We booked Kiko based on the numerous exceptional ratings and she did not disappoint. She picked us up at the agreed upon time at Aulani ready to tackle the day. We were a family with diverse expectations for the day and she was able to adapt the tour to provide something for everyone - malasadas, Dole Plantation, turtle beach, foodland for poke, beautiful beaches, fresh fruit market, punch bowl crater, etc. in addition, she has a tremendous amount of knowledge on the history of Hawaii. She has a wonderful personality which kept the entire group engaged. At our final dinner, we recapped our trip to Oahu and this tour consistently came up as the highlight for the trip. Great job Kiko!
My wife and I booked with Kristi for a post-cruise tour. Since we had already seen a lot of things though the cruise tours, we needed a customized tour to see what the excursions left out. Kristi was so flexible and accommodating! We gave her our wish list and she delivered! We saw local farms and eating places - not the usual commercial establishments. She is very knowledgeable and has such a great personality - she made us feel at home while we were away. We recommend that everyone book a tour with Kiko's. It will be a highlight of your trip!
This is a wonderful tour company to deal with. We had excellent communication while arranging a private tour for 10 people on a cruise. Jasmine was our tour guide and she was exceptional. We saw a lot of the island and she had a few surprises along the way for us. Even though the traffic was very congested due to the floods, she still managed to get us to all the places on the itinerary and back to the ship in good time. I would definitely recommend Kiko's to anyone visiting Honolulu.
We toured with Kiko while visiting Oahu during a Hawaiian islands cruise. Kiko picked us up at the pier and we spent all day touring the island from Honolulu to the North Shore and back. We stopped at all the beautiful spots on the island, plus roadside produce stands, food trucks and Macadamia nut farm/store. Kiko was awesome and even got us back to the ship in time to catch our ride to the evening Luau we had scheduled for that night! I highly recommend Kikos Tours!
Had a great day today with KIKOS TOURS. Kiko took us all over Oahu to the places we wanted to see with other stops along the way. We highly recommend her for a customized Circle Island Tour!! We loved that we did not have to drive and could enjoy all the beautiful sights. Call her for a fun filled tour!
Kiko and Jasmine were kind, friendly and knew their stuff. They were flexible with some of our questions and requests and made our families experience the best way to see and learn about the island. From this point forward we were able to get an idea of the places we wanted to revisit or explore further.
Niko is a wonderful host and driver. Her van is comfortable and easy to hop in and out of. Pickup/drop-off at the cruise port could not be more convenient. She took us places we would have never known about, including last minutes detours based on our conversation. The day trip was a truly delightful experience.
Jasmine was perfect, completely knowledgeable and accommodating, great way to get the lay of the land on our first day there!
We had a wonderful experience with both of our Tour Ladies. They were both knowledgeable and very professional. They also was attentive. Mahlo Ladies
Highly recommend this tour! We did this right after ending our NCL cruise, and the pickup from the port was an absolute breeze. The whole day was customized around the places we hadn’t seen yet on Oahu, which made it feel really personal and special. We were a multigenerational family (ages 8 to 63!), and everyone had a great time. Such an easy, fun, and memorable way to wrap up our trip!
We had a wonderful tour of Oahu with Kikos Tours! Kiko was very informative about the history of the island. She hand picked every stop on the tour for our family. She is very passionate about what she does! We could not have been more satisfied! We would recommend this tour company. Thank you Kiko for making our day in Oahu so memorable.
The tour was the highlight of our vacation. Kiko is very knowledgeable and can tweak your tour to your wants. She is very relatable and we felt at home with her.We enjoyed going off the beaten path and discover different foods that are local (and delicious) as well as some traditional sights. Very good communication and arrived early for pick up. I would recommend without hesitation.
Incredible day with Kiko! She took us to amazing local spots, was very knowledgeable about the history of the island, and made sure everyone was happy! Highly recommend!
Wow! We were so lucky to find Kiko's tours! She was so friendly and helpful, gauging our interests and tailoring the tours to please all four of us. We booked 2 days with Kiko and were not disappointed, feeling that we had a taste of everything the island had to offer. We especially appreciated her local knowledge and the information that she shared with us. The food trucks were a bonus that we would not have ventured to on our own. It is clear that she is well respected by the relationship that she has with the people at the attractions that we visited. I highly recommend Kiko as an exceptional tour operator.
Absolutely would recommend a tour with Kiko Tours. Kiko created a customized itinerary combining what I wanted to do and see with what she recommended based on expected travel time and crowd size, etc. and our abilities. The price was well in line with the value of a private 6 hour tour. We did not rent a car and I was afraid we might not get to do and see too much, so the value of the tour was great. She showed us fabulous, picturesque spots and provided history of the island along the way. Afterwards, she text pics she had taken of us and also provided great recommendations for restaurants in Waikiki. And she made she we ate well during our 6 hour tour!
We had a great private island tour around Oahu with Kiko! She tailored the tour to our liking - picked us up from the hotel, avoided the locations we weren’t interested in and included the ones we wanted to see. In addition, she showed us some unique spots, gave excellent food recommendations, and captured amazing photos throughout the day. The car was comfy, had a cooler with water. We truly enjoyed our day. Highly recommend!
My family and I went on the O’ahu circle tour with Kiko. We flew to Hawaii from the east coast and I booked this as the first full day activity. I figured we all might be a little jet lagged and still adjusting to the time difference. I am so glad that I spent the time researching different circle tours, because if not, I might have missed this woman-owned gem of a business! Kiko picked us up at our hotel and drove us every where. It was so relaxing and peaceful after the months of planning and long flight. On the day of the tour, I had a list of locations and areas that we were interested in going to around the island. Kiko made suggestions and we were able to work everything in and we got to see everything we wanted and more. Kiko was able to get her car into areas where the big bus tours couldn’t. We weren’t on a strict time limit at each location like I saw a lot of the other tourists were on. We just went with the flow of the day. Island time. Kiko had awesome 3D maps of the island for everyone and we used them as we were driving around and viewing different areas. This made it so much easier to see where we were and where we were going. She even had a little headset and speaker so we could hear her better in her car. She is so knowledgeable of all the areas and in the history of Hawaii. We learned so many new and interesting facts! She took pictures of my family with my phone at every stop for me. We got so many treats and samples. She took us to the best location for lunch. It had a bunch of different food trucks and picnic tables with a variety of food choices. My husband and I shared the garlic shrimp plate from Da Bald Guys and I still crave it now and it’s only been a week. It was better than any garlic shrimp that I have had in a restaurant. My daughter chose a cheeseburger and fries from Seven Brothers. She loved it and ate the whole thing. We stopped by the Dole plantation to get some Dole Whip and a couple souvenirs. At the top of every hour they do a pineapple cutting class for a few minutes. They let us sample the pineapple and it was so juicy and delicious. It was the best tasting pineapple I had ever eaten. They also showed us how to take the top off the pineapple and use it to grow more pineapple. I recorded the entire show. I was able to purchase 2 Dole pineapple and have them shipped to my house. We received them today and I cut them up just like they do there. We ate our juicy delicious pineapple today and reminisced on our wonderful vacation. I already have the pineapple tops soaking in water hoping for them to sprout roots (fingers crossed)! We also wanted to stop by KoHana Rum Distillery to do a rum tasting and we were able to squeeze that in as our last stop. We purchased a bottle of rum and they engraved it there on site while we waited! Kiko was outside doing cartwheels with my daughter and showing her the turtle. We had the best time on this tour and got to see so many different places! We were sad to see it end. We think of Kiko as part of our family and a friend we have in Hawaii! I can’t praise Kiko’s Tours enough.
We had the absolute BEST time with Kiko on our private island tour! This was by far one of the greatest things we did during our first visit to Hawaii. Kiko was incredibly knowledgeable about Hawaii, navigating us through the island like a pro, and was super fun to chat with! She offered us great recommendations for things to check out, which beaches to visit, and where to park (we did our tour on our second day on the island, which I would recommend so you can get a feel of the island and get tips on navigating on your own). She was so attentive but gave us space to explore, took pictures for us, and made us feel welcomed. She deserves more than 5 stars, and I highly recommend her tour company!!
Kiko was very attentive to us and provided us a great experience seeing the island from the eyes of a local.
Kiko gave our group of 4 a private tour of Oahu and customized it to our preferences! She picked us up at our hotel. She was very welcoming and informative- she even had maps for us! We felt like we were touring the island with an old friend! She played Hawaiian music on the radio, she gave us very informative and interesting facts all along the way! She took pictures for us! She bought us treats to sample. She knew all the places to go and even found us a turtle on the beach! You will be so happy you booked with Kiko! It was one of our favorite days of the trip to the islands!
My wife and I chose this private circle island tour and glad we did! Having Kristi show us around was great as she knows so much about the island and knows so many people. She definitely has the “inside connections” that will make your trip much more enjoyable. If you’re shopping around for a circle island tour, get in touch with Kristi! Pro tip-end your day doing the rum tasting and you won’t be disappointed.
Kiko’s Private Tour was truly the highlight of our time on Oahu! Kiko is incredibly friendly and professional and knowledgeable about the history, culture, and hidden gems around the North Shore. The tour was well-paced and thoughtfully curated—perfect for anyone who wants to explore the island without feeling rushed. I especially appreciated the personal touches and Kiko’s great storytelling. Highly recommended for anyone looking for an authentic and enjoyable experience. Bonus: comes with many great restaurant recommendations.
KIKOS tours was phenomenal ! We were able to customize our trip to stay longer or shorter at some of the stops and she was so great at giving us recommendations and island information ! Must do this !
Kiko is outstanding! She is very friendly, personable and knowledgeable. She knows all the best sightseeing spots and places to get the best food! We were celebrating two birthdays and she made sure the tour was so enjoyable and memorable for us. We highly recommend this tour!
I HIGHLY recommend this tour!! Kiko was so friendly and knowledgeable about this beautiful island. We did our tour towards the beginning of our trip which was great, because we got a huge list of recommendations for snorkel spots, restaurants, shops, and places to visit. Kiko is so down to earth and goes above and beyond to create an itinerary that matches the desires and interests of the entire group. We learned so much about the culture, and had the most delicious snacks along the way. This tour is a perfect way to see the island, experience things that aren’t “tourist traps”, and get ideas for the rest of your trip! Thank you Kiko for your warmth, presence, and knowledge!!
Loved my private tour of Honolulu. She took us where we had never been before and when the other tours don't go. Very good time!
Kiko was amazing. We couldn’t have asked for a more perfect tour guide. Kiko was very kind, caring and knowledgeable of Oahu. She took us to many places on Oahu & told us of the history of the island. She picked us up at the end of our cruise for our tour & then took us to the airport. She was able to store all of our luggage during the tour. Kiko was not only a tour guide - she became our friend 💕
Amazing experience learned so much about Hawaiian culture. So many wonderful sites and our tour guide Jasmine was amazing and very knowledgeable.
There are not enough words to express how wonderful the experience was booking a private tour with Kikos O’ahu Tours. My family and I were visiting Oahu for a special celebration and we wanted to see the island through the eyes of a local for a more intimate experience. Kiko picked us up from our hotel, the Four Season at Ko Olina, and after a brief discussion regards how we envisioned this tour and what we were looking out of it she came up with the best possible itinerary. Not only did we visit some of the popular must see places but she also took us to the places where locals go so we could try the most amazing local treats, she talked to us about the history of the island but also about the current situation and she drove us through the little towns where you get the feeling that you are traveling back in time. Kiko was very professional, we didn’t feel rushed and we definitely felt at the end of our tour that we had a pretty good taste of the island and the local life. I did appreciate that after we finished our tour, she followed up with us the next day with recommendations and tips for places to visit on our own. Her whole costumer service was beyond our expectation and I can definitely say that the day we toured with her was one of the highlights of our trip. The price was beyond reasonable and I would expect this to be an advertised tour by the Four Seasons since so private and exclusive. We found Kiko through Trip Advisor. When we go back to Oahu we will do a different Kiko’s tour without second thoughts.
Wow! What a fantastic day with Kiko. From 8:30 pick-up at the the dock until drop-off at 4:30, Kiko educated us with history of the island and information about key spots. She stopped the van multiple times to allow for amazing photo taking along the east side of the island and back down the centre. We saw and/or stopped at 14+ locations. Food truck lunch was delicious because Kiko knows the area and made great recommendations. Kiko gave us a friendly, fun, entertaining tour. And her prices are right!!
We were picked up right in front of our cruise ship, and picked up promptly at 815 am as arranged. Our guides had extensive knowledge of the island. She took us to many locations that can not be reached by a motor coach tour. We stopped by beaches to watch surfing, visiting shopping areas, treated us to Spanish donuts (I can't spell the real name) they were delicious. Stopped by Dole Plantation for Dole whip and and some shopping at the Dole store. We stop by a food truck area for a lunch of delicious shrimp and burgers.
Great day with KIKO. She customized the tour for what we wanted to see and do. Great tips on prices, too. The sights were spectacular! Our first trip to Hawaii...also our 50th state! Highly recommend!
Kiko took us on an amazing adventure around the whole island!!!! We saw beautiful views, ate wonderful foods and learned amazing things!!!!! She took pictures of us all along the way and gave us so many memories to cherish forever!!!
Knowledgeable and professional tour guide. Kiko is caring and attentive to our needs. My husband has a little mobility issue; Kiko made it very comfortable for him. Highly recommended
Best tour we have EVER been on! We absolutely would go with Kikos Tours on our next visit to Honolulu. Without a doubt! Extremely informative and personalized to our needs and desires.
This was an excellent tour! Kristi was an excellent guide, she was very knowledgeable and accommodating. I would highly recommend this tour to everyone!
What a wonderful tour of Oahu. Kiko took the time to understand our interests and really customized the tour to us. We visited some great "off the beaten path" sites. Would definitely recommend those perfect small group tour. A perfect way to see the island.
What started out as a random post cruise port transfer to our Waikiki hotel ended up being a circle island tour with Kikos Tours Oahu just days later. Our group of 4 were delighted with the knowledge, flexibility and professional care and attention from Kiko. We loved her personality! She's such a positive spark. We literally ate our way through the island and enjoyed treats such as Leonard's Malasadas and lunched at the best food trucks on the North Shore, two features we may have missed if we attempted to rent a car and do this on our own. I highly recommend Kiko of Kiko Tours Oahu for those wanting to spend a day seeing the best of Oahu, experiencing great food, wonderful sights all the while supporting local proprietors. This was a great way to finish our vacation. Can't wait to do this again! Mahalo!
We booked Kiko Tours for a private circle island tour on the day of our POA cruise. Kiko was prompt, courteous and is knowledgeable about the island. She took us to all of the spots on our list we wanted to see and we even through in some along the way. She took many candid photos of us and sent them to us. We highly recommend booking a tour with Kiko Tours!
We had an awesome experience with Kiko. Professional and knowledgeable. Very pleasant and accommodating. Definitely recommend Kiko’s Tours
Great trip and. Great guide! The small group travel allowed us to customize our trip so that everyone was happy. The guide was knowledgeable, funny and attentive to what we wanted to see. We are traveling with my older parent and the guide made sure to ask what it was she wanted to see. It was a Sea Turtle. The guide made sure my mom got to set the turtle! I highly recommend this tour if you have a small group.
Kiko was great! She definitely accommodated what we wanted to see for the tour. Lookouts, food trucks, malasadas, dole plantation, banana lumpia (thanks for the treat!), and all the places that anyone touring the island would want to see and experience! This helped us in figuring out what and how we wanted to spend the rest of our vacation in Oahu. Thanks, Kiko!
Kiko is top notch! Despite my last minute reservation (10:30pm the night prior), Kiko rose to the occasion and picked up my family and I from our hotel in her comfortable minivan. I loved that the entire tour with her was informative and relaxing. She knew all the best food spots to go to and best of all, I didnt have to worry about driving around and could relax and leave the driving up to Kiko. I highly recommend booking a private tour with Kiko, you will not be disappointed! Thank you again Kiko for making our vacation at Oahu a memorable one.
Our tour guide Kiko was absolutely amazing!! She was so friendly and knowledgeable about the island. Kiko was very flexible with our tour and tailored it to our interests and what we wanted to do and see around the island. My mother who has alzheimer's went on the tour with us and Kiko was so sweet and compassionate with her. If you're looking for a great private tour of the island with an amazing tour guide this tour is for you!
Kiko is such an awesome guide and is very knowledgeable! We were picked up at the ship and spent 8 hours touring Oahu. We saw beautiful beaches, turtles, Dole Plantation, surfers, coffee company,etc. Kiko brought us to awesome food trucks and introduced us to Hawaiian culture! This was a great option for the day as we had a whole day to burn before our red eye flight.
We had to cram in a lot of stuff during our short stay on Oahu, so this trip was a perfect way to see a lot of the island. Highlights included the north shore, great food trucks, donuts, the beautiful emerald waters of Waimea Bay and so many scenic photo opportunities. Kiko was an amazing guide, very knowledgeable, laid back and a great sense of humour. The weather also turned it on for us. What a day! Highly recommended. We’ll be back for more soon
My husband and I had the best time! Kiko was so easy to work with and she customized our tour according to our needs. We had a great day exploring Oahu. We had wonderful breakfast coffee and tea, delicious malsadas from a food truck, saw Diamondhead, a botanical garden and waterfall, a few beautiful spots where movies were filmed, the North Shore just to name a few! Excellent lunch from a shrimp food truck and the best shave ice we had the entire trip! We stopped to make bracelets while leaving the botanical gardens and the lovely woman teaching us how to make them gifted me with a beautiful bracelet she had made! What a special moment. Thank you Kiko for a day we will never forget!
We had a great time. Kiko picked us up at our hotel and we were off for the Circle Island North Shore tour. She was knowledgeable and personable and we even made a couple extra stops. Everything was customizable. Beautiful day and would highly recommend!
We can not say enough about Kiko! She is an amazing tour guide that caters to all your needs. She was with us every minute of our tour. Her expertise of the island is first class. She will personalize your tour to your wants and needs. Thank you Kiko for a unforgettable experience of Hawaii
