If you're looking for real history on the island of Oahu and prefer a small group, Aina Kane of Aina tours is the perfect match.

We had an awesome experience on this tour. Justin was great at telling us all about the sights we were seeing and sharing stories of the island. Sadly, due to the floods we weren't able to go snorkeling, but he made up for it with extra time at some spots and a couple of extra stops as well. Be prepared to eat, too, as several of the stops involved local treats, making it almost a foodie tour! All the food we ate was excellent, especially the shrimp truck. Highly recommend taking this tour. It does leave early but it's worth getting up for, plus we were ahead of some of the larger tour busses so the stops weren't crowded.

Aina was a serious blessing on our first trip to the island. I had some issues booking (I am not tech savvy lol!) and got in contact with him for immediate response and solution. Wow. Breakfast was a 10/10 and lunch was amazing. I am a history nerd and got the perfect mix of education and fun on this tour. I couldn’t recommend a more perfect experience for anyone seeking a tour on Oahu. Support local Hawaiians and tour with Aina!

This tour is a must do if you are planning to visit Hawaii! This company is top notch with making sure everything is organized and done in a timely manner. Justin was my tour guide and he shared a wealth of Hawaiian history and kept us entertained with jokes. The stops were all good and we were able to beat the crowds. I highly recommend!

The tour was great! If you wanna go around the island with cool stops, activities, and food stops. Though, it sucked that there was a bad storm when we arrived. So, we super appreciated that we had our session rescheduled for our safety. The day we went was definitely the best day during our trip. Unfortunately the aftermath of the store prevented a couple places/activities that we weren't able to do/go to. But the amount of care and knowledge Aina has as a native is very in-depth and it shows how much love he has for the island. Our group had so much fun and a TON of laughs! Totally recommend!!

This tour was well organized, fun, and really packed a lot into the day while still feeling relaxed and not rushed. I learned a lot on this tour. Aina was funny and personable and really made the tour great in addition to all the fun stuff we got to do. I highly recommend this company and this tour while you visit Oahu.

We had Justin as our driver and guide. He is funny, friendly and very knowlegeable. This is an excellent tour to enable you to see many interesting and iconic sights of this beautiful island paradise. We enjoyed shrimps, snorkelling whilst marvelling at the beauty of an amazing and informative tour. Thoroughly recommend.
