Luxury Convertible Tour to Oahu’s North Shore — Private 6‑Hour Custom Experience
Experience Oahu’s North Shore in a private Chrysler 300C convertible — six hours of customizable stops from Dole Whip to Waimea waterfall swims, snorkeling with gear included, and surf-spot photo ops. Ideal for travelers who want flexibility with a local driver.
The Experience
Before You Go
Book a morning start
Morning light calms the bays for snorkeling and avoids heavier afternoon traffic returning to Waikiki; plan to be on the North Shore by 9–10 a.m.
Use reef‑safe sunscreen
The tour provides snorkel gear but not sunscreen — choose reef‑safe formulas to protect coral and marine life.
Respect turtle zones
When you spot green sea turtles, keep at least 10 feet distance and never touch or feed them to avoid fines and disturbance.
Pack a dry bag and cash
Small vendors and food trucks accept cash; a dry bag keeps phones and wallets safe during beach stops and boat-splash conditions.

Conservation Note
This coastline includes protected reefs and turtle‑resting beaches — follow local rules, use reef‑safe products, and avoid trampling dune vegetation to reduce impact.
