Hawaii
I wish that the tour gave a bit more time as I felt a bit rushed at the top of Diamondhead. As well note that Diamondheads trail is pretty unpaved and rocky.
Our driver was amazing. So kind and friendly. The hike was beautiful. Definitely worth doing if you are in the area. I would do it again.
The cheerful driver provides sightseeing explanations in English at key points. If you want to see the city, take the Red Line. For local dining, use the Green Line, and for views of Diamond Head's crater and the East Coast, take the Blue Line. It's a bit pricey, but it's an efficient way to tour, and it's safe, so I'm glad I took it every day. I definitely got my money's worth! By the way, during the first week of my stay, I used the trolley, and in the second week, I used the local bus. The trolley is a relaxed way to travel and is definitely fun!
陽気なドライバーさんが要所要所で英語で観光説明してくれます。街を見るならレッドライン。ローカルダイニングに行くならグリーンライン、ダイアモンドヘッドのクレーターや東海岸の景色
ならブルーライン。少しお値段は高いけど、効率良く観光できて、治安も安全なので、毎日これに乗って良かった。しっかりと元を取れましたよ!
ちなみに、滞在1週間目はトローリー、2週間目は地元のthe busを利用しました。トローリーは、気楽に旅できて、断然、楽しいです♪
Early, however really great. it is timed to just be aware when your going up.
Malasadas are an awesome end!
I took the full course for four days. The driver was kind and cheerful, making for a very enjoyable sightseeing experience in Hawaii.
四日間全コース乗りました。
ドライバーさんも親切で陽気でとても楽しいハワイ観光をする事が出来ました。
The hikes were beautiful and it was wonderful to have the transportation and tickets taken care of. The shuttle picked us up and dropped us off right next to our hotel. We got to meet some great people and have some laughs. We highly recommend this company.
We were picked up promptly and driver very informative. Dropped off on time to do our event. Upon completion driver there with our fresh malasadas. Then took us and got us seated for our açaí bowls. Came back, on schedule, an hour later and then dropped us back off at our hotel. All so perfectly done and what a pleasant driver.
Excellent hotel to crater service. Adam was courteous and knowledgeable.
It was a fun experience, our tour guide Stephanie was informative, kind, funny and patient. The sights she took us to see were breathtaking. The sunrise at Diamond head was amazing!
Hello Arlene,
We are glad you had a good time with Stephanie. She really knows a lot about the Island and is always friendly. We enjoy having her around. But thank you so much for writing a review for us. It really helps us out. Thank you also for booking with us and hope you had a wonderful vacation in Hawaii.

John was a nice man and a good driver. We tried to encourage conversation with information about our tour but it didn’t help. A gentleman on the bus gave more information because he had taken a similar tour in June. John did not put his headset on only lifted it occasionally to talk. Like I said a nice man but the tour was long, quiet and boring. Thankfully the other passengers were friendly. Thank you
Hello Paula,
Thank you for your review. We wish you could have a more enjoyable time with John on our tour. We will work with John to make our tour a bit more interesting but agree with you that he is a nice guy. But thank you for your honest comments which will make us better in the future. We hope you had an enjoyable time in Hawaii.

It was my first Segway experience since 2019, and I had a great time with my son, who was visiting Hawaii for the first time, and my family of three. It felt very refreshing to be back in Hawaii, Waikiki, and Kaka'ako after a long time. I am planning to visit Hawaii again this year.
2019年以来のセグウェイ体験でした、ハワイが初めての息子と家族3人で大変楽しかったです。
久しぶりのハワイ・ワイキキ・カカアコはとても新鮮な感じがしましたよ~
今年もハワイを計画致します。
The coupon pickup location is at the ticket booth for the trolley station on the north side of T Galleria Hawaii by DFS, but in reality, there was a cart on the sidewalk on the Royal Hawaiian Avenue side of the Waikiki Shopping Plaza.
クーポンの受取場所がTギャラリアハワイ by DFS北側トロリー乗り場チケットブースとなっていますが、実際にはワイキキ ショッピング プラザのロイヤルハワイアンアベニュー側の歩道にカートがありました。
Last time (December 2019), there were 10 routes, making it difficult to choose, but due to the ongoing impact of COVID-19, there were only 4 routes available this time. However, it was exactly the route I wanted to see, so it was very helpful. I think the driver did a great job providing a lot of information in English. (I didn't understand the meaning very well, though...)
前回(2019年12月)は10路線もあり選ぶのが大変でしたが、まだコロナの影響で4路線しか有りませんでした。ですが、丁度見に行きたい所の路線でしたのでとっても助かりました。運転手さんが英語で沢山案内してくれてとても良かったと思っています。(英語の意味は良く分からなかったですが・・・)
Both of these hikes were gorgeous, and very different terrains. However I am sure tired after two hikes in 1 day!
At first, I was worried about whether I could ride it, but once I tried, it was surprisingly easy. Riding the Segway while feeling the Hawaiian breeze was very pleasant. The instructor informed us about the areas to be cautious of during the ride, which allowed me to enjoy the experience with peace of mind. The instructor was very fun and provided clear guidance, and I was able to learn a lot about the finer details of Hawaii. They also took photos for us, which became wonderful memories. I want to ride a Segway again when I go back to Hawaii!
最初は乗れるか心配でしたが、乗ってみると意外と簡単でした。
ハワイの風を感じながら乗るセグウェイはとても気持ちよかったです。
乗っている最中に注意する場所を教えてくれたので、安心して体験することが出来ました。
インストラクターの方がとても楽しい方で
案内も分かりやすく、ハワイの細かい部分まで知ることができて良かったです。
写真も撮っていただいて本当に良い思い出になりました。
またハワイに行ったらセグウェイに乗りたいです!
Our tour guide was very accomodating and had lots of helpful hints.
Have breakfast before starting, because the Diamond Head hike isn't a leisurely stroll in the park... you're going uphill a long way and it'll make you sweat!
Bringing a flashlight would be a good idea, because the majority of the hike is on an unpaved and and sometimes uneven path. Which can be a problem for a pre-dawn hike.
We didn't exactly get to see the sun rise per se. We arrived at the top in plenty of time, there were some clouds on the horizon.
Go inside the bunker, all the way to the back, to access the spiral interior staircase to complete the pathway loop. Seems like a lot of people aren't aware that they need to go into the bunker to do that.
I'd recommend having at least $30 per person in cold hard cash on hand, to pay for lunch etc.
If you don't wear sneakers, you could have a little trouble walking over seaside areas with sharp lava rock...
Hello J.L,
Thank you so much for your review. We are glad you had a had a good time with John. The weather in December is really like our rainy season so it has been very cloudy recently in the early mornings. Sneakers are definitely recommended especially for the hiking part. But we are glad you had a good time on the tour and we hope you enjoyed your entire stay in Hawaii.

After a few minutes of practice in the parking lot, we headed out onto the public road. Riding a Segway around the Ala Moana area while feeling the breeze was so much fun! I was also happy that the instructor took lots of photos at the landmarks! It was so great that I want to repeat it with a different tour plan next time!
駐車場で数分程の練習のあと、いざ公道へ
アラモアナ周辺をセグウェイに乗り、風を感じながら周れて楽しかったです!
また、インストラクターさんが名所でたくさん写真をとってくれたりしたのが嬉しかったです!
次は別の周遊プランでリピートしたいほど最高でした!
The whole thing was wonderful. They were very well organized. Time was perfect. The place & the hiking trail was smooth & everybody was behaving as a family member or friend so I didn’t feel alone at all. The team was very cooperative & friendly & kind.
Great experience! We also used the shuttle service and we’re able to look and enjoy the scenic drive while the driver told us about the areas we passed.
I participated in a tour of Magic Island, Ala Moana Regional Park, and Kaka'ako Waterfront Park. This was my second time on a Segway, and although my parents are nearly 70 and had some concerns, the instructor provided excellent support, allowing us to enjoy the experience with peace of mind. The 2-hour tour was so much fun that it flew by. Next time, I would like to join a tour in a different area.
】マジックアイランド・アラモアナ市立公園・カカアコウォーターフロントパークを巡るツアーは参加しました。
セグウェイは2回目ですが両親は70近いこともあって不安もありましたがインストラクターさんがしっかりサポートしてくださったおかげで安心して楽しむことができました。
2時間のツアーでしたが楽しくてあっという間でした。
次回は違う地区を巡るツアーに参加したいと思っています。
There are four color-coded routes, with the pink route primarily providing hotel transfers to Ala Moana Shopping Center. This time, I used the red route for downtown and the green route for Diamond Head and a local snack restaurant. The driver provided very polite travel guidance and personalized service. Although it was in English, the Hawaiian accent made it a bit difficult for Japanese speakers to understand. Please note that except for the pink route, the other routes run once an hour, with the last departure from the starting point at 3 PM.
4色のコースがあり,頻繁にあるピンクは主にアラモアナショッピングセンターへのホテル送迎です。
今回レッドでダウンタウンをグリーンでダイアモンドヘッドと地元の軽食レストランを利用しました。ドライバーが大変丁寧な旅行案内と個別の対応をしてくれました。英語ですが,ハワイアンのアクセントがあり,日本人には少し聞き取りにくかったです。
ピンク以外は1時間に1本で午後3時までに最終が出発地点を出ますので,注意してください。
We participated as a family of three, looking for a Segway experience that even our 13-year-old child could enjoy. We toured downtown, Chinatown, Izumo Taisha, and the courthouse, and it was incredibly fun. Our guide, Kenji, provided thorough instructions on how to ride the Segway and offered support, which made us feel safe and allowed us to enjoy ourselves. The staff were all very kind as well.
13歳の子供も体験できるセグウェイを探して親子3人で参加しました。
ダウンタウンやチャイナタウン、出雲大社、裁判所などを巡りましたが最高に楽しかったです。
ガイドのケンジさんが丁寧にセグウェイの乗り方やサポートをしてくれたので安心して楽しむ事ができました。
スタッフの皆さんもとても親切です。
The day was perfect. It was an early start but I honestly couldn’t imagine doing Diamond Head any later. Bring water bottles or you’ll be thirsty! Then we got to stop at the Leonard’s bakery truck which is one of the must haves while you are here!! From there you make 7-8 stops at all the iconic beaches, food stops and more! Our tour guide was amazing. He wasn’t overly talkative which we all appreciated so we could have some conversation but he was super knowledgeable and told us some super awesome things about Hawaii and the local secrets! We decided as a group to skip the last beach because we were all beat from the full day but I would totally recommend anyone looking to see all the things while in Hawaii!!
Hello Jill,
Thank you for your review. We are glad you had a good time with John. Can't beat those malasadas right after the hike. I hope you enjoyed your stay in Hawaii and thank you again for the review.

Our guide, John was awesome! We were picked up early in the morning for the Diamondhead hike. This hike I would consider moderate, and is a spectacular view of the city and naturescape of Waikiki/ Honolulu. We continued on to several stops around the island of Oahu that we otherwise wouldn’t have been able to see as we didn’t rent a car for this trip. This full day adventure allows you to see many sites as well as learn about the region via a knowledgeable guide. Highly recommend!!
Hello Sagers,
Thank you for your review. We are glad you had a good time with John. We are glad he was able to show you all the sights and sounds of Oahu. I hope you enjoyed your stay on the Island and maybe we will see you back here again.

It was so worth it!!! We were glad that we took this tour, we had the chance to see how beautiful the view was from the top of Diamond Head. We sweat a lot but it was a good exercise early in the morning. We had multiple stops and saw a lot of stunning views. Our lunch stop was in an area with multiple food trucks. There’s a lot to choose from but it looks like Giovanni’s shrimp scampi is the most popular. No regret that we go with the hype as their shrimp was so tasty garnished with a good amount of garlic. Need more rice please lol. Stephanie our tour guide/ driver was so nice, she was very patient and seemed to really enjoy what she is doing. There’s so much pride in her when she is showing this area of Hawaii. Thank you Stephanie for your warm service.
Thank for so much for the review. We are glad you had a good time with Stephanie. She really knows what she is doing. Glad you got to try the famous Giovanni's shrimp plate as well. I will let Stephanie know of your comments. Thank you again for the nice comments.

It was just perfect to start our stay in Oahu with a familiarity of the area around our hotel from our guide Stephanie and proceeded to hike in Diamond Head. It was challenging to go up to the top but worth it to see the very nice view during sunrise. We were given enough time on this hike, so no need to rush. Our tour guide/driver Stephanie was very nice and informative. We were just a smaller group of 6, and so the tour became so friendly and personal. We made a lot of stops and took a lot of beautiful pictures.
Hello May,
Thank you for your kind words and review. We are glad you had a good time with Stephanie. She really know what she is doing. We hope you had a great time in Hawaii. Thank you again for the review and please come and visit the Islands again.

At first I was skeptical to book this tour because of the early morning start of the tour (my husband and I are not morning people) but we are so glad we did because it was our favorite activity we did during our trip to Oahu. Jon was the best tour guide and was so knowledgeable! He was very punctual but never rushed on when we would explore a little more. Diamond head was a must! I am not the most athletic right now but I’m so glad I finished it, the views are incredible. The food truck you stop at has one of the most amazing food and the fruit stand has the freshest fruit! All in all, I highly recommend this tour!
Hello Victoria,
Thank you for so much for the review. We are glad you were able to enjoy our tour with Mr. John. Thank you so much for deciding in our tour. I will let Mr John know of your wonderful comments. Please enjoy the rest of your trip in Hawaii!

Had a great day at the hike and the tour of Oahu island was very informative and fun!! Jonah, our tour guide, was very polite and knowledgeable. I would recommend it to anyone who likes to hike and wants to learn about Oahu Island and its most popular sightseeing places. This hike and tour is worth your money. You won’t be disappointed.
Hello Karina,

Stephanie our tour guide was awesome, let me just state the first!
Doing the Diamond Hike that early was great, being one of the first ones on the hike(less people to wade through) and the cooler temperature in the morning allowing the ease of the hike to be a breeze.
Then checking out the eastern part of the island is relaxing when you do not have to drive yourself. Exploration is something that intruiges me, so looking to where i can go and explore on my own; this tour allows just that. This is something to do if you do not what to explore on this side of the island. Allowing you to take another tour, or rent a car and explore yourself. This being the first time for my girlfriend coming to the island and having a delightful and informatitve host to a nice tour.
Hello Paul,
Thank you so much for your review. We are glad you had a great time with Stephanie. With us, we will do all driving and you just sit back and relax. We like to start Diamond Head in the morning so it is not so hot. But thank you again for the review. I will let Stephanie know of your comments.

We had an amazing day. The early hike beat the crowds of the park, and was perfect to catch the sunrise. Our tour guide was very timely, clean, and went above and beyond for our group. Highly recommend this tour!
Hello Jen,
Thank you for writing a review for us. Glad you had a good time with Stephanie yesterday. Diamond Head is always better to climb in the early morning. Also the sunrise yesterday was beautiful as well. Thank you again for writing a review for us and I will let Stephanie know of your comments.
