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.

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.

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 :)

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。

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.

Staff were great. Food was good. Entertainment was fun.

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。

Yuki and the entire team are a fantastic crew. It’s clearly one of the best activities on the island. Highly recommend them! The volleyball on the sandbar, turtle sightings, and snorkeling along with all the food and drinks were very well coordinated.

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!

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.

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。

Atv adventure was amazing kids enjoyed .guide are excellent!

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.

Kaneohe bay is so beautiful. Everyone was very nice. Snorkeling was super fun. Volleyball on the sandbar was also really fun. Seeing the turtles off the sides of the boat was really cool too.

We all hand wonderful time watching majestic sharks. Crew was very helpful and friendly. Kudos to Chris and Team! Keep up the good work!

But definitely not much to see on the reef
a bit disappointed to that level
the boat drive is very close to shore
Glad we brought our booze :-)))

They worked so well with my family of 5 to make sure we enjoyed our trip! The ATVS are awesome!

We thoroughly enjoyed the outing! The crew was fantastic. The kids and us spent time on SUP, and kayak. We didn't feel rush at all. We also had time to snorkel and see the tropical fishes. I would totally recommend this activity by KBOS.

The whole reason we purchased this day trip was for the USS Arizona Memorial. There were issues with the dock, so we were not able to go out and view…

It was our first time visiting Hawaii, and this sand bar package trip made our experience so much better! Had a great time snorkeling, paddle-boarding, and kayaking at the sandbar! The crew members are very kind and helpful as well. Live music inside the boat made time fly too! I would definitely suggest this package to all my friends!

Phenomenal experience knowing cultures of Polynesian islands.
Unable to experience all the activities being offered on the same day though.

If interested you guys can buy shows tickets after the cultural center activities ahead of time or at least look into it if you want to do it or not.

Must have this expletive while visiting Oahu!!!
Aloha !!!

Great tour guide and beautiful ranch at Kualoa. Would be interested in their other events

Much to enjoy, too little time. Staff and musicians capped off the entire experience.

Overall a great experience worth the money to go 10000ft above Waikiki. The crew were professional, but really friendly and help to boost the mood. They are hilarious and really try to get to know you better. Do note that photos by the crew cost an additional 30 dollars.

The team was super friendly & nice ! Our GoPro wasn’t working when it became time to get in the water so one of the team members let us use theirs w/ a small fee. Totally worth it ! Highly recommend we seen soooo many sharks & fish !

An amazing experience! It’s so well organized and they give you all the information you need to have an amazing time! It’s a wonderful experience and the crew is fantastic! Hanging out at the Sandbar is a unique experience, and as an added bonus, saw lots of turtles and lots of beautiful fish! Absolutely recommend it to anyone thinking about it!

Our tour guide was amazing! The scenery was breath taking. What a great way to spend 2.5hrs. We will be back.

These folks are awesome! They made every second fun and were very safe with everything they did. We had our 1 year old son with us who does great adventuring. They made sure it was east for us and that we all had a good time. They were also so careful to protect the coral and wildlife at the sandbar.

The crew from Moana Catamaran were awesome, laid back, and super helpful the entire experience! The classic island music, the weather, the catamaran.. all the vibes were perfect!

We saw a couple schools of Dolphins on the surface (which I believe is NOT common, so keep that in mind if you book!) and saw about 8-9 sea turtles during our time in the water. A few of them hung around the whole time and swam towards us so close we had to swim away to give them the distance they need.

The crew gave us everything we needed- snorkels, fins, and a floaty to make things super easy for our time in the water. I really enjoyed that it was a waist floaty and not a neck inflatable one like some of the other boats out there. Made it much more enjoyable.

Overall, we were mesmerized by the turtles and the fish / sea life that surrounded us, and had an amazing crew to take us to it. 10/10, 5/5, whatever you want to take from this. My wife said this was "the most amazing experience of her life", and I might even agree. :)

Thanks, Moana Catamaran, for an incredible experience.

By far one of the best tours I’ve ever done! Only regret is realizing I accidentally signed up for UTV rather than ATV, but none to worry as it was still amazing.
