Island Tour by Conroy - We booked an Island Tour and Conroy was our driver and guide. Conroy was brilliant. He contacted us prior to his arrival advising the car he was driving. He was extremely friendly and knowledgeable . We had a lovely lunch at the Shrimp stalls and our overall experience was one to remember. We had a 12 year old boy on the trip and he thoroughly enjoyed it as well, at first being sceptical. Thank you Conroy and Custom Island Tours.

Pricey, but good - Conroy did a very good job explaining things around the island and taking us everywhere we wanted to go. He was friendly and a great tour guide. The private tour is pricey, but we chose it because we stayed in Ko 'Olina and most of the cheaper tours would not pick up from there. If you're staying in Waikiki then I would probably go with a cheaper tour. It was very nice to have a tour just for us though, so if you can afford it then go private.

Knowledge, skill, and aloha spirit personified - Shawn was an amazing tour guide! He’s extraordinarily well-versed in the history of the islands and of Oahu and is engaging. He is willing to make adjustments to the schedule based on the interest of the person/ people he’s driving around. I really appreciate his humor and his aloha spirit.

Wonderful private tour! - For our family trip, I decided to book a private tour around the island since my brothers have not been to Oahu and we were celebrating our parents 50th Anniversary. What a treat it was. Conroy, who grew up on the island, was our tour guide so it was great to get the perspective from a local and learn more about the history and fun facts of Oahu. Conroy is also very personable so it felt like a friend was showing us around. He took us to a bunch of spots that I’ve never been to and I have been to the island several times. We were even able to see baby turtles swimming by the beach up in the North Shore! The food places he took us to were awesome as well- Leonard’s food truck for malasadas, Waiāhole poi factory for a taste of their kulolo (sweet poi), Tropical Farms for their macadamia nuts and coffee, Tanaka Kahuku shrimp for lunch, a fresh fruit stand where he treated us to banana lumpia and then finally to the Dole Plantation for Dole whip. Everything we had was delicious. We were so full and happy when he dropped us back to our hotel. Going on this private tour was well worth the money spent. Ask for Conroy! Thank you for making this trip memorable for me and my family.

Well worth the money. Very enjoyable tour! - Our driver JP was very knowledgeable and friendly. We really enjoyed being able to do the things we were most interested in. We went to a Japanese temple, rum tasting, Dole Plantation, authentic Hawaiian lunch, coffee groves, Ioloni Palace, Diamond Head etc. very nice tour. Worth the money.

Disappointing - The Custom Island tour of Oahu was very disappointing. Our tour guide JP was nice enough and drove the van safely , but he was NOT a guide. There was very little narrative throughout the drive about where we were going, what we would see there, the history of Oahu or the Hawaiian people themselves. Very little general knowledge information about Hawaii was shared at all.
Our travel companions felt we should have rented a car and downloaded a travel app to guide us around the Island. We spent a lot of money for a disappointing outing.
