This is a drive-by (not a stop!) on the ocean-facing outside slopes of the world-famous icon of Hawaii, Diamond Head Crater and the Amelia Earhart monument which overlooks the Pacific Ocean as the 100,000-year-old volcanic crater towers above you.*This tour does not include an entry inside the crater, only a drive-by on the outer flanks of it. Hiking to the top from inside the crater floor is included in the three-hour Diamond Head hiking tours.
This is an intriguing geographical spot where the ocean has undercut the lava and drilled a hole through to the top. On the other side of the lookout point at Halona you can watch for Green Sea Turtles which are spotted often in the emerald green waters of the " From Here To Eternity Cove" made famous by the only Oscar-winning movie made in Hawaii. **Please note, that our coastlines do have potentially dangerous rip-currents and shore breaks, so as responsible tour operators we can not allow any swimming at the Blowhole for your own safety.
We continue to visit Sandy Beach, a beautiful sandy-bottom beach that looks peaceful and serene but is known for its notoriously powerful shore-breaks.*Please note, that our coastlines and especially that particular beach have dangerous shore breaks so as responsible tour operators we can not allow any swimming at Sandy Beach for your own safety.

The Nuuanu Pali State Wayside is a lookout above the Pali Highway tunnels where youre treated to a panoramic view of Oahu's Windward side with sweeping views of Kaneohe, Kaneohe Bay and Kailua. Its also well known for strong tradewinds, forming a natural wind tunnel of sorts. It was here in 1795 that Kamehameha The Great conquered the island of Oahu in one of the bloodiest battles in Hawaiian history. Led by Kalanikupule, the defenders of Oahu were driven back up into the valley where they were trapped above the cliff. More than 400 of Kalanikupule's soldiers were driven off the edge of the cliff to their deaths 1,000 feet below.
The Temple grounds are a lushly landscaped paradise nestled in a cleft of the pali and are home to wild peacocks and hundreds of Japanese koi carp. The beautiful grounds include a large reflecting pond, meditation niches, and small waterfalls. Visitors describe this destination as beautiful, peaceful, and restful.The TV series Hawaii Five-O and Magnum, P.I. featured several episodes where the temple is incorporated into the plot.

    Mr. Kim is an AMAZING driver and Paul is so informative and definitely loves his job. We had a great job and recommend this team to everyone!!!

  • 22-Aug-2023

    I'd like to start giving high praise to our tour guide, Claudia and our bus driver,Jun(Jose)! Claudia was knowledgeable, humorous, answered questions - no matter how silly, kept everyone entertained without being too talkative or overbearing. She gave us many recommendations for us to experience beyond the tour. In fact she suggested a particular place to see seas turtles and be away from the crowded spots. My wife and I followed her advice and WOW was Claudia ever right! Now, about Jun(Jose). He demonstrated to be the most competent, pleasant, courteous, and helpful driver I have ever experienced. These two people made the 10 hour trip seem very pleasant indeed.

  • 22-Aug-2023

    Overall, the number of stops and sites were great. What was not so great is the amount of time allocated to each one. We felt rushed and were not able to do much other than take a very fast look around.

  • 22-Aug-2023

    Driver (Mr. Kim) and Paul (our tour leader) were a phenomenal team! Paul was so well versed in the Hawaiian culture and history of the island. We learned so much !!! This is a long tour but we’ll worth the money. Make sure you eat breakfast before the tour (you don’t eat lunch until 12:30). Paul is really amazing and he loves his job!!!

  • 22-Aug-2023

    All of it, Mr. Kim and Paul were amazing. The views and experiences were truly unforgettable and worth every dime and penny. You definitely get your monies worth

  • 22-Aug-2023

    10 hours is definitely long but it was so worth it doing it all in one day! Paul was an amazing tour guide and had a wealthy bank of knowledge and jokes. He was very enjoyable to be around treated us all like family. The tour itself hit all the main spots and we didn't feel rushed at all. There were enough toilet spots and the food was filling and delicious. Thank you also to Mr Kim for the smooth driving. I highly recommend this tour with Paul and Mr Kim! Mahalo

  • 22-Aug-2023

    I loved it! But just one thing which is I wish we could get off on more places (shops) . Otherwise I loved it great service definitely recommend as long as you don’t have little ones that cry or talk a lot because you do have to be quite during the tour . 9.5/10 !

  • 22-Aug-2023
