Touring with a couple in their 30s, ages 4 and 0 (4 months)! This was my first trip abroad with my children! This was my 4th time to Oahu personally, but surprisingly, I enjoyed all the places I had never been. The shrimp for lunch was excellent! We were able to see sea turtles in the ocean on the North Shore, which made my child very happy. I would recommend this tour to anyone who is looking for a family-friendly tour.
