One Ocean Diving Hawaii Shark Dive on Oahu & Snorkel Tour Experience
Amazing & above expectations!
Activity Date: 2021/09/07 | Posted on: 2021/09/09

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.

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.

Captain Bob's Kaneohe Sandbar Snorkeling Tour & BBQ Lunch with Waikiki Pickup
Great experience all around - even with COVID-restrictions
Activity Date: 2021/09/03 | Posted on: 2021/09/07

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.

Only 10 mins to get to the cage then we spent such a good amount of time in the cage. Do it!!!

Star of Honolulu Sunset Dinner Cruise – 5-Course Steak & Lobster Menu, Polynesian Show & Live Music
Fun time!
Activity Date: 2021/09/04 | Posted on: 2021/09/06

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!

2-Hour Jurassic Valley Kualoa Ranch ATV Raptor Adventure Tour - Most Popular!
Great time! TONS OF DUST/DIRT.
Activity Date: 2021/09/02 | Posted on: 2021/09/05

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).

Was a bit more casual than expected, but great fun!
Activity Date: 2021/09/04 | Posted on: 2021/09/05

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!

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 Kaneohe Sandbar Tour with Snorkel, SUP & Waikiki Transportation
Best vacation activity I did during my vacation
Activity Date: 2021/09/02 | Posted on: 2021/09/05

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.

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 !

Oahu Waterfall Hiking Tour with Expert Guide - Manoa Valley & Koolau Trails
Worth the steps
Activity Date: 2021/08/13 | Posted on: 2021/09/04

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.

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!

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!!!
