Royal Star Grand Circle Island Tour - East Oahu , Pali Lookout, Haleiwa & Dole

Circle island tour

Reviewed by: Namratha , 2021/04/10

The tour was great! Our driver was very informative and attentive and we enjoyed it. He made us feel like we experienced hawaiian culture through his eyes. We saw a lot of beautiful sights and will definitely do it again.

Royal Star Grand Circle Island Tour - East Oahu , Pali Lookout, Haleiwa & Dole

Amazing way to see Oahu and learn more about its history and culture

Reviewed by: Shauna, 2021/04/08

This was an amazing tour!! Our your guide Lola was great. She was friendly, understanding and knowledgeable. Beyond the sights we saw she was able to give us a glimpse into the real Oahu. She had great tips for our lunch stop and made sure we got the most out of our tour. This tour would be great for families, couples single travelers really announce that wants to see the island in comfort. The tour pickup spot was close to our hotel so that made it easy for us.

North Shore Hiking Tours from Haleiwa with Expert Local Guide & Lunch

Eco hike

Reviewed by: Wayne B, 2021/04/04

Last minute booking are we are extremely happy with the hike. Randy was an awesome tour guide and provided a lot of interesting information. Lunch provided was an organic shrimp or chicken roll up that was very tasty and the perfect size... the swim in the river was refreshing...seeing the forest with strawberry quads trees and ginger root everywhere... Tahiti prawns in the river nd wild pigs in the forest. The 4x4 rig was a great ride on both pavement and muddy roads... a must do trip

Waimea Valley Toa Luau & Free Admission Entry Ticket to Waimea Falls

Going back!

Reviewed by: Heidi, 2021/04/03

We were initially skeptical of going to any Luau after a previous experience we had on Maui. We were concerned it would feel like a crowded dinner show instead of an authentic experience. We live on Oahu and had guests who really wanted to go. Tao Luau appealed to us because Waimea Falls is a beautiful setting away from resorts, and it has way less occupancy for the event then the others (200 compared to up to 800!). We were pleasantly surprised at the warm welcome, hands on experience, delicious dinner, and stunning show. We have visitors coming in a week, and more in the summer, and have already booked for two more times!

Comments from activity operators

Aloha Heidi, and mahalo for your review! We are pleased to know you had a great experience at the luau, which was initially not what you thought it was. We are glad we have changed your mind about activities like ours. We have planned everything about the luau having one goal - make it a great experience for everybody. Come see us again when you can :-) Mahalo!

Royal Star Grand Circle Island Tour - East Oahu , Pali Lookout, Haleiwa & Dole

Must Do!

Reviewed by: Marleen, 2021/04/02

Initially we planned to rent a car and explore the island from Waikiki, driving to different areas multiple days. But, corona (and Hawaii reopening) caused a shortage on rental cars apparently and so we were not able to rent a car after all. Then we found this tour and we couldn’t be any happier with it! It not only allowed us to see the island of Oahu, we also got all the extra information that we wouldn’t have gotten without Lola, our driver and tour guide. We stopped at the blowhole, the Pali of Nu’uana viewpoint, a macadamia plantation, the valley of temples, Haleiwa, dole plantation, and passed the north shore beaches and many other beautiful sights, also Honolulu. After the team we even regret more than we couldn’t go again and spend some time at the places suggested by Lola. Therefore, my recommendation is to do this tour first (at the beginning of your vacation) and then try to go to the places you liked the most. And Lola was just hands down the best tour guide. She brought water and Poi Donuts —> delicious!! And she was so energetic in telling us all the stories about the island and what she used to do or used to go as a kid. This whole experience felt more like connecting to Oahu than anything else we did during our time there. Highly recommended!

Kualoa Ranch Horseback Riding & Jurassic Valley Movie Sites Tour

Amazing horse ride!!!

Reviewed by: Tina Hughes, 2021/03/28

This was by far my favorite activity and our girls loved it. It was so beautiful. There are also so many different movies filmed here and that was cool to see. They also have a super reasonable cafe with excellent food. Bacon and eggs for only $10 and ACAI bowls were to die for!!! They do weigh you right before you get on the horse and are strict about the weight. Could have done this several times.

I had the best time on my shark tour! The guys were super helpful and informative. The weather was great and I felt very safe the entire time, even inside the cage with the Sharks.

Royal Star Grand Circle Island Tour - East Oahu , Pali Lookout, Haleiwa & Dole

The best tour!

Reviewed by: Kasey T , 2021/03/18

Wow! I am so impressed by this tour. When my family originally planned this, I thought it would be boring. However, I was blown away. Our tour guide, Lola, was SO amazing. She was so knowledgeable and personable. I am shocked at how much I learned from her. She made the day go by so fast- I wasn’t even ready to leave. She even brought us Poi donuts. It was so cool to eat from the local restaurants- I never would have ventured to do this on my own.
This is a must! Don’t even hesitate. It’s worth every penny.

Oahu North Shore Beach Horseback Riding Experience - Daytime Tours

Must experience

Reviewed by: Lai from California , 2021/03/08

It was really a great experience, regardless of the rain. HoHo was my horse— described as the Regina George of the group! The staff were friendly. Wish there was a way to communicate with our leader, Cassie a bit better while on the trail. It would be nice to have stopped in one more place for pictures and if the spot we do stop at could have a block so people could get off, that would be cool! It would also be cool to learn a little about the plants we see, the area we are in, more information about POLO too.
The pace was good although a little instruction on how to sit in the seat (where to tighten to lessen the inside leg pain) would be helpful too.
I did not see and was not ensured of a method for cleaning the helmets. Maybe offering some kind of bandana for customers to buy so people who are weary of lice or anything can feel more comfortable.
We really learned the meaning of learning how to ride “it”.

It was really great, nice view of the sharks, enough time, just enough people in the cage, perfect, I will just suggest that the guides are a little more excited about the tour itself, maybe they were not excited because it was 1 p.m.

Waimea Valley Toa Luau & Free Admission Entry Ticket to Waimea Falls

Amazing, authentic experience!

Reviewed by: erkerk10, 2021/01/05

I lived on Oahu, and have attended many of the popular, industrial, Luaus on the island. Due to Covid, most were closed, so we went with Waimea Valley Toa Luau. I can say it was by far the most intermate, and authentic luau I've ever been to. The "cheaper" tickets still have a great, elevated view. The members/staff/performers are all family and the demonstrations they have are authentic to their history. With the admission to Waimea valley included, you can easily make an entire day of exploring the valley and concluding with the Luau. It truly felt like a family cookout (which is the true spirit of a luau) and not an assembly line of people and mediocre food (as most other industrial luaus are). Homemade coco drink, and no less than 5 fire throwers at once, put Waimea Valley Toa Luau over the top for me. Also, not a coconut bra in sight...

Comments from activity operators

Aloha and mahalo for your review! We are very glad to know you had a marvelous time at the luau! We hope to see you again ^_^

My husband and I had never been ziplining before, but we were really excited to try this out. The guides are SO awesome! They explain everything before you do it and they make you laugh along the way. They have "challenges" throughout the tour and they are such a blast! At the end of the tour they teach you how to do some tricks, which was SO cool! My husband Spiderman'ed and I hung upside down, spread eagle lol.
Thank you guys for such an incredible trip! We bought shirts and some stickers that are currently hanging on our fridge :)

Hawaii Shark Encounters - North Shore Shark Cage Diving Tour from Haleiwa

WOW!!!!

Reviewed by: AZfitmama, 2021/01/02

WOW!!! What an INCREDIBLE experience!!!!!
My husband and I are both scared of sharks and he is very claustrophobic. We were worried how he would do in the cage. This was our FAVORITE part of Hawaii! As soon as you get to the spot, you immediately see sharks. They knew what we were doing there and they remember that the guides feed them, so they were all over the boat. Such a gnarly thing to see fins coming up right next to the boat!
There were eight of us on the boat and we were able to split into two groups so we could all have space and time inside the cage. It was SO COOL!! There were 8-12 Galapagos sharks swimming right next to us. They come so close to the cage, you could easily reach out and touch them, but do NOT do that lol.
We could not believe how much we loved this adventure. We recommend to everyone!!

Shark Diving Hawaii - Cageless Pelagic Snorkel Tour with FREE Photos & Videos

I couldn't imagine it any better.

Reviewed by: Flo, 2020/12/30

I couldn't imagine it being any more amazing. The tour guides were all really professional and a safety diver made sure we didn't accidentally swim into the boat. We got very good diving glasses as well. The sharks themselves were really calm and didn't show any aggression at all and none of us got afraid once they did show up. If i had to describe it, I'd say it feels a bit like standing in front of a cow, a horse, or a dolphin. You know they are multiple times as big as you and could easily kill you, but there is no danger as they simply don't behave like that. And the same goes for the sharks.

My husband and i had an amazing experience. Our group guides (Zeke, Ellie, Emma) are the best, very supportive and encouraging and fun. Going through the whole course was a challenge to conquer our different levels of fear and strength.

North Shore Clear Bottom Kayak Tour & Turtle Watch from Haleiwa Beach

The best tour in Hawaii!

Reviewed by: Nick & Bri, 2020/11/04

This tour was an absolute blast. Luckily, my girlfriend and I came to Hawaii the week after the state opened up following the Covid-19 restrictions, so there weren't many people on the island. Likewise, the tour only ended up being the two of us. Our tour guide (and owner of the tour company), Steve, was amazing. He led us through the waters and taught us both how to kayak. He even went out of his way and taught us how to paddleboard too! Also, he was very knowledgeable about Hawaii and the surrounding waters. Steve provided us with a lot of advice on what we should do/stay/eat during our stay. And to make it even better, we saw plenty of sea turtles and coral beneath our glass bottom kayak! On top of all this, Steve stayed with us a little while longer on the water to answer our questions and to talk more about Hawaii. All in all, the tour went above and beyond our expectations. The next time we go back to Hawaii, we will definitely book another tour with this company!

First experience

Reviewed by: Don/Mel , 2020/07/05

First time horseback riding and I can honestly say we had a wonderful experience. They made sure to have a safety demo in the beginning prior to jumping on to be sure everyone was safe and comfortable enough to ride. Nice peaceful scenery and the breeze off of the ocean made the horseback riding extremely relaxing. Towards the end of the tour, we also stopped to take some pics on the beach with the horses!! Our tour guide Becca was the BEST! Definitely will go back and make sure to request her as our tour guide again.
