From pick up point to going home, the tour was incredible.
On arrival there was time to look at the other attractions such as the farmer's market, the petting zoo (get to pat a tortoise?)
I would say our guide had to be really good, if not, it is hard to appreciate locations (especially they are just views, really). Our tour guide would make up 85% of the tour.
This tour is recommended if you are a movie/TV fan.

We arrived early so the receptionist said they could fit us in sooner than our appointment so we agreed. It was fine at first once we got on the boat but my excitement started to fade once he started fitting me for my harness. I am a plus size female but the harness “fitted” to me was way too big. It won’t be apparent until we’re in the air, unfortunately. I did the experience with my mom since we came to Hawaii for her 55th birthday. Once in the air, it was very obvious my harness was way too big. If I didn’t hold on for dear life, I would’ve probably fallen back. I didn’t feel safe or secure. The whole experience caused me undue stress & anxiety especially since we were at 1000 feet. The guys on the boat were nice, no complaints about them except for the fact they dipped the other participants 3 or 4 times while they only dipped us once in the ocean. When we docked, I told the receptionist & she dismissed my concern. Not happy with the harness sizing; the one dip in the ocean AND how my concern was handled. I wouldn’t recommend this company. Go with another company!

100ft underwater. We saw turtles, fish, sunken ships, and sunken planes! Visibility on the day we went was crystal clear and we took tons of photos. I went with my good friend and she brought her 4-year-old. He absolutely loved it!! One thing though, the shuttle boat from shore to the submarine drop zone can be really windy. I packed a jacket which the kiddo was glad that I need since it got a little breezy. Once we were in the submarine, it's fully air-conditioned so I'd have a light jacket if you get cold easily.

Jurassic Valley. Kualoa Ranch is GORGEOUS. We did both the zipline and the e-bike in the same day. Loved the zipline! All ziplines were side-by-side so we could take photos/video of each other the entire time. There's a bit of short walks/hikes between some of the zipline platforms but nothing too extensive.
I would recommend bringing a GoPro with a wrist strap + carabiner so you can clip it onto your zipline harness and not worry about accidentally dropping or breaking your phone.

This tour was a blast! We had previously done the ATV Raptor and this follows a similar route. I really liked how QUIET the electric bikes were. It was stunning being inside this 4,000 acre area and seeing all the sights but not having to hear a super loud roar of the ATVs. We did the "Novice" tour which was 2-hours and had plenty of stops at the movie site sets too to take photos.
Overall, great tour! Our tour guide was also really knowledgeable and friendly.

Great way to see a lot in 1 day! We flew over from Oahu to Big Island and spent the entire day learning about Volcanoes National Park. Akaka Falls was gorgeous too!
We did the land tour and helicopter combo. Unfortunately, the helicopter tour cancelled because of weather. We joined the rest of the group who was doing the land-only option and saw a few really cool spots including Liliuokalani Gardens and other parts of Hilo town. I wore comfortable shoes (running shoes) and am glad I did because we did quite a bit of walking.

Tasty buffet dinner! The food was DELICIOUS. I really liked the variety of food - and dessert options! While I'm not vegetarian, I did notice there were a few vegetarian options - including the fried rice (my favorite). There was some hula dancing for the first part of the dinner and we could join in for hula lessons. I liked that this was an outdoor dinner BUT there was a covered tent above us in case of any rain.
And, it did end up raining. Lucky for us, the covered tent kept us nice and dry. Then, we headed inside to the indoor theater where we saw the Vegas-style impersonators for Elvis, Michael Jackson, and a local performer.

I had tried to go on this tour previously for the flight school but it cancelled. This time, we opted for the scenic flight. The experience was pretty cool - and really immersive especially if you have an interest in aviation.
It was really rainy and we had called a couple times on the way to the airport to see if the flight was going out. The cloud cover was pretty low on the northeast side so a lot of the mountain view was obstructed. Overall, pretty cool tour but wish the weather cooperated with us!
Would go again for the flight school option!

Sharks!! Yes...SHARKS. And yes, you CAN see them from the boat. It's wild to see such majestic creatures in their natural habitat. You go a few miles offshore for this trip so it does get choppy. We did an early morning tour which has calmer ocean conditions than the later tours. And I am so glad we did! We only had a super light breakfast before going out (think a bit of fruit, light bites only).

8 ziplines, 2 rappels, and 3 sky bridges. This course has the longest zipline on Oahu with one of the zips being 1/2 mile long. I loved having ocean views throughout the ziplining experience. There were water stations throughout the course. We did the afternoon zipline and I'm so glad I wore plenty of sunscreen! Prepare to work up a sweat as you go throughout the course. There's stairs for some of the zipline platforms. Overall, really nice ocean views, friendly staff & had a blast!

This experience really shows off Oahu's beauty! My boyfriend and I reserved a 4 hour time slot and kayaked out the sandbar. We had as much fun getting to the sandbar as we did at the actual sandbar. Snorkeled around a nearby coral reef and saw a huge sea turtle. Kayaked around the sandbar a little more before heading back and saw 5 other sea turtles. I hear that's pretty rare though. Don't bring towels because they'll get soaked anyway on the kayak and bring lots of sunscreen and hats!!

That is great and we really appreciate it! Stoked to hear you had such a great experience and that the turtles cooperated for you! Hope to see you again soon! Mahalo!

Go on a Friday to catch the Friday night fireworks sponsored by Hilton Hawaiian Village. Usually after dinner is done, and while the performers entertain, guests usually hangout by the side rail outside the dining area, or at the top deck to get good seating/viewing spots until the fireworks. Otherwise, food was mediocre good (we had the crab, steak, and mashed potatoes deal) and complimentary Mai Tai was too sweet with little to no alcohol. Dessert was brought out while guests were in the deck plates. It was between the boat cruise or a luau....we should've tried the luau.

I booked the earliest time, but I was informed that it was already full, so I was able to book the 11:30 slot instead. It seems to be a popular tour! However, the pickup time remained the same, and I ended up having to kill about two hours at a Croatian lunch. If I could have joined another tour during that time, it would have been a ★5 experience.
I really enjoyed the horseback riding. The two hours of riding were great, but by the end, my rear and legs were a bit sore. It would have been even better if there had been some talk about Jurassic Park along the way. Still, the breathtaking views are something you don't get to see often. The mountains and the sea were absolutely stunning.
1番早い時間を申し込んだのですが既に一杯との連絡があり、その後の11:30に申し込めました。人気のツアーのようです♡でも、送迎時間は変わらずで結局クロアチアランチで約2時間も時間を潰さなければいけませんでした。その間他のツアーに参加出来たら★5だったんですけどね。
乗馬は満喫出来ました。たっぷり2時間の乗馬で最後は少しお尻や足が辛かったです。本当は途中でジュラシックパークのお話とかがあればもっと良かったんですけどネ。でも、あの絶景はなかなか見ることは出来ません。山も海も素晴らしい景色でした。

This is my third time visiting Kualoa Ranch. The scenery is amazing, and the thrill of racing through the wind was a very enjoyable experience. The guide took unique photos that will serve as great memories.
However, even with the mountain bike saddle adjusted to the lowest position, I could barely touch the ground with my toes, which felt quite dangerous. As expected, I fell when stopping on a slope. It was stated that participants must be at least 140 centimeters tall, but I felt that you need to be at least 160 centimeters to ride safely.
クアロアランチに行くのは3回目です。景色は最高、スリル満点で風を切って走り抜けるのはとても気持ちのいい体験でした。ガイドの方には記念に残るユニークな写真も撮影してもらい良い記念になりました。
ただマウンテンバイクのサドルの位置を一番低くしても両足のつま先がやっと地面につく程度で、かなり危険を感じました。案の定傾斜のある場所で停車する際に転倒してしまいました。身長140センチ以上参加可能となっていましたが、160センチはないと安全には走行できないと感じました。

We made a reservation with my husband for our honeymoon trip.
Although the explanation was in English, I was able to participate without any issues by using gestures and observing other guests.
There were 10 of us in total, including my husband and me, and everyone was very friendly, making it a lot of fun!
While other guests were parasailing, the boat rocked quite a bit, so if you're feeling uneasy, I recommend taking motion sickness medication!
The photos were $40.00, but I declined because the reviews from others weren't very good.
The scenery was absolutely amazing, and I was moved by the sense of openness and the views that I had never experienced before!

We weren’t anticipating the sunken city and surrounding sandbars for snorkeling, so in four hours we went out that direction first then went back to the main sandbar almost to the bird sanctuary. Didn’t see many people out there which was surprising. Didn’t look how we expected it. Felt like the only kayak out there. Took forever just to get around fighting the current and have lots of shoulder pain the following day. Glad we survived to tell the tale. We did see many many turtles.
Aloha Katie,
Thank you for joining us for a kayak and snorkel adventure, and for taking the time to leave this review. Glad to hear you saw quite a few sea turtles. Hopefully that was rewarding and a good experience. Otherwise, sorry to hear the experience didn't meet your expectations. It sounds like you paddled quite a far distance overall, and kayaking in the ocean should certainly be expected to be a pretty strenuous workout. Hope your shoulder is okay. Mahalo.
