The Real Hawai'i

Let The Real Hawai’i take the guesswork out of your vacation with these private, custom Hawaiian tours. We have something for people of all activity levels and age groups. Whether it is a short half-day excursion or a full-day adventure we help you make the most efficient use of your precious vacation time here in paradise. Simply tell us the types of O’ahu activities you would like to do and our knowledgeable guides create a custom tour for you and your loved ones.

No idea what you would like to do? Don’t worry—we know the island well and we will help you decide how to make the most of your day. Step out of the crowded resorts and off the big tour busses and discover the real Hawai’i.

Why Choose a Private, Custom Tour of O'ahu?

Big bus tours follow the same schedule every day. Our tours are private and built around you: tell us what you enjoy — beaches, scenic lookouts, history and culture, filming locations, hiking or local food — and your guide shapes the day to match. You spend less time waiting for a crowd and more time actually exploring the island.

  • Hotel pickup included – pickup and drop-off are part of every tour.
  • Small groups – our O'ahu tours take up to 5-6 guests in a Jeep or van.
  • Flexible itineraries – full-day Circle Island, 6-hour North Shore and South Shore tours, a two-day tour and photo tours with a professional photographer.
  • Local food stops – we usually stop where you can choose from two or three local options.
  • Japanese-speaking guide – 日本語のご案内はこちら.
  • Visiting the Big Island too? See our Big Island tours, including Hawai'i Volcanoes National Park.

What Our Guests Say on TripAdvisor

Amazing Experience!

Our island circle tour was the best part of our trip to Hawaii. Waikiki was beautiful but you haven’t seen Hawaii until the RHT team take you out to see the rest of Oahu. They knew all the best lookouts, tourist hotspots and hidden treasures. All of our requests were met without hassle...I’d recommend the RHT team to anyone (and will be).

Great Personalised Tour

This tour was perfect. We could choose exactly what we wanted and had an experienced guide to make suggestions here and there to give us the best experience possible. He recommended places that were hidden gems that weren't bombarded with tourists and we had a ball! We ate at an amazing shrimp truck, had yummy shave ice, went snorkeling and saw some turtles. It was a wonderful day.

Beautiful Day Exploring

Dan was superb! Showed us around so many beautiful sites that we wouldn't have been able to see otherwise. He was super flexible and adaptable to our interests. Would definitely recommend this tour to people hoping to get a good taste of the island in a short space of time.

Awesome Experience

It was my second visit to Honolulu and decided to contract a private jeep tour with my close friends. What a great choice! Dan was knowledgeable and Island savvy knowing all the great spots to make this not just a tour but an experience that everyone visiting this great island should embark upon. Five star is not enough!!

Best Tour Co Ever!

The Real Hawaii went above and beyond to make my sister's and my tour a perfect one...Our tour guide was smart, funny, and comfortable answering all of our touristy questions. It was a great way to see so much in a short time. 100% will go back, and if you’re reading this...TRH is worth every penny, and I hope you choose them to see all that Oahu has to offer.
