Must Do Tour in Oahu

Our private tour with Hawaii Turtle Tours was fantastic! Benji was very communicative and informative when scheduling the trip. We were a group of 4 adults, 2 teens, 2 10 year olds and a 5 year old. Our driver, Koa, was excellent. He is a local born Hawaiian and provided some great knowledge about Oahu and the areas we were seeing - as well as a lot of Hawaiian language. Our main goal was to see turtles. The surf while we were there prevented us from being able to snorkel with turtles. Laniakea beach (turtle beach) was covered with tourists, but not turtles due to the surf - but Koa took us off the beaten path to make sure we saw them. We also went to Waimea Valley to swim in the falls. Our smaller kids were getting tired by this time, so he suggested taking the tram up to save their little legs. This was a great suggestion. We were able to spend more time swimming in the falls without wearing out the kids walking up the trail. Waimea Falls is absolutely stunning and is a must do!! We drove down North Shore and saw all the famous beaches - Sunset Beach and Banzaii Pipeline. Stopped and watched some surfers. Koa had tons of knowledge about surfing and North Shore, which was really interesting. We then made the trip to Turtle Bay for snorkeling. Mole was our snorkel guide. We had some experienced snorkelers and first timers - he was really helpful and patient with the kids! We felt very comfortable and safe with our young kids snorkeling in the water. Saw tons of fish! Last we stopped at Dole Plantation, where we had lunch. One of our party really wanted to see Dole, so we were glad to fit in. However, overall Dole was not impressive - we would skip that if we did it again. Overall this was a phenomenal experience and I highly recommend!

Family trip

Great for phone calls and texts . Showed up early to pick us up. Mike and John made sure we were taken care of , and where we needed to be on our trip. They went over and above in helping to get tickets to an event that we couldn’t . Totally top notch people and company. They are the standard by which all travel companies should be judged.

Greatest day ever!

So much fun!! Nevin is a great tour guide!! He made sure we saw all that was on our list and made it so interesting. He's a very patient, humorous and knowledgeable young man. The best stop was Turtle Beach. We had a large group and everyone was able to see turtles 🐢
