Kelly is a fun and incredibly personable guide. He educates his guests about the Honolulu area and current events. This is a great 3-4 hour tour that we highly recommend to everyone. Definitely give this a try if you available time in your schedule.
Our tour guide was fun and informative. We highly recommend Kelly; he took us to some beautiful places and we have great pictures and memories.
Book this tour…it’s top notch! Kelly is super knowledgeable about the area and has a wealth of history & local information to share. You get to explore so many different parts of the city that you would likely never otherwise come across on your own. He even builds in fun snack stops to try unique fruit in China Town and a delicious uniquely-Hawaiian doughnut, too. So much fun and well worth the money. I’d suggest doing this early in your trip so you have more knowledge of downtown and can also take advantage of some of Kelly’s local dining recommendations while you’re in town.
Very nice tour and Kelly is very good at what he does and what he teaches you or Honolulu
My teen daughter and I did the Historical Honolulu Bike Tour and we loved it! The tour was a great way to get oriented to Honolulu and see parts of the city we would have otherwise missed. We enjoyed hearing about the history if the island, tasting local produce, and seeing the important sites. Kelly was a fantastic guide who knows the island very well.
Mahalo for your review. Kelly has a strong passion for his job, sharing the past, present, and future with guests. Bike Tour Hawaii looks forward to leading you again in your future vacation experiences. Aloha from Paradise.
Kelly was super knowledgeable about the area, current and its history. It was obvious that Kelly had a passion for his customers safety and enjoyment during the entire trip. He was positive and funny throughout the journey. I would strongly recommend this tour with Kelly!
(Thank You)= Mahalo for your review. After 45 years of living throughout the Hawaiian Islands, Kelly has found his place in the vacation experience industry. Guests like yourself make every day an amazing experience, leading bike and e-bike tours here in paradise. We look forward to your next Hawaiian vacation.
Really enjoyed my bike tour with Kelly! He took me through parts of the city that I hadn’t seen, including a fruit market in Chinatown. I learned so much about life on the island and its unique culture, as well as the history you would expect on a city tour. The pace was casual and time was built in to really absorb the environment. The aspect that I most appreciated on this tour is the way Kelly facilitated engagement with locals that we encountered on the street, from Kevin, a friendly man who was feeding fish at a pond to e-cyclists en route to work. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone who thinks that the best way to discover a city and its residents is on a bike! Mahalo, Kelly!
Trip was worth the price. Kelly was a knowledgeable and friendly leader. We saw many sights and enjoyed the exercise. Recommend it anyone who likes to bike and learn.
We hit it all on bikes … 13+ miles around Waikiki, downtown Honolulu, the Palace, State Capital, Chinatown, port, marinas, newly gentrified areas, water front parks, …. And more! We had yummy donuts made of taro - he had lots to share!
10 points. Kelly is a very personable guide. I highly recommend him as he is head and shoulders above his competition who try to imitate his services but fall far short. I will not go into detail as they try to clone him. If you want the best go with Kelly. Ignore the clones.
