Hawaii
Went with a few friends & we had a good time! The music was great, crew was friendly & helpful, & we enjoyed the floating lounge. I wish inner tubes would have been provided to float in the water, but not a huge deal. Overall, would recommend!

This is our second time going to the Fern Grotto and it was just as beautiful and amazing as the first time we went 9 years ago. We booked online and it was very easy. We got to the check in site and they handed us a ticket with our name already on it and asked us to turn it in when we boarded. Right on time, they asked us to head down to the dock and board our river boat. Everyone that we encountered had a big smile and a kind word for us. They gave us a brief safety talk and we were off! Our guide going out there was very knowledgeable and talked to us about the history of the island. When we reached the Fern Grotto, they sang for us some beautiful songs and then we hiked a little way up to the grotto. We took lots of pictures and then made our way back! We were treated to some songs and beautiful hula dancing on the way back. The young lady on the microphone was so much fun! She was a jokester, and she had a beautiful singing voice. The ladies doing the hula dancing were just so beautiful to watch and you can tell they love what they do. Overall, it was a lot of fun and I highly recommend. I do recommend booking online as it will save you some time when you get there. Thank you for a wonderful experience!
This was my first time to Hawaii and I took my son and out of all of our excursions this was by far the best one hands-down! Each and everyone of the crew members were so friendly and helpful and made you feel as if you were at home on their tour boat and the music was a great touch. We have never snorkeled or used a paddle board before and this adventure allowed the most beautiful perfect safe spot for our first time. I have never been in water that beautiful and if you were nervous at all some of the crew even stays in the water with you in all the areas at all times. Just book this tour you will not regret it! Thank you for providing my son and I priceless memories that we will cherish forever.

The afternoon on the Kaneohe Sandbar was amazing!! There were so many choices of things to do : kayaking, paddle boarding, snorkeling, sunning on the floating deck, or playing volleyball. The reef was filled with beautiful fish and the sand underfoot was smooth and soft. The crew was organized and efficient with each member per for their job effectively. But the icing on the cake was the live entertainment from two very talented musicians who played and sang as we rode out and back to the sandbar. It’s an adventure that I will book again when I return to the island!
Mahalo for your review and the beautiful picture! - Team KBOS
Beautiful venue, dancing, music, and storytelling. All the performers were very talented. We enjoyed the show - it was a great way to spend our last evening in Kauai.
Awesome crew! This was an amazing and fun experience for my family.
Aloha Missy! Mahalo for taking the time to write us a review and give us a 5 star rating. We truly appreciate it. Surfing on the outrigger canoe is truly an amazing experience for all to know the feeling of riding a wave, no matter your skill level in the surf. We hope to have you back again soon.
My husband and I had a wonderful time on this excursion! The pilot was very friendly and told us all about what we were looking at. The ride was smooth and the views were unreal!
First, I was dropped off at the parking lot by the shuttle car, and for the return, I was just told to take that bus back. I had to handle the tickets for the show and meal myself. The ticket fee for the park tour ($89 per person) was not included. The women in their 60s to 80s who were with me had nothing to do and waited around the souvenir shop for about two hours, had a meal, watched the show, and then went home. (It was sad.) I don't think I'll ask for this again next time!
まず、送迎の車で駐車場で降ろされ、帰りはあのバス乗って帰れってだけで、自分でショー&食事のチッケットを行わなければいけなかった。
パーク内見学のチッケット代(一人89ドル)は含まれていなっかった。
同乗せれてた60~80代の女性達は何もすることなく土産屋付近で2時間程待って食事をし、ショーを見て帰られた。(かわいそうだった)
次回はお願いしないかな!
Thank you for your patronage.
However, we apologize for not meeting your expectations.
Please note that park admission is not included in the plan you reserved. As stated on the tour page, the price for the buffet dinner & evening show plan includes only the "dinner buffet/show."
Furthermore, we confirmed with the local operating company that you arrived at the park around 3:50 PM, and the driver assisted with check-in and guided you to the dinner venue. The dinner starts at 4:30 PM, so if you arrive at the restaurant when it opens, you would have about 30 minutes of free time. For those who did not make a dinner reservation, there is free time until the night show starts at 7:30 PM, during which you can visit the Fukirow Market Place or take the Temple Shuttle.
Thank you for your understanding.

ご利用ありがとうございます。
しかしながらご期待に沿えず申し訳ございません。
パークへの入場につきましては、ご予約いただいたプランには含まれておりませんことご了承ください。
ツアーページ上にも記載させていただいております通り、ビュッフェディナー & イブニングショープランの料金には「夕食ビュッフェ / ショー」のみ含まれております。
なお、当日の状況を現地催行会社に確認させていただきましたところ、15時50分ごろパークに到着をして、ドライバーがチェックインをサポートをしディナー会場にご案内させていただいたとのことです。
ディナーは16時半スタートとなりますので、オープンの際にレストランにお越しいただければフリータイムは30分ほどだったかと存じます。
ディナーのご予約をされていない方は、19時30分スタートのナイトショーまでフリータイムとなっておりますので、フキラウ・マーケット・プレースに行かれたり、テンプルシャトルにご乗車いただいたりしてお過ごしいただいております。
何卒よろしくお願いします。

John is excellent driver as tourist guide.
The trip was smooth and exciting. I will come back to travel again. Chuc Le .
Hello Chuc,
Thank you so much for your review. We are glad you had a great time with John. He really knows what he is doing. We are glad you were able to see all the sights and sounds of Hawaii. If you have the chance to come back to Hawaii, please do.

EVERYTHING WAS PERFECT!
Great weather, Hawaii vibes, crew/staff was friendly, helpful, funny, and made us feel right a home.
Great experience for families. The water is not too deep for children. Maybe, above the knee.
Mahalo for your review! - Team KBOS
It was a great time the entertainment and food excellent
Highly recommended, we really enjoyed the river cruise the view was beautiful and loved the walk to the cave
It is a memorable day for us, we went to Arizona memorial, bowfin submarine in the morning, we had lunch at the hangers, then visited the battleship. We don’t need to worry about the tickets, shuttle and lunch, all have been arranged well, we have enough time to visit everywhere we like, I highly recommend the trip.
I went parasailing for the first time.
The view of Hawaii was absolutely amazing!!
If you are prone to motion sickness, taking anti-nausea medication is a must!
初めてパラセーリングをしました。
ハワイの景色を一望できてとても最高でした!!
乗り物酔いするかたは酔い止め薬必須です!
First of all, we passed Hanauma Bay and stopped at the Lanai Lookout, which was an unexpected bonus that I wouldn't have ever seen, being on a work trip with a very brief window to go out on a Sunday. I'm very grateful to him for a joyful trip, the extra stop (thank you!!!!!), and the information he shared en route to Hanauma Bay, about where different creatures may be seen, areas of the bay, types of fish, and even local characters (yes, fish). One of the fish characters (I think a Humuhumu? but I could be wrong) was described as a chihuahua who will pester you if you cross paths, LOL! The bay is simply some of the most beautiful water and fish I've ever snorkeled in the company of. Just incredible. 11/10. Thank you for an amazing experience.
We did the clear bottom kayak and snorkeling.
The weather on the north shore can be a little unpredictable, so keep that in mind. Steve gave us a quick lesson and we were on our way.
My wife and I had a great time, and would recommend this to anyone looking to get in the water and see some sea turtles!
I was picked up on time and went from the Dole Plantation to the town of Haleiwa. After getting a brief explanation of the town, we split into groups, and I joined the beach horseback riding plan. Although the explanation was in English, the guide was very helpful, so there were no issues. The horseback riding lasted well over 70 minutes, and the beauty of the coastline was beyond words. On the way back to Haleiwa, we ordered lunch, the garlic shrimp combo, by phone to reduce wait time. I was also able to do some shopping at Patagonia!
時間どおりにお迎えに来てもらってドールプランテーションからハレイワの町へ
ひととおり町を説明してもらった後 散策組と分かれて海辺乗馬プランに。
英語の説明だけどガイドさんがちゃんと教えてくれて問題無し。
70分をゆうに上回る乗馬 海岸の綺麗さは言うまでも有りません。
終わってハレイワに戻る間にランチ ガーリックシュリンプコンボを電話注文してくれて待ち時間短縮。
patagoniaでお買い物も出来ました!
Thank you for your kind review. I'm glad to hear that you were satisfied.
ご丁寧なレビューありがとうございます。お客様に満足して頂けてよかったです。
We had the best time with the Wahine Charters crew. They were very kind and welcoming! 10/10 recommend!
The Napali coast boat tour was definitely worth our time and money. The 5-hour or so tour was filled with constant activities, with experienced captain and the crew. The 20-or-so person boat was comfortable with the front-facing seats and a clean bathroom. It was also newly cleaned and painted. The captain also maneuvered through the caves and shore with experience, providing good opportunities for the pictures. The tour also provided an ample time for a snorkeling towards the end. It was definitely something we would recommend.
The helicopter flight was great - one of the best so far.
The staff was professional, and the facilities were new and clean. They gave us the phone harness and the wind breaker (which was essential).
The pilot - Steve - was experienced and guided through the entire flight giving us confidence.
The fly around the volcano was the most amazing of all.
The doors-off does present windy conditions on top of already windy (in addition to the lift from blades). So if you are on the edge seats, be ready to enjoy the ride with strong winds hitting your body and the face.
Since I didn't check the tide, the water was about waist-deep. I recommend that those who go check the tide schedule, including high and low tides. I have no regrets as my goal was to enter the sea.
満ち引きを見てなかった為、腰くらいまで水がありました。行かれる人は潮の満ち引き、大潮小潮などを調べての参加をお勧めいたします。
自分は海に入る事が目的だった為、後悔はありません。
The tides and ocean conditions vary daily and are natural phenomena that we cannot control. However, we hope you can enjoy the beauty of Hawaii's nature, which is included in our tours. Thank you for participating in the tour and for your review. From all of us at KBOS.
潮の満ち引きや海の状況は日々異なり自然のものですのでコントロール出来ませんが、その様なハワイの自然も含め楽しんで頂ければと思い弊社では日々ツアーを催行しています。この度はツアーご参加、レビューありがとうございました。 KBOS スタッフ一同
I and one of my sons were not able to go due to illness but my other kids went and loved the experience - they can't wait to do this again. They are very academically inclined and found him to be incredibly knowledgable and engaging. They could not stop talking about how much fun and informative the trip was. He also provided them with blankets, jackets, tea and coffee. He took beautiful pictures and showed them how to take photos as well.
The crew were both helpful and entertaining. Would definitely go out on this trip again.
Such a fun and exciting experience. All the staff and crew were awesome and did an amazing job making sure we were enjoying ourselves.Totally enjoyed the music the band was playing and all the water activities. Altogether the experience with my family was such a great memory builder. Highly recommend this tour.

The kayak/hiking/waterfall tour was beautiful. Exactly what we were looking for. Tour guide Harrison was fantastic, very knowledgeable about the local flora/fauna, history. Harrison was cool with letting our 10 year old daughter double kayak with him (she didn’t want to ride with mom and dad!). Lunch sandwiches were very yummy. Tour guide even provided a chilled pineapple after the tour. Harrison made sure we all had transportation after the tour and actually went out of his way to drop us off at the beach across the highway in his own personal vehicle. 100% recommend and would use again!! Also-prepare to get muddy LOL
Aloha Wilson O'hana,
Harrison does it again, i.e. provides a classic effort, as he does on all his tours.
We are the only tour company on the Wailua that provides pretty good lunches; my favorite is the veggie.
Will share your kind words with Harrison…slowly; don't want it to go to his head.
Thanks for sharing and warning folks about the mud.
A hui hou,
Micco
This was my third trip to Hawaii, and I finally got to experience horseback riding, which I had been looking forward to. During the transfer, the driver shared various interesting information while driving, and I enjoyed listening while taking in the scenery. I was quite anxious about whether I would be okay with horseback riding and the horses, but they were very well-behaved. At first, I didn't have the luxury to enjoy the views, but once I got used to it, I was able to see the beautiful ocean and take videos. It was an option that left me very satisfied. I definitely want everyone to experience this!
ハワイ旅行3回目にしてやっと念願の乗馬体験ができました。
送迎中も色々な情報を運転しながら話してくださったりしてとても興味深く景色を見ながら聞いていました。
乗馬もお馬さんも大丈夫なのかとても不安でしたが、とてもお利口さんでした。
景色も始めは見る余裕もありませんでしたが、慣れてきたら綺麗な海をみたり、動画を撮ったり 大満足のオプションでした。
是非皆さんに体験してほしいです。
Thank you for your thoughtful review. We're glad to hear that you were satisfied.
ご丁寧なレビューありがとうございます。お客様が満足して頂けて良かったです。
My first parasailing experience. I was nervous, but once I was up, the view was breathtaking. It was over in no time. If you get seasick, you should be careful.
初めてのパラセイリング。ドキドキだったけど、上がってしまえばもう絶景。あっという間でした。船酔いする人は気をつけた方がいいです。
Had a great time with the Family and the KNSOP Ohana, definitely going to do it next time around.

It was a fun tour to ride horses for two hours and walk through the magnificent nature of Kualoa. The shuttle bus to Kualoa Ranch was clean, making the journey very comfortable. If I had to mention something, the café was crowded that day, and while waiting in line for lunch, I almost ran out of time, so I thought it would have been better to bring a snack. If you're concerned about sunburn, it might be good to have a cover-up. Also, if the helmet strap smells, I think it's better to find a way to adjust how you wear it.
2時間馬に乗ってクアロアの壮大な自然を散歩する楽しいツアーでした。
クアロアランチまでの送迎のバスが綺麗だったので、移動はとても快適でした。
強いて言えば、この日はカフェが混んでいて行列に並んでランチを食べていたら時間がギリギリになってしまったので、軽食を持参すれば良かったと思いました。
日焼けが気になる方は羽織があると良いかもしれません。ヘルメットのベルトが臭い場合があるので、付け方を工夫した方が良いと思います。
There were Japanese staff members, and I was able to hear the explanations in Japanese beforehand, which made me feel at ease throughout the experience. The sea was beautiful, just like in the photos. I would love to participate again if I have the chance!
クルーには日本人の方もいて、事前の説明等日本語で聞くことができ終始安心感がありました。
海も写真の通り綺麗でした。
また機会が有れば参加したいです!
Thank you very much for participating in the Captain Bruce's Paradise of the Sea tour. We also appreciate you sharing the beautiful photos of the stunning Paradise of the Sea. We look forward to your participation in our tours when you visit Hawaii again. Mahalo!
この度はキャプテンブルース天国の海ツアーにご参加いただき誠にありがとうございました。絶景の天国の海のお写真も共有いただきありがとうございます。
