The waves were too bad g to kayak so our guide Kyle took us on a hike, fed us, then we went snorkeling and everywhere we went we went on e-bikes!! It was awesome!! He kitted everyone out that needed equipment would definitely recommend them and Kyle! Thank you!!!
We had the best time with Kyle our tour guide. He was very informative and helped us feel very comfortable. We have never ridden E-bikes & had to pull kayak behind them to get to the drop spot in Kailua.-approx a mile. It was actually very easy and fun. We also have never been on kayaks in the ocean. Surprisingly it was a lot easier than expected. It was a beautiful day & waves were calm. The waves got a little larger coming back, but as long as you cut them in half they were no problem at all. Our intent was to explore the mokes, however a baby monk seal was just born, so the mother and it were both on the island. DLNR was there to ensure nobody came close to protect them so we saw them from afar and worked our way back to Lanikai for some snorkeling. Kyle brought some water and granola bars for a snack for us. Saw beautiful fish. Sadly got stung by a jellyfish Manowar. But that could happen anywhere… When we got back to the shop Kyle treated us with his favorite island snacks which included fresh poke, seaweed, sweet white pineapple, and drinks. Would highly recommend doing this tour and would definitely come back and do it again! 10 out of 10!
Me and my three adult kids 18-24 had an amazing time! Kyle and Ethan were so accommodating with fresh pineapple when we arrived, drinks and snacks, and even Poke bowls on the island. This was a full day of adventure - ebikes were a blast, we snorkeled off Lanikai Beach and at the island. Water and views were spectacular. We saw lots of fish and turtles and even one sleeping at base of the reef right below us. We hiked along the island to Kyle's favorite place and came back exhausted after a full day. Highly recommend for active families or group of friends.
Our family was visiting Kauai and Oahu, and the consensus was this was our favorite activity! Kyle and Jacks were amazing guides. The experience went beyond our expectations. We e-biked through town to the beach, kayaked to the Mokulua Islands, hiked on one of the islands, took a dip in the "Queen's bath," snorkeled where we saw one of the largest turtles we've ever seen, and then kayaked back. Afterwards we were treated to delicious poke bowls and fresh pineapple. Truly an unforgettable experience! We highly recommend Active Oahu tours!
What a fantastic and fun experience. The tour team were super friendly and provided us with interesting information plus refreshments and lunch. The e-bikes were high quality and the short ride to the beach was enjoyable. The bird sanctuary and walk were unique. The kayaking was great plus I learned how to snorkel for the first time ever - wow - got to see a turtle swim by me. The views all around us were stunning. I have been on numerous past tours and would highly recommend this day out. Thank you!
Kyle was our expert guide for a full day of adventure. He was kind, friendly, and knowledgeable, giving us plenty of history and insight throughout the whole tour. Highly recommend carving out some time for an Active Oahu tour. The whole team is very approachable and helpful throughout the entire experience, from prep all the way through the end. This was one of our favorite activities from our Hawaii trip (Maui + Oahu).
Wonderful experience! Great tour. Would highly recommend doing this. The combination of the electric bikes and kayaking was awesome. Saw whales and turtles on the tour.
