Hawaii
Doug was an absolutely amazing guide! I ended up being the only person who could make it to the tour due to traffic for the others, and Doug made sure to make me feel both comfortable and prepared for the experience. It was my first time doing anything other than some light snorkeling and he did a wonderful job briefing me and making sure I was all set and knew what to do and expect. He was also very friendly and welcoming and by the end we knew a fair amount about each other which almost made it feel like diving with a knowledgeable buddy.
Once we got in the water I was blown away by the amount and variety of fish instantly visible, and the whole tour seemed to have something new and interesting to see every time I turned around. Doug did a great job of pointing things out and getting tons of amazing pictures. Being the only one to make it to the tour that day worked in my favor as we were able to stay out longer and Doug took the opportunity to show me as much as he could.
This was an absolutely amazing experience, and the highlight of an already great trip! I highly recommend it to anyone, whether you're an experienced diver or a complete novice like me!
This was the best activity we did as a family on our Hawaii vacation. Such a beautiful day out at sea. We snorkeled and went down the slide. My 7 and 4 year olds were swimming in the middle of the ocean and having a blast. The staff was so nice and helpful. They fed us lunch and the tacos were delicious. We got a ton of great photos as well.
Mahalo for your review! It sounds like you and your family had a fabulous time. We are thrilled to hear you enjoyed our crew and TACOS! We hope to see you again soon!
The scenery was amazing! Also, the buggy ride was fun. It got a bit dirty, but it was totally fine! The driving time was a little long. The kids were asleep. Haha!
景色が最高でした!
また、バギーも楽しかったです。多少汚れましたが、全然大丈夫でした!
運転時間が少し長かったです。子供は寝てました。笑
It's more fun to drive with a group of people!
何人かで運転した方が楽しめます!
From our pick up in Waikiki to drop off our trip was wonderful!
The team on the catamaran was friendly , knowledgeable & fun.
We will definitely book again next time we are back .
The operation of the buggy was easy, and I felt no anxiety, so I enjoyed riding for a long time. The scenery was also amazing. It would have been better if there had been a shuttle service. The ride there cost quite a bit with Uber. On the way back, the staff kindly took me close to the bus stop, so I was able to return for just $3 by bus.
バギーの、操作は簡単でしたし不安もなく、長時間乗れたので楽しかったです。
景色も最高でした。
送迎がなかったので付いていたらもっと良かった。
行きはUberでかなりかかりました汗
帰りは、スタッフの方がバス停近くまで送って下さったのでバスで3ドルで帰れました。
Since there is no shuttle service, considering the starting time and arranging for bus transportation can significantly reduce costs.
送迎がないので、始まる時間帯を考えて、バス移動ができるようにすればコストがかなり抑えられます。
The weather was nice, and above all, the instructors were all great. They took many wonderful photos, and I was so happy about that. I would like to request this again.
お天気も良く、何より、インストラクターの方々が良い方ばかりでした。素敵な写真も沢山撮って下さって最高でに嬉しかったです。
またお願いしたいです。
I think it's best to have breakfast and make sure to stay hydrated.
朝御飯、水分はちゃんととってからが良いと思います。
I had always wanted to see this, and it lived up to my expectations! The performance is themed around a unique aspect of Hawaiian history!
ずっと観てみたいと思っていまいしたが実現、期待通りのパフォーマンスでした!他とは違うハワイの歴史をテーマに演出されています!
The stage has started a bit early, about 30 minutes before the performance!
開演の30分前からちょい舞台始まってます!
My family and I really enjoyed our trip to Oahu and this excursion! The crew was amazing — super friendly, helpful, and made sure everyone was having a great time. The local Hawaiian music they played on the boat was excellent and really added to the overall vibe. Snorkeling and paddle boarding were a blast, and the views out on the bay were absolutely beautiful.
The only reason I didn’t give it a full five stars is because we didn’t really get to see the sandbar. The water was up to my chest (I’m 5’11”), so it didn’t quite have that “standing on the sandbar” experience we were hoping for. Still, it was a really fun and relaxing trip that I’d definitely recommend to anyone visiting Oahu!
Bring snacks, drinks, sunscreen
Aloha Rudy79g
Thank you so much for your thoughtful review and for joining our tour! 🌺
We’re so happy to hear that you and your family enjoyed the music, snorkeling, paddle boarding, and beautiful views of the bay — and that our crew helped make your experience special.
We understand your disappointment about not being able to fully see the sandbar. Its appearance can vary depending on tides and weather, but we truly appreciate you sharing your feedback.
We’re glad you still had a great time overall, and we’d love to welcome you back again for another day on the water — hopefully with the sandbar in full view next time!
Mahalo! 🌴
TEAM KBOS
Dan was outstanding. We had a great experience with him. He took great care of us all.
Thanks Jim, You guys did great! Hope we see you again.
The hospitality with free drinks before entering the venue, the solo guitar before it started, and the entire experience from beginning to end was very moving and created the best memories! I want to see it again!
会場に入る前のフリードリンクなどのおもてなし、始まる前のソロギター、最初から最後までとても感動的で最高の思い出になりました!
もう一度観たいです!
Definitely! Everyone, please go and see it. I think you'll have the best time!
是非!皆さんも観に行ってください
最高の時間を過ごせることと思います!
Participating with my child, we were the only non-Chinese and non-Korean people there. The 150 meters was so high that I couldn't look down; it was scary, but the view was amazing! It felt great. I think taking motion sickness medication is essential. I didn't feel sick at all because I took it, but I felt a little dizzy from swaying in the air. I didn't feel sick on the boat. It's definitely worth the experience!
親子で参加
私達以外は中国人韓国人でした
150メートルは下を見れないくらい
怖かったですが、眺めは最高!
気持ちよかったです
酔い止めは必須かなと
飲んだから全く酔わなかったけど、空中で揺れるのが少し酔いました
ボートは酔わなかったです
体験する価値ありです
Motion sickness medication is a must, I think.
酔い止めは必須かな
Everything about the day and evening was terrific ☺️
The sunset was also atmospheric, and the performances, music, and food were delicious. You can also see fireworks before returning to port. I recommend it for newlyweds and couples.
サンセットもムードありますし、演奏や音楽、食事も美味しかったです。帰港前には花火も見られます。新婚さんやカップルにはおすすめです。
The boat sways more than I expected, so if you're prone to motion sickness, it's better to take some anti-nausea medication in advance.
思ったよりゆらゆらと船が揺れるので、乗り物酔いする方は、事前に酔い止めを飲んでおいた方が良いです。
Thank you very much for visiting our Star of Honolulu with your spouse. We are honored that you enjoyed the dining and entertainment at Nova Five Star, as well as the sunset and fireworks in Hawaii. We are delighted to have been able to help create wonderful memories for you. We look forward to welcoming you back to Hawaii next time.
この度は私共のスターオブホノルル号にご夫婦でお越し頂き誠に有難うございました。ノバファイブスターでのお食事とエンターテインメントそして、ハワイでのサンセットに花火も楽しで頂きスタッフ一同光栄に思っております。素敵な思い出作りのお手伝いができた事を嬉しく思います。次回もハワイでお待ちしております。
It was my first time in Maui in 25 years, and I’m really glad I had this experience. From the moment we boarded, I felt an exciting thrill as if I was already on an attraction. The weather was great, and the beauty of it all made me forget about everyday life! The clarity of the ocean, the encounters with sea turtles, and the meals on the boat make me want to come back again!
For those who are unsure about Japanese, there is an incredibly powerful Japanese person named Takako. She embodies the energy of Hawaii. She approached me very casually, and she has such a fun personality.
I will definitely come back. MAHALO!!
25年ぶりのマウイでしたが、本当にこの体験をして良かったです。
乗船してからすぐにアトラクションに乗っているかのようなワクワク感で、天気も良く、日頃の現実が忘れられるような美しさです!
海の透明度、ウミガメとの遭遇、船上での食事ともにまた来たいと思います!
日本語に不安の方々へ
Takakoさんという物凄くパワフルな日本人の方がいらっしゃいます。ハワイのエネルギーを溜め込んでいる方です。とてもフランクに話しかけてくれて本当に楽しい人柄の方です。
かならずまた来ます。
MAHALO!!
You absolutely have to experience this. There are no inconveniences at all! During swimming, an instructor is always monitoring from a surfboard, so you can feel secure. Let's keep participating from
絶対に経験してください。
不自由はなにもないですよ!
遊泳中は常にインストラクターの方がサーフボードで監視もしてくれているので安心ですし。
日本からどんどん参加しましょう!
Super fun for all ages! Our guide, Noah, was great and entertaining the whole trip.
The red dirt will stain so dress accordingly
It started to rain after we got on the boat, and even though it cleared up, the view wasn't very beautiful. I felt like the time went by shorter than I expected. The staff were kind, which was nice.
船に乗ってから雨が降ってきてしまって晴れたけどあまり綺麗に見えなかった。。
思ったより時間が短く感じた。
スタッフの方は優しくてよかった。
Thank you for participating in the Captain Bruce's Paradise of the Sea Tour. We hope you will come back to experience the sandbar in a different light. We look forward to seeing you again.
キャプテンブルース天国の海ツアーです。ご参加頂きましてありがとうございました。
ぜひ!また違った表情のサンドバーに出会いにお越しください。お待ちしております。
The person who guided us through the facilities was very good at Japanese and quite entertaining! Driving was also a lot of fun. I read that it could get dirty, so I wore clothes that I didn't mind getting dirty, but I didn't get dirty at all. The locker was about $7.
設備の案内をしてくれた方は日本語がうまくて面白い方でした!
運転もとても楽しかったです。
汚れると記載があったので汚れてもいい服装で行きましたが全く汚れませんでした。
ロッカーは7ドルくらいでした。
I thought the cheapest seats might be far away, but that wasn't the case at all. It was very easy to see and I really enjoyed it. There were laughs and touching moments, and I'm glad I went! I highly recommend it.
1番安い席で遠いかなぁと思ったけれど、全然そんな事はなくてとても観やすく楽しめました。笑いあり感動ありで観に行って良かったです!!おすすめです。
Among the various tours available, I wasn't confident about waking up early, so I decided to join the dolphin watching tour at a later time. Neither my husband nor I speak English, but thanks to Ken, our Japanese guide, who provided solid support and care, we were able to participate without any anxiety. Although there are times when you might not see dolphins, we were fortunate to see many dolphins, sea turtles, and enjoy snorkeling on the day of the tour. They took a lot of photos for us, so we were glad we made the purchase! We definitely want to participate again.
色々なツアーがある中で早朝に起きる自信がなかったので遅い時間に参加できるイルカウォッチに決めました。夫婦2人とも英語が話せませんが、日本人のガイドのケンさんがしっかりサポートして気遣いして頂いたおかげで不安なく参加できました。イルカが見れないこともあるなか、当日沢山のイルカウォッチとウミガメとシュノーケリングできました。写真も沢山撮って下さったので私達は購入して良かったです!ぜひまた参加したいです。
It's a good idea to bring motion sickness medication, a towel, and a cover-up. If you appeal to the photographer, they will take a lot of pictures for you.
酔い止めとタオルと羽織りは持って行った方がいいです。カメラマンさんにアピールすると写真を沢山撮ってくれます。
Aloha! Thank you for participating in Dolphin University, Shinamon-sama. We appreciate the dolphin photos and the five-star rating. We hope that your encounter with dolphins and sea turtles against the backdrop of the magnificent nature of West Oahu became a special memory for you and your spouse. Also, thank you for your comments regarding the photo package and our guide, Ken! Please do come visit us again when you're in Hawaii. We look forward to your next participation. Mahalo nui and a hui hou!
アロハ! しなもんさま。イルカ大学に参加していただき、ありがとうございました。イルカの写真と五つ星評価に感謝です。オアフ西部の壮大な大自然を舞台にしたイルカやウミガメとの出会いがご夫婦の特別な思い出になったら幸いです。また、フォトパッケージの購入ならびにガイドのケンに関するコメント、ありがとうこざいます!! ぜひ、ハワイにいらっしゃる際には遊びに来てくださいね。またのご参加を心よりお待ちしております。Mahalo nui and a hui hou!
We were the only Japanese participants. It truly felt like an overseas trip. The guide is also focused on environmental protection, practicing the balance between nature conservation and tourism on the Big Island.
Additionally, they pay attention to the safety of tour participants, allowing us to enjoy the experience with peace of mind. There were plenty of fish swimming around, and the water clarity was high, making it a fun tour.
Lunch and breakfast were simple but delicious. I would love to participate again when I come back to the Big Island.
日本人の参加は我々のみ。まさに海外旅行です。ガイドは環境保護にも注力しており、ハワイ島の自然保護と観光の両立を実践しています。
また、我々ツアー参加者の危険行為にも注意を払っており、安心して楽しむことができます。魚も沢山泳いでおり、透明度も高く、楽しいツアーでした。
ランチ、朝食も手軽だけど美味しかったです。
また、ハワイ島に来る時には参加したいです。
Participants come from various places across the United States and Europe. You can fully enjoy the atmosphere of international travel.
参加者もアメリカ各地、ヨーロッパからと、様々。
海外旅行の雰囲気を存分に楽しめます。
Aloha, thank you very much for posting such a wonderful review. We sincerely appreciate that you joined us and had a great time on the water. We look forward to your next visit. Mahalo~
Aloha, 素敵なレビューを投稿していただき、誠にありがとうございます。ご一緒にお越しいただき、水上で楽しいひとときをお過ごしいただけたことに、心より感謝申し上げます。またのお越しをお待ちしております。Mahalo~
The horse was well-trained, so it followed the horse in front of it. The mountains and the sea were also breathtaking. Additionally, the attendant staff took photos along the way and sent them to us via AirDrop at the end. I would love to participate again.
お馬さんが慣れているので、前の馬に続いて歩いてくれました。また、山も海も絶景でした。また、途中アテンダントスタッフが写真に撮ったくださり、最後にエアドロで写真を下さりました。また参加したいです。
You can take photos with your camera while horseback riding, so if you're planning to take pictures with your mobile phone, having a phone strap would provide peace of mind and prevent it from falling
乗馬しながらカメラで撮影が可能なので、携帯で写真を撮られる方は携帯ストラップがあると落とす心配がなく安心かと思います。
Riding the tubes down the canal was fantastic. The guides made the trip much more fun and enjoyable.
We had a great time with Kauai Mountain Tubing Adventure. Brice, our main guide, was very experienced, safety conscious and fun. He was born and raised on Kauai so get his recommendations on things to do on the island.
The tubing in the canal and tunnels was great and another guide, Cameron, made it fun, too.
There was a wonderful lunch provided after the tubing. I highly recommend this excursion.
It was my first time parasailing, so I took motion sickness medication as a precaution, but my husband ended up getting seasick. He quickly realized it and laid down to help, responding appropriately! I felt really sorry for causing trouble, but he turned it into a joke and made us laugh. Thanks to that, it became a great memory! Thank you so much!
初めてのパラセーリングだったので酔い止めも飲んで対策したのですが夫が船酔いしてしまいました。すぐに気づいてくれて、横にならせてくれて適切な対応をしてくれました!迷惑かけて申し訳ない気持ちでいっぱいだったのですがそこはジョークで笑いに変えてくれました。おかげで良い思い出になりました!本当にありがとうございました!
When you gradually descend from the place you jumped, you might be playfully splashed into the sea (laughs). Of course, after that, you'll be lifted a bit again and lowered onto the boat. Be sure to w
飛んだ所から徐々に下降してくるときにイタズラ?で海に着水させられます(笑)
もちろんその後はまた少し上げられて船に降ろされます。必ず上下とも水に濡れても大丈夫なものを着てください。
First time parasailing
When the boat is speeding, the wind and the splashes of the waves feel really nice.
We were the last of the four groups to go.
While waiting, the swaying of the waves was manageable, but wearing the life jackets made both of us feel a bit uncomfortable around the waist and neck.
The view while flying is amazing!
初めてのパラセーリング
ボートがスピードを出しているときは、風と波しぶきがとても気持ちいいです
4組中、私たちの順番が最後でした。
待機中の波の揺れは、大丈夫だったのですが、
ライフジャケットを着て待機しているので、腰回りと首元が圧迫されて二人とも少し気持ち悪くなっていました。
飛んでいる間の景色は最高です!
You might get seasick more from the life jacket than from the rocking of the boat. Since you will get somewhat wet, I think it's best to wear clothes that you don't mind getting wet.
船の揺れより、ライフジャケットで酔ってしまうかもしれません。
それなりに濡れるので、濡れていい服がいいと思います。
It was my first experience with parasailing and marine sports! The weather was perfect, and the feeling of flying over the blue sea was truly amazing. The instructor was very kind, and I felt safe to challenge myself even as a beginner.
The banana boat ride was thrilling, and I had a great time laughing. We took a lot of photos, making it a wonderful day to remember. I definitely want to do it again! I highly recommend it!
初めてのパラセーリング&マリンスポーツ体験でした!
お天気にも恵まれて、青い海の上を飛ぶ感覚は本当に最高。
インストラクターさんもとても親切で、初めてでも安心してチャレンジできました。
バナナボートはスリル満点で、大笑いしながら楽しめました。
写真もたくさん撮ってもらえて、思い出に残る素敵な一日になりました。
また絶対やりたいです!おすすめです!
Goggles are essential. You can rent them, but there is a rental fee.
ゴーグルは必須です。
レンタル料かかりますが借りれます。
At the snorkeling spot provided, there are always turtles, and you can capture photos of them. The coral itself isn't very beautiful, but encountering turtles is a rare experience in Japan, making it worthwhile. You can also enjoy stand-up paddleboarding (SUP), but this time the water depth wasn't suitable for a sandbar, so it might be necessary to choose the right season.
付属のシュノーケリング場所には必ず亀がいて写真に納めることが出来ます。
サンゴ自体は綺麗ではないけど亀に出会えるのは日本ではなかなか無いので良い経験です。
SUPも楽しめますが、今回はサンドバーとは言えない深さの水深でしたので時期を選ぶ必要はあるかもです。
Should I check the water depth at the sandbar?
サンドバーの水深は調べた方が良いです?
Aloha! Thank you very much for joining the Captain Bruce's Heavenly Ocean Tour. We look forward to seeing you again in the Heavenly Ocean, along with the sea turtles. A hui hou!
アロハ!キャプテンブルース天国の海ツアーにご参加頂き本当にありがとうございました。
天国の海でまたお会いできる日をウミガメともにお待ちしております。A hui hou!
I made a reservation for a day I could go, so I wasn't quite sure where the sandbar was since the sea was quite deep, but the scenery was dreamily beautiful, and I was very satisfied to see sea turtles! Even if you get tired from swimming, you can take a break on the boat, and you have quite a bit of freedom to enjoy your time on-site. There were light snacks provided, which gave it a picnic-like excitement. Since the food was available at any time, we ate when we came back to the boat for a break. The driver who picked us up also gave us a tour of the area while driving, making the journey enjoyable! I want to go again!
行ける日にちに予約したのでけっこう海が深くてどこがサンドバーなのかよくわかりませんでしたが夢のように美しい景色が広がっており、ウミガメも見れたので大満足です!
泳ぎ疲れても船で休憩したり、現地では割と自由に過ごせます。
軽食がついており、ピクニックのようなウキウキ感がありました。
いつでも食べられるようになってるので私たちは休憩に船に上がって来た時に食べました。
送迎のドライバーさんも周辺を案内しながら送ってくれるので道中も楽しく過ごせました!
また行きたいです!
Since you'll be going home in a wet swimsuit, it can get quite cold, so I think a jacket is essential.
濡れた水着のまま帰ることになるのでけっこう寒いので上着は必須だと思います。
Aloha! Thank you very much for joining the Captain Bruce's Paradise of the Pacific tour. We look forward to seeing you again in Paradise with the sea turtles. A hui hou!

The ferry was great - a bit expensive at$70 each direction. We were able to see all the highlighted stops on Lana’i in just one day. Fun little town diner for breakfast. We used a Jeep to explore the island - another $200. So, for two of us to explore for one day was about$700. This is our 5th trip to Maui so we were curious to explore a nearby island.
Arrive early if you want to see all stops.
We had a wonderful experience with captain Zach and Bailey They both were very friendly and knowledgeable. Great value. Boat was clean well organized and comfortable.
