What To Expect

Oahu

This unique, 8.5-hour photo tour begins in Waikiki with a hotel pickup in a spacious, air-conditioned van. The sunrise tour departs from the hotel an hour before the sun comes up, then a drive to a spectacular beach for a breathtaking view of the sun at dawn as it appears on the horizon with splashing waves and tide pools. After sunrise we stop for a quick breakfast and continue our tour stopping at numerous locations around the entire island of Oahu. Learn how to use light, and discover what framing, shutter speed, focal points and other important topics mean to composing a great image. Then explore the best places — and find the best angles — in which to take pictures on this breathtaking island. It’s the best of both worlds: a tour with an experienced local guide who shares their knowledge of the Hawaiian history and culture and a mini photo lesson with some of the most beautiful scenery in the world for a postcard-perfect sunrise. Along the way, learn about Hawaii’s history, its wildlife and the geography from the naturalist guide who is not only an expert in photography, but also a Hawaii insider with an in-depth knowledge of the island of Oahu. This photography tour is suitable for all skill levels — from beginners to advanced shooters, using everything from smartphones to high-end DSLR cameras. At the end of the tour, walk away with some incredible sunrise images, an abundance of professional photography tips that will last a lifetime and an appreciation of Oahu’s rich history and culture. This photography tour ends with a hotel drop-off in Waikiki.

My daughter and I had a wonderful time on this tour! The sunrise was magnificent and Jim helped us get the best pictures! I have been taking pictures for years and he gave me some great advice and my daughter has just started and he helped her get excited about what she can do with her camera! I have so many beautiful pictures I dont know which ones to blow up so I can hang them in my house. He also took us to some amazing places we would never have seen by ourselves!! I will take this tour again if I ever go back! Awesome!

Our group only had 5 people total. Marie was a great tour guide and teacher. She was very knowledgable about locations and Hawaiian history. We never would have known about several locations we stopped at had we tried to shoot on our own. My husband is a pro shooter and even he was impressed with the day. I learned several things about my camera that day, making my photos much better. The pace was very good and we never got bored. We would definitely do this again!

My sunrise and island tour with Bonnie was such an amazing and memorable experience. She was so knowledgeable about Hawaiian culture, picturesque spots, and photo tips for my SLR and iPhone. Her enthusiasm was the best part - she is so energetic and fun and really made the tour personal for what our group wanted. I also loved the small size of the group - only 4 of us! We really got to know each other well and I feel like I have some new friends for life. I will definitely book another tour with Blue Hawaii and will try to get Bonnie again. You should too! Such great value and the best souvenirs you’ll ever get. :) Thank you!

Aloha Jennifer, Thank you for your nice review. Yes...Bonnie is a very popular guide. I love to hear you made new friends on the tour. This happens on many of our tours...this is why we keep the tours small. No more than 7 people in a large 12 passenger van. See you next time. A Hui Hou Marie
