    THE GOOD: The tour selection/stops are a great way to see the island of Oahu. Our guide was a native of Oahu so he was very familiar with the history of the island and had been a driver for the tour company for 8 years. THE NOT SO GOOD Because we had so much to see at times you felt very rushed. Numerous other tour companies were at the same stops at the same time so there were too many people. Several stops only had 2 bathroom stalls for 30+ women so you missed the tour lecture by the owners of the property if you needed to go to the bathroom. It took 30+ minutes to stand in line for the Shave Ice stop as so many other tours were doing the same thing. This needs to be fixed.Either the vendors provide better service or the tour company will remove them. We as passengers would not know what we missed.

    Driver was super knowledgeable and a very safe driver. We learned a lot about the island of Oahu. His great sense of humor added to the trip! All of the stops were very interesting, just wished that we could’ve stayed a bit longer at each place. Lunch was delicious and the perfect amount of time to stop. We had plenty of time to eat and refresh. Dole Plantation was one of the much anticipated stops but it was very rushed, as it was quite busy. Overall, the excursion was very enjoyable!

    This is a long tour but so worth it. Even though it’s long, we wanted more time to tour certain areas. It started with a Portuguese donut from Leonard’s (very popular and tasty!). Each stop was great and we were ahead of most others tours which is great because it allowed us time to enjoy each location. The driver was funny and very versed with the Hawaiian culture. This is a must tour if you don’t have a car!
