All Reviews for Top Places to Visit in Oahu

We had an amazing tour !!
It was so much fun and worth the money.
The driver was so informative and helped to make the day even more enjoyable 😊
I would recommend this tour to anyone visiting!! Also a great tour for those with mobility struggles.

It was easy to get around since the boat departs from Waikiki. At the snorkeling point, there were turtles that we could see up close. The water off Waikiki was also very clear and beautiful.

Additionally, after snorkeling, we cruised around to the back of Diamond Head, which made it feel like more than just a snorkeling trip. The staff only spoke English, but they provided explanations in Japanese, so even those who are not good at English will be fine!

ワイキキから船が出るので、移動が楽でした。シュノーケルポイントもカメが居て間近で見れました。ワイキキ沖でも水が澄んでいて凄く綺麗でした。
また、シュノーケルの後、ダイヤモンドヘッドの裏位までクルージングしてくれて、ただシュノーケルやってお終いって感じじゃなかったのが良かったです。スタッフは英語だけですが、日本語の説明書きを見せてくれるので、英語が苦手な方でも大丈夫です！

The weather was perfect, and it was the best experience! Choosing the banana boat and tubing course was the right decision. During the banana boat ride, the boat staff took us to a sea turtle spot, so they stopped the boat for us to watch the sea turtles, and the kids were thrilled.

天気にも恵まれ最高でした♪バナナボートとチューブラインのコースで正解でした。バナナボートでは途中ボートの方が海亀のポイントに連れてってくれたので、ボートを止めて海亀ウォッチをしてくれ、子供も感激してました。

It was amazing.
Having a Japanese guide made me feel at ease.
Most of the participants were foreigners, so you can really enjoy the local atmosphere since there aren't many Japanese people.
There were plenty of staff on the boat who provided solid support and had very high energy.
We saw both dolphins and whales, and we also spotted sea turtles.
The bus ride to the location takes about 1 to 1.5 hours. It was quite cramped, and the air conditioning didn't work at all, so I was sweating a lot.
The journey to and from was the only tough part.
Lunch is distributed at the end, so it might be good to bring some salty snacks.
There is water available on the boat, so that's fine.
After getting in the water, it gets chilly, so a light jacket is essential.

最高でした。
日本語のガイドさんがいてくれたので、安心。
参加者のほとんどが外国人。日本人はあまりいないので、現地の雰囲気楽しめます。
船にスタッフも多く、しっかりサポートしてくれますし、テンションめちゃ高いです。
イルカもクジラも見れて、ウミガメも見れました。
現地までのバスが片道1時間から1時間半。かなりギュウギュウの状態で、冷房全く効かないので汗だく。
行き帰りだけが地獄です。
ランチは最後に配られるので、塩気のあるお菓子とか持っていけたら尚いいかも。
水などは船にあるので、大丈夫。
海に入った後は冷えるので、羽織もの必須。

I would like to thank our guides, Chieko and Dan, once again! I have experienced many tours like this, but I was truly impressed by your hospitality.

The night before, I received an email informing me that "Hanauma Bay is expected to be crowded due to the holiday, so we will pick you up 15 minutes early." It was very considerate of you.

The pickup and entry to Hanauma Bay were smooth, and you provided clear instructions on where to position ourselves to watch the explanation video.

For the early morning course in December, I hadn't reserved a wetsuit, but you advised me that it would be better to wear one because it was cold, and I was able to rent one on the spot.

My daughter (10 years old) brought her own snorkeling gear, but you kindly helped us switch the tube part to a high-spec rental item.

The snorkeling was amazing! With Chieko and Dan guiding us, and Chieko holding my daughter's hand, we were able to swim until the end and even see a sea turtle. It was a thrilling experience.

I definitely want to use your services again. Thank you very much!

ガイドのチエコさんダンさん、またお世話になりたいです！こういったツアーは沢山体験してきましたが、お2人のホスピタリティには感動しました。

前日夜、メールもいただいていたのですが、ホテルの部屋に「ハナウマ湾周辺はホリデーで混雑が予想されるので、15分早くピックアップします」とご丁寧にご連絡いただきました。

ピックアップもハナウマ湾への入場もスムーズで、説明ビデオを見るポジション取りもしっかり教えていただきました。

12月の早朝コース、ウェットスーツの予約をしていなかったのですが、寒いから着たほうが良いとアドバイスいただき、追加でその場でレンタルさせてもらいました。
娘(10歳)はシュノーケリング持参で行きましたが、筒の部分はハイスペックなレンタル品に変えてもらったり、お気遣いいただきました。

シュノーケリングも最高！
チエコさんダンさんにしっかりガイドしてもらい、チエコさんが娘の手を繋いでいてくれたおかげで、最後まで泳ぐことができ、ウミガメにも会えました。感激です。

また是非お世話になりたいです。
ありがとうございました！

The zip line was high and long, absolutely fantastic! Along the way, we cracked and ate macadamia nuts, and the initial transport was by buggy, so we had a variety of experiences. Although they were out of stock, it seems we could have eaten bananas if they were available.

The tour guide spoke only English, but it wasn't a problem since you can just watch what others are doing, and you don't really need detailed explanations.

You have to jump down from platforms about 10 meters high at two spots, so you’ll be jumping from a height (I’m not great with heights either, but the cable slows down your fall, so it was okay).

Since it was a plan without pickup, we went by rental car. I thought driving would be a hassle, but there are plenty of sightseeing spots around and all the way to Waikiki, and driving isn’t too complicated, so I recommend renting a car.

ジップラインは高く＆長く最高でした！途中マカダミアナッツを割って食べたり、最初の移動もバギーだったりと、色んな体験ができました。在庫切れでしたが、バナナがあれば食べれたみたいです。
ツアーガイドは英語だけですが、他の人がやっている所をみれば、特に細かな説明もいらないので問題ないです。
2カ所ほど10mくらいの高さの台からジャンプして降りなければならないので、高い所から飛び降ります(私も超苦手ですがケーブルで落ちる速度は減速できるので大丈夫でした)。
送迎なしプランだったのでレンタカーで行きました。運転面倒だなと思いましたが、周辺からワイキキまで沢山観光スポットがあるし、運転はそんなにややこしく無いので、レンタカーでもオススメです。

What a rip off ! It says on their website that they will snorkeling for 45 to 60 minutes but they were only snorkeling for 25 minutes! Kylie was not friendly and accommodating. She made my daughter's experience horrible

I made a reservation here for New Year's Eve dinner on December 31st. We started with a buffet-style meal and then moved to the venue for the show. Since I booked a VIP package, the food and drinks were served with priority, which was great. I also took advantage of a paid option to have a photographer take pictures, and I was able to take home a special album with those photos. They took such wonderful pictures, and it became a great memory. The show also had the best seats in the center guaranteed, so we were smoothly guided to our seats. I definitely want to go again and would recommend it to my friends! It was amazing!

12月31日大晦日のディナーとしてこちらを予約しました。
最初にバイキング形式の食事をしてから、ショーを行う会場へ移動し観覧しました。
VIPで予約したので食事やドリンクは優先的に提供され、とても良かったです。
有料オプションでカメラマンに写真を撮ってもらい、専用のアルバムに入れた物を持ち帰るサービスも利用しました。
とっても素敵な写真を撮ってもらえて、良い思い出になりました。
ショーも1番見やすい中央の席が確約されていたのでスムーズに案内してくれました。
また行きたいし、友人にもオススメしたいと思えるところでした！最高です！

The staff were bright and funny, and they were the best. The donuts we got on the boat were delicious, but the juice was just okay. The place to disembark from the boat is in 1.5m of water. It's a tour mainly focused on attractions. Swimwear is a must. The attractions were enjoyable and felt safe with the staff's supervision.

スタッフは明るく面白い人たちでサイコーでした。
船でもらったドーナツは美味しかったけど、ジュースはイマイチかも。
船から降りる場所は、1.5mの海におります。アトラクションメインのツアーです。水着は必須。アトラクションはスタッフの見守りもあって安心で楽しめました。

I highly recommend this place to ride ATVs! The location is beautiful and the staff and guides are so knowledgeable and friendly I was treated like family here. I will definitely return again whenever I'm in oahu!

Words or pictures cannot describe the beauty from this trip. The guide was also very friendly and helpful. The facility was clean and the checking in process was smooth.

My only disappointment was the transportation to the hotel. The driver was rude and unhappy. He also made numerous phone calls and was talking on what appeared to be personal matters for over an hour of our drive which felt very unprofessional and even unsafe. I contacted the company to share my experience and I appreciate they responded immediately. A bus of many tourists on vacation should not have to listen to their driver complaining about work. On top of that he never even greeted any of the passengers onboard - definitely not reflective of the drivers of any of my other excursions . Overall, experience at the valley was unbelievable. The UTVs are the way to go.

I attended with high expectations, but contrary to my hopes, I wasn't that impressed. There are many more beautiful beaches on the East Coast, so I think it's better to look for those. The live music on the ship was very good.

期待して参加しましたが、期待に反しそれほど感動できませんでした。東海岸にはもっときれいなビーチがたくさんありますので、それを探していった方がいいと思います。船内の音楽演奏は、とても良かったです。

I just attended earlier. One word: you absolutely have to go. Even if you're not in the front row, you’re still close enough to the stage to feel the excitement! I hope they come to Japan too.

先程参加してきました。
一言。絶対行くべきです。
席は前でなくても十分ステージと近く迫力あります！
日本にも来て欲しいな。

It was the activity I was looking forward to the most, and I had a lot of fun, but the sea conditions weren't very good, and the boat was rocking a lot, which made me feel seasick. However, I was glad that I could see sharks properly and took a lot of videos.

1番楽しみにしてたアクティビティで、とても楽しかったのですが、海のコンディションがあまり良くなかったのか、船がすごく揺れて酔いました。
けど、サメもちゃんと見れてたくさん動画を撮れてよかったです

It was truly an amazing experience! The tour was led by a knowledgeable guide who explained everything in detail, allowing us to learn about Hawaii's nature and history. We also enjoyed driving off-road in buggies and navigating the hilly course at the playground. Getting covered in red dirt afterwards was also quite fun. Keola and Raymond were our guides! Keola was the main guide and only spoke English, so it might be tough if you can't understand English. However, Raymond speaks Japanese, so I look forward to future tours.

ほんとに最高な体験です！
ツアーは知識豊富なガイドが丁寧に説明してくれハワイの自然や歴史を学ぶことができます。またバギーでオフロードを気持ちよく走ったり、プレイグラウンドで起伏もあるコースを走ったりと楽しめました。
終わった後に全身が赤土まみれになるのもまた楽しかったかな。
ケオラとレイモンドにガイドを担当して貰いました！
ケオラがメインガイドで英語のみのため、英語のヒアリング出来ないと厳しいかもしれません。レイモンドが日本語できるので今後に期待します。

It was a beautiful day to head out to the sandbar. Glad we pick this excursion.

We got to see four dolphins and several turtles. Not to mention a large school of all kinds of fish.

The staff was very, very friendly. I want to go again! We highly recommend

The scenery was very nice, and the ride was comfortable. The driver's service was also good, making it a pleasant experience. The price was affordable, and the duration was short, so it was easy to participate.

景色も大変良く、走行も快適でした。ドライバーの対応も良く良い体験でした。
価格も安く時間も短いので気軽に参加できました。

I really wanted to see Michael's show, so I reserved a VIP seat. I was guided to the center seat in the third row from the front, and it truly became a wonderful time. Since it was the last day of my stay in Hawaii, I made the best memories. Also, at the buffet before the show, I shared a fun time with the person sitting next to me and made a new friend. With the fusion of hula and rock, it was truly American. The entertainment value was high, and it was very good.

マイケルさんのショーを是非観たいと思い、VIP席を予約。前から3列目センター席に案内して頂き、本当に素晴らしい時間となりました。ハワイ滞在最終日だったので、最高の思い出が出来ました。また、ショー前のビュッフェでは、隣の席になった方と楽しい時間を共有し、新たな友人が出来ました。フラとロックの融合ということで、流石アメリカ。エンターテイメント性が高く、とても良かったです。

It was less crowded than Waikiki Beach, allowing us to relax and enjoy our time. We participated as a group of six across three generations, and it was great that we could choose bicycles, floaties, and pancakes from Boots & Kimo's. The kids played on the beach with the floaties almost without taking a break. Having Japanese staff made us feel reassured, and it was nice to be able to ask for recommendations. The plate lunch was also delicious. It was a tour I would like to join again.

ワイキキビーチよりも人が少なく、ゆったりとした時間を過ごせました。3世代6人で参加しましたが、自転車、浮き輪、ブーツキモズのパンケーキを選択できて良かったです。子どもたちはほとんど休むことなく、浮き輪を持ってビーチで遊んでいました。
日本人スタッフがいてくださったので、心強く、おすすめなども聞けて良かったです。プレートランチも美味しかったです。また参加したいなと思うツアーでした。

The boat was well-organized and clean. Thanks to the presence of a dock, we were able to board without worrying about the waves.

We departed smoothly, cruised calmly, and returned to port without any issues.

The charm of the catamaran lies in being able to see up close how the vessel sits low in the water, powerfully facing the waves. With sails designed by Hilton, it bravely confronts the wind, making a strong sound as it flaps, all against the backdrop of a blue sky! This is what I thought a catamaran should be.

We departed smoothly, cruised calmly, and returned to port without any issues.

船は整理されていて綺麗な船でした。桟橋が有るため波を気にせずに乗船出来ました。
スムーズに出港し穏やかに快走しスムーズに帰港しました。
カタマランの魅力は船艇が低く波を被り力強く波に向って行く様子が間近に見れるのが最大の魅力てはないでしようか。
ヒルトンをデザインした帆で風に立ち向かい音を立て力強く羽撃くセールとその上蒼い空！これぞカタマランと思っていました。

スムーズに出港し穏やかに快走しスムーズに帰港しました

遊園地の観光船の様に

We were in Hawaii for my 60th birthday, girl trip! The crew of the cruise were very friendly and we had a great time! Recommend!

I wish the day we went the clouds was not covering the sun so the water was a little bit cold . The staff was awesome and activities was there to do but there was a jelly fish lingering so people got stung . Beside that it was a great adventure.

I was expecting to enjoy a photo show, but the meal was a buffet, and there were just three women dancing next to the table. I intended to look up at the stage from the audience, but it was completely different. "Rock a Hula" is a separate show. I felt disappointed, thinking, "What a letdown."

写真のショーを楽しめるものと期待してましたが、食事はバイキングで、テーブルの横で女性3人が踊るだけ。客席からステージを見上げる積もりだったのに、全然違いました。
「ロック　ア　フラ」というのは別のショー。なーんだ、という感じで、期待はずれでした。

There were many closures, and the rides available for play were limited, which was disappointing. However, I was satisfied with the rides I did go on. Given the limited time, I hope there will be shorter wait times in the future.

closeが多く、遊べる乗り物が限定されていました、残念です、
乗った乗り物については、満足しています。時間が限られているだけに、今後、待ち時間が少なることを期待します

Two female crew members moved swiftly, raising the sails and stopping the engine for a refreshing sailing experience. Not only were their steering skills impressive, but their high level of entertainment and hospitality made the experience very enjoyable. When we got off the boat, it was around 6:30, just in time for dinner, so making a reservation at a restaurant near the Royal Hawaiian would allow you to avoid waiting. I recommend the American Chinese restaurant P.F. Chang's.

2人の女性クルーがテキパキと動き、帆をあげてエンジンを止めて爽快にセイリング。操舵の技術もさることながら、ホストを盛り上げてもてなすエンターテイメント性の高い接客技術にとても気持ちよく酔えました。船を降りると6時半でちょうど夕飯の時間なので、ロイヤルハワイアン周辺のレストランを予約しておけば待たずに入れます。アメリカのチャイニーズアメリカンレストランP.F.Changあたりがおすすめです。

I thought it might be tough since we had to gather early in the morning, but it turned out to be a great experience. On the day, we encountered dolphins and whales, and we were able to enjoy the subsequent activities as well. The staff, including AYA who spoke Japanese and INGRID who was great at hula, were kind and fun, which made it even better.

Since it's an activity involving nature, whether you see the animals depends on luck, but I recommend giving it a try.

早朝の集合時間だったので、きついかなぁと思っていましたが、それ以上に良い体験ができました。
当日はイルカとクジラに遭遇することができ、その後のアクティビティも楽しむことができました。
日本語スタッフのAYAさんやフラが上手なINGRIDさんなど親切で楽しいスタッフがガイドしてくれてとてもよかったです。

自然相手のアクティビティなので、動物と会えるかは運次第ですが、参加してみてはどうでしょう。

I applied for tickets for three people and completed the card payment, but when I arrived on the day, I was informed that only one ticket had been issued. It was quite chaotic at the venue. I had reserved three of the best seats and completed the payment, yet I struggled to enter because I didn't receive an email. There were others who had made reservations on the same site and were also denied entry for the same reason. In the end, after confirming the details of my card payment, I was finally able to enter, but it was quite frustrating. I wouldn't recommend making reservations through this site. I don't think it's acceptable to spend a lot of money and have a negative experience that wastes time.

3人分のチケットを申し込もしてカード払いも終えて当日現地に行くとチケットが1人分しか発券していない。との指摘を受けて現地でバタバタと。席も一番良き席を3席分予約をしてお支払いも完了しているのにメールが来ない理由で入場するのに手こずりました。同じサイトで予約をしている人もいて同じ内容で入場を断れていました。結果カード払いをした内容を確認してやっとの思いで入場できましたが参りました。このサイトからの予約はお勧めはしないかなぁ。高いお金を出して嫌な思いをして時間の無駄遣いには全く納得がいかないと思います。

Thank you for a wonderful day with my grandchildren, enjoying water activities that are different from Waikiki. The bus transportation was also smooth.

ワイキキとは違う水遊びが出来て孫たちに最高な一日を有り難う御座いました。バスでの送迎もスムーズです。

We participated as a family of magic lovers (an elementary school student, a preschooler, and a father). The performers recognized that we were Japanese and incorporated some Japanese into the show, which the father enjoyed, but it seemed difficult for the children who didn't understand English. My elementary school son somewhat understood, while my preschool son was completely lost (laughs). It’s quite an expensive show, and it wasn't suitable for children who can't understand English. They were very happy with the magic kit as a souvenir.

マジック好きの親子（小学生、幼稚園児、父）で参加しました。
日本人と気づいて頂き、所々日本語を交えて下さり
父は楽しめましたが英語が分からない子供たちには難しかったようです。
小学生の息子はなんとなくわかった、と、幼稚園児の息子にはちんぷんかんぷん（苦笑）
かなり高価なショーですし、英語を理解できない子供には不向きでした。
お土産のマジックキットには大喜びでした。
