Oahu Island Tour
Activity Details
At the appointed time, we'll pick you up at your hotel in Honolulu, and from there we'll begin a comprehensive tour of Oahu. We'll visit the most fascinating places on the entire island!
We'll start by driving along Kahala Avenue, known as “the Beverly Hills of Hawaii,” where luxurious oceanfront mansions stand. We will continue on to the Halona Blowhole, a spectacular marine geyser that shoots jets of water several meters high. Nearby, you will enjoy breathtaking views of the Pacific Ocean and petrified lava cliffs.
We'll continue on to the Nu'uanu Pali Lookout, located at an altitude of 370 m (1,213 ft). Here we'll make a brief stop so you can admire the panoramic views. Afterward, our tour will take us inland, where we'll visit the Byodo-In Temple, a replica of a 10th-century Japanese shrine surrounded by gardens, lakes, and peacocks. You'll have 30 minutes to explore at your own pace. A magical place that will transport you to another continent!
After this stop, we'll skirt the coast until we see Mokoli'i, a small volcanic islet that rises above Kaneohe Bay. Then we'll arrive at Waimea Valley, a natural site of great cultural and spiritual importance. There you'll have 2 hours of free time to stroll through botanical gardens, visit archaeological sites, have lunch at your own pace, and, weather permitting, take a dip in the Waimea Falls.
With our energy restored, we'll continue on to the famous North Shore beaches, a true paradise for surf lovers. Their giant waves are quite a sight to behold!
On the way back, we'll stop at Haleiwa Town. You'll have 1.5 hours of free time to stroll around this charming town with its period architecture that combines history and a surfer vibe. As we cross the center of Oahu, we'll pass coffee and pineapple plantations until we reach the Dole Plantation, where we'll learn about the history of this fruit and can sample the famous Dole Whip ice cream for yourself.
Finally, we'll return to Honolulu and say goodbye after a 10-hour and 45-minute excursion.
