Since it was the rainy season in January, unfortunately, there was a bit of rain and strong winds on the day, and the waves affected the visibility while snorkeling. I was able to see some fish! It seems there was a sea turtle during snorkeling, but I was swimming ahead and by the time I turned back, it was gone, so I couldn't see it. It was just bad luck. I thought I could also do stand-up paddleboarding, but due to the strong winds, we couldn't do any activities other than snorkeling, and in the end, it turned into a cruise searching for sea turtles. The handmade spam onigiri was delicious! It was disappointing this time, but I would like to try again next time when it's not the rainy season. ☺︎

一月の雨季の参加だったのもあり、残念ながら当日雨が少しと風が強く、波もあってシュノーケルの時、海の透明度はあまりよくありませんでした。お魚は見る事が出来ました！ウミガメもシュノーケルの時いたみたいですが、私は前を泳いでいて戻っていくうちにいなくなってしまって見る事が出来ず。運ですが。supなどもできるかと思っていたのですが、風が強かったせいかシュノーケル以外のアクティビティは出来ず、最後はウミガメ探しのクルーズになりました。ます！手作りのスパムおにぎりは美味しかったです！今回は残念でしたが、次回は雨季じゃない時にまたトライしたいと思います☺︎

Aloha!
There is nothing left to say other than the Chief and his team made the luau experience magical on the date of my wife’s 50th birthday. We were right up front and the entertainment from park entrance to finale did not disappoint. Well organized and timed to an almost military precision the multiple events were educational, mystifying and steeped in traditions that we were taught throughout the performance through music dance and some well timed humour. Food was amazing.
This is 5/5 and a MUST DO on a visit to Oahu.
Thanks again

Twenty years ago, when I boarded, it was cramped and fully booked... The windows were small and hard to see out of, but this time I read in the reviews that the sea is clearer in the morning, so I made a reservation for the early morning. There happened to be only six of us on board... It felt like we had the place to ourselves, and my family was happy.

20年前に乗船した時は狭いし、満席で…
窓も小さくて見難かったけれど、今回は口コミを読んで朝の方が海が濁っていないとしり、朝イチで予約。
乗船したのが、たまたま6人だけで…ゆったり貸切気分で過ごせました。家族も喜んでいました。

It wasn't summer, so it was cold, but I had a valuable experience seeing many turtles while snorkeling.

Unfortunately, the sandbar wasn't exposed because the tide hadn't gone out, and the water was up to my waist.

The crew members were very friendly, and it was great that they provided both warm and cold snacks, Spam, apples, and drinks.

時期が夏ではないので寒かったですが、シュノーケリングで亀がたくさん見えて貴重な体験ができました。

サンドバーば残念ながら潮が引いてなく、腰あたりまで水がありました。

クルーの方々はとても感じが良く、スナック菓子、スパム、りんご、飲み物も暖かい、冷たいどちらもあり良かったです。

This was a fantastic tour. We have done several tours at the Kualoa Ranch and have enjoyed them all. Our guide was great and informative. It was obvious she really enjoyed her job. Would definitely recommend this tour and all the other tours at the Kualoa Ranch.

The guides for this tour are all American, so if you don't understand English, you won't be able to enjoy it 100%. There is a Japanese audio guide available, but the guides tell a lot of jokes, so understanding them will enhance your experience.
The submarine is anchored offshore, and you will take a shuttle boat to get there. There are restrooms on the shuttle boat, so please take care of that before boarding.
At a depth of 30 meters, you can see the wreckage of fighter planes and sunken ships. Fortunately, we were lucky enough to see a sea turtle swimming above the sunken ship. The course lasts 40 minutes, but it goes by in no time. It seems that the sea is less murky in the morning.

このツアーのガイドはすべてアメリカ人なので、英語がわからないと100%は楽しめません。日本語オーディオガイドがありますが、ガイドの話はジョークが多いので、それがわかるともっと楽しめます。
潜水艦は沖に停泊しており、そこまでシャトルボートで向かいます。トイレはシャトルボートにあるので、乗り込む前に済ませておいてください。
水深30mmで潜ると、戦闘機の残骸や沈没船が見れます。今回ラッキーなことにウミガメが沈没船の上を泳いでいました。40分のコースですが、あっという間に終了します。午前中の方が海は濁ってないみたいです。

It was an incredibly kind and attentive service, and I had a very enjoyable buggy experience. The elevation changes were intense, and the ride was thrilling. It was an experience I definitely want to do again next time. The staff who assisted us were absolutely wonderful. Thank you very much.

最高に優しく丁寧に教えていただきサービス旺盛でとても楽しいバギー体験でした。高低差が激しく揺れが半端なく楽しめました。次回もまた絶対にやりたい体験でした。とにかく対応してくれたスタッフは最高の方でした。ありがとうございました。

The plan included a visit to the Dole Plantation, horseback riding, and sightseeing in Haleiwa. I thought the guide would just pick us up right near our hotel and take us by car, but instead, they shared a lot of history and local stories about Hawaii that we wouldn't have known otherwise. Honestly, it was worth the participation fee just for that.

At Dole, we had a short 30-minute visit, but I was able to shop and found unique items that aren't sold in Japan, which really excited me. The main horse experience was truly amazing. The waves at the North Shore looked like a painting. I was moved to think that such a beautiful place exists in this world.

Unfortunately, the horseback riding experience ran over time, so our sightseeing in Haleiwa was quite short, which was disappointing. However, I was able to enjoy delicious gelato and leisurely explore some cute shops, which was nice. I would love to take my time to explore more next time.

I had assumed that garlic shrimp was included in the course, so I was a bit disappointed to find out it was a separate course, but it was still so much fun that I would definitely do it again.

It was a day filled with awe in a world where there is still so much I don't know. Thank you, guide!

Doleプランテーション、乗馬、ハレイワ観光のプランでした。
泊まってるホテルのすぐ近くまでガイドさんが迎えに来てくれてそのまま車で送迎するのだけかと思いきや、この車に乗らないと知り得ることのできないハワイの歴史や現地の話をたくさん聞かせてくれました。もぉ、ここまでで参加費の価値あり。
Doleでは30分と言う短い時間でしたが買い物もでき、日本では売ってない雑貨と出会いテンション上がりました。
メインのお馬さんは本当に最高でした。
ノースショアの波は絵に描いたよう。この世にこんな美しい場所があるなんて…と感動でした。
乗馬体験がおしてしまったのもあったのでハレイワ観光の時間がとても短く残念でしたが、美味しいジェラート頂きながらゆっくり出来たし、かわいい雑貨店巡りもできてよかった。
次はゆっくり見てみたい。

ガーリックシュリンプがコースの中に含まれていると思い込んでいたので別コースだと知ってちょっとがっかりだだたけど、全然！！！それ以上に楽しかったからまたの機会に。


まだまだ自分の知らないことがたくさんある世界にただただ感動の1日でした。
ガイドさんありがとう

A great day to kayak, just the right amount of clouds and right amount of wind. Going try again, went to the one of the small islands, want to check out the sand bar next time.

Had an idea, but kept expecations low. It was an unique experience in doing some agriculture work on hawaii land. Something i truly never can replicate from where i am from. Great time as a date.

I did the secret island back in 2015, and it truly felt like a secret island. The amount of people that were there at that time were the same amount of people on the boat. Now it is overhwelmed 10 fold of people. From the previous time going and present activities to do, they added a couple more presently. One of which checking out the turtles.
Anyways its still fun, especially with someone else.

It was interesting to say, enjoyed the environment and the food. Was with my girlfriend and she loved it. Was at a table on the edge to the starboard side. What topped it all was doing it on the night of the fireworks! Would do again.

The ship was large, so it was stable. However, it does sway a bit during movement. I took motion sickness medication in advance.
I was able to see a mother and baby whale. I could observe the spouting, back, and tail relatively close up. Since they are wild animals, I didn't expect any flashy behavior, so it met my expectations. The naturalist provided various explanations. Even those who don't understand English can enjoy it, and the staff are friendly.

大きな船なので、安定していました。ただし、移動の際はそれなりに揺れます。酔い止めをあらかじめ飲んでおきました。
クジラは親子をみることができました。潮吹きの様子や、背中、しっぽを、比較的近くで見られました。野生の生き物なので派手な行動はそもそもそんなには期待していなかったので、期待通りでした。ナチュラリストの方が色々解説してくれます。(英語)英語が分からない人でもたのしめますし、スタッフの方は感じがいいです。

The captain and his helper were very kind and welcoming.
They could have explained the sitting stance 2 x to make sure the kids understood but besides that We all had an amazing time and we will definitely come back to you guys on our next trip out.

I was a bit disappointed that I couldn't see any whales, but I was happy to spend a relaxing time on the boat, feeling the sea breeze. The blue ocean and sky with white clouds were truly refreshing. I thought the view of Diamond Head and Waikiki from the sea was quite nice as well. Even if you can't see whales, you can receive a ticket for another trip later. If you tell the staff with the board your name, you'll get the ticket. If I had a few more days, I definitely would have liked to go again.

クジラを観ることが出来なかった為、少しガッカリしましたが、潮風に吹かれてのんびりと船で過ごせて嬉しかったです。
青い海と青い空に白い雲、本当に気持ち良かったです。
海から見るダイアモンドヘッドやワイキキもなかなか良いと思いました。
クジラを観ることが出来なくても、後日乗れる乗船券をもらうことが出来ます。
ボードを持ったスタッフに名前を伝えるとチケットをもらえます。
もう少し日にちがあったら、是非また乗りたかったです。

It was a comfortable catamaran boat. It was a bit small, but we were able to see several whales swimming perfectly. Thanks to our cheerful guide, we really enjoyed the cruise.

快適なカタマランボートでした。やや小ぶりでしたが、何頭かの鯨が泳ぐ姿もバッチリ。陽気なガイドさんのおかげでクルーズもenjoy出来ました。

We participated as a family of five with children aged 6 and 7!
As we moved by boat, the color of the sea clearly changed, and the emerald green water was so beautiful that it left us in awe.
This time, the water depth was up to the adults' waists, which made it a perfect opportunity for our first challenges with snorkeling, stand-up paddleboarding, and canoeing! The kids were able to touch the bottom, so we could enjoy ourselves safely until the end!
However, it was a bit cold, and my 6-year-old son, who couldn't touch the bottom, got scared and cried, retreating to the boat right away. I was a bit disappointed because I wanted him to play a little longer...
Next time in the summer, I strongly hope to join when we can see the sandbar in its true form!!
This time, the kids wanted to ride the banana boat and the tube, so we all participated, and they all said it was the best!!
Thank you for ensuring a safe environment with proper supervision!
I'm really glad we participated!

6.7.9歳の子連れ家族5人で参加しました！
船で移動すると明らかに海の色が変わり、エメラルドグリーンの海がとてもキレイで感動しました。
今回は大人の腰上辺りまでの水深だったため、シュノーケリング、サップ、カヌーは初めてのチャレンジするのにちょうど良かったです！子どもたちも足がついたので、安心して最後まで楽しむことができました！
ただ少し寒かったので、6歳の息子は脚もつかないため怖かったのか号泣してすぐ船に撤退してしまいました笑 もう少し遊んで欲しかったので残念、、、
次は夏、是非サンドバーの本来の姿か見れるタイミングで参加したいと強く思いました!!
今回は子どもたちがバナナボートとチューブをしたいと言ったので、そちらもみんなで参加して子どもたちは最高だった！！と口を揃えて話しています。
安全に過ごせるよう監視体制もしっかりして下さり、ありがとうございました！
参加して本当に良かったです！

When we were planning our honeymoon trip to Oahu, my parents discouraged us from using a rental car, and I felt a bit sad thinking, "Oh, we can only sightsee around Waikiki..." While trying to find a way to enjoy areas outside of Waikiki on our own, I came across this tour!!

Since I can't speak any English and couldn't use a rental car, having a shuttle service with Japanese-speaking staff was truly reassuring ( ; ; ) Ai and Natsue kindly guided us to local recommended spots like snorkeling points and shopping areas, and Tomo, who provided the shuttle service, was very friendly. His speaking to us in Japanese made us feel at ease right from the moment he picked us up (＞＜).

We were blessed with great weather, and both Kailua and Lanikai had stunning views, making for an exciting snorkeling experience with my husband!! I highly recommend this tour to everyone ⭐︎ Thank you so much!!!

新婚旅行でオアフ島に行く計画をしていたとき、レンタカーでの行動を両親に止められてしまい「あ〜、ワイキキ周辺しか観光できないのか...」と寂しい気持ちになっていました。
どうにか自分たちの足でワイキキ以外の地域も堪能できないかと調べていた時に、このツアーを見つけました！！
英語が全く話せず、レンタカーも使えないため、送迎付きで日本語スタッフの方に対応いただけたのは、本当に心強くて安心でした（ ; ; ）
あいさん、なつえさんがシュノーケルポイントやショッピングできる場所など現地のおすすめスポットをとても丁寧に案内してくださり、送迎してくださったトモさんも気さくで、日本語で声をかけてくださったおかげでお迎えの時点からとても安心感がありました(＞＜)
天気にも恵まれて、カイルアもラニカイも景色がとても綺麗で夫と興奮しながらシュノーケリングしました！！このツアーはみなさんにおすすめしたいです⭐︎
本当にありがとうございました！！！

We had a great time on our helicopter tour! Our pilot was great. The scenery was beautiful! I had never been on a helicopter before and worried a bit about motion sickness, which I have an issue with sometimes. This was an extremely stable feeling ride! And our flight was a doors off flight. Zero problems with motion sickness here! The staff was pleasant and helpful. The pilot was capable and fun! Thanks for a great trip! I would highly recommend.
P.S. The instructions ahead of time say to bring a lanyard for your phone and your glasses, so I ordered both off of amazon. When you arrive, the staff had phone lanyards available and said that the headphones that you wear will hold your glasses/sunglasses on.

I found the catamaran and understood the meeting point, but the reception was not open at the meeting time, so there was a bit of a wait. After the reception ended, there was more waiting, but when the catamaran that had been docked suddenly started moving out to sea, I felt a bit anxious. Since no passengers were on board, I thought it would be fine. We moved to the boarding area and boarded again. As mentioned in other people's experiences, there were hardly any Japanese people, just our family. Communication with the staff was not established, but it wasn't a problem. They asked if we wanted drinks, and we could respond in simple English. We encountered whales while sailing. It was a windy day, but it wasn't too bumpy, which was reassuring. I was wondering whether to prepare motion sickness medication, but this time I was fine. Occasionally, we got splashed with water, but I enjoyed that too. We could also see the other side of Diamond Head. There were various sailing options, and I was unsure which one to choose, but if you just want to enjoy sailing, I think this one is affordable and recommended. I sat under the sail, which provided shade and was a nice spot. Thank you very much.

カタマランを見つけて集合場所を理解でしましたが受付は集合時間にはオープンしておらず少し待ち時間があります
受付が終了してそこからまた待ち時間がありますが、停泊していたカタマランが突然動き始め海へ出た時は少し焦りました
誰も客が乗車していなかったので問題ないだろうとは思いましたが
乗船場所まで移動して改めて乗船しました
他の方の体験談にもありましたが日本人はほとんどおらず私たち家族だけです
スタッフとの会話も成立しませんが特に問題ありません
ドリンクはいりませんか、と確認してくれますが簡単な英語で返答可能です
セーリング中にクジラにも遭遇しました
風の強い日でしたが、それほど揺れなくて安心
酔い止めを用意しようか迷っていましたが今回はなんともありませんでした
時折水しぶきがかかりますがそれも楽しめました
タイヤモンドヘッドの反対側も見ることができます
さまざまなセーリングの選択肢がありどれにしようか迷いましたが
セーリング自体を楽しみたいだけであればお安くておすすめだと思います
帆の下に座りましたが、ちょうど帆の影になって日陰でよい場所でした
ありがとうございました

We had a great time. Picked us up in Waikiki, got on cat for 15 min and had a light lunch and swam and snorkeled. Everyone was fantastic. The two men playing music was a treat. Great time on a full boat!

Good that we can see the whale. The check in is smooth and the staff is friendly. Highly recommend. The presail information is important so that we know what we should look for. Captain Mike is awesome and friendly. Sarah is kind and good.

A great way to experience surfing! Perfect for 2-3 people. Paddle captain was very friendly, helpful, and able to share lots of information. As with any outdoor activity, it is dependent on weather and conditions. Unfortunately, our morning had very calm seas. We were able to catch a few good waves, so not a complete bust!

When I think of a Luau, I think of the movie with Adam Sandlin, Jennifer Aniston, and Nicole Kidman in Just Go With It - in Maui.

The Luau we attended here was different than my expectations. The arboretum on the property was beautiful and full of a variety of plants, trees, animals, and some sea life.

The buffet style food approach was ok, but nothing exceptional unfortunately.

After dinner, there was a show to reflect the Hawaiian history and culture through dance, which culminated in a one-man fire stick show.

Again, all okay. Probably the coolest thing to me was the fact that it's a family business of more than 5 generations. Hats off to them!

As a whole, the experience to see and learn more about the terrible happenings on December 7, 1941 was an outstanding opportunity and well orchestrated.

The Arizona memorial was incredibly humbling. I never knew there are more than 900 souls still at rest below the memorial. Also, the endless oil leak from the ship was quite a surprise.

Now, to be honest, I thought we'd be walking on a glass bottom floor so one could see more of the ruins. But, as it was, with the displays available, the wall of names, etc., it was quite effective.

May God continue to bless all the lost souls, injured warriors, and their families.

Next, we toured the USS Missouri. What an amazing ship with displays to explain personnel jobs, their quarters, and all the cogs of the wheel it takes to operate and maintain such massive equipment. God bless our service men and women.

Finally, we walked through the air museum. It was very cool to see all of the various aircraft on display, with some still flying today! Sweet!

Lastly, the bus driver that picked us up from our hotel was quite entertaining and full of good information. He kept us informed and laughing as we drove through Honolulu and a fallen soldier cemetery on the way to Pearl Harbor. We learned about how the reservations work, native Hawaiian life and culture, and the MANY, MANY types of Spam there are in Hawaii! Woohoo... gotta love Spam :-)

Thanks you so much for this opportunity. Obvious, you are highly recommended!!!

I booked this tour for my first time in Hawaii. On the bus heading there, there were many Japanese people! After arriving, there is an explanation for each tour, and it seemed like most people had signed up for the buggy tour.
During the horseback riding experience, two English-speaking staff members accompany you. While English is the main language, when the horse lags behind, they say, "Kick it! Thank you! Good!" so even if you're not good at English, you can understand the basics and have fun.
They will tell you the names of the horses if you ask, so I think you'll enjoy horseback riding even more if you engage with them.
The staff were kind, and the horses were very cute and well-behaved!

初めてのHawaiiでこちらのツアーを申し込みしました。ホテルから向かう際のバスでは、日本人も多くいました！到着してからツアーごとに説明があるのですが、ほとんどの方がバギーツアーに申し込みしているようでした。
乗馬体験では2名の英語スタッフが一緒についてきてくれます。英語がメインになりますが、馬が遅れをとると「蹴って蹴って！ありがとう！グッド！」と言ってくれるので、英語が苦手でも最低限のことは分かりましたので楽しかったです。
馬の名前を聞くと教えてくれるので、ぜひ声掛けながら乗馬をするとより楽しめると思います。
スタッフも優しく、馬もとってもキュートでお利口さんでした!!

This was my third and final visit to the PCC over a period of thirty years . Unfortunately I was not feeling well on the day with a head cold . But I did manage to do all I wanted to.The film was great as also was the evening show
I will continue to have happy memories of my visits .You continue to provide the best

I initially signed up for a turtle snorkeling tour, but it turned out to be so much more than that. It transformed into the most unforgettable whale watching adventure of our lives! We were fortunate enough to witness over 20 humpback whales just off the coast of Waikiki. It was truly a breathtaking sight.

I wanted to express my sincere appreciation for the flexibility in the itinerary. The fact that we were given the opportunity to dedicate some time to whale watching before snorkeling made the experience even more remarkable.

I wholeheartedly recommend the private Catamaran experience to anyone passing through Honolulu. The combination of the stunning natural beauty and the outstanding service provided by your team made it an unforgettable journey.

Thank you once again for creating such a memorable experience. I look forward to sharing this recommendation with friends, family, and fellow travelers.

What an amazing time! We got picked up a minute away from our hotel and the bus driver even shared some Oahu history during the ride! We opted for the five star dinner and it was incredible. We felt like VIPs! Incredible food, the BEST steak I have ever had and delicious champagne. Live Jazz music on our deck and stunning views. Definitely going to do it again next time we visit! I recommend bringing a jacket as it can get pretty windy on the outside deck and indoors is air-conditioned.

Wonderful experience of Haleakala mountain expedition includes watching beautiful sunset from a secret location away from the crowd followed by sky full of stars, using 2 different telescopes to see different constellations, stars, Jupiter and its moons, andromeda and our moon from close and in HD, as well taking variety of pictures using our phone.

The tour guide Yoshi is a passionate stargazing enthusiast and also a great photographer. He guided us through the crater for various photo locations and spots, and will took us to the secret spot away from the crowd to watch beautiful sunset and he also became our photographer and clicked perfect pictures on each spot, so we didn’t need to worry about taking selfies. He also showed us some tricks for clicking beautiful pictures of stars in the dark.

I highly recommend this Haleakala sunset and stargazing tour with Yoshi to everyone that loves stargazing and also interested in watching sunset from the top of Haleakala mountain above clouds at 10k+ elevation from sea level.

Yoshi picked us up from our hotel in West Maui in the afternoon and another couple who was visiting from Japan from their hotel, then we all picked some dinner from a nearby marketplace and started with our journey to Haleakala mountain top. Yoshi had also bought us donuts from Crispy Creme and also provided us with winter coats, blankets and hot tea to prevent from cold winds atop the mountain. Thanks Yoshi for this wonderful experience. Arigato and Mahalo!
