Oahu
It was one of the best experiences in Oahu. I will do it again! The place is amazing and the crew was excellent at all times! They make everything easy for us to enjoy each moment at the sandbar!
This was a great adventure. I have never snorkeled, so this was very exciting. It was a little scary getting in the 40foot water to swim to the coral. But once I was near the coral, it wasn't bad. I would have liked to see more fish and turtles, but there could have been many reasons why we didn't see that many. What I would have liked to have was more time snorkeling. I felt it was too short. Even though I was still scared to be in the water. I had my husband to hold onto. I did enjoy seeing the fish. I also would have liked for them to play a little music. Just to get the energy going. Not too loud, but a little something would have been nice. Otherwise, all the members of the crew were extremely nice and knowledgeable. I felt very comfortable with them. It was a great adventure, I definitely would recommend it.
This was an amazing experience.
I highly recommend it.
My 4yr & 2yr old had a good time.
The bbq was good and everyone was very friendly and nice. We saw a few turtles most deff worth every penny!
This was one of the best experiences of our vacation! We got to swim with turtles and we’re truly looked after by Captain Robin, We would highly recommend chartering a boat and having this amazing experience. We will definitely do it again.
Aloha and Mahalo for the compliments and sharing beautiful pictures!
Thank you so much for taking the time to write this awesome review of yours.
We are very pleased to hear you're having a great time and you're able to see the turtles at the sandbar.
We're looking forward to seeing you in near the future.
Amazing morning - everything was every smooth & easy from the pickup to the drop off. Unfortunately for us weather was on the dreary side but we still had a great morning.
They take you snorkelling also which is great for anyone who has never snorkelled! Was a great way of seeing the bay & the island.
Thank you so much for joining our tour and spending your time for leaving the review!
We are glad that even though you still had a good time during the tour.
Please come back and we look forward to taking you to the Kane'ohe bay again, Thank you!
If this is your first trip to the Oahu this is the tour to take. I have be here many times an have seen most of the island. I bought my niece & her husband this time an thought this would be a good tour.
It was a good tour, I even saw some places I had not seen before. The driver/tour guide was great. He was informative about the island an very nice.
When I said my name at the reception booth, the boat hadn't returned yet, so I waited a little. I got a sticker on my arm or watch, signed a safety waiver, and boarded the boat. At this time of year, there are no people wearing masks, but since we were on the sea, it didn't bother me.
People on the boat took turns soaring into the sky, and I was asked if I wanted to take photos for an additional $200, but I didn't since I had a GoPro.
I enjoyed the endless sky and sea, and the experience of speeding back with a water landing service was fantastic.
As a note, you need to have $20 in cash for tips.
受付の小屋で名前を言ったら、まだボートが戻ってなくて少し待ちました。腕か時計にシールを貼ってもらい、安全の誓約書にサインしてボートに乗り込みます。もうこの時期はマスクする人もいないですが、海の上なので気にならないです。
ボートに同乗する人で順番に空に舞い上がりますが、オプションで$200の写真をとるか聞かれましたが、ゴープロがあるのでつけませんでした。
どこまでも続く空と海を堪能して、着水サービスもありながら、ボートをかっ飛ばして帰ったのは素晴らしい体験でした。
注意として$20の現金がチップとして必要です。
It was interesting, loved the sand bar, the weather was that great but enjoyed it
Easy way to obtain tickets to all of the activities available. Having the audio narrator added to the experience. Definitely all day experience. Shuttle to Ford Island was good.
Excellent staff and outrigger crew.
Our group planned our visit for two years before we could make the trip. The outrigger canoe was on my bucket list every planning session.
Thanks for the wonderful rides.
Just a great time. The driver was awesom very informative.
Nick, thank you so much for your review and rating!
Belle excursion! Belle équipe. La vue est splendide. 1:30 de plaisir et beauté
Circle tour of Oahu with Travis was fantastic! We had a great time and learned so much about Oahu! If you have time to take this tour...do it! A day of fun, excitement, and beauty all in 1! Loved it...
Awesome experience, would absolutely recommend. The surf was a little rough and the boats were running behind schedule, but the office was willing to accommodate me and put me on an earlier boat so I didn’t have to wait. The crew was amazing and made the experience memorable. They offer photos for a reasonable price so you can just focus on enjoying your time.
Such an amazing experience if you come to Hawaii you have to go to Toa luau ! They really treat you like family, and the dancing and the story telling about the Polynesian culture is just a amazing beautiful experience. Me and my friends had such a great time !
The place is really nice and the boat is clean and safe. The staff are very accommodating and friendly, they gave us detailed instructions and safety reminders. They guided us until we completed our activities.
Me and my 3 girls get there 15 minutes before 9am (few minutes window for us to get the free parking spot and signed the waiver forms).
We reserved the morning all in package and it was satisfying and activities are worth the price.We purchased food at General Store and Deli which is next to the boat docking area. We waited for 4 more groups and the boat moved forward at 9:30am. The live music entertainers were great and they sang really well and made us felt comfortable through out our entire stay. (They have jars for the cash tips so bring some for them coz they deserved it).
The rest of the water activity crews were all friendly and remindful, specially Shyla. She made us felt satisfied with our banana boat and water tubing (flat float). (Follow her advises). Snorkeling was great and found different kinds of fishes. (Be careful not to get hurt from the corals, wear appropriate attire for protection). The kayak and paddle boat crews are very nice, they kept eye on everyone’s safety. We played volleyball but a bit windy so pick the good weather. There were water, orange juice and donuts with 3 different flavors and you can bring your own food and drinks (no glass containers or bottles allowed). It was fun and unforgettable. Thank you!
I made a reservation because I had some time before check-in on the day of arrival. Dolphins swam close to the boat, and I even got to see whales nearby. They sell alcohol on board, so you can enjoy beautiful views while drinking! There were not many solo participants, but the crew was attentive, and there were no issues at all!
I would love to go again!
到着日にチェックインまで時間があったので予約しました。
イルカが近づいてきて船の横で泳いだり、クジラまで近くでみれました。酒も船内で売ってるので、飲みながら綺麗な景色が見れます!
ひとり参加は少ないですが、船員の方も気にかけてくれますし、全く問題ありませんでした!
また乗りたいと思います!
Amazing! Crew made us feel safe and experience is so fun!! All the pics that Diego took captured every moment!
This was a nice boat and tour. We got to see one or two sea turtles. Honestly the water was kind of murky and you don't get to see colorful fish but you do see generic silver ones. We really liked that the drinks were included though and the staff were very helpful, informative and friendly!
It was a great and fun outing. Must do thing when you go to Hawaii.
The crew was very helpful and made the experience very enjoyable. Very knowledgeable and helped to find a good spot to see turtles.
We found the Oahu Island Experience Tour on 29 Apr 22 to be very enjoyable. As always, the tour guide is critical to its success and Stephanie was terrific. She was pleasant, kind, and informative. The only issue – which I pointed out to her at our first stop – was that at times I had problems hearing her. She mentioned that she no longer was provided a microphone for her tours. As it got warmer in the afternoon, she turned up the air conditioner which made it noisier to the point I could barely hear her at all (although the van’s temperature was quite comfortable). To some extent, I was able to make up for it during stops often peppering her with questions which she patiently and knowledgably answered.
I thought the number of stops and venues were appropriate. My friend enjoyed the “non man-made” sites the best; specifically, all the beach venues. But I liked all the stops such as the Dole facility – I appreciate its significance to the area and it’s not often I have the opportunity to enjoy a pineapple float!
My only other “complaint” was it was advertised that the return to our hotel would be between 4pm and 4:30pm while our actual return time was 5:25 pm. I understand Hawaii’s pace is somewhat different, but as a mainlander with an evening tourist schedule to maintain, this would have been helpful to know. We hit significant traffic coming back from Dole, but it also appears we fell behind early in the tour for some reason. To Stephanie’s credit, we didn’t feel rushed to make up time or short us of any activities/sites; she delivered on all that was promised. But IF the typical return time is more often, say, 5pm to 5:30pm, I think the company should be more forthright on that point in its promotion of their tours.
My issue hearing the tour guide is the only matter which kept me from rating the adventure as “outstanding” -- hopefully this is an easy issue to resolve. Keep up the good work, and thanks!
Hello Alan,
Thank you for taking your time in writing us a review. I am glad you had a good time with Stephanie and was able to enjoy your pineapple float. We are sorry about the delay going back. Traffic in Hawaii can be rough at sometime and create delays especially with all the road construction going on. But thank you for your honest comments in which can help improve in many ways. I hope you enjoy the rest of your stay on Oahu.

Had a great time! Guides were both very friendly, constantly topping off drinks and the sail itself was a lot of fun and very enjoyable! Got the right amount of wet (just a little) and had a great evening
Driver Funny was very knowledgeable and the trip was fun
James, we are so happy to hear you enjoyed your tour. Mahalo for choosing us and we hope to see you again!
2 helpful workers helped my 2 little kids give them the opportunity to snorkel. Very grateful they were able to have there experience!
It was pricey but oh so worth it. My husband and I had an amazing time. Tip: wear comfy clothes and do some cool facial expressions, yell, or do some peace signs while you're being filmed! Your photos and videos will turn out amazing and unique that way
Have fun! Mahalo to everyone at Pacific Skydiving. Yall were great!
My boyfriend and I booked this ATV tour with the intention of just having fun and getting dirty, but it turned out to be so much more than that! Our tour guide, Kioke, was exceptional! He has such a welcoming demeanor and made our trip so much fun! He was very knowledgeable about Hawaii and how the lands came about. We truly think he's a natural when it comes to his line of work! We really enjoyed every minute of our trip and were excited to hear of different types of tours that could be added in the future! If we come back to Oahu, we will make sure to come visit Kioke on the north shore again!
Mahalo Sydney for sharing your tour experience with us. Weʻre thrilled that you had such an enjoyable time! Indeed our company likes to have fun, teach/share about our culture, and take care of the natural resources, so weʻre glad you appreciate how we "roll." And yes, Keoki is a great guide who enjoys people and really loves sharing our mountains with others. We look forward to your next visit!
Our excellent tour guide Jonah-guru of all things Oahu-picked us up from our Wakiki hotel
*Malasada from a little truck (custard if you're a traditionalist, or chocolate if you're a chocoholic)
*Diamond head (crater), you can see some of the trails and scenic look out point. Aina Haina and Portlock areas have higher end real estate.
*Koko head crater where you can still see the old railway trail (built by the military-steep!)
*The prettiest (in my humble opinion) lookout point is Halona Blowhole, overlooking the lava tube that creates this lovely effect. Bonus: small secluded, pristine and one of the most filmed beaches: Halona Beach (aka Eternity Beach!)
*Sandy Beach, and the lighthouse at the end of Makapuu Point lighthouse Trail.
*100's of plumeria trees in the groves at Koko Crater Botanical Garden, with a nearby ranch for horses!
*Manana Island Seabird Sanctuary (Rabbit Island, lovely profile at an angle)
*Waimanalo Beach (home to some celebrities, careful with all the road construction-expect delays!)
*Inland, you see Olamana Trail (3 challenging peaks for hiking)
*Tropical Farms Macadamia Nuts Outlet store-sampling of coffee and nuts is definitely allowed!
*Filming preserve of Kualoa Ranch, as well other activities (such as horseback riding, and ziplining)
*Outline of Chinaman's Hat (equally beautiful in real life)
FOODIE ALERT: Kahuku Sugar Mill is THE highlight of the day! Food Truck Heaven and I wish I could eat my way through here. I recommend garlic shrimp with reaper sauce, and Ry's Poke on salad. Dessert overload, and dont forget the Kuilima Farm-Fruit Stand.
*Sunset Beach for surfing contests
*Shark's Cove and Pupukea with tide pools
*Haleiwa village and Haleiwa Beach, on a sunny and clear day, you can see the turtles at the shore.
*Dole Plantation- everything pineapple rules
Heading back, can't help but think I'd absolutely repeat this journey! Mahalo for our first exhilarating and family friendly Oahu Island Experience!!
Hello Rana,
Thank you for the review. I am glad you had a good time with the family. We did a lot of touristing that day. I would love to take you around the island again if you ever get the chance to visit the Islands. The Garlic shrimp from Da Bald Guy is making me hungry now. I hope you had a great time in Hawaii and hope to see you guys one day again.

This was a great mini adventure for our family. The crew was outstanding and very attentive to everyone on board and provided everything we needed for snorkeling. We saw turtles and lots of fish and would highly recommend this to anyone wanting to snorkel off the coast of Waikiki.
Took me a bit to find which sunset cruise I wanted to go with but very happy we chose this one! Open bar made it so much easier on vacation. Out on the water is one of the best places to see the sunset. Crew was super friendly and accommodating. Boat is beautiful. Great experience for a great price!
