Beautiful
We did the Half-Day Afternoon Hawaiian Experience after we spoke to the knowledgeable staff at Hawaiiactivities.com who recommended this activity to my husband and I.
We spent the afternoon 1st off with a lovely boat ride in a 800 year old sacred Hawaiian fishpond. Beautiful sights of the mountains and we had a good tour guide who told us stories of the fishpond as well as the ranch! After the boat ride was done, we did the movie sites tour and seen a lot of spots where many films were made. Dinner was absolutely delicious! If you want a nice way to explore a different part of the island that a lot of people don't get to experience, take this tour! You will not be disappointed!

Paradise Cove Luau on the Beach at Ko Olina Resort
Luau with my Family!
I took my family to this Luau because it was my daughter's birthday, and oh boy we had a good time!
We had a beautiful canoe ride and a tasty Hawaiian Buffet Dinner! I even got to see a Hawaiian sunset with my wonderful wife. Overall, we had a wonderful time! I would definitely recommend this luau!

OH~EM~GEE ITS ELVIS!!!
Elvis shook my hand!!! LOL Well not the Real Elvis, but he was pretty close! The show was fun, full of energy and the entertainers were great! Rock~a~ Hula, Rock, Rock A hula, I can't get that song out of my head!
My date and I did the VIP Dinner, we had our own private stage side table, delicious drinks and a fancy gourmet dinner (why not splurge a little since your in Hawaii). The theater is real nice and quite impressive, I would recommend bringing a sweater or a jacket because it does get cold.
Where else can you see the Young Skinny Elvis, Elton John, Michael Jackson, Lady Gaga, Old Chubby Elvis and Hula Dancers all in one place!! It was a good fun show, I would highly recommend to all my friends back on the Eastcoast!

Sunset Sail in luxury!
My mom has never gone sailing before, so what an absolute treat this was to bring her on a Sunset Sail with me and my daughter. We enjoyed every single minute of it. It wasn't one of those Booze Cruises where everyone is loud and getting their fill of free booze, this one I was able to relax with my daughter, enjoy a drink and watch the sunset.
The crew mates were so friendly, drinks were top notch, and the Spirit of Aloha is in great shape to handle the open sea!
I definitely recommend this to anyone looking for a good and simple sunset cocktail sail!

a Ranch full of history!!
Got to see a lot of good sites from the movies that they filmed at the ranch. Even got to see a hillside that looks like 2 gorillas kissing (see the picture!)
The ancient pond was beautiful and peaceful, and the mountain range view from the pond is downright gorgeous. Dinner was very tasty. I would definitely come back to do this again!!

Alii Kai Sunset Dinner Cruise (from Aloha Tower)
FUNtastic TIME!!!
What a great time we had! The Catamaran is bigger than I had expected and the dinner was good and it was laid out really nicely!
The service though.. not so much. Our waitress, was pretty slow in getting us our drinks. We had to continually holler at her to get her attention.
Entertainment was great, everyone got up to dance and do all these random dances, like Electric Slide, Macarena, Cupid Shuffle, YMCA.. kinda corny, but HEY, its all for fun! They even had some entertainment set up for the couples on-board. They played several love songs on-board while couples were dancing and enjoying the Hawaiian sunset at the same time.
We took a lot of pictures of the sunset and of Waikiki.. beautiful! I would definitely do this Sunset Dinner Cruise again..
**PS*** BIG BONUS!!! if you book for Friday Night, the catamaran stays out til 8:15PM to watch the Friday Night Fireworks of Waikiki.. AWESOME!!

Hop-on Hop-off Double Decker Bus Pass
Panoramic Sightseeing!!
Such a convenient and easy way to run around Waikiki and Downtown Honolulu to get in some real good picture taking! They give you free ear phones to plug into the back of the seat that is in front of you to listen to live and informative narration while the checking out the sights. Top Deck is the best place to be to get great viewing. PLUS, with this pass you can hop off at one sight, check it out, and wait for the next bus and hop right back on!! WONDERFUL!! I am definitely telling everyone about the ALOOOOOOOOOHA Bus!

Very Convenient Snorkel Excursion!!
My 6 year old daughter wanted to do some snorkeling so I took her on the spirit of Aloha. I only had very little time to spend because we had a Luau later in the evening, this excursion was PERFECT!! Weather was beautiful and the sail boat was very clean and spacious! My daughter had a blast in the water and enjoyed the snacks and the time the crew spent sailing over the waves. Good fun! AND we made it back in time to get dressed for our Luau.. WONDERFUL way to spend the afternoon, I would definitely do this again!

Beauitful way to end our evening
After a long stressful week, we headed on over to Kualoa Ranch. We were taken away by the beauty that this ranch preserves. You will NOT see any large buildings, overcrowded retail shops and a whole bunch of touristy Hokie Pokie music. Its just beauty and deep Hawaiian history that surrounds you.
We enjoyed the Hawaiian Fishing & Garden Tour the MOST!! You take a little ferry boat ride around the 800 year old pond, and let me tell you.. Mountain views are simply AMAZING!!! After the Garden tour, we head over for our Movie Sites and Ranch tour, which you get to see sites they used for Jurassic Park, Pearl Harbor, Windtalkers, 50 First Dates, Godzilla..real exciting!!
After an afternoon of activities, they had a buffet dinner ready for us, which was extremely tasty! Everything is chopped, prepared and cooked right at the ranch, NO CATERING HERE!!
Overall, we had a really good time. Everything was so beautiful, and it was just nice to be away from the whole tourist crowd that

Good Times!!!
My friend decided to do this cruise and so we went along. We all had an incredible time! While we were sailing out in the deep blue ocean enjoying our tasty drinks and listening to the tunes, it just automatically becomes the perfect combination to get everyone in a mood to socialize, move around and even dance on-board! The best part about the whole cruise was the gorgeous sunset (besides the OPEN bar).
I would definitely recommend this to my friends and to everyone I know!! Thank you so much for a wonderful time!
Sailing + Drinks + Friends = GOOD TIMES!
