5.00My husband and I went on this trip during our honeymoon. We had Miah and let me tell you. His energy was AMAZING. Not only does he have a respectable background and cool past filled with adventure but his love for history and his home really shows. And as a history teacher myself I was genuinely appreciative. He makes you feel like family, teaches you so much and truly made sure everyone was comfortable. Water. Bathrooms. He would take pictures for us and even for my husband and I a honeymoon gift. So sweet. The journey was long but didn’t feel like it because his jokes and amazing knowledge filled any down time getting to the next location. He was fabulous. I can’t wait to come back and take my family and request Miah because h was so engaging and fun and just knew so much. He truly embodies the aloha culture
Do yourself a favour and book this tour! I promise you'll love it as much as I did, maybe even more! :)

5.00This was the best Oahu Island Tour ever! Genuinely. I was able to see everything I wanted and some more! Our host, Summer, was extremely charismatic and knowledgeable about the history of each stop. It was such an amazing experience– I couldn't have asked for a more perfect day. Thank you again Summer! 😊
Most excellent guide and tour

5.00I have traveled extensively, and I don’t ever write reviews. The tour was a great way to see the island with not much effort. But our guide, Summer, made the tour into a most excellent experience! Summer’s details and preparation made sure every stop was the best possible opportunity for all of us, and gave the best instructions to make sure we actually had that best experience. Just do it.
Loved everything we saw.

5.00We had the best time on the Oahu Grand Circle Tour! We extended our vacation 2 more days after a 7 day cruise. Summer did an amazing job from singing happy birthday to my Mom for her milestone 80th birthday to providing us such great history. If in Honolulu, this tour is a MUST!
