Outrigger Canoe Surfing with Waikiki Beach Boys

Great !!

Reviewed by: Bill

Excellent staff and outrigger crew.

Our group planned our visit for two years before we could make the trip. The outrigger canoe was on my bucket list every planning session.

Thanks for the wonderful rides.

Star of Honolulu Waikiki Sunset Cruise - Steak and Lobster Dinner & Hula Show

Good service, bad food.

Reviewed by: Tourist

The entertainment was so much fun to watch and the staff and service was great. We were sitting elbow to elbow with the tables next to us which was very uncomfortable. Way too crowded. Way way way too crowded. Another huge disappointment was the food. Overall I would not recommend for the price. Maybe if you can find a discounted ticket it would be worth it.

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

Kool Kayak Experience!

Reviewed by: May

My boyfriend and I purchased the kayak/snorkeling experience and it was quite the memory! Everyone was great helping us get set up and guiding us! When we went out and kayaked we saw so many different fishes during our snorkeling adventure! The crazy part was that it started raining while we were far out and snorkeling. Instead of kayaking back we continued to snorkel until the rain stopped! For the price and experience it was totally worth it!

Also I recommend purchasing the 4 hour experience because I don’t think you will be out for the whole 8 hours even tho it costs just a little bit more! We were our a max of 2 hours!

If you’re wondering on whether or not to purchase think no more! Overall it was an amazing experience and I highly recommend it! Also booking this package will prepare you for everything vs booking on the actual business site since this package has a dry bag, snorkeling gear, and the anchor (this will keep your kayak in place while you’re snorkeling). Hope this helps and you make great memories from this experience!

Awesome experience, would absolutely recommend. The surf was a little rough and the boats were running behind schedule, but the office was willing to accommodate me and put me on an earlier boat so I didn’t have to wait. The crew was amazing and made the experience memorable. They offer photos for a reasonable price so you can just focus on enjoying your time.

Kaneohe Bay Sandbar Ocean Sports Adventure with Snorkel, Kayak, SUP & Live Music

Satisfying!!!

Reviewed by: DaNaMeyRie Roque

The place is really nice and the boat is clean and safe. The staff are very accommodating and friendly, they gave us detailed instructions and safety reminders. They guided us until we completed our activities.
Me and my 3 girls get there 15 minutes before 9am (few minutes window for us to get the free parking spot and signed the waiver forms).
We reserved the morning all in package and it was satisfying and activities are worth the price.We purchased food at General Store and Deli which is next to the boat docking area. We waited for 4 more groups and the boat moved forward at 9:30am. The live music entertainers were great and they sang really well and made us felt comfortable through out our entire stay. (They have jars for the cash tips so bring some for them coz they deserved it).
The rest of the water activity crews were all friendly and remindful, specially Shyla. She made us felt satisfied with our banana boat and water tubing (flat float). (Follow her advises). Snorkeling was great and found different kinds of fishes. (Be careful not to get hurt from the corals, wear appropriate attire for protection). The kayak and paddle boat crews are very nice, they kept eye on everyone’s safety. We played volleyball but a bit windy so pick the good weather. There were water, orange juice and donuts with 3 different flavors and you can bring your own food and drinks (no glass containers or bottles allowed). It was fun and unforgettable. Thank you!

This was a nice boat and tour. We got to see one or two sea turtles. Honestly the water was kind of murky and you don't get to see colorful fish but you do see generic silver ones. We really liked that the drinks were included though and the staff were very helpful, informative and friendly!

Oahu Island Tour - North Shore, Turtle Watch, Kualoa Beach & Pineapple Farm

Oahu Island Experience Tour was wonderful!

Reviewed by: A R Mak

We found the Oahu Island Experience Tour on 29 Apr 22 to be very enjoyable. As always, the tour guide is critical to its success and Stephanie was terrific. She was pleasant, kind, and informative. The only issue – which I pointed out to her at our first stop – was that at times I had problems hearing her. She mentioned that she no longer was provided a microphone for her tours. As it got warmer in the afternoon, she turned up the air conditioner which made it noisier to the point I could barely hear her at all (although the van’s temperature was quite comfortable). To some extent, I was able to make up for it during stops often peppering her with questions which she patiently and knowledgably answered.

I thought the number of stops and venues were appropriate. My friend enjoyed the “non man-made” sites the best; specifically, all the beach venues. But I liked all the stops such as the Dole facility – I appreciate its significance to the area and it’s not often I have the opportunity to enjoy a pineapple float!

My only other “complaint” was it was advertised that the return to our hotel would be between 4pm and 4:30pm while our actual return time was 5:25 pm. I understand Hawaii’s pace is somewhat different, but as a mainlander with an evening tourist schedule to maintain, this would have been helpful to know. We hit significant traffic coming back from Dole, but it also appears we fell behind early in the tour for some reason. To Stephanie’s credit, we didn’t feel rushed to make up time or short us of any activities/sites; she delivered on all that was promised. But IF the typical return time is more often, say, 5pm to 5:30pm, I think the company should be more forthright on that point in its promotion of their tours.

My issue hearing the tour guide is the only matter which kept me from rating the adventure as “outstanding” -- hopefully this is an easy issue to resolve. Keep up the good work, and thanks!

Hello Alan,

Thank you for taking your time in writing us a review. I am glad you had a good time with Stephanie and was able to enjoy your pineapple float. We are sorry about the delay going back. Traffic in Hawaii can be rough at sometime and create delays especially with all the road construction going on. But thank you for your honest comments in which can help improve in many ways. I hope you enjoy the rest of your stay on Oahu.

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

Beautiful Reef, very windy day

Reviewed by: M. Graham

First off, the day turned out to be very windy and a little rainy and therefore want the best kayaking weather, but they did offer us a refund or reschedule. It was out last day and we didn’t have anything better to do so we stayed.
The guys getting our kayak and gear gave us some information about where to go and a little about the kayaks (hope to anchor them, out the heaviest in back), but nothing really about paddling or steering especially in the windy conditions. We had some idea, so it wasn’t too bad, but a little more direction would have been helpful.
Once on the water, it was choppy and a hard kayak, but we pushed through. It was hard to anchor in the sand because we had two anchors for three kayaks and the wind was too strong. We ended up tying all three to the two anchors and that worked. The spot was great to snorkel in (We went to horseshoe bend? It was the spot recommended for snorkeling). The coral was beautiful and on a clearer day would be gorgeous. There were fish, but it was harder to get close up to see them with life jackets on. We did see a giant fish and a huge turtle walk right under me. It was pretty cool.
A little more guidance on the kayaks and ensuring everyone has tips on paddling in currents and waves and’s provide defogger for the snorkeling and it would be great. Thank you!

My boyfriend and I booked this ATV tour with the intention of just having fun and getting dirty, but it turned out to be so much more than that! Our tour guide, Kioke, was exceptional! He has such a welcoming demeanor and made our trip so much fun! He was very knowledgeable about Hawaii and how the lands came about. We truly think he's a natural when it comes to his line of work! We really enjoyed every minute of our trip and were excited to hear of different types of tours that could be added in the future! If we come back to Oahu, we will make sure to come visit Kioke on the north shore again!

Oahu Island Tour - North Shore, Turtle Watch, Kualoa Beach & Pineapple Farm

Authentic, memorable and delicious experience!

Reviewed by: Rana

Our excellent tour guide Jonah-guru of all things Oahu-picked us up from our Wakiki hotel
*Malasada from a little truck (custard if you're a traditionalist, or chocolate if you're a chocoholic)
*Diamond head (crater), you can see some of the trails and scenic look out point. Aina Haina and Portlock areas have higher end real estate.
*Koko head crater where you can still see the old railway trail (built by the military-steep!)
*The prettiest (in my humble opinion) lookout point is Halona Blowhole, overlooking the lava tube that creates this lovely effect. Bonus: small secluded, pristine and one of the most filmed beaches: Halona Beach (aka Eternity Beach!)
*Sandy Beach, and the lighthouse at the end of Makapuu Point lighthouse Trail.
*100's of plumeria trees in the groves at Koko Crater Botanical Garden, with a nearby ranch for horses!
*Manana Island Seabird Sanctuary (Rabbit Island, lovely profile at an angle)
*Waimanalo Beach (home to some celebrities, careful with all the road construction-expect delays!)
*Inland, you see Olamana Trail (3 challenging peaks for hiking)
*Tropical Farms Macadamia Nuts Outlet store-sampling of coffee and nuts is definitely allowed!
*Filming preserve of Kualoa Ranch, as well other activities (such as horseback riding, and ziplining)
*Outline of Chinaman's Hat (equally beautiful in real life)
FOODIE ALERT: Kahuku Sugar Mill is THE highlight of the day! Food Truck Heaven and I wish I could eat my way through here. I recommend garlic shrimp with reaper sauce, and Ry's Poke on salad. Dessert overload, and dont forget the Kuilima Farm-Fruit Stand.
*Sunset Beach for surfing contests
*Shark's Cove and Pupukea with tide pools
*Haleiwa village and Haleiwa Beach, on a sunny and clear day, you can see the turtles at the shore.
*Dole Plantation- everything pineapple rules
Heading back, can't help but think I'd absolutely repeat this journey! Mahalo for our first exhilarating and family friendly Oahu Island Experience!!

Hello Rana,

Thank you for the review. I am glad you had a good time with the family. We did a lot of touristing that day. I would love to take you around the island again if you ever get the chance to visit the Islands. The Garlic shrimp from Da Bald Guy is making me hungry now. I hope you had a great time in Hawaii and hope to see you guys one day again.
