Aloha! My name is Dave Henao Living in the The Hawaiian Islands has given me a wealth of knowledge and experiences that have allowed me to appreciate, understand and embrace people of all walks of life from all over the world that call Hawaii home as well as visitors alike. I have always been fascinated by world history, religions, traditions and cultures. With over 17 years of experience in ground transportation, logistics, and private guiding on Oahu, I’ve built a trusted reputation for delivering exceptional, customized experiences that go far beyond the standard sightseeing itinerary —crafting journeys that celebrate the beauty, culture, and romance of Hawai‘i. My approach is rooted in personalization. Every tour is thoughtfully tailored to my guests’ unique interests, pace, and preferences, allowing them to discover Oahu in a way that feels effortless, meaningful, and deeply memorable. From post-card quality beaches and scenic lookouts to cultural landmarks and local flavors, I focus on creating authentic moments that leave lasting impressions. Resorts and hospitality partners value my professionalism, reliability, and dedication to service excellence. Guests enjoy the comfort and privacy , fully licensed and insured vehicle, with the assurance of safety at every step. My goal is not only to showcase the island’s treasures but also to embody the warmth and spirit of aloha—ensuring visitors time in Hawai‘i becomes a cherished memory.

Dori P.May 2026I wasn’t sure if using an individual instead of a company was a good plan for our first trip to Oahu but I’m so glad I found David on Tours by Locals! He is truly a professional and made our tour so very personal. We enjoyed our day with him and learned so much about the island, people and history. He not only suggested a perfect lunch spot but gave us the best pointers...

What an outstanding day! Dave truly exemplifies the aloha spirit. When our ship changed the times we could disembark, I was all stressed, but Dave just rolled with it. He met us, and I knew right away we were in for a great day. We saw everything we wanted and more as we covered most of the island. The stories, the history, the dad jokes, the learning and of course the...

I'm so glad everything worked out smoothly despite the ship schedule changes. In Hawaii, we learn to flow with the tides - and I'm happy we were able to turn the day into such a memorable adventure.

David did a lovely job under difficult conditions. We arrived the day before the historic floods, so the rain was beginning and David was careful to keep us safe. Nonetheless, we did see nearly all of the island. He was as attentive to our interests as was possible given the weather. We definitely recommend him.

Mahalo for such a thoughtful and honest review! It was truly an adventure navigating those historic floods with you. I’m so glad we were able to keep everyone safe and still manage to see nearly the entire island despite the rain beginning to come down. You were incredibly gracious guests given those difficult conditions. Aloha!

Dave provided us with one of the day long toys I've ever experienced! Seriously! We had crazy bad weather the week we were in Oahu, but Dave pivoted and showed us so many wonderful things in Oahu! He is a wealth of knowledge, and took us to experience all parts of the island. Bonus! He took lots of pictures of us and shared them the next day! Fabulous!
