you to some off the beaten place locations. He told us that you had a list of places you wanted to see and the list was comprised of places that were all over the island. Visiting the entire island on the tour is not possible due to the distances and the traffic. As a result, some of the places you may have wanted to see, we could not get to. Antonio mentioned that you enjoyed the places that you did get to visit. Had we known in advance that you had a list of places that you wanted to see, we could have worked together to try to get them on the tour as best as possible. We thank you again for reaching out to share your experience and your feedback is helpful to us. With warm aloha, PHV
