Oahu
This experience was AMAZING! At peak, I counted 12 sharks swimming around & below us. A few of the large ones came level with us to check us out! It was intimidating & inspiring! Plus, there just happened to be a large barracuda where we anchored who seemed as curious by us as we were of the sharks!
I'll admit that I was intimidated at the thought of being cageless. When I saw the barracuda at the nose of the ship I was all the more intimidated. But, this was why I did cage-free, i wanted to stomp this fear/intimidation.
We were in the water for a long time (I think 30 to 40min). At around 20min I decided to let go of the ship & just swim around a bit with the sharks & the barracuda! I cannot describe the full experience. It was amazing being in a "foreign land" (the ocean) with these incredible creatures!
I got my money's worth & more and I absolutely will do another cage-free dive next time I visit! I've found a new love with this experience!
Also, the three employees who led our escapade were great, interactive, & friendly.
I highly recommend people bring a go-pro & selfie stick. Also, let go of the boat, even if briefly.
We had a fantastic day with Capt. Bob's crew. The boat was clean and well kept and it wasn't crowded. The staff was great in taking care of us and feeding us. All around a great trip. Will definitely book with them again.
It was a wonderful experience with the help of three sailors. We would gladly do this again and cannot wait to come back to Hawaii eventually.
This sunset cruise was super fun. The crew was very laid back and provided a very relaxed environment for the group to unwind on a beautiful evening in Waikiki. We sailed all the way down the beach and had amazing views of the city and Diamond Head.
This was an amazing experience!! The ranch itself is beautiful on top of driving UTVs around the 4500 acres surrounding, this is a must !!! Also the tour guides are really funny & make it even better
We really enjoyed the Maitai Catamaran Sunset Sail. Everyone was very friendly, and it was such an enjoyable experience. The sunset was gorgeous, as were the rest of the views. Would definitely recommend! Cant wait to be back and attend another sunset sail.
We did a quick Hawaii trip from Dallas over the Labor Day weekend 2021 and only had 4 days, so our time for excursions was limited, however we are so glad we decided to do Captain Bob's Kanehoe Sandbar excursion.
The crew was super friendly and helpful, the boat ride was fun, with beautiful views throughout and the sandbar was an absolute highlight. The burgers & beer were good. During the snorkeling part we got lucky and see not only a ton of turtles (one swam right underneath us while we were snorkeling), but also a group of manta rays and of course tons of colorful fish.
Money very well spent for the value and experience received. If I could change anything at all, I would maybe spend a little more time at the sandbar itself and less time snorkeling, but that's just a personal preference - again, the tour was great. It could also be fun to offer this experience on certain days for adults only.
We flew from the UK for this. It was so easy and fun!
Make sure to book - you will not be scared. It was safe and the staff were so nice. Life changing!
Only 10 mins to get to the cage then we spent such a good amount of time in the cage. Do it!!!
We had a great time on this two hour cruise. Food portions weren’t huge but we’re delicious! Enjoyed the show and the music throughout. The package came with 2 drinks per person, and extra drinks were available for purchase. My only complaint would be the bus transportation - for some reason, our trip to the boat took forever…I think we were waiting on passengers that weren’t at the pick up spot, so this somewhat delayed our arrival. Otherwise-great time!
We had the best time! Would highly recommend this catamaran
Highly recommend! The entire boat crew was great and were on time! This is my second time doing the boat happy hour and it doesn’t disappoint!
The people were so friendly and funny and made the whole day amazing! 10/10
My friends and I had the greatest and relaxing time! The crew was very friendly and had such great energy! Highly recommended!!!!
The guide was very informative. Seeing the memorial was very educational and the guide gave us nice places to go as well.
ATVs ARE NOT A THING ANYMORE. Learned it when we got there, was still a great experience!
LOTS OF DUST, you will be filthy when you finish!
Driving through the ranch property was peaceful and fun, definitely got to enjoy seeing all the sights they had to offer. Tons of movies were filmed there and seeing the props come up were so cool (Jurassic Park and King Kong were the best ones).
Would recommend for friends, families, or even a date (not the first few though).
At first I expected a fancy-ish boat (like a cruise-type of thing), was caught off guard when it was a boat which was fully open on the sand (it's a barefoot cruise!). I do realize it says sail now.
The open bar was great as well as the views. Wonderful sunset observed with great time for pictures.
They were not lying when they said the mai tais (delicious btw) would sneak up on you!
Booked this tour for my parents to enjoy a sightseeing experience of the beautiful island. They had a thrill and thoroughly enjoyed the experience. No complaints!
It was out first time at a Luau & we had a wonderful time. It was such a great experience, the food was amazing & everyone was so friendly. We weren’t sure about it being at a water park but once you’re seated, you would never know it was a theme park. Definitely recommend!
I never write reviews, but figure I would with this because of how good the experience was. The driver was on time, communicative, helpful, and courteous. He even got out of the van to find me during the departure. And with that said, the van was clean and spacious. I'd definitely roll with this company again. Mahalo for a great experience!
Captain Bruce’s turtle snorkel tour was the best activity I’ve ever done in O’ahu. They were also really nice and fun! The sandbar was awesome and I saw turtles, fish, coral , and other marine life. They provided refreshments and light snacks like chips, fruit. I would do this again. And please wear reef safe sunscreen to help protect the coral and ocean animals.
Thank you very much! It's so kind of you. We look forward to seeing you again. Mahalo!
Such a fun experience and with an awesome crew it was definitely a high light of the vacay.
Loved the tour guide Kualoa Iven he was awesome and we also loved the tour
We had a really good time! The only reason I put good and not outstanding is because the lunch wasn’t good.
But the view of the water we had from the boat was beyond beautiful, the snorkeling part was great, we were able to see a lot of fish. Team very friendly !
Amazing time! I loved being on the boat and just swimming around even tho there weren't many turtles to see. We saw a lot of fish tho! Would def do it again.
Great tour guide unfortunately I can’t remember the gentleman name now. He is 3rd generation native very knowledgeable of the island. It definitely was a educational and beautiful time. I’m out of shape 51 years women & huffing and puffing but I made it all the way to the waterfall. I guess you could say I earned my photo shot! It is breathtaking the beauty of the whole path and so much green that surrounds you it’s definitely worth it. I just discovered Veltra and I plan to us them again, great service great price & great program.
Mahalo for your review! Your guide's name is Terii. Thanks for joining us and sharing your experience with others. Aloha
Had a great time cruising around waikiki. Views from the catamaran were amazing.
This was so much fun. The scenery was beautiful and we danced to great music. It'd bring your own beverages...remember.
Not worth it !
The boat ride was very rough, we barely had 15 minutes in the water. The water was really blur and we saw almost nothing.
Unfortunately the drink were not good as well, the mai tai was only ice and juice … not recommended!
Had a fabulous time with my group of friends! We're all in our 30s and thought this was one of the highlights of our Hawaii trip. The Mai tais were delicious but they also offer beer and white claw as well and it's AYCD. Staff was super friendly, felt very safe on the catamaran, and the views of the water and the sunset were absolutely breathtaking. Highly recommend!!!
Enjoyed the zipline tour. The lines and the final race were really fun. The guides were fun and helped make the experience easy.
