This tour was comfortable, informative, and lots of fun. Our guide/driver Brandan is a safe driver and a genuinely nice person. He was born and raised on Maui, so he knew exactly where to go and what to see and do. For me, the best part of the trip was swimming under a waterfall; The cool water was so refreshing. Brandan also has a deep knowledge of Maui's history and Hawaiian culture which was invaluable as we learned so much about Maui's amazing natural environment from him.

This was a great day out and well worth it.

Also, like to give a shout out to our shuttle driver Kevin. He's from our neck of the woods so it was a real pleasure chatting with him.

Seeing the sun set above the cloud line is a once in a lifetime experience. Our guide, Fernando, made the night that much more enjoyable with the knowledge (and parkas) he shared. After the spectacular sun set we went further down the mountain to star gaze. The telescope he had was amazing, and it was super cool to see so many, and different, stars we see at home. This was a 10 out of 10 experience and I would highly recommend it..

So fun! Found it through a Groupon, and we totally got our money's worth. Take this cruise!

Such a fun adventure! I was expecting it to be much more slow, on more paved roads, but it was an actual good side-by-side trail with some mildly technical spots and a good amount of speed. We loved it!

Great trip on the river! The captain was very informative on the local culture. The crew performed a dance at the grotto and also performed several dances on the way back on the boat. A good value.

Great trip, very well organized Guides are very attentive and enjoyable .

Wonderful ride and day! Patricia and Kaleo guided us through a beautiful ranch!! Great horses! Jack & Liz

Our group of 8students had a good time, great weather and the entertainment and walking through the grotto was beautiful. A well run event.

This wasn’t just a commercialized Luau. It was a cultural experience. Great food, fantastic dancing, fun activities, and a moving story. All approved by the elders. We couldn’t have had a better time. Highly recommended .

Bailey and Larry were fantastic! We did well bottom fishing, and then caught this 25 pound ono on the trip home! Great experience, great time would recommend to anyone

10/10 recommend. Great staff. Friendly. Great music.

This was our 3 son's first trip to Hawaii. I wanted to make it special for them. It was great to see the sign that said MURPHY after getting off our flight. I knew exactly where to walk the boys. They were greeted very pleasantly and they were so excited to start their Hawaii vacation this way.

Had the best time we didnt see any whales but Jeremey and the staff was great

We had such a fun visit to the Manoa Chocolate Factory on Oahu with my toddler daughter. She loved it, and so did I.

The tour starts with a really interesting intro about how they source cacao locally, which gives the chocolates unique flavors from different islands. The chocolate fountain tasting was definitely a highlight for us. Everything was so rich and delicious.

We ended up picking up a few chocolates to take home. Highly recommend stopping by and supporting a local business like this.

The staff was amazing ! The dolphins are angelic. We had an awesome experience. Thank you so much .

Really enjoyed the food and entertainment both while eating and fabulous Polynesian show afterwards. Even liked the poi. I ate it with the lomi lomi salmon and it was really great that way. The Polynesian show was one of the best saw here on the Islands. Had a great story line that really made the show. Great music all the way through.

Wonderful experience for an almost 73 year old person with a new knee. Staff very helpful in getting me there and onto the inner tube for the float through the tunnels and open areas. Great fun and well worth it even though it eas raining.

I had to share the experience to my sister and her family that my kids and I had the first time we went here back in June 2025. For my nephew's bday March of 2026, I suggested to go to the Kaneohe sand bar again. The consistency of their best service is just really incredible. From the warm welcome of the staff, the island vibe voices of the singers, the lifeguards who constantly keeping an eye to the kids, the captain who made the banana boat super exciting and safe. The place, the view and the people gave us all an unforgettable experience. Looking forward for the next visit, hopefully with the rest of our extended family. Mahalo/ Salamat!

My friend and I had a great time. Ronson was great knew all about the ranch and the habitat. I loved the ponds with fish to use for fertilizer. The ocean view was awesome and we did a couple whales. Thanks so much for a great ride.

The tour guides were friendly and wonderful!!
I highly recommend this tour.

The boat were large and covered. The bride was smooth and pretty. Interesting commentary. Good music. Fun hula dancer. The fern grotto was beautiful especially in the rain. Nice walk, not hard. All in all. An outstanding trip for a rainy days. Must be great in the sun also.

We enjoyed the all day view of many areas of the island.

We had a great time! Our guides were amazing and although it was treacherous at times, we felt safe. Beautiful scenery!

We went out after the storm and the sea was calm, the sky was grey. The staff members were professional and friendly and the boat is perfect with different levels for spotting whales. We saw lots of momma and baby whales for this late March and were happy with our trip! Mahalo to all!

​The evening began with a warm welcome as guests boarded the catamaran around 5:00–5:15pm, accompanied by live music at the dock. Light snacks were available and an open bar offered a variety of tropical cocktails and local beers, creating a fun, relaxed atmosphere. The boat was quite full, which led to long lines at the bar and limited snacks at times. The sail departed around 5:30pm and lasted about an hour. Ocean conditions were still a bit rough following recent storms, but we were still able to spot a few whales, which added a special touch to the experience.

​After returning to shore, we headed straight to the luau and arrived while dinner and entertainment were already in progress, so we likely missed some of the pre-show activities such as hula lessons and cultural demonstrations. Dinner was described as a buffet, but it was actually set up more like a series of food trucks, kiosks, or booths, where guests visited different stations to receive plated items. While this setup provides a wide variety of options, it can also lead to using multiple plates per person.

​The food​ was catered by Moani Island Bistro, which was flavorful and well-prepared. Seating was first-come, first-served for this event, ​but even though​ we were seated in the back, we still had a good view of the stage. The show itself featured engaging storytelling, Polynesian dances, and impressive production elements like lighting and visuals, giving it a polished, theatrical feel.​

Overall, the combo offers a unique way to experience both a sunset sail and luau in one evening. However, timing overlaps may cause guests to miss some activities, and those sensitive to motion may find the boat portion challenging.

Ernie was a treat to have as our tour leader, excellent host! Lunch was super. Overall I feel we had the best tour I could have asked for.

Our family had the best, and most gracious experience on our whale tour! This company truly cares about the species and their environment and it shows. They are knowledgeable, friendly, and accommodating. We can’t wait to come again!

We had a great experience. Joshua communicated well. We needed to make a last minute venue change, due to the weather. Everything worked out perfectly!

Can't wait to take a slow ride down the canals again. Our guides were awesome.

We really had a good time. As the person in the very front, I got pretty wet, but the water was not cold at all. It was awesome seeing Waikiki from a surfer’s perspective.
