Oʻahu’s nickname is the gathering place, and it’s easy to see why when more people live on Oʻahu than all the other islands in Hawaiʻi combined! What better place for a festival? This small island packs a punch with natural beauty, a bustling urban center, white sand beaches, and much more.

On this full-day tour, you will be able to circle Oʻahu and see many of the sites it is famous for, including the Polynesian Cultural Center which will give you an understanding of the ancient cultures that shaped the islands into what they are today.

      The Polynesian Cultural Center consistently ranks as the #1 attraction on Oʻahu. Across the expansive grounds, you will be able to check out six recreations of the ancient villages of Hawaivi, Fiji, New Zealand, Samoa, Tahiti, and Tonga. Throughout the Polynesian Cultural Center, you will see exhibits and live reenactments of some of the key moments in ancient Pacific Island culture. This stop along your adventure will give you a chance to step back in time and examine the cultures that have contributed so much to the Hawaiʻi that we know and enjoy today.

      Diamond Head Lookout

      In Hawaivian, Diamond Head is actually called Lēʻahi, which translates to ‘Brow of the Tuna’. This huge crater became known as Diamond Head after British sailors in the 19th century mistakenly believed they had discovered diamonds on the slopes of the extinct volcano. What they actually discovered were small and worthless crystals known as calcite. This small mistake gave rise to an enduring name for the mighty peak. Diamonds or no diamonds, the view from the top of the crater will give you a breathtaking vantage point from which to view Honolulu as well as the Pacific Ocean.

      Halona Blowhole and Beach Cove

      Blowholes are a natural occurrence in Hawaiʻi because they are created by lava tubes that at one point poured red-hot magma into the ocean. During high tide, ocean waves fill the lava tube creating an immense amount of pressure that shoots sea water sometimes hundreds of feet in the air. Similar to a geyser, the Halona Blowhole is a wonderful and noteworthy stop on this circle island tour. These are the kind of unique sights you shouldn't miss out on!

      This incredible full day tour starts with a pickup at major hotels and resorts so you don't have to worry about the hassle of transportation. The tour itself begins by driving over to Diamond Head Crater, which is actually an extinct volcano that overlooks Honolulu and the Pacific Ocean beyond it. This mighty peak allows you to gaze out over the island of O'ahu, uninterrupted by anything that would block your view.

      After enjoying the view at Diamond Head, you will head up O'ahu’s southeastern coast where you will catch views of the huge volcanic cliffs jutting out of the spectacular blue water. The southeast coast of the island is also famous for sights like Hanauma Bay, the Halona Blowhole, Sandy Beach and the iconic red and white lighthouse at the Makapu’u Lookout. Heading over to the eastern side of the island will take you through some of the more lush and densely forested parts of the island as the region below the Ko’olau Mountains gets much more annual rainfall than other parts of the island. On the eastern coast of Oahu enjoy views of Kane’ohe Bay, Malaekahana Bay, and of course, the postcard worthy rock formation of Chinaman’s Hat.

      After stopping for a delicious lunch you will hit the road once again to continue working your way up the coastline. From a distance, you will probably feel as if you are in the movie Jurassic Park because much of the scenery on this side of O'ahu was used for background shots. Upon reaching the small town of Laie prepare to stop at the Polynesian Cultural Center to take a tour of the incredible grounds, view the exhibits, and learn more about the voyaging people that originally settled the Hawaiian islands.

      The final stop on the tour will be the world famous Dole Plantation. This pineapple plantation is one of O'ahu’s main attractions, and while you are there be sure to pick up some souvenirs and try a Dole Whip frozen dessert. After a busy day of exploring, you deserve a delicious recharge. After the tour has concluded your driver and tour guide will drop you off at your hotel in Waikīkī.

      Frequently Asked Questions

      • How Big Is The Polynesian Cultural Center?

        The Polynesian Cultural Center covers about 42 acres on Oahu’s North Shore. Though we can’t see everything this wonderful attraction has to offer during the tour, we encourage you to spend more time at the Polynesian Cultural Center during your trip if your schedule permits.
      • How Long Is The Tour?

        This is a full day excursion which starts at around 7:30am and ends at approximately 5:00pm.
      • Do We Get To Do Any Snorkeling Or Swimming?

        Unfortunately, this tour does not allow any time or equipment for swimming or snorkeling since we will be covering so much ground in one day. If you would like to swim and/or snorkel we would encourage you to book a tour geared more towards those activities.
