BK was our tour guide and driver. I know now why he was Driver of the Year in 2023. Very knowledgeable on every facet of the tour. It was our first trip to Honolulu and he provided an excellent dialogue on everywhere we visited. (and even some we didn’t!) The bus was exceptionally clean and comfortable and our scheduled pickup was exactly on time at both ends of the tour.
The wind was strong and personally a bit scary, but the staff were very friendly and spoke to ease my anxiety, allowing me to have an enjoyable experience. My daughter wanted to try parasailing, so we signed up here, and we were very satisfied.
風が強く個人的にはちょっと怖かったですが、スタッフの皆さんがとてもフレンドリーで不安を和らげるよう声をかけてもらい、楽しく体験することができました。
一緒に行った娘がパラセイリングをしたくでこちらに申し込んだのですが、大満足です。
You might need motion sickness medication. Just in case, I took some, so I was able to enjoy myself without feeling nauseous. I recommend the aerial walk.
酔い止めは必要かもしれません。
念の為飲んで行ったので、酔うこともなく楽しめました。
空中散歩おすすめです。

I had a wonderful time slowly watching the sunset from the boat. I was honestly disappointed that I only caught a glimpse of a whale's tail in the distance.
船にのり沈む夕日をゆっくり見れて素敵な時間を過ごせました。クジラは遠くの方にシッポだけちらっと見えただけで、正直残念でした。

I had a great time enjoying the fireworks from Hilton, the night view, and the starry sky over the ocean. The boat was spacious and had an open bar, so I was able to fully enjoy the Hawaiian atmosphere. The Mai Tai was also delicious.
海の上からヒルトン花火、夜景、星空を鑑賞できて楽しかったです。船も開放的でオープンバーもあるので、ハワイの雰囲気を満喫できました。マイタイもおいしかったです。
It is recommended to bring a jacket as it can be quite windy and chilly on the sea.
海の上は風が強く肌寒いので、上着を持っていくことをおすすめします。
マハロ - なんて素晴らしい写真でしょう！オープンカタマランは日没後に肌寒くなるので、今後のゲストへのアドバイスを感謝します！
Mahalo - what a stunning photo! The open catamaran does get chilly after sunset, and we appreciate your tips for future guests!

I had seen the water show by Cirque du Soleil in Las Vegas before, so I wasn't expecting much this time, but it was surprisingly impressive for its smaller scale. It was great to have seats up high, as I could see the whole performance. It seems that sitting lower could lead to a sore neck.
ラスベガスでシルクドソレイユの水のショーを見たことがあったので、今回はあまり期待はしていなかったのですが、規模が小さいわりには見ごたえがありました。
席が上の方だったので全体を見渡せて良かったです。
下の方の席だと首が痛くなってしまうようです。
I think it's a good idea to bring something to wear since the air conditioning is strong.
冷房が効いているので、羽織るものを持っていったほうが良いと思います。

AUANA was absolutely wonderful! It was immersive and had the best performance! If you're going to Hawaii, you definitely should see it.
AUANAとっても素晴らしかったです！
臨場感と最高のパフォーマンスでした！

The river cruise to the fern grotto was a lot of fun. The local info shared was insightful and gave us several other sites to see. The entertainment was well done and fun. The walk up to the grotto was beautiful! All in all, a great outing that was a lot of fun.
Our experience at the luau was amazing! Our server was highly professional and efficient, making the evening even more enjoyable. The table service and open bar were definitely worth the price. The show was outstanding—just a heads-up, there’s no fire show. Overall, we highly recommend it!
After arriving from Waikiki, I received explanations about luggage and lockers from the Japanese staff and headed to the reception for each activity. The two-hour horseback riding was very fulfilling, as I could see the ocean and passed very close to a herd of cattle. The gentle ups and downs were quite surprising from atop the horse.
ワイキキから到着後、日本人スタッフの方から手荷物やロッカーなどの説明を受け、各アクティビティの受付に向かいました。2時間の乗馬は海が見えたり、牛の群れのすぐ近くを通ったり、軽いアップダウンも馬の上からだと結構びっくりしたり、とても充実しました。
I had about an hour until the bus back to Waikiki, but after retrieving my luggage from the locker and resting a bit, I ended up waiting in line for just over 30 minutes to buy lunch. It might be a go
ワイキキへ戻るバスまで1時間ほど時間がありましたが、ロッカーから荷物を取り出して少し休んだら、お昼ご飯を買うのに30分ちょっと列に並ぶ羽目になりました。食事付きのツアーにしてもいいかもしれません。

A truly unique experience. As you board the spacious and comfortable bus in Waikiki the staff prepares you for your journey. You are given a virtual reality headset that is adjustable and comfortable. The virtual reality is interactive, and educational. As the bus is moving it actually feels like your body is moving through the experience. The colors, animals, and sounds felt so real!
Would not recommend if you are prone to motion sickness. Would recommend if you are interested in virtual reality, and enjoy a fun ride. Comparable to a smooth rollercoaster.
This was the best tour we’ve ever been on! Marie was fantastic and a wealth of really interesting knowledge! We all learned so much history and she took us to many great sights! Highly recommend Blue Hawaii tours!
Just do it! You will not be disappointed!
Aloha Lana,
Thank you for your review. I'm so happy you enjoyed your tour.

It was my first time snorkelling, and the experience was fantastic! The equipment was clean, well-maintained, and easy to use. If you're not comfortable swimming in the ocean like me, I highly recommend renting a life vest for extra confidence.
From the start, everything was well-organized. The shuttle bus driver was friendly and informative, sharing insights about Oahu’s geography, and pointing out tourist attractions and great restaurants along the way. He even handed out pictures of ocean creatures we might spot, which made the ride even more exciting!
Overall, a great experience, I’d definitely recommend it!
renting a life vest for extra confidence if you don't swim well in the ocean
This was a very traditional Hawaiian experience. Enjoyed it very much!
There were some things I didn't quite understand in English, but they kindly explained everything in an easy-to-understand way, and the activities themselves were enjoyable and memorable. Thank you! 😊
英語でちょっと理解できないこともありますが、親切にわかりやすく話しもして頂き、アクティビティ自体も楽しく心に残ったアクティビティでした。

We spotted them about five minutes after setting sail! After that, they continued to show us blows, breaches, tail slaps, and pectoral slaps one after another. Although we weren't very close, I was completely satisfied with how frequently they performed their "dance."
Fortunately, the Hilton Waikoloa where I stayed had a room at the very end facing the ocean, and during the morning and afternoon, I could see blows and breaches in the distance. I participated in the tour in early March, and it seems to be the perfect time for whale watching, as we encountered them frequently.
We were blessed with good weather; there were some waves, but the boat's rocking was less than I had worried about, making for a comfortable journey.

We had so much fun. The tour was easy to follow. Beautiful fish, coral, anemone, and more. Definitely check it out
Snorkeling was fun. The boat is nice, large, and stable. The two singers are good.
And the sneaky little creep sitting next to us at the next table reached right into my beach bag and stole my Yeti Coffee Cup and lid. We did not want to make a big scene. He was really fast and he and his "girl" were the only two people within 15 feet of us as Patsy and I had the front starboard corner of the boat. Keep an eye on your possessions. The staff on the boat are very conscientious and polite.
Watch your possessions.
Aloha Steve,
Mahalo for joining our KBOS Sandbar tour and for taking the time to share your review.
We're so sorry to hear about your experience. Please know that we're taking immediate steps to remind our crew to be even more vigilant about the safety of personal belongings and to better inform our customers. Our goal is to ensure this doesn't happen again.
We're happy to hear you enjoyed the tour overall, and we hope to have the pleasure of welcoming you aboard again in the future!

We had a fun experience with a muscular local guy in the front and back of the canoe, while the three of us seniors sat in between. We paddled with the commands of the guy in the back, who would say "right" or "left." If we made a mistake, he would point it out in Japanese by saying "number one opposite." He also scooped out the seawater that came into the canoe with a bucket. It felt great to ride the waves in the canoe, but next time, I want to experience it with even bigger waves!
カヌーの前後にマッチョな地元のお兄さんが乗り､その間に私たちシニアの3人が乗り込み、後ろのお兄さんの右､左､と言う掛け声でオールを漕ぎます､間違ったら番号で1番反対〜と日本語で指摘されたり､カヌーの後ろに入ってくる海水をお兄さんがバケツでかき出したり楽しい体験でした👍
波に乗ってカヌーが進むのが気持ち良かったでも､次はもっと大きな波で体験したいと思います
You can take photos with a waterproof smartphone case. I was disappointed that I forgot to bring it.

Dear Yumi Barba,
I'm glad to hear that you enjoyed the outrigger canoe surfing. Regarding the photos, we cannot recommend taking your phone with you, as it would hinder your paddling and there's a risk of dropping it in the water. We do offer a separate photo service for an additional fee, so please consider using that. We look forward to your next visit.
ゆみばーば様：アウトリガカヌーサーフィンを楽しんで頂けたようでなによりです。写真の件ですが、弊社ではお勧めが出来ません。携帯を持っていますと、パドルが出来ないのと、水中に落とさせる可能性があるからです。弊社では別料金で写真のサービスも提供しておりますので是非ご利用ください。またのお越しをお待ちしております。

Although the clouds and full moon made it difficult to see a beautiful sunset and a starry sky, Yamapi's thoughtfulness and conversation were excellent. I definitely want to try again.
雲が多いのと満月で綺麗な夕日や満天の星空は残念でしたが、ヤマピーさんのお心遣いと会話は最高でした。又是非トライしたいと思います
This tour is recommended on dark nights in July and August. Additionally, there is a smoking area at the summit, which is appreciated by smokers, but only if a fire is lit.

It was a very nice bus, and there was a restroom, so it was comfortable. The driver, who also served as the guide, was enthusiastic and entertaining. Since it was an English tour, I only understood parts of it, but I still enjoyed it even though my English isn't great.
However, we visited many places, so the time spent at each location was short, and waiting in line for the restroom further reduced our sightseeing time, which was a bit unsatisfying. The malasadas we had along the way were delicious.
凄く立派なバスでお手洗いもあったので、快適でした。運転兼ガイドの方も説明も熱心で面白かったです。英語のツアーなので、所々しかわからなかったのですが...
英語が不得意でもたのしめました。
ただ、沢山回るのでそれぞれの滞在時間が短くて、トイレに並ぶと見学時間が余計に短くなってしまい、ものたりなかったです。
途中で頂いたマラサダま美味しかったです。
Each stay is short, so be careful not to be late for the meeting time if you don't move quickly.

On the first night of my first trip to Hawaii, I attended a buffet and show. After arriving in Waikiki, I quickly went shopping and got my outfit ready before heading to the buffet. The food was delicious, and it was fun to be invited by the staff to dance together at the end.
After the meal, everyone was excited about the diverse show. I felt moved by the professionalism of the performance, but I hesitated to share too much about the content to avoid spoilers.
On the way back, I was able to take commemorative photos with the dancers, making it a valuable experience. It really immerses you in the spirit of Hawaii!
初ハワイの初日の夜にビュッフェ&ショーを持ってきました。ワイキキに入ってから早速ショッピングに出かけて、衣装も揃えて先ずはビュッフェへ。料理は美味しくて、最後はスタッフより声を掛けられて一緒に踊るのも楽しかったです。
食後は多彩なショーにみんな大盛り上りでした。内容に触れるとネタバレ的になるとどうかな？と思うので、プロ意識の高いショーに感動を覚えました。
帰りにはダンサー達と記念撮影もできて、価値ある体験だったと思います。

This was an absolutely amazing experience and I highly recommend! The view is stunning- truly unbelievable. You feel as if you have been transported to another world.
Tips from someone who has been there-
Dress as if you are visiting a frozen tundra. Its cold.
Take someone you love with you so you have a witness to what you are seeing- this helps to ease your mind from thinking its a dream. You will be in disbelief of the awesome beauty.

I enjoyed a 2-hour horseback riding tour with a group of about five Japanese people and a female staff member. The staff was very cheerful and provided advice in simple Japanese. Unfortunately, it rained the entire time, so we couldn't see the magnificent scenery very well. I definitely want to experience it again when I visit Oahu.

A packed itinerary with Dole Plantation, horseback riding, and Haleiwa.
The driver was very kind and shared various stories about Hawaii to keep us entertained during the ride.
The horseback riding staff only spoke English, but the driver, who had experience with horses, provided a thorough explanation beforehand, so I was able to enjoy it without any worries.
It was a pleasant time swaying on a smart polo horse while looking at the magnificent ocean of the North Shore.
Haleiwa is larger than I expected, so it might be a good idea to decide in advance where to go.
