Had an amazing time on this tour. Learned a lot about the culture, visited a lot of places, and ate a lot of good food :) Really enjoyed my time, even riding solo! Thanks Aina for a great day!!

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.

Justin was amazing! We had a wonderful time despite the unfortunate pouring rain, thunder and lightning, and flash flood alerts. He was so knowledgeable, shared so much information that wouldn't typically be apart of a tour, and his love of the islands is tangible. He was attentive and enthusiastic. We were entertained and felt safe the entire time.
