Unforgettable Photo Tour! - Our guide Mac (like the computer, but without the money! 😅) was an amazing guide—fun, thoughtful, and super engaging. He tailored the tour to our group’s interests, took beautiful photos of everyone, shared local traditions with Aloha, and even treated us to a sweet snack. Highly recommended for anyone who loves photography and authentic experiences!

Highly recommend Sunrise tour - Fabulous day, best day of our time in Honolulu. The amazing Kurt was our tour guide and we learnt loads about photography with his help. The day was very full and very relaxed, Kurt happily adapted to our needs (we had 2 children aged 4 and 6) and we all had a really great day. I would highly recommend the tour

A great way to experience Oahu and get some stunning photos - An absolutely fantastic day. From the pick-up (at 0500, to go see the sunrise) until drop-off around 1600, our guide Kurt was informative, engaging, and entertaining. He took us to a wide variety of amazing locations, and gave us the benefit of his experience in getting the best photos. I saw some amazing sights, learned a lot, and have a lot of great memories as well as some memorable pictures. Cannot recommend highly enough!

Absolutely amazing! - We went on a photography/tour of the island and it was amazing. Our tour guide Kurt was an absolute blast. He told us so much information about Hawaii and the culture.

OPT rules! - Absolutely fantastic experience with Oahu Photography Tours last week! My husband and I joined the Complete Island Adventure with Sunrise, and our guide, Kurt Stevens, was exceptional. The variety of stops allowed us to capture the island's beauty from different angles, and Kurt's excellent photography tips (he’s a professional photographer - check out his IG account: @kurtstevensphotography) significantly improved our iPhone photography skills. Later in the week, we had another excellent tour (Beautiful Colors of Hawaii Photo Tour) - this time with Mac Strickland as our guide. Mac brought the perfect blend of humor and local color that made the experience even more enjoyable. He skillfully navigated the busy weekend traffic, allowing us to maximize our time at each stop. The cherry on top was receiving airdropped photos shot by our tour guides at the end of each tour—such a thoughtful touch! Highly recommend this tour for anyone looking to explore Oahu while enhancing their photography! Five stars! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

We had a small group but that’s what I really liked about. I felt like with the small group, we all got to know each other well, we just laughed and had a great time! Thanks again Emily for a great day!
