Justin was such a great guide. He was super informative about the history of the island and answered many silly questions we had and fully went along with the joking too. Super professional and we had a great time!! Thanks Justin for a great day!!!

Circle Island Tour
We were picked up in a van that was comforatable for those in the front and middle but not for those in the back/last row. The speed bumps in some areas seem to be made to cause kidney damage. Ryan was an knowledgeable and funny tour guide. The overlooks we saw in the early part of the tour were great. While they did not provide any water, they did provide lunch at a local restaurant on the northern part of the island and the meal was good. The afternoon was visiting working farms but I would have preferred to see and learn more of the operations at the Dole and the cocoa/coffee farm rather than just stop at their stores to shop for trinkets.
We did enjoy the tour and as it was mostly retired military, we didn't have the normal issues of people not being where they needed to be on time. The company did cover all the tickets and lunch as part of the fees, so while it was it was $160 per person, given the cost of everything, I do not think it was overly expensive and was worth doing and I would do it again with them.

Aloha, thank you for taking the time to share your detailed feedback! We’re glad to hear you enjoyed your day with Ryan and found him knowledgeable and entertaining.
Our vans operate with a maximum of 13 guests per tour so we can remain a small-group experience, which we believe provides a more personal and enjoyable way to explore the island. Some areas around Oahu have larger speed bumps, potholes, and rougher road conditions, and our guides do their best to avoid these whenever possible.
We also appreciate your feedback regarding the afternoon portion of the tour. The second half of the day is designed to provide a mix of experiences, including scenic stops at Kualoa Regional Park and Turtle Beach, along with a visit to Dole Plantation. While some of these locations have shops for guests to explore, they are just one part of the overall experience.
We truly appreciate your feedback and, most importantly, are glad you enjoyed the tour, felt it was worth the price, and would choose to tour with us again.

Circle Island Tour w/ Turtle Beach, Wed 0916/2026
Our guide did excellent job and we love him . The ticket price of $168 per person is pricy . I hope more stops can be added to the trip
事業者からの返答
Aloha, thank you so much for your review! We’re thrilled to hear you loved your guide.
We appreciate your feedback regarding the price and number of stops. With 10 stops around the island, a small-group limited to just 13 guests, hotel pickup and drop-off, Byodo-In Temple admission, lunch, and snorkel gear all included, we work hard to provide a full-day experience with great value and as few additional costs as possible.
We appreciate you choosing HPA and hope to welcome you back again on your next visit to Oahu!

Excellent service
My husband, Kok Liang, and I had an absolutely fantastic time on our recent tour with Hawaii Pacific Adventures!Justin picked us up from the Outrigger Reef Waikiki Beach Resort at 6:30 AM with a huge smile and amazing energy. From that moment until we finished at 1:30 PM, he was warm, welcoming, and incredibly knowledgeable. He shared wonderful, deeply informative insights about Pearl Harbor's history—offering unique stories, local perspectives, and lesser-known historical details that you simply cannot find in a history textbook. He also taught us so much about Hawaii's beaches, local food, fruits, and volcanoes like Diamond Head.What truly set Justin apart was how he effortlessly connected all 13 tour members on our bus. It’s clear he loves his job, and he exceeded all of our expectations. Thank you, Justin, for an unforgettable trip!

A great island overview
This was a great way to get an overview of the island when we had only 2 days to visit. Roberto was right on time, kind, fun and knowledgeable! We enjoyed our time with him tremendously! The van was small if you are a large person-but exceptionally clean and air conditioned. We had 10 people and enjoyed getting to know each other!The only reason for four stars instead of five is that the beach stop was a bit uncomfortable-it was part of a hotel and we didn’t know we weren’t allowed to use any of the chairs-we were given snorkeling equipment, but it was impossible to snorkel at that beach-no visibility and it would have been unsafe to move out further-Roberto had dropped us off for that one experience-so we had no one to clarify questions/concerns with. Still a lovely day and perfect for what we needed-if we had more time it helped us clarify future places we would visit..

Mahalo, Catherine, for taking the time to leave your review!
We intentionally operate our tours in Ford Transit or Mercedes Sprinter vans with 14 seats, while capping each tour at just 13 guests to provide a little extra room and a more personal experience. Keeping our groups small also allows us to visit more locations throughout the day and gives guests more opportunities to interact with their guide.
Oahu was recently impacted by two hurricanes back-to-back, which has unfortunately affected water clarity along the entire North Shore. At the moment, visibility is not nearly as clear as it normally is. The beach we visited was selected because it currently has some of the best available conditions in the area.
We truly appreciate you joining us and hope to welcome you back again when the ocean conditions are clearer and you can experience the North Shore at its best. Mahalo!
