Our Highest Rated Full Day Itinerary

Our van will arrive at 7am for pickup at your lodging, with a local guide ready to set you up for an unforgettable day exploring the island. Start time is customizable but we recommend 7am to beat the crowds.
If you’re staying outside the Waikiki area (such as Ko Olina, Turtle Bay, or another nearby location), please call (808) 777-8314
#2 Diamond Head Lookout
High above Oahu’s southern coastline, Diamond Head Lookout delivers sweeping ocean views, crashing waves, surfers, and humpback whales in the winter months. Note: this is not the 1.7 mile crater hike. We drive you to the lookout on the back side for the view without the climb.
#3 Halona Blowhole
The Halona Blowhole is a natural wonder formed by ancient lava tubes. When waves crash into the rock, water shoots dramatically into the air, sometimes reaching heights of 30 feet.
#4 Eternity Beach Lookout
Tucked beside the Halona Blowhole, Eternity Beach is a small hidden cove made famous by the classic movie From Here to Eternity. With its golden sand, turquoise water, and dramatic lava rock cliffs, it’s a picture-perfect spot that feels like a secret getaway.
#5 Makapu’u Lookout
Makapuʻu Lookout offers one of the most breathtaking views on Oahu. From this vantage point, you can see the rugged cliffs of the eastern shoreline, turquoise waters below, and offshore islets like Rabbit Island and Kaohikaipu.
#6 Pali Lookout (Admission Included)
This lookout offers breathtaking views of Oahu’s windward coast and holds historical significance as the site of the 1795 Battle of Nu’uanu. Its panoramic views of the island make it a must-visit spot on the island.
#7 Macadamia Nut Farm
A hidden gem where you can sample fresh macadamia nuts, enjoy free Kona coffee, and learn about Hawaii’s rich farming traditions. Crack your own macadamia nuts and take home delicious local treats from this charming roadside stop!
#8 Kualoa Beach Park
A stunning beachfront spot with breathtaking views of Mokoliʻi (Chinaman’s Hat) and the Koʻolau Mountains. This picturesque location is perfect for capturing iconic Hawaii scenery, with golden sands, turquoise waters, and dramatic cliffs as your backdrop.
#9 Lunch (Not Included)
Savor a delicious island-style meal at Oahu’s famous food trucks, known for serving up fresh garlic shrimp, poke bowls, and local plate lunches. A perfect stop to refuel with authentic Hawaiian flavors in a laid-back, scenic setting.
#10 Turtle Beach (Snorkel Mask Included)
Relax on the beach, swim alongside Hawaiian green sea turtles in crystal-clear water, and explore vibrant coral reefs packed with marine life. One of the most magical stops on the island.
Please note that turtles are wild animals and sightings cannot be guaranteed. Ocean conditions may also make snorkeling unsafe during winter months. Your guide will make the final call on the day.
#11 Haleiwa Town
This legendary North Shore surf town is filled with charming local shops, famous shave ice, and the laid-back atmosphere Haleiwa is known for. Guests have a total of 1 hour to enjoy between Turtle Beach and Haleiwa Town. You can spend the full hour at Turtle Beach or the full hour exploring Haleiwa Town.
#12 Dole Plantation
Dole Plantation has been Hawaii’s pineapple mecca since the 1950s. We’ll drive through the plantation fields before stopping at the storefront, where you’ll have time to shop for Hawaiian souvenirs and cool off with a legendary Dole Whip
Please note: Does not include admission to paid attractions such as the Pineapple Express Train Tour or Pineapple Garden Maze.
#13 Drop Off (3:00PM)
Following your best day on the island, we drop you back at your lodging with a shell lei and plenty of time to get ready for your evening. Thank you for choosing to spend your day with us.
