Anniversary trip…. - Daniel’s Hawaiian tour is the best! I highly recommend their services. My husband and I booked the private tour. Heather was our tour guide and she made this the absolute best tour we have ever had!!! She is so friendly and knowledgeable and will make sure you have the ultimate Hawaiian experience. If you book with Daniel’s, please do yourself a favor and request Heather. You won’t regret it!!!

Great Day With Heather and Daniel’s Hawaii! - This was our second tour with Daniel’s Hawaii on this trip to Oahu. Heather took us on a fun and relaxing tour of the island and tailored it to our specific requests. She managed to keep the interest of our three teens, one of whom said that the tour was her favourite part of our visit! Heather was thoughtful, kind, fun, and interesting, and shared her Hawaii with us. We felt more like we were being shown around by an old friend than a tour director! We will definitely be back for more tours with Daniel’s Hawaii! Mahalo nui loa, Heather!

Great way to see the island - This was a nice tour and a great way to see the island. The tour guide had a wide range of knowledge about the various areas we visited, and I liked the way he wove in stories about what it was like growing up on the island.

Matthew is the best tour guide! - Our family of 3 was visiting Honolulu for our daughter's March break and we signed up for the small group Circle Island Tour. This tour exceeded all our expectations because of our tour guide Matthew! Matthew was extremely knowledgeable, friendly, and funny! He gave us so much history around the island and plenty of time to take photos, sample food, and enjoy the sights and scenery. This was the highlight of our trip. If you only do one tour during your visit to Honolulu, this one is a MUST! Thank you Matthew!

Excellent Tour with fantastic guide - We had a tour just for 2 and it was an excellent experience Nazir (hope the spelling is right) was a charming and very informative tour guide. Excellent lunch at Tanaka Shrimp Truck. Many great stops, just the turtles at turtle beach preferred to stay in the water.

A great way to explore the island - A fun day with Christine, our tour guide. The stops are more ideal for us as it didn't just take us to the tourist hot spots. Length of tour was just right.
