Review of: Customised private tour of Oahu!
We had an amazing day seeing the best of Oahu with our fearless leader Bon Jovy. Mom plus 3 high school seniors looking at going to college in Hawaii. We wanted to get a feel for the island and the community and all there is to see and do. Bon Jovy was the perfect guide. He somehow managed to get to everything on our bucket list plus some. We hiked under a double rainbow, swam in a waterfall, did the rope swing into the river, visited a coffee farm, saw the surfers at Pipeline, snorkeled, saw humpback whales, a monk seal, dolphins, visited numerous film locations. And Bon Jovy happens to be a UH Monoa guy and gave us a COVID safe car tour of campus and the local community with a side of funny memories and commentary (throwing his garbage out the 10th story window into the dumpster to avoid the stairs) He also knew all the great places to eat. My favorite was the BeetBox. But he also took us to a roadside fruit stand and an amazing take out Hawaiian place. And he had numerous great suggestions for places to eat in Waikiki for the remainder of our stay. Our tour with Bon Jovy was the highlight of our vacation. We had a blast.…

Review of: Customised private tour of Oahu!
Saturday, March 14th our first day on the island was spent with Bon Jovy touring the North Shore. He hit everything on our To Do list starting with Pearl Harbor, Dole Plantation, shaved ice, Blowhole just to name a few plus many others we were unaware of that he pointed out long the way. His outgoing personality, knowledge and love for the island really made our first day incredible! We highly recommend Private Island Tours & Bon Jovy!…

Review of: Customised private tour of Oahu!
Our group of 5 had the most wonderful day! Though the weather may not have cooperated, with lots of rain throughout the day, Dan made it enjoyable. He had great things to tell us and It is easy to tell that he loves people, the island, and The cultures/history and so much more. We stopped at many wonderful places-- beaches, coffee growers, seeing the work of artisans, a fabulous lunch, music and a yummy treat at Dole. We were all completely tickled with the entire day! Then to top it off, a double rainbow followed us home.…

Thank you for your review! Very glad to hear what a wonderful day you had with Danny. Even on a rainy day, our guides are still at 100%! After all, we can't have beautiful rainbows follow you home without a little rain :) Cheers!

Review of: Customised private tour of Oahu!
This was our first trip to Hawaii as we were celebrating our 25th wedding anniversary with our whole family. From my first contact with Rita who responded quickly and was incredibly attentive, I knew we were in good hands. Our group consisted of 16 people ages ranging from 14 - 72. Damian, our tour guide, was exactly what we needed! He was knowledgeable, accommodating, super friendly and incredibly courteous! He made sure all of us had fun, he brought us to some of the best beaches (in the North Shore) we had ever seen and lunch was just incredible (as per his suggestions). This experience was one of the highlights of our trip - would absolute recommend Private Island Tours to my friends and anyone who wants to experience what Waikiki has to offer. We had a blast! Thank you again to Rita and Damian!!…
