The people were fantastic and the fishing was great! My son (10) and I had a blast! My son also really enjoyed seeing whales and sea turtles on our trip. We highly recommend this excursion for anyone!

This was one the best experiences ever! The guide was fantastic! (Gauge/Gage? My apologies if misspelling your name - he was super knowledgeable about the island and easy to talk to, he was also well organized and thought of everything. The entire journey was super easy to follow and we all got to see some amazing things. Hot chocolate and biscotti? Snow? Wild turkeys and sheep? Binary star system anyone? Gage will make it happen. We also had a great GREAT experience just chatting with you about the Big Island. Thank you Thank you!

Great staff, explained everything properly, I’ve been here before and came back with family, because I had great memories from being here before - best kayak rental place on Oahu in my opinion. We did not take any pictures because we wanted to keep our phones safe but you get to see a lot of awesome wildlife! Thank you so much for awesome memories!

This was a great alternative to actual snorkeling. The divers and staff were very informative and very friendly. They made sure everyone was happy and getting the most out of the adventure. However the water was murky and not a lot of ocean creatures. But you see what’s there at that time. Would do again. Certainly an experience we will remember.

It was very meaningful. Since it was my first time in Hawaii in a while and my stay was short, I wanted to make the most of my time. Choosing a tour with transportation instead of a rental car was the right decision. It included lunch, which was a great deal, and it satisfied my desire to go snorkeling and explore the city. The Japanese staff, Natsue and Emi, were very attentive to what the participants wanted, and I had a very pleasant experience. Thank you very much.

大変有意義でした。
久々のハワイだった事と、短い滞在だったので、時間を有効に使いたいと思い
レンタカーではなく、送迎付きのツアーにして正解でした。ランチも付いていてお得だし、シュノーケルも街歩きもしたいという欲張りな要求が満たせました。日本人スタッフのナツエさんとエミさんは参加者がどうしたいかをきめ細やかに察知してくださり、とても心地よく過ごせました。ありがとうございました。

I enjoyed the scenery that can only be seen while riding on the back of a gentle and cute horse. It was reassuring to have the guide running alongside us. If you're a complete beginner at horseback riding, it might be a bit tiring.

おとなしくて可愛い馬の背中に揺られながら、馬に乗らなければ見られない景色を楽しみました。
ガイドさんが伴走してくれるので安心でした。
乗馬が全くの初めての方だと少し疲れるかもしれません。

The day I went, the horseback riding tour I had planned was canceled due to strong winds, so unfortunately, I had to change to other activities, which was disappointing. Well, it can't be helped since it's the weather...

行った日が、すごい強風のため乗馬で見学する予定がキャンセルとなり、残念ながら他のアクティビティに変更せざるを得なかったので、残念でした。まぁ、天候なので仕方ないですが…。

Such a great experience!! Skipper Whitney the grandson of the original Smith was a delight! I will go over and over again just for the beauty and history!

I used this for my honeymoon. The weather was perfect on the day, and with calm winds, we had a stunning view of Diamond Head and the entire Maunalua Bay area, creating the best memories.

*Since the boat is small, it does sway quite a bit (which is fun too), but if you are prone to motion sickness, taking anti-nausea medication is a must. It takes a bit of time to get out to sea.

The parasailing time is 6-7 minutes, but it was thrilling enough, so it felt like plenty of time.

The captain and the pilot were both very cheerful and unique, making for a fun experience throughout!

ハネムーンで利用しました。当日は天気に恵まれ、風も落ち着いた中、ダイヤモンドヘッドからマワラ湾一帯を一望でき、最高の思い出になりました。

※船が小型のため、なかなか揺れます(それも楽しいですが)乗り物酔いしやすい方は酔い止め必須です。
沖に出るまでそれなりに移動します。

パラセイル時間は6-7分ですが、スリル満点のため、十分な時間でした。

キャプテンと操縦士もとても明るくユニークな方で、終始楽しいひとときでした！

this is a nice day on the water with a nice boat ride. Crew is very nice. It is $160 per person including transportation, and for that you get a seat on the boat maybe if you can find one, a cheeseburger with baked beans and fruit for lunch, a trip to a sandbar where either you play volleyball or stand around, then a trip to a reef to see little fish and turtles.

The staff and crew were amazing as well as the foood. The entertainment

I had a full two hours of horseback riding. I had a great time. Along the way, I also encountered some cute wild boars, which was really fun.

たっぷり2時間の乗馬。
とても楽しく過ごせました。
途中、可愛いイノシシなどにも出会えて、とっても楽しかったです。

It was cloudy and cold because it was the rainy season.
I felt that measures against the cold were necessary.
Other than that, the staff were friendly, and I enjoyed my time.

雨期だったので曇りで寒かった。
寒さ対策必要だと感じました。
それ以外はスタッフの方はフレンドリーで楽しめました。

We were picked up by Shorts exactly on time and found our guide to be helpful, kind and informative. He was a great driver and answered any questions we had. He provided clear instructions on what to do when and was very patient with our group that ranged from the elderly in a wheelchair to the young kids. He gave us options on lunch and have us plenty of time to sightsee. Shorts is highly recommended!!!

They had a great crew and did everything to make the trip wonderful: small group and lots of fun. Well worth the price.
The only reason I gave them 4 stars is that we bought water shoes for the trip and found out when we got there it was barefoot only. Would have done things differently had I known.

I am 70 years old, in pretty good shape but was worried about my ability to do this. (All the others in my group were 30-40 years). Not only was I able to do it, I kept up with the youngsters and conquered my fear of heights. The staff here were outstanding. They put safety first, remembered all of our names and kept everything fun and light hearted. The views from the platforms were spectacular and the lines were long and up high above the trees. (My only complaint would be that I wish there was a restroom maybe at the halfway point of the excursion). Other than that, I would highly recommend this for any thrill seekers out there. You did have to endure some physical as well as mental challenges along the way. There were some steep steps to climb, a bumpy ATV ride from the first platform to the second, a controlled bungee leap off of two of the platforms and one where you had to pull yourself up using a block and tackle rope pulley. Fun, fun fun……

Had the best time!! Recommend everyone do the ATV raptor tour, you get to see so much of the ranch which is just beautiful. The history of the ranch (staff is very knowledgeable about the ranch and a pleasure to have as guides) and stops that we did were great and the icing on top was that we got to see some dinosaurs! Can’t wait to go back as I would do it again.

Our entire family had so much fun on this excursion. The staff were so friendly and informative. Bring an underwater camera for great picture opportunities.

The crew was amazing! The watersports we did was so much fun! Snorkeling and water volleyball was so cool, a turtle just swam up by our net and popped in to say hi! Views were incredible as well! Highly recommend this tour

The food was good, the entertainment and the sunset view was incredible!

Booked a sunset cruise for Valentines Day 2023 with my sweetie. We had a blast! Saw whales and dolphins and had lots of laughs with the friendly and engaging crew. The drinks were great and the appetizer platter they present to each person was delicious! Shrimp, fresh fruit, hummus and crackers, cheese...yum! Thoroughly enjoyed ourselves, and they gave us roses and champagne as a special VDay treat. Thanks everyone!

I communicated my lack of confidence in swimming, so they were attentive and held my hand, allowing me to swim without anxiety. Seeing the beautiful fish and coral made the stress from the long COVID-19 pandemic disappear. I was able to rent a bodysuit and prescription mask, and the two instructors who spoke Japanese were very kind. I would like to use this service again. Thank you!

泳ぎに自信がない事を伝えていたので気を配ってくれ、手をつないでもらい不安なく泳ぎました。
きれいな魚や珊瑚をみて長かったコロナ禍でのストレスが吹っ飛びました。
レンタルのボディスーツ、度付きマスクも借りれて日本語の分かるお二人のインストラクターの方が優しいです。
また利用したいです。
ありがとうございました！

The staff who picked us up by bus had excellent communication. When we arrived at the sea, there were staff members, including the captain, who spoke Japanese, and they were very approachable, making for a very enjoyable tour. Since the snorkeling was deep, I mentioned that I couldn't swim, and the staff provided me with a float and accompanied me around the area. Without that support, I would have had to give up, so I was very grateful for their proactive assistance. The sea was incredibly beautiful, an experience unlike any other. Stand-up paddleboarding was also fun. We even saw sea turtles. The water was so clear that it felt surreal.

バスで迎えに来てくれたスタッフはコミュニケーションがとてもよかったです。海に着いた時に
船長さん含めて日本語も喋れるスタッフがいて
気軽に声をかけていただけてとても楽しいツアーを過ごせました。 シュノーケリングは深いので 泳げない事を伝えたら スタッフが浮き輪を持たせてくれて一緒に1周回ってくれました。それがなかったらリタイアしているところを積極的に声をかけて頂けたこと とても嬉しかったです。海も抜群に綺麗でした。味わえない海です。サップも楽しかったです。
ウミガメも見れました。 海の色からもう透き通っていて非現実が味わえます。

I watched it on the first day of my arrival in Hawaii.
You can listen to music from famous people in America who have connections to Hawaii.
It's very well done and interesting, with performances that you wouldn't see in Japan, so I think it's worth a look.
However, the music being played is somewhat dated, so if you're in your 30s, it might lack excitement.
I was able to watch it until the end, but my companion, since it was the first day of our arrival, slept through the whole thing from start to finish! (laughs)

ハワイ到着初日に視聴。
アメリカで有名な人の音楽でかつハワイに縁のある人の音楽が聴けます。
とても、上手で面白く、日本ではみないような演出をしてくださるので、一見の価値はあるかと思います。
ただ、流れてくる音楽の世代がいささか古いので、30代前後だと面白味に欠ける可能性はあるかもしれません。
僕は最後までしっかり見れましたが、連れは到着初日ということもあり最初から最後までずっと寝てました笑

Upon arriving at Kualoa Ranch, a staff member who spoke Japanese explained the facilities. After that, we were guided to the reception for each activity, and from then on, I communicated with the staff in English. Important instructions, such as how to ride a horse, were provided in a Japanese video, which was reassuring.

We rode horses in a single line across the vast land for two hours. Along the way, the guide explained in English that this was the location used in a scene from Jurassic World. About 30 minutes in, the horse I was riding started to act up because it seemed to have an itchy belly. For safety reasons, the guide arranged for me to switch horses. The guide handled the situation smoothly and with a smile, which helped ease my anxiety. This led to a lot of enjoyable conversations with the guide as we continued on our ride!

With Kualoa Mountain in the background, we were able to take photos, and after the tour, I received the pictures via AirDrop. Professional photos were also available for purchase for $20. This two-hour experience of riding horses and enjoying the breathtaking scenery became an unforgettable memory!

クアロアランチに着くと、日本語が話せる方が拠点となる施設の説明をしてくれました。
その後、それぞれのアクティビティの受付に案内され、それ以降は英語のみでスタッフの方と会話しました。馬の乗り方など、大切なことは日本語のビデオで説明があったので安心でした。

馬に乗って1列で広大な土地の中を2時間移動しました。途中でガイドの方から英語で、ここはジュラシックワールドのこの場面で使われたところです、などの説明が聞けました。
開始30分ほどで、私の乗っていた馬が、お腹がかゆいようで少し暴れ出しました。安全のために、ガイドさんの乗っていた馬と交換してもらいました。私が不安にならないようにガイドさんが笑顔でスムーズに対応してくれました。それをきっかけに、ガイドさんとたくさん会話しながら進むことができ、私としてはとっても楽しかったです！
クアロア山を背景に、写真を撮ってもらえて、ツアーが終わった後airdropで写真をもらうことができました。
プロの方に撮ってもらった写真も、20ドルで購入可能でした。
馬に乗って絶景を楽しんだこの2時間は、一生忘れられない経験になりました！

It was a great show and food. Very well produced and the servers were amazing

The tour guides were wonderful and the stories told were beautiful

It was later in their Whale season, didn't know if we would see many. We were not disappointed, at one point we were in Whale Jail (surrounded by them). We loved it.

The staff were so knowledgeable, learned so much about the Humpbacks.

Definitely would do this again.

The Luau event location where we ate and viewed the show was all under roof - very large roof. There is not a bad seat in the place with excellent viewing. The 3-man band for our show was outstanding! They wove the dancing and other acts into an historical account which added interest to the hula and fire dancing. Great costumes and enthusiasm from the performers. The food was medium grade with the desserts below medium grade. The process to be seated was an issue with us as a server is supposed to take you after checking in to your table. No server did that for us. Hence after everyone had been served their salads we noticed nobody brought us a salad. Their head server said since we were not seated properly we were not known to the servers as to who would be serving our table. That was a really bad answer to blame us for their mistake. Once they brought us our salad, they almost immediately were asking us to go through the buffet line for the main course and servers were asking for our unfinished salad plates. Other than this server issue, the venue and show was very good.

After arriving at the ranch, you will receive an explanation of the facilities from staff who speak Japanese, and the subsequent check-in, briefing, and activities will be in English. You can check the driving instructions for the buggy in a Japanese video, so I think there won't be any issues.

If the weather looks suspicious, don't forget to grab a poncho available for rent on-site! I was caught in a downpour during the activity and got completely soaked, but I thoroughly enjoyed racing around the off-road course in the buggy, taking in the magnificent scenery and sets that I had seen in movies. I highly recommend it!

牧場到着後、日本語ができるスタッフから施設内の説明を受け、その後のチェックインからブリーフィング、アクティビティは英語になります。バギーの運転は日本語ビデオで確認できますので、問題ないと思います。

雲行きが怪しい場合、現地で貸出しているポンチョを忘れずに！　私はアクティビティ中にスコールに見舞われズブ濡れなりましたが、オフロードをバギーで駆け巡り壮大な景色、映画で見たことのあるセットを堪能し大満足です。是非お勧めします！
