Kaneohe Bay Kayak & Snorkel Self-Guided Tour [Tour Not Available]

Ask in advance about Portuguese Man 'O War

Reviewed by: judyg

I think this rental may be great if someone in your party is familiar with kayaking in Kaneohe Bay, because a guide does not go out with you. Also, we were snorkeling in one of the spots designated on the map we were given and swam right into a group of Portuguese Man 'O War just past the reef. We were stung pretty badly and had to cut our excursion short. We weren't warned about this in advance and saw other folks going out to potentially the same location without warning.

Reply from activity provider

Aloha. I'm sorry to hear that you got stung by Man o War. I know they are a pain. Unfortunately, we cannot predict where they will be any more than we can predict where any other marine life would be. Actually, it's way easier to predict where other kinds of marine life may be, but the Man o War can be anywhere. They just drift with the current. People actually being stung is very rare, so I'm sorry to hear you had the misfortune of coming across one. But I do hope it was clearly advertised that this is an unguided rental and not a guided tour of any kind. Thank you. Hope to see you again, this time with no Man o War encounters.

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

Worth the work!

Reviewed by: Kim H

Ty was very patient and informative. We had a great time. The falls are definitely not a secret, got very crowded, I suggest taking the earliest tour possible. I would absolutely do this again!

Reply from activity provider

Aloha Kim,

When we pioneered this tour to the Falls we called it the Secret Falls.

Victim of our own success...it quickly became the best known secret. Now we call it the Sacred Falls and inspite its popularity, as you observed and learned, it is still a terrific way to spend the day.

Thanks for sharing and for 5 star review and photo

Stay paddling and hiking.

A hui hou,

Micco

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

Not as Advertised

Reviewed by: Mike

We thought we were booking a turtle snorkel it turns out it was a water sports trip. The boat is in terrible condition. Needs maintenance. When we got to where we we’re going it was a free for all. No coordination. They immediately launched kayaks, paddle boards and a floating trampoline from the stern. At the same time they lowered a water slid from the bow. They made no effort to separate the snorkelers from the kayaks and paddle boards. We wanted to snorkel, but after getting hit in the head 4 times by kayaks and paddle boards we exited the water and waited to return to the harbor. We personally observed several snorkelers get landed upon by people using the water slide. When we went to leave they did not do a head count to make sure everyone was back on board. We have scuba dived and snorkeled from Morea, Guam, Bahamas and Cayman Islands, and we never experienced a trip where they combined water sports such as these with snorkelers. Very dangerous.

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

Ok parasailing experience, not great staff

Reviewed by: Allie

Our experience was ok..we were greeted by a cranky woman at the desk she mentioned our boat would arrive soon, our reservation was for 11am and we didn't end up boarding the boat until approximately 11:20. The crew on the boat was rude, we brought our gopro to film and it was about to die so we politely asked if we could go next so we could get footage of us in the air..they made a big deal of it and told us no even though the people who were up "next" didnt mind. I will say parasailing experience was a lot of fun! Just beware they ask you if you want to be dipped into the water, the couple before us stated they DID NOT want to be dipped but the crew said to us that they have a "special dip" for people who say no and proceeded to dip them into the water multiple times.

West Maui Shore Scuba Diving Tour for Certified Divers - Extended Horizons

Outstanding

Reviewed by: Pooja

I am so thrilled to post this review! I had an amazing time with Ema. She was soooo patient with me! Honestly, being a beginner, I panicked when I went underwater the first time. But Ema was super attentive, and immediately helped me out! I calmed myself, went inside, and enjoyed it thoroughly. I don't think anyone could have taught me better than her!
P.S. I don't know swimming, but I not only survived but enjoyed it!
I think everyone can, but provided you follow the instructions and let the instructor know about your discomfort at the right time.

Parasail Hawaii Tour & Jet Ski Ride Watersports Adventure Combo at Maunalua Bay

My son loved it!

Reviewed by: Keyanta

I sent my 16 year old son to Honolulu with his grandmother. I purchased the jet ski, parasail package online. I called to confirm that he didn’t need a partner to parasail. A few of the parasail tours would not let him do the activity without purchasing two packages. This tour stated that I could purchase one parasail and they would match him with someone on the day of. They kept their word!!

I was also able to buy an upgraded jet ski so that he could ride alone. That was excellent. He had so much fun on the jet skis.

I would definitely recommend.

Lots of activities and fun

Reviewed by: Ulises

You have to get the deluxe package though. The slide is lots of fun. Jumping off the second story. Kayaking, paddle board.
Lots to do beside the snorkeling.
The snorkeling can be hit and miss depending on current and boat position. Make sure you ask the crew where the reef is located. Otherwise it will be hard to see any marine life.

By the time your arms might be getting tired from paddling you are hitting the trail and working the legs to get to the falls.
