Waikiki Submarine Tour - Descend to 100ft, See Shipwrecks & Sunken Airplanes
Overall Rating
4.54Expensive, no marine life
Reviewed by: Mr. Anonymous, 2012/11/25I was disappointed with the tour. I expected to see a lot of marine life. This was not worth the price that was charged. Pictures were also very expensive. No one purchased the pictures during my tour. You may want to reconsider the pricing.

Booked the wrong tour
Reviewed by: bill.cole@dragonplasticsi, 2012/07/31The sub was great, the staff were great. Bookings.com suck. They reserved us on a Japanese only tour. We could have changed but it would have been the next day. Took the verbal portion away. we had headphones that would explain it in english but not so good with the main staff speaking to the group in Japanese. I have a 5 and 8 year old so it made it more difficult for them. Make sure you confirm what the booked you for !!

Reviewed by: David R, 2012/06/04Truly enjoyed the boat ride out and the associated views. The sub was great. Clear water, tons of fish, turtles and two sharks...would do this again in a heartbeat.

Reviewed by: karen, 2012/05/05our family including my mum and friends went on this activity one of our friends got sick on the way out. I suffer from claustrophobia and was very surprised how big it was. The whole family enjoyed the experience we got to see three turtles would do it again.

wow
Reviewed by: hb, 2012/02/27Premium Submarine Tour was very cool, well worth the extra money. Seating was comfortable. Tour guide very informative, easy to understand. My only complaint is we had a couple of smaller kids on the sub, they put on the headphones and sang most of the tour. We were able to see some pretty amazing ocean life, including a very large sea turtle, and a sting ray!
Would recommend for early in your vacation! We did this tour in the afternoon after the Whale watching breakfast cruise. We were also able to move up our reservation 2 hours just by stopping at the tent at the Hawaiiam Hilton, no extra charge!

Wonderful!!
Reviewed by: Erin Docking, 2012/01/02This was such an amazing activity to do in Hawaii!! This was my second trip in a matter of 8 months to hawaii and I was advised by friends to try this out and I was not disappointed!! The arrays of sea life and colours of the ocean and fish are so diverse! I loved it and would even go on it again when I go back to Hawaii in 2O12.

The world of Atlantis
Reviewed by: Maj Juul, 2011/07/13A good and comfortable way to experience the sealife. Recommendable to families and people who would like to see colourful fish and turtles without getting wet.

Good Time!
Reviewed by: Fusionone41, 2011/02/01The sub ride was what we expected. It started with a nice boat ride out to the sub. On the sub ride the guide was very good, we were able to see a huge sea turtle and were able to take very good pictures. All in all very good.

Great fun!
Reviewed by: MinnesotaMike, 2010/04/21The kids loved it. The ride out was fun, we saw several sea turtles swimming alongside the boat. The staff were friendly and helpful. My wife was slightly disappointed that the shipwrecks were all planted by Atlantis, but there were many more varieties of sealife than I expected. Overall, we all enjoyed it. This was our most expensive activity, but I am glad that we included it. We were on the larger, newer sub and the viewing ports were better than anticipated. My kids, ages 6 to 16, all enjoyed it.

Atlantis on Ohau
Reviewed by: William, 2010/03/21My wife and I went on the Atlantis sub on Ohau. Transportation was on time. Your riding a boat out to the Sub. The sub doesn't come to the docks. We saw 3 sea turtles, 1 shark, 1 eel and countless diffierent types of fish. There is a depth guage up from by the captain. I'm not sure how deep it got but the deepest I saw was 84 feet. Temp was comfortable. It didn't rock like a boat. Very stable. The pressure didn't compress it. The ears never poped like an airplane. Very nice ride. I recemend it. Turn your flash off on the camera. Glass is so thick that even angle PICs gives flash back. Just turn off the flash.

Great Time in and Under the Water
Reviewed by: Ron Daisy, 2010/02/15My wife and I had a wonderful time , especially at the sub tour. Our guide was great! Wish we could have seen a few things out of the ordinary, such as mantas or turtles, but still some incredible sights to see!!!

atlantis submarine
Reviewed by: Mr. Anonymous, 2008/12/12it was ok younger kids and family would enjoy it. it was intersting because you see things you wouldn't normally see such as ship wrecks and plane wrecks. seeing aquatic life was pretty cool we saw a female sea turtle the narrator said that was rare. the most annoying was the dual english and japneese narration on a sub that was all english speaking passengers.

Amazingly Unique Ezperience.
Reviewed by: Ambre, 2007/11/22This submarine dive was awesome. It goes down about 120 feet and makes its way through two shipwrecks, a plane crash, U of Hawaii's artificial coral project... Not to mention all the fish and wildlife you see. It was a once-in-a-lifetime experience! However, do pay attention to the languages set for the time you go. But if you happen to get on a Japanese tour, there are headphones with English.

First time on a submarine
Reviewed by: Aussie Sub Enthusiast, 2007/10/04I had big expectations of this submarine ride and I was proven right. Equipment is well maintained. Staff are friendly and very competant, with great line handling and people skills. The experience was relaxing, entertaning and fun as well as having interest in more technical terms for underwater enthusiasts. The gift shop has some good value souveniers too.

Atlantis Submarine
Reviewed by: Brenda, 2007/08/09The seating on the submarine is a little tight. Some seats are in between two windows which makes it a little harder to see out. On the submarine they show you how deep you are, that was cool. The sunken ships, airplanes and other structures are the most exciting, that is were most of the fish canbe seen. We saw 4 sea turtles just hanging out on the structures.
