BOOK A PRIVATE ISLAND TOUR! - If they gave me the ability to give 50 stars that still wouldn't be enough. I can't say enough about this tour! It was literally perfect. First, we with didn't feel like we were on a tour. Yanni instantly made us feel like we were old friends visiting him in Hawaii for some sight seeing. He was the nicest, chillest guy. He was good with the little ones and so knowledgeable about Honolulu and Oahu in general. He knew every place to hit and genuinely gave helpful facts about all areas. He knew ALL of the vendors by name and they seemed to genuinely love him too. I think that translated into how they treated us because everyone was warm and inviting. They gave us freebies and were genuinely nice to talk to as well. He took us to where the locals go and everything was beautiful and delicious. He even convinced my little one to swim (with a life vest) into a waterfall and heck, he convinced me too. He even held a Gekko so everyone could see it, get pictures and get comfortable with the wild life. While we were tasting rum, he took the little ones out to play catch, improvising by using a lime. Every part of the tour left us with memories for life and we had so much fun. WE WILL BE DOING IT WHEN WE COME BACK!

One of my best birthdays ever! - My sister and brother-in-law and I went on a birthday/anniversary celebration tour with Auntie Kelly. It was absolutely amazing. While I knew our basic itinerary, Kelly added some surprises and everything was so fun and enjoyable. I loved not having to drive and being able to enjoy the scenery which was epic. Auntie Kelly knows all the best locations and enjoys sharing them as well as her knowledge of history and native Hawaiian culture. I can’t recommend her and this company enough.

Hi5 Private Tour - It was a celebration of my sister's birthday and our anniversary, so we did the tour together. We did a private Northshore food tour, and it was fantastic. We all enjoyed everything on the tour and especially the visit to Waimea botanical garden and we ended up with the KoHana distillery. This was the highlight of the tour! I had also asked about making some changes and they were diligent in checking out the requested changes (one place was closed and other place did not allow outside tours). So, I was happy that they did follow up. So, we were very happy (especially after the rum tasting!

The ultimate family day on Oahu - Our tour with High5 was one of our favorite days of our trip to Oahu. We were able to see so many sights, support small businesses, and get to experience parts of the island we may have never seen otherwise!! From beginning to end the day was filled with activities that engaged our entire group. We will definitely be booking another tour when we return to Oahu.

Amazing Tour! - Hi5 Tours Hawaii LLC was by far the best part of our week in Oahu! We booked a private island tour with them since we were traveling with 4 small kids and Ryan made the day so wonderful! So patient with all 9 of us! Ryan was extremely knowledgeable of the area and such fun to be around! Highly recommend this company for anyone who is wanting to see multiple parts of the island without having to rent a car and worrying about directions! So much bang for your buck!

A fantastic family tour experience - An outstanding day that was tailored to fit all our families requests. From picturesque views, waterfalls, swimming, turtle viewing and amazing food opportunities we managed to fit it all in (along with a great music playlist to accompany us in the van with). Would definitely recommend Hi5?Tours in Hawaii.

Amazing experience, highly recommend! - My best friend and I were planning our recent trip to Oahu and we came across Hi5 Tours. We weren't familiar with the area and wanted to see some spots away that only locals would know. From booking to drop-off, everything was seamless and so easy! We would highly recommend Yanni and his company and will definitely book on any future trips. Yanni is extremely kind, generous and just all around a great human being. He is very engaging with every one on the tour and within minutes you feel as if you are with a lifelong friend. We did the full-day tour which started with the Botanical Gardens/Waterfall then off for the yummy food trucks!! Get the pineapple shrimp, it does not disappoint! After we ate too much we went to a beautiful almost private beach spot and did some seashell and sea glass hunting then it was off to the rum distillery. Everything was timed perfectly and Yanni is so knowledgable. If you are thinking about a trip to Oahu, you cannot miss a chance to hang with Yanni, it was a wonderful experience.

High School Trip from NY - What a trip. We spent 8 days traveling with Hi5 for a class trip from NY. As the lead teacher of my 15th class trip to Hawaii, this was one of the best. Our guide Kellyanne was very helpful and extremely knowledgeable about Hawaiian culture. The kids learned so much. Hikes were great, food stops wonderful, and experience unforgettable. I highly recommend this company. The owner Yani joined us for a day and provided great support. The kids loved both Yani and Kellyanne. We cannot wait to return next year. Mahalo nui loa!

Best Day Ever - We enjoyed a culinary and cultural adventure with Yanni! Our day started with deliciously warm malasadas and a delightful conversation about our interests and plans for the day. Yanni expertly guided our destinations and timing to avoid crowds and give us an experience rooted in local culture. He made a special effort to incorporate everyone in our group at all times despite our varied interests and personalities. He even got our teenager off his phone, which is a triumph! We cannot recommend this tour highly enough and would not want to tour Oahu any other way.
