And You Creations runs five guided day tours on Oahu, and every one of them starts with pickup from your Waikiki hotel.
Three of them cover the island: a full loop built as much around local food as around scenery, a waterfall hike and swim in Waimea Valley on the North Shore, and a rainforest hike to Manoa Falls barely ten minutes from town.
The other two go to Pearl Harbor; one a guided tour paired with historic Honolulu, the other an all-in-one pass to the memorial sites.
All five include a local guide and round-trip transportation. Pick the one that fits your day.
Island and You; Oahu Circle Island TourAdults $128 / Children $98 (ages 2–11) / 8 hours / daily
The full loop around Oahu, with roughly ten scenic, cultural and food stops along the way. You take in Makapuu Lookout, Halona Blowhole and Kualoa Regional Park, start the morning with warm malasadas, sit down to a garlic shrimp plate on the North Shore, and get free time in Haleiwa town before the drive back to Waikiki.
Details
Nature and You; Waimea Valley Waterfall Hike & SwimAdults $134 / Children $114 (ages 3–12) / 7.5 hours / Mon–Fri
An easy guided walk through Waimea Valley on the North Shore, ending at the 45-foot waterfall where you can swim with lifeguards on duty. The valley is a sacred Hawaiian site, so the walk takes in botanical gardens and cultural landmarks as well, and the day rounds out with stops at Green World Coffee Farm and Dole Plantation.
Details
Nature and You; Manoa Falls Rainforest HikeAdults $119 / Children $99 (ages 4–11) / 5 hours / Mon–Fri
The shortest of the three, and the closest to town. The trail climbs through bamboo and tropical rainforest to the 150-foot Manoa Falls, a stretch of jungle familiar from more than a few films and television shows. On the way back you stop at Tantalus Lookout for the view over Honolulu, Waikiki and Diamond Head.
Details
Pearl Harbor and Historic Honolulu City TourAdults $69 (ages 13+) / Children $59 (ages 3–12) / Infants free (ages 0–2)
The guided option. Your driver-guide covers Pearl Harbor’s history and the Hawaiian Kingdom on the way out, then you explore the Pearl Harbor Historic Sites at your own pace with USS Arizona Memorial tickets already in hand. The return is a narrated drive through historic downtown Honolulu.
Details
Passport to Pearl HarborAdults $99 (ages 13+) / Children $49 (ages 4–12) / Infants and young children free (ages 0–3)
An all-in-one admission pass for visitors who want to take their time. It covers the three ticketed attractions at the historic site; the Battleship Missouri, the submarine museum and the aviation museum; so you can work through them in whatever order suits you.

Your guide meets you at a designated stop near your Waikiki hotel. Departure depends on the tour: 7:30 AM for Waimea Valley, 8:00 AM for the Circle Island loop, 9:00 AM for Manoa Falls.
The drive out is part of the tour. Your local guide covers Hawaiian history, the plants and landscapes you are passing, and the stories behind the places on the itinerary.
The Circle Island tour works its way around the coastline with roughly ten stops. The Waimea and Manoa tours head straight for the trail, then walk in to the waterfall at an easy pace.
Every tour includes food: a garlic shrimp plate on the North Shore, a picnic lunch in Waimea Valley, or a local-style sandwich lunch after the Manoa hike.
Depending on the tour, the day also takes in Dole Plantation, Green World Coffee Farm, a macadamia nut farm, Tantalus Lookout or free time in Haleiwa town.
Drop-off back at your Waikiki pickup point. Return times run from about 2:00 PM for Manoa Falls to around 4:30 PM for the Circle Island tour.
If you want to see the whole island and eat your way around it, take the Circle Island tour. If you want a waterfall you can swim in, take Waimea Valley. If you have half a day and want a rainforest hike close to Waikiki, take Manoa Falls.
