Amazing tour with Uncle Kevin! - Our tour with uncle Kevin was absolutely amazing! We learned so much about the island, stopped at some local spots, did some amazing snorkeling at sharks cove, and saw many sea turtles before shopping around the north shore. I would highly recommend this tour we had an amazing time!

- I was so happy to join the Circle Island tour. From 7 AM to 5 PM, the views were absolutely beautiful. Our driver Cousin G was very responsible and kept the whole trip lively with humorous explanations about the island’s history, as well as its various plants and animals. There was never a dull moment! Our whole family had a great time.

Best Way to see North Shore - This was the way to do the North Shore. We got to pick activities with the tour and could take our time. Our tour guide Sam was awesome we hit some traffic issues but he made up for it and made the experience so pleasant.

Packed with interesting stops - Great way to see the island of Oahu. I wish we could have stayed longer at a few spots. Waimea Falls was my favorite and of course Dole plantation.
