Overview

**Private boat tour for up to 6 people.** Larger group? Call for options.

Escape the crowds and join us on 2-hour private whale watching cruise you won’t soon forget.

Want to see some whales? Come find them with us. We can cover more ground in our whale watching adventures because we can go farther and faster than other tour boats, ensuring that you get a good look at these graceful giants. From the east side to the west side, we can reach the entire southern coast of Oahu on this trip. Because this is a private charter, the experience is fully customizable and the adventure is up to you!

*Whales are wild animals in their natural environment. They do not keep an organized schedule, and therefore we obviously cannot guarantee that we will find them during your scheduled tour. We will do our best, however, and our best is better than most. We usually succeed in finding them.

Sorting, ranking, and search results

Activity name

City Boat Tours wants to make your searches as relevant as possible. That's why we offer many ways to help you find the right experiences for you.

On some pages, you can select how to sort the results we display and also use filter options to see only those search results that meet your chosen preferences. You'll see explanations of what those sort options mean when you select them.

If you see a Badge of Excellence label, the award is based on average review ratings, share of bookings with a review, and number of bookings through City Boat Tours over a 12-month period.

The importance of any one factor over any other in a sort order varies, and the balance is constantly being reviewed and adjusted. We're always updating our systems and testing new ways to refine and improve your results to make them as relevant as possible to meet your needs.
