Crappy business ethics.
Looking forward to this tour all vacation just to have it cancelled the night before for lack of enough paying customers. Would NOT put your trust in them. Recommend renting a car and saving some money and headache.

Fun but very long day
Very long day but lots of good stuff packed into one trip. Because it’s a large bus, have to wait for everyone to come back and most people don’t know how to come back on time. So waited a lot for everyone to get back to the bus. Also did not stop at 2 of the stops on the itinerary.

Do your research before booking your island tour
Although you get a tour of the island, there were too many stops and too little information about the island. Many stops were just money making opportunities, and other stops deserved more time and explanation. Our guide was too interested in selling the materialistic side of the island. Some people like us have travelled a long way to be here (UK), and learned nothing

Awesome Trip!
This excursion was awesome! It’s an all day affair with plenty of stops. Dylan & driver were excellent. Stories were told thru out the bus ride! I highly recommend this trip!

Great day out to see the island
A long day but great to get a flavour of the island. Great driver and guide. Less time at the coffee plantation and more on the beach with the turtles Great video made during the trip
C
Great tour, recommend if you have an entire day to learn about the Island
This tour is approximately 11 hours, but worth it! Our tour guide and driver were amazing. It was worth every penny. Be ready to spend the entire day learning about Oahu. The bus was comfortable, there are plenty of stops along the way to use the restrooms, buy souvenirs, take pictures, relax on the beach and plenty of food and drinks along the way, but in addition, the tour provides waters and a bag of chips so bring a few snacks if you need them.

Prince was very...
Prince was very knowledgeable and informative. He made the trip a pleasure and carefree. It was a great day.

It was a gift shop tour
We see most attractions from inside the bus and the only beach we went to is a beach inside a resort. But what I disliked the most was that half of the tour is just stopping at gift shops. It was a 2/10 for me.

C
