Did not turn up!!
Tour did not arrive. Very disappointing and stressful. Had emailed before the day and phoned on the day. No replies to any of my communication. Viator were very responsive but this tour company is irresponsible.
via Tripadvisor
A no show from the company running the tour.
They never showed up or answered text messages or phonecalls. Viator were great to deal with but not this company running the tours. Very stressful and disappointing.

perfect day with C.J
The tour was absolutely amazing! We had so much fun, would recommend to everyone, 100% worth it. This tour is perfect if you only have a few days to travel around Oahu as you get to do a lot in only one day. Special mention to C.J who made our day so much fun, would not have been the same without him!

Outstanding Tour with Cj!
I had an amazing Honolulu tour in Hawaii with Cj as my guide. Cj is a fantastic guide—friendly, knowledgeable, and punctual. He provided clear explanations about the places we visited, shared captivating stories about Hawaii, and ensured a seamless experience. Highly recommend Cj for a memorable tour!

Why this scores 59
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Full-Day Tour to Kailua Hawaii with Return Trip Shuttle: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Oahu.
How much does Full-Day Tour to Kailua Hawaii with Return Trip Shuttle cost?
+
Prices start at $80 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Oahu usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Full-Day Tour to Kailua Hawaii with Return Trip Shuttle take?
+
Plan for about 9 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Oahu is not rushed.
Is Full-Day Tour to Kailua Hawaii with Return Trip Shuttle worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 59 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.2/5 across 10 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Oahu, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Full-Day Tour to Kailua Hawaii with Return Trip Shuttle?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Full-Day Tour to Kailua Hawaii with Return Trip Shuttle suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 9-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Full-Day Tour to Kailua Hawaii with Return Trip Shuttle?
+
Around 4 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Oahu can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Oahu and add a light layer if any part of the 9-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Full-Day Tour to Kailua Hawaii with Return Trip Shuttle start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Oahu within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Oahu?
+
On Outty we rank every Oahu experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Oahu: Full or Half Day Grand Circle Island Tour, Oahu Small-Group Circle Island Tour with Turtle Snorkeling, Pearl Harbor Remembered Tour. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Oahu?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Oahu?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
