JURASSIC VALLEY!

Posted on: 2022/09/29

Jurassic Valley. Kualoa Ranch is GORGEOUS. We did both the zipline and the e-bike in the same day. Loved the zipline! All ziplines were side-by-side so we could take photos/video of each other the entire time. There's a bit of short walks/hikes between some of the zipline platforms but nothing too extensive.

I would recommend bringing a GoPro with a wrist strap + carabiner so you can clip it onto your zipline harness and not worry about accidentally dropping or breaking your phone.

Great 1/2 day

Posted on: 2022/09/29

This tour was a blast! We had previously done the ATV Raptor and this follows a similar route. I really liked how QUIET the electric bikes were. It was stunning being inside this 4,000 acre area and seeing all the sights but not having to hear a super loud roar of the ATVs. We did the "Novice" tour which was 2-hours and had plenty of stops at the movie site sets too to take photos.

Overall, great tour! Our tour guide was also really knowledgeable and friendly.

Just outside Waikiki, way less crowded

Posted on: 2022/09/29

This sunset sail is outside of Waikiki. We loved the 2-hour cruise and opted for the open-bar option. The catamaran was pretty spacious and is a docked catamaran (walk right from the pier to the boat) instead of a beach catamaran like many of the Waikiki ones. The crew was really friendly. Would recommend getting the souvenir cup! It comes with a lid so you don't spill your drink when it gets a little windy and makes a fun souvenir.

The 8am morning sail is worth it!

Posted on: 2022/09/29

Yes, it's early. But, we LOVED the early sail. Less boats on the water and calmer ocean conditions. If you're looking for a unique cultural experience, this is it. We did the morning cruise and were the only 2 guests on the boat which was really cool. The boat limits capacity to 6-guests. As a local resident, I really liked how the two main hosts of the cultural experience and the Captain were Kamehameha graduates. This boat also offers midday cruises and sunset. Overall, the morning sail was calm and one of the truly unique sails here on Oahu.

Volcanoes and Waterfalls!

Posted on: 2022/09/29

Great way to see a lot in 1 day! We flew over from Oahu to Big Island and spent the entire day learning about Volcanoes National Park. Akaka Falls was gorgeous too!

We did the land tour and helicopter combo. Unfortunately, the helicopter tour cancelled because of weather. We joined the rest of the group who was doing the land-only option and saw a few really cool spots including Liliuokalani Gardens and other parts of Hilo town. I wore comfortable shoes (running shoes) and am glad I did because we did quite a bit of walking.

This place is a gem!!

Posted on: 2022/09/29

This place is a gem!! Our massage therapists were amazing. We did the 90-minute option and it was pure heaven. I was so relaxed that I felt like a pile of jello afterwards.

This spot is nestled in the Imperial hotel on the 2nd floor. We saw the elevators and tried to go up but realized we needed key access. When we stopped by front desk to ask, we were then abruptly told that only hotel guests were allowed to use those elevators - and that was the end of the conversation. It was only after I said that I was looking for the spa that I was directed another way to go up. This, of course, was not a reflection on the spa at all.

The spa itself was great and I am definitely going to go again!!

  • Right in the middle of Waikiki


So glad there was a covered area from the rain!

Posted on: 2022/09/29

Tasty buffet dinner! The food was DELICIOUS. I really liked the variety of food - and dessert options! While I'm not vegetarian, I did notice there were a few vegetarian options - including the fried rice (my favorite). There was some hula dancing for the first part of the dinner and we could join in for hula lessons. I liked that this was an outdoor dinner BUT there was a covered tent above us in case of any rain.

And, it did end up raining. Lucky for us, the covered tent kept us nice and dry. Then, we headed inside to the indoor theater where we saw the Vegas-style impersonators for Elvis, Michael Jackson, and a local performer.

10 out of 10

Posted on: 2022/09/29

I had tried to go on this tour previously for the flight school but it cancelled. This time, we opted for the scenic flight. The experience was pretty cool - and really immersive especially if you have an interest in aviation.

It was really rainy and we had called a couple times on the way to the airport to see if the flight was going out. The cloud cover was pretty low on the northeast side so a lot of the mountain view was obstructed. Overall, pretty cool tour but wish the weather cooperated with us!

Would go again for the flight school option!

Sunset + City lights + Fireworks

Posted on: 2022/09/29

LOVED this catamaran! I had been on this same catamaran previously for their Turtle Canyon snorkel cruise so I knew I would like the boat. I liked that the boat check-in was here in Waikiki at the Hilton Village making it super convenient. This saves some transit time from going to some of the farther harbors (i.e. Kewalo Basin Harbor, Honolulu Harbor, etc.). We spent the best day just hanging out at the beach then just walked over to the Port Hilton kiosk to check-in.

I also liked the later departure time than most other sunset cruises so we could have a full beach day and still have time to hop on the catamaran. The dinner was a smaller portion prepackaged & more like appetizers than a full-on dinner. The drinks were tasty & buying more beyond the 2 included was $2/each - not a bad bargain. Since we were on the Hilton's pier, we were super close to the fireworks and were coming into the Port Hilton just as the fireworks were going off.

If you get cold easily, I would recommend packing a windbreaker or light sweater. It doesn't get cold here but it does get VERY BREEZY on the water at night once the sun goes down. I had a super light windbreaker which I didn't actually have to even use until about 1.5 hours into the cruise.

Overall, great cruise! So much fun!

  • Gorgeous view from the water!


Do the EARLY morning tour, it's worth waking up early!

Posted on: 2022/09/29

Sharks!! Yes...SHARKS. And yes, you CAN see them from the boat. It's wild to see such majestic creatures in their natural habitat. You go a few miles offshore for this trip so it does get choppy. We did an early morning tour which has calmer ocean conditions than the later tours. And I am so glad we did! We only had a super light breakfast before going out (think a bit of fruit, light bites only).
