For the forth time in Hawaii, I decided to book a private tour with this company. I’m incredibly impressed with the knowledge I gained during the tour, learning about the local culture, history and Hawaiian values. I feel compelled to let everyone know, everything was impeccable. Our tour guide was exceptionally knowledgeable and professional, and we ended up being very happy and satisfied with this booking. Don’t think twice; they deliver knowledge and professionalism with Aloha!

We decided to do an afternoon tour of Honolulu and wanted to see some of the historical and metropolitan sights that we never knew existing on Oahu. The description that Spiritual Tours Hawaii provided was just the perfect fit for me and my family. We called and within a couple hours they arrived at our hotel and took us to several places that we never new existed. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable about the local culture and history.Tour ended with the most perfect sunset then dropped us off at our hotel..definitely a must do for only 2-3 hours in Honolulu.

The personal attention to detail and our guide’s thorough desire to ensure that we enjoyed the experience, made our time rememberable!! We had the opportunity to visit several sites Diamond head, Punchbowl, Wakkikki and learn so much about the rich history of Hawaii, which is so intriguing! She also took us around the city to see where the Hollywood stars live, where Obama grew up and was born!! Honolulu was one stop on our cruise and our guide told us about the best beaches, shopping in town as well as restaurants around town! As newbies to Honolulu ( with limited time) this was the perfect tour that spotlighted the best of Honolulu and what to do next on our agenda!! Lastly, it was awesome watching the sun go down and the city lights shine through!! Thank you for the wonderful experience!! One not to miss!!

After many trips to Hawaii, we decided to have an afternoon activity to rediscover the city from a different perspective. Great choice because our tour guide was extremely knowledgeable about history, Hawaiian culture and Honolulu establishment as a capital of Hawaii. Extremely interesting,

Was too late in the afternoon. Could not see much after sunset. Might of been better if it started around 3pm.

The Afternoon Honolulu tour was a private tour with a local resident, Seema, as the tour guide. Seema (I believe was her name) was a teacher who did the tours on the weekend. The tour was personal with the right amount of history for each site seen. The tour of Diamondhead and Punchbowl crater was excellent with views from the car. The tour guide, Seema, was sensitive to my mother's issues with heights. I loved the overall tour, which allowed quick views of tourist locations, such as government district, university of Hawaii, and state Supreme Court building. The sunset view from the marina was beautiful for pictures near the beach. The tour was worth the price.
