All Reviews for Top Places to Visit in Oahu

Snorkeling with Mickey was so much fun! It was good to see that he was enjoying it as much as we were, even though it’s something he’s done many times. He really knows how to make you feel at ease while in the water, even for first time or lesser experienced swimmers. The activity itself was very cool. We got to see some interesting animals at the ocean floor, such as sea cucumbers, sea urchins, and even some fish. I would definitely recommend to anyone who is thinking of signing up for it, and for such a reasonable price too. Surprisingly the photo’s actually turned out quite well too.

I participated in the celebration of my 60th birthday.
I attended with my wife.
It was my first time horseback riding, and I was a bit anxious, but once I started, the horse was very intelligent, and I felt a sense of unity and reassurance, which made me very happy and comfortable.

In the midst of the wonderful scenery, I had an amazing experience feeling like I could play freely with the horse.

I am grateful to the accompanying staff.
Thank you very much.

還暦の記念で参加させていただきました。
妻と2人で参加しました。
乗馬は、初めてで少し不安もありましたが、乗り始めると、とても馬が利口で安心して一体感を感じるこができたのがうれしく気持ちよかったです。

素晴らしい景色のなかで、馬と程よく自由に遊べたという感覚で素晴らしい体験ができました。

随行スタッフの方に感謝です。
ありがとうございました。

The fireworks at the Hilton on Friday lasted about 10 minutes. The Mai Tai cruise offered unlimited cocktails, and I had three cocktails, but they made them without a hint of annoyance. The night view was great, and since it was the end of the year, it was a bit cold, so you might need long sleeves.

金曜日ヒルトンの花火は10分くらいで終わりました。マイタイ号はカクテル等飲み放題でわたくしはカクテル3杯飲みましたが、嫌な顔ひとつせず作ってくれました。
夜景がいいのはもちろん年末だったので、少し寒いので、長袖は要るかも。

The basics were very helpful, however, the limitations with life vests and the lack of actual sea life made it a little less of a good experience. Overall it was received well by the family and was fun enough.

My first skydiving experience was wonderful. The weather was great, and it felt good. I was impressed by the beautiful scenery from the Cessna as we flew up high. It felt natural to jump out, and before I knew it, I was on my journey through the sky. I made a mistake with the PC operation at the local reception, but a kind female staff member helped me with the process, which was a relief. However, I think I would have enjoyed it even more if I could speak English.

初のスカイダイビング
天気もよくて気持ち良かったです
セスナに乗って上空から景色を見て綺麗だなぁと感心してました　飛び降りるのも当たり前のように次から次へと降りていきあっと言う間に空への旅に連れて行かれました
現地受付で誤ったＰＣ操作をしたのですが、現地のスタッフの女性が親切に手続きをしてくれたので助かりました
ただ、英語が喋れるともっと、楽しめると思いました

I hold pilot licenses for small aircraft in both Japan and the United States, so I booked an evening flight as the final event to cap off our honeymoon. As a small aircraft pilot, this evening is my favorite flight time.

With the guidance of the instructor pilot through complex controlled airspace and radio communication, we reached the east coast of Oahu after flying over Waikiki. The sight of the sunset was truly divine. Whether to fly over the east coast or the west coast is up to the instructor pilot's judgment, but flying over the east coast allows you to see the valley of the famous tourist spot Kualoa Ranch from the sky. I believe this is a privilege granted to those who conquer the skies. My wife, who was on her second flight with me, was able to enjoy the experience comfortably.

The luxurious reception after the flight was also wonderful, and we even received a surprise to commemorate our honeymoon. If you're unsure about which activities to experience in Hawaii, I highly recommend trying the sky adventures with LANI LEA SKY TOURS!

私は日米両方の小型飛行機の操縦免許を持っていますので、新婚旅行のトリを飾るイベントとして一番最後の枠で夕方のフライトを予約しました。小型機パイロットとしてこの夕方が一番大好きなフライト時間帯です。
教官パイロットの方による複雑な管制空域の飛行指南と無線交信により、ワイキキ上空を経て到達したオアフ島東海岸。その黄昏に染まる姿は神々しさを感じさせられものでした。東海岸もしくは西海岸を飛行するかは教官パイロットの方の判断となりますが、東海岸をフライトすると観光名所クアロア牧場の谷間を奥まで空から見渡すことが出来ます。これぞ空を征く者に許された特典だと思います。私の操縦する飛行機に乗ったのは二回目となる妻も飛行中、安心して楽しんでもらうことが出来ました。
フライトが終わった後のラグジュアリーな接待も素晴らしく、新婚旅行記念のサプライズまで頂戴しました。ハワイで体験するアクティビティをどれにするか迷われている方は、是非LANI LEA SKY TOURSさんで空の遊びをされてみてはいかがでしょうか？

Well organized tour. Tour has enough ppl to watch the full load of the onboard and plenty of equipments for each activity. They kept an close eye on everyone to assure our safety. Going with kids, to us, its a plus. I witnessed others who are seniorities and were given immediate assistance when needed. Great music band, good vocal and songs. Every team member of the tour is very friendly. I will definitely book with them next time I go to snorkeling.

This tour was great! The boat was clean and roomy. Nice tables that had shelf underneath to keep your items dry. Multiple bathrooms and changing facilities. Lunch was nice croissant lunch meat sandwhich with chips and fruit. Activities were very organized and good explanations for snorkeling, kayaks and SUP. The music was good fun and appropriate. Plenty of equipment for snorkel footballl volleyball etc The crew was awesome, helpful and personable. There was plenty of crew and life guards. They had everything that would allow you to have a fun filled day! I definitely would recommend and would book this in the future!

What views, the crater and then the whole shoreline of Waikiki from above, its unreal! Cant wait to go back.

How amazing, my kids really loved every island and all the work put in.

What an awesome show, it hits everything you want to see, fire dance, pig roast, games and hawaiian activities!

What an evening to celebrate an anniversary! Fabulous food and performers.

Lots to do, ending show was fabulous, and dinner all there was a great day in full!

It was so great to learn alot about the sharks and their environment with a crew that you can tell takes great care for the land.

This is a blast of a day! The best tour we had on our trip!

Splendid Day! We loved that you can explore the island in full so quickly and see so many awesome points!

One of the best adventures we did while in Hawaii. The staff was great, the history of the ranch was so exciting to learn about. It’s a must do while in Hawaii.We are still talking about our great times on vacation.

Thank you for all you all for an amazing day!!!

The show was very good, particularly the chief. He is a talented entertainer who interacted very well with his audience. The dancers were also very talented.
The buffet dinner was okay, nothing special.

It takes about a 50-minute drive from Waikiki to arrive. There are various experience tours available, and it's a popular tourist destination visited by many. The horses provided are well-trained and walk in a line without needing any guidance. However, my horse seemed a bit stubborn and didn't move until the guide gave it a gentle tap on the rear. I had a great experience riding through the magnificent grounds surrounded by mountains, and we also passed near the seaside. The breeze from the ocean added to the feeling of being in nature.

ワイキキから車で50分のドライブで到着。いろんな体験ツアーが用意されており、沢山の観光客が訪れている観光地です。
用意されている馬は慣れており、何もしなくても列を作って歩いていきます。ただ、私の馬はひねくれ者のようで、引率者のおねーさんが馬のお尻を叩くまで、動きません。良い体験をしました、山に囲まれた壮大な敷地を乗馬しますが、海辺の近くも通ります。海からの風もあり、自然を感じました。

The guide spoke only English, but was very kind and took many family photos for us. The guide's leading on the bike was considerate of the entire group, allowing everyone to enjoy without feeling rushed. Along the way, we visited many movie filming locations, but aside from Jurassic Park, I hadn't seen any of them before. I think I would have enjoyed it more if I had done some research beforehand. That said, we were blessed with good weather, and riding the e-mountain bike through the great outdoors was incredibly fun and amazing.

英語のみのガイドさんでしたが、とても親切で、たくさん家族の写真を撮ってくれました。
ガイドさんのバイクの先導も、一行全員を気づかっていただき、慌てることなく、参加した全員が楽しめたように感じます。
途中、映画のロケシーンを沢山まわりたしたが、ジュラシックパークス以外は見たことがなく、予習しておけば、もっと楽しめたとおもいます。
とはいっても、天気に恵まれ、eマウンテンバイクで大自然の風を切るのはとても楽しく、最高でした。

At first, I was anxious, but the crew's support and safety equipment made me feel secure, and I was able to enjoy the zip line! It was amazing✨. I was fine in short sleeves and shorts. Since you wear a helmet, it would have been better to bring a hat! On the way to the location, you can also see movie filming spots!

最初は、不安でしたが、クルーの対応や安全器具で安心して、ZIP LINEを楽しめました!最高です✨
半袖、半ズボンでも、大丈夫でした。ヘルメットをかぶるので、帽子を持っていったほうが良かったです!
現地に、行く途中、映画の撮影場所も見ることができます!

I'm really glad I was able to enter Hanauma Bay, which requires a reservation! The instructor was very polite and spoke Japanese, which was quite helpful. There were 10 participants and 2 instructors this time, but since the activities were tailored to the participants' levels, the snorkeling ended up being quite shallow, and the water clarity wasn't great. I was really looking forward to snorkeling in Hawaii, so it was a bit disappointing.

予約がないと入れないハナウマベイに入れたのは、とってもよかったです‼︎
インストラクターの方はとても丁寧で日本語も話せるので、かなり助かりました。
今回は参加者10人、インストラクター2人だったのですが、参加者のレベルに合わせてになるので今回のシュノーケリングらかなり浅瀬のみでの実施になってしまい、普通のシュノーケリングかつ海の透明度もイマイチでした。。
ハワイでのシュノーケリングなのでかなり楽しみにしていた手前少し残念でした。。

I have reserved a departure at 11:00.
There is a sign for the boarding area on the beach, so I think it will be easy to find.
After arriving, please confirm your name at the check-in counter, and then it's time to board.

The view of Waikiki from the ocean is wonderful.
Before departure, I requested to scatter my father's ashes during the cruise.
I was very grateful for the staff's thoughtfulness.

My father must be happy in heaven as well.

11:00出船を予約しました。
ビーチに乗り場の看板がありますので、すぐにわかると思います。
到着後はチェックインカウンターで名前を確認してもらい、いよいよ乗船。

沖から見るワイキキの景色は、素晴らしいです。
出発前にお願いをして、クルーズ中に父の散骨をさせていただきました。
スタッフさんの心遣いが大変嬉しかったです。

父も天国で喜んでくれているはずです。

I made a reservation for 1:00 PM.
I arrived about 15 minutes early and checked in at the counter inside the ranch.
Japanese is not spoken, so a translation app is necessary.
After checking in, walk to the right side of the ranch for a brief buggy training session.
A female staff member was in charge and really tried to make it exciting.
Raincoats and face masks are provided for free, and once you put on a full-face helmet, you're ready to go.

You get to explore various courses for about an hour.
Kualoa Ranch has an amazing location, but the time commitment and waiting can be long.
Here, you can start and finish quickly.
Once you're done, you can enjoy plenty of activities in Haleiwa before heading back.

13:00の予約申し込みをしました。
15分ほど前に到着し、
牧場内のカウンターでチェックインを済ませます。

チェックイン後は、牧場内右手に歩いていき、バギーの簡単な講習説明があります。
女性のスタッフが担当してくれたのですが、凄く盛り上げようとしてくれます。
カッパと、フェイスマスクは無料で配布され、フルフェイスヘルメットを被れば出発です。

クアロアランチはロケーションが最高ですが、
拘束時間と待ち時間が長いです。
こちらはサッと始められてサッと終われます。
終わればハレイワの街でたっぷり遊んで帰れますよ。

Unfortunately, it was quite cold and rainy, so most people only played a little in the sea at the sandbar.

However, it's natural, and since December is the rainy season in Hawaii, it can't be helped.

During the sea turtle watching, we were able to spot many sea turtles from the boat.

After that, we went snorkeling. There were many fish swimming around the coral reef, and it was a great experience. I hope to visit again in the warmer summer season next time.

生憎の雨模様でかなり寒く、ほとんどの人がサンドバーでは少し海に入って遊ぶだけでした。

ただ、自然のことですし、ハワイは12月が雨季ということで仕方がないですね。

海亀ウォッチングでは、多くの海亀を船上から見つけることができました。

その後、シュノーケリング。珊瑚礁の周りを魚が多く泳いでおり、いい経験になりました。願わくば次は夏のより暖かい季節に訪れたいと思います。

This was my first experience in Hawaii. The food was a buffet with a variety of Hawaiian dishes, and there were even desserts. There was also a performance during the meal, which was fantastic.

After the meal, we moved to watch a show, and it was very moving. I think it's worth experiencing at least once if you come to Hawaii. Lastly, we were able to greet the performers and take photos with them, which was fun.

Time flew by, but I believe it's a tour that can be utilized effectively.

初めてのハワイでの体験です。
ご飯はビュッフェでハワイのいろんな料理が食べれてデザートまでありました。
また食事中にパフォーマンスもあって最高でした。

食事後移動してショーを見ましたがとても感動しました。ハワイにきたなら一度体験してみる価値があると思います。
最後にグリーティングもできて出演者と写真も撮れて楽しかったです。

時間があっという間に過ぎましたが有効活用できるツアーだと思います。

I am a repeat visitor. Last time, my eldest son and husband did SUP while my youngest son and I went kayaking. This time, I tried SUP for the first time, and it was amazing!
It was an activity where I could feel the great nature amidst the beautiful scenery of Hawaii! The guide was the same as last time, and I really enjoyed learning about Hawaii's geography and the Hawaiian language!
In the morning, we rented bikes and enjoyed Kailua Town as well. Lunch was included (the pizza was incredibly delicious!), and transportation was provided, so this tour was definitely a great choice. I think I will repeat it again.
Thank you very much!

リピーターです。前回長男と主人がSUPをして、私と次男がカヤックをしました。今回初めてSUPに挑戦しましたが、サイコーでした！
ハワイの綺麗な景色の中で、大自然を感じながらのアクティビティ！ガイドさんも前回と同じ方でハワイの地形の話や、ハワイ語の話もとっても楽しかったです！
午前中は自転車を借りて、カイルアタウンも楽しめました。お昼ご飯も付いて（ピザが激ウマ！)、送迎も付き、このツアーは大正解でした。またリピートすると思います。
ありがとうございました

I encountered heavy rain. I was able to buy a poncho at the shop, but the parts that weren't covered got soaked and cold (as a result, I ended up buying clothes at the shop. The air conditioning on the bus to and from was also cold). So, I thought it would be necessary to prepare for that (like bringing a change of clothes, etc.).

Driving the buggy and being surrounded by vast nature was very refreshing and enjoyable! I thought it would be absolutely amazing on a sunny day. Next time, I will come on a sunny day!

大雨の日に当たってしまいました。
売店でポンチョを購入できましたが、それで守られてない部分はビショビショになり寒かったです(結果的に売店で服を購入しました。行き帰りのバスの冷房も寒いです)。
なので、その対策(着替え用意etc)をする必要があると思いました。

バギーでの運転と広大な自然は、開放感があってとても楽しかったです！
晴れの日だったら文句なく最高なんだろうな、と思いました。
今度は晴れの日に来ます！

I used the banana boat, and it was an incredibly thrilling experience due to the high speed. I also got to ride a canoe and encountered sea turtles. The staff provided fish food, which attracted a lot of fish, making snorkeling fantastic.

However, I went during low tide, and there was no visibility of land, with the water being deep enough that I could barely touch the bottom, so that was a bit disappointing.

自分はバナナボートを利用しました。かなり速度が出るため凄いスリリングな体験でした。またカヌーに乗ってウミガメにも出会うことが出来ました。魚用のエサをスタッフからもらえるので、たくさん魚が寄ってきて、シュノーケリングも最高でした。
ただ干潮の時間には行きましたが、陸地が見えるようなことはなく、脚がつくぐらいの深さ感でしたので、その点は残念でした。

You can interact with dolphins a lot, touching and playing with them. However, the price is a bit high for the experience time, and although they probably explained about the dolphins' ecology, I was disappointed that I couldn't understand much due to my English skills. At Sea Life Park, there are staff who speak Japanese and guided us to the experience venue, so I wish there had been someone who could provide explanations in Japanese during the experience.

イルカとたっぷり触れ合い、たくさん触ったり遊んだりすることが出来ます。ただ体験時間に対して金額は高めであることと、多分イルカの生態のことなどを説明してくれているのですが、自分の英語力ではあまり理解することが出来なかったのが残念でした。シーライフパークには日本語を喋れるスタッフもいて、体験会場までは誘導してくれたので、体験中も日本語で解説してくれる人がいたら良いなと思いました。
