Hi5 Tours Hawaii

Yianni is amazing guide. We booked a private tour just 2 days prior. My wife saw Hi5 in Facebook- Aulani group and can do custom tours. She DM and got a live response. We opted for a light tour, local goat farm, fruit stand, Weimea valley (waterfall), local food trucks, a surf beach and Cacao and coffee refinery. This is kid friendly especially the small one wanted to be carried instead of walking. Yianni knows the people in all areas, able to have a deeper history and great understanding. It's like a live Nat Geo and Anthony Bordain explanation level. It's a great experience.Normally, i hate tours as the guide just point to the local spots and that's it. It's no different from a Google search. Hi5, and Yianni in particular change this by having that connection to the local people. That is the magic. We did talk a bit of business and I think incorporating this idea to a wider audience is perfect. I wish him the best.

Hands down, the best money I've ever spent was to have Hi5 Tours in charge of a full day of play for my daughter and I. Their hospitality is top tier and thoughtful, their knowledge of the island is priceless, and the experience was life changing. Don't hesitate to reach out to Hi5 if you're planning to visit the big island.

Start to finish was an amazing day. Ryan, our driver, was super knowledgeable, funny and there for us all day. Bus was comfy and well air conditioned. 100% would recommend Hi5!! 100% would ask for Ryan again by name.

Our family had an amazing guided tour with Hi5! From amazing sights to delicious foods to sea turtles! Our tour guide and driver were friendly, knowledgeable, and helpful. If you're looking for a low stress way to see Oahu, give Hi5 a call!

Relaxing no rush layed back enjoyable day- stop at Lenard's for famous pastry's, we went to old sugar mill where they make coffee & chocolate, stopped at secluded beach & saw a sea turtle in the distance it was quite relaxing beautiful. Trip to Waimea Valley Visitor Center and walked to the water fall, were there was enough time if anyone wanted to take a dip, then we stopped at food trucks where we had time to walk around and get something to eat, the last stop was at the KoHana rum factory for tasting. - we had a small group of only 6 unlike some of the tours we have been on with lots of people and felt rushed- Hi5 Tours gave us the plenty of time to Relax and enjoy.

I had the most amazing time on the Northshore Food & Waterfall tour with Auntie Kelly as our guide! She was so informative and knowledgeable about the history and infrastructure of Oahu, not only sharing information on the sights within the itinerary, but also on many things we saw on the way-- such as trees, buildings and monuments for historical figures.. When I told her this tour and my trip was to celebrate my birthday, she got a box of pastries (not the malasadas that we had earlier in the day which were on the itinerary) and sang happy birthday to me.The tour itself was also amazing. We stopped by Leonard's for malasadas (the Li Hing Mui one I had was SO GOOD.) before heading to Waimea Valley and hiking through the botanical garden to the waterfall. It started raining while we were there, but that too showed us another part of the beauty of the botanical garden. We then made a pit stop at Hale'iwa Beach Park and got to see a turtle that was beached & moving towards the water. We went to lunch (I got a poke bowl from Poke For The People in Hale'iwa and the fish was so fresh, DELICIOUS. you have to get the kimchi & pickled ginger [can't remember if it was ginger, onion, or something else. it was pickled tho]). Went to Tropical Farms Macadamia Nuts then to the Old Sugar Mill Brand Coffee & Chocolate for macadamia nut, coffee & chocolate samples. then finally stopped at Kohana Distillery for rum samples!!! One thing about me is that I'm a foodie, and my stomach definitely leads the way when I'm traveling. I hadn't heard of a food tour before learning about Hi5, and knew I had to book with them. Auntie Kelly was the best tour guide I've ever had, and I will definitely request to do a tour with her when I come back to Oahu!Mahalo to Auntie Kelly and HI5 Tours for making my birthday trip one to remember!!

If you want a no stress, fun tour of the island this is the way to go!!! Yani was our guide today. We had two adults and four children 6-8. He was engaging, Knowledgeable and fun. He knew the locals and everyone working at the sights we stopped at. He treated them all with aloha, and we were never made to feel like howlie tourists. He joined in the fun with us ( even giving a piggy back ride to a tired kid). Took pictures of our group. He knew the best food trucks to stop at that had a selection for everyone. Next time I visit I'll use them again to see the rest of the island!!!!

Our family is extremely grateful for the fun and memorable tour from Yianni and Kevin. They greeted us with leis and took really nice pictures of us free of charge. The Malasadas from Leonard's and exotic Hawaiian fruits was a plus as well. We also appreciated their flexibility in the stops and itinerary.In our full day tour, we got to visit Tantalus Point, Green World Coffee, Dole Plantation, Waimea Falls, North shore food trucks, a beach to see the turtles and Matsumoto shaved ice.The tour was informative too with fun Hawaiian music playing on the background.I highly recommend booking this tour! It was a great, efficient and relaxing way to explore Oahu in a day. The cost of the tour definitely outweigh the stress of planning the itinerary ourselves. It is also a great way to support the local businesses in Hawaii!

My best friend and I were planning our recent trip to Oahu and we came across Hi5 Tours. We weren't familiar with the area and wanted to see some spots away that only locals would know. From booking to drop-off, everything was seamless and so easy! We would highly recommend Yanni and his company and will definitely book on any future trips. Yanni is extremely kind, generous and just all around a great human being. He is very engaging with every one on the tour and within minutes you feel as if you are with a lifelong friend. We did the full-day tour which started with the Botanical Gardens/Waterfall then off for the yummy food trucks!! Get the pineapple shrimp, it does not disappoint! After we ate too much we went to a beautiful almost private beach spot and did some seashell and sea glass hunting then it was off to the rum distillery. Everything was timed perfectly and Yanni is so knowledgable. If you are thinking about a trip to Oahu, you cannot miss a chance to hang with Yanni, it was a wonderful experience.

Booked a private tour for 40th birthday for brother in law and the family and it was great! Ryan was a very attentive informative tour guide. Great to have a nice local show you the ins and outs of Hawai'i. I would highly recommend this tour!
