Our family had an absolute blast on the UTV tour. Our guides were fantastic, the drive was exciting and the sites were amazing. We will definitely recommend this to others. This whole ranch is a must see if you are on Oahu.

Great river tour boat ride when wind on the island was difficult elesewhere. Great service!!

We did the Raptor Tour and tremendously enjoyed it. The views are great! I was the only woman who drove raptor ATV in this group, there was no any problem and it was fun driving the mule. I highly recommend. It is expensive but worth it and will create a great memory.

I did parasailing, banana boating, and jet skiing.

For parasailing, we were transported to the dedicated boat on another boat! Once we were seated at the back of the boat with the parasailing equipment attached, the reel extended, and we soared into the sky! I didn't pay for the extra fee, so we went up to 90 meters, but it was more than enough to enjoy! Whether you get dropped into the sea when you return is up to luck! (laughs) There’s space on the edge of the boat to store your belongings, so you can bring towels and valuables without worry!

For banana boating, we moved from the parasailing boat to the floating boat. You can choose between a bumper tube and a banana boat! The banana boat is for groups. It can accommodate about 6 to 8 people, but there were handles for up to 12 people just in case.

For jet skiing, you can ride solo or with a partner, and you drive it yourself! They teach you how to ride at the beginning. There are four floats set up in a square, and we just kept going around and around them. During the 30 minutes, if you're on a two-person jet ski, you switch drivers at a separate float.

As for other personal concerns:
- There are lockers on the floating boat like those in schools, so there's always someone around, so no need to worry. If you're concerned, you can check your belongings right after returning.
If something gets stolen, there's no way to escape on the sea!
- There were staff members who could speak Japanese or at least communicate in broken Japanese!
- The only place to change is the restroom.
- There are no showers! You can rinse off with a large bucket on the floating boat.
- Depending on the season, a bath towel or cover-up is essential.
- Flip-flops are sufficient.
- I brought my smartphone in a waterproof case. It was okay to take photos in the air! Do so at your own risk!
- Tips are appreciated! There was some pressure to tip in visible areas! (laughs)
- We rented a car for transportation, so that might not be very helpful!
- There were always GoPros set up, and when we returned to the office, they showed us the photos and videos, and we could purchase what we wanted. By the way, we only bought the parasailing photos for about $57. (My husband got seasick during parasailing and gave up taking photos himself, so he was out of luck! lol)

I hope this information is helpful!

パラセーリング、バナナボート、ジェットスキーをしました

【パラセーリング】専用ボートまで別のボートで配送され乗り移りました！
パラ専用の器具が取り付けられ、ボートの後ろに座ると、リールが伸びて大空へ！
追加料金は払わなかったので90mでしたが、十分満喫できました！
戻って来た時海に落とされるか否かは運次第！笑
ボートの淵に荷物を仕舞い込めるスペースがあるので、タオル貴重品など持ち込んで大丈夫です！

【バナナボート】パラから配送ボートで浮き舟に移動しました。バンパーチューブと選択できます！バナナボートはグループ単位で乗ります。
6〜8人くらいまでなら？一応12人分取手はついてました。

【ジェットスキー】2人乗り1人乗り、どちらも自分で運転です！はじめに乗り方を教えてもらいます。
浮きが4個四角く設置されており、その周りをひたすらグルグル回り続けました。30分の間に2人乗りは、離れた浮きで運転手交代です。

【その他個人的心配だったこと】
・浮き舟の上には、学校の様なロッカーが設置させており、常に人の目があるから心配ないです。心配なら戻って直ぐ中身を確認してください。
何か取られても海の上なので逃げようがないですので！
・日本語が話せる又は片言で大丈夫なスタッフが常に居ました！
・着替える場所はトイレくらいです。
・シャワーも無いです！浮き舟に大きなバケツで掛け水できるくらいです
・季節によってはバスタオルや羽織ものは必須
・ビーサンくらいで十分です。
・スマホは濡れても大丈夫なケースにいれて行きました。上空でも撮影OKでした！自己責任で！
・チップは気持ち！見える場所に圧はありましたが！笑
・交通手段はレンタカーだったので、あまり参考になりませんね！
・常にGoproが設置されおり、事務所に戻ると写真と動画を見せてくれ、欲しい物を購入出来る様になってました。因みに我が家はパラの写真だけ購入$57くらいです。(旦那がパラで酔ってその後断念し自分で撮影してたのでw)

以上参考になれば幸いです！

We participated as a couple in our 60s. The hotel picked us up on time, explained the operation methods, and we started the sightseeing tour. The explanations were thorough, which made us feel at ease for departure. After that, we visited various places and received clear explanations through the earphones provided, gaining a lot of new knowledge. We also had many photos taken, which made us very satisfied. After returning, we looked at the map and were surprised by the long distance we traveled.

I think the participation fee is high because of the expensive cost of living in America, but it was a satisfying experience. Thank you very much.

60代の夫婦2人で参加させていただきました。
ホテルには時間通り迎えにきてもらい操作方法を説明され観光スタート。丁寧に説明してもらい安心して出発できました。そのあとはいろんな場所を回り、用意していただいたイヤホンからわかりやすい説明してもらい新たな知識をいっぱいいただきました。またたくさんの写真も撮ってもらえて大満足でした。帰ってから地図をみて移動距離の長さにびっくりしました。
物価の高いアメリカだから参加費は高いと思いますが、満足できた体験でした。ありがとうございました。

買い物や食事よりもハワイらしい経験をしたくて、パラセーリングを申し込みましたが、間違いなく記憶に残る素晴らしい経験でした。
小型ボートだけど、ガンガン勢いのある船にのって10名くらいで、パラセーリングを楽しみました。
初めての経験だったのでメチャクチャ怖かったけど、スリル満点で、高校生と大学生の子どもたちは、笑いが止まらず、今回のハワイ旅で経験してよかった、と思います。
ただ、空港到着当日の夕方直接行ったのですが、これは、ハードスケジュールすぎたかも。翌日体にこたえました。船酔いの薬は飲んで参加してよかったです。
人生一度は挑戦してみる価値のある経験だとおまいます。非日常を味わえて、メチャ楽しかったです！

Overall, the experience was awesome! Tyson and the whole crew are wonderful, extremely kind, and helpful. The boat was clean, and I felt safe. The team went above and beyond to make the sandbar and snorkeling a blast!

The music from Kalani was great on the way out to the sandbar. He was so nice, making sure he was delivering the best Ohana. The sandbar was amazing, if it hadn’t been so windy it would have been the perfect day. My son didn’t hesitate to get out on the kayak and SUP. The fish were breathtaking in the reef. We will definitely be back. The staff were so amazing and so ready to help out with anything. We loved it as a family.

Sincerely,
The Murray Family
Reno, NV

A fantastic day trip providing lots of background on the island and an opportunity to view most of it. Russ is a great tour guide and made certain we had a great time. He also provided some recommendations for our afternoon at the beach. I absolutely recommend this tour to anyone looking to get the most out of a day trip to Lanai.

The weather was nice, and the scenery was very beautiful. There was no time to get bored while waiting for activities, as I could see exhibits, shops, and horses. However, since all the explanations were in English, I felt that I could have enjoyed it even more if I understood English, so I deducted one star for that. On the day of the visit, it was a good decision to bring a raincoat based on others' experiences. However, your face and hair will get covered in sand, so it's easier to participate with a simple hairstyle and no makeup.

天候もよくとてもいい景色でした。アクティビティの待ち時間も展示物やショップや馬が見れたりと一切退屈することもありませんでした。
ただすべて英語での説明だったので、英語が理解できたらきっともっと楽しめたのだろうなと思ったので、⭐︎一つ減らした点です。
当日は他の方の体験談をもとにレインコートを持って行って正解でした。ただ、顔と髪は砂まみれになるので、すっぴんでまとめ髪で参加した方が後が楽ですよ。

I chose the 2-hour horseback riding course.
The weather was nice, and the location was perfect.
Unfortunately, the staff accompanying us only spoke English, and I couldn't understand the explanations.
They also took photos for us, which was really great!

2時間乗馬コースにしました。
天気も良く、最高のロケーションでした。
同行してくれるスタッフが英語しか話せない人で説明してくれるのですが分からず、残念でした。
写真も撮ってくださり、すごくよかったです！

It was unfortunately rainy on the day, but it cleared up after about two hours!
At first, it was cold, but I got used to it once I was in the sea.
I was glad to experience various activities like snorkeling and stand-up paddleboarding.
I wanted to see a sea turtle, but unfortunately, I couldn't.
The staff were attentive, and they instructed us to return if we went too far, which made me feel safe while enjoying snorkeling.
There were only about four groups of Japanese people, but a few of them spoke broken Japanese, so we were able to communicate.
They also took photos for us, and I was very satisfied.

当日はあいにくの雨でしたが、2時間ほどで晴れてきました！
最初は寒かったのですが、海に入っていると慣れてきました。
シュノーケリングやサップなどいろいろ体験できてよかったです。
海亀に会いたかったですが、残念ながら会えなかったです。
スタップの方がしっかり見ており、遠くまで行きすぎるとスタッフがすぐに戻ってくるよう指示しており、安心してシュノーケリングも楽しめました。
日本人が4組ほどで少なかったのですが、日本語を片言で話してくださる方が何人かあり意思疎通が取れました。
写真も撮ってくれたり大満足です。

We had the most incredible time touring the Mighty Mo!! Really incredible to stand on a battleship where WWII came to an end. Saffron, our tour guide, was absolutely fantastic!!! She was so informative, interesting and kind. Could listen to her all day! We also met Alvin in the Aviation Museum and really enjoyed listening to him! We had toured the Arizona on our last visit to Hawaii and very much enjoyed that tour. Pearl Harbor is well organized and well worth the visit.

Save, Richard, and James were awesome! The lines were exciting and our guides were great with our kids, including a timid seven year old.

We had an amazing time! The weather was a tad chilly and windy but the crew was so kind and amazing!! 100% recommend! We are a family of 6 with teens and young children! All kids loved it ! So did we !! We were able to all paddle board, snorkel, and swim!

Great luau! A little late for our 3 and 5 year old (no dinner, just the show). But they slept on the benches with our jackets and we were able to enjoy the show. Next time, I would plan this later in the trip than our 2nd night so the kids could have enjoyed it more. Jet lag was tough on the little ones!

I didn't catch a lot, but it was still quite enjoyable! Unfortunately, my child got seasick, so if you're prone to motion sickness, taking medication is a must. If you understand a little bit of English, you'll have a great time. The staff were kind, and when I didn't understand English, they translated for me using their phone. They also prepared the fish right there, and it was delicious! I would love to go again if I have the chance.

いっぱい釣れなかったですが、そこそこ楽しかったです！
残念ながら子供が酔ってしまって、船酔いする方は酔い止め必須です。
英語がすこーしだけ分かれば十分楽しめます。
スタッフの方も親切で、こちらが英語がわからない場合、携帯で翻訳してくれました。
お魚もその場で捌いてくれて、美味しくいただきました！
また機会があれば行きたいです。

Wow should I start off with the most delicious authentic hawaiian food I have ever tried..My whole family cleaned their plate..Including the dessert was delicious..The show was amazing so worth the cost..The host keep us laughing

During the tour, we got off the car and took a walk to a scenic ridge. My 4-year-old grandchild was eager to climb up. It was the best opportunity to be active! The driver was also very kind and accommodating, which helped create wonderful memories.

ツアーの途中で車から降りて景色の良い尾根までの散策がありました。４歳の孫も張り切って登りました。活動できる場面は、最高！ドライバーさんも優しく対応をしてくださり、良い思い出ができました。

Experience was well handled and our guides made it wonderful. Was a fun excursion for our family of four with two children and grandma.

This adventure was just okay. Nothing extra. Nothing fancy. The staff was amazing but the entire experience was nothing impressive.

The horses were quite large, and I was nervous at first, but I gradually got used to it and was able to enjoy both the horseback riding and the surrounding scenery. The guide was very supportive and incredibly cute, which made the experience enjoyable throughout. Each horse had its own personality; mine was very smart, as it was in the lead, my son's horse was a glutton and a bit impatient, my husband's horse was the calmest and most experienced, and my daughter's horse was quite laid-back. After the horseback riding, we had a lively discussion about the horses. My son, who rode the gluttonous horse, was desperately trying to control the reins to stop its appetite, and he ended up with blisters on his hands!

By the way, I had no time to take photos, which is my only regret. The tour itself was wonderful, allowing us to fully enjoy the beautiful scenery of both the sea and the mountains.

Additionally, the Kualoa Burger ($15) we had at the attached cafeteria was exquisite. I regretted not bringing a light jacket because the shuttle bus was quite air-conditioned. The lockers ($5) were convenient as they allowed for all-day access, and credit card payments were accepted. You can bring a water bottle or smartphone in a bag attached to the horse, but there’s no time to drink slowly. Photos can only be taken with one hand, so balance is essential—no dropping allowed.

Our schedule was efficient with a 10 AM pickup, horseback riding at 12:30 PM, and a bus departing at 3:45 PM. However, since there’s a beach within walking distance, I’d like to allow more time to visit it next time. The buggies also looked interesting, so I’d like to try those as well. The burger is a must for next time!

お馬さんがかなり大きくて初めは緊張しましたが徐々に慣れて乗馬も周りの景色も楽しむ余裕が出てきました。ガイドのお姉さんが一生懸命サポートしてくれましたし、とってもキュートな方だったので終始楽しかったです。お馬さんはそれぞれ個性があって、私のお馬さんは先頭を任されるだけあってとても賢い子、息子はその後ろで食いしん坊でせっかちなお馬さん、パパの馬は一番落ち着いててベテランな感じ、娘のお馬さんはかなりののんびり屋さん。乗馬が終わってからもお馬さん談義に花が咲きました。特に食いしん坊なお馬さんに乗っていた息子は彼の食欲を止めるのに手綱を必死で操り手にマメができました笑　
ちなみに写真を撮る余裕は私には全くなく、唯一の心残りです。ツアー自体は景色は海も山も自然を大満喫できて素晴らしかったです。

その他
併設のカフェテリアで食べたクアロアバーガー（$15）は絶品でした。
送迎バスはかなりエアコンがきいてたので羽織ものを持っていけばよかったと後悔しました。
ロッカー（$5）は1日開閉自由なので便利だと思います。クレジットカード払い可。
お馬さんに付けるバッグにペットボトルやスマホを入れて持っていけるけれどゆっくり飲む時間はないです。写真も片手で撮れる方のみ。バランス必須。落とすの厳禁。
我が家は10時pickup、乗馬12時半予約、15時45分発バスで無駄がないスケジュールでしたが、歩いていけるところにビーチがあるので、今度行くときはもう少し時間に余裕を持たせてビーチまで足を伸ばしたいなと思いました。バギーも面白そうだったのでそちらもやってみたいです。バーガーは次回も欠かせません。

The food was delicious, and the show was amazing! I was satisfied to enjoy a welcome Mai Tai along with the meal. The show was full of excitement, and both parents and children could enjoy it together. I recommend taking a commemorative photo with the cast after the show as well.

料理も美味しかったし、ショーも最高でした！
料理と一緒にウェルカムマイタイも頂けて、満足です。
ショーは迫力満点で、親子で楽しめました。
ショーの後もキャストと記念撮影もできるのでおすすめです。

I saw manta rays swimming at the bottom about 3-4 times, but they didn't come as close as I had hoped. Since there was no shuttle service, I used Uber for the round trip, but I was worried if they would come to the dark port after the tour. The public restrooms are also unavailable at night, so I struggled to change. It's expected, but once the tour is over, the staff are indifferent. For those participating, make sure to prepare in advance!

底の方を泳ぐマンタを３－４回見ましたが、期待したほど近くには来ませんでした。送迎なしだったのでUberタクシーで往復しましたが、ツアー後の暗い港に来てもらえるか不安でした。公共トイレも夜は使えないので、着替えにも苦労しました。当たり前ですか、ツアー終わればスタッフは無関心。参加される方は事前準備を怠りなく！

If you're going to Hawaii, I want to meet sea turtles! After comparing various tours and reading many reviews, as well as checking the duration and costs, I found this one to be the best overall and made a reservation. (＊Since it's primarily in English, if you're worried about understanding, I think a tour with Japanese-speaking staff would be reassuring.)

As a result, I was able to see about 5-6 sea turtles, there were plenty of fish, and the staff were cheerful and fun, making me glad I chose this tour. I unfortunately got seasick on the way back and couldn't see, but it seemed there were dolphins and whales as well!

As others have mentioned, there were about 30-40 participants on the day, but we were the only Japanese. All the staff were locals, so you won't experience Japanese hospitality or explanations in Japanese, but you can enjoy the local atmosphere and a casual vibe, which I recommend.

On the day, I was lucky to have a local staff member who could speak a little Japanese. When I was scared to let go of the stairs while entering the water, they asked, "Are you scared?" and "Are you okay?" and checked if I wanted to return to the boat. I really wanted to see the sea turtles, so I said, "I'm scared, but I want to go into the water," and they held my hand and swam with me until I got used to it, lending me a float cushion. (At one point, an elderly person had to return to the boat due to fatigue, so I returned the cushion, but by then, I had gotten used to the water and was able to swim on my own!)

I tend to get seasick easily, and it was windy that day, so I took medication beforehand, but I ended up getting seasick on the way back and vomited a couple of times. There was a restroom, so I managed to be okay, but if you're prone to seasickness, be cautious depending on the weather that day. (By the way, the restroom was basic, and you couldn't flush paper; you had to pump it yourself to flush.)

It was my first snorkeling experience, and I was anxious since I can't swim well, but I was moved to see the sea turtles. I'm really glad I participated in this tour. I'm grateful to the wonderful staff.

ハワイに行くならウミガメに会いたい！といろんなツアーを比較し、口コミをたくさん読み比べ、所要時間や費用なども調べた結果、ここが総合的に1番良さそうで予約しました。(＊基本的には英語なので、英語の聞き取りが不安な方は、日本語スタッフのいるツアーが安心かなと思います)

結果、ウミガメ5-6匹ほどに会うこともでき、魚も沢山いて、スタッフの方々も陽気で楽しいたちで、このツアーにして良かったなと思いました。
わたしは帰りに船酔いして見れなかったですが、イルカやクジラもいたようでした！

他の方も書いている通り、当日は30-40名と参加者は多かったものの、日本人は自分たちだけでした。
スタッフは全員現地の方なので、日本的なホスピタリティや日本語説明は求められないですが、現地感を味わえ、カジュアルな雰囲気を楽しめるのでおすすめです。

当日は運良く日本語を少し話せる現地のスタッフがいました。海に入る時にこわくて階段から手を離せないでいると「こわい？」「大丈夫？」など声かけしてくれて、「船戻りたい？」など確認してくれました。私はどうしてもウミガメを見たかったので「こわいけど海には行きたい」と無茶を言ったところ、慣れるまで手をつないで一緒に泳いでくれて、浮きクッションを貸してくれました。(途中で高齢の方が体力的に厳しくなって船に戻るため、そのクッションはお返ししましたが、その頃には海にも慣れて1人で泳げるようになっていました！)

船酔いしやすい体質で、当日は風が強かったので、事前に薬を飲んでいましたが、帰りに船酔いを起こし2回ほど吐きました。トイレがあったのでなんとか大丈夫でしたが、船酔いする方は当日の天候次第では要注意です。(ちなみにトイレは簡易的なもので、紙は流せない&自分でポンプを上げ下げして流すトイレでした)

初シュノーケリングで、ほぼ泳げないので不安でしたが、ウミガメをみれて感動しました。ほんとにこのツアーに参加して良かったです。素敵なスタッフの方に感謝です。

All the staff were very warm and welcoming. The show had many highlights, and I felt it was a good decision to book the tour. The location was also easy to find, as it was inside the Royal Hawaiian Center, which was great in terms of accessibility.

スタッフの方々全員がとてもあたたかくもてなしてくれました。ショーも見所が多く、ツアーを申し込んで良かったと思いました。場所もロイヤルハワイアンセンターの中とわかり易かったので、立地面でも良かったです。

I don't want to waste time, so I always use Roberts for airport transfers. Unlike H○S, the waiting time at the airport is really short. This time, the shuttle departed just 15 minutes after I arrived at the pickup point. Sometimes it's a large bus, but this time it was a minivan. Regardless of the size of the vehicle, the number of passengers is usually around 10, which is relatively few. That might be why it's quicker. I will use it again when I'm traveling alone.

時間を無駄にしたくないので、
空港からの送迎はいつもロバーツを利用しています。
H○Sと違い空港での待ち時間が本当に少ないです。
今回もシャトル乗り場に着いてから15分後には発車していました。
大型バスの時もありますが今回はミニバンでした。
車体の大小に関わらず、乗車人数はいつも10名程度で少なめです。だから早いのかもしれません。
一人の時はまた利用します。

This is a must do excursion with family when visiting Oahu. A full day of cultural background, canoe rides to island, interactive activities for everyone. Friendly staff. It's not enough time for us to see all the areas, so definitely will come back again next time. Highly recommend!

I did get a bit seasick along the way, but I was able to see the seabed, and I was surprised to find fish in such deep waters. If I have the chance again, I would love to do it again.

途中船酔いもしましたが、海底を見ることができて
そんな深いところに魚もいるなんてビックリしました。また機会があったらよろしくお願いします

I ask others to go with me, and get...
'is it a big helicopter? must be stable'
'need a seat in the middle up front or I'll barf'
'doors off, are you nutz?'
Don't let them ruin it for you. Small copter with doors off is the full woohooo. The ride is smooth and stable enough. The view out the open door is wondrous. Accept nothing less. Watch a video in the comfort of your couch or get the whole experience.
