We flew in a four-seater plane, with my husband piloting and our 3-year-old daughter and I sitting in the back. Our daughter had a child seat installed on board and rode comfortably. She was a bit fussy due to sleepiness, but she ended up falling asleep during the flight, which was quite stable.
My husband's piloting was a bit nerve-wracking, but I'm glad we had the experience at least once. We really enjoyed the ride together.
According to my husband, the piloting wasn't difficult. Since the pilot spoke English, it might be more enjoyable for those who understand a little English.
4人乗りの飛行機で、夫が操縦、私と3歳の娘が後ろの席同乗しました。
娘はチャイルドシートを機内に設置してもらい、乗りました。娘は眠くて機内でぐずりましたが、飛行中に寝てしまい、それほど安定した飛行でした。
夫の操縦はヒヤヒヤしましたが、1度は体験できてよかったです。同乗でもとても楽しめました。
夫曰く、操縦は難しくなかったそうです。
パイロットは英語なので、少し英語が分かる方がより楽しめるかもしれません。

I was very satisfied to be entrusted with most of the piloting. I was also able to take valuable photos during the flight. Additionally, I received a sightseeing tour from the sky, which allowed me to learn more about Oahu.
Before and after the flight, I was pleased to be provided with surprise tea and snacks.
操縦の大部分を任せてもらえて、満足度が高いです。
操縦時の貴重な写真も撮って頂きました。
また、空から観光案内もしてもらえて、オアフ島の事をより知る事が出来ました。
操縦前、後にはサプライズのお茶やお菓子も用意して頂き満足でした。

Go Adventure Hawaii was one of the best experiences we had on Oahu!! Not only did we see at least 10 sharks and a whale, the staff were some of the greatest people we met! All three guys were super informative, accommodating, made us feel super safe and even gave us a bunch of awesome recommendations for the things to do/eat. Highly recommend these guys for a once in a lifetime experience!! If you get a chance, practice snorkeling in the shallow water before just diving in for the first time like we did! Definitely recommend getting the photo package! Can’t wait to get our back!!

I have waited a while to write this review. I am not usually negative about many things, but I honestly did not enjoy this tour, primarily due to our tour guide.
I booked this tour for my hubby & myself as it was his first time to the island, so I wanted him to experience the entire island & see each of the highlights which this tour had every stop I was looking for. The itinerary as indicated on the website was perfect ... however our tour guide, Chief Rob as he called himself, had his own itinerary. I think he was grumpy when he picked us up, and almost came across as a strict school teacher pretty much immediately, so not really a fun guy or a fun day. We did not have the early breakfast stop at Leonards, he instead decided that he wanted to stop at a different location further into the tour. So we had to walk around the temple eating this donut, only to be immediately taken for lunch afterwards - poor planning. And the north shore visit, was a super quick drive-by. Meanwhile we talked to others who did island tours, and they stopped at Turtle Beach, etc, so we were kind of bummed about that. I feel we could have spent more time with a stop along North Shore and less time at the Dole plantation ... as the amount of time that we were given at the Dole plantation didn't really allow for us to do anything, yet long enough that we were bored.
All in all, the tour itinerary seemed decent but the day we had was not fun. Actually, this tour was the least fun part of my entire trip so I don't think I would recommend it to others

Experiencing hands-on piloting is quite rare globally, making it a very valuable experience. Takeoffs and landings are handled by the pilot, but if you follow the rules given and build a trusting relationship with the pilot, you may be allowed to pilot the aircraft solo from a relatively stable point. Having many Japanese staff members provides a great sense of reassurance. I highly recommend it!
体験操縦ができるのは世界的にも稀で、とても貴重な経験ができます。離着陸はパイロットにお任せですが、言われたルールを守っていただき、パイロットとの信頼関係が生まれれば、ある程度安定したタイミングからひとりで操縦させてもらえます。日本人のスタッフが多くいらっしゃることはとても安心感があります。おすすめです!

I was treated very politely and friendly, which made me feel at ease. I waited in the lounge as a companion, and I was able to enjoy drinks and snacks, as well as books like the "Rurubu" guide, so I didn't get bored while waiting. My husband, after his flight experience, was very happy and said he thoroughly enjoyed Oahu from the sky. However, it seems he couldn't directly control the takeoff and landing (perhaps because the wind was a bit strong), and he really wanted to do that. But he was excited that he could maneuver the turns in the air with his own controls. The staff were truly attentive and made it a pleasant experience to participate in the tour. Thank you very much!
とても丁寧にフレンドリーに接して頂き 安心できて良かったです 私は付き添いでラウンジで待っていたのですが 飲み物やスナックを頂き るるぶなどの本もあり 退屈せずに待てました 体験操縦終わった主人はとても喜んでおり 空からのオアフ島を堪能出来たそうです ただ離着陸の操縦を直接出来なかったみたいで(風が強めだったからでしょうか)本当はしたかったみたいです でも空の上での旋回は自分のハンドルで出来たみたいで興奮していました スタッフの方々は本当に至れり尽くせりで気持ち良くツアーに参加出来ました 本当に有難う御座いました

I participated with my family, and it was a truly valuable experience to be able to pilot a Cessna. The pilot who accompanied us was very kind, and it was an enjoyable flight. Flying around Oahu, crossing over Waikiki and Diamond Head, was refreshing and exciting! The program is fantastic as it allows you to take in the sights of Oahu from above, as you circle all the way around to the North Shore. Of course, holding the controls and piloting really makes you feel like a bird! It's a rare experience, so if you have the chance, definitely go for it!
家族で参加したのですが、
何せ、セスナを操縦できるということで大変貴重な体験でした。
同乗したパイロットの方が大変優しく、楽しいフライトでした。
オアフ島を1周、ワイキキ市街からダイヤモンドヘッドを横切り、上空を飛行するのは爽快で、興奮しました!
ノースショアまでぐるっと1周丸々周るので、オアフ島を俯瞰で観光できる、素晴らしいプログラムです。
もちろん、操縦桿を握って操縦すると本当に鳥になったような気分です!
滅多にできる経験ではないのでチャンスがあれば是非!!

We had a wonderful time on this adventure to the north shore on Oahu. Cousin G was our guide and he did a great job taking care of us and keeping things lively. He was so knowledgeable of the history and the area and all the ins and outs of where to go. He was really funny, too! Waimea falls was beautiful and the next stop we opted for paddle boarding. We didn't see any sea turtles, but it was still fun and peaceful. We had a small group of 10, which I don't think is usual, but it was a treat for us because we could move around easily and quickly get in and out of places. We'd highly recommend this to anyone!!

Our Oahu Island Circle Tour was so much fun! Alan was our guide and he was very knowledgeable about the island and all of Hawaii in general since he was born and raised there! This tour operator could not have hired a better person to tell people about the beautiful islands of Hawaii. He loves where he lives and it shows in his work. Our tour was very personal with just the three of us in the vehicle. We were able to travel at our own pace. Alan treated us to the sites and foods of island life, something we could not have seen and done on our own. The Dole Pineapple Plantation was so interesting and delicious - you must try the Dole Whip! Amazing! The North Shore was captivating with the huge waves coming in and we did see some sea turtles swimming in shallow areas. This is a must do experience!
Hello Jackie,
Thank you so much for your review. We are glad you were able to join our tour and had a great time with Alan. The food and sights around the Island are so breathtaking. We hope you enjoyed your time spent in Hawaii and please come visit the Islands again. I will let Alan know of your comments.

The grounds are beautiful and larger than I expected. We allowed an hour to explore the grounds but could have easily spent 2-3 hours looking at all of the scenery. The luau was a lot of fun. There were some hands-on activities before we were seated which were fun. Once seated, we had a great meal and were offered seconds. I could barely finish my 1st plate:)
The entertainment was truly fun. Lots of stories, dancing, singing and some comedy. The closing of the show had fire dancers and one was a 10-year-old boy who could twirl the fire stick outrageously fast. Overall, this was a great experience which I would do again if I were in Honolulu with a car.

The kind and gentle owner couple came to pick us up at the hotel for the shuttle service. While hearing local stories about Hawaii, we arrived from our hotel in Waikiki in just 30 minutes.
We were welcomed by a wonderful lounge and staff. The restroom was the cleanest I encountered during this trip (laughs).
The captain came to greet us in advance and explained the planned flight route. And finally, it was time to board!
The cabin was smaller and more cramped than I expected, but it was exciting. Daniel K. Inouye Airport was extremely busy, so we had to wait a bit until we reached the runway. During that time, we could enjoy watching planes and helicopters taking off right next to us.
Finally, we took off. To be honest, I was scared (laughs). However, as I got used to it, I was amazed by the beautiful scenery. We could see Waikiki Beach → Diamond Head → Coco Head → Kanahoe Sand Beach → North Shore → Pearl Harbor all at once.
The pilot, who was a woman, was also happy! Thank you for this precious experience. The owner couple and all the staff were wonderful people who helped create memorable moments.
This is a recommended activity in Hawaii. Thank you!
