Earl's Heartfelt Oahu Tour - Native Hawaiin, Earl, was the perfect tour guide. He showed us the most scenic and non-touristy off beat places to eat, explore, and take many photos all around the island. Not only did he show us, but he shared his extensive knowledge about the people, landscape, trees, and Pearl Harbor. Some of the very personal, heartfelt things he shared were so touching. I'll never forget. He was also very good about dealing with my daughter's peanut allergy when she couldn't eat at one of the local stops. Thanks Earl! You're the best!

Private Oahu tour - It was a wonderful trip with our driver James. Born and raised in Oahu be was able to not only tell us about the rich history of Oahu but show us, We got to experience the food the locals eat while he told us what it all was. James went above and beyond throughout our day with him. We would highly recommend him to anyone looking to tour Oahu!
