North Shore Sunset & Daytime Horseback Riding with Ocean Views - Gunstock Ranch
Total blast - even with rain
Activity Date: 2021/12/29 | Posted on: 2021/12/31

This was a nice easy ride. Our group took a bit longer because we had so many horses stop for bathroom breaks - one stopped 3x!! The wranglers were awesome! We had Cole and Hannah (Montana). Although it was wet and windy we still got some great views of the ocean. I was lucky enough to ride Autograph who has been in movies and TV shows like Magnum PI & Hawaii Five-O. She was a great horse. We enjoyed the ride a lot and would definitely come back for the longer ride next time.

Excellent

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!!!

Hidden Gems at Gunstock Ranch Guided Tour - Private ATV Off-Road Adventure
Not for the faint-of-heart
Activity Date: 2021/11/29 | Posted on: 2021/12/12

This adventure is for the thrill-seeker; definitely not for the faint-of-heart. It was not what we expected as we hoped to see Hawaiian countryside that we couldn't see from a tour bus. What we saw were a lot of trees and hills and horses. We held on for dear life as the tour guide drove at high speed around curves and up and down hills. The campfire dinner was very good, but it was difficult to enjoy it because the wind was so strong and chilly. Some people might really appreciate this adventure, but it was not for us.

Family fun adventure
Activity Date: 2021/11/20 | Posted on: 2021/12/11

Our drivers were fantastic! We learned a ton about the land and enjoyed the picnic lunch near the end. Beautiful views again, the two girls that toured us around very fun and tailored the experience to the vehicle. We had adults in one and children in the other. By far our favorite activity during our stay in Oahu.

CLIMB Works Keana Farms - Oahu Zipline Tour with 8 Lines, ATV Ride, Rappel, Skybridge Course
Amazing time!
Activity Date: 2021/12/04 | Posted on: 2021/12/05

Dallas, Jamie, and Bailey were amazing tour guides! They were super nice and helpful and patient with all of us! They had great information during the tour like the kinds of plants grown on the farm we zipped over and background on the history of Oahu! Unfortunately because of very bad rain we had to skip line 6 which I heard was the best one for safety reasons! I would definitely go again if I’m in Oahu!

ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!!!
Activity Date: 2021/11/28 | Posted on: 2021/12/02

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!!!

Waimea Valley Toa Luau & Free Admission Entry Ticket to Waimea Falls [5:00 PM]
Best Luau on the Island. Not just a show, a real family experience.
Posted on: 2021/11/22

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.

Shark Diving Hawaii - Cageless Pelagic Snorkel Tour with FREE Photos & Videos
Crew was great, saw two sharks but it was a great experience.
Activity Date: 2021/10/02 | Posted on: 2021/10/23

Careless shark diving was a great experience.
No GoPros allowed on this trip but they take photos for you and some videos.
We saw two sharks on this trip and sandbar and a Galapagos but they were very active and would come very close, but you can also see them 80 yards down, because the water is clear.
The last 10 minutes you are somewhat free to dive down and swim with them.

Polynesian Cultural Center Tour Ticket - Full Day Admission, Dinner & Show
Educational and entertaining
Activity Date: 2021/10/21 | Posted on: 2021/10/22

Great place to visit. Highly recommend going but honestly will next time rent a car or take an Uber and just pay at the park or on line for tickets. We went with buffet and stayed for the show. Things could get hairy at the end because the bus you arrive in may not be the same you head back on. There are multiple buses waiting and you have to ask each driver if they are going to your stop. We were very lucky to hit the right bus on the first try. Need a better system. Great place to visit with kids. Folks there are super friendly.

It was truly awe inspiring to see these amazing animals in the wild. The crew was informative and helpful. The waters were choppier than normal, so there was some sea sickness, but that wouldn’t stop me from doing it again. Completely loved it!

The Polynesian Cultural Center is a beautiful, fun, living museum. Pacific Island Native people use songs and traditional dances to tell the stories of their culture. They have reverence for the Islands and also have fun showing the beauty and fun of their heritage. We visitors are referred to as “Family”. We are made to feel very welcome and are invited to participate in crafts, dance and games with the Island people. The Buffett and the show are wonderful. Thank you!!!

Discover Oahu’s North Shore from Waikiki with The Surf Bus - Snorkel, Kayak, SUP & Waimea Falls
Loved this!!
Activity Date: 2021/09/13 | Posted on: 2021/10/02

Cousin G was awesome! We had a great day. The morning activity we chose snorkeling. Unfortunately for others, the falls were closing on Monday’s starting THAT day due to covid restrictions, so everyone had to do snorkeling. Had some food from shrimp truck, it was okay. We stopped at a macadamia nut and coffee tasting place, that was really cool. We did kayaking for our afternoon activity- not a lot of shade so definitely bring sunscreen or wear a long sleeve top, we roasted on the river. Then we stopped in town. Was a great day on the north shore, thanks again cousin g!
