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!
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!!!
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.
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!
The tour guides were knowledgeable, friendly, and really made the experience top notch. The views were amazing and beautiful and honestly could just spend all day staring at the mountains. The combo tours were definitely worth it!!
Due to being fully booked at the time of application, I had to make a change. I felt a bit anxious at the start, but participating was fantastic. Although we were a pair who couldn't speak English, the staff at the reception were very accommodating. Parasailing was amazing! If there's anything else, I would definitely like to participate again. Also, since I am a member of HGVCULB, I am considering staying at HGVC and using VELTRA for tours and activities.
申し込み時点で満席により変更を余儀なくしました。出だしでちょっと不安をよぎったのですが、参加して最高でした。
英語が話せない二人連れでしたが、受付の方が良く対応して頂けました。パラセイリング最高!また何かあれば是非参画したいです。また、HGVCULBのメンバーですので、宿泊はHGVC、ツアーやアクティビティはVELTRAさんにお願いしようかと思っております。
The greenery is the prettiest I’ve ever seen! Don’t focus on making it to the top and seeing the waterfall…the best part is the experience getting there!
I had such a good time parasailing as it was my first time doing it. Our captains were so friendly and funny during the ride. The pictures they took also turned out really great. This was a great experience for a great price.
Wouldn't miss this while on island! A truly unbelievable experience for my family and I!
I had a wonderful time with our day at Pearl Harbor! Lines were a bit long which is to be expected. Once we reached the memorial it was beyond worth it! The staff really knows everything you need to know about the history there.
Do not book sunset tour if you are sensitive to the feeling of weightlessness and sea sick. The driver makes the ship super super bumpy, which is unnecessary and they only care about the profit. I was feeling extremely unwell and asked if they could send me back and then continue the tour, but the driver kept ask me “do you want to cancel everyone” and kept saying I will have to pay for everyone’s tour. I will not do the parallel sailing so it should save them time to send me back but they just kept making fun of me with no empathy. After the trip I asked if I could get partially refund as a observer since I didn’t do the parallel sailing and saved them time and strength , which is reasonable , but they just denied my request.
I took other ship tours and all of them are fine, but this one is a immediately NO. Especially the driver said he could not understand my English made me feel kinda under a racist circumstances.
The oceanfront trail was simply gorgeous. The horses are retired polo horses and so amazingly trained and sweet! As well the guides know exactly how to help you connect with your horse!
Easily the best Luau on the island. Real hands on experience for the whole family.
This was certainly the highlight of our week in Hawaii. We stayed at the Hilton Lagoon Resort in Waikiki. Our condo overlooked their Luau which we watched twice from our balcony. I can only describe their Luau as trip to McDonald's. It was big and all but was certainly nothing special and nothing personal. They seat about 400 people with most tables seated far away from the stage. Compare that to our experience at Toa Luau and it was like fine dining as compared to a trip to McDonalds. Toa opens up with hands on experiences for everyone. While the guests do not get to climb a coconut tree they do show how it has been for hundreds of years. Guests are given the opportunity to peel off the husks, crack a coconut, and shred the meat. The above ground cooking oven was quite interesting. From there we started with the stage show and took a tour of the Pacific Islands. This is the Luau you want to attend, you will not be disappointed.
Aloha and mahalo for the good review Michael! We are glad to hear that you had a great experience with us and enjoyed the food we prepared for you guys. We would love to see you again soon!
Everything I needed to see! Beautiful historical experience and the tour guides truly know everything there is to know!
Awesome fun tour...Our tour guide was the best very funny and knowledgeable.
This Passport to Pearl Harbor was very convenient because you have the QR code that'll easily get you all the places except the USS Arizona Memorial.
Once you arrive, they'll check your vaccination card & ID and will give you a wrist band. From there it's up to you where you want to visit.
I started with the USS Bowfin, where they'll give you an audio you can listen to as you walk through the sub. My advise is to make sure to carefully listen to it before moving forward cause it's not going to replay. Once you're done visiting the sub, there's a museum that has a virtual tour of the submarine.
After taking a 10 minute shuttle to USS Missouri, you get to step foot where the Japanese surrendered 80 years ago. On the Battleship there's guides who can answer your questions and give you a piece of history. You take another 5 minute shuttle to the Pacific Aviation Museum where they have displays of old aircrafts. It's a great place for those have interest in airplanes cause you are standing right there in front of 20+airplanes! The last stop I made was to the USS Arizona. Highly advise to purchase the boat ticket in advance on the Recreation.gov website because if you don't have one you're going to be in the stand-by line. Give yourself about 1.5-2 hours for each attraction so you can make the most of this passport.
It was such an enjoyable sunset cruise. The crew were so great and kind and FUN.
I actually did not end up horseback riding because my friend was 5lbs over the weight requirement, so we switched for the E Bike tour instead and had a blast! I am however disappointed about the horseback ride. I understand the weight limitation because we wouldn’t want to cause strain or damage to any animals, but my friend and I have both been horseback riding throughout our varying vacations and it’s never been an issue. A horse can hold a man. Anyways, the bikes were great. The valley is beyond beautiful and our tour guide was to coolest!
we had a great time. Our guide was really kind and very funny. The scenery is exceptional and the meal delicious. Huge thanks to Cole Volpe our guide who gave us a taste of the fruits we found on the ranch and drove us like a pro. Thanks for all
This luau was super great and family oriented. The whole staff puts so much effort into a great show! As well it is so awesome to get a free pass to Waimea falls, great purchase for your buck!!
Aloha and mahalo Kara for the great review and 5-star rating. We are glad to know that you enjoyed the luau and had a great experience at Waimea falls. We would love to see you guys again soon!
This was such a great and fun experience! The staff was super friendly and helped us take photos. This is one of the best things we did while in Hawaii.
My wife and I enjoyed the entire trip. Our tour guide was very friendly and very experienced. She went above and beyond for us to enjoy the experience. We will happily recommend for our friends and family that visit the island to do the same. Thank you so much!
This is a nice quick activity for people interested in finishing whether your new or experienced. This can get real tippy on the waves so make sure you have anti-nausea just incase.
The small crew is great, fun and friendly, they're helpful and supportive.
We're used to some medium fish from rivers and lakes mainland, so these fish seemed small, but it was still fun fighting with some on the line, that's always the fun part.
However the water is so clear it's such a different experience.
They will teach you how not to get your weight stuck and how to get it out if you do, if not, they'll help you.
While moving from fishing spot to spot, we had dolphins swim along side our boat and saw a few turtles breach!!
Would love to see if there are bigger fish to catch depending on season but overall was fun, don't expect to be catching massive ocean fish though.
I do not recommend this for kids who either have not fished or are not interested in it before hand. It's fishing, there's a lot of waiting and patience involved, and most kids if they havnt fished before and know it's a waiting game, like on our tour will get bored within 10 minutes of holding a line and will either annoy the other guests or just simply won't enjoy it.
The ultimate package gave us 3 tours and lunch! We loved the Aloha Aina tour, learning about the land the plants, birds and all the agriculture. We enjoyed the hawaiian snacks, learning about the taro, the fish ponds and raising oystes and shrimp. The Hollywood movie tour had fun learning about different movies filmed on the ranch. The Jungle tour was awesome for the views and historical Hawaiian stories of how the ranch came to be what it is today! LUNCH was yummy! Each guide was very informative and always safety first oriented.. Thank you Kualoa Ranch !
This place is amazing. It was a birthday surprise gift for a huge Jurassic Park fan and We really enjoyed our visit. Looking forward to seeing more of it in the future.
My friends and I were celebrating our 30th wedding anniversary in Honolulu. The turtle swim was our first activity. It met all of our expectations and then some. The three men who took out out to swim made us feel very comfortable and we saw several turtles while snorkeling. The catamaran ride was exciting and the views of the island were breathtaking. This is a must activity for anyone visiting this island.
Great activity to do in Hawaii. Awesome and helpful staff
Our family visited the ranch October 2021. We did the movie tour and it did not disappoint! Our tour guide was friendly and full of knowledge. The ranch was absolutely beautiful and the gift shop had plenty of affordable souvenirs! We will definitely visit again to do different tours.
Very fun and entertaining. Lots of amazing views and the guide was well versed in local history. I think the best part was the movie sets so next time we will do the movie sets tour so we can see all of them.
We had a great time. According to my eight year- old daughter, this was the best part of our Oahu vacation. We will definitely return and book the same activity, this time with our close friends.
