What you'll see
A Private Tour means you get Your Day Your Way! Upon making a booking, we will contact you to find out your interests and any specific requests you have for your Private Tour. We will then customize an itinerary: Just for You (Nau Wale No). With other tour companies you are stuck with large groups and a restricted schedule right down to the place you eat and the stores you can shop at. We will take you where you want to go based on your interests and our favorites. Experience Hawai'i like an insider, you will explore at your own pace and not the pace set by the bus driver.
You will get to spend as much time as you want at all the different locations. We are on your time schedule. You can swim and relax at the different beaches until you are ready to go. You can eat at restaurants that the locals love that tour buses do not go since these establishments cannot hold the volume of people on the buses. We will take you to shops that do not raise their prices for the tourists. We will stop at sites that the other tours cannot because of the size of their vehicle and due to the large crowds that go with their buses.
Most popular requests include: waterfalls, turtles, swimming at beautiful beaches, lookout points, Hawaiian Culture, local foods, and Northshore.
Prices Include: Vehicle, Tour Guide, Customized Itinerary, Taxes, and Pickup from the Waikiki/Honolulu areas. We provide the following items for you to use during the tour: towels, snorkeling masks, sunscreen,bug spray, bottled water, and light snacks.
