Discover the Best of Oahu on a Full-Day Circle Island Guided Tour with Waimea Valley & Local Lunch

Kimo was the best tour guide!

Reviewed by: Nicole & Thomas

We hit the jackpot! Kimo was an excellent tour guide and was full of history and information. When we got to the different spots, he walked with us, telling us more. We saw other E Noa drivers sitting by their buses waiting for the people to come back. Kimo made the trip so much fun! Don’t be last on the bus or he’ll make you do a short hula while he plays his ukulele!

Not sure if you can request, but If you get Kimo, you’re going to get waaay more than your moneys worth!

Oh! And the local lunch spot was DELICIOUS! We wanted to get another and take it back to the hotel!

Our drivers truly are what make our tours so unforgettable! We are so glad to hear Kimo provided such a fun experience. Mahalo for the 5 stars! Next time you're in Hawaii we hope to see you again!

サンドバー天使の海 シュノーケリング&ウミガメウォッチクルーズ 船上のBBQグリルで焼くハンバーガーランチ付き!<午前/日本語クルー>

A wonderful experience where you can see sea turtles up close. 海ガメを近くで見れる素敵な体験

Reviewed by: レモン

After the end of COVID, there were only two groups of Japanese people, including us. The rest were from other countries.
Since there are Japanese staff, they kindly taught us everything and checked in on us.
They even took photos for us, which we really appreciated.
The sandbar had high transparency and was incredibly beautiful!!!
We saw several sea turtles from the boat!
During snorkeling, we were able to see two of them up close!
It was truly the best experience to see so many friendly staff and cute sea turtles.
The light meal hamburger was also delicious!
They had hand sanitizer available, which made us feel safe.

I definitely want to participate again, and it was a tour I would want to recommend to acquaintances!

We were so excited to visit Hawaii for the first time and I thought I was purchasing tickets for Pearl Harber but NO after spending $200.00 NOTHING. When speaking to them on the phone they stated we must ride their bus. With Covid 19 we didn’t want to take a chance on our health. We are now in a dispute with them to get our money back!

Chief's Luau - Polynesian Show & Dinner Buffet with Authentic Award-Winning Fire Knife Dancing

Great experience and definitely worth the money.

Reviewed by: Theo

There were quite a few Luau options to choose from. After some searching, we decided to give Chief's Luau a try. It's good that they have pickup options and we don't have to drive. The pickup, drop-off, and check-in were smooth.
It was a cloudy evening with some sprinkles, but we were prepared.
Food was all-you-can-eat style, with them serving you at the station. Food varieties was limited compared with Polynesian Culture Center, but the quality was good. They even gave us 2 drink tickets for each person. That's enough for the night.
The dancing and the fire knife show were very entertaining, and the jokes too.
All in all, a pleasant evening spent on the island of Oahu.

90-Min Aloha Happy Hour Sail with Drinks Included - Waikiki Beach Rainbow Catamaran

Mana Kai Catamaran Day Cruise/1 pm

Reviewed by: Alex Ramirez

Jenna & The Cruise Driver we’re extremely friendly, and made the experience for our family and the rest of the riders very fun and safe. They explained to us always what to expect. They let us experience the waters of the ocean by putting our feet in as we cruised in the sailboat and listened to music. The ambiance felt great and soothing. They also took us turtle watching and got to see some beautiful huge sea turtles. We also enjoyed the splash of the waves while we sat on the net of the sailboat, my boys enjoyed that so much and it kept them refreshed! And the best part is the dip in the water, so refreshing and wonderful experience for those who wanted to take a a quick dip. I’m so thankful to Jenna as she took good care of the group, while The cruise driver was always so detailed in explaining everything we would see and do. They both went above & beyond. Best experience ever!!! Mahalo!!!!!

Kaneohe Sandbar Tour with Snorkel, Kayak, SUP & Live Hawaiian Music - Kaneohe Bay Ocean Sports

Not what I expected

Reviewed by: Hannah

I actually did not really like this experience. We ate breakfast at 10am, just in time to be picked up at our hotel, which was really nice. We got there and right away we were told very rudely that we had to eat lunch as soon as we got in the boat or we were not getting anything to eat at all. For a trip that says that you are required to bring a motion sickness treatment for the boat ride, eating lunch on the way there really seamed unlikely. I would of thought that they would serve lunch and you can choose when you are ready to eat sometime after we arrived at the sandbar.
Second, I know this is out of their control, but the water was freezing and the area we could do activities was so limited. They had snorkeling and paddle boarding. There were no fish in sight and the water is like 3 feet deep. I would rather spend my time going and buying lunch and spend my afternoon at Waikiki beach then spend the money to do this activity, Not really a happy customer.

The dinner was good. Wished temp was hot on dishes, but presented beautifully. Server was a nice young lady, pleasant smile.

Kaneohe Sandbar Tour with Snorkel, Kayak, SUP & Live Hawaiian Music - Kaneohe Bay Ocean Sports

Worth every penny

Reviewed by: Ford Ohana

Far exceeded my expectations. Crew was great, attentive as well as the live music. The 3 hours flew by and we did not want to leave after a banana boat ride, snorkeling, volleyball and relaxing on the lounge. Ive been to Hawaii many times... this was one of my favorite things to do. The early trip (9am) is probably the better option because parking is very limited and you will have to park on the street and walk a bit to the pier. Also bring cash because there's no ATM in the market and you will want to leave a tip for the crew and band. A must do if you go to Hawaii!!!

Kaneohe Sandbar Tour with Snorkel, Kayak, SUP & Live Hawaiian Music - Kaneohe Bay Ocean Sports

My top recommendation for Oahu!

Reviewed by: Jacqueline

Such a fun time for young large groups! Came with a large group of 16 all in our 20’s. It felt like the live musicians were personalizing their song picks to us and interacted with us. There’s several activities to choose from. The lounger is great and looks so good for photos!! Tubing was so fun, and it seemed like the crew was having a good time as well. Definitely recommend the raft vs the banana boat for a more extreme time! I just wish we had more times to fully do all the activities, I wouldn’t have minded and extra 30 mins or 1hr. This activity would be fun for families, but since it’s BYOB I recommend it more for young groups. Can’t recommend this activity enough!!

ハワイでパラセーリング 高さ120m/150mの上空からワイキキとダイアモンドヘッドの絶景を鑑賞!<ヒルトン・ワイキキ>

The photo I bought as an option was completely dark, and it made me sad. オプションで買った写真が真っ暗で悲しかった

Reviewed by: ごまごま

I participated in parasailing for the first time on my honeymoon. As a keepsake, I decided to purchase additional photos for $40 after the activity. At that time, I was shown a few close-up photos taken before and after the flight, which were well-lit and clearly showed my face, so I decided to buy them. However, upon reviewing the purchased photos, I found that most of them were too dark and poorly taken. I believe the overcast sky and light rain contributed to this, but I wish they had made adjustments to the camera settings. Although I was disappointed with the photos for $40, the staff's service during the activity was good.

新婚旅行で初のパラセイリングに参加しました。記念にと思い、アクティビティ終了後に、写真を40ドルで追加購入しました。その際はアップで撮っていただいた飛ぶ前後の写真を数枚見せてもらい、それはフラッシュがたかれ顔がわかる写りで撮れていたので購入しましたが、購入後見てみると、殆どの写真の被写体が真っ暗で上手く撮れていませんでした。あいにくの曇り空で小雨が降っていたせいもあると思いますが、カメラの設定を調整するなど工夫をして欲しかったです。
40ドルもしたので写真は残念でしたが、アクティビティ中のスタッフの対応は良かったです。

Hawaii Jet Ski Ride Adventure at Maunalua Bay - H2O Sports

Not what I was expecting

Reviewed by: Jenna

I was expecting a 90-min ride for the price I paid and it was 30 min with a (scheduled) interruption 15 min through. I also thought the jet skis would go at least 40 mph based on my past experiences with renting jet skis and at full speed these only went to barely 25 mph. They make you ride in a large square around 4 buoys and you aren’t allowed to just roam around. The square gets too crowded and it isn’t that it feels unsafe, but it feels like you have to hyper focus on your speed and surroundings instead of just enjoying zooming around in the open water. Beyond that the service was decent, the building got way too crowded and it felt like they didn’t have the staff to handle the crowds but the guys on the boat and barge were really nice. I personally think that for the price I paid for just 30 min, I should have skipped this or looked for another place to rent from.
