I had a great time getting soaked at the front of the boat in the ocean. It was so much fun! Also, the movie location tour was great because I got to see various places.

オーシャンで船の先に捕まり波を受けてずぶ濡れになって楽しみました。最高に楽しかったです。あと映画ロケ地巡りツアーはいろいろ見れてよかったです。

Had an amazing time with Captain Bruce on the Kaneohe sand bar cruise! From the get-go, Jeff, Josiah, and Karen were super kind and welcoming, making sure everyone on board felt at ease. They had snacks and drinks ready for us, which was a nice touch.

One of the highlights for me was definitely swimming with the turtles. It’s not every day you get to do that! And I’ve got to give a special shoutout to Karen. She was a real star, especially with my mom who's a bit uneasy in the water. Karen made sure she felt safe and enjoyed her snorkeling experience. Plus, the way she helped us retrieve my dad's forgotten sunglasses turned into a hilarious moment we all shared.

This trip is a must-do for families looking for a fun and memorable day out on the water. I’m already looking forward to my next trip with them. Absolutely a 10/10 recommendation!

My group loves this activity. We booked the ATV package with shuttle, which is the convenience. The shuttle bus was on time, make sure you should be 10-15 minutes early.

The shuttle bus is comfortable and clean with recliner chairs, food rest, and good AC. We were dropped off an hour prior our tour, so we can have some food at the cafe.

The tour guides gave us the clear instruction and they made sure we followed them. It is slightly more than 2-hour tour as it was raining and windy. *** We under forecasted the weather, so we were cold and soaking wet. Please make sure to gear up jackets and raincoats. *** Anyways, it was so fun and adventurous.

The experience from the shuttle pick up/drop off to guidance and snorkeling are exceptional and amazing. We experienced as it detailed on the booking website.

After booking, I received the picture of the pickup location which is easy to find. Keep your eye to find the shuttle van, he parked across the street when there were 3 coach bus parked in front of the entrance. The van showed up on time and could fit up to 14 people. The van is clean, comfortable seating, and good AC. The driver introduced the Electric Beach and talked about the places.

After dropping off, the driver introduced Jose and Jorge who were the snorkeling guides. They are very friendly and acknowledged. One of my friend did not confident to swim in the ocean, but she trusted Jose and went to the water with us. Jose and Jorge made sure everyone stick together under their guidance. All the gears (snorkeling masks, fins, life jackets, jet machines) were provided. Jorge had his GoPro to record the fun moment and shared to us at the end.

My group loves this experience as many of us had no swimming experience but Jose and Jorge made it easy, fun, and safe.

We had the best day!!! From the beautiful weather, the calm kayak conditions, the lush hiking environment, the spectacular falls and our amazing guide Justice, we could not have had a better experience. Justice was incredibly friendly, super knowledgeable, funny (dad jokes lol), patient and an overall great guide who thoroughly enjoys what he does.
As novice kayakers, we had no issues but the river was very calm with very little wind.
As intermediate hikers we found the trail fairly easy to navigate as long as we were mindful on the rocks and roots. On the hike, you WILL get muddy and you WILL get wet crossing 4 streams and 1 river but it’s all worth it once you reach the breathtaking falls.
The lunch supplied by the tour was pretty good too as we picnicked at the falls.
Hiking shoes/sandals or running shoes are best. For anyone with mobility issues, they may find parts of the hike difficult.
We would highly recommend this tour as it was the highlight of our time on Kauai!!

Yoshi is a wonderful passionate guide. I can not say enough about our sunset and stargazing experience. Yoshi not only loves what he does but shared that excitement with all of us on the tour. Our tour ended up just being our family of 5 (ages 73, 60, 31, 30 and 29). The knowledge and laughter Yoshi shared with us along with his special spot for viewing was absolutely amazing. He also shared donuts, hot tea/coffee, blankets, chairs and coats. This was welcomed as the temperature dips after the sun goes down (even for Buffalo, NY natives). The stargazing we did with his telescopes and the knowledge he shared of how to take some very interesting photos was wonderful. I would not only recommend this tour to all but will take it again if I find myself in Maui again.

Thank you Yoshi for such a memorable family experience.

We boarded a boat and landed on the sandbar. It was a strange sensation to be in the middle of the ocean yet find sand beneath us. It was a bit chilly during this time.

船に乗って、サンドバーに上陸。
海のど真ん中なのに、サンドがある不思議な感覚を味わえました。この時期は少し寒かった。

Great fun time, staff very friendly and helpful. Kid friendly

In Japan, horseback riding experiences usually last about 10 to 20 minutes, but here you can enjoy a longer ride! You can bring items like your phone or a plastic bottle. If you have a bag that you can attach to your waist, it's also okay to bring that.

The local staff seemed to speak some simple Japanese, and they kindly said things like, "Sister, hold the reins." They were very nice. The horses looked calm, so I didn't feel scared at all. I had a great time experiencing this that day! Thank you very much!

I forgot about the tip... I had put my wallet in the locker, and the staff member who helped me went off to her next job quickly, so I couldn't give it in the end. It might be a good idea to keep some cash for tips in your pocket. That way, you can hand it over smoothly after the horseback riding experience.

Experiencing horseback riding in such a beautiful setting has truly become a wonderful memory! If you're hesitating, I definitely recommend signing up. I think it will become a lovely memory! ♡

日本では10〜20分程度の乗馬体験が多いですが、ここは時間たっぷり乗馬が体験できます！！携帯、ペットボトル位であれば持ち込み可。腰につけるタイプのカバンなら持ち込んでもOKでした。
現地のスタッフさんは簡単な日本語を話せるみたいで「オネエサン、タヅナヒイテ」等声をかけてくれました。とっても優しかったです。馬も穏やかそうで怖い思いはしませんでした。この日は楽しく体験することができました！ありがとうございました！！
チップの事を忘れてしまっていて…財布はロッカーにいれちゃったし担当してくれたお姉さんはすぐ次のお仕事に行っちゃったしで…結局渡せませんでした。自分のポケットにチップ分のお札をいれておくといいかもしれません。そしたら乗馬体験が終わったらスマートに渡せると思います。
最高な景色の中で乗馬を体験できるのは本当にいい思い出になりました！迷ってる方はぜひ申し込んでみてください。素敵な思い出になると思います♡

Really happy with the experience, my son and I loved it. He is a comfortable swimmer, while I just started learning a month ago. He felt comfortable enough to snorkel without holding onto the buoy used by our guide, while I did not yet. It was a perfect introduction to snorkeling in a safe environment.

From start to finish the crew is extremely helpful, and fun! This is the best zip line experience I have ever had, definitely book this for your trip!

Great 1st impression in Hawaii! It was so welcoming!! Friendly, helped us get where we needed to go for rental car.

There are Japanese staff members, and there are videos and explanations available for Japanese visitors, so it's reassuring! The horseback riding experience goes by in just two hours. It seems that the speed and course can vary depending on the horse's mood that day, so for those who absolutely want to see the filming of the movie, I recommend the bus tour or the buggy ride. It was great to enjoy the beautiful scenery and experience something out of the ordinary, but my knees and back... haha, just a heads up that it will catch up with you later. I would love to experience it again if I have the chance! ^_^

日本人スタッフの方がいたり、日本の方向けにビデオや説明書きがあるので安心です！
乗馬体験は2時間あっという間です。お馬さんのご機嫌でスピードやその日によってコースが違うようなので、映画の撮影を絶対に見たい！という方にはバスのツアーやバギーの方がおすすめです。
綺麗な景色をみて非日常感を味わえてよかったのですが、膝と腰が…笑　後々きますのでご注意ください。機会があればまた体験したいです^_^

My first experience with the four-wheel buggy at Kualoa Ranch was worth every penny, and I was very satisfied. The check-in was smooth, and the briefing started on time. The local staff who assisted us were friendly. Kualoa Ranch itself has a vast area, so driving the buggy while enjoying the pleasant breeze and scenery was a lot of fun. During the two-hour experience, we stopped the buggy three times to get off and take photos, and listening to the history of the land in Hawaii made it very fulfilling.

初めてのクアロアランチでの四輪バギー体験はお値段以上でとても大満足でした。チェックインもスムーズで時間通りに説明も始まりました。担当して下さった現地のスタッフさんもフレンドリーでした。クアロアランチ自体が広大な土地を持っているので四輪バギーをひたすら運転して心地よい風と景色でとても楽しかったです。2時間の中に3回のみバギーを停めて降りて写真撮影ができたり、ハワイの土地の歴史の説明を聞いたらとても大満足でした。

I traveled to Hawaii with my 7-year-old daughter. She wanted to see a show in Hawaii, so we participated in this one. It was a bit windy on the rooftop, but we enjoyed the food and drinks. We chose the primary seat, and it was the right decision! We were guided to our seats first, and we could also get our food ahead of others. It was a relief for us with a child, as there was little waiting time. The restrooms were conveniently located inside the building, so we could step out during the show and return quickly, allowing us to fully enjoy the performance. The fire show in the front row was incredibly impressive! We were both very satisfied.

7歳娘との2人旅でのハワイでした。娘がハワイのショーを見てみたいとのことで、こちらに参加しました。屋上で少し風が強い日でしたが、料理や飲み物も楽しめました。primary seatにしましたが、正解！優先的に席に誘導してもらえ、料理も優先的に取りに行けました。子連れには待ち時間が少なくて助かりました。お手洗いも建物の中にすぐあるのでショーの途中離席してもすぐ戻れてショーを存分に楽しめました。最前列のファイヤーショーは迫力満点！親子で大満足でした。

It was my first time on a boat in the ocean. The captain and crew were attentive and friendly.

We participated as a couple over the age of 60. Since we were there, we decided to go to the top floor. We dressed in a way that didn't require us to touch the code. By the window, there were couples from various countries who seemed to be newlyweds, immersed in their own world, while the center seats were mostly families enjoying their meals, the scenery, and jazz. During the Memorial Day event, there was a sense of unity in celebration, but everyone enjoyed themselves at their own pace at their respective tables. Of course, we also had a leisurely and relaxed time.

The entrance to the stern was close, and it was great to see the fireworks as well as the hotel buildings on both sides. After the fireworks, when I held the door to keep it from closing like a doorman, everyone thanked me. Even a Japanese person said thank you, and we all laughed together as we realized we were fellow passengers. The food was delicious, and the portions were just right. My wife was also satisfied and very happy. Unfortunately, there was no welcome from the captain. I hope for improvement in that area. This year, I would like to try a different deck.

還暦を過ぎた夫婦２人で参加しました。折角ならと最上階へ。コードに触れない程度の服装で参加しました。窓際は新婚さんと思しき各国のカップルさんが、自分達の世界に浸り、センター席はファミリーが多く思い思いに食事、風景、ジャズを楽しんでいました。メモリアルデーイベントでは、お祝いで一体感となりましたが、各自のテーブルごとそれぞれのペースで楽しんでいました。勿論我々ものんびり、ゆったりの時間でした。

船尾への出入り口が近く、花火は勿論、ホテル群が左右に見渡せ良かったです。
花火の後、ドアマンの如くドアが閉まるのを抑えていたら、皆さんにサンキュウと言われました。日本人の方にも言われ、乗客の一人ですとお互い大笑いでした。
料理は美味しく、量も丁度良かったです。妻も満足し、大変喜んでいました。
残念ながら、船長出迎えは有りませんでした。改善を望みます。
今年は別のデッキにトライしたいと思います。

On the night of my arrival in Hawaii, I participated in the VIP course. It was less than a 10-minute walk from the Hyatt Regency Waikiki Resort & Spa, even at a leisurely pace with my mother in her 60s, and I found the location easily.

When I showed the voucher screen on my smartphone, a Japanese staff member assisted me at the reception, and the process was smooth. There were also restrooms nearby, which was reassuring.

After attaching a sticker name tag to my clothing and heading to the designated seat, I was served a welcome Mai Tai and pineapple. The Mai Tai could be chosen as alcoholic or non-alcoholic. I thought the buffet would start right away, but it actually took some time as there were ukulele performances and photo opportunities before the meal.

Thanks to the VIP course, I was able to go to the buffet first. While it wasn't quite at the level of a hotel buffet, I thought there was a decent variety. The meat was delicious and there were many options. There was no Japanese beer available. The friendly staff constantly checked in and made sure we were taken care of.

When I heard that the meeting time was at 5:15 PM and the show would start around 7:40 PM, I worried I might have too much time to kill before the show, but while enjoying the meal and watching the dance, the time flew by. After the dance performance, it was time for the dessert buffet, and then we finally moved to the show venue.

The show venue was a bit chilly, so I was glad I brought a cardigan. Sitting in the front row of the VIP seats was too close to see well, so I moved to the second row. All the dancers had lovely smiles throughout, changing costumes and coming out multiple times. Elvis's vocal power was amazing, and he came down to the audience, which really got everyone excited.

At the beginning of the show, we were informed that photos without flash were allowed, but I was so focused on watching the stage that I completely forgot to take any pictures, which I regret.

The performance by the Michael Jackson impersonator was fantastic. He sang all of Michael's favorite songs, and it filled my heart with joy. At the end, I got to shake hands and take a photo together. It seems that those who purchased the paid commemorative photos taken during the meal could also get autographs.

It was a very satisfying night on my first day in Hawaii. I wanted to see the show again during my stay, but unfortunately, my schedule was full on other nights, so I gave up. I wish there had been a daytime performance as well. I'll look forward to it the next time I visit Hawaii.

ハワイに到着した日の夜に、VIPコースに参加しました。
滞在したハイアット・リージェンシーワイキキリゾートホテルから、60代の母とゆっくり歩いても10分以内で、場所もすぐ分かりました。
スマホのバウチャー画面を見せると、日本人の方が受付してくれ、スムーズな対応でした。
お手洗いもすぐ近くにあり安心です。

シールタイプのネームを服にはりつけ、案内された席へ行くと、ウェルカムマイタイとパイナップルが出され、マイタイはアルコール、ノンアルコールと選べます。
すぐにビュッフェがスタートかと思っていましたが、ウクレレを弾きに来たり、写真を撮りにきたり、食事まで意外と時間がかかりました。

VIPコースのおかげで、一番先にビュッフェを取りに行けました。ホテルビュッフェとまではいきませんが、ある程度、種類がある方だと思いました。お肉も種類が多くて美味しかったです。
日本のビールはありませんでした。
フレンドリーなスタッフ達が常に声をかけて、気にかけてくれます。

現地集合時間が17時15分でショーの開演が19時40分頃だと聞いた時は、ショーまで時間をもて余すのではと思っていたのですが、食事をしながらダンスを見ているとあっという間でした。
ダンスパフォーマンスが終わると今度はデザートのビュッフェになり、その後いよいよショーの会場へ移動です。

ショーの会場は少し肌寒く、カーディガンを持っていって良かったです。VIPシートの最前列だと近すぎて見えにくかったので、２列目に移動させて頂きました。
どのダンサーさん達も、終始素敵な笑顔で、衣装を変えては何度も出てきます。
エルビスさんの声量が凄かったのと、客席まで降りて来てくれて大盛り上がりでした。

ショーの最初に、フラッシュなしの写真撮影はOKと案内がありましたが、ステージを見るのに必死で、撮影するのをすっかり忘れてしまい１枚も写真を撮らなかった事を後悔しています。

お目当てのマイケル・ジャクソンさんのパフォーマンスは素晴らしかったです。マイケルの大好きな歌ばかりを歌ってくれて胸がいっぱいでした。
最後に握手と、一緒に写真を撮ってもらいました。食事の時に撮った有料の記念写真を購入した方には、サインもして頂けるようです。

ハワイ初日から、大満足の夜でした。
滞在中にもう1度ショーを見に行きたかったのですが、あいにく他の日の夜は予定が埋まっており、諦めました。
昼の公演もあれば良かったです。
また次回ハワイへ行った時のお楽しみにしておきます。

I highly recommend this company and their tours for their service and convenience. Each member of the crew was attentive and full of advice, facts about the area, and all clearly loved their jobs. The dock was easy to get to, no walking for miles to find an out-of-the-way pickup location. Finally, the food was delicious and it was nice not to have to bring my own. Same with the snorkeling masks and the sunscreen.

My husband and I were looking for a romantic way to cap off our week in Hawaii, and this was the perfect cruise for us. We were looking for something “quintessentially” Hawaiian and what is more iconic than a sunset dinner cruise? We are also both big history buffs, so we booked this tour based on the descriptions about the knowledgeable captain and crew, and they did not disappoint! They were full of commentary and stories about their island, and very patient answering all of our stupid questions. Mahalo and aloha, wish we could stay there!

My husband and two teenagers loved this kayak adventure! Our guides were very friendly, funny and calm. Jay was very informative and gave us a wonderful history lesson on the island and its culture. He did a wonderful job preparing us for our journey and guiding us through the river and ocean. We did make the journey to the farthest beach on the ocean and it was well worth it! We snorkeled with some sea turtles and enjoyed our time at the beach.

It was a great way to finish up our trip on Kauai. I appreciate all that our guides did to inform us and keep us safe as well as teach us about the island and its culture. I would highly recommend this!

Family had great time..had a little rain but it rains every day here in Honolulu and didn’t stop anything and had a rainbow after..would definitely recommend this Luau…

About 15 years ago, I participated in the same luau as an option on a tour, but back then it was outdoors, so I was a little disappointed that this time it was indoors. I arrived at the meeting place 30 minutes before the opening time, but there were already 7 or 8 groups ahead of me. While waiting, I was able to talk with an elderly couple from New Jersey who stood behind me, and thanks to their patience with my broken English, the time flew by until we entered the venue. Since I lined up early, the table we were guided to was right behind the high-priced tables, making it very easy to see the show. The food and drinks were delicious, and I was very satisfied with the spectacular show. If the yen becomes a bit stronger, I would like to participate again. At the end, I took a photo with one of the dancers from the show, and my wife was also very happy with the night. *I declined the commemorative photo taken at the beginning because it was expensive.

15年くらい前にツアーについていたオプションで同じルアウに参加したことがあったが、その時は屋外だったのが今回は室内だったのが少しだけ残念だった。
開場時間の30分前に集合場所に行ったが既に7〜8組が前にいた。
待っている際に後ろに並んだニュージャージーから来られていた年配の
ご夫婦と話をすることができ、片言の英語に付き合っていただいたおかげで
あっという間に会場となった。
早めに並んだので案内されたテーブルは高いコースのテーブルのすぐ後ろでとても見やすい席だった。
料理もお酒も美味しくいただき、圧巻のショーにとても満足することができた。
もう少し円高になれば、また参加したいと思った。
最後にショーのダンサー？の方と一緒に写真を撮っていただき、妻も大満足の夜でした。
※最初に撮っていただいた記念写真は高額のためお断りした。

Experience a 2-hour buggy ride!
With plenty of time, we took turns driving!

Anyone can drive if they have a Japanese driver's license!
Driving is easy, just like a golf cart, so anyone can do it.

Our handsome guide provided instructions in English.
Since we are not very good at English, there were many parts we couldn't understand, but he took lots of photos and videos for us!

The weather was unpredictable, and it started to rain, so having a raincoat would be nice! However, most people managed without one! We also didn't use a raincoat, but the buggy has a cover, so we didn't get too wet!

However, it was windy and cold, so we wore a hoodie over our tank tops and took it off at times!
This information is from early April 2024, so please keep it in mind!

バギーを2時間体験！
2時間たっぷりなので運転は交代でしました！

日本の免許証があれば誰でも運転できます！
ゴルフのカートのように運転は簡単で
誰でもできます。

イケメンガイドさんが英語で案内してくれました。
私たちは英語があまり得意ではないので
理解できないところが多々ありましたが
写真や動画をたくさん撮ってくださいました！

途中で雨が降ってきたりと
天気は読めないのでカッパがあったら
いいですね！でもほとんどの方が
カッパを使わずに過ごしてました！
私たちもカッパは使用せずでしたが
バギーはちゃんと上の部分があるので
そんなに濡れませんでした！

ただ、風が吹いていて寒かったので
タンクトップの上にパーカーを着たり、
脱いだりしました！
2024年４月上旬の情報なので
参考にしてください！

My friend really enjoyed it, so we decided to join the tour with transportation included. Since my friend came before the pandemic, it seems that some things have changed. We spoke with a guide who was wearing a badge from Japan and got an explanation, and we toured the center with the guided option. Thanks to the guide's arrangements, we were able to see almost everything in the park, and it was a fulfilling day. My friend said it was even better than the last time they visited, and we were able to have various experiences!

友達がとてもよかったのでもう一度行きたいとのことで送迎付きでツアー参加。
友達は、コロナ前のに来たので少し様子が変わってしまったようで日本のバッチをつけているガイドさんに声をかけて説明してもらい、ガイド付のオプションでセンター内を見学しました。ガイドさんのはからいで園内ほとんど廻れて充実した１日でよかったです。
友達も前回来たときよりも充実してたと言ってました、色々な体験もできました！

Loved the tour and was fun to see where all the movies were shot! Our guide was amazing! Would highly recommend going with your family! We only did the movie tour but there are a lot of other tours that seemed great!

This was an amazing place with very informative information about Fiji, Tonga, Tahiti, Somoa, Hawaii, and other Polynesian islands. The Gateway Buffet was good with good variety and the Ha Life of Breath show was absolutely amazing! Highly recommend visiting!

While my child was playing alone, a local child came over and played together with them a lot! Although some areas closed due to the strong wind, the slides and kids' area were well-equipped, and there were about three staff members in each area, which made me feel safe.

子どもが1人で遊んでいたら、現地の子が声をかけてくれて、たくさん一緒に遊んでくれました！
風が強くて、途中からクローズしてしまった所もありましたが、滑り台もキッズエリアも充実していて、監視員さんが1エリアに3人くらいいて安心です。

My hubby and I took our 9 and 5 year old on this Sandbar trip. It was a short boat ride out & the kids never got motion sickness.

Tour guide was very thoughtful and had a bunch of water toys for everyone, we had canoes, SUP, volley ball and various water sports stuff to go around.

It took 3-3.5 hours which is just perfect and right when we got tired it was time to head back.

The band playing music was very good and this is a nod to the singer as he was clearly a talent and easy on the eyes

This trip was great!! Just enough tabs priced reasonably oh and bring your own snacks & booze!! That was cool they let us pack our own munchies!

We enjoyed the cruise very much very enjoyable nice weather
