An unforgettable and stress free tour of the island! - Ryan did a fantastic job taking our family around Oahu as only a local can. We swam next to Waimea Falls, ate at local food trucks, kayaked with sea turtles all at our own pace to accommodate a 4 and 6 year old. My girls loved sitting on the paddle board as they searched for turtles with Ryan. Thanks for giving us an unforgettable experience on the island!

Amazing Private Tour – Even on a Rainy Day! - We booked a full-day private tour with Hi5 Tours Hawaii during our vacation, and it was absolutely worth it. Even though the day ended up being mostly rainy, our guide completely turned it around and made it one of the highlights of our trip.
He knew exactly where to go and how to adjust the day to the weather. He showed us beautiful scenery, some pretty secret beaches, and we were lucky enough to see a few sea turtles. He even surprised us with fresh flower leis and brought us some of the most amazing malasadas—such a thoughtful touch!
We also stopped at an awesome food truck area and tried multiple spots—every single thing was delicious, and the shaved ice was hands-down the best we’ve ever had.
What really stood out was how great he was with our seven-year-old daughter. He was patient, engaging, and made sure she had just as much fun as we did. You could tell he genuinely loves what he does and knows the island inside and out.
Even with the rain, he made the day the absolute best it could be. If you’re considering a private tour on Oahu, Hi5 Tours Hawaii is the way to go. We would 100% book again! 🌺🌴

Great Private Circle Island Tour on Oahu! - We enjoyed a fantastic private island tour on Saturday November 1st. Pick up at our hotel was on time with warm Malasadas waiting for us! After getting to know us a bit, JK planned out a day packed with various excursions including several beaches to take a swim in and some to view the powerful waves the north shore is known for, a coffee and chocolate experience, food truck lunch (excellent pizza!) and even a rum tasting! This 8 hour tour for the 4 of us was very comparable in price to a group tour yet every stop was specific to what we were interested in doing. Thanks JK for sharing your Hawaiian/Oahu knowledge with us along the way.

Private Island Perfection: Relaxed, Fun, and Full of Aloha - Our family had an incredible experience on our private island tour with Ryan. His “tour guide magic” really showed throughout the day — nothing was too much trouble. Whether it was holding a coffee, helping us collect souvenir pins, or recommending the perfect spot for lunch, Ryan was always one step ahead and made everything effortless.
As a family with two young kids (3 & 7), we knew a group tour would feel too rushed, but this private experience was absolutely perfect. We could explore at our own pace and truly take in the island’s beauty. Ryan and the team are fantastic advocates for Hawaii — their passion for the island and its culture shines through in everything they do.
From start to finish, the whole process was seamless. We can’t recommend this experience highly enough. It was the perfect way to see Hawaii!

Amazing tour - We had a fabulous private tour with Ryan today. My family with two young boys absolutely loved our experience. We had some hikes beach in time shopping, but we loved his input and island history the most. Thank you for making our vacation memorable!

The Best Day of Our Trip, Thanks to JK - What an unbelievable experience! JK and Kia picked us up at our hotel at 830AM and the rest was history JK was incredibly knowledgeable, gracious, and funny, and he brought the whole day to life and made every stop feel special.
We started at a coffee farm where we learned the process and enjoyed some of the freshest coffee you’ll ever taste. Lunch was at local food trucks, and honestly, it was some of the best food I’ve ever had. The day just kept getting better: beautiful private beaches where sea turtles were swimming, moments of complete serenity, and the kind of views you only dream about. We even cooled off with the perfect shaved ice, which hit the spot after all the exploring.
Every detail was thoughtful, the pace was relaxed, and JK made sure the whole experience was both fun and memorable. It was a wonderful day from start to finish. Highly recommend!

Private tour with Aunty Kelly - Aunt Kelly was our private tour guide and she became part of our family. She is very knowledgeable, fun and kind. She took us to a few of our bucket list places that we can now check off. Aunty Kelly made our tour the very best and we can’t wait to go on another tour with her. She is the very best!

BEST DAY EVER! - Our experience with Hi5 Tours was absolutely unforgettable! From start to finish, every detail was thoughtfully planned, and you can truly feel how much they care about sharing the beauty of the island with every guest. They were not only knowledgeable but also so warm, fun, and welcoming. It felt like spending the day with family who happen to know all the best hidden gems.
We were able to see breathtaking sights, learn so much about the history and culture, and experience Hawai’i in such a personal and meaningful way. They went above and beyond to make sure everyone in our family, including our kids, had a magical experience. The entire day was filled with beautiful views, laughter, and memories we’ll remember forever. My 4 and 7 year old still talk about this day and can’t wait to go back to explore more!
I can’t recommend Hi5 Hawai’i Tours enough — if you’re looking for a tour that feels personal, genuine, and full of ohana, this is it. Thank you for making our trip so special!
