Circle Island Tour
Sample Itinerary
One of our most popular tours is the Circle Island Tour. Remember, it's all up to you, but a typical Circle Island Tour itinerary might be:
- We are picked up at our hotel in Waikiki. We are greeted with aloha, and fresh leis too. Our destinations are numerous, so let's get started!
- We drive away from Waikiki toward the Windward side of O'ahu. Along the way, we see Diamond Head. We stop at a scenic lookout for our first pictures of the day.
- From there we view at Koko Crater and Hanauma Bay. Next we stop at the Halona Blowhole, where the waves force water through a lava tube and into the sky as high as 30 feet!
- We continue along past the amazingly beautiful blue costal waters. Have you ever seen waters so blue?
- We are now far from the hustle and bustle of Honolulu and Waikiki. We stop for a visit to one of the many fantastic local beaches, but not for long, we have much more to see!
- As we continue we reach a local macadamia nut farm where we stop to buy some flavorful gifts for friends back home. We make more visits to an art gallery, a ranch, a local restaurant for some ono (Hawaiian word for yummy) food.
- We make a stop at Laie Point, and learn about its Hawaiian legend.
- From there we continue on to the North Shore. We stop at a few of the world-famous beaches and observe some of the day's surfers. We even get a chance to swim with a honu (turtle).
- After a stop at a shrimp truck, we get to Hale'iwa Town for some shopping and dining. We get some yummy Matsumoto Shave Ice.
- After leaving the North Shore we begin our return the Waikiki. We travel through wonderfully fragrant pineapple fields. We stop at the Dole Plantation and try not to get lost in the world's largest maze.
- On our way back to town we visit the National Cemetery at Punchbowl and the State Capitol.
- Our final stop is another scenic point for one last view of the day.
- We return to our hotel. Today we saw so many wondrous sights, took countless pictures, heard about Hawaiian history and legend, sampled some local food, discovered some Hawaiian treasures, and learned some Hawaiian language. This will be a memory that we will recall for the rest of our lives.
