Discover Oahu’s North Shore from Waikiki with The Surf Bus - Snorkel, Kayak, SUP & Waimea Falls

A wonderful adventure

Reviewed by: Kellie

Sam was our tour guide and did a great job. It was the perfect balance between plenty to do and downtime. We did the falls and then paddle boarding up the river, where we saw sea turtles. The entire day was perfect. I would highly recommend it.

Entertaining

Reviewed by: Lynna Ampe

I would have given Chief’s Luau a Great, because the entertainment was the best. Thee food ok. How ever I took our two boys 15 and 16. Paid adult prices. Was told by Veltra, that they could have a virgin Mai tai or coke, sprite, etc.. however they would not give the guys drinks unless I paid extra for them.

Amazing way to see Oahu and learn more about its history and culture

Reviewed by: Shauna

This was an amazing tour!! Our your guide Lola was great. She was friendly, understanding and knowledgeable. Beyond the sights we saw she was able to give us a glimpse into the real Oahu. She had great tips for our lunch stop and made sure we got the most out of our tour. This tour would be great for families, couples single travelers really announce that wants to see the island in comfort. The tour pickup spot was close to our hotel so that made it easy for us.

Ultimate Hawaii Circle Island Sightseeing, Kilauea Volcano & Waterfall Tour

Great way to see the Big Island in a day!

Reviewed by: Sandy and Phil

We were only on island for two days, so we had to make the most of it. Rich picked us up promptly and we set out with a total of nine passengers. The van was comfortable, and Rich had water and lunch ready for us, along with clean jackets and umbrellas for the chilly rainy segments of the trip. The drive was safe and pleasant, and Rich regaled us with information and stories. At each stop, he allowed us ample time and shared interesting information.

This was a wonderful day, and we not only saw the island but also learned a lot. Highly recommended, especially if you can get Rich as your driver/tour guide!

Budget-Friendly Pearl Harbor Shuttle with Reserved USS Arizona Memorial Tickets & Transportation

Waikiki Trolley Salute to Pearl Harbor

Reviewed by: Pamela

This Pearl Harbor tour was more than what I had expected. I expected to just be dropped off at the location of Pearl Harbor to tour it on my own, which would have been ok. But the trolley ride was enjoyable, and the driver was very knowledgeable and informative about the events or Pearl Harbor, and also the history of the island as well. He was very entertaining, humorous and personal able, relating well with his clients, getting them involved in the tour. He assured that we all know what to expect and what was expected of us. We had plenty of time to explore and to pay or respect to the men and the events of that terrible day in history. I would recommend this tour to all I know when they visit Oahu and hope that they are lucky enough to get our guide for this experience.

Waimea Valley Toa Luau & Free Admission Entry Ticket to Waimea Falls [5:00 PM]

Going back!

Reviewed by: Heidi

We were initially skeptical of going to any Luau after a previous experience we had on Maui. We were concerned it would feel like a crowded dinner show instead of an authentic experience. We live on Oahu and had guests who really wanted to go. Tao Luau appealed to us because Waimea Falls is a beautiful setting away from resorts, and it has way less occupancy for the event then the others (200 compared to up to 800!). We were pleasantly surprised at the warm welcome, hands on experience, delicious dinner, and stunning show. We have visitors coming in a week, and more in the summer, and have already booked for two more times!

Aloha Heidi, and mahalo for your review! We are pleased to know you had a great experience at the luau, which was initially not what you thought it was. We are glad we have changed your mind about activities like ours. We have planned everything about the luau having one goal - make it a great experience for everybody. Come see us again when you can :-) Mahalo!

Royal Star Grand Circle Island Tour - East Oahu, Pali Lookout, Haleiwa & Dole

Must Do!

Reviewed by: Marleen

Initially we planned to rent a car and explore the island from Waikiki, driving to different areas multiple days. But, corona (and Hawaii reopening) caused a shortage on rental cars apparently and so we were not able to rent a car after all. Then we found this tour and we couldn’t be any happier with it! It not only allowed us to see the island of Oahu, we also got all the extra information that we wouldn’t have gotten without Lola, our driver and tour guide. We stopped at the blowhole, the Pali of Nu’uana viewpoint, a macadamia plantation, the valley of temples, Haleiwa, dole plantation, and passed the north shore beaches and many other beautiful sights, also Honolulu. After the team we even regret more than we couldn’t go again and spend some time at the places suggested by Lola. Therefore, my recommendation is to do this tour first (at the beginning of your vacation) and then try to go to the places you liked the most. And Lola was just hands down the best tour guide. She brought water and Poi Donuts —> delicious!! And she was so energetic in telling us all the stories about the island and what she used to do or used to go as a kid. This whole experience felt more like connecting to Oahu than anything else we did during our time there. Highly recommended!

The best tour!

Reviewed by: Kasey T

Wow! I am so impressed by this tour. When my family originally planned this, I thought it would be boring. However, I was blown away. Our tour guide, Lola, was SO amazing. She was so knowledgeable and personable. I am shocked at how much I learned from her. She made the day go by so fast- I wasn’t even ready to leave. She even brought us Poi donuts. It was so cool to eat from the local restaurants- I never would have ventured to do this on my own.
This is a must! Don’t even hesitate. It’s worth every penny.

Reviewed by: Lval

As a parent of 7 year old twins, who seeks out kid friendly activities, I’m so grateful I chose this show. This was their first show since COVID. They offered a selection of kid friendly food which I appreciated. The rest of the food was amazing and the drinks were delicious! Now to the entertainment. This group of performers were so enthusiastic that the captured my kids attention the whole time. The story they told was beautiful. My kids were doing their best to follow the dancers moves and the waitstaff were so kind to compliment them. The fire dancer at the end got a standing ovation! From the music and performers to the food and staff, they all exceeded any expectations! Well done!

Big Island Afternoon Whale Watch Tour from Kona - Body Glove Cruises [Dec - Mar]

Where are the whales?

Reviewed by: Disappointed

I have been on a whale watching tour in the past and the captain took us directly to where the whales were and we were so close and able to get great pictures for the entire tour. That was not the case here; we were constantly looking for whales and all we ever saw was the “blow” and some splashing from quite a distance. It was very disappointing. I would think these guys would know where to go since they do this everyday. We were in the boat for several hours and never saw anything to identify this as a good trip! I would have expected them to take us somewhere to see the whales, we seemed to hang out in the same area just hoping a whale would show up!
The boat was very nice and the people were nice too but the whales were missing!! This was the beginning of February, isn’t that the best time?

Reply from activity provider

Aloha and thank you for joining us on our tour.

Unfortunately whales are not stationary animals and try as we might, we have not gotten them to agree to be on payroll.
As whale watching is a gamble by nature, we offer a guarantee of whale sightings or come again free. We wish you would have taken us up on it so you could have come out on another day. We hope the rest of your vacation on the big island was great!

Chief's Luau - Polynesian Show with Authentic Award-Winning Fire Knife Dancing

Great time even through the rain!

Reviewed by: Mainland Friends

My girlfriend and I just recently attended the luau on Valentine’s Day. We were welcomed in and sent straight to our table which was set up very nicely. The show was absolutely amazing even though I feel it was a little short. It started raining pretty heavily and although we appreciated the ponchos it does seem that tents should have been built to avoid what the forecast predicted. This made it really difficult for us to enjoy our food because everything was soaked. All in all the food was decent. We did however have to wait 15 to 20 minutes for someone to notice our on the table signifier for a waitress or bartender to serve us. Fortunately it did work out in our favor as by the time our food and drinks arrived the rain had settled. The chief was extremely funny and we have an experience that we plan to take back to the mainland and talk about for years to come. If you do happen to go to the luau make sure you check the weather because I guarantee you would enjoy it more with clear skies. To the event, I was strongly suggest that pop-up tents are invested in so that customers can truly enjoy the night as expected regardless of the weather.
