Waikiki Snorkel with Turtles Cruise with Beers & Cocktails - Ke Kai Catamaran

Fun excursion!

Reviewed by: Adiba

The staff was super friendly and accommodating. It was a really fun experience. We got to see turtles and spinner dolphins! It was a great way for us to end our trip in Hawaii. It is recommended though to know swimming well if you want to snorkel as the life jackets are not buoyant enough to keep you afloat.

2-Hour Jurassic Valley Kualoa Ranch ATV Raptor Adventure Tour - Most Popular!

The best thing we did on Oahu!

Reviewed by: rebwhi9

We did a lot on Oahu - custom tour throughout the island, Pearl Harbor, and more - plus we enjoyed every minute (except maybe the charging to hold our bags at Pearl Harbor, but that's a different review).

Our ATV time on the ranch was hands down the most fun we had. The ranch is packed with movie shooting sites, and they clearly denote where these movies were filmed. The guides were funny, humble, and fantastic photo-takers.

We arrived just after a Forrest Gump style rain... one we thought would surely cancel our tour, but there's no chance in that. On the ranch, any weather is good weather (but we're sure glad the sun came out).

Do yourself a favor and book this tour!

Capt. Ige and crew was great. They treated us very good and showed us a great time. I am definitely going to do it again with other friend that comes up from abroad. Beach volleyball was fun and snorkeling near the reef was a blast as we were close to a sea turtle.

Awesome adventure!

Reviewed by: Khen H

The ATV tour was extremely fun. My family enjoyed every bit of it. Luckily it stopped raining as our tour was about to start, but it added a little extra excitement as we drove through puddles and wet landscape.

The ranch is beautiful and well kept. Our guides were very informative and fun to be with. I would book this tour again when we come back to Oahu in the future.

Waikiki Guided Beach Snorkeling Tour for Beginners with FREE Photos & Videos

Awesome experience for beginners (non-swimmers).

Reviewed by: aj3031

We are a family of 4 (2 adults and 2 kids 9yr old and 6yr old). Instructor was very patient enough to guide us how to snorkel. He provided us some tricks to make snorkeling easier for beginners. He was always there to help us out and made us feel comfortable. Except for my spouse everyone else in the group are non-swimmers, the instructor helped us navigate through the water, and to top it he took amazing videos of us while snorkeling :)

イルカ大学 イルカウォッチング&シュノーケリングクルーズ イルカと泳ぐプランも!マリンアクティビティも充実<ランチ付き/日本語/ワイキキ&コオリナ送迎可>

A bit overpriced & be careful of seasickness. やや割高&船酔い注意

Reviewed by: まいむ

Since it was the season, I was able to see whales. That said, they were quite far away, and I only saw their spouts and tails... Unfortunately, during the dolphin swim, I didn't encounter any dolphins, but on the way back, I was able to see some resting dolphins from the boat in the shallow waters where they make their beds. There was also time for snorkeling, but since a large group was chasing the turtles all at once, both the fish and turtles got scared, and I only got to see them properly for about five minutes. Depending on luck, it does feel a bit overpriced, especially since I paid over 20,000 yen, but considering the transportation and lunch included, I guess this is what you get with the high prices in Hawaii and the impact of COVID-19 on the tourism industry. However, the staff were truly kind and reliable; even though I participated alone, they were always considerate, and I had a great time. Due to the holiday season, the boat was fully booked with people from Europe, America, and China, but the waves were high, and the boat was rocking, leading to many people getting seasick. After the middle of the trip, it turned into a scene from hell. It might be better to aim for the off-season for various reasons.

シーズンということで、クジラも見れました。と言ってもかなり遠くで、潮吹きと尾っぽのみでしたが…肝心のドルフィンスイムではイルカに出会えず、帰り際にイルカたちが寝床にしている浅瀬で、お休み中のイルカを船上から見ることができました。シュノーケリングの時間もありますが、大人数で一斉にカメを追いかけるため、魚もカメも怖がってしまい、まともに見れたのは5分程度です。運次第ではありますが、2万円以上払っただけに全体的には割高感は否めませんが、送迎とランチ付きでハワイの物価の高さ&コロナ禍の観光業となるとこうなってしまうのかとしれません。ただ本当にスタッフの皆さんは優しくて頼もしく、1人参加でしたが常に気遣ってもらい楽しく過ごせました。なおホリデーシーズンのため欧米や中国の方で満席状態でしたが、とにかく波が高くて船が揺れるため船酔いする人が続出。中盤以降は地獄絵図と化していました。色々な意味でシーズンオフを狙った方が良いかもしれません。

It was unfortunate that you couldn't meet the dolphins this time, but please come back for another chance!

Honolulu X-Treme Parasailing Tour Adventure [700ft, 850ft, 1000ft or 1200ft Rides]

Flying High!

Reviewed by: Mary

The was the BEST parasailing we’ve ever done - and we’ve done several on both coasts of the mainland and different islands. Although the seas were a bit rough, the parasailing was outstanding. The captain and crew of Freedom were gems. My son said he would give them a 6 out of 5 stars - lol.
Definitely go for the 1000 feet! The windy day really had us flying well above any of the competition.
Will do this one again on our next visit.

ワイキキトロリー ワイキキ巡回トロリーまたはミニバス 乗り放題1・4日間券(アラモアナ、ダイアモンドヘッド、カカアコ、東海岸など)

Friendly and convenient, but as of December, only 3 lines are available. フレンドリーで便利、でも12月現在使えるのは3ラインのみ

Reviewed by: まいむ

There are Red, Green, Pink, Blue, and Purple options, but due to the year-end or perhaps the impact of COVID-19, currently only Red, Pink, and Blue are available. It's a strange conversion method where instead of being valid for four consecutive days from ticket exchange, you can use four days within a one-week period. The three lines mentioned above can take you to classic tourist spots and shopping centers, so I think it's great for first-time visitors to Hawaii. The vehicle is always ventilated with the windows open, and both the driver and ticket staff were friendly and nice.

レッド・グリーン・ピンク・ブルー・パープルとありますが、年末のせいかコロナの影響か、現在使えるのはレッドとピンクとブルーのみです。不思議な換算方法で、チケット引き換えから連続4日間ではなく、1週間の期限の中で4日分使えるというシステムとのこと。上記3ラインはオーソドックスな観光地やショッピングセンターは回れるので、初ハワイの方には良いかと思います。車内は常に窓を開けて換気対策をしていますし、運転手の方やチケット担当の方はみなフレンドリーで良かったです。

Dear Maimu,

Thank you very much for using the Waikiki Trolley. Currently, due to the impact of the coronavirus, we are operating only three lines, and we sincerely apologize for the inconvenience this may cause our customers. We hope to restore the other lines as the situation in Hawaii changes. We look forward to your next visit.

まいむ様

この度はワイキキトロリー をご利用頂き誠にありがとうございました。
現在はコロナウイルスの影響により3ラインのみの運行となっておりましてお客様方には大変ご迷惑をおかけしております。
今後、ハワイの状況が変わり次第他のラインも復活させていきたいと思っております。

ハンズ・ヒーデマン サーフィンレッスン

Be careful of injuries when wearing shorts. 短パンの場合はケガに注意

Reviewed by: まいむ

There was an instructor who spoke Japanese, and although there was only one Japanese person, I was able to have a great time. However, there are blocks in the water near the beach that are hard to see from above, so while I could stand, I bumped my legs on the way back and scraped both knees, which was painful. The shop lends long-sleeved rash guards, so my upper body was fine, but those participating in shorts need to be careful about sunburn as well.

日本語の話せるインストラクターもいらっしゃり、日本人ひとりでしたが楽しく過ごすことができました。ただ浜辺近くは上からは見えにくいブロックが海中にあるため、足は着くものの戻る際に足をぶつけて両膝とも擦りむいて痛い思いをしました。お店が長袖のラッシュガードを貸してくれるので上半身は大丈夫ですが、短パンで参加される方は日焼け対策含めて注意が必要です。

I took my daughters and one of their friends out for diving experience. Even though the instructors tried and tried to help them they couldn’t seal their mask and became sea sick. This was no fault of the dive instructors or dive company. My daughters still had a good time snorkeling.
My daughter’s friend and I dived and enjoyed the experience. Make sure you tip the instructors and captain well, it is a lot of work to make this adventure happen and they deserve it.!

Captain Bob's Kaneohe Sandbar Snorkeling Tour & BBQ Lunch with Waikiki Pickup

The best snorkeling tour!

Reviewed by: Irene

I’ve been to around 6-7 different snorkel tours and the experience at Bob’s tour is by far the best. The tour is well planned, faculties are pretty new and the crew attend to a lot of details - like you’ll get a shower right after you get out of water which helps a lot if you don’t like the sea smell & want to get warm and dry quickly. The lunch is also really delicious. They even provide hot chocolate after the snorkeling, not to mention the beautiful white sand, dozens of turtles and tremendous view at the snorkeling point. Mahalo for the great experience!

Kualoa Ranch Movie Sites Tour - Visit TV Shows & Hollywood Filming Locations

Kualoa Ranch Movie Tour was a great value and experience (Tour Guide Haydn)

Reviewed by: Riverside CA Family

The experience was more than worth the price paid for admission. If you’re loaded and wealthy with a family of five, then yeah spend on the ATV experience. But this 90 minute bus tour was well worth the money. Our tour guide, Haydn, was awesome! We’ve been on a number of guided tours in Hawaii and Haydn is energetic, funny and knowledgable. He even offers to take great family photos or individual pictures, too! I don’t know of any tour guides that will do that. I own an RV, so driving around and talking would be difficult, especially at this ranch. Haydn does a great job navigating turns and difficult terrain. He manages to do this while cracking jokes and recalling detailed information and trivia. This tour stops and allows passengers to get out and take great pictures. You still have access to look around the grounds including the ranch history exhibit, horses, and gift shop. This tour is highly recommended.

クアロア・ランチ 乗馬体験(2時間) 映画ロケ地にもなった雄大な大自然を馬に乗って満喫!<送迎付きプランあり>

The experience was fun. 体験は楽しかった。

Reviewed by: 青年And

The horseback riding experience offered very good scenery and a great experience, but I was left with some dissatisfaction regarding the free time afterward.

This course includes mountain and sea activities, but there were no sea activities taking place.

As a result, I visited the museum and other places, but they were small and not something to spend a long time at, so it was difficult to pass the time until we returned.

乗馬体験では、非常に良い景色、そして良い経験もさせて頂きましたが、その後の自由時間に関しまして不満が残りました。

このコースは山、海コースとなっていますが、海のアクテビティは、なにも開催されていませんでした。

そのため資料館等には行きましたが小さく長時間いるものでもないので帰るまで時間を潰すのが大変でした。

2-Hour Jurassic Valley Kualoa Ranch ATV Raptor Adventure Tour - Most Popular!

Couldn’t have been better!

Reviewed by: Olivia Hartman

Let me start off by saying my husband and I almost didn’t get to go on the tour..(my fault)

I booked the UTV Jurassic Valley tour for a Tuesday instead of Wednesday. So when we arrived and the lady at the front desk couldn’t find our booking, realizing that I booked for the wrong day..my heart sunk. My husband and I walked away from the counter, I shed a single tear and then hear my name shouted to come back to the counter. They had a spot available for the 10am tour..I WAS ECSTATIC. The name of the lady who helped us eludes me but she was amazing and helpful and it’s because of her that we even got to go on the trip!!

NOW FOR THE TOUR!
Dani and Josiah were our tour guides and they were extremely fun and had no shortage of hilarious jokes throughout the tour. The history about each piece of land and every place we stopped at was really awesome to learn about. It was pretty impressive to find out that although plenty of people have tried buying them out, this land has stayed within the same family for seven generations! I also loved hearing about all the films they shot in each area, especially getting to see some of the props still set up. One of the things I loved the most was getting to make the T-Rex shot at the Jurassic Valley where we run away from the Dino. Definitely something we get to cherish for years to come.

Side note::
The gift shop also had great stuff in there, and the food was pretty good too!
Definitely will be coming back with friends!

Thank you all for a great experience.
