Oahu Circle Island Tour: North Shore, Beaches and Waterfalls
Updated October 24, 2026 · 4 min read
Circle-island tours on Oahu look alike, but price and rating do not line up. The best-known offer is not the best rated, and two cheaper full-day tours score higher on fewer reviews.
Five full-day options
| Tour | From | Rating |
|---|---|---|
| Oahu Ultimate Grand Circle Island Tour | €93.73 | 4.1 (1,265) |
| Full-day guided bus tour with lunch (9 hours) | €152.36 | 4.6 (559) |
| Complete island tour with tropical waterfall swimming | €165.15 | 4.9 (374) |
| Circle island tour in one day or two half-days | €68.74 | 4.8 (139) |
| Circle island full-day tour with beach stop and free Wi-Fi | €70.95 | 4.6 (82) |
Among the three with the most reviews, the €93.73 tour has the lowest rating, 4.1. The listing gives no duration for it; the bus tour with lunch is listed at nine hours. The two cheapest tours have few reviews, so their ratings are less settled.
What to compare
The listings differ in what they include. The €165.15 tour is described as including hotel transfers from selected Honolulu hotels and stops at beaches, sea cliffs, waterfalls and botanical gardens. The €70.95 tour lists Dole Plantation, Turtle Beach, the North Shore, Diamond Head among ten or more stops, with Wi-Fi, a drink and hotel pickup included. The bus tour names lunch; for the others, check whether entry fees and meals are included.
Who should skip it
A circuit means many short stops. If you want a long beach day or a hike, one stop is a better use of the day than a ring road. Browse all circle-island tours before you choose.
