We had a smaller sized tour bus (due to COVID) which is actually preferable as it allowed us to have more conversations as a smaller group and made the experience more enjoyable. Our guide Kimo was very engaging, inviting questions, making jokes, and knew a lot about Hawaii.

It was a beautiful tour around the island. Our driver, Cousin Guy, was extremely knowledgeable about the history of the island, and he did it in a funny way that kept everyone’s attention.

Loved this tour! Bus was very comfortable and the driver was very nice. Would absolutely do this tour again. Only drawback was not enough time at the Dole Plantation.

I feel like I was rushed a lot of the times and wish i had more time at each stop..

Amazing experience! Totally recommend, my tour guide kimo was amazing
