All Reviews for Sightseeing / Guided Tours

This was by far the best tour I have been on in a long time. Driver Danny was a wealth of knowledge and freely shared his experience of the island in a friendly and easy manner.

A small breakfast treat by the blow hole was unexpected, but was a great way to see the blow hole and beach.

Danny's suggestion of dole whip was spot on and I hope that makes its way to Australia soon. Yummmm

This Tour was an Excellent learning experience. The Tour Guide "Kimo" was super knowledgeable and entertaining!! We would recommend this tour to any first timers coming to the Island. The Tour was very helpful and informative which allowed us to plan where we wanted to spend our time on the island; because there is so much to see. This tour helped so much!!

We had a good time good food and watching the fireworks was great I would do it again

Host is hilarious which I feel like makes this place stand out! My kids were laughin the night away.

Hope everyone on Maui is doing okay with the times they faced, we can't stop thinking of our awesome day on Hana!

You hit it all and you do not need to drive and miss views along the way!

Lunch was delicious on top of a wonderful day at the park.

Great food and great entertainment, just be weary on the boat ride if you get sea sick especially while eating.

Staff was terrific at all levels; dock staff, wait staff, bar tenders, historian, musician, & Captain. Everyone was upbeat, personable, courteous, professional, and entertaining.
Food was excellent and the drinks were generous. The captain was very personable and entertaining. Mother-nature provided us with a pod of pilot whales to observe, while keeping a safe distance. Historian was fabulous, giving everyone a much better appreciation and respect for the Hawaiian culture. The music got everyone rocking and rolling with the motion of the boat. A great selection of songs that had the passengers engaged in song.
Can't say much more. We loved it, would do it again, and would highly recommend it to everyone. It was a 3 hour tour that was well worth it.

The guide was very talkative and shared a lot of interesting stories during the ride. They were considerate, and even though my English isn't great, I was able to enjoy the experience.

お話し好きなガイドさんで、車内ではずっとたくさんお話聞かせてくれて面白かったです。気の利く方で、英語が苦手でも楽しむことができました。

Excellent evening and event

Food was great, entertainment was excellent and the entire night felt authentic and not just an overpriced tourist trap

Highly recommended

The guide and driver, Mr. Arai, was very polite and made the tour truly enjoyable and reassuring.

I will definitely repeat this tour when I come to Hawaii.

ガイド&運転手のアライさんが　とても丁寧に　対応して下さり　本当に安心して楽しめるツアーです。
　
　このツアーは　ハワイに来たら必ずリピートします。

The driver and guide knew the sight seeing spots and good food to eat very well. He also helped us take pictures at each visiting point.

I was expecting to "be at one with nature" but there were so many people. We took a short walk up the path, which was beautiful but no time to stop & appreciate it or take photos. Then, when reaching to grotto, it was so crowded, there are other people in all the photos. You don't actually go into the fern grotto, you see it from a short distance. We were told we could take photos on the way down, but the path is narrow and there's the huge line of people behind you so you can't stop. The river ride was nice, but the entertainment took away from the peacefulness of the ride.

Driver was informative. Very professional and helpful.

During our previous visit to the Big Island, my son was too young to join the Mauna Kea summit tour. Now that he is an adult, his dream came true, and we participated together with my husband. Although it was cold at the summit, they lent us down jackets, so it was no problem. With no wind and being the second day after the new moon, both the sunset and the starry sky were magnificent. It felt like we were on another planet. Our guide was half Japanese and had attended school in Japan until elementary school, so he was fluent in Japanese. He was very polite and kind, and he made the starry sky explanation enjoyable with a touch of humor. It was a wonderful experience.

以前にハワイ島を訪れたとき、息子はまだ小さかったので参加できなかったマウナケア山頂ツアー。そんな息子も成人となり、夢がかない主人と3人で参加しました。山頂は寒いもののダウンを貸していただいたので問題なし。風もなく新月から2日目ということもあり、夕日も星空も素晴らしかったです。地球以外の惑星にいるような気分でした。ガイドさんは日本人とのハーフの方で、小学校まで日本の学校に通っていたとのこと、日本語はご達者でした。そして、とても丁寧＆親切に対応していらっしゃり、星空解説もユーモアを取り入れながら楽しく聞かせていただきました。素晴らしい体験でした。

I got a bit bored since we stopped by the ocean so many times. I was happy to be able to sample some local food. The garlic shrimp had a light seasoning, and the shrimp were really big.

I joined the tour because I wanted to take a picture of the Haleiwa sign shown in the product images, but it seemed like the guide wasn't interested, and we just passed by on the bus without any explanation, so I couldn't take a photo.

海にたくさん寄るので途中から飽きてきました。ローカルフードを試食できたのは嬉しかった。ガーリックシュリンプもあっさり目の味付けで、えびがとっても大きかったです。
商品画像にあるハレイワの看板を撮りたくて参加しましたが、ガイドさんの興味がないのか説明も無くバスでスッと通り過ぎただけで写真を撮ることはできませんでした。

This is my second time on the 5-Star cruise. This time, I wanted to see the fireworks on Friday, so I made a reservation here.

I enjoyed the meal and Hawaiian-style cocktails. By the time I was seated, the appetizers were already prepared, and the lobster and salad were easy to eat.

If you want to relax and enjoy a calm atmosphere, I recommend the window-side seats on the 3 or 5-Star cruises.

In the past, I took a photo with the captain at the entrance, but this time it was taken at my seat.

2回目の5スター乗船です。
今回は金曜日の花火も見たくて、
こちらを予約しました。

お食事とハワイらしいカクテルを楽しみました。
お席に着いた時にはもう前菜が用意されており、
ロブスターやサラダは食べやすかったです。

落ち着いた雰囲気でゆっくり楽しむなら
窓側指定の3か5スターがおすすめです。

I couldn't book the same tour I wanted, so I chose this one with an English guide as a second option. My elementary school daughter also enjoyed it without much issue. For stargazing, I always book two sessions during the trip considering weather conditions, and since I had a Japanese explanation the day before, we were able to enjoy the stars. However, compared to a full-fledged stargazing tour, this part felt more like a bonus, with less explanation and no use of a telescope. There were new discoveries as well, as the places I visited for the first time and the Kīlauea crater had changed significantly due to the eruptions.

行きたかった同じようなツアーの予約が取れず、次善の策として英語ガイドでしたが選びました。小学生の娘もさほど問題なく楽しめました。星空観察は天候の問題などを考慮して旅行中いつも2回予約するのですが、前日に一度日本語の解説をしてもらっていたので、星空も楽しめました。ただ、本格的な星空観察ツアーに比べるとその部分は「おまけ」みたいな感じで説明も少なく、天体望遠鏡を使用することもありませんでした。初めて訪れた場所や、キラウエアの火口も噴火により依然とだいぶ変わっていたり、新しい発見がありました。

Incredible tour but our Tour guide, Anson really brought the island and the tour to life. Honestly enjoyed the tour to the max but we would pay to just hang out with Anson again. Lol. I'm sure all the guides are great and extremely courteous.

All the jokes we made he would rebuttal and be involved all while still maintaining his poise and professionalism. It's the little things guys and this tour has it all. Thank you From the bottom of our hearts.

Exceeded our expectations! The tours and guides are excellent. Buffet lunch was good.

My wife and I had taken guided tours before mainly in the Carribean. On those tours, we stopped for various activities: touring a ruin, lunch on the beach, and a hike through a rainforest. Our guide, Kevin, did an excellent job trying to show us everything (and finding restrooms). The fault was not in the guide but in the attempted scope of the tour. It was six hours of driving and stopping for photos and then more driving. For instance, there were two waterfalls on the tour: One (twin falls) in the great distance and the other along the roadside (blink and you would miss it). It would be better if we could be taken to the trailhead and allowed to hike close to the falls. Or maybe with some preplanning, we could have swum at one of the beaches we stopped at. Although my wife and I are in our 60s and 70s, we are both very active. It was an introduction to the Island but we were exhausted at the end of the six hours.

My husband and I did this trip with our 20 and 14 year olds. We all enjoyed it. The boat scenery is beautiful the grotto is an amazing site and the music and entertainment on the way home was nice. We all even participated in the hula lesson.

It was a tour exploring places away from Waikiki with a relaxed atmosphere.

I was able to immerse myself in nature with clear waters, sea turtles, and mongooses that you don't find in Waikiki.

The guide was enjoyable, and the insider stories about Hawaii made it even more fun. I would love to join another tour with the guide.

ワイキキから離れて、ゆっくりした雰囲気の場所を巡るツアーでした。

ワイキキにはない、透明度のある海ウミガメやマングースなど自然の中に溶け込めました。

ガイドさんも楽しく、ハワイの裏話など楽しさ倍増でした。また、ガイドさんのツアーに参加したいです。

We had a lot of fun on the tour Ridge was amazing and gave us a lot of good local history and knowledge. If he didn't know the answer to a question he found it out for us. We'd highly recommend this tour to anybody looking for a great day on the island.

I will be simple and straight, please see my following points.

1. I booked sit down dinner, not buffet, overall food presentation look good, taste good too. Drinks are good too.
2. Service is just so so, the server for my table never gets me things I asked for, example, refill water, lemon, and my second glass of drink, I understand it's a busy task and have to serve all plates and take finishing plates away, and each server takes care of couple tables, but this should not be used as an excuse for service quality.
3. The show is good, but it's kind short, I wish we can see the full stage of Luau show, but the center stage is pretty small, so in order to accommodate every guest, they always have couple dancers on each side,

I participated yesterday on my honeymoon. I was grateful that they taught my wife and me how to use the Segway with great care and attention. The lecture was entirely in Japanese, and it was reassuring to know that it was featured on Ariyoshi's Summer Vacation. I was glad to join as they also shared local hidden spots and dining recommendations.

新婚旅行で昨日参加しました。妻と2人だけのペアで懇切丁寧にセグウェイを教えて下さって有り難かったです。完全日本語レクチャーで、有吉の夏休みでも取り上げられていたところで安心できました。現地ならではの穴場スポットやお食事処も教えていただき参加して良かったです。

Tour driver was knowledgeable and was funny too. She knew the History and insight on the area.

Beautiful river excursion; would have loved more time and not so rushed at the Grotto. One song seemed lame. Wanted time to take pictures of foliage on way down. Definitely would not recommend for wheelchair guests. It was steep and pavement unfriendly to wheelchair wheels and very steep and slippery incline uphill.
Entertainment on way back was very fun and good.

Good tour! Aaron was our guide and he did a perfect job! I only wish the volcano was erupting so we could see more activity. The meals were good, the views were good and we learned a lot.
