About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- michaelbW2642MG0 contributionsTouring Hawaii in a 4 door convertibleMark was fantastic. He took us to places that normally would be difficult or unusual to get to and gave us as much time as we wanted at each destination. His knowledge of the island, the surroundings and the history of the people were amazing and fascinating and if we could have we would have extended the tour for longer. The cherry on top was the beautiful 4 door Chrysler 300C convertible that Mark had purposely modified to do these tours. Great tour. Great man.Written September 30, 2023
- abrahamm5270 contributionsWonderful tour. Use him.Mark was incredible. I don’t know how else to describe our experience. He went above and beyond what anyone could have expected. We did a late afternoon tour , booked at the last minute and Mark surprised us with such an easygoing, friendly, super fun, informative, accommodating tour. Should we come back to Oahu we will use his services again and anyone booking with him is in for a real treat.Written August 13, 2023
- Jo C0 contributionsCruising Oahu's North ShoreWe were not sure what sites to visit, we asked Mark to choose for us. He did not disappoint. We got to see so many sites, including Dole plantation, Turtle Beach, North Shore. We stopped off at multiple places and learned a lot of things. Had lunch at a popular Shrimp Truck, which was delicious. It was a great day out.Written May 14, 2023
- RR4100 contributionsPerfect for our needsSteve is a wonderful guide. He really listened to us while planning and was super flexible. He found great spots that were accessible to my 85 year old father whose mobility is limited. We had a great time!Written October 10, 2022
- Dawn C0 contributionsBest private tour.Originally told it was a two door Sebring convertible but was pleasing surprised that it was a four door convertible. Our driver was outstanding and personable. He knew the history, language, and places. He took us to some fantastic beaches and eats. My favorite was the fried banana, he said I wouldn’t regret it but he was wrong. I regret not buying more it was absolutely delicious. A private service worth every dollar and a definite do over!Written September 8, 2022
- PNGNATHANFULLER0 contributionsBest, tour of Ohau. Hands downThis tour is amazing! Mark’s knowledge of the island is very deep. He knows all of the goods places to stop, and which ones to pass on. Most of the locals at the good places to stop know and appreciate Mark. He has lots of information about Hawaii both geographically and historically. He also has lots of personal hands on experience from living on the island, and has life stories to tie in throughout the experience.Written January 30, 2022
- 21breaunap0 contributionsAmazing Experience!!!Amazing experience!!! Mark made our trip to Hawaii a memorable one. He was so sincere and ensured that our experience was maximized within our time window. He was knowledgeable and knew all of the local loopholes in the area. Great conversation and excellent service. He came prepared with everything we would possibly need! We toured the Pearl Harbor, Dole Plantation (life changing pineapple ice cream) and Waimea Bay Area. We hiked the Botanical Gardens and swam under the famous waterfall. We also had a great time at the beach and conquered the rock of Waimea Bay. We had dinner at famous, Chef Guy Fieri’s (highly recommended top 25 food truck pick) Big Wave’s Shrimp Truck. They had THE BEST garlic shrimp in Hawaii. Mark ended our tour with dessert at Leonard’s Bakery. Best donuts in town! We look forward to our next trip to Hawaii. Only next time, we will be booking this service more than once ;)Written June 6, 2021
- frequendtraveler3330 contributionsHighly recommended !What an amazing tour ! Mark drove us to some of the most memorizing outlooks on Oahu. The car is beautiful. Highly recommended !Written January 25, 2021
- brooklynjeanne0 contributionsBEST CUSTOMIZED TOUR ESPECIALLY IF YOU HAVE SPECIAL NEEDS!I have very unique special needs since I have several physical limitations. I had my colon removed so need to constantly go to the bathroom. I also have herniated discs in my neck and back and arthritis in both knees so I cannot stand for an extended period of time and can't walk too far or too fast. I shared these concerns with Mark and told him that I had been on the all island tour several times and cannot walk to see some of the sites they sttp at in the allotted time so he adjusted the tour to places that they may not cover with the general tours and allowed multiple rest stops and catered the trip to go to several shaved ice places and shrimp truck and the north shore. He also allowed me all the time I needed to enjoy each location for as long as I needed. Mark also has knowledge of several "secret" locations and a lot of interesting stories and history that is not common knowledge. I was so happy with my tour and would recommend Mark to everyone. It is totally worth the price of admission and I would definitely repeat the experience again.Written February 17, 2020
- curlyb20140 contributionsYou have to get out of Waikiki to see the real OahuMark is a gentleman, is car is pristine, the service he offers is second to none and his knowledge of the island is above and beyond. Without Mark we would not have seen the true beauty of the island. We did the 9 hour north circle tour and yes there are cheaper alternatives but don’t waste your money pay that bit more and get the true Aloha Spirit at your own pace.

- AussiePowell0 contributionsGreat day touring with Hawaii Convertible ToursMark collected us from our hotel on time in his beautiful, clean convertible. He took us on a tour of Honolulu then onto Pearl Harbour. Our short visit was enough to give us some perspective. We then headed up north stopping to try some Malasada's from the food trucks at the premium outlets, Dole Plantation, a macadamia farm, coffee farm and Haleiwa. Our favourite place was Waimea Falls which we would never have gone to if it wasn't for us doing this tour. Mark ensured we were all good and then we met up at an agreed time and enjoyed a beautiful walk and the best swim ever. On the way back to our hotel, we stopped at so many beautiful beaches. We chose to tour with Hawaii Convertible Tours as we wanted to see more of the island, not just Waikiki. There is so much to explore and we would've liked to see more but 8 hours goes fast and if you want to see more you would need more time. Mark was a very safe driver and took great care of us. Thanks Mark, we had a great day. Regards, Maureen & Lauren, Joy & AmyWritten December 7, 2019
- Ozzy M0 contributionsBEST TOUR IN OAHU HANDS DOWN - THE EXPERIENCE OF A LIFE TIME!If you're looking to do any tour in Oahu, this is by far THE BEST tour that Oahu has to offer and it's not even close. I promise you that you'll have the experience of a life time. Mark is an exceptional tour guide who is extremely knowledgable across many different areas from Hawaiian history and culture to general day to day life. He is an overall great guy who tailors your experience based on the places you'd like to see or visit. We saw a vast amount of different sites on our all-day 8 hour Oahu Circle Island tour from the popular well-known sites to a few breath taking hidden gems all in a super hip and modern convertible. The convertible makes the experience ten times greater. It really heightens the vibe and makes you feel like you're one with the land. We've had the opportunity to go on other tours and none have been this phenomenal. So good, that we decided to do the tour again to visit different sites the next day. Oahu has so much to offer and this tour is as good as it gets!Written September 6, 2019
- JBrucie0 contributionsFantastic Tour. Wind in Your Hair.This is an absolutely fabulous way to see the island of Oahu. Mark, our driver, picked us up at our hotel in a shiny red convertible. We were able to say where we wanted to go or we could let Mark choose. We did a combination of both and so glad we did. We would never have chosen to eat from food trucks or try various local specialities. Nothing disappointed. We visited tourist hot spots including Pearl Harbour and the Dole plantation. Our driver acted as our personal guide sharing his knowledge and personal experiences, with a good dose of humour. He took us to a variety of places, some well known, some were a surprise. He also knew the best photo opportunities and happily, and patiently, took the photos. Pricing was reasonable and the personal service was amazing. I highly recommend this company for a great day exploring the Oahu outside Waikiki.Written May 23, 2019
- juangva680 contributionsHawaii from ColombiaVery good way to know Honolulu, Luxury and very confortable. We take the South East point (yellow route), so nice and to much to see. But the most important was Mark atention and kind tratament.Written May 2, 2019
- GavnRuth0 contributionsA great way for everyone to enjoy Oahu !So we're a family of 3 that wanted to do a circle tour of the North Shore on our own time and see the things that most interested us. We wanted everyone to be able to enjoy the scenery of the island, and the majestic views as we travelled, and you cant really do that while driving, so we chose to do it, but in a convertible, and have Mark drive for us. The cost was comparable to others, but we were in the comfort of a 4 Door Convertible, and on our own schedule without having to worry about anyone else on a "Tour". Our driver Mark is a very friendly and personable kind of guy who is extremely knowledgeable and accommodating of your requests. He knows the places to stop for all your requests such as the Kō Hana Rum Distillers, The Dole Plantation, The Coffee Plantation, Leonard's Bakery Truck where we stopped for Hot Malasadas, and some of the best Shrimp Trucks on the North Shore. We stopped in at a secluded beach and were just a few feet away from sea turtles while also visiting great surf beaches and also stopping in at Teds Bakery for some Chocolate Haupia Cream Pie (Yum !!!) On our way back we swung past the Kualoa Ranch (without going in) and saw some of the best scenery on the island. Our tour lasted 9 hrs but the day went by very quickly and Mark was very professional, chatty, and informative about his knowledge of the Island. I would highly recommend booking a tour with Mark as part of your Hawaii experience.Written April 12, 2019

Mark picked me up directly at my hotel, and began the most memorable tour I have ever been on. The 6 hours were filled with fun facts and made Hawaiian history come alive by the stories and places we visited. It was exiting to watch a shark swimming next to surfers and dolphins playing in a cove. At sunset we drove to the top of a ridge and watched the sun set over Honolulu. After some fantastic local cuisine he dropped my back at my hotel. I had no worries, he did the driving and took care of me every step of the way. All I had to do was sit back and enjoy. I have taken tours all around the world and this was by far the most interesting and personalized tour I have ever had. I would do it again tomorrow in a heartbeat.

I took the tour with 3 adults and myself. The car was comfortable and the driver/tour guide Mark was very safe and knowledgeable. There were things that we knew we wanted to see as well as things we didn’t. Mark was very accommodating and well prepared. He offered water and had stops planned for restroom breaks which were obviously necessary at safe, clean areas. The circle tour is highly recommended.

I took this tour with my parents. We had done a circle island tour but wanted to spend more time on the North Shore. Mark didn't disappoint. His communication was top notch, from the first time I sent an enquiry through to taking the tour. When we set out Mark asked us what we wanted to see and made suggestions along the way. We loved seeing Pali lookout and the rum tasting was epic!
Mark had interesting tidbits to share along the way and we learned a lot. I particularly enjoyed seeing the stairway to heaven accompanied by Led Zeppelin and the other great song choices along the way! Seeing a bit more of Oahu in a convertible was awesome and I can't lie, we felt pretty darn cool!
Thank you for such a wonderful day Mark, it was an absolute pleasure and I would highly recommend this tour to anyone!

Quite simply stated, a fantastic experience….Mark was extraordinarily friendly, knowledgeable, and keen on ensuring we got to see and do what we wanted during the course of what ended up being a 7 hour tour. From our first stop (a food truck run by Leonard’s Bakery) to the phenomenal views as we circumnavigated Oahu, we enjoyed ourselves and the information/facts Mark provided along the way. We wished we’d had more time. Suffice to say, we’ll be back and will definitely ask Mark to guide us on our next Oahu exploration.

The pickup in front of our hotel was in time as schedule. Our family of 4 perfectly accommodate in the big, clean, shining red Chrysler convertible sedan. Our driver- tour guide Mark is a perfect gentleman, knowledgeable and with a fine sense of humor. We discussed the route and stops according to our booked time and own interest. We visited a lot of interesting and beautiful places. This is a perfect way to visit most of the island in a private and worrying free way. Made us feel VIP. I highly recommend this tour. An excellent value for money.

Mark is Retired Navy, an Author, and was also a Missionary in Papua New Guinea. Mark new an impressive amount of factoids regarding all the site we visited and saw along the way of our tour. Mark gave space where space was needed, and intuitively new when it was not. Initially, my 35 year old son did not want to take this tour believing that it would be dull riding in a car for six hours. He said he was pleasantly surprised to the contrary. He and his girlfriend of 30 years thoroughly enjoyed the whole trip with Mark as our guide as much as I did. We plan on booking a future tour with Mark when we return to Hawaii (next year).

Fantastic tour and well worth doing. Mark was great guy and very good host. He made up our day to suit us with mixture of site seeing / beaches. Stopped at places we would otherwise miss and not stop at so we’ll worth booking to see local areas / food etc. We stayed on an extra few hours and Mark was very accommodating
We had a great time and would book again next time to explore the south shore.

I highly recommend a day touring Oahu with Mark. He is friendly & knowledgeable of local facts & history. Marks’ convertible car is comfortable & a pleasure to tour the island in. I would definitely do another of Marks tours without hesitation if we return to Hawaii. My mother had a fantastic day in the car with Mark.

It only allows you to select 1 adult. Is that because it is a group cost or does each passenger pay the fee? I have 3 in my party
Written February 10, 2019
Selecting 1 Adult means 1 Tour (Car and driver.) so the price is the same for 1 up to 4 passengers therefore the more passengers the better the deal.
