Hawaii Submarine Scooter Adventure with Turtle Encounter & Snorkel Cruise

Underwater Scooter Experience

Reviewed by: Glenda G.

From the boat ride to the Underwater Scooter ride this was a fabulous outing. The scooters were so much fun for everyone. Our group of 4 ages ranged from 19 to 67 years old and we all enjoyed it. We highly recommend! We would definitely do this again. Very well organized.

  • Highly recommended.

Hawaii Parasailing Honolulu Adventure Ride - H2O Sports [600ft & 800ft lines]

A Must Do!

Reviewed by: Shani Freeman

There is no better way to capture the beauty of the island than with an aerial view--STUNNING!
The guys were extremely professional and helpful. I got a little sick due to the chopping of the water and the taxi ride in and they took very good care of me.
Can't wait to come back and do it again!!

MAHALO!

Wonderful time on and in the water

Reviewed by: Andrew Brown

Had a wonderful time from start to finish with our tour guide John. He kept the trip lively and made it something special with his knowledge of the islands and aquatic life. Captured some really amazing sights of the fish and turtles on what felt like an intimate excursion. Would highly recommend!

Beautiful sandbar!! Saw a sea turtle!

Reviewed by: Family of Five

Absolutely beautiful sandbar! Though we were too tired after going there and back, and could not go snorkeling at the other coral sites. Saw a sea turtle really up close at the sandbar and we were amazed. The sandbar was gorgeous and looked like paradise on earth.

E Sea Diver 5-in-1 Fun Cruise - Snorkel, Water Slide, Trampoline, Kayaks & SUP

Amazing crew but no sight of a fish

Reviewed by: Naomi

The crew was amazing but we did not see a single fish. The water was not clear, I could not even see people next to me. It was just swimming tour. That’s all. If you want to see snorkeling and see fishes, I suggest do either submarine or go the north shore to Shark’s Cove.

E Sea Diver 5-in-1 Fun Cruise - Snorkel, Water Slide, Trampoline, Kayaks & SUP

If your doing this for the snorkeling dont do it!!!

Reviewed by: Disappointed

I paid 93 for the snorkeling thinking it be something to remember.. but the only thing I’ll remember it the waist of money it was my whole family paid and it was a waist. Its a free for all you get trampled and just sucks in all honesty the people are nice and we meet some nice people on the boat but they sell you this amazing experience and its not, you cant see anything at all, if you want to paddle board or go down the slide even kayak this is the place for you but don't do it for the snorkeling it be a waist of money like it was for us … hope this helps another person not make the same mistake we did .

Hawaiian Parasailing Tour & Adventure from Waikiki Beach [800ft & 1000ft Lines]

Wonderful experience!

Reviewed by: Heather

Parasailing was amazing! We were a party of 8 including my 7 year old grandson. The experience was perfect for our family and our captain adjusted the ride appropriately for each group of our riders (some were gently dipped and others had a more thrilling experience). It was obvious our captain and crew knew what they were experienced. I recommend getting the pictures. We would definitely do again

Sacred Falls Adventure - Wailua River Kayak, Hike & Waterfall Swim

Kayaking Only

Reviewed by: Gina M.

We went on a 2 hour kayaking trip. Unfortunately, the hike/sacred falls was cancelled due to inclement weather. It was a bummer, but we know it was for our safety. However, it did hurt a little when we were seeing others continuing to go past the fork in the river. We did get a partial refund. After concluding our kayaking trip, our tour guide Tyler did point us to the Nounou trail to hike which was great. So we were able to fill more of our day on this hike with spectacular views!

Reply from activity provider

Aloha Gina,

Safety is no accident!

When in doubt we don't go out or up the North Fork that constricts and is more prone to flooding as consequence.

Having pioneered the tour we have safely been guiding folks to the falls for the last 37 years while other companies have lost clients in flood like conditions.

We love repeat business and believe "safety is no accident".

Glad to hear that Tyler was able to take curve and make it a plus.

Stay well and safe. Thanks for sharing.

A hui hou,

Micco

Snorkeling is so much fun!

Reviewed by: Tessie L

I am not a good swimmer and had never done snorkeling before. The crew was so great and was watching the poor swimmers and was always next to us giving instructions and reassurance. I felt so safe and before I realize it, I was able to swim and snorkel with confidence by myself. I had so much fun snorkeling and enjoying the fishes and nature under sea. It was definitely an amazing experience!

H2O Hawaii Watersports Adventure - Parasail, Jet Ski, Banana Boat & Bumper Tube

I still rate them a 10

Reviewed by: Sonya

Despite every communication showing “ Activity: Day on the Bay Combo - Parasail, Jet Ski, Banana Boat, or Bumper Tube” the actual voucher eliminated jet skiing.

When we checked in I was informed that my event didn’t include jet skiing, I objected, pulled out my voucher and sure enough that wording was omitted.

Well we ended up tubing, riding on a banana boat, and parasailing over Manaulua bay which was absolutely incredible. The water is gorgeous, and the surrounding homes simply beautiful.

Tubing is awesome; you’re holding on for dear life and it was such a blessing to share the thrill of the banana boat with my family.

At the end they’ll offer you incredible, up close, real-time pictures captured during each event so bring an extra $200.

I would definitely recommend this activity pack.

E Sea Diver 5-in-1 Fun Cruise - Snorkel, Water Slide, Trampoline, Kayaks & SUP

Turtle should not be in the title

Reviewed by: Alanna Owen

It says turtle in the title of what this excursion is. It says snorkeling in the title as well. All this was about was taking a bunch of water toys in the middle of the ocean and playing on them. While we were out there, I asked if we were going somewhere else to see the turtles and was told this is nature. Sometimes you see them , sometimes you won’t. Again, this was not about seeing sea turtles and the title needs to be changed. We paid $150 person to jump off side of boat, jump on trampoline, kayak/paddle board and TRY to snorkel in the middle of all this chaos. Tell it like it is and don’t be devious in the title. The crew was the only reason we have 3 stars and tipped on top of what we already paid. They were very nice. But this isn’t what it says it is. Don’t be fooled.

The Surf Bus North Shore Fun Tour - Snorkel, Bike, Kayak, SUP & Waimea Waterfall

Could be better

Reviewed by: Remy

First time taking the Surf Bus. Driver was on time. He was knowledgeable. Didn't like his attitude at first because he had a way of making you feel foolish but at the end, he turned out to be a nice guide. My family and I did the waterfall hike and kayaking. The waterfall hike was timed for three hours. It was a beautiful hike through Waimea Valley seeing tropical plants and birds. To my surprise, the waterfall was smaller than I thought. There were too many people swimming already and it was only 10am. My kids did not want to swim because of the amount of people in the water. Even after the hike, and the waterfall and even ate lunch at the cafe, three hours was too much. It could've been spent doing other activities. We went kayaking in the afternoon. My family enjoyed that even though we didn't see any turtles. We were disappointed that we couldn't walk to town and get shaved ice because the line was too long. All in all, my family had a decent time.

Honolulu X-Treme Parasailing Tour Adventure [700ft, 850ft or 1000ft Rides]

1st time Parasailing

Reviewed by: Michelle

This was my family’s first time in Hawaii and first time parasailing. Let me first say how the booking experience was amazing. The day of our parasail adventure we checked in at the booth. The young lady working that morning was so helpful and had great customer service. When I checked in she explained the 2 pieces of paperwork each adult had to sign. Her phone rang handled her business with the customer on the phone and then apologized and thanked me for being patient. Next she explained everything we needed to know, where we needed to wait etc. Check in process smooth and straight to the point. Then our boat arrives I forgot the young mans name but he was so awesome. Captain Mac I believe his name was, was also amazing. What to expect was clearly explained, directions clearly explained and a sense of humor made our first time parasailing all worth it. Definitely a memory that will not be forgotten. Book with Xtreme an experience you won’t forget !!!!
