All Reviews for Sightseeing / Guided Tours

We chose this horseback riding experience because it has no age restrictions, and we have a 9-year-old child. The bus was full since it was the final stop, but the driver’s friendly approach created a pleasant atmosphere.

We stopped at Dole Plantation, which was a short visit, but we had enough time to enjoy it. At the beach, we even encountered wild sea turtles, and in the meantime, they made a reservation for garlic shrimp, making it easy to enjoy with kids. The tour price was reasonable.

The horseback riding experience was well-explained, and they encouraged us to bond with the horses, which made it a reassuring experience. Depending on the horse, it seems like a great activity for a wide age range. I hope to bring my parents, who are in their 60s, someday. By the way, the restrooms were clean and stylish, even though they were in a container.

Along the way, the instructor took photos and provided explanations about the beach, allowing us to enjoy horseback riding while feeling the pleasant breeze throughout the experience.

On the way back, they mentioned that the route might change depending on traffic conditions, and we were lucky to take a different route than we came, which allowed us to see various landscapes.

親子で9歳の子がいるので年齢制限クリアのこちらの乗馬体験にしました。
お迎えが最終地だったのでバスは満席。でもドライバーさんの声かけでみんな和やかな雰囲気。
立ち寄りのドールプランテーション、時間は短時間ですが充分楽しめました。
海辺では野生の海ガメにも出会え、その間にガーリックシュリンプの予約もしてくれて子供連れには負担なく楽しめました。ツアー料金に納得いきます。

乗馬は説明も細かく、お馬さんと仲良くなれるよう声もかけてくれて安心して体験できました。お馬さんにもよりますが年齢幅広く体験できるいいものだなと。いつか60代の両親もつれてきてあげたいです。どうでもいいですがトイレがきれいでした。コンテナなのにおしゃれな内装。

途中インストラクターさんが写真撮影もしてくれるし、ビーチの説明もしてくれるので終始ここちいい風をあびながら乗馬できました。

帰り道は渋滞状況に応じてルート変更があるとのことで、この時は来た道ではないルートを通ってくれていろんな景色を見ることができラッキーでした。

I signed up with my 84-year-old mother. Although she is healthy, I was worried about whether she would be okay reaching the summit, but our guide, Yama-chan, welcomed us warmly without any signs of discomfort.

Yama-chan's thoughtfulness, the enjoyable conversations on the way to the summit, and the clear and detailed explanations during the sunset viewing and stargazing provided us not only with the beauty of the stars but also with opportunities to reflect on various aspects of life through nature.

This tour requires a permit, and it seems that only 11 people can participate in one vehicle. The other participants were also wonderful people, and we all took turns using the two telescopes without any fuss, marveling at the stars multiple times.

I would love to experience stargazing with Yama-chan again while enjoying our conversations!!!

84歳の母と申し込みました。元気な母ですが山頂まで大丈夫か心配していましたが、ガイドの山ちゃんは全くいやな顔をしないでとても歓迎してくれました。
とにかく山ちゃんの心配り、山頂へ向かう道中までの楽しい話、夕日観賞・星空観にはわかりやすく丁寧な説明、そして星の美しさだけでなく自然を通していろいろ人生を考える機会を与えてくれました。
このツアーには認可が必要で車1台に乗れる11人しか参加することが出来ないそうです。
参加された方もすごくいい人たちで二台の天体望遠鏡も取り合うことなくみんなで順番に感激しながら何度も観ました。
またぜひ山ちゃんと楽しくお話をしながらきれいな星を観てみたい！！！

During the journey there, the driver guided us through various things in the area, and I was happy to learn interesting facts while saying, "Oh, really?" and "Wow!" The horseback riding experience was refreshing and enjoyable. The local staff were also wonderful people. If I could wish for something, I would have liked a little more time to explore Haleiwa Town, even if it meant a slightly later return time. Perhaps it was to avoid traffic? Maybe just a little bit of a tease is just right? It makes me want to go back again.

行きの道中ではドライバーさんが周辺のあれこれをガイドしてくださり、ふむふむ、へ～そうなんだぁ！と豆知識を教わりながら進むことができ嬉しかったです。乗馬も爽やかに気持ちよく体験できました。現地スタッフさんも素敵な方達でした。欲を言えば、解散時間がもう少し遅くなっても構わないのでハレイワタウンでの散策時間がもう少し長ければなぁ～なんて思いました。渋滞対策かな？「もの足りない位」がちょうどいいのかな？また行きたくなるからね。

The waves were really strong, and I got seasick. It's a shame I couldn't swim with the dolphins even though I encountered them. It was great that I could get on the boat with a wheelchair. I wasn't sure where the barbecue lunch was held.

波が凄く酔ってしまいました
イルカと遭遇できたのに一緒に泳げなかったのが残念でした。車椅子でも船に乗る事が出来たのは良かったです。バーベキューランチは何処で行って頂けていたのか？分かりませんでした。

this was my first visit to oahu and the i had booked an introductory tour. it was a perfect start. our tour guide was really lovely with a good sense of humour . he was also knowledgeable about the local history and little areas of interest being a local interest.
there were lots of visits to some beautiful beaches and enough time at the waimea botanical gardens to go for a wander. the lunch was delicious. topped at the end a visit to the dole plantation.
i wish we had more time at the plantation to actually go out on the train to be amongst the growing pineapples which would have added to the experience

The guide, the tour participants, and the weather were all great. It seems that the conditions were unusually good. Personally, I think I could have spent the time more meaningfully if I had prepared my listening skills.

ガイドさんとツアーの参加者、お天気の三点でよかった。まれに見るコンディションの良さだったらしいです。自分としてはリスニングを準備すればもっと有意義に過ごせたと思います。

I chose a children's bike because it was too big for me to reach the pedals, but it was tough to ride! (laughs) The male guide spoke broken Japanese, but he was very friendly! He took a lot of photos for us. My husband's bike got a flat tire, but the cool female guide who was behind us responded quickly and really helped us out. It was a tour where we could truly feel the nature of Hawaii, and I was very satisfied.

What I messed up on was the tip! I got off the bike to thank them and ended up parting ways. I thought, "Wait, was I supposed to give the tip at that moment?!" I went back, but the male guide was already gone. I managed to give the tip to the female guide, though. I'm sorry because tipping is not a custom in Japan.

We were blessed with good weather, but I think if it had rained, I wouldn't have been able to manage since I don't usually ride bikes. There are also steep hills, so please be careful while riding to avoid injuries.

自転車が大きく足が届かないので子供用にしましたがこぐのが大変！（笑）
片言の日本語でしたが、とてもフレンドリーな男性ガイドさん！写真もたくさん撮っていただきました。
主人の自転車がパンクしましたが、後ろについてくれたかっこいい女性のガイドさんに迅速に対応していただいたりと本当にお世話になりました。
ハワイの自然を肌で感じられるツアーで大満足です。
失敗したのはチップ！自転車を降りてお礼を伝えて別れてしまいました。
あれ、あのタイミングで渡さないとダメだった⁉︎となり戻りましたが、男性ガイドさんはもう見当たらず、なんとか女性ガイドさんに渡すことはできましたが。
チップの習慣が日本にはないので申し訳なかったです。
天気に恵まれましたが、雨だったら普段自転車に乗らない私は無理だったかな、と思います。急な坂もありますので怪我しないよう気をつけて運転して下さいね。

I had been wanting to go horseback riding in Hawaii. Initially, I planned to go to Kualoa, but it seemed that the tours there had a lot of free time (waiting) during the scheduled hours, and I didn't want to be bored, so I quickly changed my plans and found this place instead. In the end, it was a great decision to change.

I was disappointed that I couldn't see the sea turtles, which they said you have a high chance of encountering, but the garlic shrimp I had in Haleiwa was very delicious, and I was able to shop at Patagonia as well. It would have been even better if I had more time, but for now, I was satisfied.

At first, I was a bit nervous about horseback riding, but the horses were used to it, so they all lined up nicely and walked leisurely, making it enjoyable even for a first-timer like me. I wanted to take a video, but I had to give up since I couldn't let go of the reins. However, others were taking pictures. I think photos from the horse's back would be a rare capture.

The coastal route was truly amazing, with beautiful scenery that felt very Hawaiian and refreshing. While the lush greens of Kualoa's nature are beautiful, I thought the blue of Hawaii's ocean was even better. I would love to repeat this experience if I have the chance again.

ハワイで乗馬をしたいと思っていました。
はじめはクアロアに行くつもりでしたが、クアロアのツアーは拘束時間内のフリータイム（待機）が多いようで、持て余すのが嫌だったため急きょ予定変更、他にないかと探して見つけたのがこちらでした。
結果、変更して大正解でした。
高い確率で遭遇できるとのことだった海亀を見ることができず残念でしたが、ハレイワで食べたガーリックシュリンプはとてもおいしかったし、パタゴニアで買い物もできました。
もっと時間に余裕があったら尚良かったですが、とりあえず満足でした。
乗馬は、最初は少しビビってしまいましたが、慣れている馬達なので、みんなお利口に1列になってのんびりと歩いてくれて、初めての私にも楽しめました。
ムービーを撮りたかったのですが、さすがに手綱から手が離せなかったため断念しましたが、他の方は撮っていました。馬の上からのビューなんて貴重な写真だと思います。
海沿いを歩くコースも景色が本当に最高で、ハワイらしく、気持ち良かったです。
クアロアの大自然のグリーンもきれいでしょうが、ハワイの海のブルーの方が良かったと思いました。
また機会があったらリピートしたいです。

It’s an experiential luau that families with small children and couples can all enjoy, and my family had a fantastic time! Before the show started, there were activities like fire-starting and making headbands using banana leaves, which kept the audience engaged. They celebrated guests who were there for special occasions on stage, danced with the audience, and above all, the chief's stories were very entertaining, making us laugh from the bottom of our stomachs multiple times! The food and Mai Tai cocktails were also very delicious.

The final fire knife dance was impressive! My 2-year-old son watched intently without blinking!

Definitely experience Chief's Luau! The chief and the crew will surely entertain you!!!

小さいお子様連れの家族、カップル、全ての方が楽しめる体験型ルアウで、私達家族もめいいっぱい楽しませていただきました！ショーが始まる前に火起こしやバナナリーフを使用したヘッドバンド作り体験等があり、観客を飽きさせないような構成になっています。記念日で来ている観客をステージでお祝いしたり、観客とのダンス、また、何よりもチーフの話がとても面白く、途中何度もお腹の底から笑わせていただきました！食事やマイタイカクテルもとても美味しかったです。

最後のファイヤーナイフダンスは見応えありです！私の2歳になる息子も瞬きせずにしっかりと観ていました！

チーフスルアウ、是非、体験して下さい！チーフとクルーがきっと楽しませてくれます！！！

A vast land that served as the filming location for various movies like Jurassic Park. I realized my dream of visiting here someday. It includes three types of experiences and meals, allowing us to enjoy nature in three different vehicles. I think it's a tour that you can't find in Japan.

Along the way, the guide spoke and played music that made us feel like we were in the world of Jurassic Park, and everyone on the ride got excited and cheered loudly. I'm glad I experienced it. Next, I want to try horseback riding too!

ジェラシックパークなどなどの様々な映画のロケ地となった広大な土地。いつか行ってみたいと思っていた事が実現しました。3種類の体験と食事付き、3種類の車での自然を体験してみて
日本には無いツアーだと思います。
途中、同行したガイドの方がまさにジェラシックパークの映画の世界に居るような曲と喋り方で、乗ってるみんなで興奮して大声で歓声を上げました。体験して良かったです。次は乗馬も体験したいです！

Whenever I go to Hawaii, I usually spend my time at the beach and shopping, so this time I wanted to try something more active and joined a tour. However, the waiting time between each tour was boring, especially with kids. There wasn't really anywhere to pass the time...

I think the tour content would be enjoyable for movie fans (those who know a lot about it). I only knew a little (and just some parts), so I started to find the tour tiring and wanted to go home by lunchtime, haha. The bumpy ride on the jungle tour was more intense than I imagined; it felt like a serious version of Star Tours at Tokyo Disneyland, haha. I was so busy trying to keep the kids in check that I couldn't really enjoy the scenery. But since I had wanted to go at least once, I’m glad I got to understand the content.

Since the time commitment is long, I think for those who are just a little interested, it would be sufficient to just stop by with a rental car. The ocean view from Kualoa Ranch was really beautiful and different from Waikiki Beach. I heard you can see whales in the winter, so I’d like to come back during that time. Sorry for digressing!

いつもハワイに行くとビーチ・お買い物だったので今回はアクティブにすごしてみたいと思い参加しました。
一つ一つのツアーの間の待ち時間が子供もいたので退屈でした。
時間潰せるようなところも特になかったので・・・。

ツアーの内容は、映画ファン（詳しい方）は楽しいんだと思います。
私は、少し知ってる（しかも一部）程度なので
途中からツアーがしんどくなりお昼時点で既に帰りたかったです　笑
ジャングルツアーの車の揺れが想像以上で東京ディズニーランドの
スターツアーズの本気揺れてるバージョンでした　笑
子供を抑えておくのに必死でそんなに景色も楽しめずでした。
でも一度行ってみたかったので内容がわかったよかったです。
拘束時間が長いので、少し見たいって方は、レンタカーで少し寄る程度で
充分かと思います。クアロア牧場から見える海はワイキキビーチとは違って
すごく綺麗でしたよ。くじらが冬に見えるそうなのでその時期にまた来たいです、話逸れましたが。

This cruise was a highlight of our trip. We spent our 34th anniversary with delicious food, wonderful music and great company. we had our own private table but had wonderful people sitting next to ours. The live music was relaxing and entertaining throughout the dinner. Our waitress was very courteous and helpful. We hope to spend another anniversary in the future on the Star of Honolulu!! Quyana - Mahalo - thank you.

It was a very peaceful tour, and I think there’s a chance to encounter whales, but I was satisfied to see them clearly! The food was also very delicious. If I had to say something, I wish I had known in advance how far we would be from the whales, as it felt a bit too far.

とても穏やかなツアーで鯨に出会える確率もあるとは思いますが、しっかりと鯨を見させて頂けて満足！料理もとても美味しくて良かった
しいて言うなら、鯨に近づける距離は事前に解っていたらなーって　ちょいと遠過ぎる気がした

Very knowledgeable tour guide and breathtaking views. It was also great to go along with a small group, so the tour could be catered to us. We would go again!

Great tour, knowledgeable tour guide, and picturesque views.

It was great.
The jungle tour was especially good.
It had a cool feeling.
I want you to experience it.
If you go after watching the movie,
the enjoyment doubles.

良かったなー。
ジャングルツアーが
特に良い。
ひんやりとした感じ。
体験してほしい。
映画を見てから行くと
良さが倍増。

What an experience!! Great food, entertainment and I think we got the best server!! Darian was amazing! Would do it again!

This is my third Luau that I have been to so far and this one is by far my favorite! The crew is so nice and attentive and I loved how Chief Sielu is so family oriented. He made several points to bring guests on stage and include them in the show and they even had a special moment for two children through the Make A Wish Foundation that were there which was so sweet!
You are entertained all night long whether it's by the dancing, the Chief's jokes or the amazing fire dancers. I would also highly recommend the Royal package, we had great seats up front and were one of the first in line for the buffet.

it was a whole day tour. the guide was fantastic and gave us a good history lesson all the way up . he was very good with is instructions and timings and gave us ample time to look around
great sense of humour and was very knowledgeable .

With careful planning, the team's sense of unity was fostered, and the production leading to the finale reached its peak.

Blessed by a new moon, guided by the brilliant sunset that continues into tomorrow—

A truly starry night sky filled with stars!

There’s no way to not be moved. Hats off to the incredible skills of the renowned producer, Mr. Yamauchi!

丁寧な段取りでチームの一体感を醸しながら
フィナーレへ向けてのーー演出は最高潮

ちょうど新月にも恵まれて、
明日につづくあざやかな　夕陽の案内でーーーー

夜空一面の本当に満天の星空❗️❗️❗️

感動しないはずありません。
名プロデューサー山内さんのなせる技に脱帽❗️❗️❗️

Our tourguide Leo C. was outstanding--we went on Veteran's day and we couldn't go to the Temple and so he tried to make it up to us by taking us to other sites. It was a great way to see Oahu and learn about the island and indigenous Hawaiian culture

I went with the Royal experience with my husband and 2 year old son. It was the first time Luau as a family. We absolutely loved it!!! The chief was very funny, and the show had a lot of audience engagements when the chief and his crews welcome audience up on the stage for dance and couple anniversaries. Food was very good and of course, the Mai Tai was amazingly tasty! Also, the activities before the show were really fun!!! My 2 year old son loved watching dances especially the last fire dance! He did not blink at all! I would totally recommend to everyone who has not experienced Luau but also to who wants more family oriented Luau experience.

Thank you, Chief and the crews for amazing Luau experience!!!

This was my first time on Maui, and since my previous stargazing experience on Hawaii Island was very impressive, I decided to participate in this tour, which had received high ratings.

We barely made it in time for the sunset due to road conditions, but I was glad to capture the beautiful gradient of the sky in photos. The stargazing I was looking forward to was somewhat limited because the moon was bright, but I was able to see the craters of the moon through the telescope and take pictures, which was nice.

However, I found it a bit uncomfortable that the seating arrangement in the car remained the same throughout the trip. Those sitting in spacious areas could relax comfortably, while those in tighter spots had to place their bags on their laps and were in close contact with the person next to them, making it hard to relax. I wish there could have been a seat change for the outbound and return trips or that a slightly larger vehicle could have been used to accommodate luggage better.

初めてのマウイ島であり，以前のハワイ島での星空観測がとても印象的であったこと，ツアー自体の評価がとても高かったことから参加させていただきました．
夕日鑑賞は道路状況上，ぎりぎり間に合った感じではありましたが，きれいな空のグラデーションを写真に収めることができて，良かったです．
楽しみにしていた星空は，月齢の関係上，とても空が明るかったので星はやや少なめでしたが，その分月のクレーターを望遠鏡で見たり，写真にとることができてよかったです．

ただ，車の席がずっと同じ場所で，広いところに座っている人は車内でゆっくりくつろげ，狭いところに座っていた人は，荷物を自分の膝の上にのせながら，隣の人にがつがつと接触してとてもくつろげるような感じではありませんでした．
出来れば，行きと帰りで席替えをしたり，荷物を置けるようなもう少し大きな車を使用したりすることができなかったのかな，と残念に思いました．

In November 2019, I participated in a Segway tour in Kona, Hawaii. For some reason, my wife had a strong interest in the Segway, so we joined together. At first, the instructor and guide provided thorough instructions on how to ride, and surprisingly, we were able to ride on public roads in a short amount of time. They offered solid support even on the streets, allowing us to move around with confidence. It felt a bit exhilarating to be in the city... The tour ended in no time. It's a fun mode of transportation. If you get the chance, definitely give it a try. By the way, we are a couple over sixty.

　2019　11月　ハワイ島コナでセグウェイツアーに参加しました。なぜかセグウェイに対して妻の興味が強く，二人で参加できました。最初，インストラクター兼ガイドの方が丁寧に乗り方の指導をしてくださり，思いのほか短時間で公道を走れるぐらいになりました。公道でもしっかりとサポートしてくださり，安心して移動できました。街中ではチョットだけ優越感････　あっという間にツアーが終了しました。楽しい乗り物ですよ。チャンスがあればぜひやってみてください。ちなみにうちは還暦過ぎた夫婦です。

I ran for a full two hours in the great outdoors, and it felt amazing! It reminded me of various movie scenes! I want to go again!

2時間たっぷり大自然の中走って
とてもきもちよかったです！
いろんな映画のシーンを思い出しました！
また行きたいです！

This time, I wanted to try going to North Shore, and I was considering adding various options, but it was the right choice to stick to sightseeing only. I had plenty of time for shopping and enjoyed tasting food from various shops little by little. I recommend it for those who want to relax in one place!

今回はノースシュアに行ってみたくて、いろいろなオプションも付けようかと迷いましたが、観光のみにして正解でした。時間までたっぷり買い物、ご飯も食べ歩きのようにいろんな店でちょっとずつ堪能することもできました。一つの場所でゆっくりしたい方にはオススメです！

At first, I was worried about my stamina for the 2-hour mountain bike tour, but it was fine since we stopped for breaks and photo opportunities along the way! The bumpy roads were a bit scary until I got used to the bike, but with some initial practice and knowing how to use the gears, I was able to climb hills smoothly. Although my Japanese isn't very good, the guide was very unique and made the tour exciting, which made for a great memory. I definitely want to recommend this tour to my friends.

最初は2時間のマウンテンバイクツアーで体力的に心配もありましたが、休憩や記念撮影等で止まりながら進んでいくため大丈夫でした！自転車に慣れるまでは道がデコボコのたも少し怖かったですが、最初の練習やギアの使い方次第で坂道もスムーズに登ることが出来ます。日本語はあまり通じませんが、ガイドさんがとてもユニークでツアーを盛り上げてくれるためとても良い記念になりました。友人にも是非勧めたいツアーです。

There were various tours available, but this e-bike tour had about 15 participants in total.

On the day of the tour, it was raining and the roads were bad, which made me quite anxious. However, the guides were there to support us from the front and back, so I was able to ride with peace of mind.

I felt there were a few more hills than expected, but with the electric bike, it felt like it was pushing me along, and I could easily pedal up the hills, making it very comfortable!

The tour included visits to about five movie filming spots. While participants on other bus tours were taking photos from inside the vehicle, we were able to get off at each location during the e-bike tour and take pictures, which was a great aspect of this experience.

Additionally, we were able to navigate narrow paths and climb hills unique to the e-bike tour, leading to spots with stunning views, which was fantastic.

I wish the weather had been better, though. My clothes and shoes ended up soaking wet and covered in mud. (laughs)

But that was also part of the fun, so it was all good!

The guides were very friendly and actively encouraged us to take photos, so I think you'll really enjoy it!

様々なツアーがありましたが、こちらのeバイクツアーは全員で15名ほどでした。

当日は雨で道が悪くとても不安でしたが、
ガイドさんが前後についてサポートしてくれるので
安心して乗ることが出来ました。

坂道が少し多い印象でしたが
電動自転車が押してくれるような感覚で
軽く漕いだだけで登れるので
とても楽チンでした！！

ツアー内容は5箇所ほどの
映画撮影スポットを巡るものでしたが
ほかのバスツアーの方々は車内から撮影していましたが
eバイクツアーでは各所で降車して

その点がとても良かったです。

また、eバイクツアーならではの
細道や坂道を登ったりして
景色一望できるスポットなどもあり
とても良かったです。

天気が良ければもっとよかったな～と思います。
実際服も靴もびしゃびしゃで
泥まみれになりました。笑

それも楽しかったので良かったです！

ガイドの方々もとても気さくで
写真撮影なども進んで行ってくれるので
とても楽しめると思います！

Well organised excursion to see the Arizona Memorial with sightseeing of Honolulu surroundings. There was also an option to add on more to this trip eg the Missouri ship. A little more time at the Pearl Harbour centre would have been better, however the short time at the actual Arizona Memorial was as per the rules of the memorial, and not set by the tour itself. The film before the trip to the actual memorial was excellent. I am mobility impaired and was using a walker, and found my needs amply catered for, and was made to feel valued and welcome.

Upon entering the restaurant, I received a cute headpiece that made me feel like a princess. We were also served a bottle of sparkling wine and enjoyed various cocktails. The food was delicious as well. We were able to enjoy live music and Hawaiian dance too. It became a wonderful memory for New Year's Eve!

レストランに入るとかわいいかぶり物を頂き，気持ちはお姫様気分，スパークリングワインもボトルでサービスされ，他にカクテルも楽しみました。お料理も美味しかったです。ライブ演奏，またハワイアンダンスも楽しめました。
年越しの良い思い出になりました！
