    Wow! Could not imagine having had a better day touring Oahu! We had 6 months to research and plan and Adam was great communicating and making suggestions, and Ron-our guide was fantastic! We saw all of the sites on my plan and a few that Ron suggested- he seemed to know someone everywhere we stopped! Not easy making a control freak Dad, his wife, 3 kids, sister, and mother in law all happy for 8 hours but he did! One example- My 15-year old musically talented daughter mentioned the ukulele and Ron, who plays and collects them, managed to arrange a quick, impromptu stop to pick out her first ukulele while we were eating at a nearby shrimp truck. I super duper highly recommend Adam’s tour company without reservation!!!!

    Absolutely loved doing a Circle Island tour with Private Tours Hawaii. We were a small group (6 people) so didn't want anything too crazy, so it was nice to have an entire vehicle and tour guide to ourselves. We had quite a few first-timers to Hawaii so we wanted to cover off as much as possible in one day. Emily was great and super informative, but also accomodating to our requests. She got us to all the good spots and ensured we were all fed and had a great time. We got to see all the popular sites of Oahu and tried lots of delicious food. Thank you Emily and also to Adam for his assistance with getting us booked in. Even over Easter weekend we had no issues.

    This was AWESOME! Adam was so great to work with. We had a full day after a cruise and before flight out. Adam worked with us and made sure we would see Hawaii. Emily was an amazing guide. She asked what we wanted to see first and even suggested things tourists don’t normally do. It was more than we could have hoped for. If you go to Honolulu and want to see the sights, they are definitely who you want to go with. I would give 10 stars if I could.

    Our tour with Adam was ranked at the top of the many highlights from our visit to Hawaii. We truly enjoyed spending the day with Adam as his knowledge of Oahu, the places of interest, the food, and surfing :) was amazing. We felt like it really was a personalized tour with him as he answered all of our questions while exploring the island. We truly recommend spending the day with Private Tours Hawaii.

    We had the wonderful Greg! We had a large group 8 of us, and a 12 hour tour. Greg was fantastic, talkative, funny, kind and very knowledgeable. We had a great time and honestly did not want the day to end. It was personalized to us and exceeded every expectation. We saw a LOT in 12 hours including the PCC which I highly recommend you do, as you get 3 day pass so can go back after! (Need to book this separately). I also suggest spending time up in north shore town maybe 30 mins and then head up to the fold trucks we are at seven brothers and it was delicious! Thank you again Greg and Adam for a great tour!!

    Our family visited Hawaii the week before Thanksgiving. There were 9 of us ranging from ages 6 to 70. We chose the Private Tours Hawaii Circle Island Tour in Oahu. It was fantastic! Our tour guide, Greg, was so entertaining and knowledgeable. He helped us make a plan to see and do many things to please us all before we had to leave the island. He surprised us with a few things also. (A great thing about this company was they picked us up from our hotel and let us bring our luggage with us. The air conditioned vehicle was clean and comfortable.) Some of us plan to return soon and we plan to call this same company. We are glad that Adam advertised this tour!!

    I took a Private Tour of Oahu with Ron and it was an absolutely fantastic adventure. Adam said Ron was a "rock star" and as guides go, he certainly was. We got an early start, so missed the traffic and tourist busses. Ron designed my trip to make sure we visited all the places on my list including two museum/gallery visits not on the menu. I got my Portuguese donut, garlic shrimp, and macademia nuts, what more could a girl ask for. Ron regaled me with stories of the culture and life as a Hawaiian. The icing on the cake of the drive was a visit to the Tantalus Lookout which provided a paneramic view of Honolulu and Waikiki. Spectacular, I could have stayed up there for hours.

    Hi Adam, A big shoutout to Private Tours Hawaii. We all had such a fantastic day on our tour of the island. You were so easy to work with when organizing our tour. Everything we wanted to see and do was done with ease. A massive thanks to our tour driver Ron who had a fabulous knowledge of the island. He pointed out things of importance as we came to them and stopped at places when we wanted to. I would highly recommend to anyone that wants a private tour of Oahu to use PHT. Thanks again Hamish, Julie, Mark, Jeanette and Kylie

    Aloha! We highly recommend Private Tours Hawaii. We had an amazing day before going back home. We were able to hit up all the spots we wanted and then some more. We never felt rushed on any of our stops. We will never forget that hike up the Diamond Head Crater. We tried some delicious local foods and enjoyed spectacular scenery for photo ops. Our tour guides Greg and Ron were both super friendly, funny, informative, and safe drivers. We can’t thank them enough for their hospitality and service. Thank you, Adam, for taking the time to respond to our emails, and arranged a perfect day for us. It was great meeting you and we all loved the delicious malasadas. It was a memorable last day in Hawaii! MAHALO!

    This was a great way to see what Oahu has to offer. It was a well organized and very enjoyable tour. From the first contact with Adam, he made everything very simple and flexible, always happy to adapt to our needs. Greg our tour guide was great, very knowledgeable and informative and made the day out visiting the island sights a lot of fun. If your plan y to visit Oahu, this tour is highly recommended.

    This tour by far was simply awesome! Adam, our tour guide was very accommodating. We booked it on a whim. It was storming earlier in the day and then cleared up. We emailed Private Tours Hawaii to see if they had availability at the last minute and they did! What started off as a gloomy day turned out to be absolutely gorgeous! We hit all the spots including some "secret" spots. What a tour! Thanks Adam for taking care of us!

    We had the absolute best time on our private tour with Ron! Started with scheduling and chatting with Adam about our tour requests and then had the best day with Ron touring the island. We went to every place on our list and had so much fun. We had a group of 14 and Ron was so kind and managed to keep us all happy. We cannot wait to go back and would definitely take another tour around the island visiting different locations with Ron. Thank you Ron and Adam for such a wonderful experience!

    While in Honolulu prior to a cruise, my husband & I and another couple spent two days touring with Private Tours Hawaii. While planning our Hawaii vacation, I worked with Adam, who was always prompt in responding, to customize our itineraries. Greg & trainee Emily were terrific guides for a scenic circle tour of Oahu, fitting in more sights and stops than expected and sharing a wealth of information along the way. A highlight of our hours visiting the Windward Coast with Ron (an avid surfer) was driving the Pali highway. We appreciated being able to end at the cruise ship terminal.

    We had our tour with Adam today. It was great! You can tell how much he lives and loves the island and the lifestyle of Oahu. We learned a lot about the island as well as about surfing. Unfortunately after the trip we didn't work off our Bucket List but added a lot of new things. 😏 We recommend this tour to everyone! It was a great experience!

    October 2022. We toured with Greg and he was delightful. All six of us enjoyed our time with him. We learned a lot about Hawaii and it couldn't have been any better. Highly recommend a tour with this company. Great from start to end. Thank you!

    We had such a wonderful private tour with Greg who crafted the perfect day to cater to all our needs and wishes. From finding the perfect spots for pictures, to eating at the best food trucks in the North Shore, and helping us with keeping our son comfortable during nap time! We saw turtles, all the hot spots around Oahu, and Greg was incredibly knowledgable, delightful and told excellent stories!

    We had a great experience with PTH! I had an easy time communicating with Adam about planning and Ron was a great tour guide. Both were super nice, communicative, and punctual. We ended up doing a circle island tour but the itinerary was still flexible the day of. Ron had great suggestions and gave lot of history/tips about the island. We traveled with parents, grandparents, and a baby (9people total) and everyone had a great time.

    After much research, I decided to book a tour with Private Tours Hawaii to visit Pearl Harbor and Punchbowl Cemetery. Adam was very responsive to my questions and made suggestions of sites to add to our tour. Greg was our tour guide and we could to have been more pleased. He arrived promptly at our hotel and shared a lot about the history of the island all along the tour.Prior to our arrival, I had asked them about a shave ice place I had seen and PTH went so far as to scope it out before our visit. I highly recommend this tour company. Thanks Adam and Greg!

    Sally was the best. Had 9 people ranging from 12 to 71 yrs old and she made sure they were all happy. She was very knowledgeable and interesting. Such a great experience.

    Booked a private tour for my parents, and they loved it. Sally, their guide, was fantastic. My parents said they could not have imagined a better guide for them. Plus the owner Adam was amazing to deal with. Highly recommend this company for private tours.

    Had a wonderful day tour with Private Tours Hawaii, I cant recommend them enough - it was a real highlight on our trip - our guide Greg was really excellent, had everyone in great form and was so attuned in reading what everyone might be interested in (we were a group of five ranging in age from 5yrs old to 69). The Hawaiian Monk Seal even greeted us on a beach which was a real treat,! The day flew by far too quick and compared to other tour/ guide experiences on the trip this was by far the best - A+++++ and Mahalo to Adam, Greg and team

    We had an awesome 9 hr tour of Oahu with Private Tours Hawaii. It was on a private van and totally customizable. Sally was a great tour guide and was so knowledgeable & nice. She was very accommodating of my daughter's food allergies. She knew all the good places to eat. We even had time to swim at Sunset Beach which wasn't on the original itinerary. I would highly recommend this company to see the island.

  • 5/5 Kimberlie C. 1 year ago on Google
    We were so glad we found Adam and Private Tours Hawaii. We spent 6 days in Kauai and decided to squeeze in 2 days in Oahu so the kids could go to Pearl Harbor. We had a late flight so wanted to fit in as much as possible. Greg our tour guide did not disappoint! He picked us up, got to know us a little and then planned our tour using the time we had left. We made it to airport in time for check-in. Our next trip we will spend more time in Oahu and defintely call for another tour!

    Private Tours Hawaii is a professional company that knows how to take care of their customers. Adam runs the company and was our first contact. His easygoing personality immediately put us at ease. Our tour guide Greg provided an excellent tour around Oahu and was very easy to get along with. We loved every minute and would recommend this for anyone wanting to get out of Honolulu and see a bit of the real Hawaii. They use comfortable minivans, have great connections and know what places resonate with visitors. You can't go wrong with Private Tours Hawaii.

    We had a delightful private (our family only: ages 10-88) tour of the island with Sally last week! She was very thoughtful, brought special toys for the kids, and had a wealth of knowledge about Oahu. We highly recommend using Private Tours Hawaii!!! They did a fabulous job of customizing the tour to our requests!!

  • 5/5 Jennefer R. 2 years ago on Google
    THIS IS THE TOUR YOU WANT. LOOK NO FURTHER. From the beginning, we had great communication with Mr Adam. Everything was clearly explained and the experience was better than described. Our tour guide (feels weird calling him a guide because he felt more like family by the end of the day), Mr Greg, was amazing. He pays extra close attention to detail in giving you the tour you envision and kept us all feeling comfortable and safe. We really did see EVERYTHING we wanted to see and let me tell you... We had a long list. Mr. Greg's knowledge of the island and group management skills kept us happy and moving right along without feeling rushed. We were so happy and having such a great time that we extended the tour just to have more time learning about the island with him at the end of the day. That day was like hitting the island tour lottery. Even the kids in our group asked throughout the rest of our week long stay about Mr Greg and whether or not we would get to hang out with him again. I could literally go on and on about what we loved touring with P.T.H. It was worth every penny.

    Sally was amazing. She was knowledgeable, engaging, friendly and took control and drove us to all these great places. We didnt have to think or drive or navigate and it truly felt like a vacation. When we went snorkeling she dropped us off, picked us up and this avoided dealing with parking. Her stories about Hawaiian life, and her family, brought the island to life. She gave us a much deeper understanding of the landscape. In addition, Sally knew all the spots to take us to eat, drink , and snack to have all the delicious Hawaiian culinary experiences. Adam and the company were responsive in helping understanding our needs and coming up with plans. A day to remember. Sally also pointed out other places of interest that we didnt have time for - like the Bishop museum, which was a highlight of the Island for my intellectual travellers who like additional history. Sally was a pleasure to spend the day with and made our Oahu island stay remarkable. Hands down our best full day tour of Hawaii.

  • 5/5 Laura P. 2 years ago on Google
    Our Tour was amazing!! Adam, the owner was amazing to work with and was always an email away. Sally our tour guide was a long time resident and was able to answer every question we had and show us amazing sites that we have not seen in the 6 times we have visited the island. Amazing experience!! Strongly recommend this company and Sally!

  • 5/5 Laurie J. 2 years ago on Google
    My husband, I and our four kids took an 8-hour circle tour with Ron as our guide on my 40th birthday. It was the perfect way to spend the day! Ron arrived with a fresh birthday lei and a smile on his face and I knew it was going to be an amazing day. He was extremely flexible and as he was talking to us, got a really good feel for what we liked and didn’t like. He adjusted the plans accordingly and made sure we saw things that were perfect for us. He also have us tips and ideas on things to do as we went out exploring throughout the rest of our trip. He was friendly, easy to talk to, kind and patient with my kids, and just all-around a really great guy! I couldn’t have asked for a better guide or better company to show us the island of Oahu! Thank you for taking on a last-minute booking, Adam!

  • 5/5 Kathryn G. 2 years ago on Google
    Our experience with Private Tours Hawaii couldn’t have been better. Adam was extremely responsive to my many questions, and we LOVED the day we and our 18 and 20 year olds spent with Ron. Great conversation, sightseeing, food, lots of laughter … and he was spot on with what we would enjoy seeing and doing. We had 7 hours in Honolulu and Ron helped make the best of it. Highly recommend!
