Nothing at all memorable;...
Al_A, Apr 2024
Nothing at all memorable; after [Viator] advise me of where the pick up was, what time and how long to get there, we missed the bus because their information was an accurate. I filed a complaint. They continue to tell me that they notified me of the correct pick up place time and estimated travel, but they were wrong on all three counts. They have a recorded phone call which they refused to share with me to document their incorrect information. Please share this review with your customers.
Great experience!

I had a phenomenal experience with Ian on the Real Hawaiian Circle Tour. The knowledge he has of his hometown is vast and interesting. My mom had a wonderful time, as did I. This was a definite "MUST DO" make sure it's with Ian!
Fun Tour@
Shelia_G, Mar 2024
All of it! Loved the driver. He was well informative and funny at the same time. Got everyone involved in conversations. There was a big difference between the start and end of the tour. We didn't want the tour to end!
Amazing experience
Joe_L, Mar 2024
Before I say anything about the places we went, I just have to say that IAN was the best tour guide. So friendly and told us so much about the island and the culture, and just such a funny guy. Really a gem. The tour was also very nice, got to hit up a bunch of "must see" sights all in a day, and got to get a sense of what the whole island looks like. Only gripe was that the pickup time was about 40 minutes before the scheduled departure, but in the end it worked out well given the heavy traffic in the early morning, and we got back to Waikiki with time to spare. Highly recommend.
Awesome Guide, Incredible Views
Lowgun_H, Feb 2024
Ian was a FANTASTIC tour guide. He was incredibly knowledgeable, engaging, and funny. We got to see many breathtaking landscapes throughout. Ian kept the pace moving like a pro; during the short stretches of the drive without scenery, he did a stellar job filling those points in with interesting stories and history of the land around us. Thanks to this trip, I was able to learn a lot about Oahu in a short amount of time. 10/10 would recommend.

Auntie Mary
carolyn_r, Oct 2023
Auntie Mary was very knowledgeable of the island. She was very personable by sharing her life experiences she had on the island! She recently lost her husband after 58yrs of marriage! It was like coming back 2 visit family after being gone 4 awhile!
Nice , scenic shopping trip
WENDY_L, Oct 2023
Was just a drive around the island . We got a few scenic stops , but it was mostly a shopping trip. The driver was very funny and knowledgeable . She was a native, so she was able to share a lot of information.
Must Do Tour
Sue_M, Jun 2023
Good time for pick up . Only a small group tour . Very personal & friendly . Driver & off Sider ( sorry forget names ) were amazing . Plenty of history about Oahu & Hawaii in general . Time went very quickly which was unfortunate. We were not too rushed at our stops either . Most enjoyable & highly recommend
Great trip
Angela_C, Apr 2023
Prompt Pick up. Very friendly and informative driver. Some fantastic views all along the route with some stops along the way to take photos. Great trip.
My tour got canceled not my fault
Precious_S, Mar 2023
They canceled the tour at the last min, then wanted me to pay for another tour. I can’t really give a good review especially if it wasn’t my fault. They should provide people with options on rebooking no extra charge. What is a $10-$30 difference
Great Island Tour
Barbara_D, Mar 2023
Our tour guide was very knowledgeable and friendly. She answered all our questions and was a great sport.

You take a reservation, issue tickets but Viator doesn’t communicate that to the 3rd party
Carrie_K, Oct 2022
My issue is not with Real Hawaii Circle Island tour. My issue is with Viator. You take a reservation, we receive confirmation and actual tickets but you don’t communicate that to the actual tour company and no one picks us up on our original tour date Wednesday at the meeting point.
Response from Host, Nov 2022
Aloha Carrie! Though there was an issue with the pickup location we are glad our team was able to work with you to get you all taken care of. We hope that we can get your feedback on the actual tour rather than your experience with Viator. Thank you again for being awesome and great to work with. Mahalo!
