You can tailor your tour for a whole day, half day or evening.  Spend time on the beach or in the mountains.  Papa even sails.  Just enjoy the beauty of Hawaii or enjoy that something extra.

Papa Al will meet you at your Waikiki Hotel. You must provide the rental van or car for your tour..

Note from HawaiiGuide. Papa Al knows the Island of Oahu inside out. You provide the car and passengers. Papa will do the driving and will show you where to go and what to see. There is no itinerary. You plan the day with Papa according to your interests. It is a custom tour. He may suggest a hike through a stream bed or through a bamboo forest. You may swim under a waterfall in a fresh water pool... or enjoy a picnic at a remote beach. He may suggest a snorkel at the best locations, explore the little roads and towns off the beaten paths. Papa will share a wealth of knowledge about Hawaiian History or his book. With very little encouragement, he will sing Hawaiian or his personally composed songs of Hawaii and the sea.
