I highly recommend this tour! Victor, our local guide, was super friendly, well planned, and knew all the best local places to eat that you would most likely never visit on your own. From the delightful pastries at the bakery to Chinatown’s fresh fish poke dishes, they were a treat to the mouth; from the savory, exotic fruit to the mouthwatering garlic shrimp, each bite was a hidden gem for food lovers. And definitely go hungry!

It was a perfect blend of great food, cuisine background information and some local history! Victor and TJ were very engaging and helpful!

DO NOT EAT BREAKFAST BEFORE YOU GO ON THIS TOUR!! We were a party of 7 & were joined by a couple. The van was spacious and well appointed. Our guides were Victor & TJ. We had 4 stops. First up a bakery where Victor took coffee/drink orders & got us each an assortment of pastries. Everyone got their own!! Obviously couldn’t eat it all, so they made sure we had a nice box to take the leftovers. Next stop was a seafood store that had different styles of poke & other seafood. Again each couple got their own assortment - everything from octopus to Lomi Lomi salmon., some smoked fish & opihi. The guides gave us the background on which ethnic group introduced each offering as well as where some of the shellfish and seaweed are gathered. We had people that said they don’t normally eat “raw” fish, that tried the poke & ended up enjoying it because the fish was so very fresh & well seasoned. As we were driving from location to location - important landmarks were pointed out & discussed. Lunch was above a grocery store where there were some great food stalls. Garlic shrimp (way too much to finish) as well as rice w/garlic sauce w/ the drinks of our choice. Both TJ & Victor served us at the tables. We all ended up wrapping leftovers to go. (They have a large Yeti cooler in back of the van as well as additional plates, napkins & wipes) Last stop was at the best shave ice place on the island. Victor told us what he usually ordered (I opted for the same) but you could order whatever you wanted. While we were waiting Victor discussed other great places to try & advocated a Korean place that added tons of sliced mango to their offering. Something I thought added a very personal touch was the fact that we were discussing the Li Hing Mui powder that is great added to the shave ice, but also great on fruit. Victor got each couple a packet - so very thoughtful. He also said we could text him with any questions or Resturant suggestions during the rest of our stay. Food was good, but the conversation on where to get the best saimen, the best kimchee fried rice, great fish dishes, etc. as well as different tidbits on buildings, history, etc. really made the tour. Needless to say, you’ll have a ton of leftovers, so don’t make dinner reservations either.

Victor picked us up from our hotel on time, extremely friendly guy!!, because of him we got to try the delicious food that the locals ate, every stop we made he explained every dish and it’s origin such an amazing experience, 1000% recommend for anyone visiting Oahu, probably the best part of my partners and I trip!

So many new flavors in historic Chinatown. Victor was informative, engaging and led an excellent tour through the fresh markets. We had top grade poke, sushi, roast duck, roast pork, sweet shrimp, fruits I’d wondered about and those I’d never seen. Come hungry! Leave happy!

Thank you Victor for letting us taste some of the different types of local foods. We had a blast!! You were a great host and tour guide! Definitely the way to try some local foods!

My mom and I went on the Da Locals food tour with Victor and it was super tasty! There was a wide range of food stops (pastries, poke, shrimp and shaved ice) and Victor shared some Hawaiian history between stops. He was super friendly and answered all of our questions (even those non-food related). We were very full by the end of it, and even had food to take home after. We’re extremely happy we took this tour and 10/10 would recommend

We took the food tour with Victor the day before we left and I kept thinking I wish we had done the tour much earlier. Not only were the stops excellent places to try the local fare but we were given so many tips and a lot of information that would’ve made our first trip to Hawaii even better. He was generous with the knowledge that he shared and also all the food that was offered. I learned so much!…not just about the food but about Hawaiian history and also places to visit that we’re beyond the typical tourist attractions. So thankful for this experience!
