Overview

You will spend your selected tour for about 8 hours, riding in a private, air-conditioned, new Mercedes mini van. What makes this tour unique is your 100% guaranteed COMFORT - it is a private tour (minimum of 2) because the vehicle is reserved ONLY for your family or group. Usually, most of the tours on Oahu are open for 25ppl and up, big commercial buses, the drivers stop in multiple locations to pick up and drop off all passengers. We won't lose your vacation time in driving around town or have you wait on line in overpopulated, beaten path stops, filled with tour buses and crowds. We offer you a PRIVATE experience. Anywhere we stop we can spend as much time as you would like to: your schedule is your own, and you will get to spend a relaxed, comfortable day around the island of Oahu and see the incredible tropical nature, wild beaches, ancient culture and Hawaiian history.
