Absolute best tour !! Great host!! Will recommend to everyone !! And I used to live here…. But it’s fun to be the tourist !!

Genuinely one of the best fun experiences I had because of the tour guide Jake. He made it more engaging and found a way to add his own little styles when telling stories and talking about Hawaii

Perfect island tour for 1st timers on the island, our guide Kanamu was so lovely and genuine. Hearing her personal stories on the islands were endearing and her voice is so amazing to listen to ☺️

This was the absolute worst tour EVER! Ive been on many excursions and this tour gets the prize of worst. If you enjoy riding on a bus ALL day just to get off to take a few pictures - then this is for you! The snorkel experience was funny - the tour guide literally drops you off and says go near the rocks to see fish. Lunch was nasty and the fruit stand was something you might find on the side of a road - literally! DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY!

I’ve never been threatened by a tour guide before coming on this tour…So everything is going smoothly- until it came time to go snorkeling. Ya know- the thing we paid for. The wife and I go to change, and then I go to get our snorkels. I guess I had the audacity to ask for the equipment I paid for…Our tour driver, Kona, took exception to this. He said he had 20 snorkels, and if he’s out then there are no more snorkels left. I then asked if we’d get the extra money back for the snorkels, seeing as though they don’t have the equipment.Big mistake. The next words out of Kona’s mouth were threatening to crack my skull and getting more upset. He then proceeded to call his boss and again, threaten me with his boss on the phone.I honestly don’t have any words: this is hands down the worst tour experience I’ve ever had.The kicker is that I have to now get back on this bus with an unstable angry driver… currently waiting for their main office to call me back and “resolve this lack of aloha spirit.”Edit: their manager, Kristina, has refused a refund because I’ve already left them a bad review. So to recap: didn’t get what we paid for, threatened by the bus driver, and then no help from the front office. Please save your time and money, and do something else.

Josh and Owen were top notch tour guides. Josh had great stories about every town we went through. He was so friendly that it made us feel like we were with family instead of tourists on a tour! Would definitely recommend this tour. And very important point, we saw turtles while snorkeling and on the shore!

We went on the Island tour last week and we loved it! Cousin John Jr. was the best tour guide! Loved his ukulele playing and singing! Our 8 old year daughter enjoyed it too. She especially liked the snorkeling with the turtles! Highly recommend!

Went out today with a little rain but our tour guides Jack and Ray were fabulous they made the day fun and entertaining. Perfect timing we caught a whsle breaching at the start of our tour out by Halona Blowhole. Pop trivia, cultural and language tips plus history and homes of the stars. Good sense of humour and great hospitality. The snacks & drinks were flowing from the minute we got on the bus. Mum loved it thanks guys.

Yesterday. Wonderful experience. Saw so much beauty of the island. Every point of interest in tour description was great. John Jr. was an awesome tour guide. Very knowledgeable of island history and quirky tidbits of local information. He even spoke Pidgin for us. And he had great humor- he kept us laughing.And he played the ukulele and sang for us. He is very talented.He closed with one Izzys most mainland popular songs- it was beautiful. We definitely recommend this tour!

We had such a great time. Tony our tour guide was beyond funny, friendly and definitely knew HIS Island. Our group all get all g, and had a Blast. What a Great tour to take. Make sure you get Uncle Tony Rivera as you guide.

This is a must-take tour of Hawaii Island. Uncle Tony was Amazinggggg. His knowledge of Hawaii is Exceptional. He shared so many interesting facts about the island and personalized the tour that only a native will have the privilege of knowing. He made an 8-hour tour feel unbelievable and made you feel like you were at home. Also, I got to meet new friends. Thank you again, Uncle Tony, for providing an unforgettable tour.

Awesome tour and if you go ask for Kilani the tour guide / bus driver hes very knowledgeable about Hawaii and makes the tour very fun .

“Cousin” John Jr. was a fabulous tour guide!!! He provided so much cool information and awesome entertainment (he has an amazing voice)!!! The donuts were amazing at the first stop and lunch at Fumi’s was wonderful!! I highly recommend requesting John Jr. as a guide!! We were a family of four with 2 teenagers who had a wonderful time and were even able to swim with the sea turtles!

King Mike gave us a fantastic tour! He’s super knowledgeable about the Island and even took us to an off the route location to see some tropical fish. My whole group loved this tour and it was a great way to see the Island and get out of Waikiki:)

John Jr. Rocks! He is the best tour guide! He is funny, very knowledgeable, personable, and entertaining. He is also a great singer. He made our tour with Aloha Circle Island Tour unforgettable. We highly recommend Aloha Circle Island Tour...if you are lucky enough to get John Jr. as your guide, youre in for a treat😁👍...Aloha...Seattle

Cousin John Jr. was a wonderful guide. He was very knowledgeable about the entire island. This tour was very beautiful, great tour to get out and see the true beauty Oahu has to offer. John has a wonderful signing voice and made the tour around the island amazing. Great tour for family’s, you will have an amazing time and make wonderful memories with family.

The tour was awesome... Our guide was John Jr, and he is top notch. He showed us around the island, shared the history with us, sang BEAUTIFUL songs (he has an amazing voice). It was so much more than we expected. Ive been on many other cities tours and feel that John Jr is what really made this tour the best ever. Mahalo Aloha Circle Island Adventure.

Aloha,Great experience with a knowledgable multi-talented guide. John gave us stories, history and legends about the island. He song local sings and played his ukulele. We werent rushed, but we stayed on scheduled which made it very relaxing. He taught us how to pronounce Hawaiian words and have us history of some of the most common words.We really enjoyed Oahu Curcle Island for and so glad that we selected them for our opportunity to tour this beautiful island.

My family and I had the pleasure of touring with John Jr on the Aloha Island Circle Tour. He provided history of the island, taught us some of the language, stopped numerous times for sight seeing, food, turtle snorkeling and shopping. John Jr cracked a bunch of jokes and even gave us a little Hawaiian tune. Overall, it was a great experience and Im glad this is how we started our vacation because we were able to get around the island with ease for the remaining trip. I would definitely recommend this tour!

Well there were 2 tour buses going out. There were 12 on the big one and supposed to be 7 on ours. the family of 3 tested positive so we had the tour van to our selves. Our tour guide Ci was amazing. Loved taking this trip with him and hearing his stories. He has passion in his career and it shows. I feel like we made a friend. Highly recommend

As this was our 1st guided tour and our 1st trip to Hawaii, we had no clue what to expect. Uncle Tony was an incredible tour guide! He kept us laughing, hydrated, and has a pride for his Island that is indescribable. My husband and I truly felt like he cared about us all and exhibited the true meaning of Ohana. His Polynesian culture knowledge is incredible and even taught us many words in Hawaiian. I was also extremely impressed by the professionalism and ease of purchasing & using Groupon to purchase this tour. The emails and reminder calls were excellent! In fact, were going on another Aloha tour tomorrow to Pearl Harbor. I would highly recommend Aloha tours! Your family will be treated like family! Thank you for an incredible tour!

John jr was amazing he knew everything about Hawaii! He was also very funny ! The tour is one of the best I have taken on the island and would recommend it to any one ! The pineapple ice cream was the best!

We joined the tour led by Cousin John Jr. who was one of the best tour guides ever. John Jr. was very knowledgeable and entertaining throughout. He even threw in a few really cool songs during the tour and he kept everyone happy. This is a perfect tour for first time visitors to acquaint themselves with Oahu and Hawaii in general. Thanks John Jr.!

We booked a Groupon deal with Aloha Circle Tour. Our driver was Kanamu and she was amazing. She was funny and very knowledgeable on Hawaiian culture and the island of Oahu. She made us laugh and even made me shed a tear as she sang us some traditionally Hawaiian songs. The tour would not have been the same without Kanamu. The stops along the tour were picturesque and the snorkeling portion was fun too. It was nice not being the one driving and dealing with the traffic. I recommend this tour to first timers as it helps you see alot of the north shore.

John Jr. was fantastic. He was knowledgeable and funny. Fumis shrimp was beyond good and very fresh. But Fumis only accepts cash. There were a couple who ordered but didnt have cash so they missed out. We were lucky to see the sea turtles when snorkeling. I highly recommend this tour.

Great tour. Only thing was the bus was full me and my partner had to sit apart from each other.. all seats were taken.cousim Shannon was awesome. great tour for the price. (Groupon)

Had a great, fun fact filled adventure with Cousin Maya. Highly recommend it!

This tour was amazing, especially when we went snorkeling in Turtle Beach; stopping in front of President Barack Obamas childhood home; and eating fresh shrimp at Fumis! John Jr., our singing tour guide, was icing on the cake! His knowledge of the island history was remarkable, and the island songs he sang were beautiful! Its a must do excursion when in Waikiki!

Wonderful experience, and I’m usually not one for tours. Is great!

We booked this tour well in advance and they never picked us up for the tour. We called them several times with no answer. When we finally got through to them 30 minutes after our reservation time they said they found our reservation and wanted to look at something and asked us to call back in 2 minutes instead of just putting us on hold. They never answered the phone again after that. We were so disappointed bc we were looking forward to this for months.

Great if you want to sit on a bus and listen to someone talk.

It was AMAZING!!! Uncle Tony was an amazing host and shared many personal moments with our group which made us really feel like ohana. The stops were great places to go and I feel as though this tour made our trip complete. I highly recommend this tour to anybody!

Our group of 18 had a great experience with Unko Tony! He was very personable, funny and full of history on all things Hawaii and specifically the North Shore. This is one tour you don’t want to pass up!

Really enjoyed the tour. John Jr was funny, intertaining and very knowledgeable about the Island and the History. My daughter really loved snorkeling with the turtles, I tried but wasnt to successful (no fault of Oahu Circle Island tours of course) .. but we did see 3 sea turtles. John Jr. was a great guide. Recomend the tour. Mahalo!

My mom and I came here on vacation from Alabama and wanted to see something we couldn’t see at home and boy did we! Cousin Maia has oodles of knowledge to share about the island! He was fun and a huge cut up and talked just about the whole trip about different things pertaining to the island. He took us to local fruit stands and even offered to share his dole whip to everybody if you were unable to get some for yourself! I cannot say enough good things about him! He allowed time for everything including some extras! Never once did he say anything negative which was so refreshing! Oh yes! And the donuts he brought us all!** If you do anything on this island- Do the Aloha Circle Island Tour and see if you can request Cousin Maia He is what Hawaii is about- the Aloha spirit!***Mahalo Cousin Maia from your Alabama cousins!

John Jr was an awesome tour guide! He is so knowledgeable of the island, and he sang some beautiful songs for us! This tour is awesome, it takes you to so many unique spots and you learn so much.

My tour guide was John Junior/Junior John... He was very knowledgeable, funny and a great singer. He made the trip so fun. All the stops were pretty awesome it was just a great trip I had a blast. I highly recommend the store guys youll love it. My favorite stop was the Turtle Beach, because we had a couple turtle swim up to us and the fumi shrimp was so delish...

What an amazing experience. From booking through the conclusion. Firstly, we were traveling with close to 20 family and friends who joined us for our wedding celebration, and Sam was overly accomdating. She worked with me and kept in touch constantly to ensure that my entire wedding party had a seat on the same bus. Mahalo Sam! Secondly, we were led by Unko Tony and he was a gem. He has a great personality and is extremely knowledgeable about the history of the island. Words cant describe how amazing he is. Mahalo Unko. We will never forget you. Ohana for life. Thank you for the blessings!

My driver was Kanamu!!!! I love her! I hope I can request her next time I come to Hawaii with my family. She was extremely informative about the island as well as the history. I learned so much about the island I didn’t know before. She made the trip very fun and my daughter and I REALLY enjoyed ourselves!!!! Thank you again Kanamu!!!!

Cuz Myah was awesome. Informative and took a few extra stops to show us some cool secrets around the island. Id reccomend taking this tour if its your first time here

John Jr was very informative. Plenty of cheesy dad jokes to get us all to laugh. My kids favorite part, his singing, the singing tour guide. Many beautiful picture stops. We lucked out and saw a romantic photo shoot in the cove at halona blow hole (where 50 first dates had a scene). Lunch at fumis was pretty good.

Very disappointing tour. The bus was over 1 hour late, and while advertised as a tour with the option to go snorkeling, that turned out to not be the case. Complete waste of precious family vacation time and money!

Booking this tour was the best idea Ive had in a long time! Cousin A was a remarkable tour guide, I was instantly at ease with him, even as a solo traveler. His sense of humor, stories, and knowledge was exceptional. I learned so much on the tour and I think he really honored the Hawaiian Spirit. Cousin A has a real talent for this, I cant wait to return to Hawaii and book more tours with him! I would unequivocally recommend this tour, and I cant speak for the other guides, but if you have the option, try to get on a tour with Cousin A, you wont regret it! The tour itself really gets you outside of the hustle and bustle of Honolulu proper. We saw whales in the distance at sunrise along the first stop of the tour, while eating the most delicious donuts. Lunch at Fumis was an excellent choice! I got the lemon pepper shrimp option and I dont regret it. Cousin A pointed out a lot of really cool things along the way on our drive up to the North Shore. We even saw where President Obama lived as a baby! definitely upgrade to the snorkeling option, while we didnt see any sea turtles on this particular day, I did see a great deal of tropical fish and also an eel! Stopping along the way to see the famous endangered Hawaiian monk seals left me speechless. What a special opportunity. Cousin A shared so many moving Hawaiian legends and stories, I felt really connected to the land and waters that we were exploring. I could go on for days about how wonderful this trip was. It was the highlight of my visit. Mahalo!

Cy was amazing!! Very knowledgeable & personal. Thank you for making my family’s trip memorable.

John Jr. was an amazing tour guide. This was my 3rd trip to Hawaii, 2nd to Honolulu, and he was informative, as well as entertaining! #BeautifulSingingVoice

Would not answer the phone and tried to get in contact with them

Jon Jr was great. The tour provided beautiful pictures. The lunch was not that great. Overall it was fun. We were lucky and saw the turtles. I would recommend.

We were stood up! We signed up for the tour, got a confirmation email back, and showed up at the pickup point at the designated time. We waited over an hour, and they never arrived. They did refund our ticket price but they cost us a day of our vacation. Never, never, never use this company!

Ray was such an excellent, informative and funny host and driver. Can’t recommend this tour enough. We had a family of five from adults to 18 year old to two teenagers and there is something for everyone on this. After the early start it’s all fun after that starting with the early donut and finishing with the dole ice cream. Great way to see the island and take in the history. Ask for Ray and your day will be fun filled

John Jr our guide was the best, he gave us a fun trip with his humor and knowledge. He taught us all of of Hawaiian history and culture. All of the places were great I recommend that you try this tour. It takes you all around Oahu island and you will not regret it. It keeps you busy and the snorkeling was great. I saw a lot of fish at the coral and it was definitely fun and family friendly. I will come again!!!

I booked the circle island tour for my 17yr old daughter and I on our trip to Oahu. Uncle Tony was our guide, he was very informative on Hawaiis history, politics, geography and native people. I thought we were gonna just sight see and snorkel but I didnt realize how much i would learn on this tour. We saw turtles but there werent any around where we swam, I saw lots of different little fish. We had fun anyways. Uncle Tony was telling stories, jokes, teaching us Hawaiian language and sang us a beautiful song, all the while making us feel welcome as tourists. I would recommend this tour to anyone who wants to learn about Oahu and have fun doing it.

Great fun, Great Value

Cousin K made our day great. He was gracious, detailed & made sure we were enjoying ourselves. It is a long day, so come prepared for that. Its a great way to see the island, and provides beautiful views. My favorite spot was the fresh fruit stand!

John Jr. (the singing tour guide) was very funny and informative. He played the ukulele and sang for us, taught us many Hawaiian words and filled our tour with lots of Hawaiian history. He offered some good insights and tricks to enjoy each stop we made. It’s a long day in the van but there is a good amount of stops and John Jr.’s humor made the trip even more enjoyable. Even my teenage son, who isn’t easily impressed, really enjoyed the tour and especially John Jr. Thanks for a memorable trip around the island.

Amazing tour! Our tour guide was Cousin Maya and he made sure that we were never bored during the trip. We stopped at each stop with just the right amount of time and while we traveled, he would give us little tidbits of Hawaiian history and share with us what modern Oahu is like today. Cousin Maya also brought us some poi donuts which were delicious. When we went snorkeling we saw two sea turtles! One while we were snorkeling and one on the beach. In addition to the stops listed on the website, we also passed by where Jurassic Park and Avatar were filmed which was super cool. We also drove through a couple of really cute towns and Cousin Maya pointed out the best attractions to come back and visit on our own. Highly recommend going on this tour early in your trip since it gives a nice overview of what to expect from the island and it could give you some inspiration about what to schedule for the rest of the trip!

My family, friends and I took the tour on Monday, July 9, 2018. John Jr was our guide and he was wonderful. He was funny, kind, courteous and entertaining. The tour was a great mix of history, current events, beautiful scenery and unique experiences for first time visitors to the island. Our group loved seeing the sea turtles and the monk seal as well as the food stops! I also enjoyed how our guide was able to enlighten us on the history of the island and keep our kids engaged by incorporating current pop culture. Overall, we had a fantastic time. Thank you for the experience.

My wife and I are in Honolulu celebrating our 30th wedding anniversary and can’t thank cousin Johnny Jr. enough for starting us out on such a fun day. From the start we could tell we probably made the best choice selecting Aloha Circle Island Tour as an introduction to Honolulu. Little did we know we would get the history of the island, but Hawaii itself and the people as well are fascinating. Or, was cousin Johnny Jr. just that good of a tour guide...I am typically not too interested in hanging out on a beach and especially not eager to see what’s lurking around inside the water, but !holy cow! snorkeling with sea turtles was absolutely awesome! Thank goodness for lifeguard Dan and his aloha attitude to making that experience a reality for everyone. The poi donuts were an interesting start to the history introduction and made for good conversation, so please don’t stop doing that. The ukulele is a nice touch too cousin. Don’t give up your day job, please. Just to finish the thought about the day, it ended with an unbelievable fireworks display here at the hotel. Thanks again Aloha Circle Island Tour!

Just took a tour and cousin John Jr. Was the best he was funny, interesting and very informational. He knew everything about Oahu. Any question that was asked he answered. When we went snorkeling we saw a bunch of turtles my daughter was thrilled. I would defiantly recommend this company but mostly this guide. He made us all feel like family.Jodie

We went on the 6-7hr circle Island tour. Pickup was on time and the driver/host John Jr. Was friendly, informative and not obnoxious. He was mindful of the different age groups on the bus. During the drive he would give us interesting facts and point out things to us. He even serenaded us with a Ukelele a few times! The donuts were yummy and we had unlimited access to bottles water. The stops were a bit short but I think there isnt much they can do given the itinerary. Its like getting a small taste of the tourist attractions. We didnt rent a car (7 adults, 9 kids) so this was the most convenient way to see a Oahu outside of Waikiki. I would also say that the tour is kid friendly. We didnt see any turtles at turtle bay but that may have been because of the windy drizzly weather. I would recommend this tour.

We did this tour on our second day on the island and it was a great way familiarize ourselves with many of the top tourist spots and learn about Hawaiian history and culture. John Jr. Was an excellent guide - fun and entertaining the entire journey, full of lots of fun facts, stories and a pretty good singing voice to boot! Despite having a cooler drizzly day it was a great experience and I would certainly recommend it to any traveller visiting the island.

Great tour! Every time we return to Oahu we do a circle island tour. This by far was one of the better tours weve had. Uncle Tony was our tour guide and he was very genuine and sincere. He made the tour very fun and interactive. It also doesnt hurt that he can sing! Thanks for a great tour Uncle Tony!

Cousin Maya was amazing 😉 learned so much about Hawaii History and we were never bored. I highly recommend the tour. The only con is that I willadd a little more time to stop and take a couple photos.

Tour was great, guide was awesome, everything was perfect. However, harassing me 3 times for a review is not okay.Calling to confirm? Fine. Not letting me hang up until I listen to your spiel about leaving reviews? Not fine.Then, calling me back a couple days later to make sure Im going to do so? Also not fine! Im on vacation, not here to go online and start reviewing things. And sending an email too? If you keep doing this I dont think youll keep that 5 star record for long!Anyway, the tour itself was excellent! John Jr was great, I very much enjoyed his stories and jokes, and his songs were nice as well. The locations were excellent and I feel I got a very good taste of Oahu on your tour. Just fix the administrative issues and youre perfect!

The tour was amazing, you truly do get to see all parts of the island and learn about the rich cultural history along the way. But what made the tour extra special was our tour guide John Junior. He was fun, cheery, and extremely personable. I dont think the tour wouldve been the same without him. All in all, this tour is definitely worth it. Aloha, cousins!

Positive: guide was great with wide knowledge. car was good. there was water for everxonenegative: tour ended 1.5h short, we didn’t see all the promised sights/stops, sometimes felt like a sales tour with stops at all the gift shops, stops all at the most crowded places. no secret spots as promised

Uncle Tony made this tour feel like hanging out with family. He showed passion for and immense knowledge of the island. He made time fly by as we all were having so much fun. I highly recommend this tour and if able to request Uncle Tony. I hope to visit with you again soon Uncle Tony😁!

Great tour. Cousin Shannon was very knowledgeable, pointing out sights and interesting facts, kept everyone entertained and made sure we stayed on track. He even made a stop based on request made for fresh coconut milk and fruit. The tour provides a way to see and experience a good portion of the island. Cousin Shannon also gave us tips on places not on the tour, but worth seeing and places to dine. Awesome recommendations, had fun sightseeing and enjoyed all the food.

Cousin Maya was the best! He’s full of knowledge and hilarious! But don’t be late, that’s one thing I could tell that irked him a bit. We booked through Groupon and it was worth it! Don’t book through your hotel because even though it’s a full day tour, it’s not worth the full price. We saw many things that weren’t listed on the brochure which was a plus. Lunch was amazing and snorkeling was upper fun! I highly recommend this tour and hopefully you get cousin Maya.

This was a great day tour. It made it better with having John Jr as your guide/driver/entertainer/historian for the day! He is just awesome! He gave a lot of insight and history of the places we went to; he even entertained us with a few ukulele tunes and singing! Very knowledgeable and funny!

We had an awesome tour with John Jr. We had fun at all of the locations. The lunch stop was really good. I liked that John made an effort to make everyone familiar with each other and get a good vibe going. The narration and songs were great. 🤙

My family absolutely loved this tour!! John Jr. was an amazing tour guide, even singing and playing ukulele for us. It was awesome! John knew so much history about the island, we really enjoyed listening to him. It was interesting to see all the stops and hear all about them.The landscapes are amazing, the macadamia nuts and lunch were delicious and my 1 year old daughter really enjoyed the pineapple plantation. I loved snorkeling in the sea. There was maybe a little too many gift shops on the tour, I would have maybe liked to see the buddhist temple instead or have enough time to ride the train, but I highly recommend John Jr. and Aloha Circle Tours. Fantastic experience!!!

The tour was amazing. Uncle Tony provided a great history lesson while keeping us laughing. The sites were beautiful. It was an amazing way to see and experience the beauty of Oahu. I will definitely check it out again the next time I come!

Where do I begin? This whole experience was absolutely amazing! My husband and I took the Circle island tour, so to say it was amazing would be an understatement. Sam made booking it a breeze and Shonnon, our tour guide was phenomenal to say the least! He was so knowledgeable about the island and the sites he took us too. He’s personality and sensor of humor made the whole entire trip worth while! Shannon you rock and I could only hope you get he recognition you deserve! HIGHLY RECOMMEND THE CIRCLE ISLAND TOUR ❤️Erica

This is a great tour....highly recommend! Charlie, our guide, was very nice, knowledgeable and funny! This is a great way to see a lot of Oahu and learn a lot. The stops along the way are great. You get to see many different neighborhoods like where the locals live and where celebrities own homes too. You also get to see many historical sites and monuments. Dole plantation is great...so is the stop at Fumis for lunch. None of the stops were disappointing. Highly recommend!

Amazing tour! We took the circle island tour with John Jr. as our tour guide. There was never a boring moment from the beginning to the end. Every stop was worth visiting and even my 6-year-old daughter said The tour was so much fun!. We purchased the tour from Groupon, but the quality of service is definitely a five star. This tour has become the highlight of our trip to Oahu. Highly recommended!

Uncle Anthony was a great, personable tour guide with lots of insight into the island. We really enjoyed listening to his stories. Being on his tour really felt like having a member of the family take you around the island and tell you not only about the history of a place but a personal story that makes it feel like you’re a part of island life.

I took my kids on the tour and had the time of our lives! Our tour guide was Cousin Miah and he was AMAZING. There was never a dull moment on the tour. He is very knowledgeable and gives great local tips on things to do while visiting. The best part of the trip was Cousin Miah’s humor! He will have you laughing throughout the entire tour nonstop. Best tour I’ve been on. I truly recommend it to anyone visiting and wanting to get a real feel for the island.

Thank you John Jr. for the fabulous Oahu Circle Island Snorkel Tour you took me on. Your knowledge of the island, your ukelele performances and your sense of humour throughout the tour was superb. The donuts were delicious and water provided during the tour was appreciated as well. Loved the coconut shrimp. I definitely recommend this tour to start your trip in Oahu, it’ll help with some basic history and the orientation of the island. 🤙🏽

We had an awesome tour, and John Jr was a wonderful tour guide. He was very knowledgeable and I loved hearing him sing and play his ukulele! I would highly recommend this tour, and ask for John Jr!! We all loved visiting different places on the island and getting a feel for where things/places are!

John Jr was a great tour guide! Very entertaining and knowledgeable! The drive & view was beautiful! Saw a sea turtle come right up on the beach at Turtle Bay! Great day! Thanks John Jr!

We had a great day today on the Aloha Circle Island tour. John Jnr was a fantastic host sharing lots of interesting Hawaiian history and knowledge with us. John had a great ability to keep the tour group on schedule without feeling rushed at any of the stops. A particular favourite added bonus was John’s rendition of “Somewhere Over the Rainbow” played Hawaiian style on the ukulele. Thanks for a great day. Can highly recommend this great day out.

John Junior was amazing. Great local knowledge along with humor and a great musical talent. Enjoy every minute. Seriously choose this company and hopefully you’re lucky enough to get John Junior as your guide you won’t be disappointed

I had the opportunity to go on a Circle Island Tour with the wonderful guide Kanamu. She was so pleasant and made it a point to learn everyone’s name and a little about them as she took the time to tell us about her and share with us about the beautiful island of Oahu. I came with my husband, sister and two young children 1 and 3 1/2 and we felt Ohana. She was great. I would recommend doing it at the beginning of your trip instead of near the end that way you have time to go back and see some of the wonderful places that she talks about but we didn’t have time to stop at. It was well with the money and the time you won’t be disappointed.

This is my first time in Hawaii. I thought the tour was pretty thorough, as you go all around the island. You learn a lot of interesting information and get to stop and take pictures and take on new experiences. The tour, although amazing in itself, would not have been the same without our amazing tour guide driver cousin “John Jr” (Kione). He kept us laughing and imparted vast knowledge about Hawaii. He also impressed us with his singing and ukulele playing :) take the tour ...and ask for John Jr!

Had a blast on the circle island tour with our awesome guide Uncle Tony! HIGHLY recommend you ask for him to be your guide. Very funny and personable and kept us engaged and entertained the entire time! So many cool stops all along the island including some great locals only eateries and gift shops. The day really flew by!!

Our tour was on 8/18/18 and our tour guide was Cousin John Jr. Cousin John Jr. Is an excellent tour guide. Made everyone felt welcome, very knowledgeable of the Hawaiian history, polite, courteous, respectful. On top of that, the man can sing. We had an amazing time. Thank you Cousin John Jr. Keep up the good work. Mahalo.

My wife and I went to Hawaii for our anniversary and we chanced on an offer at Living Social. Pretty decent amount for a circle island tour, was not expecting so much because of the price we paid and it turned out really great! Awesome singing driver, very entertaining. The places we visited were really lovely! Blowholes, pineapple plantation, and a lot more. We had fun with snorkeling. Looking forward to do it again with our children next year!

Loved our tour with Cousin John Jr. He made the trip very fun. John Jr. sang songs throughout the trip, showed us great sites, swam with the turtles, ate tasty shrimp and told us wonderful stories about the island. It was nice to get a taste of the island with Groupon. We even went back to a couple sites John Jr. showed us the next day. Enjoyed it all! Loved the Poi donuts. Will miss those!!!

Great tour! We hit all the beautiful sites while listening to the history of Hawaii and some local stories. Our tour guide John Jr. was awesome! He was funny, knowledgeable and even sang a few songs on his ukulele! Definitely recommend this tour if it’s your first time on the island!

My entire family (including kids ages 6-16) loved this tour! Shannon was a fantastic tour guide, very knowledgeable and we learned so much on the tour. We loved all the stops, particularly the Dole Plantation. I think all of the stops are timed well, and we all enjoyed the whole day (which is pretty unusual to have consensus with the 6 of us!).

Pick up was on time and tour guide was very friendly. Expected a few more stops to take pictures, didn’t get to see any sea turtles and the dole factory visit was only about 25 minutes. I expected the tour to be a bit longer and would be able to spend more time at different places as it said it would end around 3:30-5:00 however we were back to our hotel by 2:45.

THIS TOUR WAS ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!We thought we could dip our feet in to see whats around in Hawaii and rent a car if we didnt have enough time at each location to go back. To our surprise, we actually had quite some time at each location for us to enjoy ourselves and finish mostly everything on our bucket list in 1 day on this tour. OH! Before I forget, our tour guide, Cousin Kypo,THE best tour guide Ive had in my life. MUST DO MUST SEE!

Took this tour to get the chance to see areas other than the Waikiki. It was a great tour, John Jr was fantastic, informative with a good sense of humour. I didnt expect to have a singing driver for sure but He was actually very good! If you can request a guide John jr was excellent!

If there was an option to go past 5 stars I would. Uncle Tony was the best tour guide my wife and I have ever experienced. Not only was the tour informative from a historical standpoint, but he made it funny and personal. The guy serenaded the group with his ukulele. We would do this all over again!

Greatest experience! Even my teenager, who thought he would hate it (8 hours on a bus? Im not going!) had a really good time! Uncle Tony is the best - played guitar and ukulele and sang for us, taught us some Hawaiian words, took us to amazing places, couldnt have been better.... DONT go on the gigantic Roberts Bus tours. This is the way to go. Much less people and more personal. The time flies by and you will enjoy it - guaranteed!

This tour is amazing!! Our tour guide, John Jr., was seriously phenomenal. He was very descriptive/informative, friendly, genuine, and funny! And, HE SINGS!!! This was such an enjoyable tour! Thanks John Jr. for making our island tour so fun! Mahalo!

My family and I had a great time on the tour today (07/11/18). John Jr was our guide and he was fantastic ~ a great sense of humor and he sang songs throughout the trip, including one of my favorites “Somewhere Over the Rainbow” John Jr gave a lot of exciting facts about the island and culture during the tour ~ there was never a dull moment. Great tour, thanks John Jr for making this a special day!

Uncle Tony was a fantastic tour guide, very knowledgeable with fun facts about the Oahu and it’s history. He told us stories about his grandfather and his wife’s family too. You just need to go and experience the tour for yourself, you won’t be disappointed!

I had the best time ever.Highly recommend this tour for anyone who comes to the island. Also John Jr best tour guide ever went above and beyond. Actually it was 5 stars plus. Thanks for a memorable trip.

Uncle Tony was fantastic! Made the tour fun and interesting. It was a nice island tour and we were glad to experience it. Hit many of the highlights of the island. Would recommend.
