Hawaii
This day trip to Lanai’i was an experience my wife and I will never forget! Captain Joe and his crew are knowledgeable, enthusiastic and attentive! On the way we were able to spot a manta ray just as we left the dock and several whales on the way to Lanai’i where we got off the boat and snorkeled. We were also served a delicious lunch! Check out the photos the photographer takes too. She is awesome!
We’d like to send a special shout-out to Coby aka “Utah” who wins the Kindest Crew-member award for ensuring I was safe and still able to participate so my wife could fully enjoy snorkeling! We can’t tell you how much that meant to us, thanks again!
This time, the scheduled date and time were canceled due to bad weather, so we quickly changed it to the next morning. I had originally booked for lunchtime, hoping to see the beautiful ocean, but in the morning, the sun hadn't come out yet, and the sea looked a grayish blue. When I looked straight down, it was incredibly high and really scary! (150m)
I tackled it with my 5-year-old and my 6th grader in between us, and it seemed the kids had fun and wanted to do it again. Later, my parents, who are over 70, also tried it, and they said it wasn't as scary as I made it out to be. I'm sure it would be enjoyable if you don't look straight down.
Considering the price, the duration was long, and I thought it was very cost-effective.
今回、予定していた日時が天候不良で中止になり、急遽、翌日の朝イチに変更しました。もともとお昼の時間帯を予約していたので、海のキレイさが見られることを期待していましたが、朝イチはまだ日も射しておらず、海がグレーのようなブルーでした。なので、真下を見てみると、すっごく高くてめちゃくちゃ怖かったです!(150m)
5歳の子どもと小6の子どもに挟まれて、3人で挑みましたが、子どもたちは楽しかったようで、またしたいと言っていました。
その後、70を超えた両親も挑みましたが、私が騒ぐほど怖くなかったと言っていました。真下を見なければ、きっと楽しいと思います。
値段の割に時間も長く、とてもコスパは良いと思いました。
I arrived earlier than my reserved time, but after checking in, I went straight into preparation, and before I knew it, the activity had started. The explanation was only in English, so if you don't understand English, you need to speak up; otherwise, it seemed like they would just leave without you. I was worried it might be dangerous, so I didn't let my child have a phone, but it seemed they had set aside time for photos in beautiful scenery at various points, so it would have been better to let them have it. There was an area where you could drive freely, and it seemed both adults and children (6th graders) found it fun, even though kids might fall over. While we were waiting, they also gave us juice and Honolulu cookies. It was a really scenic spot, and even while waiting, I was wandering around taking photos. It lasted about an hour, and I think it was very cost-effective. The staff were also very kind, and I was extremely satisfied.
予約時間より早く着きましたが、受付をすませたらそのまま準備に入り、気づいたらアクティビティが開始しました。
説明は英語のみなので、英語がわからなかったらアピールしないと、そのまま出発しそうな勢いでした。
危ないかな?と携帯を持たせなかったのですが、要所要所に素敵な風景の中、撮影時間をもうけていたようで、持たせた方がよかったです。
途中、自由に運転していいエリアがあり、子どもだと転んだりするので、そこが大人も子ども(小6)も面白かったようです。
待っているこちらにも、ジュースやホノルルクッキーをくれました。
すごく景色のよいところで、待っている間も、うろうろして撮影していました。だいたい1時間くらいあり、非常にコスパもよいと思います。
スタッフの方も非常に優しくて大満足でした。
Our guide had a lot of interesting information about the film industry of Hawaii, not only about Hawai-5-O. We could go into Mc Garrets house and meet and talk to the character Flippa. The Lunch was only a sandwich and some chips and a soft drink. But it was good. We spent plenty of time in the garden of that house. The other places could not to be visited. We had only 2 more foto stops: one at Danu‘s thinking point and one at the headquarter. But it was ok for us.
If the price was it worth? Not sure, but we had a good time.
We participated as a family of five. Our 8-year-old initially struggled as the horse was eating grass and not listening, but with the help of the guide, they quickly got used to it. It was a lot of fun and became the best memory of our trip to Hawaii.
家族5人で参加しました。
8歳の子は、最初は馬が草を食べたりして言うことを聞かず苦労していましたが、ガイドの方に手伝って頂き、すぐ慣れました。
とても楽しく、ハワイ旅行で一番の思い出になりました。
I participated in parasailing for the first time. The operation was handled by two English-speaking guys. Both of them were in a great mood, which really lifted my spirits. The parasailing was very stable in the air, and I was able to relax. I didn't get too wet during the landing, which was nice. The photo shoot cost $40, and I paid for it on-site.
はじめてパラセイリングに参加しました。
オペレーションされるのは英語話者のお兄さん二人でした。お二人ともご機嫌でこちらまでテンションが上がりました。
パラセイリングは上空ではとても安定しており、のんびりすることができました。着水時もあんまりぬれず、よかったです。
写真撮影は$40でした。現地にて支払いました。
My family and I had a great time using this package tour to Kualoa Ranch. The instructions were clear and the transportation vehicles were timely and clean. The ranch itself is beautiful with the ATV tour thoroughly going to different parts of the ranch. The tour guides were informative, funny and definitely wanted the guests to have a great time. I recommend you wear clothes that you don't mind getting dusty as the dust kicks up a lot as you're driving. They provide helmets, bandanas and googles to help cover up. The views were beautiful and they give you plenty of time to take photos and soak in the atmosphere. Overall, highly recommend this tour.
Unfortunately, it rained on the day of our visit, but we still had a great time despite getting soaked! For a full two hours, we were able to stop several times to listen to the guide's explanations and take photos. The second half of the course had more ups and downs, making the driving even more enjoyable. The facilities were clean, and it was reassuring to have a Japanese staff member, Sanae, there. However, I felt that waiting about three hours for the return bus after the activity was too long.
当日は残念ながら雨でしたが、びしょ濡れになりながら楽しめました!丸2時間、途中で何度か止まってガイドさんの説明を聞いたり、写真を撮ったりもできます。コースは後半の方がアップダウンがあり、より運転が楽しめます。
施設はトイレも綺麗で、日本人スタッフのさなえさんがいて安心でしたが、アクティビティ終了後、帰りのバスの出発まで約3時間待つのたけは長すぎると感じました。
Long pants are required, and I went in long pants, but there were people riding in shorts. I think long pants are better since you have to straddle the horse. If it rains, you can borrow a yellow raincoat for riding, but you can't take it off halfway. We were glad to borrow it since it rained heavily the whole time.
Since it might rain, it's better to bring a change of clothes. Even if it doesn't rain, you'll get dirty anyway. You can change in the restroom. The bus ride to and from the location has strong air conditioning, so it's cold.
There was also a kind Japanese person at the reception, which was reassuring. Overall, it was a lot of fun, and I definitely recommend it!
長ズボン必須とあり長ズボンで行ったが半ズボンで乗れてる人もいた。馬に跨るので長ズボンの方がいいと思う。雨の場合乗馬は黄色いレインコートを貸してもらえるが途中で脱ぐことはできない。自分たちはずっと雨が強かったので借りて良かった。
雨が降るので着替えを持って行った方がよい。雨は降らなくてもどっちみち汚れるので。お手洗いで着替えられる。行き帰りのバスは冷房きいてて寒い。
受付にも親切な日本人の方がいて安心。
総じてとても楽しかったです、ぜひおすすめ!
I had done zip-lining in Japan before, but this one was by far the longest and the best experience I've ever had. The shuttle bus felt like an attraction from Jurassic Park, which was fun. The instructors were friendly and kind, and they even spoke to us in Japanese.
The weather changed frequently, with rain and sunshine throughout the day. At one point, it started pouring down heavily, and I thought I might catch a cold because my clothes got soaked. So, I recommend purchasing a poncho sold on-site or wearing a raincoat if there's any chance of rain or if the weather looks suspicious on the day of your participation.
日本でもジップラインはやったことがありましたが今回のが今まで経験した中でダントツで長くて最高でした。
送迎の車もジュラシックパークのアトラクションみたいで楽しかったです。
インストラクターの方も日本語で話しかけてくれたり、気さくで優しくてとてもいい方達でした。
雨が降ったり晴れたりコロコロ天気が変わる日だったのですが、途中から凄い勢いで降ってきて服がびしょ濡れになり風邪を引くかと思ったので、参加当日少しでも雨が降ってたり空模様が怪しかったりする時は現地で売ってるポンチョ購入するかレインコート着たほうがいいと思います。
My hubby and I wanted a more intimate luau experience…something more like a real family luau! We found it! Although there was no emu ceremony, we were immediately seated and our drink orders taken. Then we were invited to a lovely buffet without having to wait…delicious mahi, chicken and the most delicious pork I have ever had at ANY luau! Decadent desserts too - yum! After dinner, we experienced a one hour Hawaiian luau show. The dancers were extremely skilled and their performances very entertaining. The fire knife dancer was excellent and never dropped a fire stick. Music, songs, dancing and continued drink service during a lovely sunset and a twinkle-lit venue.
We loved the experience and enjoyed it immensely….fabulous food, positive personalities, delightful dancers, melodious music - the perfect evening at a more affordable price! We’ll be back with more family!
Excellent!! We like it so much. Only the drink that you gave is not good. But all was amazing.
At first, I saw a small whale, about 5 meters long, showing its dorsal fin and tail fin about three times. After that, I spotted a mother whale, which seemed to be just under 10 meters long, showing its dorsal fin and spouting water about three times. The waves were about 3 meters high, and the boat rocked a bit, but it was very enjoyable.
初め、子クジラとみられる5mくらいのが背びれ、尾びれが3回くらい見れた。
そのあと、母クジラとみられる10m弱のが、背びれと潮吹きが3回くらい見られた。波は3mくらいあり、船は多少揺れたが、とても楽しかった。
Thank you very much for joining our cruise. We are very pleased to hear that you were able to observe the whales spouting. We hope to see you again soon. All of our staff are looking forward to your 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。
クジラの潮吹きなどをご観測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。
Fun interesting tour. Very beautiful river. The chicken were funny.
This was my second time parasailing in Hawaii. This time, I traveled with my elderly mother, and since we were in Hawaii, I wanted to include some ocean activities for her as well. The boat does sway during the ride, so I think anyone who can brace themselves and maintain a seated position (as you take off from that position) can participate, even if they're older.
In the end, my mother was very satisfied, and it seems this became her favorite memory from the trip. For those who want photos, they take about 150 pictures of you in the air and the scenery from the boat, and after disembarking, they transfer the data to your phone right there. It comes with a memory card for $50. I usually don't buy many photos from tourist spots, but these turned out really well, and I'm happy with them.
ハワイでのパラセーリング2回目です。
今回は高齢の母と2人旅、せっかくのハワイなので母にも海のアクティビティを取り入れたくて参加しました。
ボートで移動時に揺れますので、その揺れを踏ん張れる方、長座の姿勢がとれる方(その体制から飛ぶので)であれば高齢でも参加できるかと思います。
結果、母大満足、今回の旅で1番の思い出になった様です。
写真が欲しい人は上空での様子やボートからの景色を150枚ほど撮ってくれて下船後にその場でデータを携帯に移行してくれます。メモリーカードも付いて50ドル。観光地の写真はあまり買わないのですが、よく撮れてて気に入ってます。
Unfortunately, I was disappointed that I couldn't see the whales. I thought they would give us tickets for the following day if we couldn't see them, but I didn't receive any explanation or tickets.
あいにくクジラは見れなくて残念でした。
見れなかったら翌日以降のチケットをくれると思っていたが、何も説明もなく貰えなかった。
Thank you very much for joining our cruise. It's unfortunate that you didn't see any whales, but we hope you enjoyed the morning cruise. Please come again. All of our staff are looking forward to welcoming you back.
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。
鯨が見えなかったのは残念ですが、朝のクルーズはお楽しみいただけましたでしょうか。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。
Although the day was grey and windy....the day at sea was excellent. Whales were not seen, but everything from the crew and staff members were excellent. The naturalist on board was so informative and wandered the ship answering all our questions. she was so easy to talk to and answered all our questions even the silly ones. Since we did and early morning cruise. we had coffees and snacks...dont forget to get the Mac nut cookies.....they are the best! We will do it again and hopefully have better luck in viewing....
We were able to enjoy snorkeling, kayaking, stand-up paddleboarding, and volleyball for two and a half hours for free. I think it's a great deal since it includes these activities and allows you to experience the precious scenery of the sandbar. I recommend it for groups who love activities or siblings. Even grandparents who didn't go into the water enjoyed the scenery and live music. The water depth is about chest to waist high. They mentioned that it's usually like this. It's a good depth for activities, but if you're expecting a sandy beach at the sandbar, you might want to consider other tours. Also, there are no showers. If that's a concern, it might be good to bring some water to rinse off a bit after changing.
シュノーケリング、カヤック、サップ、バレーボールが2時間半、無料で出来ました。
これらの費用込み、サンドバーという貴重な景色も味わえるので、お得だと思います。
アクテビティ好きのグループや兄弟などにお勧め。
海に入らない、祖父母さんなんかも、景色と生演奏で、楽んでおられました。
水深は胸から腰ぐらいの深さ。だいたいいつもこんな感じだと言っておられました。アクテビティにはちょうど良い深さですが、砂浜のサンドバーを期待するなら、他のツアーなのかなぁと思います。
あと、シャワーはありません。気になる方は、着替え後に、ちょっと洗う、水を持って行くと良いかも。
Thank you very much for participating in the tour. We also appreciate you sharing your photos. From all of us at KBOS.
この度はツアーにご参加いただき誠にありがとうございました。お写真も共有いただきありがとうございます。KBOS スタッフ一同
I thought it might be a bit lacking, as it seemed like just running in a line while watching videos, but in the second half, there were many moments splashing water in the stream, making it a very enjoyable experience. I would love to do it again if I have the chance.
ビデオ等を見ていると列に繋がって走る感じでイマイチかな?と思っていましたが後半に小川で水飛沫を上げるところが多く、大変楽しい体験でした。機会があれば又なりたいです。
Food was better than expected, and the plantation grounds are breathtaking beauty.
Kauai is the garden island for a reason. Seeing it all from above was unreal!
So Much Fun!!! Upspeed Lazy River with Adrenaline rushes!!
Really phenomenal day, the falls were like no other, how I wish to be back in Kauai!
Aloha Kara,
Phenomenal is good enough for us all at Kayak Kaua’i.
We truly try to help folks have a safe and memorable time.
We are getting a kayak ready for your return.
Thanks for caring to share.
Stay well and active.
A hui hou,
Micco/Head Guide
Great way to pre-order and have passport ready to avoid the day of lines!
Really well maintained trail, gorgeous grounds and fun as they are single ATVS!!
Right on HHV grounds, easy to get too, a wonderful night!
Solemn day in history, but happy that while on island we got to see the spot where all took place.
I felt like I got to see all the best spots of Big Island on this 1 day tour!
Fabulous day, getting to get into the sea caves was the best!
Delish food, fun times and gorgeous views! Worth it!
