Hawaii
this was really fun with a lot of photo ops during, we loved this day to explore the gorgeous valley of Kualoa!
We loved the day, however we would consider bumping up to a private tour guide next time
Totally agreed, the guides really enhance the visit. Thank you for your feedback!
Quick easy pick up and drop off, the tour guide does not go in the park with you however!
Lots of new things learned at my stop to the Pearl Harbor grounds! The tour guide as well detailed a lot of useful information to and from the grounds
Great thing to do with a bigger family, kept all the kids together and busy all on 1 boat!
Stay at King Kam so this evening was an easy evening on grounds. Show was really great, food was good too
great evening swimming with these giant gorgeous creatures, we got lucky with the abundance who came around to play!
Aloha Kara! Thank you so much for joining our Manta snorkel tour! We are happy to hear that you had a great time swimming with the manta rays. We hope to see you again soon. Mahalo
quick day on the water, nice as it does not take up your full day, but gives you a good safe way to snorkel for a few hours!
We got to see so many fabulous Hana waterfalls from above, so gorgeously large and breathtaking! Lunch was an extreme bonus to this already amazing day
Gorgeous day on the water, I liked how this one goes all the way over to Lanai versus Molokini area!
We had the most AMAZING time ziplining!! It was a little rainy/misty but that didn't take away from the experience at all! The crew was informative, funny and put our safety as their number one priority.
It was very early and quite cold, but it was beautiful and a great experience! I was very satisfied with the free canoeing and SUP, and the live performances of Aloha and The Beatles on the boat!
朝早くてとても寒かったですが、とても綺麗でいい経験ができました!
カヌーやSUPも無料ででき、船の上では生演奏のアロハやビートルズが聞けて大変満足しました!
Thank you very much for participating in the tour. It seems that it was quite cold on the day, but we are very pleased to hear that you were satisfied. Thank you for sharing the wonderful photos as well. From all of us at KBOS.
ツアーにご参加いただき誠にありがとうございました。当日は寒かったようですが、ご満足して頂けたとの事で大変嬉しく思っております。素敵なお写真も共有頂きありがとうございます。 KBOS スタッフ一同
The buggy experience itself was amazing! However, I got caught in a sudden downpour and ended up soaking wet (laughs). They sell ponchos at the shop, but they're really basic, so I strongly recommend bringing your own poncho from Japan if you're planning to participate. You never know when or where a downpour might happen. Also, you will get really dirty, so I highly recommend wearing dark-colored clothes.
バギー体験自体は最高!ただ、突然のスコールにみまわれたため、びしょ濡れ(笑)ポンチョが売店に売ってるけど、本当に簡易的なので、参加予定の人は日本のポンチョの持参を強くおすすめします。スコールはいつどこで起こるか本当に解らないので。また、めちゃめちゃ汚れます。そのため、黒ベースの服を着ていくことを強くお勧めします。
We had a great time. Although we couldn't speak any English at all, we were able to communicate without any problems thanks to body language and the clear, slow words used! We definitely want to go again next time.
とっても楽しかったです。
英語は全く喋れない私達でしたが、ボディーランゲージとゆっくり単語をわかりやすく言ってくれて問題なくできました‼️
次もまた絶対行きたいです
Since I was in Hawaii, I wanted to see a show at least once, and I was torn between the Chief's Luau, the Polynesian Show, and Rock-A-Hula. The deciding factor was the location. I stayed at Waikiki Grove, which was about a 10-minute walk away, making access excellent.
The backstage tour was guided by an actual stage manager, who made it entertaining. Since the tour is conducted in English, I thought it would be more enjoyable if you have some understanding of the show's overview (the English was quite simple, so I think you can grasp it to some extent).
The tour includes a commemorative photo with a star, but the photo is taken in the star's green room during the backstage tour, and there wasn't a special time set aside for photos with the stars. However, you do receive a proper commemorative photo! Of course, after the show, you can line up like the other participants to take pictures as well!
The show venue is air-conditioned and can get quite cold, so please be sure to bring a cardigan.
せっかくのハワイなので一回はショーを見たいと思い、コーブルルアウかポリネシアンショーか、ロックアフラかで迷っていました。
決め手は立地です。ワイキキグローブに泊まりましたが徒歩10分ほど、アクセスが抜群によかったです。
バックヤードツアーは実際の舞台マネージャーが面白く案内してくれました。英語での案内になるので、ある程度ショーの概要はわかっている方が楽しめるかなと思いました(かなり易しい英語でしたのでなんとなくは理解できると思います)
スターとの記念写真が含まれてますが、
バックヤードツアーで訪れるスターの控え室(グリーンルーム)での写真で、スターとの写真は特に特別時間が設けられてるわけではなかったです。記念写真はちゃんとしたものが頂けました!もちろんショー終了後、他の参加者と同様列にならんで写真はとれましたよ!
ショー会場内は冷房がきいて寒いのでカーディガンはぜひお持ちください
Thank you very much for visiting the Rockaflor Green Room Waikiki Luau Buffet & Show. We are delighted to hear that you enjoyed the interactive hula dancing during the meal, as well as the performances featuring Elvis, Michael, and the Hawaiian show. We sincerely look forward to welcoming you back when you visit Hawaii again.
この度はロッカフラ グリーンルームワイキキルアウブッフェ&ショーにご来場頂きまして、誠に有難うございます。お食事の際での参加型フラダンスも気に入っていただき、エルビスやマイケルそして、ハワイアンショーなど楽しめて頂けたご様子で、私共も大変嬉しく思っております。またハワイにお越しの際には、ご来場頂けますよう、スタッフ一同心よりお待ち申し上げます。
It was a light rainy day, but we had a great time! We enjoyed driving while taking in the surrounding scenery and animals, and we were able to stop at various points to take memorable photos. You can drive with a valid driver's license, and up to two people can drive, but the roads are quite steep and you go at a considerable speed, so I think it's not suitable for inexperienced drivers. Your face and clothes will get muddy, so wearing a mask and clothes you don't mind getting dirty is a good idea!
当日小雨日和でしたが充分楽しめました!
周辺の風景や動物たちを観ながらの走行や要所要所で止まって記念撮影などあとになって思い出に残る写真もたくさん撮れました!運転は免許証持ってれば二人まで運転できますが、険しい道を体感的には結構な速度で走り抜くので、ペーパードライバーは無理だと思います。顔や服は泥まみれになるので、マスクとか汚れてもいい服装が良いかと!
Went for a morning tour with my parents and two of my kids, everyone love it!!!! They give you some bread to feed the fish so that we see a lot of fishes swimming around during snorkeling. They have lots other activities for you to play around, and the most best part is: all the staffs are super nice, and they SING GOOD!!!
Mahalo for your review & kind words for our crew! - Team KBOS
I signed up for a dinner buffet tour, and I was able to enjoy a wide variety of dishes. Although I'm not good at English, there was a person from Norway sitting next to me, and we had a great time until the end of the show using gestures, broken English, and their broken Japanese.
The show featured performances that were incredibly impressive, resembling Elvis Presley and Michael Jackson. The hula show was also captivating, with singing and dancing that were all perfectly executed.
I would love to participate again; it was a wonderful experience with the food and the show.
夕食ビュッフェ付きツアーを申し込みましたが、料理の種類が多く堪能できました。英語が苦手な私ですが隣の席にノルウェーの方がいて身振り、手振りとカタコト英語と相手のカタコトの日本語でショーの終わりまで楽しく過ごすことができました。
ショーもエルビスプレスリー、マイケルジャクソンの物まねとは思えないほどの内容で堪能しました。またフラショーも見ごたえが有り、歌と踊り全てが完成されていて素晴らしかった。
また参加したい、見てみた食事、ショーでした。
Thank you very much for attending the Rockafella VIP Waikiki Luau Buffet & Show. We are very pleased to hear that you enjoyed the Luau Buffet, as well as the performances by Elvis, Michael, and the Hawaiian show. It was also wonderful to hear that you made friends with the guests from Norway sitting next to you. We sincerely look forward to welcoming you back when you visit Hawaii again.
この度はロッカフラVIPワイキキルアウブッフェ&ショーにご来場頂きまして、誠に有難うございます。ルアウブッフェのお食事、エルビスやマイケルそして、ハワイアンショーなど楽しめて頂けたご様子で、私共も大変嬉しく思っております。そして、お隣に座られたノルウェイの方とも仲良くなれて本当に良かったですね。またハワイにお越しの際には、ご来場頂けますよう、スタッフ一同心よりお待ち申し上げます。
We participated as a family of five in a buggy, with my husband driving. Our kids, a 12-year-old boy, a 10-year-old girl, and an 8-year-old girl, were thrilled to see the filming locations from the Jurassic Park series, which they love. We were given helmets and goggles, so our eyes stayed clean, but afterward, our mouths were covered in dirt (laughs). The kids who had McDonald's on their faces managed to avoid getting dirty.
Since there were many Japanese people upon arrival, it was helpful that the Japanese staff handled the check-in for all the Japanese guests in advance. They also provided explanations for all the activities in Japanese. After arriving, we took about 30 minutes to relax before heading to the activity venue. Our activity ended at the same time as the bus departure, so we were in a bit of a rush without changing clothes, but it wasn't a problem since we didn't get too dirty (my husband drove carefully to avoid splashing in puddles). If we had been dirtier, we might have hesitated to get on the bus.
Our activity started at 10:45 and ended at 12:45, and we left without buying souvenirs or exploring. The bus departure time will be communicated on-site. Since we didn't plan to buy souvenirs and only intended to participate in the experience, it worked out well. However, for those who want to take their time exploring or buying souvenirs, I recommend arriving earlier than 10:45 or considering an afternoon visit.
一台のバギーに家族5人で乗り、主人が運転で参加しました。(子供は12男児、10女児、8女児)ジュラッシックパークシリーズの映画が大好きな子供達は、各ロケ地を見て喜んでいました。ヘルメットとゴーグルを渡されるので、目の周りは汚れませんが、終わった後、口周りが真っ黒になってました(笑)砂が口に入るので、マックをつけた子供は汚れを回避できていました。スケジュールでは、到着時日本人が多いので、まとめて日本人のスタッフさんが受付等を日本人客みんなの分を前もってしてくれていたので助かりました。また各アクティビティ場所も全て日本語で説明してくれました。到着後は30分ほどゆっくりしてアクティビティの会場に行きました。私達は、アクティビティ終了時間と帰りのバス集合時間が同じだったので、帰りは着替えもせずバタバタでしたが、そこまで汚れなかったので問題なかったです。(水たまりなどを、跳ねないように主人に運転してもらいました)汚れた状態だったら、バスに乗るのは躊躇するかもです。私達のアクティビティ開始時間は10時45で、12時45分終了でした、お土産等も買わず散策もせずに帰りました。帰りのバス集合時間は現地で教えられます。特にお土産購入予定も無く、体験のみでの参加しか考えてなかったので良かったのですが、ゆっくりと散策したい人やお土産を買いたい人は10時45分ではなく時間を早めるか、または午後からなどをお勧めします。
Yoshi gave an excellent stargazing tour and kept us entertained, warm, and fed on the way up and down the mountain! His insider knowledge was amazing, and so were the stars.
It was a very good tour that allowed us to efficiently visit all the places we wanted to see on Kauai Island. I felt that the driver and guide's hospitality and skills were very high. They spoke to us casually in Japanese as well. Although I couldn't understand everything in English, I still had a great time on the bus.
The river cruise was also very nice, as we got to listen to live music.
Lunch was included, and we also stopped by Kauai Coffee, making it a fulfilling day.
カウアイ島の行きたかった場所を効率よく回れて、とても良いツアーでした。
ドライバー兼ガイドさんのおもてなし、技術がとても高いと感じました。
日本語でも気さくに話しかけてくださいました。
英語なのですべて理解はできませんでしたが、バス内でもとてと楽しませていただきました。
リバークルーズも、生演奏が聴けてとてもよかったです。
ランチも付いていて、カウアイコーヒーにも立ち寄れたので充実した一日でした。
We participated as a family. There were no Japanese people, and everything was in English. I stumbled a bit there. They were asking various questions to the customers, like "Has anyone done snorkeling before?" but I couldn't quite understand. In the end, another customer helped me with putting on the wetsuit (in English). Still, there were many Japanese families. When we got off the boat into the sea, there was a boy who panicked because he couldn't touch the bottom (of course, he was wearing a life jacket). The crew was throwing floatation devices from the boat and telling him to use them, but it didn't get through. When I asked in Japanese, "Do you want to use it?" he nodded and seemed to calm down. I think it's fine if you have no problem with everything being in English, but sometimes there are troubles...
Then there was seasickness! A few people were really groggy... some were lying down clutching bags, and a group of girls who were so excited at first looked completely exhausted. It was sad to see. My child is also prone to motion sickness, so I gave them anti-nausea candy twice, once before leaving Waikiki and once when boarding the boat, which helped. Anti-nausea measures are essential! Also, bring a towel. It gets cold when you come out of the sea! The wind was strong (while the boat was moving), and the wet body lost heat.
Finally, the kids were thrilled to get tattoo stickers, saying it felt "local"!
I saw a comment saying "no cash needed," so I didn't bring any, but I wish I had. It's a shame I couldn't give a tip to Tittha, who took great care of us. Thank you, Tittha!!
親子で参加。
日本人はおらず、全て英語で。
そこでちょっとつまずきました。
「スノーケリングやったことある人?」とか、色々お客さんに聞いてるんですが、
イマイチ理解出来ない。
ウェットスーツの着方も、結局他のお客さん(英語で)が手伝ってくれました。
それでも日本人のご家族も多くて。
ボートから海へ降りた時、足がつかないことにパニックになっている男の子がいたんですが(もちろんライフベストは着用していました)
ボートからクルーが浮き具を投げて何度も使ってと言っていたんですが、通じず。
私が日本語で「使う?」と声かけたら頷いて落ち着くことが出来たようです。
全て英語でも問題なければ、良いと思いますが、
時々トラブルが…。
あとは船酔い!
何人か…それはそれはもうグロッキーになって…袋を握りしめて横になっていたり、最初はあんなにはしゃいでたのにという女の子組もグッタリしていたり…。
見てて可哀想でした。
我が子も酔いやすいので、ワイキキ出発時と、船乗船時の2回、酔い止めキャンディを服用させて、難なきを得ました。
酔い止め対策必須ですね!
あとはタオル。海から上がると寒いです!
風も強いので(ボートで走ってる最中は)、濡れた体が体温を奪いました。
最後にタトゥーシールを貼って貰えたのが子供は「ロコっぽい」と大喜び!
どなたかのコメントで「現金はいらない」と書かれてあったので持って行かなかったのですが、
持って行けば良かったです。
私達親子のお世話をよくしてくれたTitthaにチップを渡せなかったのが残念です。
Thank you Tittha!!
The parasailing I participated in previously in Hawaii took a long time as we had to take a taxi to a distant marina, board a boat, wait on a float, and then switch to the parasailing boat. However, here you can walk to the marina next to the Hilton and board the boat from there, which saves time. The staff was friendly. The wind was strong, the boat was very rocky, and there was some thrilling swaying during the parasailing. I think it's better to take motion sickness medication.
以前ハワイで参加したパラセイリングはタクシーで遠くのマリーナまで行って、そこでボートに乗り、その先でまたフロートで待たされ、パラセイリング用のボートに乗り換えて…と時間がかかりましたが、ここはヒルトンの横のマリーナまで歩いて行けばそこからボートに乗るので無駄なく時間使えます。
親切なスタッフでした。
風が強く、ボートはとても揺れるし、パラセイリング中も風で横揺れしてスリルはありました。
酔い止め飲んだほうが良いと思います
Outstanding! A great crew, wonderful vibe and energy. We loved seeing the fireworks from the Catamaran. Would highly recommend!
You can take a two-hour tour around Kualoa Ranch in a five-seater vehicle called the Raptor. At each stop, you can switch drivers. Driving for two hours is quite hard, so it was a good decision to switch. The magnificent scenery is wonderful, and I want the driver to enjoy it too. There’s plenty of time to fully enjoy the experience. Your upper body will get quite dirty, so it's best to wear a dark-colored T-shirt or something that you don’t mind getting dirty. It’s also good to have a change of clothes and a towel to wash your face. You can have lunch at the ranch, and the burgers are delicious. I had a fulfilling day and am really satisfied!
ラプターという5人乗りの自動車でクアロアランチ内をぐるりと2時間かけて周ります。それぞれポイントで止まる度に運転手は交替できます。2時間の運転はまぁまぁハードなので交替して正解でした。壮大な景色が素晴らしいので、運転手も見て欲しい。時間がたっぷりあって、まだある!?というほど堪能できます。靴より上半身が真っ黒になるので、Tシャツなどは色が暗いもの、汚れてもいいものがベストです。着替えや顔を洗うタオルもあるといいです。ランチ内で昼ごはんも食べられてバーガーなど美味しいです。充実した1日が過ごせて本当に満足です!
I participated with middle and high school children. They were thrilled and said it was the most exciting experience they’ve ever had. We were able to overlook the views of Waikiki, and it became a very good experience. I’m grateful for the photos we were able to take as well.
中高生の子どもたちと参加しました。今までで一番スリルがあったと大喜びでした。ワイキキの景色も見渡せて、とてもいい経験になりました。写真も撮ってもらえてありがたいです。
My friends and i had a great time. staff was nice.
From beginning to end the crew made everything easy, relaxing, fun and super special!!!! They were excellent with giving instructions and support to make us feel confident and comfortable in the water. The special attention to my 8yo daughter was above and beyond! We saw lots of turtles and beautiful fish. Kainoa even took my daughter around on the surf board and back to the boat when she needed a break so I could keep swimming! I highly recommend this to anyone and everyone! We want to do it again!!!!
Our guide lived here and shared some stories and was extremely knowledgeable. We encountered wild horses. Before entering, pray and be respectful. Thank you for showing us this beautiful sacred land
It can get very chilly.. be careful with the splash zone as well! Overall, the view was fantastic! We saw a full rainbow and everyone was all vibing together, enjoying the scenery. All of the members were very helpful and entertaining, they made sure everyone was having a great time. Drinks were pretty good, definitely hold onto your drinks, this booze cruise can get rocky!
