This tour was fun. Stupid fun. Like crazy, muddy, stupid fun! 10 out of 10 would recommend. We had a beautiful day with juuust enough rain to keep the mud nice and soft and sticky with a few big, slick puddles to splash through. Can't recommend this experience enough!

Bring clothing you don't mind getting dirty. Really, really dirty. And wet. You get the opportunity to hike down to a gorgeous, waterfall-fed pool for some swimming.

The guides were friendly and fun and we had a blast. The property is stunning and there are showers available for after the ride; bring a change of dry, clean clothes!

Onboard, Hawaiian music played like a live performance, making the journey enjoyable.

Once we arrived, we could freely play in the beautiful sea or take a break on the boat.

You can enjoy stand-up paddleboarding, kayaking, and snorkeling in the sea. There were also balls available for rent.
You can't wear shoes while paddleboarding or kayaking, but it might be good to have water shoes for snorkeling.

We were able to take turns using the paddleboards and kayaks.

船内はライブのようにハワイの音楽が流れていて、向かうまでも楽しかったです。

着いてからはとにかく綺麗な海で自由に遊んだり、船で休憩したり出来ます。

海ではサップやカヤック、シュノーケリングを楽しめます。ボールの貸し出しもありました。
サップやカヤックは靴の使用が出来ませんが、シュノーケリング時はマリンシューズがあるといいかと思います。

サップやカヤックは交代に使うことが出来ました。

I visited Kualoa Ranch for the first time. The shuttle bus was comfortable, and once we arrived at Kualoa Ranch, the tour guide provided a thorough explanation in English.

The pre-ride video for the ATV was in Japanese, which made it easy to understand.

As we set off, it felt like we had entered the world of a movie. We stopped at movie spots, and the tour guide took many photos in English.

There are restrooms, souvenir shops, and a café. If you want to take your time looking at souvenirs, I recommend allowing extra time for the bus schedule.

I wore clothes that could get dirty and brought a change of clothes to store in a locker. (Even if you cover your face, you can still get dirty. If women plan to go out afterward, it might be good to bring makeup remover for touch-ups.) I hope this is helpful!

クアロアランチに初めて行きました。
送迎バスも快適で、クアロアランチについてからもツアーガイドから丁寧に説明がありました。(英語)

四輪バギー乗車前映像の説明が日本語であり、わかりやすかったです。

いざ出発すると映画の世界に入ったようでした。
映画のスポットにも止まって、英語でのツアーガイド、写真をたくさん撮ってくれます。

トイレ、お土産屋、カフェもあります。
お土産をゆっくりみたい方はバスの時間に余裕が出るようにするといいと思います。

汚れてもいい服で行き、着替えを持って行きロッカーに預けました。(顔もカバーで覆っていても汚れます。女性はそのまま出かけるようであればクレンジング化粧直しまで持って行くと良いと思います。)
少しでも参考になると幸いです。

Michael (Mike) was our tour guide and created an exceptional experience for us. He was very welcoming and building rapport almost seemed second nature for him. He knew how to keep the audience engaged during the entire experience. The ride to pick up and start the event was just about the right length of time. I especially liked the fact that he could use a microphone while driving and that everyone in the vehicle could hear him. My family had our eyes opened on the lush landscape, history, and culture that Hawaii has to offer. Mike ensured that every angle was covered, and I honestly wish we could have strapped an audio recorder to him so we could capture all that he had to share. We all had ample time at the stops for swimming and pics. Mike was even nice enough to make an additional jump off the waterfall cliff with my go pro (I shared that video, feel free to use it) as I wasn’t brave enough to take that plunge. Our only constructive feedback on this event would be to tighten up the “meet up” process at the local shops. We were unsure where or how we needed to check in. Once we saw the white van arrive with the logo we understood.

Sammie was our pilot, and we were fortunate enough that it was just our family on the flight. She made us all feel extremely welcomed and took the time to learn our names, which made our flight that much better. We also all enjoyed the fact that our pilot was an instructor and a female (the world needs more female pilots) With a smaller group it’s easier to be more open and ask more questions about what you’re seeing. No one in our family has ever ridden on a helicopter, but we have all flown and it was awesome!! Planes can only maneuver so much, but helicopters give you a different look and feel of flying. Regardless of where you are sitting you get the opportunity to see all that nature has to offer firsthand. It’s also nice to know that everything was being videoed so you can spend more time looking and less time trying to capture it on your phone. She also was a wealth of knowledge around all things in Hawaii and offered recommendations on additional things for us to see.

Our tour guide was ready and waiting for us at the airport as we landed from the helicopter tour with Sammie. He was extremely welcoming and easily buildings one on one relationships with people. He had a very rich background of experiences which he easily incorporated into all aspects of the tour. From local language, culture, history, nature, driving habits of locals vs. tourists, and stops to get one of a kind eats (shave ice… not shaved ice) we experienced it all. My family was the only group, so we all got to spread out and experience that limo van. We had a beachside lunch overlooking black sand beach and got to experience local foods and stories of the area. We got time to visit the beach and got some great pics within a lava tube. The beach was a little busy, but we still found a spot. He also had a vast knowledge of everything we drove by and experienced. We were also surprised at how smooth the ride was. We had just done the Garden of the Gods a few days before.

This was our first experience on Hawaii (ever) and we were ecstatic at the outcome. This event is very well coordinated with scheduling and the showtimes. Since this was our very first time, we also opted for the VIP experiences. My wife, son, and I attended and because we booked online very early, we were at table 2 which was at the stage. Very nice combo of Hawaiian culture, language, meanings, and audience engagement. Food was excellent with multitude of buffet options. My only constructive feedback from this experience would be to reexamine how the check in process is done. Our check in was done in one lone single line and was also rather manual (paper verification and ticketing). Many other VIP ticket holders (ourselves included) found us at the front of the line (standing next to others) asking if we should wait in the line or if we should check in elsewhere. In summary, excellent event that is well worth the time and investment.

I enjoyed this excursion. The hike was fairly strenuous, but I managed. Be sure to hold onto the ropes along the trail as it can be muddy and slippery. The big highlight of this activity is when you reach the 60-foot waterfall. I swam out to it and sat beneath it. Awesome! The guide was pleasant and was quite knowledgeable regarding all the flora and fauna. I would recommend this excursion!

This was a really great package that the whole family enjoyed! Snorkelling was amazing and the banana boat was a blast. It was very comfortable that the boat stays docked so you can find shade, drinks, and any of the items you need throughout the time on the sandbar. Highly recommend!

Captain Jill, Silas, and Jen provided an amazing trip, complete with hundreds of spinner dolphins passing the boat along the way to Lanai.
The snorkeling near Lanai was incredible, with crystal clear water, beautiful coral, sea turtles, spotted eagle rays, huge schools of fish, and a baby octopus! My family and I could have stayed in that first snorkeling spot all day! All of us would highly recommend this trip. The captain and crew were knowledgeable, professional and fun. It was one of the best snorkeling trips we have ever taken.

We attended the 9pm experience and it was absolutely worth every cent as well as the late hour. We were completely surrounded by manta rays, there were at least a dozen feeding within inches of the group. There were bottlenose dolphin hunting at the edges of the lighted area and we were even visited by a small shark. Everything a Hawaiian night snorkel should be!

The guides were professional and knowledgeable and truly provided an outstanding experience.

I would recommend a light jacket for the 20 minute boat ride to and from the dive sight if you get cold easily. I was in swim trunks and a long sleeve rash guard and I was fine, but my wife was a bit chilly on the trip back.

We would 100% do this experience again!

It was the best entertainment where I could enjoy the live performances of global singers Elvis Presley and Michael Jackson!

The show began by reflecting on Hawaii's musical history, starting with ethnic music and hula dancing, gradually building the atmosphere in the venue. After that, the two entertainers mentioned above appeared, and the audience reached a peak of excitement. Of course, it was an impersonation, but the concert show felt so lifelike right in front of me that even I, usually quiet, became enthusiastic! As a Michael Jackson fan, it felt like I was seeing Michael, who can now only be experienced through live DVDs, right in front of me.

There was also a fire dance, making it a content-rich experience to enjoy Hawaiian culture.

I signed up for a buffet plan before the show opened, and the food was delicious, making it a very satisfying experience.

世界的なシンガーであるエルヴィス・プレスリーやマイケル・ジャクソンのライブを堪能することができる最高のエンターテイメントでした！

ハワイの音楽史を振り返るという形で、民族音楽とフラダンスから始まり次第に会場の雰囲気が高まっていきます。その後、上記２人のエンターティナーがそれぞれ登場し、オーディエンスが最高潮に達しました。もちろんモノマネではありますが、まるで生き写しのようなコンサートショーが目の前で行われ、思わず普段おとなしい私も熱狂！特にマイケル・ジャクソンファンの私としては、今やライブDVDでしかお目にかかれないマイケルが目の前にいるような感覚でした。

その他ファイアーダンスもあったりと、ハワイ文化も十分に楽しめる内容となっていました。

また私はショー開園前のビュッフェ付プランで申し込みましたが、食事も美味しく非常に満足のいく内容でした。

Everything from the snorkeling practice to the sea turtle watching and snorkeling around the coral was amazing. The burgers for lunch were also incredibly delicious! There was a Japanese interpreter, so I was able to enjoy it without any worries! I got to see sea turtles multiple times, and the coral was beautiful, but the fish swimming around were also really stunning! I would love to go again if I have the chance!

シュノーケリングの練習からウミガメウォッチングからサンゴの周りのシュノーケリング全て最高でした。
また昼食のバーガーも最高に美味しかったです‼️
日本語の通訳さんもおられたので安心して楽しめました‼️
ウミガメが何回もみれてサンゴも綺麗かったですが周りを泳いでる魚も凄く綺麗でした‼️
機会があればまた行きたいと思います‼️

Amazing and warm welcoming staff on every corner; the performances are top notch, we were entertained to a great FINALE show, Buffet Dinner was overwhelming!

We loved and enjoyed learning a lot of things about the Polynesian culture! All the performances were just by fat the best. I love the activities in each country that you can participate in, hands on and fun too!

My son is a typical “everything boring” esp by the wnd of the day, but as soon as the lights went off for the “HA” show he was mesmerized and totally enjoyed it.

We wanted to experience the LUAU dinner but I think we did not look through good enough with the package we bought. Buffet Dinner was not bad at all…just missed seeing a traditional lu’au

Next time!

Nice people, beautiful weather, and a great sunset!

It was a very nice tour, from the captain to the whole crew super nicely, I felt safety at all times, very explanatory the stops, rules and Safet. The food was delicious they gave us grill hamburgers they were super. I loved their
Hospitality they had the best attitude. They were very welcoming gave us recommendations and they even played with all of the us volleyball. Helped us take
Pictures I will do
This again

Great sunset tour. Team was warm and friendly. We were able to see many dolphins, offered to take photos and turned around so we could get better pictures of the sunset.

We were impressed by the tour guides knowledge of the Valley and the breathtaking beauty of an unspoiled and barely populated part of the island. We saw wild Mustangs, countless birds, streams and experienced seeing the valley upclose. Just seeing the valley from a lookout point doesn’t compare to going down into the valley. Don’t miss out on this shuttle experience, it will leave you impressed!

Participated in the PM session. Hotel pickup at 11:00.
I was hungry... feeling anxious...
Surprisingly, snacks and juice were free, and we got one spam onigiri each.
That was great!
Even though I've participated many times, I wish I had watched the tide come in and out.
The tide was close to high... I want to go during low tide next time.
I was able to walk with the turtles while paddleboarding and snorkeling.

We participated as a couple to celebrate my 60th birthday. I felt secure participating in Japanese, and the experience exceeded my expectations in terms of satisfaction. Even though I'm not good at swimming, I had a great time fish watching in the water! It was a pity that we didn't encounter any honu (sea turtles).

還暦記念に夫婦で参加しました。日本語で安心して参加できて内容も思った以上の満足度でした。
泳ぎが苦手な私も楽しく水の中でフィッシュウォッチングできました！
ホヌに出会えなかったのは残念でした。

It was an incredibly fun experience racing around the wild course. I dashed through the dust kicked up by the buggy in front of me, getting covered in mud from head to toe, and that was enjoyable too.

ワイルドなコースを走り廻り想像以上の楽しい体験でした。前のバギーからの土埃の中を疾走し、頭から足まで泥まみれでこれも楽しかったです。

Will be doing this again next year for sure! Crew and the band were awesome

It was a bit murky in the afternoon, but I was able to see fish clearly at certain points, and although from a distance, I also saw a turtle, so I was satisfied. I didn't use the Japanese guide because I wasn't sure when to listen to it. However, I think it's a tour that can be enjoyed fully without the staff guide or the Japanese guide if you love the ocean and fish.

午後からの出向で少し濁っていましたが、ポイントポイントではしっかりと魚を見ることができたし、遠目でしたが亀も見れたので満足です。
日本語ガイドは聴くタイミングがよくわからなかったので使いませんでした。
でも、海や魚が好きならスタッフのガイドも日本語ガイドも無くても十分に楽しめるツアーだと思います。

I initially wanted to book this my first time in Hawaii back in 2021 but it was sold out. I decided to pre book before my trip this year. I am so glad I did. Me and my boyfriend had the best time. The views and history are just incredible. Our tour guides knew so much history and we were so amazed. The UTV was so much fun. You should DEFINITELY bring something to cover your face or you will be eating a lot of dirt. I would totally book this tour again. Totally worth it!

I inquired several times about the meeting place, but I was worried as the date approached without any clear information. I finally received a notice just before the event, which put my mind at ease. The instructor, Allen, provided precise guidance, and I had a great time. I was thrilled that we were able to buy local fruits at the farmers' market, and they even prepared wet towels for us. If I had been more fluent in English, it would have been even better. I'll do my best for next time.

集合場所など、問合せを何回かしましたが、分からないまま日程が過ぎて心配でした。
直前にお知らせをもらって、やっと安心できました。
インストラクターのアレンが、的確に指導してくれたこともあり、楽しい時間を過ごせました。
ファーマーズマーケットで、特産の果物を買ってくださり、おしぼりまで用意してもらい、感激です。
私が英語堪能だったら、もっともっと最高でした。
次に向けてガンパリます。

The friendly staff makes it easy for beginners to enjoy surfing right away, so you can feel at ease. After just 10 minutes of practice, we were able to try it in the ocean! Half of us were able to stand up on the first wave! The waves were great, and we participated in both private and group lessons with five people, and everyone was satisfied!

明るいスタッフで初心者でも楽しめるサーフィンが直ぐに出来るから安心です。
10分立つ練習したら海で実践！半数は1回目の波で立つことが出来ました！
波も良くで、5人でプライベートとグループレッスンと分かれて参加しましたが、全員満足出来ました！

There were many reviews recommending the buggy, so I decided to participate, and it was amazing! My wife, who is a paper driver, also drove, and she only almost veered into the bushes right after a downhill curve! She said it was really fun!! During the trip, we could switch drivers three times when we got out for photo opportunities, so if you're anxious about driving but want to try, I recommend starting from the beginning. Goggles and helmets are available for rent, but the dust from the buggy was intense, and my nose and mouth area turned completely black. Having a scarf or a snug mask like bikers use would make photo sessions smoother?! Still, it's better to have wet wipes as well. I read that someone mentioned it was cold when it rained, and we also had a sudden rain shower during our time, so you definitely get wet. If the weather looks bad, it might be a good idea to bring a poncho or raincoat from a dollar store.

バギーを勧めるレビューが多かったのでどんなものかと参加しましたが最高でした！
ペーパードライバーの妻も運転しましたが
下り坂直後のカーブで草むらに突込みかけただけですみました！とても楽しかったそうです！！
途中3回写真撮影で下車する時に交代出来るので
運転に不安があるけどしてみたい方はスタートからがお勧めです
ゴーグルとヘルメットは貸出ありですがバギーの土埃が凄く鼻口周りは真っ黒になりました
バイカーがするようなスカーフや密着するマスクがあると写真撮影もスムーズにできる⁈
それでもウエットティッシュもあった方がいいです
雨だと降り込んできて寒かったと書いてる方がいて、私たちの時もにわか雨がありましたが確かに濡れます
天気が悪そうなら100均などのポンチョやレインコートを持って行った方がいいかと

Every member of the staff was phenomenal. The live music was perfect, and they had a great (DJ style) song list that played while we were out on the water. It was convenient to be able to grab hot food or snacks and beverages at the dock. There was plenty of room on the boat and we didn't feel overcrowded. The one thing I would improve is the size of the activity area. I specifically signed up to kayak, and found that the only option was to just row in a big circle (the area was identified by bouyies). My friend also snorkeled, but there wasn't much to see at that time of day. I think the best part of the trip was when one of the staff members offered to take a few of us out on a small speed boat around the reef. We found that it was affordable and convenient to pay extra for pick-up and drop off.

We really enjoyed our visit to Maui Ocean Center. The displays were very educational- we learned so mych about Hawaii’s marine eco system. And the fish and aquatic tanks were AMAZING! We will definitely return on our next trip!

We went to a black sand beach, bakery ( try the malasadas they're amazing), craters, lava field, lava tube, and steam vents. We didn't get to try their lunch because someone in the group was car sick(hard to eat when someone is vomiting right in front of you)
For the helicopter ride we went down the coastline instead of over the volcanoes due to weather around there. The pilot was amazing! He was very knowledgeable, funny, and friendly.
This tour would have been a lot better if it wasn't raining (rains there a lot so bring a raincoat just incase) and we didn't have someone who got carsick. That wasn't the tours fault and I definitely would do this tour again.
