The crew for this cruise was amazing. They were always asking if they could get us something. So pretty to see the sunset in Hawaii from the boat. Drinks and appetizers were very good, definitely worth the money.

Oahu North Shore Beach Horseback Riding Experience - Daytime Tours
We loved it!
Activity Date: 2022/01/14 | Posted on: 2022/02/06

My daughter said this was the highlight of her entire experience in Hawaii and we did so so many other things.! The guides were top notch. The place may look a little rustic at first. There are goats kind of roaming around lol but everything was extremely professional. we learned a lot about the horses and we got to go on the beach. they took a lot of time to take photos so that we could enjoy our memories.

Kaneohe Sandbar Tour with Snorkel, Kayak, SUP & Live Hawaiian Music - Kaneohe Bay Ocean Sports
Once is not enough
Activity Date: 2022/02/04 | Posted on: 2022/02/06

This was the highlight of our brief stay in Hawaii. My only regret is not having done this sooner. And after having experienced it, I can’t wait to do it again when I come back to Oahu. I love snorkeling, but two of the things that I was apprehensive about were deep waters and catamaran rides because I sometimes get motion sickness. But the catamaran ride and the live music were so smooth, I enjoyed the ride. The singers had amazing voices, and their island songs put everyone in a relaxed mood. The crew were very informative and helpful, even the most novice person felt at ease. We swam in deep waters, but I felt safe because a crew member was always nearby and kept a close eye on everyone. I didn’t get to see more that one giant turtle who was luckily resting at the time; otherwise, I probably wouldn’t have seen any. But I still had a great time seeing fishes, paddle boarding, kayaking, and just relaxing in the calm waters. Thank you for a wonderful experience!

Best way to enjoy sunset in Waikiki!
Activity Date: 2022/01/16 | Posted on: 2022/02/05

Sunset in Hawaii is the best, and this is one of the best way for you to enjoy the sunset. We were so lucky on that day, we saw a lot of whale. The music was good, the crew was super nice and friendly. They even offered to take the pictures for us. We loved the experience so much, and definitely we will do it again when we come back to Waikiki next time

Passport to Pearl Harbor Ticket - Official One-Day Admission & Self-Guided Tour
Pearl Harbor
Activity Date: 2022/01/13 | Posted on: 2022/02/05

Ease of the tour, no hassle. The experience is depressing but educational. It is nice to know more about history. But one day was not enough to read and study. The audio tour on USS Arizona helped. They should make audio tour also on the USS Missouri and USS Bowfin. I would definitely buy a tour from this website again. How I wish the website will send coupons also to frequent fliers. I am planning to buy tickets to Polynesian center next time I go back to Oahu. The price is reasonable. Thank you.

Polynesian Cultural Center Admission Ticket with 6 Island Villages & Canoe Ride

Activity Date: 2022/01/10 | Posted on: 2022/02/05

I went to the Polynesian Culture Center with my mom while visiting family in early January. The employees were so kind and the interactive activities were a much fun! Learning how to start a fire with a coconut skin, how to weave, and so many more shows and performances to watch and do! Plus the shopping center out front doesn’t hurt either!

This was the trip of a lifetime. Gorgeous views of the ocean and the mountains, touring where your favorite movies were filmed, and seeing my wife drive the raptor through the jungle were all priceless experiences. 10 out of 10 would definitely recommend this trip to any and everyone. Children friendly as well, and the tour guides were more then happy to help and explain everything we needed

Royal Star Grand Circle Island Tour - East Oahu, Pali Lookout, Haleiwa & Dole
A wonderful tour with a great host!
Activity Date: 2022/02/01 | Posted on: 2022/02/03

We took the Grand Circle Island Tour with Royal Star on 1st Feb 2022. Our driver and guide was Lola, who was extremely friendly, knowledgeable and funny. Lola peppered the entire trip with a lot of not so well known facts and trivia which made us appreciate the various destinations on our tour memorable. The itinerary was well planned and there was sufficient time allocated for us to get a good sense of the places we were visiting. We were also treated to delicious poi (Portuguese donuts) for breakfast which was a nice little bonus.

Overall, the tour was fantastic, well worth the time and money. I would highly recommend it for any first time travelers who are looking to get the best of Oahu in a day’s time.

Shark Diving Hawaii - Cageless Pelagic Snorkel Tour with FREE Photos & Videos
Amazing Shark experience!!!
Activity Date: 2022/01/27 | Posted on: 2022/02/03

This was such a great experience for my son and I. The crew was super awesome, very safe and knowledgeable about the area and types of sharks. Loved that they took video and pictures using there own equipment so we didn’t have to worry about bringing our own equipment.

I am so happy that we did this!!!! At the end of this amazing experience, we got to see a whale since it’s what season right now

Hands down, best freaking company to go shark diving with!!!! Got to see so many sharks and it was truly an amazing experience.

Looking forward to doing it again when I visit!!!!

KOA picked us up and was a very enjoyable and safe driver. We had a perfect sunny morning to hike and it was absolutely gorgeous! All of us in our group that hiked are in our 60’s and was not to difficult of a journey for us. The views on the way up and down were beautiful, but the views from the top were breathtaking! One of our favorite excursions while visiting the Hawaiian Islands.

Royal Star Grand Circle Island Tour - East Oahu, Pali Lookout, Haleiwa & Dole
Great way to see the whole island

This was a great way to see the highlights of Oahu in one day. Our driver, Tony was very informative as we rode in his bus. We were vacationing with friends who had never visited Hawaii before so this was the perfect way for them to see the main tourist spots. We have taken a similar tour 19 years ago so we enjoyed refreshing our memories. I was happy that we were able to spend extra time in Haleiwa. It was a fun place to browse the shops and have lunch at a shrimp truck. The stops on the tour gave us ample time to take photos and get out of the bus to enjoy the special places in Hawaii. We really appreciated having a driver and guide who was easy to understand and was knowledgeable about the island. Once you have taken a tour like this , you will know if there are any areas of the island that you might want to visit for a longer period of time and then can return there on your own or on another tour to just that place. Covid restrictions have limited some experiences but that is not the fault of the tour company. I would recommend this tour to others.

Captain Bob's Kaneohe Sandbar Snorkeling Tour & BBQ Lunch with Waikiki Pickup
Beautiful snorkel cruise
Activity Date: 2022/01/29 | Posted on: 2022/02/01

The staff was outstanding. We spent the first part going out to the sandbar, playing volleyball ball, eating and drinking. The food was incredible (for being burgers and sides). Next we went turtle watching and saw some massive turtles and manta-rays.
After, we headed to a coral reef shaped like a crescent moon and got to swim around on our own looking at fish and turtles. I definitely wish there was more sea life. But it’s their home not mine.
After we cruised around where they filmed parts of Gilligans Island and saw some amazing houses.
Then we made our way back and couldn’t stop talking about the experience.

Outrigger Canoe Surfing with Waikiki Beach Boys
The best thing to do in Waikiki
Activity Date: 2022/01/29 | Posted on: 2022/01/31

On our first day in Waikiki we started off with a thrill at Outrigger Canoe Surfing! The experience was fantastic from start to finish. Russell was the captain and he and his crew were phenomenal and with their encouragement we powered through the surf and set up for three exhilarating rides over the breaking waves. It felt as though we were surfing. I would recommend this again in a heartbeat.

Must do in Oahu!
Activity Date: 2022/01/03 | Posted on: 2022/01/29

This tour was the highlight of our recent trip to Oahu! My family and I were worried about rain but fortunately the crew checked in beforehand to confirm the trip. The crew was helpful, knowledgeable and friendly. The sandbar was such a one of a kind feature. Afterwards we spotted turtles and bat rays before spending an hour snorkeling at a nearby reef. The reef was active and full of fish. We saw turtles and such a good variety of sea life. Food was good and adult beverages were available for purchase. I would highly recommend this excursion.
