Worth the money - The guide Aka has a beautiful voice. All the stories were amazing. Each stop has a story. I didn't enjoy Hawaiian food anywhere on the island.

Hawaii round island tour - The tour was so good
Tour leader Aka and driver Will were amazing.
Only one downside was the Dole pineapple plantation, I tried to buy alcohol I’m 53 with a full beard. I only had a photo of my ID and they wouldn’t take it and the staff were very rude.

Unforgettable experience - Best tour while in Oahu Island. You'll see the entire island in a day and if you're staying longer, you can go and visit on your own. I was visiting on my way to a cruise for a long layover and this tour showed me everything I wanted to see in a day. Aka is the sweetest guide! Everyone hugged him at the end, everything he talks a lot but it's because he's excited to share his culture and the beauty of Hawaii. Just bring some snorkeling equipment with you to the beach!!!! In the bus there's no point. Other than that, thank you for your hospitality. Love Hawaii after this tour! Mahalo Aka and driver! Bring a lot of cash btw, they stop in a lot of local vendors with yummy and the cutest stuff to shop. Unforgettable! See the next time!

Memories to cherish - Our tour guide Aka was the most knowledgeable, as well as entertaining and uplifting guide ever! His knowledge of culture, as well as his personal experiences, make him an excellent person to show off the sights and the rich history of the island. He made the tour a memorable experience for all. Our driver, Mr. Wang, was a very good driver. These men proudly represent your tour company.

Great tour Dole plantation and coffee farm aside - Our guide Aka was really passionate about his culture and sang to us, told us childhood and personal stories and entertained us non stop during his tour. Thank you for sharing your culture with us Aka! The Dole plantation and coffee farm were basically only a tourist trap and underwhelming, but the rest of the tour was cool!
