The stops were all great, just very crowded.
Also when one realizes that that beach is crowded and or un-swimable / snorkeling a different beach should have been selected by the experienced driver.

Had the most horrible experience ever.. horrible shuttle ride to pick up location.. sat at the pick up location for an hour before we left and started the tour .. I thought we were taking a charter bus for one… we had to stop numerous times for ppl to use the restroom… our first actual spot we ended up being stuck there for an hour because our transit had a gas leak and the driver had to go return the transit and then come all the way back to get us … our time was then shorted at every stop after that.. we were only left to snorkel for 30 mins versus 1 or 2 original time and the last stop at the door plantation we got there with only 10 mins to spare before they closed the doors on us!! Horrible horrible horrible experience!!!

During my time on the bus tour my bus driver, Schnider, was continually inappropriately touching me and talking to me in an unprofessional manner. After the tour Schnider gained my phone number from the information I provided during my registration and reached out to me. He said “ I hope I am not being unprofessional; I was wondering if you would be down for a drink later. 🙂” I am greatly uncomfortable by this and hope that nobody else has this experience.

Helani was a GREAT tour guide. We had an amazing time on our tour. We had previously taken this tour with another tour company and both were good but this one had more stops and was so enjoyable. He even took the time to make a couple of few stops (extra restroom stop when it was needed, Leonard’s Bakery food truck, and at a beach because he saw a Monk Seal that was laying on the sand) for us that put this tour over the top for us.
The only thing that we wish would have been different was the Laie Hawaii Temple of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS Church). It is beautiful but they are quite pushy about the religion and want you to watch their video (takes longer than the stop so don’t do it). The last time we stopped at the Byodo-In Temple and it was beautiful and we had hoped that it was the same temple that we were going to visit on this tour.
But overall this tour and the guide were amazing. Plenty of photo opportunities and he answered all of the questions we threw at him. Learned a lot about local culture and history.

Going around the whole island is a great introduction to Oahu. Some stops are tedious but overall you get a lot of photo stops and learn interesting facts about the history and culture. I just wish there was more time at the beach. We had 1 hour and 20 minutes to get the snorkeling gear, change, get in the beach, rinse, & change back into our clothes. I only ended up getting in the beach for like 25-30 min because of lines. Also more lunch time as there were lines and I felt rushed.

I guess you got what you paid for. Driver is funny and friendly. The snorkeling part was a bit disappointed cos the beach doesn’t have anything to see so I saw only one guest doing it. That said, we had a good time.
