About this experience
This Tour of North Shore & Waimea Waterfall and Pali Lookout adventure packs the island's absolute best into one incredible day. Skip the rental car headaches - this 7-8 hour guided journey hits all the spots where Hollywood fell in love with the island, from Jurassic Park to 50 First Dates.

The day starts early with pickups between 6:55am and 7:20am, beginning at Diamond Head's Amelia Earhart Lookout on the volcano's eastern slopes. The panoramic views stretch from Oahu's southeastern coastline to Hanauma Bay, and on those perfect clear days, you'll spot Maui on the horizon. Next up is the Halona Blowhole, where ancient lava tubes from Koko Head crater create nature's own geyser when the surf's just right.
After a drive-by of Hanauma Bay State Park, the tour climbs to the historic Pali Lookout. Perched atop the Ko'olau Range's rugged cliffs, this spot offers breathtaking windward views while carrying deep significance from the Battle of Nu'uanu, where King Kamehameha I united the Hawaiian Islands.
The fun continues with tastings at a macadamia nut shop beneath towering Banyan Trees - think Kona coffee, local nuts, and Hawaiian chocolates. Then there's Chinaman's Hat (Mokoli'i), perfectly framed by the majestic Kualoa Valley Mountain range.
