Hawaiian Islands
My wife and I are planning a trip to Hawaii. I've already checked into plane rental, but there's not much to choose from, and the sign-off flight schools won't let you get signed off and then rent the same day. I've given up on rental.
Has anyone taken an air tour in a four-place, with a CFI? Any recommendations?

As I read through your post, my first thought was "Rent a CFI"!
Presumably s(he) will have local knowledge of sights and hazards. You can either fly or just ride along and enjoy the sights. Years ago I rented a plane and CFI in the Bay area so I could take a friend up. It worked out great!

Yes, that's my fallback plan for exactly the reasons you mentioned.
I'm hoping someone who's actually done this in Hawaii will chime in with a recommended flight school and "must-sees" in the islands. The islands certainly offer some challenges for this mid-western flat-lander.
