    For anyone visiting Oahu and wants to see the whole island and learn about the history and nature then this is the tour to be on! We have just returned from Hawaii and we have been the first visitors for over 2 years due to the pandemic and this is the first thing we booked. It was a long day (7.00am - 6.30pm) but worth every minute as we visited almost all the island stopping at some scenic photo spots and also managing to see a sea-turtle! Jo-Jo our host was fantastic and had a wealth of information and facts on all our stopping points. Great shrimp lunch included as well so would highly recommend for anyone visiting the island.

    Close your eyes and book your trip with them and no way you will be disappointed. We had a wonderful trip two days back and our Driver/guide KEN was not only jovial but very knowledgeable. The time we spent with him is pretty hard to forget, as he ensured all different nationalities in our group were individually attended. The various places he took us, he explained clearly be it cultural, beach or anything else. Keep going.

    If I could give 10 stars I absolutely would we used Oahu nature tours to go hike diamond head and our tour guide knocked it out of the park his name was Ken and I don’t think he could have been any better there were 4 people that didn’t arrive on time and he waited as long as he could which he didn’t have to do that was very awesome to see he was very funny and made everyone feel included on the trip adults and kids included he was very knowledgeable and he will take your picture if you need him to and he’s happy to do it amazing job Ken and Oahu Nature Tours for hiring such a talent!

    We took Ultimate Circle Island & Waimea Falls tour - basically a whole day around the island in April. Our tour guide was Jojo - he was a bless! He told us so many facts about history and nature of Oahu and Hawaii in general that we learned a lot and it was easier to relate to things in other days of our trip. Big appreciation to him!!! A whole tour was amazing - we saw a lot of thing - from the beaches with turtles to waterfall surrounded by botanical garden. We had amazing shrimp lunch and visited Dole with amazing pineapple ice options.

    It’s was a long day, but well worth it! Benny was our driver and he was outstanding. I don’t think I’ve ever seen a driver with such skills. Claudia was the tour guide and she was the sweetest. Very knowledgeable and kind. Bring water. Good walking shoes. Lots of sunscreen. Lunch can be messy, but it was still tasty.

    The guide, Jo Jo, nursing a broken leg from rock climbing, knew not just nature, but history, culture. He was exceptionally articulate, kind, and courteous. This trip was fantastic, with a free lunch, and a great value.

    Jo jo was amazing, he was really the highlight of the tour. We were excited for the tour although we had no idea it was 11 hours! The spots we stopped at that we really liked were very short, most of the time a bathroom break and a few photos, the temple was beautiful, the lunch was okay, shrimp is shrimp, it was hot the drinks were cold. We were really excited for the waterfall, but weren't told until we pulled up that it was a trickle or no water at all. It is what it is. I guess we should have done more research before hand, we didn't fill out anything at the end as we took an Uber from the dole place. I think if you go when the waterfall is a waterfall it's most definitely worth the cost, out of season not so much, oh well live and learn.

    The driver and the guide were amazing. Kanoaha was very knowledgeable and had a great personality. There was not one second that he did not have everyone engaged. I wish we did this tour our first day! I can not say enough good about the experience we had yesterday. Definitely recommend this tour and it's is worth every penny. The bus was immaculate, perfect amount of time at the stops, amazing narration and insight by our guide. 5 stars!

    We went on this tour today and it was really enjoyable.Our guide Paul,and Benny, the bus driver were so friendly. Paul was entertaining and knowledgeable in so many different areas,we learnt a lot about the history, culture, traditions and life of the Hawaiian people.The places we visited were so beautiful and we all thoroughly enjoyed the day.They pick up/ drop off near your hotel,bus was clean and tidy. Shrimp lunch,or as we call them-prawns ,were delicious. Great day out for the whole family away from the hustle and bustle of Waikiki. We saw a turtle,whales,and even a man walking a wild boar on a leash. Highly recommend this tour.

    Amazing educational tour in Oahu. The guide Kainoa and Captain Kim were very friendly and professional. Kainoa never stopped to explain everything about Hawaiian culture and history which was actually helpful to understand Hawaii. Captain Kim was considerate. Once he noticed any guest came back to the bus, he turned on the air conditioner right away. Office manager Cecilia was working hard as well. Keep checking my confirmation with email and message. Even made and sent me a map from my hotel to pick up point! About the content in this tour, I loved the shrimp and pineapple icecream. The waterfall valley was beautiful. It's less than 1 hour round trip, definitely recommend to walk.

    I recommend taking this tour as soon as you land on the island. I booked this tour for our second day in Hawaii. My family and I were picked up at our hotel right on time. As we went along and picked up other guests at their hotels, Paul, our guide, would point out interesting landmarks on the route. Paul is very friendly, entertaining, and passionate about sharing knowledge of flora and fauna of Hawaii. You can tell he LOVES his job. He kept us engaged and gave us great tips on places to visit, things to see and experience that this tour does not cover but you could do during the rest of your stay on the island. I also suggest you bring a notepad and pen to write down all the info Paul shares😂. Props to Mr. Kim, our driver, he did an awesome job driving us around. You can tell he has skills and proved them while driving in Waikik’s tight, traffic-filled streets, and he also kept our bus at the perfect temperature at all times which made the ride so much more enjoyable. We did stop at all the locations O’ahu Nature Tours advertises, plus a bonus one since all the guests got promptly back on the bus throughout the day and had some time to spare. Do not miss this tour if you come to Hawaii; it's worth it!

    Brandon was the star! If he wasn’t telling us all about everything, it wouldn’t have been near as fun. He was so well informed about everything Hawaii. Seriously everything. He literally talked to us for the entire trip. He had great recommendations on what to do and see and eat and also what not to do. Tour was well thought out. I’d call it a sampler platter of the island. Gives you a glimpse of most everything and a few more in depth stops. Highly recommended early in your visit so you can make time to revisit something you passed by in the tour. Also getting advice from a local on where to go is invaluable. Don’t do this on your last day in Hawaii. Thanks!!

  • 5/5 Jackie N. 5 months ago on Google
    Excellent experience! The bus was comfortable, Brandon our guide was so knowledgeable and friendly, Kim our driver so professional. I felt safe all day on the bus! Highly recommend this tour!

  • 5/5 Theresa U. 9 months ago on Google
    Loved this tour, I can’t imagine having a better driver or guide. Benny & Brandon knocked it out of the park. Extremely knowledgeable, qualified, efficient, and personable. We now have a deeper appreciation and understanding of Hawaiian culture.

  • 5/5 Shelley M. 6 months ago on Google
    Brandon was a wonderful tour guide. Knowledgeable and funny. We were very impressed with his knowledge of nature and history of the region. Highly recommended this tour and maybe you will be lucky enough to get Brandon. S. Mathis-Texas

    Our tour guide Paul was super interactive and had great facts, stories and jokes along the beautiful ride. We had plenty of time at each stop and even saved enough time to add on two bonus sights. Our driver Mr. June was a great driver.Overall, I could not recommend the ultimate circle island tour more!

  • 5/5 Charles C. 9 months ago on Google
    This was a great tour. You really get an overview of Oahu, with lots of context. All of the scenery is gorgeous, but a couple of stops were highlights: the Buddhist temple and the Waimea valley hike. Our guide Claudia was very knowledgeable and driver June did a great job.

  • 5/5 Elizabeth A. 8 months ago on Google
    Staff was very welcoming! Very informative and outgoing crew. Definitely recommend! (PS.. definitely recommend sitting on the right side of the bus as you get to see a better view of some of the drive by spots) Mahalo! 🤙

  • 5/5 Andrea M. 1 year ago on Google
    I loved everything about this tour, but mostly getting to meet JoJo, who is the kindest and most genuine person I've met in ages! Wouldn't hesitate to book this tour. Easy scheduling/pickup, great communication, beautiful sites across the island. 10/10!

  • 5/5 Peyton M. 1 year ago on Google
    Great place to start your vacation, will give you a good variety as a standalone trip, but also you will get good recommendations for eating and other places to explore along the way, as well as more historical information than you can handle. Greg was knowledgeable and passionate about the culture.

  • 5/5 Indira H. 2 years ago on Google
    Tour guide was very knowledgeable. Excellent day!

  • 4/5 Trisha F. 1 year ago on Google
    Great tour, was very informative. The stops we made were fairly great except for one. We went to the Waimea arboretum and was not told about the waterfall being dry until we pulled into the parking lot. A little notice the night before would have helped us plan better for what to pack/wear and expect for the day. It would have been nice to have less time there and more time at another stop as some stops felt rushed.

  • 5/5 Lisseth G. 5 years ago on Google
    We absolutely loved our tour and tour guide Levent. The tour itself was absolutely beautiful and a wonderful way to get an idea of where you would like to go back to during your stay in Oahu. Book ahead of time because tours get sold out. I learned the hard way. Levent is so ridiculously knowledgeable. He knew just about everything and then some. He taught us all about the history of Hawaii and I am not kidding when I say that I didn’t want my tour to end because I wanted to hear more. Money well spent. Mahalo!!!

    We went on the ultimate circle tour with Monique. It was fantastic. The itinerary is similar to other companies but I felt that our guide was particularly knowledgable about the ecology, culture, and geology of Hawaii. As a bonus, our lunch stop was super organized. Lunch was waiting for us and was super efficient. I almost felt bad for the folks from the other buses queueing up 10 minutes to get an order in. If you're genuinely interested in learning about the island, I couldn't recommend this tour more. If you are just interested in being driven around the island to take pretty pictures and eat dole whip... There are honestly a lot of cheaper tours. We had a blast!

  • 5/5 Roksolana K. 1 year ago on Google
    Great tour! Visited Oahu alone and this tour made it possible to check all the main attractions! Views, guides, pictures and memories are amazing!!! Long enough stops and delicious shrimp lunch! Highly recommend! Thank you!

  • 5/5 Jill W. 1 year ago on Google
    We had an awesome tour of Oahu with Oahu Nature Tours! Our guide, Jo Jo was very knowledgeable about the island, the history, the folklore, the plants and animals of the island, and he was incredibly entertaining! The lunch was great. There were shopping opportunities for those who wanted to purchase items including at a farmers market with locally made products. We would highly recommend this tour!

  • 5/5 Raymond L. 3 years ago on Google
    Monic hosted an awesome guide!! VERY valuable, and fun tour~

  • 5/5 Arjun D. 2 years ago on Google
    I highly recommend the Ultimate Circle Island With Waimea Waterfall tour with Oahu Nature Tours. The tour operator and tour are superb. My only recommendation is that the time allocated towards Halona Blowhole and Nu’uanu Pali be increased from 20 minutes to 25 or 30 minutes each which will allow for more time at these superb sites, which offer stunning views and great photo opportunities. Otherwise, it feels somewhat rushed. The time allocated for other sites is adequate.

  • 5/5 Craig D. 2 years ago on Google
    Excellent tour. Our guide, Greg, was fantastic! Highly recommended for anyone interested in the ultimate circle island tour with walk to the Waimea waterfall.

  • 5/5 michael t. 2 years ago on Google
    Through no fault of the tour operator my family plans changed and I needed to cancel my reservation. The communication leading up to my cancellation couldn't have been better. They answered the phone each time with professionalism and answered all my questions fully. When it came to cancelling they continued to impress me. I received my refund immediately with no fuss or hassle. I look forward to rebooking my tour later this year and I wouldn't even think about calling another company. Thank you for your kindness and professionalism!!!

  • 5/5 Gianna A. 2 years ago on Google
    My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed the Ultimate Circle Island Adventure with Waimea Waterfall. Our tour guide, Emma, was friendly and incredibly knowledge. She not only gave us information about each of the stops, but also shared fun facts about the Hawaii and Hawaiian culture throughout the entire tour. Our bus driver, Hiro, was also great and drove us safely the whole day. The tour itself was fantastic! We got to visit so many of Oahu’s top spots, which was exactly what I wanted. We definitely got to see way more (and learn way more) on this tour than we would’ve if we toured the island on our own. I highly recommend this tour!
