Hawaii
The staff was friendly, and we enjoyed the activities. However, some people on the same bus were being excessively noisy both on the bus and on the boat, which made us uncomfortable. There are people who want to rest on the shared bus, and it was too loud, making it difficult for us to have conversations. I understand that it might be difficult to address this on the spot, so I would appreciate it if you could raise awareness about this in your guidelines or instructions.
スタッフは親切でアクティビティも楽しめました。ただ、同じバスの方たちがバスの中や船内で度を越えた騒ぎ方をしていて不快な気持ちになりました。乗り合いバスの中は、休みたい人もいますし、騒がし過ぎて、バスや、船内では。私達の会話もほとんどできませんでした。その場での注意は難しいと思いますので、注意事項などで喚起していただけますと幸いです。
Aloha MS,
Thank you for participating in the sandbar tour with KBOS.
We are very sorry to hear that you had an unpleasant experience on the vehicle and the boat. We appreciate your valuable feedback.
We would like to take this into consideration for future improvements.

Aloha MS,
この度はKBOSのサンドバーツアーにご参加いただきありがとうございました。
車内や船内で不快な思いをされてしまったこと、大変残念に思います。
貴重なご意見をありがとうございました。
今後の課題にさせていただきたいと思います。

We had an early morning meeting, but they arrived on time to pick us up. The guidance was in English only, and since my English skills are non-existent, I couldn't understand the conversation at all, but it seemed like the guide was doing their best. (I'm sorry...) It was a mixed taxi, but the air conditioning was extremely strong, so even someone like me who gets hot easily was shivering, so I think a jacket is essential. The weather was nice, and even though it was February, we could see the beautiful sunrise.
朝早くからの集合でしたが、、時間通りにお迎えきていただけました。英語のみの案内なので、当方英語力皆無で、トーク内容は全然わかりませんでしたが、一生懸命ガイドしていただいてるようでした。(すみません。。)混合タクシーでしたが、めちゃめちゃ冷房が効いていて、暑がりの私でも震えましたので上着は必須だと思います。
お天気も良く、2月の時期でしたが朝日もきれいにみえました。
It's cold in the morning. A jacket is a must. I recommend bringing a light snack. You can change clothes in a small private room that resembles a locker for one person in the restroom.
朝は寒いです。上着必須です。軽食は持参して行くことをお勧めします。着替えはお手洗いの中に1人用の小さなロッカーみたいな個室?でできました。
My family loved the show learned much about Havaii lol and still talking and asking about what they saw days later. Thank you
Buy early
Yoshi was an excellent and knowledgeable tour guide with the whole experience being relaxed. We saw some wonderful, once in a lifetime sights. Would definitely recommend this tour.
This was my first experience snorkeling abroad, so I felt very reassured by having a Japanese guide. Unlike regular beaches, Hanauma Bay offers a unique experience with entry restrictions and mandatory viewing of an educational video upon entry. I encountered sea turtles three times, and I was able to take great photos and videos with the rented camera. The fish in the coral reefs were large and impressive. Although the actual snorkeling lasted about an hour, I think it was just the right amount of exertion for us in our mid-fifties. It was truly enjoyable! Since it was November, I followed the guide's advice and wore a wetsuit, so I didn't feel cold at all. Additionally, I was advised to take motion sickness medication beforehand, which helped me avoid feeling unwell even when the waves were high. I really appreciated the guide's helpful advice.
海外でのシュノーケリングは初体験だったので、日本語ガイド付きという点でとても安心でした。また、普通のビーチと違い、入場制限や入場時の啓発ビデオ視聴が義務付けられているハナウマ湾ならではの体験ができました。ウミガメとの遭遇も3回もあり、レンタルしたカメラでもいい写真や動画を撮ることができました。また、サンゴ礁の魚たちはサイズが大きくて、見ごたえがありました。シュノーケリング自体は正味1時間ですが、50代半ばの私たちにとってはちょうどいい負荷だったと思います。本当に楽しかったです!11月ということで、ガイドさんのアドバイスにしたがいウエットスーツを着用したので寒さも感じませんでしたし、事前に酔い止めを勧められて服用していたので、波が高くても気分が悪くなることもありませんでした。ガイドさんの適切なアドバイスがとてもありがたかったです。
The tour fee must be paid in advance via bank transfer, but please have cash ready for the entrance fee, rental equipment costs, and tips to be paid to the guide on the day of the tour. There may be c
ツアー代金は事前の振り込みですが、当日ガイドさんにお支払いする入場料、レンタル機材代、チップ、などは現金をご用意ください。クレジットカードだと端末がなくて決済ができない場合があります。
Thank you very much for joining the tour. I'm so glad to hear that you enjoyed it! It’s not often that you get the chance to see sea turtles three times, so that was great too. If you ever come back to Hawaii, please consider joining the tour again. I look forward to seeing you again. Thank you so much. Mahalo!!
この度はツアーにお越しくださり、ありがとうございました。とても楽しんでいただけたようで、私もとても嬉しいです!ウミガメに3回も会えるチャンスは滅多に無いですからそれもまた良かったですね。またハワイに来ることがありましたら、是非ツアーにリピートしてくださいね。またお会いできるのをお待ちしております。本当にありがとうございました。Mahalo‼︎
It was my first time doing ocean activities in Hawaii, and it was amazing! I was moved to see Diamond Head and Waikiki Beach from the water. I will definitely make a reservation the next time I go to Hawaii. I also plan to book a sunset catamaran next time 😊.
ハワイでの海のアクティビティは初めてでしたが、とても良かったです!
ダイアモンドヘッド、ワイキキビーチを海から見れて感動しました。
ハワイに行く際は必ず予約します。
次はサンセットのカタマランも予約しようと思います😊
The fishing guy was very helpful, fixed all the issues. Good service, but I wanted more fish.
Thank you for taking the time to give us this feedback! Great having you aboard and we all love more fish! Hope to see you again soon tight lines until next time! Mahalo!
Driving the buggy myself was so much fun! Since there were no other Japanese people besides our couple, I was a bit worried about my English, but we had an instructor for every four groups, and there was also a video explanation in Japanese, so I was able to participate in the tour with peace of mind.
自分で運転するバギーは楽しすぎました!
私たちカップル以外に日本人がいなかったため、英語に不安がありましたが、4組に1人のインストラクターがつき、日本語の説明動画もあったので安心してツアーに参加できました。
Unfortunately, the weather was not great, but the buggy didn't get wet at all, so it wasn't a problem. However, it can get dirty from the mud, so it's best to be careful with your shoes and clothes.
あいにくのお天気でしたが、バギーはほとんど濡れないので問題ありませんでした。でも泥で汚れますので靴、洋服は気を付けた方が良いです。
The gate was lowered accurately to the right spot. Therefore, I didn't have to walk a long distance. The driver was friendly, and he was happy when I gave him a tip.
ゲートもちゃんと的確なところに下ろしてくれた。よって長く歩かなくてもよかった。運転手もフレンドリー。チップをあげたら喜んでくれた。
The driver only spoke English, but he was quite friendly. When I gave him a tip, he was very happy. His driving was safe.
英語しか話さない、運転手だが、かなりフレンドリーだった。チップあげたら、大喜びしてくれた。運転も安全運転だった。
All goo very easy. Friendly drivers. You are met in arrivals hall and picked up at you hotel
All in good time. Drivers friendly and helpful with luggage
just book beforehand
Forrest was quite knowledgeable and so polite! I'm prone to motion sickness, but did not get nauseous at all in the van. Got to get out and walk along the water, pet and feed horses, and learn all about the history of the beautiful, Hawaiian valley. The gift shop was great, too, with very reasonably priced snacks and ice cream. Wonderful and memorable experience! Mahalo nui loa!
I'm not good at marine sports, but I was invited by a friend and participated. We paddled a canoe and were able to go to deep parts of the ocean that we wouldn't have dared to go to on our own. Riding the waves was fun, and the scenery was beautiful—it was the best! The instructor was also good at Japanese, which made me feel at ease!
マリンスポーツは苦手ですが友達に誘われて参加しました。
カヌーをこいで自分たちだけでは怖くて行けない海の深いところまで行けて、波に乗るのも楽しく、景色も綺麗で最高でした!
インストラクターの方も日本語が上手で安心しました!
Dear Wa,
Thank you for participating in the Outrigger Canoe Surfing service at Waikiki Beach! We're glad to hear that you had a great time. The outrigger canoe is very stable, making it accessible for those who may not be able to swim, allowing a wide range of generations to enjoy it. Next time, please consider a one-hour charter to enjoy it even longer. Mahalo!
Wa様:ワイキキビーチサービスのアウトリガーカヌーサーフィンにご参加いただき、有難うございました!とても楽しんでいただけたようで何よりです。アウトリガーカヌーはとても安定しているため、泳げない方でもご参加が可能ですので、幅広いい世代の方に楽しんでいただけます。次回は一時間のチャーターでもっと長く楽しんでください。マハロ‼
I think it can be enjoyed by everyone from small children to adults. The fusion of a show and circus makes it even more enjoyable if you understand English.
小さい子供から大人まで楽しめると思います。
ショーとサーカスの融合で英語がわかればさらに楽しめると思います。
My five year old granddaughter had a blast catching the most fish. The captain and mate took her under their thumb and gave her a first lesson she’ll never forget. Very awesome.
I was worried because it said to contact in English if there were any issues, but everything went smoothly and they picked me up on time. I'm glad.
問題があった時に英語で問い合わせと書いてあり心配でしたが、何も問題なく時間通りに迎えに来てもらいました
良かったです
For movie fans who want to experience a different side of Hawaii, I recommend this. I think you'll enjoy it even more if you understand English.
映画のファン、いつもと違うハワイを味わいたい方にはおすすめです。
英語がわかれば更に楽しめると思います。
It's all in English (laughs). My daughter, who can hear but doesn't understand English, was confused. But we managed somehow! At one point, my 4-year-old daughter was surprised and cried when she got splashed with water, but I enjoyed it until the end! They took many precious photos of my timid daughter trying her best to pet the dolphins. When you give a signal, the dolphins perform various tricks based on that signal. It was so much fun!
オールイングリッシュです(笑)
私は聞き取れても英語がわからない娘は???でした。
なんとかなります!
途中、4歳の娘はお水をかけられてびっくりして泣いてしまいましたが私は最後まで楽しめました!
ただ、ビビリな娘が頑張ってイルカさんを撫でているところなど沢山お写真に納めてくださり貴重な体験ができました。
ただ合図するとイルカさんはその合図によって色んなパフォーマンスをしてくれます。
楽しかったです〜!
You don't necessarily have to wear a swimsuit since you won't be getting in the water! Flip-flops are fine.
水に入らないので絶対水着じゃ無いとダメってことは無いです!ビーサンが良いです
Went early had breakfast - super easy check-in- very knowledgeable and helpful employees- great picture takers as well 😊 . Wish we had signed up for more. Well worth it. Enjoy!!
Everything went smoothly-tour operator picked us up on time at designated spot and returned us at appropriate time, and gave us a narrative talk about the area enroute to Diamond Head. The destination was exceptional -with amazing views of the inland and coastline. One tip- it appears that the later you go in the day the busier the trail gets. We left at 8:30 am and the crowds were manageable. If you're in Honolulu-definitely check this beauty out-and plan to get a good cardiovascular workout in climbing to the top!
One in a Lifetime Experience with the most beautiful Views
Aloha Orange County Group,
Thank you for 5star review with beautiful pictures. We are so happy that you enjoyed our tour very much.
Hope to see you again soon!

We had a great time on the glass bottom boat tour with our toddler. He loved seeing the fish and hearing about the coral reefs. It was his first time on a boat! The tour guide was very informative and was so happy to share all information he had about the island.
Aloha,
Thanks for taking the time to provide feedback about your Glass Bottom Boat Cruise. We're so happy to read that you and your son enjoyed the trip and the information provided by our crew.
We know there are a lot of activities to choose from when you're on the Big Island and we're honored you chose to spend part of your morning with us.
Mahalo and A Hui Hou
There are few photos, but the videos I took are amazing to watch later! If you go to Hawaii, you definitely should experience the 150m ride!
写真は少ないが動画を撮って、後から観ても最高!
ハワイに行ったら絶対150m体験した方がいいですよ。
It's a thrill that you can't usually experience. It's the best!
普段味わえないスリルです。最高です。
We had a really great time on our charter on Tues Nov 11th. It was blowing hard in the morning but the crew managed to find us an area that was out of the wind. Captain Zach, Gauge and Styles(?.... Can't quite remember his name) were truly the best part of the whole thing. They were all super engaging and gave a lot of information about the sea life around the island, although the Captain might need to work on his jokes a little! Haha. I would highly recommend this charter company to anyone. Thanks guys! - Leroy, Nathanda and the boys.
My family does horseback riding, so I wanted to try it in Hawaii as well! This was my first experience riding, but even someone like me was able to ride for two hours without any trouble. For experienced riders, just walking might not be enough, but the scenery is amazing as you get to ride across vast lands that you wouldn't normally experience! I'm glad I went.
家族が乗馬をやっているのでハワイでも乗りたい!ということで行きました。私は乗馬初体験でしたが、こんな私でもトラブルなく無事2時間乗っていられました。経験者には歩くだけで物足りないかもしれませんが。しかし景色は普段味わえない広大な土地を歩くので最高です!行ってよかったです。
I chose the 2-hour course, but it was quite long without any breaks, so I think the 1-hour course would be sufficient. I had trouble sleeping at night due to jet lag, and since I made a reservation fo
2時間コースを選択しましたが止まることがなくかなり長いので、1時間コースでも十分だと思います。時差ボケで夜あまり眠れず更に朝一番で予約したため、途中で心地よい振動でこっくりしてしまい危なかったです。
The hotel pickup was on time. A friendly driver took us to the location while providing sightseeing information. The weather at Hanauma Bay was perfect. Since the number of visitors is limited, we were able to enjoy snorkeling in a spacious and relaxed environment. The return pickup time was also accurate, allowing us to spend our time efficiently and as planned.
ホテルのピックアップは予定時間通り。フレンドリーなドライバーが観光案内をしながら現地まで送ってくれました。ハナウマ湾の天気は最高でした。
入場者数が制限されているので、ゆったりとしたスペースでシュノーケリングを楽しむことができました。
帰りのお迎え時間も正確で、無駄なく予定通りの時間を過ごすことができました。
I have seen both "O" and "K" before, and the content of this performance is on par with "O." The 90 minutes flew by in no time. Since it was a weekday in November, the venue was about 70% full. There were empty seats on the sides, making it relatively easy to find seats. I watched from the front row, and it was very impressive, but my neck got tired. I recommend sitting in the 4th or 5th row from the front.
今までに「オー」と「カー」を観てきましたが、公演の内容は「オー」に匹敵するほどのレベル。あっという間に90分の時間が過ぎていきました。
11月の平日ということで会場は7割程度の入り。脇の席が空いていて、比較的に席は取りやすいようでした。最前列の席で観覧し迫力満点でしたが、首が疲れます。前から4〜5列目がお薦めです。
The venue is really well air-conditioned, and it's cold in short sleeves and shorts. I think it would be a good idea to bring a jacket. (There are a lot of white men in T-shirts and shorts; I wonder i
会場内はすごく冷房が効いていて、半袖短パンでは寒いです。上着の用意をしたほうが良いかと思います。(白人の男性はTシャツ・短パンが多く、平気なんかねー)
It was an experience that exceeded my imagination. The sunset and starry sky were very moving. Yamapi's explanations were also easy to understand.
想像の上を行く体験でした。
サンセット 星空とても感動しました。
ヤマピーさんの説明もわかりやすかった
You don't have to prepare dinner; Yamapi will recommend a delicious takeout place.
夕食は準備して行かなくても、ヤマピーさんが美味しいテイクアウト店を教えてくれます
Captain Nick and crew showed us a great time on our fourth consecutive annual November sunset cruise. Each one is a little different vibe. Sunday appears to be the best day for a more peaceful vibe. Great interaction with Captain and crew. The food is OK (catered boxes) but we started scheduling a post-cruise restaurant dinner last year at nearby Fresco and enjoyed that again this year. We plan to take this cruise every year!
Dinner at a nearby restaurant after the cruise.
It was a bit different from the sandbar I had in mind, but my family who accompanied me seemed to enjoy it. I thought the staff's response was very good. I wish the light snack donuts had been malasadas.
思っていたサンドバーとは少し違っていましたが同行していた家族は、それなりに楽しめたようです。スタッフさん達の対応はとても良かったと思いました。軽食のドーナツがマラサダだと良かったなとおもいました。
I thought it would be good to check the tidal conditions for the time on the day I want to participate.
参加したい日の時間の潮の状況を確認してみたらいいと思いました、
Dear Yuzu,
Thank you for participating in the sandbar tour with KBOS. I'm glad to hear that your family enjoyed the experience. We will consider your feedback about the possibility of changing the donuts to malasadas for future tours.
I am sending you a link with information about the tides. I hope you find it helpful.
