secret Tours Beyond the Guidebooks

Hawaii is one of the most incredible places on Earth, but not all vacations are created equal. Some travelers stick to bus tours and typical attractions, while others want a more personal, unforgettable experience.

At Secret Hawaii Tours, we specialize in out-of-the-box adventures. Our guides aren’t just drivers — they’re local experts who bring years of experience, their own unique style, and a little island mana to every tour. While Hawaii is always the star, our guides make each journey truly memorable.

Beyond the iconic sights, we’ll take you to curated “secret” spots off the usual tourist path. These hidden gems are best discovered with your guide, who will tailor the experience to make memories that last a lifetime.

10/10 Experience - Must do for real Five-0 fans! My wife and I went on this tour yesterday after spending a lot of time thinking whether we should pay this much money or not and eventually it was more than worth it! We knew it was worth it from the very first moment out guide Matt picked us up, as he was just amazing. 100% local dude, extremely authentic and full of knowledge about Hawaii and Five-0. He was able to answer many questions we had and we were able to visit a lot of famous placed from the show. The main highlight obviously was the lunch at McGarretts house where we met Cousin Flippa - another amazing dude how gave a lot of insights about show & cast - and also Suze the houses owner who told many stories from the various shootings that took place there. It was great to hear so many insights and learn stuff you won‘t find on the internet. Would recommend this tour to anybody who watched Hawaii Five-0 and loved it. Mahalo

Perfect for everyone who loves Hawaii 5'o The tour was definitely worth it. Our guide, Matt, was always in a great mood, very humorous, and knew a lot about the area and the stops. We certainly had a lot of fun. The visit to McGarrett's house was also great! The owner of the house and Bruce (founder of these tours) were able to tell us a lot about the house and the filming. We also met Shawn (Flippa) at the house, were able to chat with him, and take photos. It was great to get to know the actor in such a relaxed atmosphere. Everything was very personal since our group only consisted of 6 people. This tour is absolutely perfect for everyone who loves the series Hawaii 5'o !! We also appreciate that a part of the proceeds are donated to a non-profit organization for dogs.

Great East island and food tour. We visited parts of the island that we had never seen before, and definitely ate at some places that a tourist would never find. Matt was a fantastic guide.

Behind the Scenes Tour of 5-0 and a Meet & Greet with Cousin Flicka This was a behind the scenes tour of the show Hawaii 5-0. My mom loved it. She was able to meet cousin Flicka and Danny from the show. We took pictures with them too!Mc Garretts house was just like we saw it on the show. Our tour guide and tour driver was personable and informative, especially since they worked on the show too.This is not a tour to pass up and especially if you love Hawaii 5-0.

Best Tour! All the famous spots & local faves! I 100% recommend Secret Hawai’i tours for your visit to Oahu. My husband and I did the Full Circle Tour with Justin and it felt more like being shown the island with a local friend more than a touristy van tour through the island.First, schedule, pick up and all logistics were handled so professionally and smoothly. We were picked up from our hotel on time, and the van was spacious, clean, comfortable and air conditioned. Justin gave us a welcoming introduction to himself and the tour, and he asked us about what we wanted to see.Second, the tour was a wonderful mix of hitting up famously beautiful spots and local places we never would have thought to go without Justin. Justin was an absolute pleasure and joy with whom to spend the day. He has such a fun personality and is also a treasure trove of both historical knowledge and local fun facts. We were both educated and entertained constantly.He also graciously took pictures of us at every stop! He went out of his way to share a slice of his home with us, and it will stick with us forever.In addition to spending a memorable day exploring the island, Justin also brought us to so many DELICIOUS food spots that locals go to, and gave us so many recommendations for the rest of our trip!I cannot emphasize enough how grateful I am that I booked this tour and not another big bus tour or large company. Choose this company!
