Look no further for an Island tour and surf lessons. Shane took us out for an entire day of sightseeing. We would never have been able to see all the beauty Oahu has to offer on our own or on a large group tour. He personalized the island tour to our liking and ensured we enjoyed ourselves! My husband even took surf lessons with both Shane and Niel and had a wonderful experience. Thank you for making our vacation so memorable!shellecarroll

Shane is a marvelous guide. He was dedicated on taking us wherever we wanted. With his guidance and our interests we traveled around the island and saw many different places. My sister in law’s favorite was the snorkeling and my favorite was the different views we got to see when we went to the other side of the island. Definitely the food truck area as well.Huibing Z

Shane is the best! We signed up for this trip expecting to have some fun local tours and snorkelling and the experience is BEYOND EXPECTATION! Shane was able to customize the trip for us since we want to do more local tours on less popular places. He also offered water and homemade banana budding (that was absolutely delicious!) He was also very knowledgeable about hawaii's history and culture, which we really appreciated. The weather was colder than we thouht, but Shane was patiently encouraging us and we were able to power through. Shane was also very kind-hearted and helpful. When I was a bit scared of snorkeling without my glasses, Shane helped me move around and guide me through all the rocks patiently. This really helped me enjoy snorkeling so much! In short, if you want a knowledgeable, patient, flexible, and super friendly guide, Shane is the one! Plus, he also teaches surfing (41 yrs of surfing) so worth another tour with him on surfing.Randa B
