# Best of Oahu: Pearl Harbor & Oahu Circle Island Tour from Waikiki

In our comparison: #45 of 56 in Circle Island Tours, by rating weighted by review volume (table below).

## Overview

Small-group tours only, just 12 guests per guide.

We’ve combined decades of experience as both travel experts and Oahu natives to curate a one-of-a-kind Oahu experience. Highlighting the island’s most exciting attractions, the Pearl Harbor & Oahu Circle Tour lets you see the best of Oahu in a single day.

The day begins with pick-up at a Waikiki hotel or condo. From there, ride in our comfortable Mercedes Sprinter van to Oahu’s most popular destination, Pearl Harbor. Here you’ll visit the historic site of the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor which launched the United States into World War II. Equal parts solemn and inspiring, the visit offers a unique look at one of the darkest moments in American history. 

Our knowledgeable guides will then drive you around the entire island of Oahu, making sure that you see all of its top tourist attractions. The tour spotlights locations like the Dole Plantation, North Shore, and Nu’uanu Pali. It’s an entertaining and educational adventure.
