Haleiwa Shark Tours - Best Shark Cage Diving in Hawaii with Local Expert Guides
Awesome experience!
Activity Date: 2022/04/08 | Posted on: 2022/04/10

Our guides were friendly and provided great information about the sharks local to the area. Totally recommend taking Dramamine the night before and the day of the dive as the water was a little choppy. We got to see about a dozen Galapagos sharks during our dive and even got to see a whale.

Aloha !
What an amazing adventure aboard the Majestic by Atlantis Cruises. We’re happy to hear you enjoyed exploring a part of Oahu that most people don’t get to see and are excited you saw some astonishing marine life! That is truly a lifetime experience only few can witness. We're also happy to hear the staff was informative and nice. Thank you for sharing your experience with us and taking part in the Aloha spirit. We hope to have the pleasure of welcoming you back in the future aboard one of our submarines and/or the Majestic by Atlantis Cruises for another Atlantis adventure; an underwater journey, sunset cruise, or seasonal whale watch cruise. Feel free to follow us on social media at #atlantishawaii. A hui hou (until next time).

The Kualoa Ranch Movie tour was so much fun! Our tour guide shared many bits of knowledge about the ranch and the island, and “The Rock” and his family were even on the ranch when we were there( unfortunately we didn’t run into him) we can’t wait to book another tour.

Activity Date: 2022/03/20 | Posted on: 2022/04/09

I had been hesitant about going to the pool even after coming to Hawaii, but thanks to my daughter's strong desire, we finally went! I regret not coming sooner... We played and laughed like children, getting completely soaked! It was a bit disappointing that the closing time was early due to COVID-19. We were in line for the slide, and just as it was our turn and I was getting ready to jump in, they stopped us and started locking it up. It was a moment that made me think, "Ah, this is America."

ハワイに来てまでプール???と思い ずっと敬遠してましたが、娘たっての希望によりいざ!!
なんでこれまで、来なかったのか、、、後悔後悔。
童心にかえって大笑いしながらビショビショ遊びました!!
コロナ禍の為か閉園時間が早くてちょっと残念な事が、、、。スライダー並んでました。私達の番になった!と着水準備したところ ストップと、、、鎖をかけ始めました^^; あ、、アメリカだなっ。て思った瞬間でした。

Amazing Experience. Paid for transportation pickup from the hotel- very convenient. The deck views of the city were breath- taking. You didn't feel the boat moving. My family was seated at the table in front of the stage- could not have Asked for better seats for the fun historical entertainment! The crowd was engaged the entire time. The table was set up beautifully. Wine for toasting was kid friendly. The Deluxe 3 star course meal was awesome. The servers were very nice and prompt. My family had a great time on this cruise. Do recommend!

アトランティス潜水艦ツアー ハワイの海底30mを進む海中アドベンチャー <ヒルトン・ハワイアン・ビレッジ発/日本語ナレーション(要事前ダウンロード)>
World of the Blue Sea
青い海の世界
Activity Date: 2022/04/06 | Posted on: 2022/04/08

I participated in the 9 AM departure. At the check-in counter, I was welcomed in Japanese. Everything else was in English. In the photos of the submarine on the website, there were audio guide earphones provided, but there were no headphones, possibly due to infection control measures. Even though I didn't understand English, I was glad to have met the sea turtles and fish. The view from the submarine was a world of blue sea, and I couldn't distinguish the colors of the fish well, except for yellow.

As a measure against infections, all passengers were required to wear masks. For those who didn't have masks, there were supplies available. The crew sanitized the submarine windows with alcohol during the exchanges.

The weather was nice, and there weren't many waves, so it was good that there was little rocking. The view from the boat before boarding the submarine was also lovely.

朝9時出発に参加しました。チェックインカウンターでは日本語で歓迎してくれました。それ以外は英語でした。サイト内の潜水艦の写真では、音声ガイドのイヤホンが置かれていましたが、感染症対策の為かヘッドホンはついていませんでした。英語はわからなくても、ウミガメやお魚たちに会えたので、行って良かったと思いました。潜水艦からの眺めは青い海の世界で、魚は黄色以外は色の違いがよくわかりませんでした。
感染症対策として、乗船者は全員マスク着用です。マスクを持っていない人には、用意された物がありました。潜水艦の窓は、入れ替えの時にクルーの方がアルコール消毒をしていました。
天気もよく波もあまりない日でしたので、揺れも少なくてよかったです。潜水艦に乗る前の船からの眺めも素敵でした。

Activity Date: 2022/04/06 | Posted on: 2022/04/08

I had the best memories surfing at the popular beach in Waikiki while looking at Diamond Head. The lecture was easy to understand as they made an effort to use Japanese. They also took photos during the surfing session. However, it was a bit disappointing that it cost $50.

ワイキキの人気でにぎわってるビーチでダイヤモンドヘッドを見ながらサーフィンができて最高の思い出になりました。
レクチャーも日本語を頑張って使っていただきわかりやすかったです。
サーフィン最中の写真撮影もしていただけました。
ただ50ドルかかってしまうのが残念でした。

Thank you for the 5-star rating and your comments. We're glad to hear you enjoyed your experience. Regarding the photos, our company does not provide photography services; we work with another company called Beach Boy Photography. Underwater photography and videography require significant skill, and due to staff hiring and insurance, we believe the minimum price of $50 is unavoidable. Please understand that this is offered as an additional service, not as a requirement. We look forward to your next visit. Mahalo!

5つ星のレイティング、そしてコメント、有難うございます。楽しんで頂けて何よりです。さて、写真の件ですが、弊社では写真のサービスはしておらず、ビーチボーイフォトグラフィーという他の会社に依頼して行っております。水中でとる写真・動画はかなりスキルを必要とするもので、スタッフ雇用、そして保険などを含めておりますので最低$50のお値段は避けられないのだと思います。ですので強制でなく、追加のサービスとして提供しています事をご理解ください。またのお越しをお待ちしております。マハロ!

We purchased the Royal package and it was worth the extra $. We were the first to go up to dinner and front row seating.

The show was funny and entertaining! The Chief put in a lot of funny jokes and taught the audience some Hawaiian words and phrases. Food was great, with roasted pork as the centerpiece with lots of authentic-tasting foods.

Would definitely do it again!

We had an amazing time and will be back on any future trip. We saw about a million fish and two turtles. I accidentally dumped everything out of the kayak and the dry bag kept everything perfectly dry. Snorkeling and kayaking here was one of the absolute highlights of our trip.

Aloha, Diana! Mahalo for your generous 5 star rating! Glad that you have mentioned that you caught 6 waves. It is a benefit of "Canoe Charter" for one-hour instead of signing up for "Canoe Surfing" which guarantees 3 waves and it may take anywhere from 15 minutes to 30 minutes, depending on the condition. We strongly recommend that all guests would sign up for the "Charter" as you did. Thank you again!

This trip was awesome! We are a family of 4 (kids age 5 and 11) and everyone LOVED our time on the boat. The crew was amazing - very informative and helpful. They looked out for everyone’s safety but also made sure folks were having fun. Food was good and they had adult beverages for purchase. Very kid friendly - had child-sized snorkel gear and life jackets. The boat was very clean. Not to mention the beautiful landscape as your backdrop for swimming/snorkeling/turtle-watching…pictures can’t adequately capture just how breathtaking it all was. We didn’t want it to end!

I would recommend anyone that travels to Hawaii to at least go to Jurassic valley and take the ATV tour of Jurassic Park. Not only is the staff very informative but the scenery is amazing.. there is a great history in these parks and the staff knows every single detail about the history.

This is the number one thing you should do when you get to Hawaii if you're looking for an adventure.
