JR Flex Rail Ticket: Tokyo to Kyoto Round-Trip Bullet Train Ticket & Coupon / Review Rebate Special / Standard Plan
Great Experience
I went with my family to Japan, total of 8 people. We visit Tokyo and Kyoto. I am very glad we decided to go from Tokyo to Kyoto by Bullet Train. After doing a lot of research I found the best deals through Veltra and the booking process was really easy. We redeemed the voucher at Tokyo station the day before our trip. If you are travelling with a large group, the process could take a little long. The staff is very polite and gives you maps and explains how to use the tickets and how to find the boarding location. It could be a little intimating to try to take train at a foreign country, however that a lot of signs in English all over the station. Dont be afraid about asking for directions and help, they have staff everywhere to help you. The train offers wifi, is spacious, comfortable, clean and it's always on time. It's open seating, so you can pick your seat upon boarding. They have bathrooms and they sell coffee and snacks during the trip. I recommend packing some snacks too. Kyoto is a wonderful city, lots of history, temples and great food. On my next trip to Japan I will book other tours with Veltra and I will try to go to Kyoto again.

Toa Luau at Waimea Valley (Add to your Bucket list)
I had a amazing time with Toa Luau, food, drinks & show are great. It's a very family oriented luau and the location is beautiful. The good thing about being far from Waikiki, is that you can skip the crowds from the other shows and get a more personal experience.
I really enjoyed the pre-luau activities, they let us be part of dinner preparation and we learned how to make some traditional Polynesian dishes. They let us peel taro, green banana, they showed us how make flower leis & how to use palm leafs to make headbands, baskets and hats. We played Polynesian games and had the chance to play some musical instruments too. Kids and adults were having so much fun! I believe this is the only luau where you can experience a Kava Cerimony, one of the most iconic cultural traditions in Fiji.
I've been to other luaus before, but this one felt different. I didn't feel as a tourist. The staff makes you feel like you are part of their family and that they are inviting you for a real party at their home, so it made the evening really special.
Another good thing is that it includes admission to Waimea Valley. We arrived earlier and were able to enjoy the botanical garden and of course, swim at the most famous waterfall on Oahu. There are changing rooms available at the park so you can get ready for the luau.
I recommend this luau for everyone who is looking for a real luau experience and wants to learn more about the beautiful Hawaiian & Polynesian culture. Absolutely loved it!

2-Hour Jurassic Valley Kualoa Ranch ATV Raptor Adventure Tour - Most Popular! / Single-Passenger ATV (2 Hours)
Best ATV Tour
The tour was amazing. Kualoa Ranch is an incredible beautiful place!
Before the tour starts you are required to complete a safety briefing, you will watch a short video with nice tips about how to operate the vehicles. Since it was my first time driving an ATV it was very helpful to watch the instructions.
We booked the 2-hour tour and at first i thought it would be too long, but it gave us enough time to appreciate all the sites without having to rush. The valley is so beautiful.. you feel like yo are at Jurassic Park. The guide was really nice, knowledgeable and professional and took the so many great pictures of our group. He was telling us all about all the movies and tv shows that were filmed at Kualoa ranch (Jurassic World, Jurassic Park, Lost, Hawaii Five-0, Godzilla, 50 first dates...)
We had an amazing day at Kualoa Ranch, it was the highlight of our trip!

Na Hoku Catamaran Diamond Head Happy Hour Sail with Drinks Included from Waikiki / Daytime Booze Cruise
Hands down, the best activity in Hawaii, so worthy!!!
We had the most fun time on the boat. The water of Waikiki can’t be explained. The staff was very friendly, as they say with a lot of “aloha spirit”. Great music and it’s open bar, you can’t go wrong with any of that. Music was on point, and the whales decided to give us a show as well. Hands down, the best activity in Hawaii, so worthy!!!

Kualoa Ranch Movie Sites Tour - Visit TV Shows & Hollywood Filming Locations / Movie Sites & Ranch Tour (1.5 hours)
Love it!
I went to one of the many Adventures at Kualoa Ranch with my grandson. I took him to the Hollywood Movie Site Tour and we love it! My grandson is 5 years old and he loves dinosaurs and was so excited to see the Jurassic Park movie site, and believe it or not he was so excited to see the sign that appears on the movie. Also, all that bones and of course the dinosaurs. He was so happy!!!
For me was much more then I expected, everything was so beautiful and the lady who was guiding us, I think her name is Fono, wow ... she was awesome!
Everything was so beautiful and we enjoyed it a lot! I highly recommend it!

2-Hour Jurassic Valley Kualoa Ranch ATV Raptor Adventure Tour - Most Popular! / Multi-Passenger ATV (1 Hour)
Great memories, tons of fun!
We had the most wonderful time yesterday at Kualoa Ranch! What a beautiful place, full of activities for all ages. My sister was visiting from Tennessee and we took her to the ATV Raptor Tour. We chose the one hour package, but trust us, one hour goes pretty fast, if you have the chance get the package for 2 hours, do it! It was absolutely unforgettable, the view, the sites, the adventure. The staff was very helpful and fun. When you come to Hawaii, make sure to hit Kualoa Ranch for the activities they offer!

Best birthday gift ever!
I love the ocean and swim with sharks in Hawaii was on my bucket list. To celebrate my 78th birthday, my daughter decided to take me on this amazing shark cage diving tour. What a great experience! We saw a lot of different species of sharks, they are amazing animals. The crew was really nice and made us feel safe during the entire process. Thank you HawaiiActivities.com for helping me during our booking process. This was the best birthday gift I could ask for!

Great show in Waikiki for kids.
The show was a very pleasant surprise. It's great to have another evening entertainment option for families in Honolulu (that is not a Luau). The musical has a lovely storytelling that brings together the best of Hawaii & Vegas in one show, you really feel like you are part of the wedding reception. It's fun, energetic, interactive, the food is really good and the artists are so talented.
Everybody was having a good time, specially the kids, they didn't want to leave the dance floor. I would say it's one of the most kid-friendly things to do in Waikiki! After dinner we were all dancing and singing like we were on a real party. It was great evening! I would highly recommend for everyone.

Best tour on the North Shore - Turtle Paradise
This kayak tour is incredible, the clear bottom allows you to see all the marine life. Kayaking on the waters of Haleiwa was one of the best things I've ever done. The coral formation is so beautiful, you see so many fishes and turtles.
I have never seen so many turtles in my life, they are everywhere, even in the river. OMG it was amazing, Haleiwa is the turtle paradise!
But I have to say that this is tour is not just about the scenery, the guide made this experience be even better. The local guides grew up on the North Shore and they are so nice and knowledgeable about the area. If you wanna see turtles and if you are looking for a perfect day on the North Shore you should book this tour. A true unique experience in Hawaii.

Great snorkel trip for families!
The Waianae coastline is soooo beautiful! Best part? We saw lots of dolphins :) All tours from Paradise Cruises are top quality. The boat is clean, spacious and it has two decks and you can choose where you wanna seat. The crew is friendly and professional and the food is delicious. I love the idea that you can make your own burger, there was a buffet with a lot of of fresh ingredients.. two thumbs up!
The snorkel is great for beginners, there are a lot of staff in the water watching out for us and they even provide a rope to hold on if you don’t feel too comfortable swimming. The water on the west side is super clear and ridiculously blue, there were so many tropical fishes... I felt like I swimming inside a aquarium.
The snorkel trip and dolphin watch was a lot of fun. I think this tour is great for families with kids, they even have a kids program aboard to keep the little one entertained the entire cruise.

Aloha, and mahalo nui for spending some time to shower us with your kind words. The fact that you remember the key parts of the luau made us all feel that you had the best time and it is our hope that we'd see you again when you come back to Oahu
