Hawaii
This boat ride was amazing. The entertainment was very good with Hawaiian hula dancing and singing. When we got to the grotto it was a short easy walk and once again we were entertained at the grotto where Elvis sang in the movie Blue Hawaii. On the trip back down river one of our guides gave us lots of history of the area including places where movies had been filmed.
It was a very pleasant morning and would recommend Smith’s Fern Grotto tours to everyone.
Very Nice, Relaxing Cruise for anyone too take. Everyone should do it one time, while Visiting Kauai.
Very pleasant evening cruise on the river and bay. Swells were too big to get out on the ocean.
Captain and 1st mate very friendly and the boat is very nice.
In Miyako Island, we had to give up on parasailing due to bad weather, but in Hawaii, we were able to do it in perfect conditions. I was the second to fly, and I was nervous seeing how high the first person went, but before I knew it, it was our turn, and we quickly ascended into the sky. It was more stable and quiet than I expected, and the view included Waikiki and Diamond Head. I felt like I was monopolizing this amazing scenery without any fear; it was the best feeling. The crew's handling of the parachute was perfect, and whether it was splashing down into the sea with just our lower bodies or landing smoothly, every group managed it effortlessly. I'm really glad we did it.
宮古島では、天候不良の為、断念したパラセイリング今回ハワイでは、絶好のコンディションで出来ました。
二番目に飛びましたが、最初の人の高さにビビってドキドキしてましたが、すぐに自分達の番になり、あっど言う間に上空へ、思ったより安定して静かに昇って行って見渡す先はワイキキとダイヤモンドヘッド、怖さも無くこの景色を独占している感じ、最高の気分でした。
クルーのパラシュートさばきも完璧で、着船前の海に下半身だけチャブンも、スムーズな着船も、どのグループも自由自在にこなしてました。
ホントやって良かった。
We had a great time on a very nice boat, friendly staff, snorkeling at a the crater, and good food. Would definitely do it again!
This trip was more affordable than others, which made us wonder what we're going to get, but it turned out better than expected! It included a nice lunch, a great location for snorkeling, and a good length of time (four hours). We saw many varied fish and the day was fun!
Mahalo for your review! We are thrilled to hear you had an enjoyable experience!
My family and I visited in October 2022 and rented paddle boards. We had an amazing paddle up the river which followed a beautiful hike up to the Falls It started raining on our way back but it was still an amazing experience. It was super easy yo rent the boards and they instructed us well on how to position them for travel. Definitely recommend and will hopefully return again.
Aloha Cindy,
Great photos.
Thanks for taking the time to share your experience renting SUP from us at Kayak Kaua'i. Many way to paddle falls and SUP is a bit more work but fun enough. Our boards are looking a little shabby and we will soon be replacing them with new and fleeter SUP's.
Until our wake cross....stay active and searching for water falls.
A hui hou,
Micco/Head Guide
It was most enjoyable. Although our trip to Lanai was short, it was a great way to get to and from the island.
Seeing Mantra rays glide gracefully beneath you was a highlight of my trip to Hawaii. I highly recommend Iruka.
Aloha Pat,
We are so happy the crew was able to provide a memorable experience for your group, and all returning customers receive a 20% repeater discount. We hope to see you again!
Mahalo,
Team Iruka Hawaii
It's been a few years since I visited Kualoa.
I participated in different activities each time.
The staff's guidance was excellent.
We were also blessed with good weather.
They took photos and videos at key moments,
which made for a great experience.
Thank you.

First timers snorkeling, we have so much fun and our guides very friendly and helpful
This is my first time in three years.

ありがとう!
Thank you!
This sunset cruise was an awesome way to end our vacation. The fireworks, food, entertainment and service was phenomenal. Ryan was our server and was so kind and service on point. Can't wait to return
The meal was delicious. However, the VIP guests ended up having their meals in a cramped seating arrangement, so there wasn't really a sense of exclusivity compared to others. The venue for the show isn't very large, so I thought that even seats in the back would be sufficient for viewing without needing to reserve VIP seats. The venue is quite cold, so a jacket is essential. There are impersonators of Elvis Presley and Michael Jackson, but they might not appeal to those from different generations. The fire show was good.
食事は美味しかったです。
ただVIP席の人たちも結局詰め詰めのお席での食事でしたので、他の方たちとの特別感は特になかったです。
ショーの会場内もそんなに広くないので、べつにVIPで予約しなくても後方の席でも十分観覧できるなと思いました。
会場はとにかく寒いので羽織ものは必須です。
エルビスプレスリーとマイケルジャクソンのモノマネさんがでてくるのですが、世代が違う方にはあまり受けないかもしれません。
ファイアーショーは良かったです。
This was one of our best experiences on Oahu. The "islands" were informative and interesting. We had an enjoyable time. Not so crazy about Pounder's Restaurant but the evening buffet was terrific. The evening show was amazing. We would do this again.
Our guide was very knowledgeable throughout the tour. However, his vast knowledge regarding planets, stars and constellations was the highlight of the tour. Would highly recommend this tour.
I must admit I almost didn’t book this tour because of the duration. I’m so glad we did though!! This tour was a fantastic blend experiences. Our guide was super knowledgeable and kept us engaged in conversation just enough. When we had stops to explore the coffee farm, black sand beach, lava tube, nighttime lava flow. None of the stops felt rushed or lingered too long. I would highly recommend this. It was one of the best experiences we had on our trip.
It was great to be able to do exactly what I wanted to do! The tour guide was cheerful and spoke in Japanese, which made it easy to understand.
自分がやりたいことをやりたいだけやれるのが良かった‼️添乗員も明るくて日本語で話してくれて分かりやすかった。
The ladies who worked there were nice and friendly. The horses seemed well cared for. It was a nice ride but we would have preferred a little faster. It was Super slow. And they made us wear a helmet which we thought was not necessary, especially with how slow we went. Also it would have looked better in the pictures without the helmet. So overall, for the price, we really would have liked these things mentioned. A little disappointed unfortunately. But it was nice and peaceful.
Since it was my first time in Hawaii, I wanted to go to a luau show on Oahu and did some research. I decided on this one because of its great location in the heart of Waikiki. It's located within the Royal Hawaiian Center, so I could shop as well, and it was very convenient being so close to the hotel.
The evening started with a buffet, and the staff were very friendly. There were people from various countries at the same table, and we all introduced ourselves, creating a warm and friendly atmosphere. Don't worry if you can't speak English! When I mentioned it was our honeymoon, they even sang a song for us on the spot, which made me really happy.
The food was very American (laughs), and there was so much of it that I ended up quite full. After the meal, we headed to the show venue. The stage was much closer than I expected, and with a live band, it felt like a concert venue. The show started with hula dancing from different eras, followed by impersonators of Elvis Presley and Michael Jackson. All the songs were familiar, and I had a great time.
The highlight was definitely the fire dance. It was truly breathtaking. Overall, I felt it was worth attending, and I highly recommend it!
初めてのハワイということで、オアフ島内でルアウショーに行きたくて色々と調べていたのですが、ワイキキ中心にあるという立地の良さで決めました。ロイヤルハワイアンセンター内にあるので、買い物もできますしホテルからとても近くて大変便利でした。
まず初めはビュッフェから始まるのですが、スタッフの方たちがとてもフレンドリーでした。同じテーブルには様々な国の方がいらしていたのですが、みんなで自己紹介しあって和気あいあいとした雰囲気でした。英語ができなくても全然大丈夫です!新婚旅行だと伝えると即興で歌ってくださり、嬉しかったです。
食事内容はザ・アメリカンという感じ(笑)とにかく量が多いのでお腹いっぱいになりました。
食事が終わるとショー会場へ。
思ったよりもステージがとても近く、生バンドということもあり、ライブハウスのような感じでした。年代ごとのフラダンスから始まり、エルヴィスプレスリーとマイケルジャクソンのそっくりさんのステージ続きました。聴いたことある曲ばかりでとても楽しめました。
そしてなりよりも凄かったのがファイヤーダンスです。とにかく圧巻でした。全体を通して行ってよかったと思いました。おすすめです!
Cousin Mitch did a great job explaining the culture, history and beauty of Haleakala on our sunset tour on Saturday October 29.
Our tour guide, Susumu, kept the atmosphere light with jokes throughout, making it a fun experience. His attention to detail was excellent, and I felt comfortable the entire time. In addition to Manoa Falls, we also enjoyed the stunning views from Tantalus Lookout, which seemed a bit hard to access. The lunch was also very delicious. I would love to join Susumu's tour again next time.
ツアーガイドのススムさんが終始ジョークで場を和ませてくださり、楽しく過ごす事が出来ました。
要所要所での気配りも素晴らしく、始終、心地よく過ごす事が出来ました。
マノアの滝に加え、アクセスの悪そうなタンタラスの丘の素晴らしい景色も楽しめました。
お昼ご飯もとても美味しかったです。
今度もススムさんのツアーに参加したいです。
I think horseback riding and buggies are great, but if you want to enjoy the scenery at a leisurely pace, this tour is perfect. You can fully enjoy the movie filming locations, the agricultural and fishery conditions, and the wonderful views of Kualoa. However, since it was an English-guided tour, I think it would have been even more enjoyable if I understood English better.
乗馬やバギーも良いと思うが、ゆっくり景色と楽しむなら、このツアー。映画ロケ地を堪能、農林水産の状況、クアロアの素晴らしい景色を存分に堪能できた。ただ、英語ガイドだったので、英語が分かればもっと楽しかったと思います。
Really enjoyed our Sunset Cruise! The staff was very friendly and welcoming, the food was delicious and the entertainment was great. The entertainers were very talented and went above and beyond to make sure everyone had a great time.
The tour guides were awesome! Made the whole experience 10X better. The float wasn’t difficult but adventurous. Kids (teenagers) smiled the whole time. Beautiful scenery! A little pricey but 100% glad we did the float!
What an amazing way to culturally connect with the indigenous peoples of Hawaii by sailing the beautiful waters like how our ancestors did. Amazing stories, singing, food and interactive activities and seeing the dolphins and honu (turtles) swimming alongside our wa’a (waka/ boat) was magical! We were well looked after and thoroughly enjoyed the friendly and relaxed hospitality. Definitely recommend this to people who are looking for an authentic, educational and fun experience of Hawaii. Mahalo!
The crew were great & I would highly recommend to others
Had a fantastic time doing the afternoon snorkel. The crew was helpful and shared interesting facts and stories about the island as we sailed. We had plenty of time to snorkel. The boat was comfortable as well with plenty of spaces to sit in the shade or sun. We also loved the fresh water showers to rinse off coming out of the ocean. We will definitely be booking with Sea Paradise again in the future.
Aloha Willner,
Mahalo for joining us. We are so happy to hear you enjoyed your time. We look forward to you seeing you all on your next visit!
I chose this excursion to surprise my Husband on out Honeymoon and we had the best time. Yoshi was kind, knowledgeable, and fun to be around. I was even able to tell him that this was a surprise for my husband and he had no idea what we were doing and Yoshi helped me keep that secret till we were at the top of the summit. Yoshi picked us up at the Lahaina Mall and made many fun stops on our way to the top of Haleakala. First was Krispy Creme where he picked us up donuts, next we stopped at Foodland so we could all get some food for sunset and the final stop was Kula Lodge located on the volcano. We then reached the summit to watch the sunset. Yoshi was so kind and took many pictures of my Husband and I. He had blankets, coats, and gloves for us as it is quite chilly at the top. We were then able to sit in his warm van and enjoy the food we had bought at Foodland and Yoshi offered us coffee that he brought. Then the fun part started, Yoshi has very high quality telescopes. We went when there was a full moon and we were able to see the moon in very high detail as well as Saturn and Jupiter and few constellations. We will definitely be coming back when we visit Maui again and we cant wait!!
I had an English instructor, but since the videos on how to ride were in Japanese, I was able to understand everything properly.
I thoroughly enjoyed riding a smart horse in the magnificent nature of Kualoa Ranch for a full two hours!
英語のインストラクターでしたが、乗馬の仕方などは日本語の動画が流れましたので、きちんと理解出来ました。
2時間たっぷりとクアロアランチの雄大な自然の中を、お利口なお馬さんに乗って堪能出来ました!
Have done this tour 5 years ago with a different vendor. Was much better with other tour group but did not recall who it was when I booked this trip. Things I did not like about this tour:
1. Was not notified I could have been picked up in Kona. So we drove over an hour when we did not have to. Another couple drove all the way to the visitor center for the same reason 2. Dinner was marginal at best. 3. Star viewing from the visitor center parking lot?? Are you kidding me? Why? Light pollution, less clear skies..what a joke. I lay that blame on the tour guide, Maka. 4. Guide is not passionate about astronomy but he can be a good guide at times. Sadly, as the night wore on so did his personality. 5. Gloves were only proffered when a man complained. Hand them out with the coats.
Bottom line: do the tour but with a different group.
