Welcome to VIP Tours and Activities!

Vip history, from our hawaiian ohana to yours....

My name is Robert Jeremiah, and I am proud Hawaiian, born and raised on the beautiful island of Oahu. I am a happily married family man, and for me, Ohana is of utmost importance. With over 20 years of experience in Hawaii’s tourism and customer service industry, my journey has taken me from working as a tour agent and hotel concierge to fulfilling my dream of starting my own tour agency.

Throughout my extensive career in the Hawaii tourism industry, I noticed many areas where tours and activities lacked the personal touch and attention to detail that truly make a visitor's experience special. This realization inspired the creation of VIP Tours and Activities.

At VIP Tours and Activities, we are dedicated to providing premier tour experiences in Oahu, Hawaii. Our company has grown to become a leading provider of high-quality, personalized tours that showcase the island's natural beauty, rich culture, and vibrant history.

We cater to both tourists and locals who are seeking unique and memorable experiences. Our tours are meticulously crafted to ensure that you not only see the sights but also feel the spirit of aloha that makes Hawaii so special. Whether you're snorkeling with sea turtles, exploring historical landmarks, or enjoying the breathtaking landscapes, we strive to make every moment unforgettable.

Thank you for choosing VIP Tours and Activities. We look forward to sharing the wonders of Oahu with you.

Mahalo, Robert Jeremiah

I definitely enjoyed my Turtle Canyon Catamaran Snorkel Cruise with VIP Tours and Activities. We booked online, and everything was confirmed without any issues. The tour guide called the day of the tour to confirm and give directions - such great service! Once on the catamaran, we received a full (and entertaining) briefing for safety and a preview of what the tour would be like. The captain and snorkeling tour leader were both really funny and friendly, and made sure everyone was comfortable and ready. Once we reached the destination in Turtle Canyon, we saw lots of turtles as soon as we got in the water. There were other tour groups there as well, but the area is big enough to accommodate lots of people in the water. I think on Oahu, this is only second to Hanauma Bay in terms of the amount of sea life I saw in the water - I was really impressed. We were in the water about an hour, maybe a bit longer. I feel like we definitely got our money's worth. Back on the boat, the staff had refreshments waiting for us, which was a nice way to end the experience. We were lucky enough to catch a rainbow on our way back to the docks! This was a great tour, led by experienced staff, and I highly recommend it!

I left some of my luggage on the bus and they went above and beyond to ensure that my luggage was returned to me. Awesome customer service!
