Oahu
I would highly recommend this tour of all the snorkeling tours. This is very good for swimmers and non swimmers as the water level is only about 4ft near the sandbar. There is a beautiful coral reef that swimmers can go. The instructors are very helpful for non swimmers as they take them personally to show the turtles.
Aloha and thank you so much for taking the time to write this wonderful review of yours. Your review is greatly appreciated and we hope to see you again. Mahalo!
Had a great time on our tour! The guides were excellent and the view is unmatched! I would do this again in a heart beat! I would recommend this to anyone!
Everything was amazing everyone made the best out of it even though it was raining.
This tour was amazing and one of the best I’ve been on. The entire staff was very attentive and happy. I will definitely be back.
This tour is very popular, so make your reservation early! I was planning to stay in Hawaii for two weeks, so I thought it would be fine to book after arriving, but it turned out that this was the only day available. I really wanted to go on this tour, so I was glad I could make it.
Since I planned to rent a car that day, I signed up without transportation and ended up starting with the next group after arriving a bit late. For two hours, we toured filming locations from LOST, Godzilla, King Kong, and Jurassic Park. You can see the ocean, but we didn't go to the beach.
The guide explained about Kualoa Ranch in a loud voice, so it was easy to hear. The horses were very well trained, so I felt safe riding them.
If you book on-site, it can be a bit cheaper, but considering the reservation situation, it's definitely necessary to book in advance.
It was a satisfying two hours. There are small souvenir shops and a restaurant on-site. They took photos at the beginning of the tour, and when we returned, I think they were available for purchase for about $20.
大変人気のツアーなので、お予約は早めに!
ハワイには2週間滞在する予定だったので、到着してからの予約でいいやと思っていたら、もうこの日しかないって現状でした。絶対に行きたいツアーだったのでよかったです。
レンタカーを借りる予定の日だったので、送迎なしで申し込み、少し遅れてしまい次のグループからスタートしました。2時間、LOST、ゴジラ、キングコングやジュラシックパークなどの撮影を巡っていきます。海は見えるだけでビーチは行きません。
ガイドは大きな声でクアロアランチの説明をしてくれるので、聞き取れます。馬はすごくトレーニングされていて安心して乗馬可能でした。
現地申し込みだともう少し安くできますが、予約状況など含めると絶対に事前予約必須です。
満足のいく2時間でした。
小さなお土産やさん、レストラン併設。ツアー最初に写真を撮ってくれて、最後戻ってきたら20ドルくらいだったかな購入可能
In December, I signed up with transportation included. I thought the ocean conditions would vary daily due to the tides. It was mentioned that there would be wetsuits on the boat, but there were none available. Inside the boat, there were tea, chips, and apples available for free.
When we arrived at the sandbar, the captain explained in English that we should not go behind the boat. In December, the water was quite cold, so it wasn't comfortable to stay in for long. We were brought back to the boat once for a snorkeling briefing. Personally, I think if they had explained it first, we wouldn't have had to come back up. It was too cold for me to go in a second time.
After the experience, I asked a local, and they said that due to climate change, the sea level has risen, making it rare for sandbars to form in recent years. At 148 cm tall, the water was just deep enough for me to stand. There were life jackets available. I felt that for this price, we could have done diving instead.
12月、送迎付きで申し込みました。海の状況は、満ち引きがあるため、コンディションは、日々違うと思って参加。
船内にウエットスーツがあると書いてありましたが、置いておらず。
船内にはお茶や、チップス、リンゴが置いてあります、自由に頂くことが可能です。
サンドバーに着いたら、船長より英語で船より後ろに行ってはいけないなどの説明があります。12月、水はかなり冷たいのでずーっと入ってられるという感じではありませんでした。途中で一回船に戻されて、シュノーケルの説明があります。個人的に、最初に説明すれば一度上がることなかったのになぁと思います。寒いから2回目入ることができませんでした。
体験後、現地の方に伺いましたが、温暖化の影響で海水量が増え、近年、サンドバーになる事は稀だそうです。身長148センチの私は、足がやっと着くくらいの深さでした。ライフジャケットはあります。この料金なら、ダイビングができたなぁと感じました。

The activities were great and the crew was helpful and friendly. It was a great experience! the volleyball game before the snorkeling was fun and helped everyone get to know each other, and the snorkeling was terrific. Highly recommended!
This was the best experience my husband and I had on our honeymoon, and the only thing we have been able to think about since we got back'! This was absolutely worth every penny spent, and I would do it again in a heartbeat!
A very well conducted tour highlighting the must see's around Oah'u. Danny, our guide provided us with so much information, both historical as well as cultural, making the experience memorable, despite the rains. Our entire group felt like an extended family, long-lost cousins just Danny mentioned, who stepped up to help me when I had a minor mishap. And Danny thank you for the tasty malasadas :)
Perfect experience. All the crew members were very active and supportive. Live event added lots of fun and excitement. I would prefer if time would be more. 2 hrs flies like anything. Crew member helped me in doing snorkeling and all the time juices and donuts were available.
This adventure is for the thrill-seeker; definitely not for the faint-of-heart. It was not what we expected as we hoped to see Hawaiian countryside that we couldn't see from a tour bus. What we saw were a lot of trees and hills and horses. We held on for dear life as the tour guide drove at high speed around curves and up and down hills. The campfire dinner was very good, but it was difficult to enjoy it because the wind was so strong and chilly. Some people might really appreciate this adventure, but it was not for us.
Our drivers were fantastic! We learned a ton about the land and enjoyed the picnic lunch near the end. Beautiful views again, the two girls that toured us around very fun and tailored the experience to the vehicle. We had adults in one and children in the other. By far our favorite activity during our stay in Oahu.
The sunset cruise was definitely top 3 things I have done in Hawaii and will for sure do it again!!! Staff was super friendly, food and drinks were great!!
It was truly amazing jurassic park atv raptor tour during rainstorm, weather made it extra crazy and fun!! would highly recommended and have to come back do it not in the rain!!!
Nice rainforest hike to a beautiful waterfall. Friendly and experienced guide and a well organized operation. We had a great time.
Hi!
The tour was beautiful! I’d say my favorite part was the Farm tour. They showed us some beautiful nature moments and we got to taste some of the food. The Jungle keep expedition would’ve been my favorite part however the portion where they visit the bunker was quite unsophisticated and it really cheapened the experience for me. It was extremely dated and looks like it hasn’t been changed in a decade or two. There we’re some portions we’re it looked like an artists graffitied some movie art to make a section exciting but in my opinion it looked unprofessional and naive.
The charm of the ranch is the beautiful moments in nature and the warm stuff. All the staff were so sweet and caring! However, if your going for the movie portions, it’s not really as sophisticated as you’d hope. For example the skull mountain bones have been taken apart by visitors of past and don’t look as good as they did in the films.
Overall I really enjoyed myself and would recommend all to visit! I just wish there movie portions we’re more sophisticated and were updated with technology of this decade.
We enjoyed our visit to the Bishop Museum. The Hawaii Hall has so much information about the culture, from people to plant use to gods. We also used the QR codes to access additional information about the exhibits and found this information very helpful.
We had a group of 7 for this tour and it was perfect to see the highlights of the island, outside of Honolulu. Stephanie was a fantastic tour guide and driver!! She gave a lot of info and local insight on hang outs, fun facts, etc. I would definitely recommend this tour for anyone that wants to see more of what the island has to offer! I have so many pictures and was able to buy some of the unique foods and items Hawaii has to offer as well.
Hello Jamie,
Thank you for spending your time for a review. We are glad you had a great time with Stephanie. I will let her know of the fabulous review you gave her. I believe she will be very happy to hear. We hope you and the rest of your group have a great time in Hawaii.

The ranch is huge and the grounds are nice. The tour guide was very knowledgeable and helpful. I was apprehensive at first, been awhile since I had been on a horse..lol. The staff are very helpful! Definitely an activity you must do!!! You won’t be disappointed!
From the moment you step on the pier the staff of Spirit of Aloha was upbeat and fun! We felt welcome and safe but new we were in for a good time. The drinks were simple but tasty and they didn't skimp. The food that was included could have been a little better, simple chicken breast sandwiches on rolls but you're there for a boat ride and booze! Checking in could have also been a little more organized. Overall I definitely recommend this outing on anyone's visit to the island!
A few of the families had a hard time managing their kids so one suggestion I might give to Spirit of Aloha Waikiki Sunset Cruise is hosting at least one adults only, 21+ cruise.
This was a surreal experience! Toured the whole island of Oahu and saw so many sites I didn't even know about when I first researched the island. I was very impressed as was the whole family!
I was so impressed with the scenic views!! The different locations to snap photos as well as the time given to take absolutely breathtaking photos was amazing!! This was an absolute hidden treasure!! The time the tour guide took to show you how to use your camera and what views would look perfect was great! I loved ever second of this tour!
I went on my actual birthday and it was theeeee best birthday present I could’ve ever given to myself! The breath of life show was amazing!!! The buffet was delicious!!! The learning of everything was soooo beneficial and the overall experience was very knowledgeable and fun!! Loved it!
I highly recommend this activity to anyone who visit Oahu!! This ATV activity brought so much fun into our vacation. I thought 2hrs of activity would be a lot and tired but it wasn't at all. Actually It was enjoyable exciting and informing experience, and honestly 2 hrs went so fast. My guides were K and Corine(If I spelled right). They were super fun and nice. I loved to hear all the history and myth related to the site.I learned a lot from this ATV activity. You will see well preserved mother nature. I felt overwhelmed by the great scenary of our nature. Me and My husband would choose 3hrs ATV if they had the option. Anyways, recommend this SUPER FUN activity!!! Best activity top1 for a reason.
Our tour guide Kimokeo Ca on 12/04/21, 7:45am-5:45pm
* Knowledgeable, friendly, energetic and also humorous guy
* My family of 3 have a wonderful time and learn all the details about culture & facts around the Oahu island.
* He manure the vehicle comfortably and safe.
But sadly, in the end, he failed to mentioned to us and stop the Hyatt Regency Waikiki Hotel where we stayed in. I have to personally go to the front asking and tell him to STOP, but it already pass a few hundred yard from the original pickup location. I am kind of reluctant to give him the gratuity in the first place but since he has been very good the whole day, so I pass it to you anyway.
This was my 2nd time on Captain Bobs snorkel and sandbar tour. I will be back to Hawaii in May and will be booking my 3rd trip with this amazing crew`. This trip was a bit cool with rain (December which we kind of expected ) but how can we have beauty without rain?? The lunch is wonderful. You can not find a better crew and trip. Do yourself a favor and book Caption Bob’s sandbar and snorkel tour. You will not be disappointed…unless you are a Karen. Hahah
The property was beautiful the guides were amazing. The info provided on the tour was great. I enjoyed learning about the culture along with the different films taking place in the area. I wish they would’ve went all the way camp with the Jurassic theme.
I’m sure there are copyright issues that they can’t. But go all in, embrace the dinosaurs that lead people to you.
Dallas, Jamie, and Bailey were amazing tour guides! They were super nice and helpful and patient with all of us! They had great information during the tour like the kinds of plants grown on the farm we zipped over and background on the history of Oahu! Unfortunately because of very bad rain we had to skip line 6 which I heard was the best one for safety reasons! I would definitely go again if I’m in Oahu!
The two ladies are so nice, professional, helpful and patient. The captain very patiently led my daughter to the reef to see turtles and fishes. After the tour, we found out that our rental car was dead at the harbor. The ladies and two other guys offered help, while we were calling the rental office. They checked and jump started the car. We managed to drive back to the car rental office for replacement. Otherwise, we would wait for toll service for at least 2 hours. We offered additional tips but they refused. Very touched. They are the best!!
Aloha, thank you so much for your kind words. I'm glad you've made it back safely to your hotel. On behalf of Capt. Bruce, we thank you so much for your feedback and support! We look forward to seeing you again in the near future.
The sandbar wasn’t exposed that day so we opted to snorkel at the different reefs and I’m so glad we decided to do that. The reefs are beautiful and there are a lot of fish to see. We saw several turtles too. The staff are very friendly. You can still use your phone data out at the reefs which made it a lot easier to find them on Google maps. I highly recommend this excursion
Aloha Lin! Thank you so much for joining us for a kayak and snorkel adventure! And thank you for taking the time to leave such an awesome review for us. We really appreciate this wonderful feedback. I am glad to hear you had such a good experience and we hope to see you again soon! Mahalo!
