Royal Star Grand Circle Island Tour - East Oahu, Pali Lookout, Haleiwa & Dole
Great Tour
Reviewed by: Nancy
Our tour guide was the best Kulani! Very informative tour of Oahu. Just a little helpful tip to people buying this tour. The information for the tour indicates breakfast included, however it wasn't an adequate breakfast. It was a hawaiian donut and water. Maybe it would better to say small snack included instead of breakfast. Our tour guide is an asset to his employer. If you've never been to Oahu, you should take the tour! I went with my family of 7 which included 5 adults and 2 teenagers. They loved it!

Oahu Circle Tour with Kalani
Reviewed by: JYang
This was such a great way to see the amazing sights of Oahu without the hassle of driving or looking/paying for parking! The bus was clean including the restroom and we felt safe being driven by our guide Kalani. He was both humorous and informative, we could tell he really loved his culture and the island.
The time allotted for each location was perfect. It was a long, adventurous day but we enjoyed every minute of it! We will definitely book with this tour company should we visit the island again.

Royal Star Grand Circle Island Tour - East Oahu, Pali Lookout, Haleiwa & Dole
Did not get picked up
Reviewed by: Remy
My family and I were very excited to do the Deluxe Oahu Grand Circle Island Tour. Unfortunately, the bus did not pick us up. I contacted dispatch 5 min. before pick up time to make sure we were in the right spot and we were. Buses came and went and our bus never arrived. According to dispatch, the bus was there waiting for us for 15 minutes. What was upsetting was the bus is a deluxe big bus and not a van. You cannot miss it! Although this was a huge disappointment and a waste of time, I give 5 STARS to costumer service for Veltra. She took care of my concerns and was very easy and friendly to talk to. I'm sure there was a miscommunication somewhere and a huge error. I will be getting a full refund and may use them again in the future. Everyone deserves a second chance!

Royal Star Grand Circle Island Tour - East Oahu, Pali Lookout, Haleiwa & Dole
Great Oahu Island Circle Tour
Reviewed by: David & Anita Lewis
Kalani was our driver and was excellent! His knowledge of the island and suggestions made the tour for my wife and I. There was no way that we would have been able to hit every spot that we went to, especially with cost of rental cars on the island being so high. When in Oahu Royal Stars is a great option to boost your knowledge of and appreciation for the island. Because of Kalani, we have a new respect for the island of Oahu, its beauty, and the Hawaiian Culture and history. We also learned some new Hawaiian terms/phrases (a ole pila kia) Mahalo Nui Loa!

Cross one off the bucket list!
Reviewed by: Nick
Cage diving has always been at the top of my list of wants whenever I go on vacation.. finally got the chance during this trip to Hawaii, the women running the boat were super knowledgeable and made sure it was an enjoyable experience.. loved that the sharks were not coaxed to the boat by artificial means i.e. chumming the water.. highly recommend to anyone looking for a life-changing encounter with these beautiful majestic creatures!

My wife and I are so glad we did this on our first day in Hawaii. We were able to appreciate our trip so much more after touring the whole island. Our guide, William Kalani, was so much fun. He was also extremely knowledgeable with his love for his home apparent. Would suggest this tour for anyone!

Royal Star Grand Circle Island Tour - East Oahu, Pali Lookout, Haleiwa & Dole
If you have limited time in Hawaii I would take the tour, it is a good bang for your buck.
Reviewed by: Derek
The tour was very informative. We really covered a lot of the island, they call it the Grand Circle Tour for a reason. We met a lot of good people on the bus and the ride was enjoyable. The stops were broken up well, you we never on the bus for more that an hour without stopping. Some of the views were incredible. We had a great time at the food stops, Dole and the Macadamia place. We ate so many macadamia nuts and free coffee. The temple stop was also pretty cool, ringing the bell and going into the Buddhist Temple. The temple was gorgeous. Some of the drawbacks were that several companies do this tour at the same time so some locations are very crowded. That is not really this companies fault. We also got to the blowhole at low tide so there wasn’t much to see there, once again not their fault. The only thing that disappointed me was that my wife and I were looking forward to the Coffee Plant and Soap plant that is an option when you are in Haleiwa. We were not given that option like the tour said you were. When we pulled up to Haleiwa the driver said, “No one wants to go to the Soap Factory, we will all stay here.” That made me sad because I was looking forward to it and will never get that opportunity again. Other than that, I can’t knock the tour for anything else, but I also can’t rate it outstanding.

Reviewed by: Sheila
Kalina was an awesome tour guide. I apologize if I spelled his name wrong. He told us several time and it was the name of our bus . He was so informative and be so funny. He told us so much information and was patient with people who lost track of time at a few of our stops.He was friendly with everyone on the bus . I will like to book a trip with this company again and hope that I get Kalina as my tour guide.

Haleiwa Shark Tours - Best Shark Cage Diving in Hawaii with Local Expert Guides
The sharks did not disappoint. Awesome experience to see them close up.
Reviewed by: Barbara
We chose this company because of longer time in the water with the sharks and smaller group size. it was worthwhile. It was fascinating to see the sharks so close, eye to eye, and being able to recognize different animals by their scars on their body and fins.
The crew was friendly, informative and very helpful, especially for the people with less snorkel experience. Definitely recommend it for an unforgettable experience on Oahu. Having a GoPro for rent was very helpful.

Best Tour of Oahu!
Reviewed by: Alba
The most relaxing way to see the island. My husband and I enjoyed every stop. We took some incredible pictures. Our favorite was the 90 minute stop at Haleiwa where we had the best shrimp lunch we ever had, walk around the town's local shops and had a cocktail at the end! Our driver Lola was funny and knowledgeable. She deserves the driver of the year 2021 for sure!!!

Shark Dive
Reviewed by: Lindsay
I was expecting to maybe see some sharks out in the distance, but this was up close and person with about 12 Galapagos sharks!
As soon as we reached the site the sharks were already there because they have been conditioned to think they are getting food.
Our guides Erin and Jordan were amazing! Very down to earth and even gave us some recommendations on where to grab a bite to eat afterward.
This was by far the wildest thing I have ever done and HIGHLY recommend.

Amazing crew but choppy water
Reviewed by: Amanda
This was hands down the best excursion/activity we did on both Maui and Oahu. The crew, especially Erin, were super helpful and great! We saw over a dozen sharks at one time. Only thing we wish we did differently was choosing an earlier tour time so that the water was less choppy and rough. Definitely bring an underwater camera.
