Hawaii
This cruise was a very good time, the crew was very attentive and friendly, and it was a beautiful trip out on the water. Our cruise even had several whale sightings and even a one-in-a-lifetime view of the whales breaching close to the boat. 100% would do again!
We had an amazing time doing this excursion! The guys were so nice and made it extra fun! Only downfall was we went to purchase photos and the lady at the front desk said that we didn't have any on the sd cards. All n all a great experience! Would definitely recommend it!
We had an amazing time. So much fun! Would highly recommend. Wonderful way to get a from the ocean view of Oahu!
Beautiful! This is one things I will treasure most from my visit to Hawaii. Our tour guide was great and very knowledgeable! So many many things to do at the Ranch, ATV was the best!
Captain John and his crew provided us with an amazing time filled with beautiful views of Waikiki, Diamondhead and the sunset from the comfort of a catamaran. The crew was also helpful pointing out turtles, whales and other wildlife when they were present. The option to order food for the trip was helpful and the menu options were great! The crew made the trip enjoyable from beginning to end. This is a five-star experience!
Very knowledgeable staff and super friendly. Good adherance to the COVID protocols. Food was delicious and better than we expected. The only bummer was we were sitting on the wrong side of the ship to watch the sunset:(
The guide was very informative and showed us all of the unique characteristics of the valley. Would take the tour again and it was a lot of fun for all eight of us.
Our captain and Amy were Amazing! We saw so many schools of spinner dolphins. Amy told us when to look and where to see some amazing things. They let us enjoy our ride and even almost got to see a whale, it got away. I would definitely recommend this tour.
Nick, Liz and the other girl whos name I can't remember were amazing! They accommodated all our needs and beyond. Sea Quest is awesome. They charged my phone for me while we went out, because my battery was almost dead. Came back and had 74%. Thanks so much to our Captain, our mermaids lol and the rest of the amazing team, for an amazing time and for an unforgettable memory
It was really great, nice view of the sharks, enough time, just enough people in the cage, perfect, I will just suggest that the guides are a little more excited about the tour itself, maybe they were not excited because it was 1 p.m.
I lived on Oahu, and have attended many of the popular, industrial, Luaus on the island. Due to Covid, most were closed, so we went with Waimea Valley Toa Luau. I can say it was by far the most intermate, and authentic luau I've ever been to. The "cheaper" tickets still have a great, elevated view. The members/staff/performers are all family and the demonstrations they have are authentic to their history. With the admission to Waimea valley included, you can easily make an entire day of exploring the valley and concluding with the Luau. It truly felt like a family cookout (which is the true spirit of a luau) and not an assembly line of people and mediocre food (as most other industrial luaus are). Homemade coco drink, and no less than 5 fire throwers at once, put Waimea Valley Toa Luau over the top for me. Also, not a coconut bra in sight...
Aloha and mahalo for your review! We are very glad to know you had a marvelous time at the luau! We hope to see you again ^_^
It was our first time to parasail. We absolutely loved it! We never felt scared or unsafe. It was very exciting and fun. We went in a triple tandem and loved every minute of it. We wanted to schedule another outing but due to the holidays we couldn't fit it it. I highly recommend Hawaiian Parasail!!
In the morning, we were picked up at our hotel and taken by van to pick up other customers for the day. The driver and instructor was a Japanese-Brazilian man who had lived in Japan, so it was nice to chat with him during the ride. There were three of us participating, and one person was able to switch from kayaking to stand-up paddleboarding, which was helpful. Once we got out to sea, the guidance and advice about the current points and areas to be cautious of were accurate, allowing us to feel safe while riding. Carrying the boards and kayaks by ourselves was quite hard, but overall, we had a great time. For lunch, we could choose from the shop within the facility. Last time we had pizza, and this time we had a plate lunch. There was also a shop for marine goods, and during our free time, we could go shopping in Kailua.
朝は滞在のホテルまでピックUPしてもらえ、バンで次々とその日のお客様をピックアップです。
ドライバー兼インストラクターの男性は日本での生活歴のある日系の方でしたので道中も話しながら向かうことが出来たので良かったです。
三人で参加したのですが、一人カヤックからSUPにしていただけたので助かりました。
海に出てからも流れのポイントや注意する場所では声がけとアドバイスも的確で安心して乗れました。
自分でボードやカヤックを運ぶのは結構ハードでしたが、ひっくるめて楽しく過ごせました。
ランチも施設内のショップで選ぶことが出来ます。
前回はピザ、今回はプレートランチ、マリングッズのショップもあり、フリータイムにはカイルアにショッピングも可能です。
Amazing!!! 10/10 recommend! Staff was amazing, food was amazing-the overall experience was awesome! Will definitely do again. Staff was extremely friendly and accommodating! Had an amazing night, saw dolphins! Wasn’t sure what to expect but definitely worth it, wonderful experience!
It was a gorgeous view of the ranch. Our tour guides Dean and Kayla were very knowledgeable and friendly. It was a great experience for our entire family. The lunch was hearty and even filled up our big eaters!! Well done, we will certainly recommend this to travelers.
My husband and I had never been ziplining before, but we were really excited to try this out. The guides are SO awesome! They explain everything before you do it and they make you laugh along the way. They have "challenges" throughout the tour and they are such a blast! At the end of the tour they teach you how to do some tricks, which was SO cool! My husband Spiderman'ed and I hung upside down, spread eagle lol.
Thank you guys for such an incredible trip! We bought shirts and some stickers that are currently hanging on our fridge :)
WOW!!! What an INCREDIBLE experience!!!!!
My husband and I are both scared of sharks and he is very claustrophobic. We were worried how he would do in the cage. This was our FAVORITE part of Hawaii! As soon as you get to the spot, you immediately see sharks. They knew what we were doing there and they remember that the guides feed them, so they were all over the boat. Such a gnarly thing to see fins coming up right next to the boat!
There were eight of us on the boat and we were able to split into two groups so we could all have space and time inside the cage. It was SO COOL!! There were 8-12 Galapagos sharks swimming right next to us. They come so close to the cage, you could easily reach out and touch them, but do NOT do that lol.
We could not believe how much we loved this adventure. We recommend to everyone!!
My husband and I were on our honeymoon and wanted to do this atv adventure since we love Jurassic Park as well as riding in the mud.
This was SUCH a blast! You don't drive more than 15 mph and we are used to our turbo canam at home, but this was perfect because you got to enjoy all the scenery and take pictures while driving. The views are absolutely spectacular! You see all over the island. Our guide, Hayden, was awesome! He was very knowledgable and had some great dad-like jokes, so he always had us cracking up. We were able to stop three separate times. Hayden said as long as the group stays together and at the same speed, you get to make more stops throughout the tour. Gave us plenty of time to take pictures and really see the views. We recommended to everyone we met throughout our trip!
Thank you for making our honeymoon such a memorable experience!
Highly recommend this place to anyone who wants to go sandbar . It's easy access and best way to kayak to sandbar !
Aloha! Thank you so much for joining us for a kayaking adventure! And thank you for taking the time to post such an awesome review and pictures. That is awesome and we really appreciate it! Look forward to seeing you again soon! Mahalo!
This is my third time at the Old Lahaina Luau, and I enjoy it every time because the quality of the performances is high. The food is delicious, and I'm happy with the unlimited alcohol and the desserts that are more than enough to eat. This time, when I tried to give a tip to the waiter, I was told, "It's included in the price," and they declined. I'm very satisfied with the banana bread as a souvenir.
3度目のオールド・ラハイナ・ルアウですが、パフォーマンスのクオリティが高いので毎回楽しんでいます。料理も美味しく、食べきれないほどのデザートと、飲み放題のアルコールも嬉しいですし、今回ウェイターにチップを渡そうとしたら「料金に含まれている」と言って断られました。お土産のバナナブレッド付きで大満足です。
Enjoyed this last minute booking that we did for the sunset watch extremely friendly staff and good service. A must do things for families visiting Hawaii for the first time. Great information was provided during this trip. All women's team did a wonderful job.
I couldn't imagine it being any more amazing. The tour guides were all really professional and a safety diver made sure we didn't accidentally swim into the boat. We got very good diving glasses as well. The sharks themselves were really calm and didn't show any aggression at all and none of us got afraid once they did show up. If i had to describe it, I'd say it feels a bit like standing in front of a cow, a horse, or a dolphin. You know they are multiple times as big as you and could easily kill you, but there is no danger as they simply don't behave like that. And the same goes for the sharks.
What an awesome experience that was well worth every penny. Kaleo was a authentic, personable, and knowledgeable tour guide, who was born and raised in the valley. He shared not only the history of the sacred valley, but also stories of his childhood and information on the local wildlife. The tour met at the art gallery, where there are restrooms and parking (and yummy ice cream). From there everyone gets in a van as Kaleo drives the group down to the back of the valley, an area off limits to the general public. The views are incredible from the top to the bottom and back.
Thank for your 5 star review. The windows on the van have been removed for a richer experience. Mahalo Gary
The driver this time was friendly and very knowledgeable. It's an English tour, and I recommend it. The bus was spacious and comfortable. Since it was a tour with dinner, we couldn't see the starry sky, but aside from that, there were no issues.
今回の担当ドライバーは,フレンドリーで知識も豊富でした。英語のツアーですがお勧めです。バスもゆったりとして快適でした。ディナーがあるツアーなので星空は見ることができませんでしたがそれを除けば問題なしです。
We had a great time on the Road to Hana. Our wonderful guide made some wonderful stops and shared a lot of interesting information with us along our journey. She made sure we got great pictures and had a wonderful experience. I lost the card with her name on it but she told us to call her Auntie. She has lived on the island for a long time and taught us so much about the history. It was all very interesting. I would highly recommend this tour.
Mahalo for taking the time to review and recommend your Road to Hana Cave-Quest adventure. Our Hawai'i Certified Tour Guides are well versed in so many areas of history, plants, and real stories. We are thrilled you enjoyed yourselves. The Road to Hana is certainly a one-of-a-kind experience that shouldn't be missed. Now, you will have wonderful photos to remember a very special day. Happy New Year.
All the best,

We had a great time on this tour. Our guide, Kama, was absolutely superb. He was kind, kept the transportation clean and safe, was a great driver and provided a wealth of knowledge along the way. The kids didn't mind having to wake up so early after seeing the beautiful sunrise.
It was cold at the top but our hotel was thoughtful enough to send us with blankets once they learned where we were heading out to. I would recommend bundling up at the top because it is chilly and you are there for a while.
The views were beautiful, the guide was very friendly And the ride was fun! We highly recommend to anyone! Thank you fir a wonderful time!
The waterfall is beautiful, the river is stunning in its peaceful beauty. The guide was so knowledgeable, engaging and funny; the food was so tasty! (I need to get the name of the place they got it from;-). Great experience overall, strongly recommend!
Aloha Libby, Thanks for taking the time to let us all know we are doing a good job. Makes it all worth it. Shoot us all when/if we ever loose our sense humor. Moral of the story is you can have fun and also be safe. Our caterer is Passions Bakery: https://www.passionbakeries.com/?v=7516fd43adaa
Stay well...and keep laughing and soon we wil be up and about.
A hui hou.

Went on the 1 1/2 hours sunset cruise with Captain Johnny and it was great. We enjoyed the trip and the sunset view was amazing. Tons of pictures and lots of fun. Very relaxing and enjoyable. Highly recommending this trip.
Our family had a wonderful time parasailing with these super friendly fun folks!
