Doing things during COVID-19 can be a real pain in the butt, but the organizers for Chief’s Luau made it very easy. This show is awesome! The Chief is so funny & warm, & you can tell he’s a good guy. The food was delicious, but I wish that some things were a little warmer, like the noodles & the sweet potato bread. I recommend going through the customization line, since you can just tell them you don’t want the fish or the chicken or whatever. The show was fun & entertaining & I think it’s worth every dollar I paid! I would totally see it again.

Had a wonderful day at Jurassic Valley. Tour lady was outstanding. It was good day to spent with family and friends. It was little dusty so make sure to put on mask for almost 2 hours trip.

This place was beyond anything I’ve ever seen. It had gorgeous views and funny tour guides. They took so many awesome pictures of us. Isaac was the best. I would highly recommend this to anyone coming to Hawaii. There’s all kinds of things todo there too. Horseback riding. Bike tours. ATVS. Zip lining. Plus a fun gift shop. We loved everything about it and I would 100% return. It just might be the highlight of our honeymoon. We loved every second.

My wife and I had a great time! The crew was super helpful and friendly. They were great about getting the correct gear, pointing out interesting items - including the 5 turtles we saw that day.
Captain Ryan and his first mate were awesome, and we will definitely go again and can absolutely recommend this experience to others.

We had the best time on the Captain Bob snorkel tour. The sand bar they took us to was awesome to just hang out and get acclimatted to everything. The food was good and the actual snorkel location was pretty great. All the equipment was sanitized and if you wanted you could use your own stuff or buy a set from them.

This was so much fun & I would totally do it again! Our tour guide was Ashley & she is a Hawaii native, so she’s very knowledgeable about the legends & she is super cool! The terrain can be kind of scary, but it’s doable. I recommend wearing eye glasses & keeping your mask on for sure, b/c it gets very dusty.

The hotel pickup was very kind and friendly, and the explanations before the flight were easy to understand. The pilot, Goro, who provided various explanations next to me, was also very approachable, and during the flight, he explained the piloting in a very understandable way. Furthermore, this day was my 60th birthday, and with good weather and no wind, it became the best experience.
ホテルのお迎えからとても親切、フレンドリーで、フライト前の説明もよくわかりました。横でいろいろ説明いただいたパイロットのGOROさんもとても気さくな方で、フライト中は操縦についてとても分かりやすく説明いただきまじた。さらにこの日は小生の60歳の誕生日で、天気よく、風もなく、最高の経験となりました。

So happy we chose Captain Bob’s sandbar and snorkel Tour … the crew, the views, the experience… it was all AMAZING!! The crew was very attentive and when we went out to snorkel, the water was a little choppy, they made sure to come over and help anyone that looked like they needed even a little bit of help! The water volleyball at the sandbar was also super fun!!

We were a little disappointed at first. We thought it was single ATV’s but we ended up with 4 in a jeep. Apparently even when you book 2 drivers and 2 riders it is per family. After the initial disappointment, the ride was pretty fun. The views were stunning.

Amazing experience with these spectacular creatures that don't get the credit they deserve. This tour was definitely an eye opener and will give participants a far better and more educated perspective about not only the shark population but several others as well. Thank you IslandView Inc and the 3 guides who made the experience far more sensational than I suppose I was expecting.
The lead guys name was Sam but unfortunately, I don't recall the other two who were out in the water with us and taking photos. They absolutely made this adventure outstanding for us all!! You guys are awesome. I'll be back!!!

Do the sunset cruise. You won't regret it. The views of Waikiki, Diamond Head and the ocean are just incredible. The view is fun, the music is great, and the drinks are fantastic. Must try their signature drink, the Holokai Hooch. If I went back for another week in Waikiki I'm not kidding when I say I would do this more than once.

The crew of the Mana Kai were fantastic. We went on the sunset cruise and had some of the best times of our whole trip talking with the crew and other passengers. The ride out from shore was quite the adventure. Make sure you are ready to get splashed if there are any waves. But no worries, it is all part of the experience.
This BYOB trip on a smaller boat is much better than being on a big booze cruise packed with people. There are a lot boats out there so you have a lot of choices. This one was perfect for us. We had a good time, the other passengers had a good time and the crew had a good time all while enjoying great views of Diamond Head and a beautiful sunset. What more could you ask for on a short cruise.

We booked this one instead of the self kayaking to the Sandbar, and it was definitely worth it. If you want the relaxing and chill experience, and have fun, book this one. Our captain/crew was super nice and great. They take you to the sandbar, which is super beautiful, and you hangout there for about 1-2 hours, they provide you with boards and water equipments so you don't have to bring your own. The snorkeling was pretty cool too, didn't see any turtles though but still beautiful and great experience.
Aloha Gary! Thank you so much for taking the time to write this wonderful review. Your feedback is greatly appreciated and we look forward to seeing you again. Mahalo!

We had a party of 6, 2 adults, 14yo, 10 yo, 7yo, and 5 yo. We took 3 tandem kayaks. Wish we could have done 2 since the younger 2 were basically extra weight! The guide did not show good snorkeling so the tedious paddle to the sand bar was not exciting for the family.

The crew was friendly and talkative. We had never been snorkeling and they made it easy and comfortable. The area where we went there are multiple boats and people, that is not a poor reflection on this tour, but we didn't realize so many people would be in the same place. We did see turtles!! and fish and the reef. They take little time going back so you can get pictures with the view.
