Aloha! My name is Rieley, and I am a certified tour guide here on O'ahu. Coming from the Midwest, I fell in love with the island and feel grateful to be able to share it with others every day. For me, the best part of being a tour guide is sharing the beauty, history, and culture of this incredible place with people from all over the world. Every day is an opportunity to connect and engage. I love watching visitors’ faces light up as they discover the magic of the island, and it’s rewarding to know I’m helping create memories they’ll cherish back home. As a younger guide with a deep respect for history, I bring a fresh perspective to exploring the island. I specialize in Pearl Harbour tours and full-island experiences that blend meaningful storytelling with the island’s natural beauty. I love introducing guests to beautiful local spots, sharing the history of O'ahu, and creating an experience that feels personal, relaxed, and unforgettable. I love to hike, surf, and sail around the islands in my free time, and that passion carries into every tour—whether we’re cruising the North Shore to check out the big wave surfing, discovering the Southeast Coast and its views, or hiking to the top of Diamond Head, I strive to make your day unforgettable.

Explore Oʻahu from the land and sea
Overview of your Honolulu tour
Experience the best of Oʻahu by land AND sea on this immersive full-day adventure along the island’s breathtaking southeast coast. Your morning begins with a scenic drive past dramatic sea cliffs, lava tubes, and panoramic coastal lookouts along the Makapuʻu Coast. Feel the power of the Pacific as waves crash against rugged volcanic formations and take in sweeping views from iconic viewpoints. This is Oʻahu at its most raw and awe-inspiring. After exploring the island’s striking landscapes, transition seamlessly from mauka to makai as you step aboard your private catamaran for a relaxed 2-hour sail along the coast. With the trade winds at your back, enjoy time to swim, snorkel in crystal-clear waters, or simply unwind on deck. During the winter months, you may even spot migrating humpback whales offshore. **Charter options include either a 1pm-3pm sail, or 5pm-7pm sail
