Getting out of town - Nice way to see the sites and hike up diamond head. Tour guide was very knowledgeable. We made an unscheduled stop to look at sea turtles which was a cool bonus.

See Oahu in a Day - Stephanie was a fantastic tour guide. She was kind, knowledgeable and being a local shared some great bonus spots! Would highly recommend this tour for seeing what the island has to offer. My teenagers weren't bored...and that alone speaks volumes about the tour!

A good early morning hike. - It isn't long, but is steep. Nice views. Medium difficulty, but very well maintained. Eroded but little loose rock. Glad we went in the morning as it gets hot quickly. It would be a difficult trail in the rain

Unforgettable experience... - Unforgettable experience seeing all the highlights of east and north shores. Several stops to delicious hawaiian foods and treats. Jonah was extremely friendly and gave wonderful tips all throughout the journey.

Perfect way to spend the day! - Great way to start the day-beautiful sunrise views from Diamondhead. There were crowds of people, and being with TripAdvisor made it easy from the drop-off to start, to the pick-up after! We loved all the stops around the island! Our guide was awesome, and allowed the group to choose how long we stayed. We enjoyed the food and stunning views!

Amazing round trip island tour! - Was awesome! Great way to squeeze in diamond head hike without paying for separate transportation. Stephanie our guide was awesome! Was easy going and took us to many stops not on the itinerary. We were never rushed for photos, got lots of good recommendations and just got to see a lot in one day. Would recommend to anyone doing the island tour and wanting a smaller more personal group experience.

A full day of taking in the sights - We had a wonderful overview trip around the island of Oahu with Stephanie. Starting with the hike up Diamond Head and then to the beautiful shoreline and beaches there was so much to take in. The stops at scenic outlooks and places to browse was nice in between the driving. Lots of insight into history of Hawaii and to any of the questions we had.

Slow “hike” - but great day otherwise! - Tour was good, and Stephanie was great! FYI: The early morning Diamond Head “hike” quickly becomes a slow saunter up the hill as it is full of tourists who want to stop and take pictures in the dark most of the way up. Be prepared to take your time and be patient if you are a regular hiker or want to get up there quickly to see the sunrise. Otherwise it was a great day checking out other beautiful areas of the island!

Be aware of time, travel and physical requirements - Overall, this is a good touristy excursion. However, I will say that this does not fully describe the schedule and day so you can decide accordingly. Yes it is 11 hours. Yes you see a lot of touristy spots. The tour guide is nice and knowledgeable but it is ALOT of time in the car. They basically drive you around to buy things after Diamond Head. That is not tour guided either, they drive you and drop you off. The views are incredible but be aware of the physical requirements for this hike. We had no idea what the schedule was until we asked after the hike then was provided the agenda. Ill post the picture so you can see. Plan ahead if you get car sick and know you will be driving in the car MOST of the day. It’s basically go from spot to spot to buy things after the hike. There are some beach spots for pics which is nice but overall, I’m not sure I would do this again.
