Our original tour was cancelled so we were upgraded to a full day tour around the island of Oahu. This was an excellent tour and our tour guide (Garfield) was awesome. He was extremely helpful and full of knowledge of Oahu. We had a great day and can recommend the pineapple icecream. We highly recommend this tour.

Escape to another Hawaiian island for a day on this all-inclusive island-hopping tour. Indulge on your vacation and leave the planning to us! Interisland roundtrip airfare from Oahu to Kauai, roundtrip transportation from the Lihue Airport (LIH), a sightseeing land tour and lunch amidst the tropical splendor of Kauai. Mark Twain nicknamed Waimea Canyon the "Grand Canyon of the Pacific". Experience nature's grandeur first hand on this guided tour with live narration. Gaze at the red cliffs of Waimea Canyon and enjoy a brief walk along a meandering path in verdant Koke'e State Park. Visit a coffee plantation and sample pure Kauai coffee. Watch the raw power of nature at Spouting Horn.
