All Reviews for Top Places to Visit in Oahu

Like Sabrina Carpenter would say- short and sweet! Perfect to get out on the water and snorkeling right by the hotels!

Early morning tour but you get back with the day still to explore more, great way to see PH!

A wonderful, muddy, full of laughs family memory on Oahu!

What a great route to take and get to see all of the gorgeous Oahu!

For my husband and I who were not sure if we were comfortable in deeper water, this snorkel was perfect and shallow with plenty of fish!

Getting to see the Missouri was our favorite part of this tour. Unreal!

A wonderful event that my husband and kiddos all loved- a memory made together!

We loved the extra inclusions on this tour! Fabulous and easy day around PH

The tour guide really worked with our family and we got to see everything! We love honu!

This was our last night in Hawaii and this was the perfect way to end it. The setup was excellent and very cute. Jenny and Joshua were awesome host. They had everything setup made it really easy to find them. The food was also very good we ate pretty the whole charcuterie board. Overall it was a good experience to do, would recommend it.

The experience of driving the 4-wheel buggy course at Kualoa Ranch was fantastic with beautiful scenery, and the staff were friendly. However, the waiting times after pickup and before starting, as well as after finishing and waiting for the return shuttle, were over 3 hours in total—2 hours and more than 1 hour respectively. Even with shopping for souvenirs and having a meal, it felt like too much time. There were no other attractions to pass the time, making it a boring and wasted experience. It would be more efficient to skip the shuttle and book directly on-site, as it would save valuable time during a day in Hawaii.

4輪バギーでのクアロアランチのコース走破体験自体は凄く景観良くて
スタッフもフレンドリーで良かったのですが、ピックアップ後に現地に
ついてからの開始までのと終わってから帰り送迎までの待ち時間が
それぞれ2時間、1時間以上と計3時間以上もあり、お土産物色や食事をしても
持ち余してしまう。　他に時間をつぶせる見ものも無く退屈で無駄な時間。
貴重なハワイ1日の3時間強を無駄にするから、送迎なして゛直接現地での申し込みにした方が効率的である。

It was overall an enjoyable experience. I had minor gripes I don’t recall anyone asking how we would like our steak cooked, some were medium, some were medium rare, I know it was a busy day but we found a hair. I enjoyed the drink selection and the bartender did a great job. The servers and staff were great. It was rather warm and it wasn’t until the way back that someone decided to open the “plastic windows” to allow more of a breeze. The Luau portion was just as enjoyable as everything else. I truly had a great time, and would definitely recommend.

I had a reservation for the first day in Hawaii around 1:00 PM, but the flight was delayed, it took 70 minutes at immigration, and there were only two staff members at the rental car company, which took another 30 minutes—what a time loss...

I arrived at the location 60 minutes after tea time... I tried negotiating to see if I could get in sooner, but they said it could only be done after 3:30 PM. Well, that's to be expected... Then they asked, "How long will you be in Hawaii? Do you have any free days during this trip?" When I mentioned that I had time on the fourth day, they said, "OK, I'll reschedule for that day!" and changed my reservation.

There are staff members who can communicate in Japanese, so even if you're not confident in your English, you can feel at ease going on this course.

Initially, I had planned to play at this golf course on the first and second days of my Hawaii trip, but it ended up being on the second and fourth days instead.

The start times were almost the same, but the second day took 5 hours and 20 minutes for the round, while the fourth day took 3 hours and 50 minutes, so luck might be a factor...

ハワイ到着初日の13:00過ぎに予約をしていたのですが、飛行機は遅れる、イミグレで70分かかる、レンタカー屋では受付2人しかいなくて30分かかる、タイムロス…

現地到着がティータイムの60分後…。
ダメもとで、すぐにできないか？と交渉するも15:30以降しかできないとの返答。まぁ、当たり前の話だ…
そうしたら、君たちはいつまでハワイにいるの？
今回の旅行で空いている日ある？
と聞かれたので、
4日目なら時間ある！と伝えたら、
OKその日にリスケしてあげる！
と予約変更していただきました。

日本語でコミュニケーションとれるスタッフもいるので、英語に自信がなくても安心して行けるコースですよ。

今回、ハワイ旅行初日・2日目でこのゴルフ場で予定していましたが、結果的には2日目・4日目となりました。

スタート時間はほぼ同じだけど、2日目はラウンド5時間20分。4日目はラウンド3時間50分と運も必要になるかも…

I had previously played at Hawaii Prince Golf Club with a friend and found it to be spacious and not too difficult.

This time, I came to play with my family of three. It was a bit reckless… Before coming to Hawaii, I had my family take lessons for six months, and we played a round in Japan in August. My wife hasn't played in 27 years, and this is my son's first round in Japan. This is my second time.

Well, I thought we would play by special rules if we were to get separated from the group in front of us.

However, on this day, it seemed there was a competition with 75 Koreans ahead of us, resulting in slow play. It took us 2 hours and 40 minutes for the front nine.

So, my wife and son got a baptism of golf. (laughs)

ハワイプリンスゴルフ場には、以前友人とプレーしたことがあり、広くてさほど難しくない印象がありました。

今回、家族３人でプレーしに来ました。
それも、ちょっと無謀にも…ハワイに来る前、半年間レッスンに通わせ、8月に国内でラウンド。妻は27年ぶり。息子は国内ラウンドが初。今回2回目。

まぁ、前の組と離れるようならば、特別ルールでプレーしようと思っていました。

ただ、この日は、私たちの前に韓国人７５人のコンペが入っていたようで、スロープレー。ハーフ2:40かかってしまいました。

なので、妻と息子にはゴルフの洗礼を浴びてもらいました。笑

You can switch drivers along the way, so it seems like fun no matter how many people you go with! The buggy instructors don't speak Japanese, so those who don't understand English might not get much information (laughs). However, they take photos at the key spots, and everyone is friendly♪

Also, since you'll be driving on dry dirt, there's a lot of dust. Be careful, as the helmet can make your face dirty!

途中で運転する人が変われるので、何人で行っても楽しそう！
バギーのインストラクターの人達は、日本語ではないので英語がわからない人は何も伝わらないかも（笑）
でもポイントスポットで写真を撮ってくれるので、みんなフレンドリーです♪

また土が乾いている中で走行するので、砂ぼこりがごっっっついです。あとヘルメットで顔が黒くなるのでご注意を！

Riding a horse leisurely through nature (not on a lead line, but riding solo) is an experience that you can't have in Japan. Just a heads up, after two hours of horseback riding, your butt will definitely be quite sore!

自然の中をゆったり馬に乗りながら(引き馬でなく1人乗りで)進んで行くので、日本ではできない体験だなぁと思います。
乗馬2時間はお尻が相当痛くなりますので、ご注意を！

The water is so different over on this snorkel tour, and they pick up from hotel!

Bring your family, all ages have a wonderful time, and there is plenty of different food choices!

We loved our agent for setting this up ahead of time for us!! MAHALO

The night was ran very smooth. Don't be fooled by its connection to a waterpark as we were worried of the authenticity, but they blew us away!

Great way to get a bus transfer and a stop at Leonards- a tourist dream :)

The guide is moreso on the bus portions, but overall a great day at PH!

The upgraded cruise was well worth it for us, the food was divine!

Oahu had some serious crystal clear waters! Warm, sunny day of fun with my family- unbeatable.

Since I was staying in Ko Olina, I went by rental car instead of using the shuttle plan. I paid the parking fee in cash at the entrance, and when I headed back to the entrance after parking, a Japanese staff member greeted me. They provided a thorough explanation of the park and how to use the lockers, which was very helpful. I was able to ride the slides without much waiting, but it was disappointing that some attractions were not operating. On weekdays, the park closed at 3 PM, so it felt like it closed in no time.

コオリナに宿泊していたので、送迎プランではなくレンタカーで行きました。
駐車場の入り口で代金を現金で支払い、駐車後に入口へ向かうと、日本人スタッフの方が声をかけてくれました。一通りの園内の説明やロッカーの利用方法も教えてもらえて助かりました。スライダーはほぼ並ぶことなく乗ることが出来ますが、一部運行していないアトラクションもあり残念でした。平日は１５時までだったので、あっという間に閉園になってしまいました。

We participated with our middle school child who wanted to go horseback riding, making it a family of three.

The guide explained the history of Kualoa Ranch, including movie filming locations and the World War II munitions depot, in English and broken English while we leisurely rode the horses. It was a very satisfying tour where we could enjoy the scenery and horseback riding at a relaxed pace.

Since we booked the morning tour, we enjoyed delicious hamburgers at the cafeteria afterward. We had Hawaiian cuisine made with ingredients from Kualoa Ranch. The attached souvenir shop was also well-stocked, and our child was very happy. A little further away, there was a farmers market selling local coffee, honey, vegetables, meat, and ice pops, which was a lot of fun.

The atmosphere was relaxed, and we could enjoy the day at a leisurely pace. I definitely want to visit again.

乗馬をしたいと言う中学生の子供と家族３人で参加しました。

６人分ループでガイドの方が英語とカタコトの英語で映画のロケ地になったところや第二次世界大戦次の爆薬庫、クアロアランチの歴史などをのんびりお馬さんに乗りながら説明してくださいました。ゆっくりしたペースで景色と乗馬を満喫できて大満足なツアーでした。

午前中のツアーを予約したので、終了後はカフェテリアで美味しいハンバーガーをいただきました。クアロアランチ産の食材を使ったハワイ料理がいただけます。併設のお土産屋さんも充実で子供も満足していました。少し離れた場所にはファーマーズマーケットがあり、ローカルのコーヒーや蜂蜜、ランチで採れた野菜やお肉、アイスキャンディーなどが売られていて、楽しかったです。

のんびりとした時間が流れていて、1日のんびり楽しめます。
是非、再訪したいな、と思いました。

I participated in a tour that gathered on-site. The ticket exchange was clearly explained and went smoothly.

Some of the thrilling slides were closed at times, possibly due to a lack of staff. I was disappointed that the lazy river, which I was looking forward to, was closed all day. The closing time was a bit early, so I couldn't fully enjoy my time there. However, the fact that we could play without waiting too much made the kids very happy.

While it wasn't a day filled with endless fun, I enjoyed the relatively quick access to slides similar to those at Yomiuri Land's pool in a relaxed atmosphere.

現地集合のツアーでの参加でした。
チケット交換なども分かりやすく説明してあり、スムースでした。

絶叫スライダーなどは人不足なのか、時間によりお休みしているものもありました。楽しみにしていた流れるプールも終日休みでがっかりでした。
終了時間が早めなので、満喫！と言うところまではいきませんでした。
ただ、あまり並ばずに遊べたのは子供も大喜びでした。

1日たくさん遊んで大満足！と言うほどではありませんが、のんびりとしたなか、読売ランドのプールのようなスライダーを比較的サクサクと楽しめたのはよかったです。

Very friendly staffs and pick up from Waikīkī hotel is included in this price!
We saw at least 3 huge turtles! Happy!

Hayato, the Japanese guide, rode with us on the shuttle bus and provided explanations on the way to the port. The photographer was a foreigner, but he tried to communicate using a translation device and was very kind. The boat was double-decker, with foreigners on the first floor and Japanese on the second. There were two Japanese guides on the second floor to assist us. It was quite rocky, and some people felt sick, so it's advisable to take motion sickness medication. Children from the age of five can swim, but they need to jump off the boat one by one with fins and snorkel sets, so it might be scary unless the child is very adventurous.

Unfortunately, on the day we participated, we couldn't swim with the dolphins, but we were able to see them from the boat. (There are areas where swimming with them is not allowed.) In the snorkeling area, we saw turtles, so we could swim with them.

On the return bus, I tried to get off in front of the hotel, but the door closed right in front of me, and in the end, we had to stop at the hotel one more time to drop us off. The driver didn't speak Japanese and seemed hard of hearing, so I recommend that those who are not confident in their English sit in the front seats to get off quickly.

日本人ガイドのハヤトさんが送迎のバスから一緒に乗ってくださって、港にいくまでの間に説明をしてくれました。カメラマンさんは外国の方でしたが、翻訳機能を使って意思疎通をしようとしてくれて、とても良い方でした。二階建ての船でしたが、外国の方が１階、日本人は2階で振り分けられていました。2階には日本人ガイドさんが２人いてサポートしてくださいました。結構揺れて気持ち悪くなってる方がいたので酔い止めは飲んだ方がいいです。５歳からスイムも可能となっていますが、船から一人ずつフィンとシュノーケルセットをつけて飛び降りる必要があるので、よほど冒険心のあるお子さんでないと怖いのではないかなと思いました。
私たちが参加した日は残念ながらイルカと一緒に泳ぐことはできなかったのですが、船の上からイルカを見ることはできました。（エリアによって一緒に泳げないエリアがあります。）またシュノーケルエリアでは亀がいたので、亀と一緒に泳ぐことはできました。
帰りのバスでホテル前で降りようとしましたが、目の前で扉を閉められてしまい、結局最後にもう一度ホテルに寄って降ろしてもらいました。運転手さんは日本語が話せない方で耳も遠い感じだったので、英語に自信のない方は前方の席に座って素早く降りることをおすすめします。

I went with children who aren't very familiar with Elvis or Michael, but they had a great time. In addition, there are hula performances and fire shows, so I think it's a good show! Also, at the end, you can take photos with the performers and have conversations with them!

エルビスやマイケルをあまり知らない子供と行きましたがとても楽しんでいました。
それ以外にもフラやファイヤーショーなども見られるので良いショーだと思います！
また帰り際には出演者さんと一緒に写真が撮れ会話も交わせます！
