Overview

During December and January, this tour begins with a sunrise viewing from a beautiful, hand-picked location, timed so you actually get to watch the sun come up over Oahu. It’s a peaceful and memorable start to the day, and a unique seasonal experience you won’t find on most tours.

After sunrise, we explore Oahu’s top highlights with a focus on comfort, culture, and connection. Our groups are intentionally small so you can ask questions, share stories, and get to know your guide and fellow travelers. You’ll feel like a welcomed guest, not part of a crowd.

At The Pineapple EXP, we believe quality matters. We might not be the biggest company on the island, but we work hard to make every guest feel cared for. If you’re visiting in winter and want a Circle Island experience with great views, good company, and genuine hospitality, this is the tour for you.

What's Included

  • Waikiki hotel pickup and drop off
  • Water
  • Whole Dole pineapple (limit one per party)
