Hawaii
Loved the dole plantation and the gorgeous beaches away from Waikiki fun to see the island
The sunset above the clouds at the summit of Mauna Kea was truly magical. It was an unforgettable beauty. And the starry sky. At first, I told my son, "There aren't as many stars as I thought," but as it got completely dark, the sky was filled with stars! The guide's explanations were enjoyable, and I truly felt that it was a tour worth taking. Thank you very much.
マウナケア山頂雲の上のサンセットは、本当に幻想的でした。忘れられない美しさでした。
そして星空。最初「思ったほど星の量ないね」と
息子に言っていたのですが、完全に暗くなってくると
空が星で埋め尽くされていました!ガイドさんの説明も楽しく、行ってよかったなぁとこころからそう思えるツアーでした。ありがとうございました。
Unfortunately most of the wonder has been lost. A relaxing ride on a river filled with kayakers.
The site is well kept and attractive. The boat is clean and roomy. There is entertainment one way and on the way back, information about the area and the River. At the Fern Grotto you have a short walk into the forest area and a view into The Grotto. I was hoping for more historical information and a closer look at the grotto.
What disappointed me with this trip was the last minute change of pick up to another location due to an event but after careful observation, that said event does not affect the area where we were at because a lot of other tour companies are picking their guests in front of our hotel. Despite my plea, it wasn't attended to. The staff and Manager were stern not to accommodate a simple request.
If you're pressed with time and wants to see all of OAHU'S best, this is the best tour amongst all available in the market. It is understandable if you can't spend to much a time in each place but substantial enough for sightseeing and snapping photos. I love the Shrimp lunch I had at Kualoa's Ranch.
The Chief was so funny and endearing.
The dancers were fabulous as were the fire dancers.
Es war ein sehr interessanter Tag.
Alles war gut organisiert.
Mit dem Audioguides konnte man alle Informationen bekommen.
Leider war die Gepäckabgabe sehr teuer, 2 Rucksäcke kosten 20 $, wir dachten nicht dafür noch extra zahlen zu müssen.
Such a great experience !
My husband and I went kayaking before we were married. Now we have two little ones and wanted to get to the beautiful Fern Grotto. I am so thankful for this trip that we could share is with our 3 and 1 year old. Thank you for having this opportunity
It was very well run and a calming quick boat ride. We walked to see the fern grotto which was beautiful and our tour guide also helped sing a wedding song to us. It was cute. We had a chance to take pictures. A bathroom was available. We were sung to on the way back as well.
Yoshi is an excellent, enthusiastic guide who takes great pictures! He provided a lot of neat information about Maui and Haleakala along with extensive knowledge about the stars. You are picked up from fairly accessible locations, and I'm glad to pay for someone experienced in driving the roads, which can get narrow and quite close to cliff edges. Three stops along the way before the peak to get accustomed to the gradual climb in altitude. The actual crater couldn't be seen due to clouds, but Haleakala was still quite beautiful to see. I chose the sunset tour because I didn't want to get up that early for sunrise, and I'm glad I did! I was well rested and the sunset was beautiful. Yoshi provided comfortable camp chairs, warm coats, gloves, and hot tea as we waited for the sunset. You need to bring your own dinner, so don't forget to pack it! It was great, super peaceful, quiet, and comfy! Once night fell, Yoshi brought out some high-tech telescopes and pointed out constellations. I got to see Mars! It was a very clear night and amazing to see all the stars filling the sky. Informative and quite the experience. Afterwards, he drove us back. I really enjoyed this tour and highly recommend!
The tour was super informative and interactive. I liked how the activities were all unique and complemented each other well. My favorite was the stop at Halona Blowhole, as I had never encountered a cove that beautiful before. Overall an incredible experience!
Ride to the ship was ok. Getting onboard was good. Overall food on deck 2, roast beef menu was subpar. Not good enough to want seconds. Wife and I felt this excursion was way too long. Especially being on the water got boring and we love the water. Sorry but the entertainment was that exiting. We were just counting down the minutes to get off the ship. The staff was nice and accommodating but the overall feeling of wanting to stay on the ship died off after the first hour on board.
I participated with my wife and two daughters (ages 6 and 12). We were all very satisfied as we were able to see a stunning sunset along with many stars. They provided telescopes and binoculars, allowing us to observe closely, and thanks to Yamapi's guidance, we had a very enjoyable time with his rich knowledge and storytelling.
They do lend out warm clothing, but it can still be quite cold, so I recommend bringing layers to wear underneath. The cold seemed to affect the children particularly.
妻と娘2人(6, 12歳)とで参加してきました。
絶景サンセットとともに星もたくさん見られて全員大満足でした。
望遠鏡、双眼鏡もご用意していただき、じっくりと観察もできましたし、ヤマピーさんのガイドに関しては豊かな知識と話術でとても楽しく過ごすことができました。
防寒具は貸してくれますが、とはいえやはり寒いので下に着込めるものは持っていかれることをお勧めします。
特に子どもは寒さがこたえていたようです。
we saw the main museum, the shuttle bus takes you to the Base & Missouri for a tour. you need the full day to see it all.
saw the places mentioned, nice small group.
the driver didnt know any Hawaiian translations for the areas/names etc, the Bus/trolley people did. being from New zealand we all know what the names mean
Hello CJM,
Seems like you had a good time on the tour. Glad you got to see all the sights and sounds of Oahu. As far as Hawaiian Translations for certain areas, we might know a little but there is so much to learn. We will work on that and over time we should become a little more familiar. But thank you again for your review and hoped you enjoyed your time in Hawaii.

We thoroughly enjoyed this sightseeing tour, with driver & guide, Kaleo. He was helpful, informative and hilarious! Stories, quips and jokes all day long. We even learned how to pronounce "humuhumunukunukuapua`a"! We saw some highlights of the beautiful island of Kaua`i including the spouting horn blow hole and we were lucky enough to get a clear view of the waimea canyon, before the clouds rolled in! We had a tasty lunch at chicken in a barrell and sampled delicious coffee at the Kaua`i coffee plantation. The trail at the state park is very short and the order of the stops is different to that listed on the veltra site, but regardless we would 100% recommend this tour.
Tour was excellent, Aaron was a great host. Very informed, engaging. Had fun all along the way. We had plenty of time at all the stops to experience and enjoy. Made our 1st trip here an experience to remember. We are telling everyone if they come to the Island they need to take this tour.
In addition when we 1st booked, we were told that our location was around 90 minutes from the tour pickup. We chose to go ahead but very much appreciated the help and advice. Excellent service all around.
Outstanding food and drink along with spectacular views of Waikiki at sunset. Service was great and the show was very upbeat and both entertaining and educational. Would do this dinner cruise on future visits. Easy to book, our bus driver was on time and educated us about different places along the way to the ship.
I enjoy learning about WW2, so this was a nice tour for me. Seeing movie sites was super cool too. Our tour guide was great and very informative - but I'm sure this will be the luck of the draw for which guide you get.
Good service and excellent driver and tourist guide - well
versed and respectable person - Kudos to Marlon - He is a company asset.
Food was Great, music and entertainment was lots of fun!
Website easy to use.
Driver on time, and very helpful with local area.
Told him what we wanted to see and do, and he accommodated with ease.
Got stuck in traffic driving up the North shore, so he stayed a little longer for us.
Standing at the summit of Mauna Kea at an altitude of 4,200 meters, I was able to wait for the sunset without any discomfort thanks to proper altitude acclimatization. The sight of the sun setting between the various observatories from around the world was magnificent. During the stargazing, the explanations about the seasons and constellations were very clear and refreshing. The sandwiches for dinner and the hot chocolate were also very delicious.
標高4200mのマウナケア山頂に立ちますが、高度順応が適切にされ違和感なくサンセットを待つことができました。
世界中の天文台が立ち並ぶ隙間に太陽が沈んでいく様子は素晴らしいです。
星空観測では、季節や星座についての説明がとても分かりやすく新鮮でした。
夕食のサンドウィッチもホットチョコレートもとてもおいしかったです。
We had the best time. Loved everything about it. Our tour guy Jonah was amazing and very knowledgeable. Took our time since we were a smaller group. The diamond head hike was a bit harder than we thought with the baby but we took our time and made it up there. What a beautiful view!! It was worth it!!! Do not regret anything about this tour! It was amazing!!! The dole whip ice cream was amazing. The Lenard’s malasada was amazing too. Saw a few turtles and the food trucks was so delicious. We really enjoyed our time on this tour and we totally recommend to do this tour if you’re ever in Oahu Hawaii!!!

We really enjoyed our dinner cruise. The food was delicious, service was great, live performance entertainment was amazing, and the view was spectacular!
Aloha World
We thoroughly enjoyed our Night Cruise into Happiness last night with the Star of Honolulu crew and amazing entertainment
We did this cruise 41 years ago and it was just amazing then and spectacular now! The steak and lobster with the attentive crew made for a flawless experience! The main singer carried your spirit to the best times. We also loved the smooth jazz music Finally the Hawaiian dancers made us feel like true Ohana ❤️
Mahalo for another superb evening
Kualoa Ranch is clearly the best choice for outdoor adventures in Oahu. So much fun from start to finish! The farm, jungle, and movie locations tours were spectacular. Mahalo
The fun really starts when you get on the nice air conditioned bus. Our host on the bus was hilarious all the way to our destination. The show is in a wetnwild but honestly I forgot about half way to the beginning of the show. The food was good and the dancers were better. The chief was also a funny man and although you do get this amazing entertainment, you also get a little bit of history of the people of the islands. Overall it was a great show. We even got a souvenir
I wish I could have received more detailed information about Haleiwa Town, such as maps and travel time distribution. We did a quick tour around the town, but the explanations and movements were fast, and before I knew it, we had free time, which made me a bit flustered. However, seeing how quickly the parking lot filled up with cars by noon made me understand the urgency. Thank you for your help.
ハレイワタウンの詳しい情報を 地図や移動時間の配分など伺えたらよかったなあ と少し思いました 現地の町中を1周してくださいましたが 説明や移動が速くあっという間に自由行動となり 慌てました。 ですが 昼にはたくさんの車があつまりあっという間に駐車場は混雑しているのを見ると慌てていらっしゃるのも理解できました。お世話になりました
Thank you for your thoughtful review. We hope to incorporate your feedback into our future tours to make them even better.
ご丁寧なレビューありがとうございます。お客様のご意見を今後のツアーに活かしていいツアーにしていければと思います。
