Hawaii
The scenery was amazing! The UTV ride so fun. Only suggestion is to slow it down just a little so the driver can enjoy the view more. Driver had to focus on driving too much
I noticed the spouting from a distance and was able to see the back and tail fin as well! I happened to be in a spot where I could see it, but there were people on the same shuttle bus who said they missed it, so I wish there were more real-time broadcasts in Japanese.
遠くで潮吹きに気づき、背中と尾ヒレもなんとか見えました!!
たまたま見れる場所にいたので気づきましたが、同じ送迎バスの中で見れなかったと言っていた人がいたので日本語リアル放送がもっとあればいいなと思いました。
There were places on the same ship where you could and couldn't see, so it might be a good idea to pay attention to where people are gathering and where cheers are coming from. I was standing on the s
同じ船内でも見れる見れない場所があったので人が集まっている場所、歓声が上がる場所に注意したほうがいいかもです。
私は陸が見える側に立っていました。
Thank you very much for joining our cruise. We are very pleased to hear that you enjoyed whale watching. We hope to see you again. All of our staff are looking forward to your next visit.
この度は私共のクルーズにお越し頂き誠に有難うございました。
クジラの観測をお楽しみ頂けました様で大変嬉しく思います。是非またお越し下さい。スタッフ一同お待ち申し上げております。
I participated in a tour that ended in the morning. The weather wasn't very good, and it was a bit chilly, but I didn't feel as cold as I thought I would when I got into the water. During snorkeling, there were many colorful fish, and I encountered a turtle a couple of times. Additionally, there was a pod of dolphins a little further out, making it a satisfying tour in a short amount of time. Next time I come to Hawaii, I want to recommend it to my friends and join them.
午前中で終了するツアーでしたので参加してみました。余り良い天候ではなく、少し肌寒い気温でしたが海に入ると思ったより寒く感じませんでした。シュノーケリングでは様々な色の魚がたくさんいて、カメさんにも2度程遭遇デキました。更に少し先の方にはイルカの群れがいてたりと短時間で色々と満足デキたツアーでした。次回、ハワイに来た時には友人達に勧めて一緒に参加したいです。
It's a short time in the ocean, but you'll be swimming with fins. Since the kicking motion is something you're not used to, it can be quite tiring, so it's a good workout! (laughs)
短時間の海中ですがフィンを使用しての回遊。普段慣れないキック動作ですので結構疲れると思いますので良いトレーニングになりますよ(笑)
Although it was the rainy season, there was a break in the weather before we set off, so we left our jackets in the car and started out in short sleeves. However, as we headed towards the mountains, a cold drizzle began to fall. At first, we enjoyed the bumps of the buggy and splashing through puddles, but since there was no front window, rain poured in while driving, soaking our seats and leaving us completely drenched. By the end, it was too cold and quite uncomfortable.
The instructor was humorous and kind, taking photos for us. However, the instructor was dressed warmly in a raincoat and long sleeves and pants, so I thought it would have been nice if they had offered to lend us raincoats at least.
The advertisement featured a photo of passing through the Jurassic World gate, which my husband seemed to be looking forward to, but we only stopped at about three points, and we passed by what seemed to be the gate without stopping. My husband, a huge Jurassic Park fan, was a bit disappointed.
I think it's best to participate in this activity with the mindset of enjoying the magnificent mountains and nature in a buggy.
雨季であはりますが出発前は晴れ間があったのでジャケットなどは車に置いて半袖で出発。しかし山の方へ進むと霧雨のような冷たい雨が降り始めました。初めはバギーの揺れや水たまりをバシャバシャと走り楽しんでいましたが、フロントの窓がないので運転中雨が降りこんで席も濡れてしまい全身びしょ濡れになりました。最後の方は寒すぎて辛かったです。
インストラクターさんはユーモアがあり写真を撮ってくれたりと親切でした。しかし、インストラクターさんだけレインコートと長袖長ズボンで暖かそうな装いだったので、せめてレインコートの貸し出しなどの声かけがあるといいなと思いました。
広告にはジュラシックワールドのゲートをくぐる写真があったので主人はそれを期待していたようでしたが、ストップポイントは3つほどでゲートと思われるところも素通り。ジュラシックパーク大ファンの主人は少しがっかりしていました。
バギーで壮大な山々と自然を楽しむアクティビティと思って参加するといいと思います。
The scenery is wonderful, but I strongly recommend bringing a raincoat and a change of clothes on days when rain is expected.
景色は素晴らしいですが、雨が降ると思われる日はレインコートや着替え持参を強くお勧めします。
Absolutely loved this activity!!! Our tour guides Vea, Everette, and Emely were amazing and made our tour so much fun! Definitely a must when in Hawai’i!
Go through the yellow gates!!!!!
I couldn't see any dolphins, whales, or turtles, not even a shadow or a hint of their presence, and I felt no motivation to search for them. The first snorkeling spot had hardly any fish, yet we were made to swim there for a long time. The second snorkeling spot was really great, but I got cold and tired from the first spot, so I ended up spending less time at the second one, which was disappointing. The hot dog for lunch had a sickly red sausage that was surprisingly bad, and I couldn't eat it. It was the worst hot dog I've ever had; I always thought you couldn't make a hot dog taste bad no matter how you prepared it, so I was shocked. There were no pineapples. The boat was simpler than I expected and rocked a lot, making it uncomfortable to ride. I thought the quality for this price was terrible.
イルカもクジラもカメも影も形もみえず、気配さえ感じられず、なんとか探そうという気概も感じられず。一回目のシュノーケルスポットはたいして魚もいないのに長時間泳がされて、2回目のシュノーケルスポットはとてもよかったのに、一回目のシュノーケルスポットで冷えて疲れて2回目の方が短時間になってしまい物足りなかった。ランチのホットドッグが気持ち悪い赤い色のソーセージで、びっくりするほどまずく、食べられなかった。こんなにまずいホットドックはうまれて初めて、ホットドックなんてどう作ってもまずくはならないと思っていたので衝撃だった。パイナップルはなかった。船も思っていたより簡易的で揺れて乗り心地が悪かった。この値段でこの内容はひどすぎると思いました。
Dear Snorkeling Lover,
Thank you very much for participating in the Dolphin Watching & Double Snorkel tour on the Big Island the other day. We sincerely apologize for not meeting your expectations despite your visit.
We have communicated your feedback to the local crew and confirmed the situation on the day of the tour. Regarding the dolphin encounters, unfortunately, there were no dolphins spotted in the bay preferred by them near the harbor, so we moved to the first snorkeling point. Since there were no sightings reported by other tour boats afterward, we proceeded to the next point. While the Big Island is rich in wildlife, we hope you understand that there are times when encounters may not occur.
As for the snorkeling points, we selected locations considering the sea conditions and weather on the day to ensure a safe and enjoyable experience, but we regret that we could not meet your expectations. Additionally, the hot dogs provided for lunch are a local favorite made with paprika coloring, prepared as a Hawaiian local food. Unfortunately, we were unable to provide pineapple as it was sold out that day. We apologize for the crew not being able to adequately explain and apologize regarding lunch during the tour. We believe that if we could have communicated more information during the tour, you would have enjoyed it more.
We apologize again for not being able to alleviate your concerns due to the absence of a Japanese-speaking crew member. If you participate again in the future, please feel free to request Japanese support, and we will arrange for a Japanese crew member.
We will strive to provide a tour that meets your satisfaction once again. Once again, we apologize for not meeting your expectations this time.
シュノーケリング大好き様。 先日は、ハワイ島ドルフィンウォッチング&ダブルシュノーケルのツアーにご参加いただき、誠にありがとうございました。この度は、せっかくお越しいただいたにもかかわらず、ご期待に添えなかったことを心よりお詫び申し上げます。 いただいたご指摘を現地クルーに伝え、当日の状況を確認いたしました。まず、イルカの遭遇に関してですが、ハーバー近くのイルカの好む湾において、当日はイルカが見られず、最初のシュノーケルポイントに移動いたしました。その後も他のツアーボートからの目撃情報がなかったため、次のポイントに移動いたしました。ハワイ島は野生生物が豊富ですが、出会えない場合があることをご理解いただければ幸いです。 シュノーケルポイントについては、当日の海況や天候を考慮し、安全に楽しんでいただける場所を選びましたが、期待に添えなかったことを残念に思います。また、ランチで提供したホットドッグはパプリカの色素を使った地元の人気商品で、ハワイのローカルフードとしてご用意しております。 パイナップルについては、当日売り切れのためご用意できなかったとの事でした。ランチに関してツアー中にクルーがしっかりとご説明とお詫びができず、申し訳ございませんでした。お客様にツアー中に情報をお伝えできれば、より楽しんでいただけたのではと考えております。日本語を話せるクルーが不在であったため、ご不安を解消することができなかったことを重ねてお詫びします。 次回ご参加いただける際には、日本語対応のリクエストをいただければ、日本人クルーの調整を行いますので、ぜひお気軽にお知らせください。お客様に再度ご満足いただけるツアーを提供できるよう、努めてまいります。 改めて、この度はご期待に添えなかったことをお詫び申し上げます。
I rode for two hours.
I was able to enjoy a panoramic view of the sea and mountains in the great outdoors. I was excited to visit a location that served as the setting for the 1993 film Jurassic Park.
Since I was riding for two hours straight, be careful of muscle soreness.
2時間騎乗してきました。
大自然の中で海、山を一望することができました。山コースでは、1993年公開のジュラシックパークの舞台となった場所に行くことができ興奮しました。【作品はジュラシックパーク1です。】
2時間騎乗しっぱなしなので、筋肉痛には注意を
We booked the Kaneohe sandbar standard package as we had our 2 year old kid travelling with us. We got to do a bit of everything swim, snorkel, kayak and paddleboard. My son enjoyed his first kayak ride. There is a good deck once u reach the sandbar where we can relax in between activities. The crew were friendly and hospitalable. We enjoyed the music onboard. I would definitely recommend the Kaneohe sandbar experience to anyone visiting Oahu !!!!
Please check the weather and tide timings before you book.
Mahalo for your review! - Team KBOS
The weather was a bit bad, with many clouds, but Diamond Head looked very beautiful. Also, it was a great experience to see the rainbow at such a beautiful moment! The explanations and reception were provided in Japanese and simple English.
少し天気が悪く、雲は多かったですがダイヤモンドヘッドがとても綺麗に見えました。
また、虹がとても綺麗に見えるタイミングで良い経験になりました!
説明や受付は日本語と簡単な英語で対応いただけました。
I was scared of seasickness, so I took some anti-nausea medication. I think it's reassuring for those who are anxious to take it.
船酔いが怖かったので酔い止め服用しました。不安な方は飲んだ方が安心だと思います。
If traveling with multiple people, I would use other means, but I always use this service when traveling alone. They speak at a moderate volume and always make me feel secure while using it.
複数人での渡航であれば他手段を利用しますが、1人旅時に利用させていただいております。
適度な声量で声掛けもしてくれて、いつも安心して利用させていただいております。

黄色アロハシャツも分かりやすく、いつも安心して利用させていただいております。
At the pickup location at Twin Fin, several buses were parked, and there was no clear guidance on which bus to take, making it difficult to know where to go. Driving the buggy myself was a lot of fun, and I felt like a child again as I raced around the magnificent scenery. The weather was great and refreshing. Next time, I plan to try horseback riding.
ピックアップ場所のツインフィンには数台のバスが止まっていて特に案内があるわけでもなくどのバスに乗ればいいのかわかりずらかったです
バギーは自分で運転し壮大な景色を走り回り童心に戻るくらい楽しかったです
お天気も良く爽快でした
次回は乗馬体験に来ようと思います
Please be careful with your clothing, as the white clothes were stained brown.
白い服が茶色っほく汚れていたので服装には気をつけてください
Since it was my first time using the shuttle bus, I was worried about finding the pickup location, but the staff's bright yellow aloha shirts stood out, and I was able to spot them right away. When I asked about the departure time, I was told it would be in 50 minutes, which made me regret choosing the shuttle bus due to the long wait. However, it actually departed in about 20 minutes.
シャトルバスを利用するのは初めてだったのでピックアップ場所がわかるか不安でしたがスタッフの黄色のアロハシャツが目立ちすぐにわかりました
出発時間を尋ねると50分後と言われかなり待ち時間が発生するのでシャトルバスを選んだことに後悔しましたが実際には20分ほどで出発しました
The tour was very good.
It was disappointing that the pickup time was delayed. If there is going to be a delay, I would like to be informed by email. The phone line was not reachable. I hope this can be improved.
ツアーはとても良かったです
お迎えの時間が遅れていた事は残念です
遅れるならメールにて送って欲しいです
電話は繋がらないし
改善して欲しいです
Thank you very much for participating in the tour. We apologize for the delay caused by traffic conditions on the day of the event. We will share your feedback internally. Thank you. From all the KBOS staff.
この度はツアーにご参加頂き誠にありがとうございました。当日は交通状況によりお待たせしてしまった様で申し訳ございませんでした。頂いたご意見は社内で共有させて頂きます。ありがとうございました。 KBOS スタッフ一同
We had an amazing time on the boat. The food was delicious, the crew was amazing, and we saw whales. We were traveling with a 4 and 6 year old and they had all the perfect amenities for kids. 10/10!
Thank you for the 5-star review!
5/5 stars! Celebrated my husband's birthday at Dolphin Quest Oahu and we had an absolute blast! Despite the windy weather, our whole family created unforgettable memories together!
Don't drink the water while swimming with the dolphin. My son says it tastes bad. :)
5/5 stars! The Polynesian Cultural Center Tour was a trip highlight! Well-organized, easy to follow, and bursting with energy. The setting was perfection!
Don't hesitate to get there early and have snacks for your little ones, so you don't miss the shows
We had a great experience parasailing. It was definitely a highlight of our trip. The crew was friendly, experienced, and we felt safe and well taken care of. Our group consisted of 2 adults and 4 teens (15 & 17 y/o). We were combined with one other family of 5.
We opted for the 800 ft line since it was our first time. But in hindsight, go for the longest line.
First of all, the driver was great. Being Japanese made me feel at ease. Thanks to their service-oriented spirit and the various information they provided, I was able to fully enjoy the North Shore even in a short time. It was my first time horseback riding, and I was worried, but the thorough explanation of the precautions in the vehicle allowed everything to proceed smoothly. The local female staff were also kind, and my son, who is in the third year of middle school, enjoyed horseback riding as well. He said it was the best part of our trip. I was also satisfied with the delicious restaurants they recommended. The ocean was very beautiful, and I would love to go to the North Shore again.
まずドライバーさんが良かったですね。
日本人で安心できます。
サービス精神があって、色々情報を提供してくださったおかげで、短時間でもノースショアを満喫できました。
乗馬も初めてで心配でしたが、車内でしっかり注意事項を説明していただいたお陰でスムーズに進行出来ました。
現地の女性スタッフの方々も親切で、中学3年の息子でも乗馬を楽しめました。今回の旅で一番良かったと言っています。
食事も美味しいお店をご紹介いただいたお陰で満足出来ました。
海がとてもキレイで、もう一度ノースショアに行きたいですねー。
When riding horses, be careful not to get too close to the horse in front of you, as there is a risk of being splashed with manure (according to the driver). Please be cautious when the horse in front
乗馬の際、前の馬に近づきすぎると、糞尿をかけられる恐れがあるらしいので(ドライバーさん情報)前の馬が立ち止まったときは気をつけてください😅
Thank you for participating in the horseback riding tour with Island Makana Tours. We are glad to hear that you enjoyed the ride. This is a very popular tour with our company. Please consider using Island Makana Tours again when you visit the North Shore. Mahalo!
このたびはアイランドマカナツアーズの乗馬ツアーに参加いただき、ありがとうございました。乗馬、お楽しみいただけたようで嬉しく思います。弊社のツアーでも非常に人気のあるツアーです。ぜひまたノースショアに行かれる際にはアイランドマカナツアーズをご利用下さいませ。Mahalo!
I enjoyed a thrilling and exciting time. My son, who is in his third year of middle school, was also happy. Although my reservation was confirmed, the email from Veltra only registered one ticket, so I had to pick up another ticket at the service counter. However, the staff were kind, and even though the two of us couldn't speak English, we were assisted without any difficulty. It seems better to head to the reception early, as there were many people who entered just before the show started. I also remember seeing a note that drinks could only be purchased inside the venue, but it was quite vague. When I asked the staff checking tickets if I could bring in a plastic bottle, they just ignored the question.
ハラハラドキドキの時間を楽しめました。
中学3年の息子も喜んでいました。
予約は通っていましたが、ベルトラさんから送られてきたメールでは1名分しかチケット登録されていなくて、サービスカウンターでもう一人分のチケットを受け取る必要が生じましたが、スタッフの方も優しくて、英語喋れない二人でも苦労なく対応してもらえました。
こういうこともあるので、早めに受付に向かう方が良さそうです。
ただ、ほとんどの方は開演直前になって入場して来られる感じでした。
また飲み物は店内購入以外持ち込めないような記載があった気がしますが、わりとアバウトで、ペットボトル持込可能かをチケット確認のスタッフに聞いたら、スルーでした。
If you are making a reservation for multiple people, I recommend taking action early.
複数名の予約の場合はお早めの行動をオススメします。
It was a two-hour experience of rain coming and going. I was worried about whether I could enjoy it, but the misty scenery was fantastic. I was anxious about riding for two hours, but the smart horse mostly moved on its own. The instructor used a little Japanese, but it was mostly in English. I couldn't understand most of it, but I had a very enjoyable time riding for the first time in the great outdoors. Thank you very much.
雨が降ったり止んだりの2時間でした
楽しめるか心配でしたが もやのかかった景色も幻想的でよかったです
2時間も馬に乗るのは不安でしたが賢いお馬さんでほぼ自分で進んでいってくれました
インストラクターの方は少し日本語を使ってくれましたがほぼ英語です
聞き取れない箇所がほとんどでしたが初めての乗馬と大自然の中でとても楽しい時間を過ごせました
ありがとうございました
They provided us with raincoats, but I thought it would be fine to wear regular summer clothes. It was cold because the temperature didn't rise due to the rain (I warmed up with the horse). It might b
カッパは用意してくれてましたが大丈夫かなと思い普通の夏服で乗りました
雨で気温が上がらず寒かったです(馬で暖を取りました)天気が悪い時は対策をした方がいいかもしれません
Our driver was wonderful and funny. I appreciate that he called us to tell us he had arrived at the pick-up spot. We didn’t see the van pull up and he was parked behind us. The hike is demanding especially in the rain. It was quite slippery on the way down. We had already purchased ponchos, but our driver had some for sale. We were able to complete the hike easily within the timeframe, and had time to stop in the gift shop. Just be aware of the weather and plan accordingly. Good shoes are a must!
I went to Honolulu for work, and I was able to make a reservation relatively close to my departure date. Although the bus departure location was a bit far, there was a guide who kindly explained everything in Japanese right after I got off the plane. When I was getting off, the driver was also carefully picking up the contents of a bag that a customer had dropped.
仕事のためホノルルに行きましたが、割と直前でも予約が取れたこと、バスの出発場所は遠めでしたが、空港を降りたところで案内の人が丁寧に日本語で説明をくださった。降りるときも、運転手(?)の人が、御客さんが落としたバッグの中身を丁寧に拾ってくれていました。
The trolley is decorated for Christmas and Christmas songs are playing, so you can enjoy a different atmosphere than usual. City Lights has displays throughout its spacious grounds, including outside, but I found myself with too much free time. I thought it might have been better to go see it on our own rather than participating in the tour.
トロリーがクリスマス仕様にデコレーションされクリスマスソングが流れているので、いつもと違う雰囲気を味わえます。
シティライツは、外も含めれば広い敷地内にディスプレイがあるものの、時間を持て余してしまいました。ツアーで参加せずとも、自分たちで見に行くのでもよかったかなと思いました。
I have too much free time.
時間を持て余します。
Thank you for your valuable feedback. We are very pleased to hear that you enjoyed the Christmas-themed trolley and Christmas songs, creating a different atmosphere from usual.
We appreciate your suggestion about making better use of time, and we will take it into account for future improvements. We will continue to strive to provide even more fulfilling experiences for our customers.
Thank you for your valuable advice. We look forward to your next participation, and our staff will be waiting for you.
貴重なご感想をいただき、ありがとうございます。クリスマス仕様のトロリーやクリスマスソングで、いつもと違った雰囲気をお楽しみいただけたこと、大変嬉しく思います。
もう少し時間を有効に使える方法があればとのご意見も、今後の改善に活かさせていただきます。お客様にご満足いただけるよう、さらに充実した内容をご提供できるよう努めてまいります。
貴重なアドバイスをありがとうございます。またのご参加をスタッフ一同お待ちしております。
The activities here were truly amazing. I will definitely repeat them next time I go to Hawaii! In the morning, I did the buggy and in the afternoon, the zipline, and since each activity lasted a long time, I was able to enjoy them thoroughly. The views I saw were all fantastic.
ここのアクティビティは本当に最高でした。次回ハワイに行ったらリピート間違いなし!!午前にバギー午後にジップラインをしたのですが、1つのアクティビティの時間が長いので、じっくり楽しめました。見た景色はどれも最高です。

The view from Waikiki to Diamond Head was refreshing! I took off into the sky without even having time to feel scared, so I had no fear at all. The location was easy to find, so I would love to experience it again!
ワイキキからダイヤモンドヘッドまで一望できて気分も爽快でした!怖いとか言う間もなく空へ飛び立ったので、恐怖心は全然なかったです。場所もわかりやすかったので、また体験したいです!
It was fun that the captain and crew talked to us. We searched for whales since they said we could see them, but we couldn't find any that day. The scenery was really beautiful and enjoyable! I have a fear of heights, so I was nervous and held onto the reins the whole time, which made my arms sore when I got off, but it became a great memory. I tend to get motion sickness, so I took some medicine, but I was totally fine.
キャプテンとクルーの人達が話しかけてくれたりして楽しかったです。
クジラ見えるよーって探したけれど、この日は見つけられなかった。
景色が本当に綺麗で楽しかった!!
高所恐怖症でドキドキで、ずっと手綱握ってたから降りたら二の腕パンパンだったけれど、いい思い出になりました。
乗物酔い激しい方なので酔い止め飲んだけれど全然平気でした。
Super fun tour with easy to talk to guide. So many fish to see. Our son even saw an octopus.
You guys did great! Hope we see you again
Dan
Our ferry rides over to Lanai and back were great and the return was the best. We had one of the best sunsets ever looking back over the water with colorful cloud layers over Lanai. Also lots of whale activity in the morning and evening.
