Majestic Circle Island Tour, Waimea Falls Swim & Lunch - From Waikiki & Ko Olina

Great way to see the island + waterfall

Reviewed by: Yes to Hawaii

The tour was in a mini-bus rather than the larger motorcoach buses. The tour guide was very knowledgeable. I really liked the stop at Waimea Valley the best. It was nice to get out and go on a nature walk. The entire route is fully paved. If you want to swim, there's time to swim too. Lunch was at Fumi's and I'd recommend their garlic shrimp (yum!). Overall, the day was a full day so make sure you get plenty of rest the night before and wear comfortable shoes.

Royal Star Grand Circle Island Tour - East Oahu, Pali Lookout, Haleiwa & Dole

Wonderful tour to appreciate Hawaiian history and delicacies! Great for newcomers and locals alike :)

Reviewed by: Clarisse

Overall, this is the best tour for anyone wanting to see the major highlights of Oahu with wonderful opportunities to enjoy Hawaii's culinary delights. Our family has been to Oahu at least 4 times, so we thought we had seen it all, but this tour really allowed us to appreciate the beautiful island of Oahu even more. Our local tour guide, Tony, was very kind, informative and funny and really treated us like "ohana." He definitely made the tour memorable. He shared a lot of great recommendations! We loved the subtle but impactful hospitality touches of the tour, such as the free water bottle and malasada.

What we really loved about the tour was having a variety of stops that allowed you to appreciate the surrounding nature, history and food of Hawaii. There is something for everyone!

For the ocean lovers, make sure to sit on the passenger hand side of the bus because you will have ocean views throughout the journey. The stops at Hanauma Bay and the Pali really help you appreciate the lush surroundings.

For foodies, not only do you get a taste of the poi malasadas from Kamehameha Bakery during your journey, but you get to visit: 1) Tropical Farms where you can taste and purchase locally grown macadamia nuts, coffee and other island delights. Our favorite flavors of the macadamia nuts were the cinnamon glazed and maui onion. 2) Haleiwa town where you can enjoy the delicious garlic shrimp. We went to Camaron Shrimp Truck which serves theirs peeled with rice, salad and a slice of fresh pineapple. I really loved the coconut shrimp which comes with a side of the garlic sauce. The shrimp was crispy and scrumptious! 3) Dole Plantation where you can try their world famous Dole Whip! We got a cup of Dole whip with fresh pineapple topping each bec it's too good to share. Make sure to line up when you arrive because it gets busy!

For newbies, this tour is a great way to see it all in one day.

This tour is highly recommended!

  • Lovely informative tour sheet provided

  • Delicious poi malasada while enjoying the view at Hanauma Bay

  • Decadent shrimp plate from Camaron Shrimp Truck in Haliewa

  • Serene ambience of Byodo-In Temple

  • Window view of Chinaman's Hat

  • Very comfortable and spacious seats of the tour bus

Amazing tour!!!

Reviewed by: Debranma

My three teenagers and I had a great time visiting all of the places that Hawaii has to offer. Besides all the pretty places we loved learning about the history of Hawaii, our bus driver was very nice and very knowledgeable. My favorite part was definitely the breathtaken views everywhere.
I would recommend to other people doing the tour, to have good night sleep the night before, so you dont fall asleep and miss part of the fantastic ride around the Island.
The tour does have a bunch of stops and the driver will give you enough time on each one of them.

A very well conducted tour highlighting the must see's around Oah'u. Danny, our guide provided us with so much information, both historical as well as cultural, making the experience memorable, despite the rains. Our entire group felt like an extended family, long-lost cousins just Danny mentioned, who stepped up to help me when I had a minor mishap. And Danny thank you for the tasty malasadas :)

We had a group of 7 for this tour and it was perfect to see the highlights of the island, outside of Honolulu. Stephanie was a fantastic tour guide and driver!! She gave a lot of info and local insight on hang outs, fun facts, etc. I would definitely recommend this tour for anyone that wants to see more of what the island has to offer! I have so many pictures and was able to buy some of the unique foods and items Hawaii has to offer as well.

Oahu Island Guided Tour, Waimea Waterfall Swim & Dole Pineapple Farm

Wonderful Trip with Kimokeo

Reviewed by: david.han@liteon.com

Our tour guide Kimokeo Ca on 12/04/21, 7:45am-5:45pm

* Knowledgeable, friendly, energetic and also humorous guy
* My family of 3 have a wonderful time and learn all the details about culture & facts around the Oahu island.
* He manure the vehicle comfortably and safe.


But sadly, in the end, he failed to mentioned to us and stop the Hyatt Regency Waikiki Hotel where we stayed in. I have to personally go to the front asking and tell him to STOP, but it already pass a few hundred yard from the original pickup location. I am kind of reluctant to give him the gratuity in the first place but since he has been very good the whole day, so I pass it to you anyway.

Majestic Circle Island Tour, Waimea Falls Swim & Lunch - From Waikiki & Ko Olina

Don’t spend your money on this excursion!

Reviewed by: Holly Westog

It started out with the driver arriving more than an hour late. He had to use the bathroom upon arrival which delayed us by another 15 mins. We had to rush through everything g. There was no swimming at the waterfall. We walked up to it turned around and walked back. Got to Dole in time for whip to jump back in the van to air in traffic for 1.5+ hours. There was no air conditioning and the speakers didn’t work. We were HOT with no tour/history lesson. HORRIBLE!!

Dear Holly,
Your complaint is very concerning to us. We understand your disappointment and hope you will accept our sincerest apologies. It’s important to us that our guests are more than satisfied and we wanted to let you know that although this reply is late, we did go ahead and resolve the air conditioning and speaker issue immediately.
We spoke to the driver and he was provided with the necessary corrective steps to ensure this will not happen again.
Thank you for your honest feedback as we were very grateful that you joined us. We hope we have a future opportunity to show you our improvements. Until then, please stay well.

Our driver, Chelsie, was fabulous! I am giving this tour 4 stars because she deserves the stars! Very interesting and informative tour of the Island. As for the transportation…you definitely need to invest & updated the buses with better air conditioning. It was fully packed, not one spare seat on the bus…and the air conditioning was inadequate to keep the bus at a comfortable temperature.

Thank you for your honest review and for bringing the air-conditioning to our attention. We will be sure to have our maintenance crew check it out. We appreciate the time you have taken and are grateful that you joined us. We hope your visit to Oahu, the Gathering Place, was an enjoyable one.

Loved this!!

Reviewed by: Awesome day!

Cousin G was awesome! We had a great day. The morning activity we chose snorkeling. Unfortunately for others, the falls were closing on Monday’s starting THAT day due to covid restrictions, so everyone had to do snorkeling. Had some food from shrimp truck, it was okay. We stopped at a macadamia nut and coffee tasting place, that was really cool. We did kayaking for our afternoon activity- not a lot of shade so definitely bring sunscreen or wear a long sleeve top, we roasted on the river. Then we stopped in town. Was a great day on the north shore, thanks again cousin g!

Waikiki Fun Day

Reviewed by: Ollie

We took the round the Oahu Island tour. Best thing we could’ve done. The entire day we were shown fantastic sights, historic points, and history of the island. Dole PineApple Farm and the Macadamia Nut Farms were great stopping areas to have fun shopping. Please ask for the tour guide Lola- you won’t regret it as she is very knowledgeable about the entire island and it’s history. The bus today is well worth it.

Kalani was very informative and kept everyone involved. Thank you again for the memories and great times.

My whole family was so pleased we took this tour. We had the chance to enjoy a few spots and stops. Every stop is almost a food stop. Sandy ( I hope I remember her name right ) and Maus ( or mouse? ) are a good team! They are very thoughtful not only inside the bus but even when we were at our stops, going beyond what is expected of them. They made the trip lively and interesting. The lunch was delicious. I went for the garlic shrimp. Make sure you have enough cash, smaller bills I would recommend. Well planned tour.
