Excellent round island tour. Packed so much in the day. Was a blast. So much information and history was given and much appreciated.

Piilani was my guide for the day. I was her only guest. Instead of cancelling, she went ahead with the tour with me solo, and I really appreciate that. She’s very knowledgeable about Hawaii, including its history, geography, and local culture. I learned so much from her just from one day. I would really recommend this tour to anyone who wants to learn more about Hawaii and her people.

We had the pleasure of doing this tour with Piilani and her son-in-law Kaui. We were the only people booked that day so it turned into a private tour which was the highlight of our Hawaii trip. Pe has a knowledge and enthusiasm for Hawaiian culture that came across throughout the trip. The tour took us to all the key locations as well as some terrific out of the way food stops only a local would know. An early start meant we kept ahead of the crowds. The price included entry to the Byodo Temple and Waimea Valley gardens which makes it great value compared to other similar tours. It was a packed but relaxed day and didn't seem regimented as some of these tours can. Kaui joined the tour as he is learning the ropes. He is the nephew of Hawaiian singing star Israel Kamakawiwoʻole and played the ukulele/sang as we made our way back to Honolulu. A truly magical day

This was an awesome tour and a great way to start our trip. The tour guide Mua was excellent and such a humble and accommodating man. Was basically like our own private tour. Amazing sights and a little taste of the island. Now we know where we can explore on our own. My teenage kids and I really enjoyed this. Highly recommend this!

We had a fantastic day with our driver/tour guide Melo, he was very knowledgeable and had a great sense of humour and saw everything we wanted to see & eat. We enjoyed our trip with a large group of Latino people who made it more enjoyable., (hubby and I were the only Aussies outside their group) Highly recommended for a full day of fun! Aloha 😃

Mua was our driver and was absolutely fantastic. we were the only two on the bus tour which was the best part. we got to see so many amazing sights and Mua made sure to provide us with so many detailed facts about the island. best tour i’ve been on.

Our first time to Hawaii and we wanted to start our trip with a general tour of the island to find out where we wanted to spend our time for the rest of the trip. Plus we had jet lag after traveling for 16 hours the day before so we decided to leave the driving to someone else! What we didn’t realize until we were in the back seat of the Ford 150 is that the tour guide would not only give us the background for each site that we visited but also a cultural perspective. Our tour guide KIEKI was fabulous. He was entertaining, knowledgeable about so many things and had a great sense of humor. He told many tales of folklore that really helped us to remember the scenery, beaches and rock formations we saw in passing as we drove by. We finished the tour with a much better idea of what Oahu is about. Keiki was well known at all of the locations that we traveled to so we are sure he is a local celebrity! His background of being a professional surfer back in the day was especially interesting. He had all kinds of stories about being one of a dozen of the top surfers in the world! Thanks to ENou Tours for allowing us to have Kieki for the entire day as our personal guide. He created a day for us that we will never forget, At the end of the day he even serenaded us with a song on his ukulele as he said Aloha

We were so lucky to land a private tour on our honeymoon, led by Kiki who regaled us with amazing personal stories and folklore throughout the entire day. You can absolutely tell that he is a native to the island...from how passionately he shares his encyclopedic knowledge with you to how he personally knows so many people around the island. He is just a wonderful human being through and through. We had so much fun spending the day with Kiki. The sights were of course beautiful (with ample bathroom stops and snacking opportunities throughout the day) but the stories that he shared with us were priceless. If you want to be treated like family and see a side of Oahu that you can't get from other tours, book with Anuenue tours. You will not regret it. Mahalo, Kiki!

What can I say!? Do not leave Oahu without beginning or ending your stay with this Circle Island Tour- If The Goddess Pele smiles down upon you, KiKi will be your Guide- Every stop from beginning to end sprinkled with KiKi's native island knowledge, stories, advice, ukulele seranades, history & the list goes on ... is spectacular! Some highlights were the Diamondhead Lookout sunrise, sharing a delicious Shrinp Lunch with our fellow tour friends, Byo In Temple, our water hike ... This was an early Christmas Gift for sure!
