Oahu Island Tour
ABout our tour
Circle the island of Oahu on a guided tour, riding along rugged coastline and sandy white beaches from bustling Waikiki to the crashing surf of the North Shore. Stop at the windswept Pali lookout, visit sacred sites at Kualoa Ranch, and see pineapples at the famous Dole Plantation.
After you’re picked up in lively Waikiki, take a seat in your comfortable tour , passing by Diamond Head Crater on your way up to the Nuuanu Pali lookout. Brave the windy gusts for sweeping panoramas of the windward coast and views that stretch out to Chinaman’s Hat, an aptly nicknamed island off the shore.
Cruise by natural landmarks like the Halona Blowhole, where crashing waves send spouts of water high into the air, and Hanauma Bay, a snorkeler’s paradise stocked with vibrant tropical fish.
Stop off at majestic Kualoa Ranch for a guided tram tour, listening to Hawaiian stories and folklore as you journey to the sacred site Paliku. Pass through the Valley of the Temples for a glimpse of serene Byodo-In, a Buddhist place of worship, and a gleaming Mormon Temple built on a former sugarcane plantation.
On the rural North Shore, admire the powerful waves at Waimea Bay—this world-famous surfing destination can see up to 20-foot (6-m) swells in the winter. Your final stop is the Dole Pineapple Plantation. Here, you can explore Oahu’s agricultural heritage and sample tropical fruit on the historic grounds before making your way back to Waikiki.
