Overview

This private half-day tour delivers Oahu’s most iconic sights in a streamlined, itinerary designed for travelers who want to see more without losing their whole day. You’ll visit stunning coastal lookouts, dramatic mountain passes, and one of the island’s most famous
landmarks — all with the personal attention and flexibility of a private guide.
Capture panoramic views from Diamond Head Lookout, take in the explosive ocean spray at the Halona Blowhole, and experience the powerful winds and history of Nuʻuanu Pali Lookout.
Along the lush windward coast, you’ll make a quick stop at Kualoa Regional Park for unbeatable
views of the Koʻolau Mountains and Chinaman’s Hat — one of Oahu’s most photogenic spots.
The tour also includes a stop at the Dole Plantation, where you'll have just enough time to grab a souvenir or a pineapple treat before heading back to Waikiki. This route hits the highlights while keeping the pace tight — ideal for travelers who want maximum
experience in minimal time.

Cool Hawaii wants to make your searches as relevant as possible. That's why we offer many ways to help you find the right experiences for you.
