Waikiki Submarine Tour - Descend to 100ft, See Shipwrecks & Sunken Airplanes

Always Honest Review

Reviewed by: Sharon and family

This was a great experience. It was wonderful to be educated about all the ocean conservation and the coral life that is being done. Was also nice at the time, it was not too crowded - which did make this trip worth the price.

North Shore Clear Bottom Kayak Tour & Turtle Watch from Haleiwa Beach

Kayaking

Reviewed by: Jennifer

The whole experience was just amazing! My son and I had pretty much a private tour. Just the two of us and our guide! Our guide went way above and beyond telling us history of Hawaii and just making our experience super special. Our favorite was how relaxing and peaceful kayaking though the river was. And seeing the sea turtle was breath taking! Kayaking on the ocean was so beautiful! Two total different experience in one adventure! Can't wait to come back and do it again!

It was super windy when we went out but we actually ended up getting a private boat ride since none of the other couples showed up. The crewmembers were incredible and more than accommodating with all of our needs and with my pregnant wife.

An Exhilarating Way to See Hawaii

Reviewed by: Hawaii Explorer

This X-Treme Ride on Waikiki's Parasailing Adventure was the PERFECT way to end our Oahu vacation. Waikiki and the beautiful sunny day were the perfect backdrop for our last adventure before we went home to the snowy state of Maine! The crew members were awesome and made this so easy and fun. We were able to sit back and enjoy the ride. They offer a photo package so even if you are doing this alone you can still have a bunch of GREAT photos of you living in the moment. I would definitely recommend this activity!

Waimea Valley Toa Luau & Free Admission Entry Ticket to Waimea Falls [5:00 PM]

Awesome luau, beautiful falls hike

Reviewed by: Michelle B

This luau was our first one but far superior to another one we did later in our trip. The food was great, the scenery gorgeous, and the performers were talented and entertaining. The MC Cousin Billy was truly funny and informative. We had a blast! The next day we did the hike to Waimea Falls and that was excellent as well. I could have floated in the waterfall all day. We spent part of each North Shore day at the Waimea Falls complex and I highly recommend it.

Aloha Michelle, and mahalo for your review! We are delighted to know you had a great time at the luau and we are so glad too that you were able to come back to Waimea Valley to tour the waterfalls and the botanical garden. Unfortunately, it's not something that everybody gets to do. I'm just so glad you made it. :-) Mahalo for your kind review really; it's something that we take joy from, knowing that what we have set out to do is meeting expectations, and we intend to keep it that way. We hope to see you again - come see us when you're back in the island. Until then, may God bless you and yours :-)

This luau is the best! We were staying at the Hilton Hawaiian Village and saw the luau they had from our room. Toa Luau is 100times better that that one! I especially appreciated the intimate and gorgeous setting! The activities they had engaged my 5 and 2 year olds… and had them attentive the whole night! The intimate setting and the care and pride they take in their heritage shows up in the way they do it all! It was personable, intimate, and the wittiest host, Cousin CeCe!

We had a great time at this ranch doing 3 different tours; Jungle Tour, Plant Tour and a Movie Tour! During each of these tours we had great tour guides who taught us lots of cool things about Hawaiian culture and sites. We would definitely go back to Kualoa Ranch and do the other things we didn’t do this time. The Movie Tour showed us the sites for lots of different movies so now I want to go home and watch all of them again! Great fun!! And definitely something I would do again!

Moana sailing is a straight vibe along with their service to our preferred BYOB cruise. Entry was smooth with friendly staff to help with setting a great sail during golden hour near diamond head.
