• 4Great tour but could be a bit longer

  Overall a great excursion and Sy our guide kept everyone informed and entertained throughout. Some fantastic views and most of the scenic stops were of the right amount of time. Healthy portion of lunch as well at the shrimp shack. Feel that the tour should be longer though by about an hour. Two of the stops (the macadamia nut and dole pineapple plantation) only give a short amount of tine and are purely there for you to spend the time in their respective shops. I get it that it is an overview and you can go back to make separate visits and whilst there is not much to see at the nut farm, but at the pineapple plantation there was not enough time to really go and see the plantation itself and do the train ride express tour (20 min ride) to learn more about the plantation itself, so not many are likely to make a separate visit just for that so for the sake of adding that little bit extra time would then make this a 5 star experience.

• 5Great tour, excellent guide, awful bus

  This was a great tour. Our driver and tour guide, Si, was excellent. We learned so much about the history of Hawaii and he shared many personal insights about life in this beautiful state. But the bus was awful and should be replaced. Duct tape on the ceiling, bad shocks, and a dirty interior. PLEASE give visitors a nice vehicle to travel in for 8 hours!

• 2Disappointment in Oahu Circle Island Sights & Bites Tour

  We were excited about seeing many of the top island attractions on this tour during our short stay on Oahu. While we did drive by a lot of beautiful beaches and stopped at several, the overall experience was mediocre and very rushed. The guide seemed helpful and pleasant at first, but she got frustrated at the people in the back of the bus that were carrying on very loud conversations. She told them over the loud speaker that she was not going to talk over them, then threw her headset onto the dashboard. She did this several times over the course of the morning. Eventually they quieted down a bit. Lunch was very disorganized at a crowded roadside stand. The guide told us a few directions, but then she disappeared for at least 15 minutes without giving anyone a heads up that our food wasn't ready. The group was left wondering where she was and where we could find her. We were also very dissappointed that the stop at the Dole Pineapple plantation was very short, only allowing time to purchase a Dole Whip and shop in the store. My husband and I had skipped other options to take a pineapple plantation tour and were under the impression this stop was a full tour. I have to wonder if the guide shortened the itinerary or if it was set up to be this way. If we could do the day over again, we would not go on this tour.

• 5Excellent Sights and Bites Circle Island Tour

  We enjoyed the Sights and Bites Circle Island Tour. Our guide was very knowledgeable, friendly and very helpful. We learnt a lot about the history of Oahu and had several stops with beautiful coastal views as well as one stop to see the turtles. Lunch was included in the tour at a shrimp shack. I chose the tempura option which came with 5 large and delicious shrimps. Overall, good value for money and we obtained a 20% discount on this tour before tax as we bought two tours from the company.

About Honolulu

Honolulu is Hawaii's capital on the south shore of Oahu, with Waikiki Beach, Diamond Head crater, a royal palace and the Pearl Harbor memorial nearby.

Honolulu spreads along Oahu's south coast between the mountains and the sea. Waikiki Beach is the famous curve of sand, with surf lessons and outrigger canoes, and the green Diamond Head crater at its eastern end is a short hike to a summit with ocean views. In downtown Honolulu, ʻIolani Palace was the home of Hawaii's monarchs and is the only royal palace on American soil, and a gilded King Kamehameha statue stands across the road.
