Grand Circle Island and Haleiwa 9 Hour Tour

Experienced the Grand Circle Island & Haleiwa Tour today with our super cool driver and tour guide Marlon (what an awesome guy) this tour was amazing and the garlic shrimps at Haleiwa are a must!! A day jam packed with O'ahu's best, great value for money, beautiful scenery and superb commentary. Definitely felt the Aloha ❤️ Hopefully see you on our next visit to Hawaii. Mahalo Julie and Tom x

This tour was well-organized and our guide/driver Lola was the best. Her energy and positive vibes made the times riding in the bus enjoyable. She also told stories and interesting tidbits about the island and Hawaii in general.

This was such an enjoyable day. Lola showed true aloha, and I appreciated her “talk story” and expert driving. We saw a lot of great sights. Really enjoyed the Haleiwa stop (90 minutes). I was traveling with an injured leg and Lola went out of her way to ensure I had a safe and enjoyable journey.

On the road commentary from driver/tour guide Marlon kept us intouch with history, culture and values of the locals. He was appreciative how our journeys add to tourism in Hawaii.

Marlon our guide was very entertaining and informative. The coach was clean and comfortable. Would highly recommend this tour.

The whole trip was awesome! Our tour guide was awesome ! We really enjoyed each stop and all of the scenic views.

We had the best tour guide, Kimo! He was so funny and full of history and knowledge and he loves Hawaii! It’s part if his history and it was wonderful to have him guide us through the most fun snippet of Oahu, from Waikiki to North Shore! Now we can go back and spend more time at the places we enjoyed! We got to see Byodo-in temple, dole plantation, macadamia nut farm, tasted so many flavors of macadamia nuts and coffee, even hot sauce, loved their tea too. We saw the blow hole and took many videos and photos. Also really enjoyed a 90 min lunch at Obama’s favorite chicken place, called Ray’s chicken and garlic shrimp from Camaron and Seven brothers. But I can’t wait to try Giovanni’s garlic shrimp. We also missed the shave ice from Matsumoto, but it’s in the same center where we stopped so next time I know to get in line for that right away. The malasada from Kamehameha was so delicious, I want to eat the whole box lol! So many beautiful places, passing by Koalua Ranch, Chinaman’s hat, Waimea beach and we couldn’t see Hanauma Bay, so we took another day to snorkel there. This is a tour you must do if it’s your first time on the island or if you haven’t had a chance to see everything of the island. This is a great way of introduction to precious places. I hope you enjoy the tour as much as we do!

The stops were quick but long enough to see what needed to be seen. Our tour guide, Patrick was amazing. He was informative and entertaining. I wish it would have stopped at one of the beaches on the north shore. I know that we couldn’t because of time. However, it didn’t take away from the great time we had overall.

Kalani was fantastic. We really enjoyed the tour and the sights. Kalani’s personality and humor was very entertaining.

It was a good way to view the island. Our bus driver shared a lot of knowledge about the history of the island.
