This cruise was the best attraction since a luau was not available. The singing, the food and entertainment was great. I would do this cruise again in a hear beat.

We enjoy this tour each time we take it. We brought our mom and wanted her to experience the sites of the island. Chelsie was very knowledgeable with details about the different stops, as well as along the route. I would recommend this tour to anyone with plans on visiting Oahu.

When I first brought up the idea of skydiving to my group they initially didn’t like it but I convinced all of them to do it. Our groups of 5 had such an amazing time with all the people included it was an amazing first dive,.
I WOULD DEFINITELY RECOMMEND GETTING CAMERAMAN FOR PHOTOS AND VIDEOS THEY ARE AMAZING.
10/10 felt safe the whole time and had fun in general

Oahu Two Tank SCUBA Diving Boat Tour for Beginner Divers - Waikiki Dive Center
Nice people, but prepare for motion sickness
Activity Date: 2021/07/21 | Posted on: 2021/08/03

I really liked all the staff members there. They were very kind, nice, and try best for you. However, the equipment they use such as car or boat is very old and small, which made me have a severe motion sickness and I could not do scuba diving at all. Total activity lasts about 4 hours but you actually scuba dive for less than 45 mins in total (there were two dives) I think. You wait like an hour at the shop them preparing, take their van to go to harbor, wait for them to get ready at the boat.. I expected all the preparation should be already ready for us, but wasn't, which was fine I guess. Anyway, I personally wouldn't do it again, but my husband enjoyed and saw cool stuff, and seemed like other people also enjoyed.

Kaneohe Bay Kayak & Snorkel Self-Guided Tour [Tour Not Available]
could have been better
Activity Date: 2021/07/23 | Posted on: 2021/08/03

when we went to check-in, they told us to wait for 2 hours because it's too windy. Our check-in time was at 8am and we had to wait until 10:30am. I would absolutely not recommend going in the morning because this side of island is very windy, rainy, and weather cannot be expected at all. Weather app tells you it won't rain but it spontaneously rains, especially in the morning. Also, water doesn't get high enough to kayak or snorkel in the morning often because of this. I don't even understand why they even have morning session to book tho. They totally could've sent us an email in the morning before we arrive, so that we don't have to wait there doing nothing for 2 hours, which was very unfortunate. Anyway, we waited and did kayaking and self-snorkeling, which I also hoped there was an instructor leading the kayaking or snorkeling but wasn't. everything was verbally told and self-learning. (kayak rental staff/instructor was extremely kind, I really liked him. nothing was his fault, it was just more the system how they work was not the best.) They did not recommend to go to sandbar, in fact they say going to sandbar is advanced and do not recommend for first time kayaking people. Then why do they even have it on their activity title? you expect fun kayaking to kaneohe sandbar and beautiful snorkeling, but in reality, we did not get to go to kaneohe sandbar, only coral reefs. overall, I don't regret doing this activity, just wish it was better. Also, 4 hour renting is way enough. we only did about an hour and half and was able to go both reefs and snorkel there. Giving 4 stars only because we went there for our honeymoon activity and it was fun between two of us no matter what, but if not, I wouldn't be much happy and fun with it tho.

Captain Bruce Kaneohe Sandbar Tour with Snorkel, SUP & Waikiki Transportation
Worth the time & money!
Activity Date: 2021/07/16 | Posted on: 2021/08/02

We took the morning tour and we got a lot of time to snorkel and hung out with 3 sea turtles (with a safe distance away of course!). I appreciate how our local staff emphasized the importance of keeping safe the reef & the animals who call the ocean home. We got access to paddle boards and delicious coffee! Thanks again for a great time!

We enjoyed the Na Hoku II Catamaran Waikiki Booze Cruise along with friends and family (including two young nephews)! Truly, this 1 - hour sailing is a great way to experience the Waikiki coast. The crew provided great service both sailing and serving up drinks. I would definitely pick Na Hoku II Catamaran Waikiki Booze Cruise for a future cruise.

We had so much fun on the Spirit of Aloha Waikiki Sunset Cruise with Cocktails! The crew offered great service along with upbeat music and a great vibe. Our sailing occurred on a bit of a rainy afternoon, however the captain did a great job navigating us away from the rain. We enjoyed a beautiful sunset with enjoying cocktails and food. I couldn't recommend Spirit of Aloha Waikiki Sunset Cruise with Cocktails more!

Kualoa Ranch Jurassic Jungle Expedition Tour & Off-Road Adventure [90-minutes]
Jungle Jeep Tour
Activity Date: 2021/07/10 | Posted on: 2021/08/01

This review is based on service, quality, abd cleanliness:

Service: the staff were super nice and knowledgeable. They showed real interest in thwir jobs, always asked to help with taking pictures.

Quality: tour quality was top notch. We got to do a nice little hike, saw different movie sets, and had lots of time to take pictures. It was a bumpy ride but fun

Cleanliness: restrooms are very clean. They were the big portable ones that get parked. In California one of those would be the most disgusting thing, you would rather hold it in. But here it was so clean and everything was well kept.

Overall: highly recommend this tour. I would suggest getting the all around tour though if you have the time

Stephanie was amazing! Awesome energy, full of facts, the ranch is absolutely stunning and amazing. The location is phenomenal and the scenery is like a postcard photo, at every angle. Please be advised, this is NOT like the ATV tour. I thought we'd get out at more stops, but we didn't. None the less, it was fun and worth the money!

The only disappointment it was only available for the 1 hour tour! We look forward to coming back and booking way in advance to get a couple of tours in like we’ve done in the past. Thank you again for the great opportunity to enjoy Kualoa Ranch with my family.

Polynesian Cultural Center Admission Ticket with 6 Island Villages & Canoe Ride
A must see while in Oahu!!!
Activity Date: 2021/07/22 | Posted on: 2021/07/31

We had a great time at the Polynesian Cultural Center at all the villages. Having never been there, on the first day, we were not watching the time and when we realized the villages all closed at 5:30.. I think its wonderful to allow the guests to use the tickets for up to three days since the first day. This gave us the opportunity to return and enter the rest of the villages that we didn't have time to see on the first day. We were bummed that the luau, buffet and show were all sold out on both days.

Polynesian Cultural Center Admission Ticket with 6 Island Villages & Canoe Ride
Worth every second there!
Activity Date: 2021/07/05 | Posted on: 2021/07/31

What a fantastic way to learn about the various Polynesian cultures in and around Hawaii. Everyone was friendly. The different areas had different shows to share their culture. Most of the employees are college students from the different Polynesian areas and families. Due to Covid restrictions and timing, we were not able to attend a luau. When we return to Hawaii we will go here again (it is hard to fit it all in, in a day) and also do the luau. This was the best money we spent on the island. I'd give it 10 stars if I could! We prepurchased entry with the Veltra passes and it worked great. Moved right to the front of the line and no worries about getting in.

AMAZING TRIP!! Definitely worth it!!
Activity Date: 2021/07/09 | Posted on: 2021/07/31

We took the free transportation that was offered, which was great.

Got to the boat and quickly got out in the bay. We had TONS of time at the sand bar. I recommend bringing a floatie or ball of ton want. We joined in with the volleyball they brought which was so fun! We stayed there during lunch so when we were done eating we went back out.

Saw more sea turtles than I can count! Even saw some on the sand bar.

Snorkeling we had plenty of time and all equipment was provided.

Definitely one of the best excursions we did while there. We definitely do it again!
