Reviews of Hawaii Turtle Tours
Priscilla Torres
Very cool your to go on I highly recommend!
Mike was our tour guide and he truly went above and beyond to make sure everyone was taken care of and didn’t get left behind. Mike is really good at his job! Constantly made everyone laugh and have so many great recommendations to places. The shrimp place we stopped at was BEYOND DELICIOUS!!!! Recommend getting the spicy one for more flavor.
Cousin Victor was a great driver and always made sure the AC was on before getting back so we weren’t in the heat. If you’re in Hawaii you NEED to go on this tour!!!

We were looking for a private tour for our Family(12 people total) celebrating my in laws 55th anniversary. Johnny our Tour guide was awesome. We only had the 12 of us in a private Van all day. He was very knowledgeable & gave a lots of info and answered all our questions. He was definitely 5+⭐️ guide. We had a wonderful day exploring the whole island of Oahu. Plus we were all picked up at our hotel & dropped off there. Definitely recommend Hawaii Turtle Tours for a memorable day with our family. We saw sea turtles & many of the popular sites. Keep up the awesome job Johnny. 👏

Great Tour! We were able to see a lot in a day. Our tour guide Nevin was very knowledgeable and shared helpful tips. Our driver Danny got us to each place safely! The tour lasted about 8 hours as stated so we were back in the city by 4:30 PM. Our pick up was on time! The tour bus was clean, and we liked that it was a small group. Nevin allowed us ample time to enjoy each location without feeling rushed. Snorkeling was fun and we did see turtles. There were some fish as well. I have only removed one star because looking back at the itinerary it appears that we did not stop at the fruit stand that was listed after lunch. It would have been nice to enjoy a refreshing coconut drink.
We did make a stop by a gift shop early on in the tour and outside of that was a vendor selling pineapples and pastries so maybe this made up for the fresh fruit stand 🤷🏿♀️. Nonetheless, I'd recommend this tour over the other circle island tours that are marketed throughout Wikiki. It provided a great introduction to Oahu for a first time visitor!

Tour was great and very informative. Mike and Victor were more than awesome and very attentive through out the tour. Very beautiful scenery all around the island, breath taking views at every stop we made. The North Shore was incredible, got to see a few turtles from a far and enjoyed the walk on the sand. Enjoyed all there was to offer at every stop we made for snacks, food, drinks, fruits etc… Mike was a very funny guy with his jokes making our group laugh all along the tour making it more enjoyable meanwhile giving us all the information we needed about the island and culture it brings, Victor was a great driver getting us too and from. I would 100 percent recommend this tour with Mike & Victor. You will encounter the best views of beaches, ocean views, local shops, different towns, islands in the surroundings areas, sky views, mountains, the people.
Thank you Mike & Victor and ALOHAAAA!!!!!!🤙🏽🌺
(Insider joke for Mike & Vic) Jordan was great 💯🤙🏽😂
P.S bring cash for food, drinks, snacks, souvenirs, tips …..
Maria Rittenberg
A highlight of our trip. Got an amazing overview of Oahu and stopped at so many great locations. Our guide, Mike, was so interesting! He presented so much amazing history and info. in such a fun and understandable way. A great guide filled with priceless tips about the Island. Cousin Joe, our driver made it a very smooth ride. We could sit back and relax. We highly recommend this tour. Not all are the same. Had a wonderful time snorkeling and spotting Sea Turtles.

If you are going to do a tour of the island, this is the bus you want to be on... From the top.
Entertainment, Mike is funny AF, like my dark sense of humor 🤣.
Bus is spotless, and runs the AC the entire time.
They give you a time frame but never rushed anyone.
Shop stop places are spot on, food was amazing. Had the spice garlic shrimp 🤤...
I'm glad I booked with them... can't remember the drivers name but he clearly knew what he was doing 😊
Sebastian Rodriguez
One of the cases where I wish 6 stars were possible. Hawaii Turtle Tours gave us a beautiful overview of the right side of the island (south, east, and north), including scenic views of many Hawaiian historical landmarks. Justin and Joe were a fun trove of knowledge and gave us enough ideas for places to revisit during our vacation. Highly recommend to take this tour during the first days of your vacation, you might find yourself wanting to revisit many of the places covered! Professional, accommodating, and downright hilarious!
Emily
I had an AMAZING day today with Justin and Mitch!
Justin is clearly very passionate and knowledgeable, and both had a very well planned out and safe route. We saw incredible sights and got to indulge in wonderful local culture. The shrimp I had at lunch was some of the best I’ve ever had; all of their recommendations were 100% perfect. The respect they have for the land and its surrounding communities was so genuine…you can tell they love what they do.
Highly recommend! Thank you, Hawaii Turtle Tours!
Kari Carmonita
This tour was absolutely amazing! Our guide Nevin was amazing! He’s had amazing vibes and was super informative; he told us lots of amazing stories about the island as well as some historical contexts about the areas we were visiting! Everything was planned really well got to take some amazing pics and eat yummy food! Loved being able to swim with the turtles and go to the Macadamia farm I recommend the cinnamon and caramel nuts! I truly recommend these guys!!!
Shenita Ellis
We had an amazing time. Justin was an awesome tour guide; very knowledgeable, filled with Hawaiian culture and history. The scenery was breathtaking and the beaches were gorgeous a picture opt at every turn. We also had jokes and laughter the entire tour. Thanks for showing us “Hawaii”
Tricia Douglas
Wonderful experience learning about the history, language, sites and people's. Nevin was our tour guide. He shared a lot of interesting information. Snorkeling experience was great and we got to see the turtles. The only downside was the food at the lunch stop as the chicken was cold and not flavourful. The stop times at the sites was sufficient. Definitely recommend this tour.
Mat Yon
This is an absolutely amazing tour. Kurt was our tour guide and Harry our driver. Kurt was very knowledgeable and kept us well entertained during our day trip. Every stop was filled with interesting information and it was beautiful. The lunch stop was excellent and the food very tasty. We enjoyed snorkelling with the turtles! I would certainly recommend this tour.
Amy Truong
I've been on a lot of different tours and excursions in Oahu and Maui. This is by far the best and my favorite tour. Kurt and Victor made the entire experience.
Each stop and location were perfect in terms of timing and photo opportunities. The history behind the tours were so very much appreciated especially when Kurt has you laughing till your stomach hurts. You learn some fascinating legends, trivia and background, such as the battle of the flying fish.
The stop at the fruit stand was fun and the Shrimp plate was the best I've had on the island.
I would recommend booking this tour at least the first or second day of your trip to get a sense of the true beauty of Oahu. Snorkeling was short, but I had no problem with that.
Do the Circle Tour with Snorkeling.
Anthony Hui
Did a full island tour with tour guide Johnny Aloha (the retired pro surfer)and driver Victor. We got the most out of our 8-9 hour tour for a very reasonable price. The tour guides here do not stick to a copy-paste script of all the sights in Oahu. They have PERSONALITY! Johnny Aloha will make you feel right at home on his bus with his music, stories, and overall outgoing and explosive personality while thoroughly explaining all aspects of every landmark. Finally, Johnny ensures you maximize the most out of your time meaning efficient time management while making sure all guests don’t feel rushed at each stop. Overall, I’d recommend this tour company for anyone interested in learning a little but more about Oahu. Shout out to Johnny and keep catching those waves!
Wilson Tiang
Fantastic tour! With Vic at the wheel and Josh dropping knowledge, we toured the entire island. Passed by some future snorkeling spots and future ventures. Great snorkeling experience, unfortunately it was cloudy with sand due to the swell but we did see turtles on the surface! A great introduction to Oahu to help plan better adventures!
Kevin Godfrey
If you’re in Oahu and looking for an amazing turtle tour, this is the one. Mike is so good at what he does and kept the entire group entertained the entire day! Not only does he know all the history and landmarks around Oahu, he’s really funny too! Next time we’re here and take this tour it’ll only be with Mike. Thank you for showing my daughter and I the most amazing time today!!
Jeffery Reynolds
The tour was fantastic. Kurt and Harry are hands down the best tour guides to have for the tour. They pulled out all the stops to make the trip and tour one of the most memorable things throughout me and my families trip in Hawaii
Cris Martinez
THE MOST AMAZING EXPERIENCE … if u want to experience the true beauty of Hawaii I STRONGLY RECOMMEND this tour ESPECIALLY if ur guides are KURT AND HARRY. they made our 8 hour tour feel like 1 hour with all the professionalism and comedy given by them. The food is amazing and the views astonishing.
If u have the honor of visiting this island THIS TOUR is the best way to TAKE ADVANTAGE!!!!!!!!!
Kayla Enderle
Loved the experience and had a great time with husband! The tour guides Kurt and harry were awesome and very knowledgeable of the stops and the island. Overall great tour and got to see turtles, ate great food, and had a dole whip!
Stephanie Juarez
Our Tour guide Kurt was fun and really informative. By far one of my favorite tours since we came! Thank you also Harry for driving us safely throughout our trip!
Greg Chambers
King Mike was a great tour guide! Very good tour. Funny, lots of stories and jokes. Very knowledgeable and interactive. Lots of great stops and food along the way. I highly recommend.
Maia Eames
We had so much fun with Justin and Steve! The circle island tour was such a great way to see and learn about the island. This was a super good activity for the beginning of our trip because we got a little taste of many different parts of Oahu!!
Rob Keefe
Today we had the absolute pleasure of taking a Hawaii Turtle Tour for a circle Island tour of Oahu. We saw some amazing scenery and had an even more amazing tour guide. Josh shared tremendous information, all the while being extremely entertaining. He truly added a great deal of fun and fact to the day! And, best of all, he Lives Pono! Thank you Hawaii Turtle Tours and am emphatic Mahalo to Josh for a great day!!!
Cari Matthews
My Fiance & I went on tour with Justin & Harry. Justin was so knowledgeable & funny. Not only just about Hawaii; the culture, history & science side of it. Getting to see Diamond head, many beaches, best spots to hit, where to not go if you're new, food (so damn good, omg the Shrimp place & Fruit stand, Macadamia Store with Coffee, Dole Whip). Even learning about Peral Harbor when you pass thru where things happened. Highly recommend, especially at the start of your trip! They do work for tips also, recommend you do - super worth it
Tina Brizuela
Hawaii Turtle Tours was an incredible experience. Johnny and Joe were an incredible tour guide team who were full of history, fun facts, local knowledge and fun. Johnny was without a doubt an excellent tour guide who went above and beyond the tour script and schedule. The bonus stops and insider recommendations made the entire trip. The best part was swimming with the turtles, and all the historical facts about the island and culture. It was also super fun to meet everyone from around the world and enjoy this fun and personalized experience together. Johnny makes sure to address each guests origins in a fun way and learn everyone’s name. I highly recommend this tour to anyone wanting a memorable tour of Oahu. Mahalo “Johnny Aloha”.
Katie Maki
Johnny was our tour guide, he had great music and was very knowledgeable. He made a point to learn every passengers name, and made a point to keep us all entertained between stops. The tour itself was great with multiple scenic stops, local vendors, and incredible views.
Summers Sells
This tour was exactly what you need to do when you don’t know what you want to do on the island. Justin our tour guide, was an experience in itself, and handled all situations personably / professionally. Justin really helped with the history and facts about the island that first timers or people who want to experience wouldn’t naturally know. He really brought enrichment of history with his family lines and bring us to local spots to help the community in each stop. Justin was really friendly and passionate about the island and this tour really helps you get a real feel on what you should do next while you are there. We were able to experience the grace of beautiful sea turtles and the respect of the island. Don’t forget about Victor and his wonderful bus driving on those two lane roads. By doing this tour, the next day we went out at all the recommended spots from Justin and went to the other side of the island beaches and hiked up Monoa Falls Trail. Definitely worth the bang in your buck! Thank you again :)
Steve Nash
Simply amazing tour of the whole island with beautiful locations and I wealth of knowledge that was so fun and informative. Having never been to Honolulu before we now feel like experts and would recommend this team of Justin and Mitchell to everyone. Great food and great snorkeling. Everything you want in a tour. Well done guys.
Kelsie Kline
The driving route was a full circle tour of the island and Justin had so many stories and historical facts for each location we stopped or passed. He’s hilarious and knew all of our locations well enough to make last minute changes to tailor to our needs (for example, one shave ice place had a huge line so he quickly redirected our driver to a different historic shave ice place with no line that was equally as delicious). The van was comfy with huge windows and our driver, Victor, made me feel very safe.
Paula Lyles
This tour was absolutely fantastic! Mitchell, our driver, did a great job of maneuvering us through some crazy traffic and kept the tour rolling along. Nevin our tour guide, was extremely knowledgeable and shared great info about the history of the general area and the places we visited. The amount of time we had at each stop was just enough to see and experience everything without dragging out the day. I would absolutely recommend this tour to anyone who would like to see all of the highlights of the island, without the stress of driving.
Yrume Fernandez
Great tour and guide. The tour took us around the east side of Oahu, stopping at beautiful locations and points of interest along the way. Our guide was insightful and pointed out interesting items throughout the day. We even got to swim with Turtles at North Shore... Definitely worth it. We had rented a car and took a similar route days before, but got great information we didn't have (when we did it on our own), during this tour. I give it 4 stars, as stops could have been a bit longer at one or two locations to give more time to enjoy the stop.
el Ray David
Great!
Mike and cousin Danny did a wonderful job giving us the tour of the island. Mike is knowledgeable, funny and kept the tour going. Danny made sure we got there safe. These guys are a five star team. The highlight for us was the sea turtles. Really exciting to see them up close.
Lunch was a big treat at Fumis, it was delicious. Try the tempura and the garlic and butter plates, you won't be disappointed.
I highly recommend this tour. Make sure to ask for Mike and Danny to show you around.
Derek Broussard
Took my family to Hawaii for a week long vacation in June. We really wanted to see as much of the island as possible without driving around aimlessly. We thoroughly enjoyed the Tour, visiting the North Shore and seeing these amazing Turtles and getting so close to them. The lunch at Fumis was spectacular ( I recommend the shrimp). Our Tour Guide Kory was simply the best. His high energy and infectious personality had my entire family laughing and smiling the entire time. He answered any questions we had without hesitation and was so polite. It's always a great time when you can see someone actually enjoying their job as he does. I would definitely recommend Hawaii Turtle Tours...ask for Kory as the guide.
brit nguyen
7hr tour with a lot of information and activities! We saw sea turtles, ate amazing pineapple icecream and saw a pineapple farm. Our tour guide Justin is very educated and energetic. No bad vibes. My family enjoyed it! Highly reccomend!!
Janet Davis
We had an enjoyable day with King Mike sharing the landscape highlights of Oahu along with historical facts, cultural details, and the warmth and Hawaiian humor. I have a better understanding of Oahu and the Hawiians because of this trip. It was filled with beauty and a relaxing attitude. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone who wants to feel a part of the essence of Oahu.
Libby Naystatt
Justin made this a fun and very informative tour of the island. We felt we were in safe hands with our driver Victor.
The day was packed with many beautiful and interesting stops with the highlight being snorkeling observing turtles.
This is definitely value for money.
Nathan Pennington
We booked a private tour last minute on a whim. It turned out to be an excellent decision. Our guide Damian was fantastic. We truly got a feeling that we got to connect just a little with some of what O'ahu has to offer. Totally recommend. 100 percent!
Lauren Braun
Justin and Mitch were amazing! Justin was very knowledgeable and gave us tips on finding all of the best, uncrowded beaches, and food. We got to see Turtles and lots of fish during the snorkeling portion of the tour. Definitely recommend!
Amote Sias
Very rainy storming day but the tour went on. The tour guide Justin was excellent, knowledgeable, humorous, and attentive. We didn’t see and do everything scheduled but it was a very good trip any way. Lunch at Ted’s Bakery was delicious and huge portion. Shopping was fun! I have some idea of the whole island now.
Kathryn Welden
Mike, our tour guide, and Cousin Joe, our driver, were fabulous! Mike gave us lots of information and pointed us to the BEST spot for Poke! It’s was a great trip! We’re most excited to see Sadie the monk seal!
Lilia Zapata, MS
Kurt and Henry were the best tour guides. We enjoyed each stop with its uniqueness. They took us us to Tsue's Farm for lunch, which is the best food we have had in Hawaii. My husband and I appreciated Kurt's humor and knowledge of the island. A must tour when in Waikiki.
Nicole Schmidt
Had an amazing time on this tour around the island learning some history, free treats, and snorkeling with turtles! Absolutely would do this tour again! Justin was an amazing guide!! Mahalo!
David Smith
This trip was awesome! It was informative, great views, amd we was able to see like 8 turtles. Our guide Johnny Aloah was great! He was respectable, informative, and fun. Highly recommend!
Courtenay McCarthy
Kurt and Harry were amazing! We spent a full day seeing so many authentic sites on the island. Great views, great food, great stories, and great jokes! Highly recommend this tour!
Maria Luz Franco
Wow, I am so impressed with this tour! First Hawaii trip and this tour with Justin and Tuti was a highlight. Detailed information about the culture, Island, food, and so much more. Saw the best views and visited the best locations! Would recommend this to everyone!!!!!
Jesse Powell
King Mike worked hard all day and kept the whole family entertained! 9 hrs flew by. If you do the circle tour, ask for King Mike only! Kids loved him and we had a great time, the entire time. Make sure to tip!!!!!
Coral Raines
We loved all the stops on the tour. Justin was a great tour guide and we appreciated his extensive knowledge of the area, history and culture.
Erin Andrews
King Mike led our all-day tour and it was a blast! Our kids (8 & 5) had a great time and the stops we made provided nice breaks for them. They loved lunch at the shrimp farm and had their first Dole Whip! King Mike told us the history of kings and queens on the islands, funny stories about growing up on Oahu, and even included life lessons like how to start fires with hibiscus sticks and which leaves to use to repel mosquitos. I would recommend this to anyone including families!
Stephen Hood
It was an amazing tour, our guide Josh was hilarious and fun. Showed us lots of cool sites and provided alot of good island history and insite. Well worth the money
Jason Atkins
Our family did the Circle Island tour with Josh and what an amazing experience! Learned a lot and had a blast doing it! I think he even convinced me to start surfing again after about 25 years! Would definitely recommend!
LMT Yoshinaga
Kurt & Harry made my tour experience an amazing memory to look back on.
Got to experience the beautiful scenic views of Hawaii with some information about each location we stopped at.
The highlight of my experience was getting to snorkel while spotting a sea turtle.
Therese Willey
Good value for money. Our tour guide Mike was knowledgeable and funny. Great driver Sunny (Sammy).
Enjoyed the tour very much. Thank you.
Yuliana Baez
Highly recommend especially for the price. A full experience in Hawaii. My favorite part was the snorkeling. I saw some turtles and our tour guy Nevin was the best!!
Debbie Rogers
Loved this trip so much! Justin was an amazing tour guide and showed us some great places! Swimming with the turtles was so much fun! Highly recommended!
Jenna Gray
Justin was an incredible guide with passionate knowledge of Hawaii! Turtles, nature, amazing local food and incredible scenery. If im ever lucky enough to be in Hawaii again then Justin better save me a seat on the turtle bus!
Sarah
Amazing day out with Kurt and Harry. We loved the small but varied group and had heaps of laughs along the way.
Seeing the turtles was a real highlight. The length of the trip was ideal being back in town for 4pm meaning you weren’t too tired to head out for dinner after.
nasser assery
Wonderful experience with the best guide Justin, was able to see a lot during the day, most importantly snorkeling with the turtles!!! Lunch and dessert were delicious too!
Tip: If you have your own snorkeling gear, bring it. They provide it, but not the best quality.
Bruce Jan
Great tour ! The driver Harry and the guide Justin were great. He gave us lots of information and made the whole tour fun.
We also get to see sea turtles!
Robin Kowski
Nevin was an awesome tour guide. Very knowledgeable and he kept the tour group on track. It was a great way to start our trip.
Carlos Flores
Awesome experience Mike the tour guide was real knowledgeable and made the tour fun. I would recommend this tour to anyone wanting to visit different parts of the island and spend a day learning different facts and stories of the culture.
Johnike Bell
Our driver, Justin, was great! He provided us with a great deal of information & history throughout the tour. We didn't feel rushed. I wasn't impressed with the snorkeling with the turtle, but I would recommend the driver.
Thanks,
Johnike Bell
Steph Miller
Went on this tour with my parents and had a blast! Justin was an excellent tour guide and pointed out a bunch of interesting things to see! Harry was our driver and did amazingly at going around the construction traffic. We were very lucky to have seen a lot of turtles at the beach, as well as at our lunch spot Tsue’s farm! I want to say what a highlight was but honestly all of it was great I can’t pick just one!
J M
Neven and Mitchell did a great job getting us to each destination safely with plenty of historical information along the way. We learned so much from this tour and enjoyed the different sceneries and stops. Lunch with Fumi’s was awesome and loved talking with the Chief while snorkeling with the turtles. Macadamia nut and Dole Plantation was a huge plus!!! Will definitely do another trip with them when back in Oahu. Thanks Neven and Mitchell. You guys ROCK!!!!
Thanks for sharing the turtle photo Neven!!!!
legendary trick shot gamer
Kurt and Harry were the best guides! They make you feel like family for sure. The love and compassion shown throughout the whole trip made a lasting impression on us!
Lara Luna
I had a wonderful time Nevin told us about the beautiful islands . Learning thing I didn’t know thank you for a wonderful time …. Food was okay should be more to choose from the pineapple stand was amazing….. I would use this company again !!!!!
Tess Screeton
It was a wonderful experience. Nevin, our tour guide, i thought he did a fantastic job of telling us the history of the places and everything we need to know or even making us feel comfortable even was so traffic along the way. He know what he was doing. Our driver, Mr. Harry was good too. My hubby and I had a wonderful experience and definitely would recommend to others. If there is one thing I could say negatively and i guess it’s not a big deal is work on the AC of the mini bus so as very cool even stuck on traffic. Thank you so much.
Melissa Fraser
Johnny aloha was amazing. If you want to know anything about Oahu, Hawaii, anywhere really, he knows it. He takes you to the best spots. I’m ample time. Highly recommend.
Froylan Munoz
Nevin was the best nothing better than a true local sharing he's knowledge and info
As far a the trip guided tour was great the pick us up no issues took us to all the locations and was a great experience took most part of our day which was fine liked the size of the group not too big would recommend!
John Bittner
Justin was awesome! He was very informative and efficient. There are many other buses on this tour and he and Victor were very strategic in beating the crowds which we appreciated. The ceremony before we embarked on swimming with the turtles made us feel like we were one with Oahu....and the turtles responded by allowing us to observe them through the afternoon. A most memorable experience altogether... definitely worth doing.
Scarlett L.
We had a great experience on the tour! Joe was a great driver and we felt comfortable leaving things on the bus with him when we stopped at different points. And Justin our guide, he was great! Justin was very knowledgeable, professional and had a pleasant sense of humor. Also, really liked how much he respects the nature of the island. I'd definitely recommend!
amon McGhee
It was an absolutely amazing tour of Oahu ever. Justin was our tour guide he was phenomenal. He was very detailed even with the places we bypassed. Uncle Dave was absolutely great driving and protecting our things. If it’s your time in Hawaii definitely recommend doing one of these tours. Great for the family. Got the chance to snorkel with the turtles. Dole plantation we have a whipped pineapple dessert it was yummy. I’m lactose intolerant and did have any issues.
Emily Jara
Kurt and Harry were amazing!!! They truly made the experience something I’ll remember for a long time. My boyfriend and I were constantly smiling throughout the whole trip because of Kurt’s humor. He’s hilarious and very knowledgeable! The food we ate was delicious and the place we went to eat had a lot of games to play to keep us entertained while we waited for everyone to finish. All the stops we made were so much fun and had beautiful views.
AlexPersonn
My tour guide was Justin and he was funny, making the long drove around the island way more interesting. The driver was Jimmy and they definitely did a very good job and was a very fun trip. Justin also guided me to snorkel right next to a turtle in the ocean, which was pretty cool.
Beverly Cameron
Had a great time learning about the history, people and food of Hawaii on this tour. Our guide was Josh and the driver Victor took time with us at each stop. I wouldn’t want to drive to North Shore and miss the important stops and miss out on some great jokes! Only downside- it was raining when we visited the Dole Plantation, but the Dole Whip made the trip worth it!
Moria De La O
Small group, Circle island tour with snorkeling with turtles: My husband, mother-in-law, and 2 9 year olds had a incredible day! Mike and Uncle Harry were beyond fantastic!! We learned a lot, laughed a lot, ate well, experienced island weather, snorkeled, and picked up great tips for future days.
Nancy Sun
Kurt our guide and Eric our driver made our day memorable. The bus was clean, small group congenial from young couples to seniors and a Make A Wish family.
Kurt provided interesting facts and folklore about our stops and pass by locations as well as general Hawaiian history.
Kurt asked often if we were comfortable or needed a bathroom break. He took lunch orders in advance so our food was ready when we arrived. My garlic shrimp lunch was delicious with rice, salad and fresh pineapple. The location was spacious with covered eating areas and picturesque canal where you could return to kayak or paddle board.
Kurt pointed out that the stops at fruit stand, lunch, macadamia nut, coffee bean and gift shops provided locally grown products.
The surf was rough and waves high that day so swimming, snorkeling and turtle watching was limited but Kurt directed us to safe areas where we saw turtles and could swim.
Kurt’s suggestions prior to each stop helped us manage our time to enjoy shopping and photo ops.
It was an enjoyable day and pick up drop off at my hotel was convenient.
Monica Falls
This full island tour was a perfect full day excursion. We stopped at several different spots for views, activities, and food. Justin was so knowledgeable and funny and kept everyone super engaged. Great tour guide and tour! I learned so much about the island’s history as well. We had a blast the whole time. Seeing the turtles and snorkeling in the beautiful bay was the icing on the cake. Couldn’t recommend enough!
Tamika Hooper
Mike was our tour guide and he truly went above and beyond to make sure everyone was taken care. Mike is really good at his job! He had so many great recommendations.
Tyre Mitchell
It was an awesome experience. Nevin was our tour guide and he did an excellent job explaining the history of the island and Hawaii. The stops were well planned out and perfect. I would have liked the beach used to be little closer to the parking lot it was a bit of a walk for some of the passengers to get down to the beach area. While I understand the beach chosen was chosen for the viewing of turtles, I would recommend somewhere else with less walking to the beach. Also I noticed the faces and some of the expressions on some of the other passengers faces when Nevin was giving the history of Hawaii and the island, I think it was a bit too much history at times felt like we were in a college lecture instead of on vacation. My suggestion would be to tone down some of the history, maybe find some points of interest to point out and discuss briefly. This isn’t a negative review on Nevin as you can tell he is really passionate about what he does and enjoys it very much so. I just think for us and a few others it was too much history.
Haley
This trip completely exceeded all of my expectations!! The thought of waking up early for an 8 hour tour of the island seemed like it would not be worth it.
Kurt and Harry are a dream team who made every second awesome. Harry the driver got us to each destination safely and in a timely manner.
Kurt is by far the best tour guide I have ever had the pleasure of meeting. 8 hours with him went by in the blink of an eye. He made the trip entertaining, informative, and extremely memorable. You can tell he loves what he does and takes great pride in having fun while sharing credible and important information on Hawaii’s history.
The tour itself made plenty of stops and we got to do a lot without it being overwhelming. I’m not sure how we would have experienced so much of the island without this tour.
I’ve seen plenty of tourist scams that just want your money- this is not one of them. Kurt is so amazing he hand took each grain of salt out of the water for me bc it was too salty. After that he parted the waves when they got too violent! A true adventure for all ages.
Ann
Kurt and Harry were amazing and very nice Kurt made everybody happy and made sure to tell the group things we need to know and was amazing just a great host! Harry was very nice to amazing driver!! 👍🌺❤️ …

My husband and I are honeymooning in Oahu and decided to take a tour. We are so glad we chose this one! Our guide, Justin, was super funny, energetic, and knowledgeable about the land and culture. He made sure everyone was having a great time throughout the tour, and also took the time to hang out with some of the smaller groups individually. Would definitely recommend taking this tour at the beginning of your stay so you learn the cool spots to hang out for the rest of your stay. Thanks Justin and and Hawaii Turtle Tours for such a romantic, entertaining, and delicious day!!!
Karen Loftis
What a great tour! First full day on Island activity. I highly recommend as a low stress way to get lay of land. Mike struck the right balance showing us tourists a good time while also explaining value options for experiences and wow moments from local point of view. I found and booked through Marriott Adventuress and am so glad I did. Note: I met several people on.plane ride over from mainland who did similar circle island tours with different companies. We compared notes - Hawaii Turtle Tours won!
becca H
The Northshore circle adventure with snorkeling was on of my favorite adventures! Kurt and Harry made the day fun, informative and safe. Definitely Recommend this tour!!!
Kevin Qiu
Kurt and Harry took us on such a fun adventure around the north shore of Oahu!
Our day started off with a courtesy call from Kurt which was helpful in making sure we were on track to getting picked up by the bus. The sights we visited were nice photo ops. The food places we stopped at were delicious and we got to try local North Shore Hawaiian cuisine. Unfortunately, we didn't get to see turtles surface on the beach but we did get small glimpses of them breaching the waters (no fault of the tour though, turtles were just shy).
Kurt is such a great personality and gave us plenty of laughs along with a thorough explanation of all the sites we visited. We went on a Friday and the traffic at our stops were not bad and we got this done very time efficiently. Harry drove spectatularly and was constantly cleaning and checking the state of the bus which made us feel safe throughout the tour. Overall, I'd highly recommend them and the tour company if you want a guided experience through the North Shore!

We had Justin on our tour today. He was great! Really easy fun going guy. I would definitely recommend.
Laura Avant
King Mike was an awesome tour guide. We stopped by so many beautiful places. The sea turtles at Turtle Cove were coming right up to the shore. The pineapple whip at the Dole Plantation is so good! Overall it was a fun time and I would recommend it. I would’ve rated it 5 stars but the snorkeling portion of the trip was kind of lame and you couldn’t really see anything. That’s not necessarily the tours fault, the water was murky. It may be better at other times.
Jackie Alegria
One word: Incredible! You will not find a tour guide like Kurt! This Turtle Tour was more than just seeing turtles. We got to experience different venues, food, and see the “real” island which was such a delight. Even with the tour being extremely long; Kurt and Harry brought many laughs, interesting facts, and numerous stories. What a wonderful way to end our family trip!
Brileigh Wedel
Honestly a fun experience. Nevin did an amazing job with guiding us. Would highly recommend to everyone.
Jessica Petri
The tour was an ideal way to spend our first day on the island. Our tour guide Justin was great! We got to learn so much about the island which we would have not been able to do so traveling alone. All of the scheduled spots were what we wanted to see and for a perfect amount of time.
Michelle Gonzalez
Awesome experience!! My kids and I had an amazing time and Johnny was such a great tour guide. Thank you
Marie Stackhouse
Drove all around the island. Our tour guide Uncle Isaac was very knowledgeable and nice! We had a fun day and ended the tour swimming with turtles in Turtle Bay. Bring cash for tips and you need cash for lunch. A++++++
Kassandra Wong
We had a wonderful time on this tour. Our tour guides Kurt and Harry were exceptional with their knowledge and professionalism. Highlight: the macadamia nut farm, super delicious - a stop we would of never found on my own. They’ve taken the care of creating a memorable tour, Thank you Kurt and Harry!
Nikhita Malhotra
What an amazing day!! Kurt and Harry are a dynamic duo who play off each others personalities so well. They went above and beyond to make sure we have an amazing trip and really got to see it all. Kurt kept the whole tour fun and we never stopped laughing. You learn about the island while stopping at all the hotspots for views and fun activities. Every stop was enjoyable and the day passed by too quickly we didn’t want it to end!!!
Nicole Neves
Kurt and Harry were amazing on our 8 hour tour! Kurt made sure to give us all of his local knowledge and keep the entire day light and funny. We were able to see almost the entire island which is something we wouldn’t have been able to do on our own. This tour is for groups of all ages. Such a great tour and I would highly recommend to anyone!
Kai Chin
Justin was an amazing guide super friendly courteous. He has a wealth of and great insight to the islands surroundings. The driver victor was great as well. I would highly recommend this tour to everyone. As a veteran that has been on the island for training many times this was an amazing civilian experience thank you!!
Eleni Leggas
Justin and Tuti were absolutely amazing tour guides for the day. We saw so much and enjoyed many different activities with Justin being super friendly and knowledgeable in so many interesting topics. There was a lot of cultural and historical knowledge about Oahu which I find very interesting and significant. Love the way the tour was informative and fun. Absolutely loved it and would recommend to anyone wanting a worthwhile day tour.
Ford Explor99
Great tour! Highly recommend! Kurt was great and Harry the best driver! Bus was on time at pick up they called to confirm. Kurt was very informative and we stopped at a lot of popular sites! If you want a more personalized tour rather than a lot of people take this tour!
Chad Peterson
Nevin was a fantastic tour guide. Really appreciated his knowledge of the local venues. His choice of music was outstanding. Had a really good time.
Farha Khan
Amazing overview of many of the highlights of Oahu. Great first day on the island. Our tour guide Johnny was very knowledgeable about local history and culture. He also surveyed the group to try to add extra stops or additional time at specific locations based on group interest. Appreciate that Turtle Tours also has a dedicated lifeguard for the snorkeling portion of the trip.
Rebekah Asprodites
Such a great tour! Justin was our tour guide and he did a wonderful job. If you are looking for a fun and informative tour this is your tour!
Molly Hamill
Locations are beautiful, and it was nice to have the comfort of a life guard when snorkeling. That being said my tour guide Kurt spent way more time talking about himself than he did teaching us about Hawaii. I found it very annoying and honestly anxiety inducing. He did not stop talking the entire drive and it was rarely educational it was mostly just about his life. He was very nice but simply not My style.
Erika Vince
Justin our tour guide was fantastic. Loved this guy. Great energy and funny. The scenery spectacular. Loved the macadamia nut farm and the chickens. Delicious coffee and chocolates. Snorkelling was nice. Turtles were eating coral off to the sides. Hawaii Turtle tours (HTT) hires a life guard “Kawaii” for the duration of the snorkeling to keep everyone safe. Tour ended abruptly for my family as at the end of snorkelling my mum went for walk and slipped on coral whilst taking photos of turtles and injured herself terribly. Justin flew like lightning towards her with Kawaii right behind him. They conducted first aid and were so gentle with her. She couldn’t move her arm and was banged up and bruised badly. Ambulance was called. Justin and Raul (manager) phoned in to hospital checking up on us for updates. They paid for our Uber from the North Shore to Waikiki. Raul kept in contact to ensure mum was ok and if we needed anything. Few days later Raul took us for a drive to Mnt Tantilus and Magnetic Is. HTT is the essence of Aloha. They take care of their clients and safety is No1. We felt so much love, warmth and kindness from these beautiful people. Cannot express enough gratitude. Mahalo from Erika, Jolan (mum) and Oliver, Sydney, Australia xxx
Dawn Shirley
Wow! We were apart of the Hawaii Turtle Tour today with Kurt (tour guide) and Harry (bus driver). Our daughter picked this as part of her Make-a-Wish trip and it was incredible! Kurt made this trip memorable and special for our daughter by recognizing her on the bus and gifting her a beautiful necklace. We loved every minute from the entertainment, scenery, amazing food and all the stops! This tour is a must when visiting Oahu!
Thank you again Kurt and Harry for making this such a memorable part of our trip :)
Howard Kemp
Wow this tour was absolutely magical!! Kurt is the most passionate, professional, credible, articulate tour guide with a great sense of humor. Harry the driver was made us feel safe with his pillow smooth driving. Best tour guides I have experienced anywhere. Hats off to Kurt and Harry and thank you Hawaii Turtle Tours hands down the only choice for your family tour while in Honolulu!
Bernadette Garcia
Justin gave us a brilliant tour of Oahu - with amazing local knowledge that was both informative and entertaining. The highlight of the day was snorkelling at a secluded beach where we saw turtles. I also got to tick two things off my Oahu food bucket list (dole whip and food truck shrimp). An unforgettable experience!
Katy Schlaefer
I absolutely loved going on this tour! Our tour guide Justin was extremely knowledgeable about the various different places we saw and stopped at on our tour. With a clear plan set in place we began our day and traveled to various places with breathtaking views and excellent food. I would 100% recommend this tour and plan to go again when I make a return trip to Hawaii.
Emily Kowalczyk
One of my favorite things that we did during our trip!! Our tour guide, Justin, was so lively and fun- he truly made the trip 1000x more exciting! (Also shoutout to Mitch, the awesome bus driver). We got to see so many cool things and swim with several turtles, plus try out some local spots and the must-see touristy things! I was nervous about the tour at first, but it truly was a blast and I would recommend this tour to literally everyone, especially early on in your visit if possible!
alejandro mora
Really cool tour with Sebastian and Victor as our driver. Si! Sebastian talked a lot about Hawaiian culture and the island’s surf history. They took us to really cool photo spots and the best spot was going snorkeling where we got to see the sea turtles and other fish. If your family only knows Spanish, Sebastian is the perfect guide. He cares about your safety and does his best to ensure everyone is having fun. You basically drive around the entire island throughout the day. Perfect for large groups
Denise Cutler
Great day with our tour guide Mike who was funny and informative!! Kids loved snorkeling with the turtles. Thank you again!!!
James Gregory
It was awesome! Saw four turtles and full of tons of information. A few attractions we had stopped by on our own, but this tour elevated those things because of our guide Justin. Very knowledgeable and presented tons of good information and recommendations! Would recommend this on your first few days on Oahu.
Ruben Sanchez
Kurt and Harry are the absolute best tour guides a person could ask for! Their energy kept everything fun. Kurt did a fantastic job interacting with each person on a personal level and made this one experience to remember for a lifetime. He’s also hilariously funny I would highly recommend to all your friends and family and to anyone looking for a great time, fun activities, tasty food and wonderful memories.
Megan Arnold
Uncle Richard and Mike killed this tour! It’s the only one we had scheduled for our honeymoon and it did not disappoint. We spent the entire day filled of laughs, history, and amazing food! I highly recommend booking this tour!
Quinn Wurmlinger
Harry and kirt did an amazing job! Will definitely book again the next time we’re here! The extra touches they made will always be remembered!
Erin Van Draska
Really enjoyed the tour. Justin was VERY knowledgeable about the island and answered all questioned asked along the tour. Our driver, Steve, did a great job navigating the roads. Definitely would not have known about some of the hidden gems we stopped at if I had planned an island drive myself.
Kimberly Sims-Weatherall
We had a wonderful time today on our tour. Mike, our tour guide was AWESOME! And he's definitely funny and very knowledgeable of the Hawaii. The other people that were on our tour were awesome as well. If we are ever able to book another tour, we'd definitely want to take one with Mike!
Kristen Cockrell
Kurt and Harry were the absolute best tour guides I have ever had. Kurt is so funny, welcoming, knowledgeable, and makes sure you’re having the best time. Harry kept us safe and drove us to each destination with ease. I would 1000% recommend anyone going on this tour to request Kurt and Harry !
Lucy Farrow
We had a party of 6 and everyone had a great time! Nevin was awesome! We learned so much about Hawaii. We would highly recommend for anyone to take the tour.
Sincerely
The Farrow Group
Natally Stavreff
Such a great experience. Kurt was our tour guide and Harry was the driver. Both were professional and took pride in their work. Kurt had such good energy through the entire tour, he was full of jokes and knowledge about Hawaii. Defiantly one of the highlights of our trip.
Brandon Hong
King Mike!!!! Was the King of Hawaii Tours!!!!! Had so much fun!!! Great stories ~~~ will come back again for more tours with him!! Mahalo King Mike!!!!
Monica Speldrich
Our family had a wonderful time on the North Shore Adventure circle island tour and snorkeling. Our guide, Kurt, was hilarious and Harry was a maverick in navigating a safe journey. Food was delicious and views were spectacular. I recommend this tour for anyone who wants to have a great time.
Vy Bailey
We had the private tour and it was wonderful! Justin, our guide, was fantastic. He was very knowledgeable and accommodating. He also provided great tips throughout the venture and shared great restaurant recommendations. By the end of the tour, we felt like we really made a friend.
Diana Peng
Our tour guide Johnny was excellent — knowledgeable, friendly, and quick to adjust our tour plans when the itinerary had to be changed due to unforeseen circumstances (weather, etc). The tour itself was fun and productive despite the few schedule changes. Unfortunately it seems there was some confusion when it came to the tour itinerary that was shown online at the time of booking — the itinerary on-site was outdated and included several locations that are no longer part of the current tour. Johnny was very quick to contact the tour company to let them know about this issue, which everyone greatly appreciated, and we all made the best of our day regardless. Thank you Johnny!
Taylah Stevens
It was such a fun tour run by Justin and our amazing bus driver Joe! The vibes were so high and the scenes we saw and experienced were phenomenal.. I definitely recommend this tour especially if you love spending time within the ocean and snorkelling… The turtles were amazing!
merna adel gayed
It was a 8 hour tour around the whole island and it was really good, we enjoyed all the sight seeing and the snorkeling as well. The guide Nevin was really fun and he gave us a lot of useful information about Hawaii and about its history. Very recommended trip.
John Phillips
Our driver, King Mike was a great driver and host. The drive up the windward side(east) was nice as we saw the mountains and valley/coast. The lunch was great, plenty of stops for bathroom breaks. Unfortunately, we didn't see a lot of turtles but we did see about 5. You can't control the turtles so it was ok. The Dole plantation and macadamia nut stops were great. It was a nice change of pace from busy Honolulu.
adrianna spangler
We enjoyed so much this tour. Johnny our tour guy was amazing. He Knows every little detail and places he take us very well. From early morning to afternoon one of the best tours. We highly recommend and Mahalo Nui Loa.
Thank you very much
Genoa Watkins
King Mike was the best tour guide, he was so nice and upbeat for the whole 8 hour Circle Tour!! He went above and beyond, entertaining all ages. He also shows extra things when time is available.
If you are going to snorkle with turtles, bring good water footwear, for a rocky beach, you need to be a good swimmer since the current is strong, and the water was murky when we went. We couldn't see the turtles underwater, but their heads would pop up and you could see their shadows from the beach. Maybe there was better visibility the farther you went out into the ocean.
Tom Aklinski
Justin, our guide did an awesome job yesterday on this tour. We were a group of 10 which made for a perfect day. Justin was very flexible and catered to our wishes and whims. He was so knowledgeable and friendly. I highly recommend him and this tour.
Eric E. Hobbs
An outstanding tour! Kurt and Harry made it easy, informative and funny far beyond what we expected. A great introduction to many things on Oahu we otherwise wouldn’t have been aware were worth seeing. Snorkeling was just long enough, and I was particularly lucky to see two turtles. Just a great, fun, informative day. Well worth the time and the price.
Lee Kearnchett
Don't waste your money on a rental car. Hawaii Turtle Tours is the only way to see REAL Hawaii. Do you know the story behind how Waikiki beach got it's sand?
Even though the turtles were a "no-show" (resting up for this weekend's "BIG WAVES"), the rest of our tour was the best ever! Our tour director and bus driver worked together seamlessly. Justin's insight into the real Hawaii made the entire day informative as well as fun. We would love to come back weekly were it not for the 9 hour flight from Dallas.
Leila Jackson
King Mike was the best! This is a great tour to see a lot in one day. The food stops give you a great sense of the local cuisine, while the north shore beaches and snorkeling was beautiful. Bring lots of cash because all of the stops are cash only.
Abdullah Rafatee
Great tour. We did the North shore tour plus smirking with turtles. Our tour team, Kurt and Harry were amazing. They made the tour memorable and helped us understand the Hawaiian history and culture. Highly recommend this tour and the team 👌🏽 …
Jessica Keller
We scheduled the north shore circle tour with viator. On the day of our tour Josh and Joe came to pick us up at our designated pick-up area. From there we spent the day touring the north shore. Josh was an excellent tour guide. I really enjoyed his personality. He made the tour fun with his knowledge of the island and his obvious love for surfing. Great job Josh. And a huge shout out to Joe the driver. He got us from location to location safely. Thanks, Joe!! Aloha!!!
Haylee Almirol
After searching all over google for tours of Oahu, I landed on this one and I am extremely glad I did. Not only was the tour so much fun and beautiful, but our tour guide, Johnny, was amazing. He made the tour so much fun and very interesting with all his knowledge of the island! He answered everyones questions with ease and made us all feel like a family. Definitely my favorite activity I have done in Oahu, and I would definitely come back again and request Johnny!
Melissa Gordon
My driver was King mike, he was amazing & fun. Gave us soo much info about the island. Showed us the best spots. And he was sooo funny. Will do this again.
Christi Ham
Exceptional tour of the beautiful island! This was one of my favorite things we did during our vacation. I wish we would have taken this the first or second day instead of toward the end of our time here. I would have known so much more. Mike was top notch! Funny and so informative. Victor was an excellent driver. We felt very safe at all times! I will definitely book with them again!
Jessie Marie
Our tour guide King Mike was amazing and gave us lots of information. He was funny and we enjoyed our time on the North Shore
Don Pierce
Tour bus was on time, guide was pleasant and personable, very informative. Definitely a “people person”. Saw numerous attractions, turtles, got to snorkel, and had a very good experience, along with a good lunch.
Rachel Rogers-smith
Mike was fantastic. He was very knowledgeable and funny. It was lighthearted, yet informative. Loved the tour and all the sights we saw. My only comment would be to wear reef shoes, as there was a lot of rocks and coral in the water which hurt to stand on and it was necessary to walk on them in order to swim out a little bit in the hope of seeing a turtle. Lunch was hot, fresh and extremely tasty. Enjoyed seeing this part of the island 🏝. So happy we chose this tour. Will remember this for years to come. Thank you Mike. You are a natural at this. Mahalo. Rachel & Chris.
Tracy Contreras
Such a great day. The circle tour with turtle snorkeling was so worth it. I appreciated all the little stops along the way for macadamia nuts, shrimp lunch, Dole whip, fruits, etc. beautiful day and so nice to have someone else driving us. One of the hi lights of the tour was our guide, King Mike. I was sad because there weren’t other kids on the tour for my sons to hang out with but boy did King Mike make them feel special, the WHOLE day. He was knowledgeable and hilarious and a good driver and just a great guy. My kids will NEVER forget this day and my youngest even shed some tears when the bus dropped us off and drove away. 100% recommend this tour to everyone. Mahalo!
Gloria Jiang
Would recommend this tour! Kurt and Harry were exceptional and were super informative about the North Shore, we learned a lot of facts about the island and received recommendations. They also made us feel safe and comfortable during the tour. The stops were beautiful photo ops, snorkeling with the turtles was fun, and the food was delicious!
Helen Howard
We had a blast on this tour! Our tour guide, Justin, shared so much information during the entire tour. The stops on our tour became memorable experiences for all seven of us. The lunch was great and at a reasonable price. The dragonfruit lemonade at Tue's Farm was amazing! It was, altogether, a wonderful day full of informative adventure.
Alexis Holton
We had an absolute blast with Hawaii Turtle Tours. Nevin was an excellent tour guide. Beautiful views, great food and snack stops, got to see turtles while snorkeling, and learned so much about the island! Well worth the time and money. So glad we took this tour.
Mandi Womack
Bevin was a fantastic guide! If I were only reviewing him, it would be 5 stars, hands-down! This tour was a great way to cover a lot of area in one day. My disappointment came in not spending more time at the nut farm, Dole plantation and Diamond Head monument. I thought we would actually be touring each of these places, when it was more like a quick stop to rush through the gift shop only.
The beach water was very murky, so snorkeling was not good. I realize this is not the tour’s fault, however, this is where most of our time was spent.
Samantha Shirley
Justin was an amazing tour guide. We had such a great time. The only thing I didn’t like was the limited time we had actually snorkeling. The water wasn’t very clear and we couldn’t touch the coral which made it hard to swim around and see the turtles. The views were pretty though. The price for the trip should have included lunch but we paid for it too and it wasn’t that great. But the dole plantation was so cool & the dole whip was delicious!! Overall, it was a good experience but not worth the money.
Ashley Kim
My husband and I typically like to be very active in our travels. However, being in my third trimester and not wanting to over-extenuate or deal with driving and parking, we decided to try out this bus tour with Kurt and Harry. What an awesome decision and worth it! I am a planner, and I like to get a lot of things done, and I felt very satisfied with this trip. It was a great first day and first time in Oahu.
My favorite part of the tour was the snorkeling. We saw three turtles swimming close to shore! I found the snorkeling very doable, and Kurt made sure everyone felt safe and had other options if you didn't want to snorkel.
Kurt is super friendly and kurt-eous :) He easily engaged with everyone without putting anyone on the spot. And Harry's driving was smooth.
Highly recommend this tour with these two guides! Thank you for a great experience.
Amanda German
Our family of 4 had a great time on the Hawaii Turtle Tours. Justin and Joe were great guides, kept it fun but not overdone, we had plenty of time at our stops, learned a lot of Hawaiian history, and our teenagers didn't complain for 8 hours!!! I'd pay double for that experience again.🤣Very enjoyable for all. …
Lyric Williams
Mike our tour guide was kind, funny, and highly informative. I would definitely tour with him again when I return.
I really enjoyed the stops at local authentic restaurants and local beach spots. We didn’t see any sea turtles but I assume that’s because the beach was crowded.
Verna Ferrari
The tour was amazing and our driver/tour guide Johnny was phenomenal. He went above and beyond to interact with the passengers . As well as educate us on the language, customs, and history of the island. Would recommend Turtle Tours and when you book it ask for Johnny!!
Heather Coles
Kurt and Eric were wonderful. Kurt brought great energy and fun to the tour. He has great knowledge about the area and shares it all. Eric did a great job getting us to our multiple destinations. I would recommend this tour to anyone!
Duncan Thomas
Reese was a GREAT tour guide and provided great background on all the sites we went to, and he was fun to talk to. He knows a lot of "fun facts" about places around Oahu, but he also has a deep knowledge of the islands ecology which I did not expect from a tour guide. We even spotted an endangered seal along the shore and were able to stop and talk to the volunteers who were watching it.
We enjoyed just about everhting that was covered on the tour, with the only exception is the snorkeling is not great. It is more about being able to see a sea turtle than decent snorkeling, but it is a "Turtle Tour" so we can't fault them there. The snorkeling access is very rocky, and some type of water shoe would be advisable. Water was very cloudy when we were there, so we could not see any turtles but others said they saw one or two. So for someone who is an experienced snorkeler, this part of the tour was a bit of a letdown but those who have never snorkeled or don't do it much, it would be fine on a good day.
Michael Quast
Kurt and Harry did an amazing job of entertaining, educating, and information about the culture and sites of Hawaii. You won’t be disappointed. We took another tour the previous day and this one was superior and way more fun. Lots of interaction and never a dull moment with Kurt.
Colleen Mah
Thank you so much for an awesome day! Justin took such great care of our group. He was very knowledgeable, entertaining, and hospitable. Lots of laughs, island history, and conservatorship in mind. Book this tour! You won’t regret it!
Amy Velasquez
My husband and I had a wonderful time on the tour today with Mike and cousin Joe. Mike was an awesome tour guide and very informative about all the sites and he knows so much about Hawaii... Highly suggest you take a tour with Hawaii Turtle Tours and do it as soon as you can on your trip. You will be so happy you did.
Mahalo Mike!!! :)
Bruce Middleton
Wonderful experience even though the weather was cloudy and rainy. Our tour guide, Justin, kept everyone’s attention with his enthusiasm and wealth of island knowledge. He was very engaging even while describing what we “should have seen” if the weather had cooperated. He made the very best of some poor conditions that were beyond anyone’s control. Will definitely book again if we are fortunate enough to return to the island!
Jo Linda Hanline
Justin was an excellent guide! I thoroughly enjoyed the tour, Justin was very knowledgeable and made the stops very interesting. I loved every spot we visited and would definitely recommend to everyone, and will come visit some of these places on my own.
Elmore Robinson
The tour was awesome Justin was fun from we boarded until the day ended. He gave us a lot of history and recommendations for our future visit. Thanks for helping create great memories for our family. Highly recommend this tour as you get to see a lot.
Thanks guys
Matt Wojtaszek
Great tour for one of our few days on Oahu. We got to experience so many things that we otherwise wouldn't have done during our time in Honolulu. Kurt and Harry were fantastic guides, and the highlights were definitely the snorkeling / swimming seeing turtles, and the fun stories and info from our guides!
LeeAnn
Awesome tour! Josh is very knowledgeable and full of Aloha. The stops with the local food and businesses are the best. I definitely say of the tent with the guys that have pineapple with li hing powder and coconut bread are a must try! Lunch was delicious also. We were lucky enough to see a Hawaiian Monk Seal as well. An amazing experience that I now reccomend to my clients as a travel agent, as well as my family and friends.
Kayla Dembek
Justin our tour guide and Joe our driver were amazing. You could tell they knew and enjoyed what they were talking about. It was a great experience all around. We would definitely do it again.
Isaias Gonzalez
Highly recommend this tour! Justin was a great guide, gave lots of info on the history of the island and the current issues locals face. He was very attentive and welcoming. First time snorkeling was a good experience (saw several turtles up close). Overall great experience!
Becky C
The ocean was too rough to see the turtles, however, the remaining tour did NOT disappoint! We got to see SO MUCH of the beautiful Oahu island in ONE day!! So much to take in! LOVED IT!!!! I’d recommend it to everyone! So pleasant and so much to see!
Angela D
The tour with Justin was great, it is a long tour but you get to see a great deal of historic sites and awesome scenery. If you are visiting Hawaii this a great way to get around all the islands without getting lost. It does cost $125-140 per person.
Mobster Mike
Best tour guide out there! Nevin, our tour guide, is an awesome dude. Before booking the tour, I was skeptical. I figured I could just tour the island myself. Absolutely not the case and having Nevin as our tour guide was worth it. He knew so much about Hawaii that you could feel his passion for the islands. He shared amazing stories about the history of the islands. He was super chill and kind to all of the guest on board our tour. He knew so much about each stop and pointed out amazing spots along the way. I could not have asked for a better tour guide and hope to have a guy like Nevin for any tour that I take.
Ellie Rood
What a fun tour, entertaining and educational. Great views and food stops! Thank you Kurt and Harry!
Rissa Witul
We had a really great experience! Our tour guide, Justin, was very knowledgeable and funny. We’ve been to Hawaii several times but we learned a lot on this tour. We definitely recommend this tour to everyone!
Matt Welton
Pretty good tour overall. We've seen a bunch of things, unfortunately the waves were too strong to snorkel with turtles but overall had a nice time exploring the island of Oahu. Our guide Nevin was very knowledgeable about Hawaiian history.
Elizabeth Greening
A great day out - our guide was Nevin and he did an amazing commentary - kept the whole day interesting. Trip ran smooth and on time - we all enjoyed it. Turtles were out! And that pineapple with red powder is good
Alex Dawson
We had an amazing trip on the circle island tour. Kurt, our guide, and Harry, the driver, really made the trip fun and unique. The highlight was definitely snorkeling with the turtles. If you want to see the real Hawaii, book this tour!
M Rodz
The driver Mitchell was kind and greeted us. While the tour guide Justin was very knowledgeable and high energy! He was also really kind, funny and entertaining overall. I would highly recommend!
Kaara Williams-Davis
We had an absolutely wonderful tour with Nevin and Victor! Nevin was so knowledgeable and insightful in the Hawaiian history and culture. They were very accommodating and thoughtful in making sure everyone was taken care of and on schedule with where they needed to be. We had a blast and would recommend them anytime! Mahalo!!!
Ethan Hoogerdyk
Kurt was an incredible guide just as Harry was an incredible driver. Kurt has a great sense of humour and all of the destinations were highly entertaining. Highly recommend to anyone looking to explore the Circle Islands.
Tammy Sparks
The tour was a great way to see sights other than Honolulu and see highlights in one day. Josh was an awesome tour guide.
My only complaint was the place where we changed back into our clothes after swimming. It was pretty nasty. I don’t know why we didn’t change where we swam. It was roomier and much cleaner.
It was well worth the price and we did see turtles!
Cathy Corredor
First choice! Nevin was awesome! Very knowledgeable. Loved seeing the turtles. I live history and details and Nevin provided a lot of fun information. I did a lot of research on all the circle island tours and chose this one and it was the right choice! I wanted a smaller air conditioned vehicle, not a huge bus with tons of people, and this one was just right!
Natalie
My husband and I had a wonderful time on this tour! Joe was a great driver, and Justin was a totally awesome tour guide. They both made the experience so much more fun!!
Ashley Davis
Justin and Mitchell were amazing tour guides. They are on time so if it says that you are being picked up from your Hotel (on anywhere for that matter) at a certain time, they are on time! Justin was very knowledgeable of the island and you experience 85% to 90% of the island on this tour. Loved every minute of it! Make sure to bring a swimsuit to swim on the beach, that’s an experience you would like to experience. Mitchell was a great driver, very safe, good speed and very helpful as well. 10/10 highly recommend if you would like to experience this entire island (especially if this is your first time visiting Hawaii)!
Ps. Yes you do see turtles on this tour! You also do stop for lunch, make sure to bring cash, about $60-$80 will be just enough for sure.
Raymond Silveria
The Driver and our guide Johnny were awesome. Johnny was very knowledgeable of the Hawaiian culture and history of the Islands. He had a great personality and kept everyone entertained for the ride between sights.
Cameron Rhodes
Kurt was spectacular! The tour was amazing. Highly recommend to anyone that wants to escape the city. Hawaii is not Waikiki. Don’t just stay in Waikiki you will regret it.
Kurt…. Thanks for draining the salt out of the ocean. Also, Kurt went above and beyond by paving the roads in north shore to ensure we had a smooth ride. Thank god for Kurt.
JD Donnelly
Justin made the trip awesome. Very knowledgeable about the islands history, how to be safe in the water, and the fastest way to get our food.
10/10 it was a great trip and I'd recommend these guys to anyone.
Annika Marie Olsson
We really enjoyed this trip. The absolute best option to see Oahu! Our guide Johnny made sure that we were ahead of all other tours, thereby saving lots of time. We saw several turtels, but also different kinds of fish during the snorkelling.
The local guide that taught us about Oahu's nature and the turtles was amazing.
Annika&Carina
Sweden
Sara Stachura
Outstanding tour of Oahu. Our guide took us to several local spots, and provided a lot of historical info. Only request would be to show us or explain how to use the snorkeling equipment. It was my first time and I had no idea.
Tina W
This tour was well worth it, Kirt and Harry enjoy what they do and make the tour informative and fun. Small group of people, smaller van but plenty of room and you get to know the people your touring with. I would recommend. If you want to see sea turtles and learn a little about Oahu Hawaii Turtle tour is a great. Ask to go with Kirt and Harry . 🙂
Wanda Hall
The tour was fantastic Justin was very knowledgeable of the history of Hawaii. He made sure everyone was comfortable and having a great time though out the tour. The ride was amazing.

Thank you King Mike for the amazing tour. I enjoyed the knowledge and history of the island. Great humor and commentary. Seeing the sea turtles were beautiful. My 2 young boys will never forget this. Lunch stop was delicious just don’t forget cash like they tell you when you book.
Tata Lawton
Lovely tour with a small group that we got to meet with and spend the day! Lots of beaches and great opportunity to swim with the turtles!
Kurt Lemke
We took the "Renagade" tour (Went backwards from the posted itinerary). Trust your guides to know when the crowds will be at each section. Uncle Keith and Renaissance Man Mike were awesome and funny with their knowledge of the area as well as local places to stop and refresh. I love supporting local shops and farms. Stopping for snacks at a local farm is a must! Love these guys! If you want to spend a lot of time at Fole (take the train tour or the Pinapple maze), do that on a while day trip for you own as it can take up to 4 hours. Snorkeling at the Tuttle Reef gives you a great opportunity to see the turtles from the shore and explore the reef on your own.
SAMMY GOLD
We thoroughly enjoyed our time. Our tour guide was Neven - passionately enjoys his job. Would recommend to anyone who wants to know history and culture of Hawaii while visiting popular tourist sites.
Madhu Ayyagari
The tour on Dec 28th, 2022 was ok, covering a few good locations. Greg, the tour guide, was great. Friendly, knowledgeable and communicative. However, the snorkeling experience - that’s supposed to be the highlight - was a dud! Very shallow, full of rocks, faulty equipment (few of our snorkel tubes came off midway😡) and lots of traffic with surfers. Several bruises to those of us with good swimming experience. Overall, underwhelming although we tried to make the best of it. I forgot my hiking shoes in the bus that I later called about, but there was no response so far and we left the island.
Rhonda Patterson
Our tour guide Nevin was great. It is unbelievable how knowledgeable he was, only being 21. I would definitely recommend this tour if you’d like to see the island and stop at several cool spots.
Victoria Keen
Justin and Mitchell were amazing. So knowledgable and so fun to be with. I loved the cove, but the turtles were definitely more toward the reef, which you can't swim too. Best to get out of the water and find turtles from the beach!
Carol San Felipe
Josh was our tour guide; he was funny and very accommodating, making sure no one is left behind
Stella Tsaneva
Mike was an awesome tour guide! It was wonderful to explore the island with him and get to see some beautiful views, swim with turtles, go to a macadamia nut farm, and eat some of the best pineapple at Dole. We also got some history lessons while at it :) 10/10 would recommend!
Dave B
What a fantastic experience! Our guide, Justin, was so knowledgeable and kind. He knows the history of the island and shares his knowledge freely. We were able to see and learn so much! We highly recommend North Shore Hawaii Turtle Tours!
Jennifer Flores Zamot
Nevin was my guide and he was incredible! Extremely informative and told stories about the island as we were traveling from destination to destination. 10 out of 10 would highly recommend touring with them!
nina ewing
Kurt and Harry were the best! I had the best day getting to see so many new things in Hawaii! I highly recommend this tour but more specifically this tour by Kurt and Harry! This is experience is the best!
Helena Leucke
Awesome Trip!! Kurt and Harry are a very fun duo and the tour shows you around the whole island! Would definitely recommend especially for people who want to explore and see more than just Waikiki beach!
Kaden Boren
Mike is an absolute professional when it comes to relating and relaying the information of the land. Cousin Joe was a gentle driver yet he never missed a time hack. Only go with these two if you want to have a good time. If you are a known or self identified buzz kill go with Jordan, not mike.
Flynt Ennis
Justin the guide was great, Joe the driver was an enigmatic, mysterious force to be reckoned with. His handling of our magical turtle bus was of the stuff of legends. Once done with the journey, he returned to the mist, to await the next group of souls to ferry around the island.
robert mastriano
The turtle tour was a great day! Johnny our tour guide made the day fun by sharing some Hawaiian history with us. I would highly recommend going on a tour with Johnny. Great guy
Margo Lewis
Our driver, Justin, was fantastic. Great historical and pop culture information. Tips and advice on where to visit on our own. Do it at the beginning of your trip and take swim shoes in addition to regular shoes for the rocky beaches.
Yung Waifu
This is such a great tour. Our guide Nevin was incredible. He was so informative while being a funny and a calming presence. He made the day fantastic!! I highly recommend this tour!
Priscilla Oxyer
Johnny was our tour guide. I highly recommend him. He is very friendly, knowledgeable regarding Hawaii history. I also recommend Joe as the driver. He is a safe and good driver.
Bessie Y.
We enjoyed this full-day tour of the island. Justin is a true islanders and knows everything about the island, i.e. history, culture, surfing, etc. Justin is very energetic and talked about pretty much everything we saw along the route. He also shared the recent developments on the islands, both good and bad. This tour really enriched our experience of travel in Hawaii. We love it and would highly recommend to anyone visiting Honolulu.
Febianna Gonzalez
Great tour. Our guide Nevin was very knowledgeable, keep us on time, and a general pleasure. We got to see many beautiful places and learn about the history of the island.
Jessica Stevens
King Mike was very entertaining and knowledgeable about the island. He recommended a lot of local food places and tourist spots to our group. He was great at keeping the group engaged the entire day.
Nichole Vaughn
Kurt & Eric made our trip around the island a blast, laughing from the first stop to the last! Our kids are 12 & 16 and they loved it too! We also appreciated the small intimate group size. Worth every penny!🌺 …
Erin Miles
Greg, our tour guide was great. Only issue was one of our party was a vegetarian and although the description specifically stated lunch had vegetarian options it did not. Greg did make an additional stop at McDonalds for us to be able to purchase lunch, which was much appreciated.
Dani Morelli
It was so nice to get out of Waikiki and explore the island! We had younger children (ages 7 and 6) and they were entertained the whole day. Kurt and Harry were amazing!
Eddie Reynolds
Kurt and Harry are great at what they do. They made us feel like family and gave us the best experience we could get. They were very good at making people laugh and have a great time.
Teressa Leeds
Justin was very knowledgeable and Harry was an extremely skilled and patient driver! The scenery was stunning. Do this on your first or second day so you know where to go to venture out of Waikiki!
Michelle Garcia
Overall, very happy with the experience. We were picked up on time, our tour guide, Mike was very entertaining. I also enjoyed all the local stops along the way. My favorite was the fresh fruit stand. My only disappointment was where the turtle siting was. The turtles were there and we did see them, but the snorkeling area had so much coral and our feet got scraped pretty bad. I would highly recommend bringing water shoes or wearing flippers. But overall, it was great with this being our first time to hawaii
Keith Wilson
Our tour guide, Johnny Aloha made this tour fun ! His local knowledge, energy and humor was wonderful. He also made extra photo stops as we went. I would recommend turtle tours to anyone looming for a fun adventure in hawaii.
Ivania Perez
Fun tour! Mike was awesome, he had so many stories and facts to tell about Hawaii. I liked being able to see many places in one day and thought it was good time at each location
Makenzie Bess
Justin the tour guide was amazing!! Very knowledgeable and entertaining. Also Mitch our driver was great! Highly recommend taking this tour and being able to see different parts of the island! Great price as well.
Hannah Mullen
Tour was awesome!!! Justin was great he was extremely knowledgeable of the island and taught us to respect the sea life Food was delicious he knows all the hidden place’s that only locals would know I would do it again just to learn more from Justin Joe was also an awesome driver
Eric Barclay
Had a great day with Kurt and Harry. Both very welcoming and knowledgeable about Hawaii's heritage and traditions. There was good banter back and forth all day too 👍 …
Laura Mulhern
Amazing day! We saw many turtles while snorkeling. Our guide, King Mike, was funny, informative and accomodating. He made the trip that much more enjoyable.
Lori Coleman-Belzer

Brittani Rebeiz
My husband and I had so much fun on this tour! Turtles were the highlight. Nevin was our guide and he was so knowledgeable about all things Hawaii! Highly recommend!
Alisia Metante
We had Johnny as our tourguide and Vic as our driver. The two of them made a great team in showing all of us around the island. We made it all in good timing and the information throughout was terrific I would highly recommend it for that immersive experience :)
sarah murphy
Kurt and Harry made this trip! Insightful island info and lots of laughs along the way :) Turtle snorkelling was the best part, closely followed by dole pineapple whip and lunch by the river. If you’re looking to do a tour of Hawaii, book with Hawaii Turtle Tours!
Kanika Davis
Tour was great. We got to see a lot of beautiful views across the island while learning the history. Tour guide and bus driver were awesome.
Gina Stott
omg the cruise was great!! Captain n her crew were astounding. So impressed with Ryan the tour leader, friendly , engaging n hard working all while doing it with a smile, order and professionalism. Grest experience highly recommend to all.
Jill Danes
Hawaii turtle tours was fantastic. Starting from our tour guide Justin who was so knowledgeable on everything Oahu!! He was fun and interested in his tour group, as well as full of interesting facts.He showed us all we could do on the island . Mitch our driver was lovely and a great driver. The tour ran on time and was really a great taste of Oahu. Thank you Hawaiian turtle tours.
James Nguyen
I love the tour guy, and I appreciate his experience. Since the title of the tour Hawaii Turtle Tours, I can not give 5 stars for swimming almost 30 then I see only one turtle. This would be a great tour for 1st time in Hawaii. James
Its Brittney
Great tour. Mike and Cousin Joe make for excellent hosts. Mike was very informative and funny. They took us to local favorites eateries and beaches, as well as a macadamia nut farm.
Alyssa Gore
Nevin was our tour guide and he was so great! Learned so much about the island and it’s history and we loved that he pointed out things to do that you wouldn’t normally come across as a tourist. 10/10 recommend.
Cynthia Bourne
Kurt and Harry were the best tour guide and driver one can have!! Great history lessons along the way and Kurt is one of the best! So much fun spending a day as a family exploring the island of Oahu with them!
Katrine Razniak
This was fantastic, Justin was so informative and hilarious, we really enjoyed the tour. This was a great way to get acquainted with beautiful spots on the island that we never would have found otherwise. The tour was an incredible price for a great all day tour. Definitely would recommend to everyone.
Tomomi Glover
Kurt and Long were fantastic. Great information, laughs, and navigating the weather also. We saw turtles, lunch was delicious, and our boys had a great time too. Thanks!
Emily Goldman
The tour was amazing!! Kurt and Harry make it even better. Kurt is not only hilarious, but he also know what he’s talking about. 100/10
Cory Mcfadden
Absolutely amazing time with our guide Mike and our driver Mitch! It did rain during the drive however Mike made it a fun and enjoyable trip with some jokes and a TON OF INFORMATION!!! Once we got to the beach the weather cleared and we had a fantastic experience!! Thanks so much for everything!
Chris McKenna
Kurt was an awesome guide and the whole experience went off without a hitch. Highly recommend. Only downside is you’re a little rushed at some of the stops but that’s the nature of the beast when trying to fit so much into a one day tour.
David Mckinnon
Justin was amazing. Professional, excellent presentation of the sites and took care of everyone.
Zeronetic 1
Overall a good tour of Oahu. If you have more time then go for seperate snorkeling trip as this tour does have shorter time limit. Our guide Nevin was very good and explained lot of the things to us. Worth the money. Even got to see turtles very close.
Sam Manji
Great experience with a great tour guide and highly recommend. He gave a deep understanding of the local environments which I truly appreciated. Only issue was I that I wish the tour was longer or the stops along the route where longer.
Edmund Li
I've been on many tours and not often you get a tour like this. Kurt and Harry are one of the best in business, very informative of history and landscape of Hawaii. The places we went to were amazing, we got to see popular point of interest and snorkeling with turtles.
I would highly recommend anyone looking for a tour around the island to definitely give this a go.
Elisabeth Hart
If the mark of a great tour is that you make new friends, and you miss your tour guide, then this was certainly that. Everyone on the tour was great, I was travelling by myself but never felt alone, and I miss Justin!
Fernando Benitez
This tour is one the best grand circle island tours I’ve taken in Oahu. The view of the sea turtles was phenomenal, and Justin is the best tour guide. Thank so much for a wonderful experience!
Amy
We had a great time on this tour- Kurt and Eric were great! Kurt is a knowledgeable and entertaining tour guide, and you can see he is very kind and caring as well. This tour was a great way to see the island and Kurt made it fun for everyone.
Anastasia Quanbeck
Very knowledgeable and personable guide. We saw lots of sea turtles and enjoyed learning about local history and plants on the island. It was great letting someone else do the driving!
Victoria A
Nevin was our tour guide and he did an amazing job!! We learned a lot about Oahu and the history of Hawaii. He was very patient and did a great job explaining everything.
Adrian Richards
Nevin was an amazing tour guide. He was helpful and very knowledgeable of the island and its history 🏝️. He recommended the best spots to visit on the island for sightseeing, pictures and food. I definitely will book another a tour with him, NEVIN is Wonderful. …
J.A. Heath
A very general tour of the island.
The lunch stop was very disappointing. The pork was very bland and there was not very much of it for the price. The salad and ours dressing was absolutely tasteless as was the rice. The spicy shrimp was good, but again., the sides were very disappointing.
The "ambiance " of the place was sad. It looked like they were trying to provide some kind of a family themed outing but fell very short of that. Perhaps we visited at a bad time?? Who knows??
Not sure why this place was chosen after passing numerous other stops that looked more appealing???
Would have rather spent more time at the Dole Plantation and had lunch there.
Rachel Hickman
Johnny was the best tour guide ever! Super friendly and extremely informative! We got to see sea turtles and giant waves! Would 10/10 recommend!
Wendi Ashton
Definitely recommend. We took the turtle tour bus on our first day there, and it was wonderful. The tour guides were great. We learned a lot of great Hawaiian history and it gave us ideas on where to go for the rest of the week. Thank you for an amazing experience.
Laura Hawkins
The tour was terrific. Our guide, Mike, did a fantastic job. He was full of all kinds of interesting trivia and bits of history. I would definitely take another tour with him as the guide.
heidi furn
Great Tour! Loved every stop, every fruit, macadamia nuts, and drinks, as well as the turtles. But most of all, loved all the history of Hawaii, culture, language, legends and so on i got to learned from Nevin’s wonderful narration. He is so knowledgeable and engaging!
Maura Kenny
We had the best time today, at the circle Island Tour with snorkeling. Our tour guide, Kurt and driver, Victor, were awesome! They both were so knowledgeable, kind & funny. They made todays experience the best!!!
Josh Brown
Johnny was a great guide and Victor was a marvelous driver. He had great vibes and pushed to get us on time to each spot and home. Can't recommend enough.

cameron Steele
Me and my wife had such an amazing day out with Kurk & Harry. Made the whole group feel like Ohana (family). Kurk was super knowledgeable and he was very funny as well. Made the journey such a memorable experience.
John Neil
Amazing tour! Great experience with Kurt and Eric. Saw several turtles snorkeling and thought the macadamia nut farm is a hidden gem. Definitely a must do whether it is your first time or tenth time to Oahu. First class!
waysidesplash7
I very much enjoyed the trip, Steve and Justin were amazing. They provided a fun and safe service and were very considerate and interactive. The fun kept coming and I learned so much from Justin. I would definitely book another trip with them in the future.
Deborah East
We had a great time on this tour! At first, it seemed strange that we were booking a tour on the street in Waikiki. We were approached many times by the tour companies, but Kevin was different. He was very enthusiastic about the island and all it has to offer. He wasn’t pushy about getting us to sign up and didn’t require us to pay until the morning of the tour. We also looked up their reviews on TripAdvisor and there was nothing but glowing reviews. As for the tour, it was a great way to spend a day and definitely worth the price we paid. We went to The jumping rock, pipeline beach, snorkeling with turtles, paddle boarding, dole plantation and it included lunch. Our guides were Daniel and Domian and they were fun, considerate and very helpful. We kept a very easy and fun pace for the day. They also had some great suggestions for other things to do on the island. We would definitely go back to them for our next tour.
iguette banza
It was my first time in Hawaii and I would definitely recommend this tour to everyone that comes to Hawaii and Johnny was the best tour guide that you could ask for. I enjoyed every single part of this tour.

Gabriella Lizarde
Awesome tour! My sister and I did the island tour of Oahu and had a great day. Got to snorkel, sightsee, and take a trip to the dole plantation. Justin did a great job and was very knowledgeable about Hawaii!
Erica Booker
Nevin was very knowledgeable of everything. He was patient with us and was a great tour guide for the day. Although this tour was great I would’ve loved to actually stop at more places instead of just having to grab a picture riding by. Overall I really enjoyed myself and met some great people. Mahalo Nevin and Hawaii Turtle Tours Mahalo!
Kelly Medina
My husband and I had a great time. Our tour guys were harry and Kurt two were fantastic. I would recommend this to her with Harry and Kurt to my family and friends.

Laura Fuller
Greg was our tour guide around the island to the North Shore to swim with the turtles, etc., and he made the trip delightful! Definitely request Greg for your next spring/summer Hawaiian tour adventure!
Mike Kenway
Absolutely fantastic tour. Small group, low key, and our host Justin, our tour guide, was truly A+. Incredibly knowledgeable, fun, friendly, and helpful. Would love to come again.
Mary Duffy
Our guide was amazing. All the facts and trivia was appreciated. When he was told we were to have a cooler with ice. He called ahead and obtained same. Cuddo's
Linda English
The Northshore Circle Island tour was amazing!! Im glad we booked with Hawaiian Turtle Tour. The group was small so it felt more personable. We couldn’t have asked for a better tour guide. Justin was funny and very informative. We learned alot about the island and some good spots to go off of our resort. The locals at the places we stopped were friendly as well.
Robert Graham (Graak)
Tour was good, didn't see a single turtle snorkeling which was a huge disappointment. The water was very merky. Tour guide was great and stops were good. Maybe just a bad day to see turtles.
brianna provencio
Our tour guide was so great and funny! He was so sweet letting my girls speak into the microphone at times. Definitely recommend King Mike!!!!
Turner Automotive ALEX MARIN

Gloria Arce
Nevin and Victor were outstanding!! Specialty Nevin very knowledgeable and friendly and helpful.
Katie Foster
If you think you’re going to see turtles like the picture- NO. We didn’t see any whilst snorkeling but saw them from the shore popping their heads up. Nevin our guide provided a lot of interesting information around each stop and it’s history, credit to him.
Good Good Wood
Tour was so fun! We saw so many turtles and enjoyed all of the locations we went to. Nevin was a Great Guide, super fun, and so knowledgeable about everything Hawaii!

R. Lee Aylor
Mike did a great job keeping everything organized and offering personal reflections on good places to go and see. Lots of great stories. There was never a dull moment.
Lizett Olivares
The private tour was just what we needed to get around the island in one day. Craig was nice and took us to a delicious authentic Hawaiian eatery. My only negative was the beach stop to find the turtles. The cove is not the prettiest of all of the beaches you drive by on the island... and no turtles. :(
Kaley Taylor
Justin and Joe were a blast! If you’re looking for something to do while in Waikiki, BOOK THIS TOUR!
Carmen Prach
Justin was a terrific tour guide! As a Hawaiian native he was super informative about the island. Definitely recommend!

Brooke Robinson
So great!!! Highly recommend!! King Mike the tour guide was extremely informative and has the best personality!!
Rita Rudnik
Had a great time during the circle tour of Oahu. Justin is an amazing guide, and seeing quite a few turtles was a highlight of the day! The last 30 minute stop at the pineapple souvenir shop was a bit too long, though, I wish we did some cultural or nature activity instead - that’s the only reason to give 4 stars
Rob Bell
Like others stated the ac on the bus didnt works but this was an amazing way to see the island. Tour guide Mike was knowledgeable and funny driver Matt kept the show moving safely and comfortably (less the a.c.) frequent stops at breathtaking and culturally rich sites. Arguably the most effective way to plan out the rest of or future trips to Oahu.
Lisa Parker
Had a wonderful time and saw so many beautiful views!! The tour guide, Johnny was so fun and we learned so much about the Island from him.
Elsie Meza
Justin was our tour guide and he was so energetic/fun. Highly recommend this tour. You get a chance to view all parts of the island.
Keyona Jones
This was an amazing tour of Honolulu, Hawaii! We saw so much of the island this way. The Macadamia Nut Farm was good and they had a lot of different flavors to sample. Lunch was good, I got the chicken. On our way to the turtle snorkeling, we saw a Monk Seal sleeping on the beach. Snorkeling was amazing and I saw one in the ocean and one on the beach. I also enjoyed stopping at the Dole Plantation to eat the Dole whip. Dan was a fun and enjoyable tour guide. The tour was small and intimate. I definitely recommend going on this tour.
Shannon Demelo
The tour bus was on time and guides were very friendly, we learned a lot about the island and was able to see many beautiful sites. Snorkeling was fun and saw 3 turtles!
Chris Ambrose
One, if not the best tours you can be on. Driver Harry and tour guide Kurt are a great team with amazing knowledge of the area, always up for a laugh, and the tour ran like clockwork. Highly recommend this all the way.

Veronica Perez
Justin and Joe were wonderful! Joe’s driving was safe and great. Justin was very knowledgeable and gave a lot of great tips for all the stops. They went above and beyond to make sure we tried to see as much as possible. They even made an extra bonus stop to let us of the bus to see a Sea Monk on shore! Snorkeling at the end was a nice treat and Justin was constantly on guard to ensure everyone in our party was safe and taken care of. A great tour to start off my Hawaii adventure!
Katerina Klonis
Absolutely the highlight of our trip! Mike was hilarious, super knowledgeable with so many fun facts about the island and great recommendations for the rest of our trip. Our driver Harry was lovely too, such a great day out for our family. Only wish we had booked it for earlier in our trip. Can’t recommend this tour highly enough!
olivia garcia
Best tour ever!! Harry and Kurt were a blast. Super entertaining, punctual, and the itinerary was perfect.
Marianna Sadikyan
We booked the tour through Hilton Hawaiian Gardens and I’ve had tours before but it was nice to have Kurt and Wilbur. The drive was easy the tour was funny and informative. I loved that the stops didn’t take so long and we were back early enough to enjoy the rest of the day. You get to see most of the tourist attractions and give you a great insight of the island and the history. Pricey especially for large family’s but worth it, you get all the base sightseeing done so you can relax the rest of the time.

Our tour today with Kurt & Harry (AKA Maverick) was exceptional! We visited a wide variety of places & had many new experiences - we felt safe & well looked after the entire time. Our timing throughout the day was great as we were ahead of all the other buses and therefore had next to no wait times throughout our day! We had a delicious lunch & stopped for a variety of other snacks and treats!
I would strongly recommend this experience & you can call to request the amazing team that is Harry & Kurt!!

My sister and I wanted to explore the island of Oahu while on vacation here. In our search we found Hawaii Turtle Tours, and they did not disappoint! The tour guide Mike was informative, enthusiastic and comedic while guiding us through our daily activities. He had many fun facts about the history of Hawaii to enlighten us and create an interesting travel through the island. We visited all of the places listed and were super excited to see numerous turtles while on the beach! We also had a blast going to the Macadamia Nut Farm and the Dole plantation! Overall, I would book this tour if you are wanting to have an awesome day with great viewings, nature and company! You’ll have a blast!!

we recently moved here & for our anniversary my husband booked a tour with these guys & we were lucky enough to have Johnny as our guide! You could tell he is passionate about his job and all of Hawaii. He maintained amazing energy throughout the entire tour, never a dull moment with him. He socialized with all the guests and made sure we were informed about any and every spot we visited. 10/10, will definitely be booking and recommending Johnny as the best tour guide in Hawaii
Steve Garcia
First time on the island with my kids and I, NEVIN was VERY informative about the Island.
The trip was awesome we enjoyed it very much..especially my daughter.
I know the some of the spot we visited where kind of a short stay,but the objective of this tour is to show the island and so you can come back later on your own time.
I recommend taking this tour if you're first timer or repeat visitor to island.
Thanks Nevin for the awesome experience.

Justin the tour guide and Wilbert the driver were incredible. I would highly recommend this tour. Justin was extremely knowledgeable and gave us great recommendations and history of Hawaii! We got to experience the local fruit stands, breathtaking picturesque views, snorkeling with turtle, and the Dole plantation. Great experience!
Treasure Grill
This tour was amazing!! 10 person van, very one on one informative trip! So much information about the island, multiple stops, and amazing pictures taken by our guide Justin!!! He was very helpful through the stops telling us what we needed to know and where we needed to see! Would book again, make sure to bring your towels!!!!
Danielle Baitz
Loved it! Nevin’s communication was on point. He let us know how the day was going to pan out at the very start of the tour. His knowledge was extensive and shared with us in a fantastic story telling way. The turtles honoured us with their presence. Please try the pineapple with li hing powder at the first snack stop. You won’t regret it!
Jamb Beck
Josh made this tour a LOT of fun. He was able to point out so much about the island that we would have no way of knowing otherwise. The stops were great. The food was good. Both my husband and i were well satisfied. Joe did an excellent job driving and we had some bad rain at rush hour. The only thing i would say is that if you are seeking this tour just to see the turtles, I would pick another tour because the turtle sightings are supposed to be better early in the day and there are coves that have to have more of them than we saw. I would do this again without question and not hesitate to tell others to take this tour! Thanks Josh and Joe for a great day!
Elle Mac
Amazing tour from start to finish. We came from Ireland on our honeymoon and decided to take this tour and so glad we did. Kurt and Harry were our guide and driver and were fantastic! We enjoyed a trip to a macadamia nut farm, pineapple plantation, coffee farm and a beautiful lunch by a secluded river and my favourite was snorkelling with the turtles. Kurt and Harry were knowledgeable, professional and so much fun. Made memories to last a lifetime. Highly,highly, highly recommend this tou
Rhonda Lines
This was a definite must do!! We had a very knowledgeable tour guide Justin. He is a local who knows all about the history of the island. He made it fun!!! All of us had a great time!!! . Would do it again!!!!
Matthew Kennicott
This tour was an absolute blast and a great way to spend the day seeing Oahu!
Kurt and Harry were incredible hosts with Kurt keeping us entertained throughout the day. He was knowledgeable, funny, and great company. Harry was an expert navigator, missing every pothole on the way to North Shore.
Hitting the different sites along the way have great perspective on how different the rest of the island is from Honolulu and the hustle and bustle of Waikiki. It’s peaceful and beautiful on the other side and these guys do a great job of showing every bit of the paradise that is Hawaii.
Caro Slns
This tour was awesome! Josh was the best tour guide, make sure to take some cash for lunch and for spending at the fruit stands.100% recomended🤙🏼 …
Dmitry Panich
A fantastic tour! Well worth the $$. Johnny was the best guide I've ever had on any tour I've taken, and I've taken many. He showed us great spots where we stopped which weren't even included in the tour description. We swam around with the turtles at the best beaches, enjoyed great food, and his wonderful sense of humor along with his vast knowledge Hawaiian history and landmarks. Recommend this one to everyone, visitors and locals alike. Thank you Hawaii Turtle Tours!
Sarah
Nevin was an awesome guide. Very friendly and extremely knowledgeable. We had a great day and I’d recommend everyone to do this day tour.
kris davis

Scott Kitchens
Great tour, the food was amazing, all the stops and Kurt and Harry were fantastic host very informative.
Johnny Little
Nevin was a great Tour Guide ! Very funny, he was very knowledgeable about the Big Island and it’s fascinating history! He made the time go by fast and the trip very interesting! Great experience and Nevin is a great guy! Definitely ask for him and he will surely take care of you!
Michael Jung
Our tour guide, nevon, was most definitely one of the best tour guides and genuinely a great guy. All throughout our tour he would tell us story about our destinations and history of Hawaii! Not only was he just wonderful, the tour itself was fun and exciting. Can’t forget the sea turtles, the sea turtles were cute and a decent size BUT do not get close to them! You are in their home and please respect them and their habitat!
Oh for the first stop I 100% recommend the pineapples!!! So sweet nothing quite like the pineapples like the ones in Hawaii.
Sorry I know this review is all over the place but HONESTLY recommend if your here on vacation or a local who want to see some sea turtles and other beautiful areas in Hawaii!!!
Fernando Horton
We had an awesome tour. Justin was so knowledgeable about the history of Hawaii and he knew so many interesting facts. This tour was a great end to our vacation. Thanks again for a fun tour.
dianna duarte
Justin was very uplifting and informative about the whole trip. He showed us around to some amazing places around the island. Very happy to have booked this tour with this awesome tour guide.
Jason Craske
Joe the driver got us everywhere safely and on time and Kurt the tour guide was a hilarious dad joke spewing guy who was very knowledgable about the island and the locations we stopped at. Swimming with turtles is awesome and its an all around great tour and I highly recommend. PS: You're lucky if you get Kurt and Joe!
Angelica Castaneda
Loved the tour. Justin, our tour guide, was full of Hawaii knowledge. Even shared personal Hawaiian history. We were taken to many small stops that support small businesses. Highly recommend.
Salvador Mendez
It was an awesome experience! Mike was our guide, really funny and knew how to beat out the other guides. We experienced everything before every other tour companies. So for that mike, and my wife and I thank you. Shout out cousin Victor the driver keep that AC going!
Adela Rubalcado
Loved Kurt and Harry the absolute best duo! You will NOT want to book with any other company. Informative, fun, interactive it’s everything you can wish in an island tour. Kurt kept us laughing the entire time. We truly felt like ohana when we left.
Heather Morris
Worth every penny! Our guide Justin was incredibly knowledgeable - we were able to learn about the history and nature of the island from a local perspective and see many sites and locations that we would not have otherwise visited. He gave so many tips on what to do and where to go on the island. And SEA TURTLES!!! So many sea turtles. My only regret is not taking this tour earlier in our trip so we could have utilized more of our new knowledge. If you are looking for a great way to spend a day, and learn how to optimize the remainder of your time on the islands this tour is a must.
Patrick Paszkowski
King mike great. Make sure to meet the massive pineapple vendor. He said he was natty but that man looked juiced out his noggin.10/10
Michael Johnson
Guide was great and super friendly! We had a little girl get sick on her tummy and he was very helpful with her. The only thing was when we got to snorkel location they didn't have gear with them. Finally another bus came with it but didn't have enough for everyone. My wife and I had to share. Make sure if you are going to snorkel they have the gear.
Audrey Farmer
This was totally not what I expected. I thought I we were getting dropped off to snorkel with sea Turtles but, we paid for a full day tour and ended with snorkeling. David and cousin Joe did an AWESOME tour for everyone. Answered questions, made everyone laugh, had alot of great information places to go eat with family if you are looking for great meal deals, shopping, had very good information of the island. I would definitely most recommend David and cousin Joe again not only for myself but to those who have no idea what goes on here. But this is an all day tour guide 👍🏼
Christine Surh
We had a wonderful day on our private tour. Johnny was a great guide! He planned out the day perfectly to hit all the places we had requested and more.
Jorge Mier
Our tour guide Josh was amazing. We hired him for a private tour, he was knowledgeable and courteous. Would recommend a private tour. We had 5 in our party and he was able to customize it for our needs.
Jenny Harper
I cannot recommend Hawaii Turtle Tours enough. Mike was a humorous and informative tour guide and I learned so much about Hawaii and the island of Oahu. The tour includes breathtaking views and opportunities to support local businesses. If you are considering doing a tour, make sure it is this one!
Blair Dohman
One of our last days here and it was a perfect day for the tour. Mike and cousin Joe were the perfect tour guides. They knew what to hit and when to hit them to avoid crowds. Lunch h was delicious and the conversation and the facts and teachings they shared made it 100 times better. I cant recommend this tour enough. Hit all the highlights of Oahu and saw so many cool things and learned alot about the history of the Island. Snorkeling and seeing several turtles was just the icing on the cake on top of an already amazing tour.
Charissa Yavtucovich
What an amazing experience! The day was super fun filled with so many things. Rahul our driver was awesome and Johnny Aloha, our tour guide, made the day exciting, informative and entertaining!
Steve Quayhackx
The tour guide Johnny Aloha was very knowledgeable and was extremely friendly. The turtle experience was fantastic. Highly Recommend.
Carol Ross
Loved every minute. Great overview of the island that helped us plan the rest of our stay. Our guide, Johnny, was very knowledgeable and pulled everyone on the bus into the experience. But the snorkeling with the turtles was my absolute favorite part.
Tiffany Chen
We had a fantastic time with our guide Nevin, who was super knowledgeable and easy to listen to. We enjoyed learning about the history of the island. We saw so many turtles that day! A great way to start off the trip, especially if you are new to Oahu. Definitely recommend!
Penny Austrie
Justin was a great tour guide!!! He knew alot of great information and was very kind!!! Would recommend for sure!!!
Linda Bukowski
Kurt & Harry were so much fun! I highly recommend if you take this tour you request them to be your driver and tour guide. Kurt will inform and entertain from start to finish. He will leave you with great memories and great laughs!
Michelle Peterson
Hawaii Turtle Tours was amazing and our tour guide Johnny went above and beyond! He took us on the full island circle with snorkeling and we saw numerous turtles.
We booked a group tour and ended up with a private tour which we we able to customise, his knowledge was great and we learnt so much.
Thanks Johnny and Turtle Tours for an awesome day!!!
Rebecca Billett
Our guide Justin was full of knowledge & made the day a bit more fun.
The itinerary on website said a stop at Diamond Head which we didn't do. The bus was clean and tidy and comfortable. We saw alot of North Shore that we wouldn't have if we didn't do this tour
Dan Alarid
Wonderful island circle with an excellent driver and knowledgeable, funny tour guide who kept us entertained all the way around. The sites were many of the islands landmarks and picture scenery. I certainly would recommend it to tourists!
Sunshine Rhone
This was a great tour. Not only did we get a comprehensive overview of the island, Justin included history, legends, and current issues in such a way as to inform and educate without lecturing. Everything was timed beautifully with enough time to look around and note key points of interest without feeling too rushed or getting bored. I would recommend this tour to anyone wanting an entertaining and informative overview of the island.
Leslie Vios
Nevin is a fantastic guide with lots of great knowledge about Hawaii history and the island of Oahu. The turtle tour is a fun way to see the north part of the island. We ate our way there and back and I like that we supported many local businesses. We did see turtles at the beach but they were better viewed from the beach then in the water. Still a beautiful spot to snorkel. I really appreciate not having to drive and being able to just take in the scenery. Thanks much!
Jenida Cabrera
Justin and harry we amazing! Made the tour a lot of fun! Harry making the ride safe and parking the bus in any shade he could and Justin having a blast teaching us which I may add who is very knowledgeable of Oahu and the history! Plus they both waited and made sure there was no one left behind😁 I would do it again and again and definitely would tell other tourist they have to do it… I didn’t know much about Hawai’i and now I respect the island of Oahu so much more! Thank you for a great experience you guys!!!
Lalaine Monteclaro
Great tour when you have limited time! Our guide Nevin was informative but chill and flexible so he made the tour fun yet full of history and culture! He is a local so he has great tips! The bus was comfy and clean - really great to book for family and friends with a small group of about 20- the bus will be all yours! Thank you!
Isabelle Bishop
We had a wonderful time with our tour guide, Justin. He has been on the island his whole life. Justin brings you into his world of an authentic Hawaii experience. Swimming with the turtles is an amazing experience. There is a lifeguard on duty, so you feel safe.
Patricia Graham
Mike our tour guide was great. Very informative. Mitch the driver was great.
Ken Tracey
We had a great time Kurt and Harry was very excited to see all of us on the tour. He made us all feel like family. I would definitely recommend Hawaii Turtle Tour to my friends and family and also for them to request Kurt as their tour guide and Harry as the driver. The tour was an amazing experience which we will remember for years
Carolyn Petterson
Justin was a great tour guide! Very energetic and knowledgeable. We chose the private tour and thoroughly enjoyed our day. Highly suggest this tour to anyone new to the island!
Michelle Coombs
Mike and Cousin Joe are absolutely amazing!! Been coming to Oahu over 25 yrs now and still learned so much today while laughing and having a great day.
We did the north shore snorkel tour with them and will definitely tell anyone visiting to get on this bus. Great job!!
Cheryl Waters
Spending the day with Josh our guide and Lisa our driver was such a fantastic trip. It's apparent Josh had lived his entire life here and had such knowledge of not only all the places we visited but the Entire island. He was the friendliest and most pleasant person I've met on our visit to date. He kept me laughing and engaged the entire day. Having a guide and a driver who know so many facts and stories to share with our group was a lucky find. I would recommend them both and this tour to all who want an outstanding day!!! Mahalo until we meet again!
Judy Novak
This tour was excellent! The tour guide was knowledgeable and a friendly guy. I enjoyed snorkeling and seeing the turtles!
Chelzea G. Azares
Mike and Uncle Jo were great today despite the quick change of itinerary due to a bridge partially collapsing over night. We had a great time and enjoyed the tour, we learnt a lot about Oahu and the timings at all the stops were perfect. We didn’t feel rushed at all!
Mahalo Mike and Uncle Jo all the way from Sydney, Australia
Lisa Davis
The tour was very good!! Sevass the tour guide made it extremely interesting as he was very knowledgeable. He also made the tour very convenient on all our stops. It was my first time to Hawaii and I would definitely recommend this tour for the sights as well as the guide Sevass and driver Victor. They really made it that extra special!!!!
griselda gomez
The tour with Mike and Harry is an experience that I would recommend to everyone! Definitely worth the price! Loved the bus with big windows & had AC during the hot - humid weather which was a bonus… Mike is hilarious and made time and the entire trip enjoyable
Gris Castro
Mike was so Awesome and laid back. His jokes are the best. Enjoyed everything about the tour. Also thanks to cousin Joe being a safe driver.
Destiny Cantu
Hands down the best guided tour experience! Justin was so knowledgeable and friendly! We had a great time! Highly recommend scheduling a private tour if you are a larger group. It is WORTH IT.
Jane Adcock
We spent a phenomenal day with Kurt and Harry touring the Island of Oahu, including snorkeling with turtles. The laughter kept going all day and we appreciated Kurt’s extensive knowledge of the island. We highly recommend this tour!
