    Did the North Shore Adventure tour recently and would not recommend it. The only real attraction on the tour was the Waimea Falls and we spent an hour or so there (for reference the entire tour took ~8 hours from pickup to drop off). The bulk of the time was spent riding around the island in the tour bus which was pretty cramped and not very well cleaned/ sanitized). The tour guide did provide some helpful information about the island. We stopped at multiple farms that sold coffee or macadamia nuts - there was not much to do or see at those farms so the main point was probably to induce purchases. Although masks were required on the bus, for some reason the tour guide was not wearing a mask. Several of the passengers were not wearing their masks consistently and there were extended periods of time when their masks were completely off. Lunch wasn’t included in the cost of the tour, which would have been fine except the place we were brought to for lunch was definitely overpriced and not great quality. The shrimp didn’t seem super fresh and was overcooked. The peel was still on so it was a hassle to eat. The tour was supposed to include a visit to Sunset Beach but we were told it was no longer on the itinerary during the tour. Had we known prior to departure we would not have participated in the tour at all. Overall the tour was not nearly as fun or satisfying as the Groupon marketing made it seem. Considering the limited amount of time we had to spend on our trip to Hawaii, the fact that we wasted so much time on this tour bothered me more than anything else. Bottom line is rent a car if you want to see the North Shore.

    We had an excellent experience with this tour and had a great guide/host in Ian. He was incredibly knowledgeable, but also casual in a way that felt like you had a friend on the island showing you around. The sites AND the bites were great - I didn't anticipate getting as full as I did. I recommend taking this tour on one of your first days on Oahu so you can get a lay of the land before exploring on your own during the rest of your trip.

    We did the North Shore Tour with Keith and it was amazing! Our day was not super packed so it went pretty chill and relaxing. We were able to enjoy and appreciate each stop. The highlight is definitely the water falls. It was magical! Keith was superb! Very accommodating and helpful. Again, mahalo!

    Sights & Bites Tour was fantastic. Johnny, a native Hawaiian, shared history about Hawaii, & was very entertaining & engaging as well. We highly recommend this tour, especially at the beginning of your vacation in Hawaii.

    AMAZING tour . The highlight of our trip. Saw so much of the island an our guide, kenny, even took us 2 hours over our time so we could swim with sea turtles, which wasnt even part of the normal tour. Would highly recommend. An kenny, if you're reading this the brothers from washington say thanks again. You were wonderful.

    Amazing tour we did the sightseeing with bites and snorkeling. The guide was amazing Cousin Kalei was entertaining as well as knowledgeable. The food stop during the trip was excellent and the stops on the way were really cool. It made our first time visiting a experience we will never forget.

    Our guide was incredibly informative and interacted with the guests well and often. He remembered EVERYONES names (group of 23). The sights were beautiful and the stops for food were abundant. Would highly recommend

    We just came back from the Sights and Bites tour and we had a wonderfull day. The tourguide, Darren a.k.a. Uncle D. was amazing. If you book a tour, try to get this guide. The amount of information he has is just amazing! Besides that he is an walking wikipedia full off Hawaiian Passion for his Island, he is really friendly, funny and he made us all feel like Ohana!

    Our Sites & Bites is great a very memorable experience. Kaeli was a great tour guide, very knowledgeable, and witty. He had our purple donuts for Leonard's for us. They were delicious! It's worth it just to see the sites the different beautiful beaches of Ohau, the beautiful lush mountains. We enjoyed all of our stops, especially Dole Plantation, the fruit stand with fried bananas, meeting the Pineapple King, and Fumis for shrimp dinners. My only regret is that after a full day of touring and eating, I mistakenly got off the bus without tipping our wonderful guide, Kaeli. I felt so bad that I got up the next morning and returned to ABC store #83 at 7am to find him. Unfortunately, he didn't have a pickup there that morning. Kaeli, if you see this, I apologize.

    We used Aloha Hawaii Tours for the Sites and Bites tour, and it was incredible. Our guide, Sai, was very knowledgeable, funny and kind. The lunch and snacks along the way were delicious! I highly recommend scheduling this toward the beginning of your stay. This tour will show lots of places you may want to add to your itinerary that you may not have known about before!

    We travel the world and do Tours, Alex is by far my favorite guide yet. He had so much information on the Plants, Animals and historical grounds truly was a blessing being with him on such a beautiful island! Now we know who to call when we come back thanks Alex your the BEST!!!!!!!!!

  • 4/5 Marina M. 2 years ago on Google
    The only reason I’m not giving 5 stars is because the waterfalls were below average. They are not high nor full of water. It was disappointing. The other disappointment was that we were rushed at the other stops. 15-20 mins tops at each location. Other than these 2 issues I really enjoyed the road trip. The bus driver gave good interesting information regarding the island and local areas. The actual scenery at the waterfalls was amazing and the waterfalls time was the longest around 2 hrs. This was nice!

    The family enjoyed and lived the tour. Our tour guide Shelly was amazing and very caring. The whole bus has a blast. We will recommend Aloha Hawaii Tours to our friends and family. They treat us as their “Ohana” and that is the spirit of Hawaii. Thank you for an awesome experience.

  • 5/5 Rachel R. 2 years ago on Google
    Ian is an amazing guide...his knowledge of the islands and it's history is the best in the business. The sites and bites tour was so much fun and ended to quickly...the tour bus was great they picked us up at a spot not far from our hotel. It was a great day well spent and I would recommend this tour to all.

  • 2/5 Anu E. 2 years ago on Google
    Chose this travel with the understanding of easier transport to the Arizona sight yet took forever to get on the "taxi". Stated that it was going to start at 8.00 am yet pick up was at 8.30 and the entire trip was prolonged until 2 pm with no break for food or anything. Probably best to just take a trip to the Pearl harbor on your own.

  • 5/5 cindy g. 2 years ago on Google
    Ian was an amazing tour guide, very informative, humorous, prompt and got our group to each destination in a very timely matter. He gave us very interesting information about the Island and answered any questions we had. The tour in itself is absolutely amazing and the places we stopped at were breathtaking! Snorkeling is a must when you book this tour, we were lucky enough to see a Sea Turtle and even a Monk Seal.I would recommend this tour to any of my family and friends that visit here!!
