Hawaii
Transportation from Waikiki was smooth and stress-free. Then having reserved USS Arizona Memorial tickets was a huge advantage and allowed us to avoid long lines and make the most of our time at Pearl Harbor!
The Polynesian show was super entertaining feeling very luau esque! Also sailing along the Waikiki coastline at sunset was beautiful, and the Friday night fireworks were the perfect finale!
The scenery was absolutely stunning with cliffs, sea caves, and vibrant colors as the sun set over the Pacific.
Our pilot was friendly, skilled, and knowledgeable, sharing details about Kauai’s landscapes, history, and hidden valleys throughout the flight!
Mahalo for taking the time to share your experience! 🌺
We’re so happy to hear you enjoyed your flight and that your pilot made it both informative and memorable. Our team loves sharing Kauai’s incredible landscapes, history, and hidden valleys from the air—it’s truly a special perspective. We’ll be sure to pass your kind words along to the pilot. Thank you for choosing Mauna Loa Helicopter Tours, and we hope to welcome you back for another unforgettable adventure in the skies!
The highlight was the show. You can truly feel the pride and heart the Smith family puts into this luau!
Our guide was extremely knowledgeable sharing rich history and stories that really brought Waipio Valley to life. Navigating the roads with this company felt safe, and the off-road portion allowed us to access areas we never could have reached on our own! A win
I was able to take a wonderful walk along the beach this morning on a very calm and intelligent horse! The height of the view was also fantastic.
とってもおだやかで賢い馬に乗って
朝からとってもいい気持ちで浜辺を散歩できました!
目線の高さも最高です
There is nothing around! You can't enter the beach on your own. It was completely a private beach.
周りには何もないです!
ビーチの方には勝手に入れません
完全にプライベートビーチでした
It was early in the morning and the outside was completely dark, so I felt quite anxious about interacting with the locals. However, once it was over, it turned out to be a very smooth tour. The driver was really friendly and cheerful, and he provided appropriate advice while mixing in some jokes, which was a great help. When we reached the summit, it started to rain heavily, and we ended up soaking wet on the way down. However, the view from the top was amazing, and that moment when I could see the entire cityscape of Waikiki was truly moving.
朝早い時間で外は真っ暗で、現地の方とのやりとりということでかなり不安はありましたが、終わってみれば非常にスムーズなツアーでした。ドライバーの方は本当に気さくで明るい方で、冗談も交えながら適切なアドバイスもしてくださって大変助かりました。私達が頂上に到達した時に丁度かなりの雨が降ってきてしまい、帰り道はびしょ濡れになりながらの下山でした。ですが、頂上から見た景色は素晴らしく、ワイキキの街並みを一望できたあの瞬間は感動しました。
In our case, the weather was irregular, but I think it would be tough for those who are not used to exercising if they're not dressed comfortably. If it rains, puddles can form, so I also recommend go
私達の場合はイレギュラーな天候でしたが、動きやすい格好でないと運動に慣れていない人は大変だと思います。雨が降った場合は水たまりもできてしまうため、汚れても良い格好で行くこともお勧めします。
Our tour leader, Clive, was full of information and island stories. He made the tour “come alive,” and we feel we know much more about the island.
Perhaps add another actual tour hour?
I really had a great time and felt wonderful; I wanted to keep flying forever! My rebellious son was also very satisfied. The staff were nice, which made it easy to enjoy myself.
本当に楽しく気持ち良くて、ずっと飛んで?いたかったです!
反抗期の息子も大満足でした。
スタッフの方も良い方で安心して楽しめました。
Since you'll get quite wet, I recommend wearing a swimsuit.
かなり濡れるので、水着がおすすめです。
My spouse and I tried kayaking for the first time in Hawaii on our wedding anniversary! The guide was incredibly kind, handsome, and fluent in Japanese. He taught us how to operate the kayak with great care, and we were blessed with beautiful weather, making it the best tour ever! Even as a couple approaching our sixties, thanks to our wonderful guide, we created unforgettable and extremely fun memories. Thank you very much!
夫婦で、結婚記念日に訪れたハワイで、カヤック初挑戦!
ガイドさんが、とっても親切で、ハンサム、おまけに日本語もペラペラ、カヤックの操作も丁寧に教えて下さって、お天気にも恵まれて、最高のツアーでした!
還暦間近の夫婦でも、素晴らしいガイドさんのお陰で、めちゃくちゃくちゃ楽しい思い出になりました。ありがとうございました。
Dear Nakapon,
Thank you for participating in the tour and for writing a review. We are very happy that you were able to create one of your enjoyable memories with us. When you come back to Hawaii, please be sure to visit Kailua again. We look forward to seeing you.

We had a great time. All the performances at the islands were perfect. The food was good, but next time we will try to get there earlier so that the line isn’t as long. Ha was stunningly beautiful!
Our guide Hoku was amazing. The conversation was interesting, and it was fun to communicate in multiple languages! The hike was just right for elementary school students, and we enjoyed plenty of negative ions.
ガイドのHokuさんが、最高でした。話しも面白く、多言語話せて楽しかったです!
小学生もちょうど良いハイキングができてマイナスイオンたっぷりでした。
Even if the weather in the city is nice, you can't tell about the mountains, so a poncho is essential. Also, it's better to wear shoes.
街の天気が良くても、山は分からないのでポンチョは必須。あと、靴の方が良いです。
Aloha,
Thank you very much for participating in the tour. We are also very pleased to receive your kind words about our guide. It is a great encouragement for them to know that you enjoyed their approachability and multilingual guidance.
We are relieved to hear that you were able to enjoy a manageable hike in the natural surroundings of Manoa with your elementary school-aged child. The environment filled with negative ions truly showcases a different charm of Hawaii compared to the city.
Thank you as well for your advice regarding the weather and clothing. As you mentioned, mountain weather can change rapidly, so it is very important to prepare ponchos and comfortable shoes. Your feedback will be very helpful for those who will participate in the future.
We look forward to seeing you again on a tour where you can fully enjoy nature when you visit Hawaii again.
Thank you!
Mahalo!
アロハ、
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。
また、ガイドへの温かいお言葉をお寄せいただき、大変嬉しく思います。話しやすさや多言語でのご案内をお楽しみいただけたとのこと、本人にとっても大きな励みになります。
マノアの自然の中で、小学生のお子様にも無理のないハイキングをお楽しみいただけたようで安心いたしました。マイナスイオンたっぷりの環境は、街中とはまた違ったハワイの魅力ですよね。
また、天候や服装についてのアドバイスもありがとうございます。おっしゃる通り、山の天気は変わりやすいため、ポンチョや歩きやすい靴のご準備はとても大切です。これから参加される方にとって、非常に参考になるご意見です。
ぜひまたハワイにお越しの際は、自然を満喫できるツアーでお会いできることを、スタッフ一同楽しみにしております。
ありがとうございました!
マハロ!
Great snorkeling spot! Not many turtles but that can't be controlled! Some other groups saw a lot!
Aloha Kelli,
Thank you so much for your 5 star revies. We are very happy to hear that you enjoyed your sandbar tour with us.
We hope you will be able to see turtles next time. We hope to see you again soon!

From the moment we pulled into the parking lot the staff greeted us and helped direct our check in. Everything was smooth and organized. The wait staff were friendly, helpful and willing to go above and beyond to accommodate any requests.
The music, performances and cultural areas were lovely and educational.
We enjoyed the food offerings that helped teach us of the local faire.
Book in advance!
First, we received a lecture and then paddled out to sea. When the waves came, we paddled with all our might. If you manage to ride the waves, you can experience an incredible sense of exhilaration. The three rounds ended in no time, and I was very disappointed. I wanted to do it more.
最初にレクチャーを受けて、パドルを漕いで沖へ。波が来たら全力で漕ぎます。うまく波に乗ればこの上ない爽快感に浸れます。3回があっという間に終わりとても残念です。もっとやりたいと思いました。
At first, you may struggle to paddle well, but there's no need to rush.
最初はうまくパドルが漕げませんが、焦る必要はありません。
Thank you for the 5-star rating, TODO! Next time, if you book a 1-hour charter, you can enjoy unlimited rides during that hour, so please give it a try! Wishing you a Happy New Year! Hau'oli Makahiki Hou!
TODO様:5つ星のレイティング、有難うございました!次回は1時間のチャーターにお申し込み頂ければ、1時間の間乗り放題ですのでお試しください!ではよいお年をお迎えください!Hau'oli Makahiki Hou!
The service is excellent and we are really appreciate our experience.
Stars are much more vivid at 10,000+ feet, even with naked eyes.
It’s well organized and we wish we can go back and re-take the trip, if possible.
Bring your coat, the thick one. It’s 40F (5 deg. C) on the top.
I usually use a shared shuttle, but it was fully booked, so I decided to try this service for the first time. It was smooth and very comfortable. The driver had a great vibe, which made for a wonderful start to my trip to Hawaii.
いつも利用している乗り合いシャトルが満席だったので、初めてこちらを利用してみました。すると、スムーズだしとても快適でした。運転手さんも良い雰囲気でしたので、良いハワイ旅行のスタートが切れました。
It was a domestic move, and overall it was on time. The only concern I have is regarding the content in the email I received, which mentioned a kiosk before the baggage claim, but there isn't one in reality. I searched everywhere and couldn't find it, and when I called, it was confirmed that there is no kiosk. Please provide an update, as this is confusing.
国内移動でしたが、概ね時間通りでした。
唯一気になるのは、頂いたメールに書かれている内容で、バゲッジクレーム前にあるキオスクとありますが、実際にはありません。
私も探しまくり見つからなくて電話したら、キオスクはないことが判明しました。混乱するので、更新をお願いします。
If there is a kiosk mentioned for the pickup meeting point, it is recommended to confirm the correct location in advance.
送迎の待合せにキオスクの記載がある場合、正しい場所の事前確認をお薦めします。
This is the second time we took this activity in Honolulu. My kids love the banana boat and the bumper tube so much . Will come again next time.
Aloha Tina,
Thank you so much for your 5 star revies. We are very happy to hear that you enjoyed your sandbar tour with us.
We hope to see you again soon!
Mahalo,

It was the first snorkeling experience for our two children, but with the reassuring Japanese guide and the lessons provided, the whole family was able to enjoy it, making it a memorable option for us. Thank you very much for your help.
子供2人が初シュノーケリングでしたが、安心の日本語ガイドと講習もあり、家族全員で楽しめ記憶に残るオブションになりました。大変お世話になりました。
It's safe even with children.
子供連れでも安心です。
Thank you for participating in the tour with your family. I'm very happy to hear that everyone enjoyed it, and so is Dan. If you come back to Hawaii, we would love for you to join us again, and next time I hope to take you out to the ocean as well. We are always here waiting for you. Thank you very much. Mahalo!!
この度はご家族様でツアーにご参加いただき、ありがとうございました。皆様に楽しんでいただけたようで、私もDanもとても嬉しいです。またハワイにお越しの際にはリピートしていただければ、次回は沖の方へもお連れしたいなあと思っております。いつでもお待ちしております。本当にありがとうございました。Mahalo‼︎
I took a group lesson with my wife and our two sons, aged 20 and 17. The instructor was a Japanese person who has lived in Hawaii for a long time, and he taught us in a very easy-to-understand manner, incorporating humor. Everyone was able to surf in no time, and the two hours flew by.
妻、20歳と17歳の息子達とグループレッスンを受けました。インストラクターはハワイ在住が長い日本人で、とても分かり易く、ユーモアを交えながら教えてくれました。皆あっという間にサーフィン出来るようになり、2時間あっという間でした。
Even beginners can start surfing right away.
初心者でもすぐにサーフィン出来るようになります。
Horseback riding was amazing! I spent a relaxing two hours in the great outdoors, listening to the soothing sounds of the horse's hooves and the waves, which truly healed both my mind and body.
Inside Kualoa Ranch, there are souvenir shops, a buffet, and cafes. After horseback riding, I enjoyed coffee and a fresh taro bun mahi-mahi burger at the cafe. It was freshly made and incredibly delicious! The coffee was unlimited refills!
乗馬、最高でした!
大自然の中をのんびり、パカパカと心地の良い馬の足音や波の音を聴きながらたっぷり2時間ほど、心身ともに癒されました!
クアロアランチ内にはお土産物屋さんやビュッフェやカフェなどもあります。
乗馬の後、カフェでコーヒーやタロバンズのマヒマヒバーガーなどをいただきました。
出来立てですごく美味しかったです!
コーヒーはおかわり自由でした!
It rained lightly along the way, but my clothes dried quickly. It wasn't cold, but depending on the strength of the rain, warm clothing might be necessary. It seems that the event goes on rain or shin
途中パラパラと雨が降りましたが、衣服はすぐに乾きました。寒さもありませんでしたが、雨の強さによっては防寒は必要かもしれません。雨天決行だそうです。
希望者には無料でポンチョの貸し出しもありました。
This time in Hawaii, we happened to have a stretch of good weather, but this day was the only cloudy one. However, it felt like the weather from a Jurassic movie, and since it rained a little before we went, there was no dust. I enjoyed it even more than I expected. Next, I want to try riding a bike.
今回のハワイはたまたま天気が良い日が続きましたが、この日だけが曇り。ただジェラシック映画と似たような天気で体験でき、少し雨も行く前に降ったことで土煙もなく、期待した以上に楽しめました。次はバイクに挑戦したいです。
Please make sure to experience it at least once.
是非、1度は体験ください。
I use this place every time I go to Hawaii. The food is delicious, of course, but I recommend it because there's no hassle with tips and such. There is gelato on the menu, but when I checked, they said it wasn't available right now, and I was told it was a problem with Veltra, which was disappointing.
ハワイに行くたびに利用しています
料理が美味しいのはもちろんですが
チップ等の煩わしさがないのでオススメです
メニューにジェラートがありますが
提供がなく確認したら今はないとの事で
ベルトラの問題だと言われたのが
残念でした
I waited 30 minutes for the bus from the airport to the hotel. That was still okay, but despite the fact that the Ramada Plaza Hotel is relatively close to the airport and near Ala Moana Center, the bus took a long detour, dropping off everyone else before stopping at the hotel. It should have taken less than 30 minutes if it went straight, but it took 1 hour and 20 minutes, which made me really angry.
The return trip from the hotel to the airport was just as bad. I waited and waited, and when I called, they said it would arrive in about 20 minutes, but it ended up being about 50 minutes late in total. The meeting point was supposed to be the "hotel front rotary," but they only came to the road in front of the hotel and apparently left without even looking for me. If I hadn't called, they probably would have never come. I will never use this service again.
空港→ホテルはバスを30分待った。それはまだいいけど、ラマダプラザホテルというアラモアナセンターに近い、比較的空港に近いホテルにも関わらず、大回りしまくってほかの人を全部降ろしてからホテルに立ち寄った。まっすぐいけば30分かからないはずだが、1時間20分かかってマジ切れそうでした。
ホテル→空港も待てど暮らせど来ず、電話したら20分ほどで来たが、トータル50分ほど遅れた。「ホテル前ロータリー」が待ち合わせ場所だったのに、ホテル前の道路にしか来ず、しかも全く探さずそのまま行ってしまったらしい。電話しなかったら永遠に来なかったようだ。二度と使わないです。
It's better not to use it.
使わないほうがいいです。
Once again this year, I had the pleasure of being taken care of by Chieko-san, and it was a delightful and moving experience. My husband and I are 66 years old, so we were a bit concerned about our physical stamina, but we were amazed by the fish and turtles, and the hour flew by in no time. We were able to see a pair of turtles, and we also saw a turtle coming up to the surface for air. This year, we created the best memories once again.
昨年に引き続き今年もチエコさんにお世話になり楽しく感激しましたよ。主人と私は66歳なので体力的にどうかなと思っていましたが魚や亀に感激してあっという間の1時間でした。ペアの亀を観られたし呼吸のため水面から顔を出す亀もみられたし、今年も最高の思い出ができました。
If you want to see turtles at Hanauma Bay, I recommend this tour. However, it's not guaranteed that you'll see them.
亀をハナウマ湾で観たいならこのツアーがお勧めです。必ずしも観られるとは限りませんが?
Thank you for repeating the tour with us this time. It was great to see the turtles again this year! It's not guaranteed that you'll see them every time, so you were lucky. I'm really happy to hear that you enjoyed it, and so is Dan. We look forward to seeing you again when you come back to Hawaii. Thank you! Mahalo!!
この度はツアーにリピートしていただき、ありがとうございました。今年も亀に会えて良かったですね♪ 毎回会えるとは限りませんので、ラッキーだったんですよ。楽しんでいただけたようで本当に私もDanも嬉しいです。またハワイにお越しの際にはお会い出来ますことをお待ちしております。ありがとうございました。Mahalo‼︎
I was very satisfied with the beautiful sandy beach and activities. I was hoping to see sea turtles, but it was a bit disappointing that I didn't get to see any. The staff were all cheerful and fun people.
きれいな砂浜とアクティビティで大満足です。
ウミガメを期待してましたが、会えなかったのが少し残念です。
スタッフは皆さん明るく楽しい方々でした。
Aloha Kazuki,
Thank you for participating in the sandbar tour with KBOS. We also appreciate the 5-star review you gave us. While there are times when you can see sea turtles, it's not always guaranteed. We hope you get to see them on your next visit.
We look forward to your next participation.
Mahalo,

Aloha かずき様
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。5スターのリビューもいただきありがとうございます。

The team was extremely helpful in explaining the events. I brought my wife and in-laws from Japan with us. We felt the Aloha immediately! We were worried about the cloudy morning but just as we set sail the sun came out in during our ride. We got to spend a good amount of time in the sun and enjoyed the music from the performers on board. Tip your performers, people! They can sing all the island tunes 10/10. We will certainly book again for our next trip and bring our kids. Mahalo and many thanks from Seattle, Wa.
Aloha Jan,
Thank you so much for your 5 star revies. We are very happy to hear that you enjoyed your sandbar tour with us.
We hope to see you again soon!

I’m not good at online booking. I did booked because of all you can eat buffet but when we got there , says I didn’t signed in for food. The web pages not clearly says that it has to be separated account.
I still don’t know how I missed it
It was special date for my niece’ wedding present but end up couldn’t feed them.
Yes we loved show but empty stomach…
Please clear separated if there is not included meal
