We had a great time on this tour. We saw a little bit of everything. Rongo, our guide, was so much fun, and so knowledgable. He had so much personal knowledge of the island we often felt like we were somehow being driven around by an old friend who wanted to 'show us around'. Rongo was just a great, great guide. We had fun. We had time to take pictures anywhere we stopped, never felt rushed or hurried. Loved everything we saw and felt like we got a very complete 'view' of the island as well as it's history and all of the things that made 'Oahu'....Oahu. We took this tour our second day in Oahu in case we stumbled across something we would want to spend more time investigating later. We're glad we did. Rongo was also willing to give us tips on great places to eat, or grab a drink. We really had fun!

I could not go in the cage as the mask interfered with my dentures but as it was my grandaughter's birthday gift...it was fun to watch her and I could see lots of sharks from the boat (even though it was very rough water).

I booked the lunch ride for myself and Daughter in June of 2007. I have to commend the Gunstock Ranch, we had such a wonderful time with our 2 tour guides and saw the beautiful sights of Oahu from the bottom to the top. Were we found seashells on the very top of the mountain and mongoose along the path to get there. The Lunch and the company the tour forward will last us forever until we can get back again to do it all over, I would not hesitate to recommend this extremely enjoyable activity. If you ever need a recommendation please let me know.

Our tour driver was excellent. Garfield was energetic, informative, polite, and entertaining. We learned lots of things from him and had a great time.
Thanks, Gar - we really appreciated your care of us while touring Oah'u. You certainly made our day.

The dive was awesome. We had to reschedule due to bad weather, but I didn't mind because I appreciated the captain canceling the trip instead of taking me out for a bad trip. The experience was great, it made my time in Hawaii totally worth it. I would recommend this trip and this group to everyone. It's the best trip you can go on in the islands.

This was an awesome experience. You can't get any closer than this to live sharkes in the oceans. I could have reached out and touch them - but highly discouraged to do so.
This is an awesome experience and a great way to view sharks in thier own natural environment. Very graceful and peaceful to watch.

this is definitely not for the faint of heart! Although sharks do NOT like to eat humans (as it is commonly believed)! It is very exhilarating to watch them all around you. We would recommend it to anyone looking to have the experience of their lives!

This was a great whale watch. Saw 5 whales jumping out of the water, 4 others swimming near the boat and a mother nursing a baby whale just to our left.
Very enjoyable.

I cannot stress enough how fun and exciting this activity was! I went on the early morning boat out to see sharks on a rainy, gray morning and was THRILLED to see sharks from the boat before ever getting in the water. BIG ones. SCARY ones. But I got in the cage anyway and was then floated out behind the boat with other shark fans. The sharks swam all around the cage the entire time - so close I could reach out and touch them if I dared. I took all my underwater pictures with my disposable camera in about 3 minutes! This was just an incredible experience, which I would love to do again. It was nice to be underwater with them (snorkeling) where you could watch them so closely, although you don't have to get in the cage if you don't want to - you can see them from the boat. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

This was by far the best snorkeling trip my husband and I have ever gone on, partly because of luck, but also because of the knowledgeable crew. When we got on the boat we were informed that we could go to a reef and snorkel or we could swim with dolphins. Apparently the crew was informed that there were an unusual number of dolphins in a small area that day. Everyone agreed on dolphins. We swam with so many dolphins - it was useless to even try to count them. The crew was fun and laid back which made it an even more pleasant experience. Will definately go again if given the opportunity!

We had a family of 17 on this tour (all ages) and everyday we kept discussing things we had learned on the tour. Even at the airport we kept talking about how great it was to have done this the first day, because we could then make better decisons about the rest of our trip.

Wow, wow and wow!!!! This was a truely amazing experience. To be that close to sharks in the water, to look them in the eye and feel their distain...... what a feeling. For anyone thinking of doing this trip, I seriously recommend doing the 7am dive, especially if you're going while the Tradewinds are still blowing. It was a little rough when we were out there and it would have been much worse later in the day. Also, if you've never snorkelled before, buy yourself a mask and practice for a couple of days beforehand, its not at easy as it looks. You'll get much more out of it if you know what you're doing with your mask and snorkel.

It is unfortunate that sharks have gotten the label of being mindless eating machines that attack anything that twitches in the water. I was able to experience first hand just how wrong this stereotype actually is.
The moment we arrived, sharks began to make there way to us. The regulars, the Sandbar Sharks, are attracted to the sound of the boat engine and quickly swam up to say hi!, but then an unexpected visitor decided to drop by. My jaw literally dropped when I saw a HUGE tiger shark circling the boat. Then another came by...then ANOTHER! We were lucky since Tiger Sharks are fairly rare.
As the first four made there way into the shark cage, the remaining four, including me, waited on board and watched the sharks from the surface. These creatures just circled the cage and boat and at times a Tiger Shark would pop his head out of the water to munch on some fish. This shark could have easily bitten the crew member, but all he (she?) did was nibble and go.
If anything, it

We took the catamaran trip to whale watch on the north shore of oahu and it did live up to it's promise. We saw not only whales but sharks and a large sea turtle. The crew was great, seems like a family business. We took the trip to celebrate my mom's birthday and let's just say....she is still talking about it!!

男友達8名で参加してきました。
ピックアップについては、遠くから来られて、別の参加者の方も順番にピックアップをしてくるのですが、20分ほど遅れてピックアップされました。少々不安になりましたが車にサメのデザインがされていたのですぐに発見できました。
車に乗って現地に着き、外国人の参加者の方も含めて20名程度でボートに乗って沖にでます。
かなり豪快に走って、水しぶきが滝のように振ってきて気持ちいい!!
ポイントに着くと、檻と船を接続して順番に6名づつでダイブしました。檻の半分くらいはプラスチックで覆われているのですが、下半分は檻のままなので、スリルがあって楽しかったです!!間近でサメの大群に接近できテンションはMAX!!とても貴重な体験となりました。
ただし、日本人はほぼ船酔いをしていましたので、酔い止め薬は必須ですよ。

生まれて初めてのスカイダイビングで、好奇心と恐怖が
入り混じった感じで参加しました。
朝7時ごろに集合場所から出発で1時間ほどで
ダイビングする場所に到着しました。
その道中、スカイダイビングする前の
免責に関するサインを何度も行います。
(何かあっても訴えません的な内容)
事務所に到着するとビデオ観賞形式でスカイダイビングを
行うに当たっての約束事みたいなものを10分程度見ます。
(ここでも訴えません的な内容のビデオ)
また、実際にダイブするまでの一連の流れに関して
説明があります。
ビデオ鑑賞後、しばらくの間、待機していると
ベルトを装着し、実際に一緒にダイブする
インストラクターさんから簡単ですが直接指導が
あります。
(ダイブ前→地面着地までの流れについて)
あとは実際にダイブするだけですが、ダイブしてからは
恐怖感もなくなり、一気にはじけた感じでした。
ちょっとでも興味があれば是非ダイブした方が良いです。
自分は、ビデオ撮影をお願いしましたが
ダイブ前の意気込みからダイブ後の感想までのダイジェストで
金額は高いと思いましたが、記念になるので買ってよかったです。

旦那さんがやりたいということで、スカイダイビングをすることになりました!待ち時間も多いと聞いていたので、せっかくならばと一緒にスカイダイビングをすることにしました。
すっごく恐かったのですが、スカイダイビングして良かったです!
日本に帰ってきて、スカイダイビングの話をすると土産話のネタにもなって♪話しているうちに、興奮がよみがえることもしばしばありました!
コストは、他のアクティビティに比べれば高いかもしれませんが、体験した価値のある値段でした!
そして、最初に書いた待ち時間ですが、さほど気になりませんでした!私は9時でお願いしたのですが、ホテルに戻ってきた時間は、
14時位でした!それから、またお買い物に出掛けられました。
一緒にとぶインストラクターの方へのチップは、必要と聞いていたのですが、写真や映像をお願いする場合は、撮影してくれるインストラクターにもチップが必要になります。そして、送り迎えしてくれるドライバーにもチップが必要です!
習慣の違いなので仕方ないですね。
現地に行くと飲み物が少し売っていますが、飲み物や食べ物を少し持参すると良いかなっと思いました!
でも、大満足です!
