Oahu Photo Tours — Local services in Honolulu

I came to Oahu for the sole purpose to go on a few tours I booked with Oahu Photography Tours, since I had such a fantastic last time with Mac the last time I joined. I was able to join on two different tours with guides Emily and Kurt, respectively. I took the Beautiful colors of Hawaii tour with Emily and two other gals and it turned into such a fun girls tour trip. We were laughing, having such a great vibe, and stopped in some wonderful places to take in the scenery and moments. She is so helpful with whatever was needed, shot ideas, taking some amazing photos of the folks and a calm demeanor. We even got to have the surprise of watching some whales come up and play in our view!

The Sunrise Tour with Kurt was a full, but comfortable tour. He is full of brilliant, creative ideas and stories, and obviously loves the island . We were able to stop at some amazing places, which were all welcome revisits for me from previous tours with the company. Great guides and great tours!

The only downside from this experience is the extremely hard time I've had in contacting the operator in various ways for different matters, from rescheduling, canceling my last tour and not responding to any replies I sent back to their questions about rescheduling and ultimately canceling and wanting to know if a refund could be given. I currently have it at a 5 star in hopes that I get a reply back finally shortly without having to hop through too many hoops again, but I will adjust accordingly if needed.

All in all, I would book again in the future for the guides, the views, the knowledge...

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Best Tour on the Island – Book with EMILY!

Hands down, this was the highlight of our trip to Oahu! We booked the full island tour for four people with Oahu Photography Tours, and it was worth every single penny—and then some. What truly made the experience unforgettable was our incredible guide, Emily.

From the moment we met her, Emily brought an infectious energy, warm personality, and deep knowledge of the island. She wasn’t just a tour guide—she was like our own personal ambassador to Oahu. She shared fascinating stories and local insights everywhere we went, making each stop come alive with culture, history, and fun.

But what truly set this tour apart was Emily’s eye for photography. She went above and beyond setting us up for some stunning shots—whether it was a majestic mountain backdrop, panoramic coastline views, or the now-legendary Jurassic Park photo with the dinosaur (we laughed SO hard at that one—it’s a forever memory!). The panoramic shots she took? Absolutely breathtaking. We seriously looked like we were in a magazine spread.

Emily is not only a walking encyclopedia of Oahu, she’s a professional-level photographer, a hype woman, and just an all-around awesome person to spend the day with.

If you’re coming to Oahu and want to experience the entire island while capturing memories that’ll last a lifetime, book this tour—and request Emily. You’ll leave with more than just beautiful pictures… you’ll leave with stories, laughter, and a deeper appreciation for the island.

Mahalo, Emily! You’re the...

We had an amazing experience on the Complete Island Adventure with Waterfall, and we can’t recommend it enough!

Our tour guide, Emily, truly made this experience unforgettable. From her fun, easygoing, and personable nature to her expert photography tips and tricks, every moment was a delight. She shared fascinating tidbits of Hawaiian history, culture, and nature, making every stop along the way even more meaningful.

Beyond the stunning sights, we loved the lively conversation, the perfect music soundtrack, and the overall energy of the tour. This was the perfect way to explore the beautiful island of Oahu without the hassle of renting a car, dealing with traffic, or struggling with parking.

The itinerary was fantastic, hitting all the best spots Oahu has to offer—from unforgettable vistas to the breathtaking waterfall and the serene Valley of the Temples. The schedule was well-balanced, allowing time to soak in each location without feeling rushed. And let’s not forget the amazing lunch stop with so many great options—the perfect way to refuel for the rest of the adventure!

By the end of the day, we felt like we had truly seen the best of Oahu. The 10-hour tour flew by in one breath.

Everything about this tour was impeccable, and we would recommend it to all of our friends—whether you're a photography enthusiast, nature lover or just looking for an incredible, stress-free way to explore Oahu. A...
