While I very much enjoyed my circle tour with Rocky on the 18th and he was very informative, they need a massive policy change. If someone has an active cough, they shouldn't be allowed on the bus that seats 25 people. We were in close quarters from 6:45 AM - 4 PM and this old woman in front of me from Georgia was coughing the entire trip. Naturally she also sat at our table for lunch at Pounders at PCC where she told us she had just been on a cruise where COVID and a sore throat was being passed back and forth, but "it was fine because she was on day 2 of (her) Zpack." Guess who got a sore throat ON MY BIRTHDAY a few days later?! Me. Now I'm up writing this review at 3:45 AM because I can't sleep with this sore throat. Just what everyone wants on their vacation. Hawai'i is expensive to get to from everywhere and being sick on vacation is not cool.I don't care if you get on the bus with a mask, are on meds, whatever. If you have an active cough, you should be required to reschedule and be barred from riding for the health and safety of every other customer.September 2024.

How did we cram so much into 1 day?!?! Such an epic tour filled with so many stops. Paul is an AMAZING tour guide. Kept us on pace and laughing. This also quickly becomes a foodie tour so come hungry with cash as not all stops take card. Highly recommend if you want to see a lot quickly.

We just finished our Circle Island & Hidden Gems tour with Cousin Charlie, and we had an amazing time! Charlie took such great care of us and was so informative with all his stories and trivia about the island. He treated us like Ohana and was so patient, making sure no one was left behind.Even the other tour guides from different Go Tours buses were saying we were with the best tour guide in the company! So glad we were on his bus today!

I booked Go Tours Hawaii at Waikiki with Makani who works at the Go Tours Hawaii storefront off Kalakaua Ave in Waikiki. Makani is your man! We booked the Island Tour and had John the driver and Noah our tour guide who both were FANTASTIC! John was such a safe and great driver and Noah was the truth! I appreciated how he was able to balance the light hearted fun, information, and kept it real with Hawaii history. We learned some fun myths and he even shared some personal stories of family and friends which truly made us feel more connected. The personal touch was great. Noah was also very hands on with the stops we had and would help out vendors who had DELICIOUS snacks and foods! Do not pass up on the plantain lumpias! WOW!! I wish I bought more!We felt taken care of and enjoyed every bit of the mini adventures of the Island Tours with the Waimea waterfall swim. The pit stops were super fun and it helped me navigate where to spend more time at later on my trip. Thank you Go Tours Hawaii! I'm recommending everyone to you!

A Five-Star Experience with GoTours Hawaii - A Must-Do in WaikikiIf you're looking for an exceptional way to explore Oahu, look no further than GoTours Hawaii, the only locally owned tour company in Waikiki. Our experience with them was nothing short of extraordinary, and we're deeply grateful for their unparalleled professionalism, timeliness, and best-in-class customer service.From the moment the tour began, it was clear we were in for something special. The team arrived early, patiently waiting to ensure everyone was comfortably onboard. Their warm, personable approach and outstanding interpersonal skills immediately made us feel at home, setting the tone for a day filled with meaningful connections and unforgettable moments.We embarked on the Circle Island Oahu Tour, a breathtaking journey around the entire island. Every stop was thoughtfully planned and accompanied by rich historical insights, transforming the trip into an educational and immersive experience. The state-of-the-art shuttle bus enhanced this journey with its interactive features. The large video screen at the front displayed engaging footage and content that aligned seamlessly with each destination, providing a unique, almost interactive experience. It felt like the perfect blend of storytelling and sightseeing.Lunch was a delightful treat! Though it was self-pay, the experience was worth every penny. We dined on the freshest shrimp, raised locally at a nearby farm, adding an authentic flavor to the day. At every stop--whether it was the macadamia nut farm, the local fruit stand, or the charming restaurant--the warmth and friendliness of the locals added to the magic of the tour.John, our driver, was the epitome of professionalism, navigating the island with the skill and care of a seasoned chauffeur. Eddie, our tour guide, elevated the experience even further. Born and raised on the island, Eddie shared heartfelt stories of his childhood, his love for the ocean, and his passion for surfing. His personal connection to the land and water gave us a deeper appreciation of Oahu's beauty and culture.This tour is truly a five-star experience. It's more than just sightseeing--it's a journey into the heart of Oahu, brought to life by a team dedicated to providing a white-glove, hometown experience. GoTours Hawaii exceeded every expectation, and I cannot recommend them highly enough.If you're visiting Waikiki, this is an absolute must-do. Don't miss the chance to explore the island with GoTours Hawaii. It's an adventure that will stay with you forever!

I do NOT recommend Go Tours Hawaii. I attended the tour "Hidden Gems of Oahu with Byodo In and Turtle Spotting" with Go Tours Hawaii using the Go City pass. I thought that this tour would be a great way to see the island without the stress of driving myself on unfamiliar roads, but it ended up not being worth the time or money. We spent only 5-20 minutes at each location and the tour ended 2 hours earlier than the Go City/Go Tours confirmation stated, arriving in Waikiki at 3 pm rather than 5 pm. The tour guide did not give us enough time to appreciate the temple or sight a turtle on the beach. However, we did spend 35+ minutes in a parking lot that smelled strongly of propane fuel waiting for everyone to purchase (and tour guide to receive free) Leonard's malasadas, a stop not on the itinerary. We also spent over an hour in various gift shops. I understand that some stops are just for a quick photo or to look at the view, but I would have appreciated more time at the Temple, Sunset Beach and the turtle-spotting beach. 20 minutes is not enough time to walk to the location from the parking spot and explore (even less time if you need to use the restroom.) It also would have been nicer to visit one of Oahu's botanical gardens rather than the many boring gift shops.The Go City pass cost over $100 per day and since Go City stated that the tour ended at 5 pm and that you cannot schedule the luau the same night, we had not scheduled any additional Go-City activities that afternoon. So it cost over $100 for this tour. Expensive and a waste of time.

We did a Circle Island Tour with Waimea Valley. Kanamu was our guide and Eric, our driver. They were super fun and so very knowledgeable. The drive was safe & comfortable and the stops were perfectly timed. 10/10 would recommend!
