Oahu
We learned so much about the island and the TV show.
We had a nice group.
Sean paid a lot of attention to safe Covid rules like a small group, vaccination record, face masks and temperature check. We really appreciated it.
The highlight was the McGarrett House with Shawn Garnett. Although he had not been fully recovered from a hospital stay he had spent time with us. Awesome guy <3
Best regards. See you next time.
This tour is very popular, so make your reservation early! I was planning to stay in Hawaii for two weeks, so I thought it would be fine to book after arriving, but it turned out that this was the only day available. I really wanted to go on this tour, so I was glad I could make it.
Since I planned to rent a car that day, I signed up without transportation and ended up starting with the next group after arriving a bit late. For two hours, we toured filming locations from LOST, Godzilla, King Kong, and Jurassic Park. You can see the ocean, but we didn't go to the beach.
The guide explained about Kualoa Ranch in a loud voice, so it was easy to hear. The horses were very well trained, so I felt safe riding them.
If you book on-site, it can be a bit cheaper, but considering the reservation situation, it's definitely necessary to book in advance.
It was a satisfying two hours. There are small souvenir shops and a restaurant on-site. They took photos at the beginning of the tour, and when we returned, I think they were available for purchase for about $20.
大変人気のツアーなので、お予約は早めに!
ハワイには2週間滞在する予定だったので、到着してからの予約でいいやと思っていたら、もうこの日しかないって現状でした。絶対に行きたいツアーだったのでよかったです。
レンタカーを借りる予定の日だったので、送迎なしで申し込み、少し遅れてしまい次のグループからスタートしました。2時間、LOST、ゴジラ、キングコングやジュラシックパークなどの撮影を巡っていきます。海は見えるだけでビーチは行きません。
ガイドは大きな声でクアロアランチの説明をしてくれるので、聞き取れます。馬はすごくトレーニングされていて安心して乗馬可能でした。
現地申し込みだともう少し安くできますが、予約状況など含めると絶対に事前予約必須です。
満足のいく2時間でした。
小さなお土産やさん、レストラン併設。ツアー最初に写真を撮ってくれて、最後戻ってきたら20ドルくらいだったかな購入可能
The activities were great and the crew was helpful and friendly. It was a great experience! the volleyball game before the snorkeling was fun and helped everyone get to know each other, and the snorkeling was terrific. Highly recommended!
This was the best experience my husband and I had on our honeymoon, and the only thing we have been able to think about since we got back'! This was absolutely worth every penny spent, and I would do it again in a heartbeat!
It was truly amazing jurassic park atv raptor tour during rainstorm, weather made it extra crazy and fun!! would highly recommended and have to come back do it not in the rain!!!
Nice rainforest hike to a beautiful waterfall. Friendly and experienced guide and a well organized operation. We had a great time.
Hi!
The tour was beautiful! I’d say my favorite part was the Farm tour. They showed us some beautiful nature moments and we got to taste some of the food. The Jungle keep expedition would’ve been my favorite part however the portion where they visit the bunker was quite unsophisticated and it really cheapened the experience for me. It was extremely dated and looks like it hasn’t been changed in a decade or two. There we’re some portions we’re it looked like an artists graffitied some movie art to make a section exciting but in my opinion it looked unprofessional and naive.
The charm of the ranch is the beautiful moments in nature and the warm stuff. All the staff were so sweet and caring! However, if your going for the movie portions, it’s not really as sophisticated as you’d hope. For example the skull mountain bones have been taken apart by visitors of past and don’t look as good as they did in the films.
Overall I really enjoyed myself and would recommend all to visit! I just wish there movie portions we’re more sophisticated and were updated with technology of this decade.
We enjoyed our visit to the Bishop Museum. The Hawaii Hall has so much information about the culture, from people to plant use to gods. We also used the QR codes to access additional information about the exhibits and found this information very helpful.
The ranch is huge and the grounds are nice. The tour guide was very knowledgeable and helpful. I was apprehensive at first, been awhile since I had been on a horse..lol. The staff are very helpful! Definitely an activity you must do!!! You won’t be disappointed!
I was so impressed with the scenic views!! The different locations to snap photos as well as the time given to take absolutely breathtaking photos was amazing!! This was an absolute hidden treasure!! The time the tour guide took to show you how to use your camera and what views would look perfect was great! I loved ever second of this tour!
I highly recommend this activity to anyone who visit Oahu!! This ATV activity brought so much fun into our vacation. I thought 2hrs of activity would be a lot and tired but it wasn't at all. Actually It was enjoyable exciting and informing experience, and honestly 2 hrs went so fast. My guides were K and Corine(If I spelled right). They were super fun and nice. I loved to hear all the history and myth related to the site.I learned a lot from this ATV activity. You will see well preserved mother nature. I felt overwhelmed by the great scenary of our nature. Me and My husband would choose 3hrs ATV if they had the option. Anyways, recommend this SUPER FUN activity!!! Best activity top1 for a reason.
This was my 2nd time on Captain Bobs snorkel and sandbar tour. I will be back to Hawaii in May and will be booking my 3rd trip with this amazing crew`. This trip was a bit cool with rain (December which we kind of expected ) but how can we have beauty without rain?? The lunch is wonderful. You can not find a better crew and trip. Do yourself a favor and book Caption Bob’s sandbar and snorkel tour. You will not be disappointed…unless you are a Karen. Hahah
The property was beautiful the guides were amazing. The info provided on the tour was great. I enjoyed learning about the culture along with the different films taking place in the area. I wish they would’ve went all the way camp with the Jurassic theme.
I’m sure there are copyright issues that they can’t. But go all in, embrace the dinosaurs that lead people to you.
Dallas, Jamie, and Bailey were amazing tour guides! They were super nice and helpful and patient with all of us! They had great information during the tour like the kinds of plants grown on the farm we zipped over and background on the history of Oahu! Unfortunately because of very bad rain we had to skip line 6 which I heard was the best one for safety reasons! I would definitely go again if I’m in Oahu!
Everyone involved in the parasailing was super personable and engaging! Noemi and Rachel at the shack were super nice and relatable during check in and for the pictures! Diego and the captain made sure we were all good before and after the excursion! We were normally supposed to go up to 1000’ but because a few customers did not show up the captain let us go to the max height of 1200’!! Super cool! Would definitely go again!
The sandbar wasn’t exposed that day so we opted to snorkel at the different reefs and I’m so glad we decided to do that. The reefs are beautiful and there are a lot of fish to see. We saw several turtles too. The staff are very friendly. You can still use your phone data out at the reefs which made it a lot easier to find them on Google maps. I highly recommend this excursion
Aloha Lin! Thank you so much for joining us for a kayak and snorkel adventure! And thank you for taking the time to leave such an awesome review for us. We really appreciate this wonderful feedback. I am glad to hear you had such a good experience and we hope to see you again soon! Mahalo!
Everything was great. Provided all the necessary items. If you are a do it yourself type of person book them. They have you in the water very quickly. Point you in the right direction and your off to explore.

The ladies. Captain and the lunch was good. Would recommend the good experience to others. No regrets at all.
What an awesome time !! Omg staff was so caring and took time to take our pictures ! would definitely recommend
and this place is remarkable beautiful !
This was a great add on to the end of our trip on Oahu. The kayak rental crew provides you with all the gear and info you need and then sends you on your way. Great way to get out and away from shore and see some of the reefs and that giant sandbar! Definitely recommend!
Aloha Adam! That's awesome! Thank you so much for joining us for a kayak and snorkel adventure, and thank you for taking the time to leave such an awesome review! We really appreciate that. This wonderful feedback means a lot to us. Stoked to hear you had a great experience and hope to see you again soon! Mahalo!
Highly recommend! Snorkeling, playing volleyball, taking amazing photos with amazing views was priceless! The food was awesome and had plenty for leftovers! We even got a complimentary guitar performance at the end! So much fun, so much knowledge and so much to see and do! Lovedddd this tour!
I had the best time!!! The staff was so friendly and nice and we even got a little special guitar performance on the way back to the island. The lunch was spectacular and if there are any leftovers, they will be given! But it is very filling! I can’t imagine what I’d do if I came to Hawaii and missed this tour! I wholeheartedly recommend this!!!
I had rented a tandem kayak rental at this place and they were really great in accommodating our schedule. Originally we were planning to go out on a Saturday, but the weather was not ideal, so we asked if we can reschedule and they did allow us to reschedule for later in the week as a one time exception.
It was a great idea to do that since the following Tuesday we went and the weather was fantastic (sunny and low winds).
The sandbar is about a 30-45 min kayak, and it wasn't rough at all. The scenery is beautiful and it was pretty cool to be standing out on a sandbar that far out from shore. Overall, I would definitely do it again as long as the weather cooperates.
Aloha! Thank you so much for joining us for a kayak and snorkel adventure! And thank you for taking the time to leave such an awesome review for us! We really appreciate that. I am so glad to hear that things worked out and you were able to come on a different day with better conditions and have a good experience. Hope to see you again soon! Mahalo!
The shuttle service was phenomenal. The food was decent 8/10. It was what we expected but not beyond expectation. The performance was good. The performers were enthusiastic.
The ladies in the boat were great!! Great lunch and snorkeling
This is our first time parasailing and I admit, we were all nervous, but the captain and her crew made us feel safe by telling us all the pre-cautions we need to do. The ride to the take-off site was fun. The actual take off was smooth and the view from the top was awing. This is once in a lifetime experience and I am glad we did this. My 8 year-old son had a great time as well and want to do it again. Highly recommending this activity. Thank you for such a wonderful experience and not to forget the staffs who checked us in that were very accommodating and patient in answering all our questions.
Our tour guide is very candid making the trip entertaining and as we head our way to Pearl Harbor, he was able to make us feel and re-lived the day of the attack and its so full of emotion. We were happy he did this as we didn’t realize they closed out the theater to watch the documentary and move it outside so we weren’t able to watch it. Thank you again for such an excellent tour
Experiencing Germaine’s Luau is a must-have on everyone’s bucket list when in Oahu. It’s a True Polynesian experience, Hands down. The professionalism of the entertainment is nothing less than Beautiful. Everyone was beautiful and they set the tone of a family environment when I was there as well as my entire time on the island.
Aloha and Mahalo for taking time to send such beautiful comment about your experience at our Family luau. We hope you will share your experience as well as some of your photos with your family and friends!! We would love for you to post some photos to our Facebook page...Germaine's Luau & Special Events, or #germainesluau, #experienceohana,
We hope you will come back to our island one day, and visit us again!! Mahalo, Germaine's Luau Ohana.
My family and I enjoyed the performance very much. It was a great experience.
From start to finish, the instructors were very professional and had humor while we were doing the activities. I regret not purchasing the 6 lines because it was so much fun, we all wanted to more. 10/10 I’ll do this again once I come back to Oahu!
