Oahu
Very exhilarating experience! The crew was very knowledgeable and the stories they shared were awesome. Beautiful scenery! Everything was top notch.
It was a nice experience. It was a bit crowded so didn't feel as intimate as I expected.
They were very friendly people, and I had a great time!
The snorkeling in the shallow waters was filled with fish, and I was completely absorbed.
I also received instruction on how to ride the kayak and SUP.
The boat rides back and forth were very nice while listening to music.
とても気さくな人たちで楽しく過ごせました!
浅瀬でのシュノーケリングは魚がいっぱいて、夢中でした。
カヤックやSUPも乗り方から教えていただきました。
船内での行き帰りも歌を聞きながらでとても良かった
We are very happy to hear that you enjoyed the tour. Thank you for participating. From all of us at KBOS.
ツアー楽しんで頂けた様で大変嬉しく思います。ご参加ありがとうございました。KBOS スタッフ一同
This was a great experience, being able to snorkel and see the sandbar! Highly recommend! Everyone is very informative
Aloha Ellen! Thank you so much for joining us for a kayak and snorkel adventure! And thank you for taking the time to leave this awesome review. We really appreciate that. So stoked to hear you had an awesome kayaking and snorkeling experience with us and that our staff gave you good info. We really appreciate the recommendation and hope to see you again soon! Mahalo!
The crew was amazing and so helpful! KBOS seems to have an area all to themselves, so it felt like we were on a private island. There are opportunities to do a lot of activities with plenty of time so you don’t ever feel rushed.
Mahalo for your review! - Team KBOS
We had a great time on this trip!
It was very relaxing and fun! The stuff took care of us and made sure we were safe. We snorkeled, saw some fish, we did kayaking and paddle boarding and relaxed on a floating island with chairs. Lunch was also great! Music was so beautiful and fun! And the stuff took awesome photos of us! Thank you!
Would do this again!
Mahalo for your review and the beautiful pictures! We are so glad to know that you had a great time! - Team KBOS
Oahu is so beautiful- Diamondhead is a must see but to add the Makapuu Lighthouse was an easy transfer for my day
Loved the dole plantation and the gorgeous beaches away from Waikiki fun to see the island
Saw lots of Hawaiian state fishies and turtles as well! great easy tour and quick for a piece of the day
Great night for the full family, tons of laughter and smiles from the kids!
This is a tour that takes you along hilly mountain paths on a leisurely horseback ride. The scenery is beautiful, and the weather is pleasant, making it a very enjoyable experience. There are explanations about movie filming locations and ruins at various points, but since you pass by while still on the horse, I think a different tour would be better for those who want to take photos at the filming locations. The guide speaks only English. There is a video in Japanese regarding precautions before horseback riding. On the day I participated, there were a total of six people, and one guide accompanied us. It was unfortunate that if you got too far from the guide, you could hardly hear anything.
All the horses are well-trained and follow the horse in front, so even those without riding experience can enjoy it. However, the instructions from the guide are given in English using the horses' names, such as "The person on [horse name], please go faster," which might be a bit daunting for those who don't speak any English.
One disappointing point was that one of my companions had stirrups that were too short, and even though it was known before departure, we set off without changing horses or equipment, which led to foot pain later on. Generally, they adjust for people of average build to ensure comfort, but it was unfortunate that a tall person ended up with a horse that had short stirrups.
ゆったりとした並足のみの乗馬で起伏のある山道を行くツアーです。とても景色がよく、気候も良くてとても気持ちが良いです。ところどころ映画ロケ地の解説や遺跡(?)の解説がありますが、常に馬に乗ったまま通り過ぎる形なのでロケ地で写真を撮りたい人には違うツアーの方が良いと思います。英語のみのガイドです。乗馬前の注意事項に関する動画は日本語のものもあります。参加した回は全部で6人で、1人のガイドが付いていました。ガイドから離れてしまうとほとんど聞こえないのが残念。
お馬さんたちはみんなしっかりとトレーニングされていて前の子について歩くので乗馬経験がなくても楽しめます。ただ、ガイドからの指示は英語で馬の名前を使って「○○に乗っている人もっと早く」という感じで出されるので英語が全くできない人には少し不安かもしれません。
1点残念だったのが同行者の鐙が短すぎて、出発前からそれがわかっていたのに馬を変えたり装具を変えたりすることなく出発したため後々足が痛くなってしまったことです。一般的な体形の人であれば一番楽になるように都度調整してくれますが、たまたま身長の高い人が短い鐙をつけた馬に当たってしまったのが残念でした。
The pickup was smooth, and there was a Japanese guide, which was great. The light snack service on the boat was also very satisfying. Once we arrived at the sandbar, we split into groups for those who wanted to play first and those who wanted to snorkel. We were allowed to snorkel to our heart's content. We encountered many sea turtles and saw a lot of colorful tropical fish, which was wonderful.
After snorkeling, there were rentals for SUP and floaties, allowing us to play on the sandbar. The strong winds made it a bit challenging as we were easily swept away, but there was also a fun way to enjoy being carried by the wind.
This is not the provider's fault at all, but there was someone in our group who had poor snorkeling manners, splashing water everywhere, and when I accidentally got too close, they would hit or kick me. Even when staff warned them while they were on the SUP, they completely ignored it and drifted to places they shouldn't have gone, which was unpleasant. Therefore, I will rate this experience as "good."
ピックアップもスムーズで日本語のガイドもあり、船上での軽食サービスも大変満足いくものでした。
サンドバーについたら先に遊ぶ組と先にシュノーケル組に分かれるのですが、シュノーケルは満足いくまでやらせてもらえます。ウミガメにもたくさん出会えたし、カラフルな熱帯魚もたくさんいてとても良かったです。
シュノーケルを終えるとSUPや浮き輪などの貸し出しがあり、サンドバー上で遊べます。風が強くて流されやすかったのが少し大変でしたが風上からわざと流される楽しみ方もあります。
これは全く体験提供者の責任ではないのですが、一緒のグループになった人の中にシュノーケル中のマナーが悪くバシャバシャと水しぶきをたてたり、うっかり近づくと叩かれる・蹴られる、SUPに乗ってはスタッフに注意されても一切耳を貸さずに行ってはいけないところまで流れていくという人がいたのが不快だったので評価は「よかった」にさせていただきます。
Thank you for participating in the Captain Bruce's Heavenly Ocean Tour. We are very pleased to hear that you encountered many sea turtles and fish while snorkeling. We also sincerely appreciate your valuable feedback. We will share your comments internally and ensure that our staff will encourage all participants to adhere to the rules and manners. We would be grateful if you could join us again for the Heavenly Ocean Tour in the future. Mahalo!
キャプテンブルース天国の海ツアーにご参加いただきありがとうございました。シュノーケルでは沢山のウミガメとお魚に出会われたこと大変嬉しく思います。また貴重なご意見をいただき誠にありがとうございます。いただきました内容は社内で共有させていただき参加者の皆様にルール・マナーを守っていただけるようにスタッフ一同対応してまいります。また機会がございましたら天国の海ツアーにご参加いただけましたら幸いです。Mahalo!
Such an awesome experience with great guides and entertainment.
Mahalo for your review! - Team KBOS
Since I came all the way to Hawaii, I wanted to fully enjoy a hula show, so I participated. I don't have a strong interest in dance, so I chose a show that combines hula with rock to avoid getting bored.
I'm not very familiar with Elvis or Michael, but they sang songs that everyone has heard of, so I had a great time. The fire dance was also impressive.
However, the air conditioning in the venue was too strong, and I regretted wearing light clothing. I ended up getting cold and had to go to the restroom halfway through. It's essential to prepare for the cold, especially for your feet.
せっかくハワイに来たのでしっかりフラのショーを鑑賞してみたいと思い参加。元々ダンスに興味があるわけでもないので、フラだけでは飽きてしまうかなとロック融合のショーを選びました。
エルビスもマイケルも詳しくはありませんが、誰もが耳にしたことのある曲を歌ってくれたので楽しめました。ファイヤーダンスも見応えありました。
ただ会場の冷房が効き過ぎていて、薄着で行ってしまったので後悔。冷えてしまって途中トイレに立ってしまいました。特に足元の冷房対策は必須です。
Thank you very much for attending the Rockafura Rockin' Show. We are very pleased to hear that you enjoyed performances by Elvis, Michael, and the fire knife dancers. We sincerely look forward to your next visit to Hawaii.
この度はロッカフラ ロッキンショーにご来場頂きまして、誠に有難うございます。エルビスやマイケルそして、ファイヤーナイフなど楽しめて頂けたご様子で、私共も大変嬉しく思っております。またハワイにお越しの際には、ご来場頂けますよう、スタッフ一同心よりお待ち申し上げます
Even as someone approaching their sixties, I was able to enjoy the bumper tubes and banana boat. The sea was beautiful, and I had a great experience.
還暦近くの私でも、バンパーチューブ、バナナボートは楽しめました。
海もきれいで、いい体験をさせていただきました。
Thank you for participating in the tour. We look forward to your next visit.
From all the KBOS staff.
この度はツアーへご参加頂きありがとうございました。またのご参加お待ちしております。 KBOS スタッフ一同
I participated with my elderly mother. She can't swim, so I thought she would just splash around in the water up to her knees, but when we arrived, the water was over her waist. I wondered if she would be okay, but she put on a life jacket, held onto a kickboard, and with the help of a Japanese staff member, she was taken to the snorkeling spot where she was able to see sea turtles underwater!
Later, while I was doing SUP, she said she wanted to try it too. Although she lost her balance and fell into the sea, she wasn't scared because she was wearing a life jacket. It was her first time falling in at 76 years old. Looking at the photos, she has such a joyful smile, and I truly felt it was worth bringing her along. The staff were very kind and helpful. Thank you very much!
高齢の母を連れて参加しました。
母は泳げないので、膝くらいまでの海でパシャパシャやるくらいのつもりでいましたが、いざ着いてみると水は腰以上。
大丈夫かな?と思いましたがライフジャケットを着て、ビート板みたいなのに掴まり、日本語スタッフの方に付いてもらってシュノーケリングスポットまで連れて行ってもらい、水中の海ガメまで見ることができました!
その後も私がSUPをやっていたら、それやりたい!と言って挑戦。バランス崩して海に落ちるも、ライフジャケットを着ていたので怖くなかったそうです。76歳初ドボンです。
写真を見るととても楽しそうな笑顔で、本当に連れて行ってよかったと思いました。親切なスタッフたち様々です(^^)ありがとうございました。
Thank you very much for participating in the Captain Bruce's Paradise of the Sea Tour. Your post and the photos brought to mind the joyful image of your mother, which warmed my heart. I'm really glad to hear that you enjoyed it. At 76 years old, she is still quite young! Please continue to go out together with your mother.
We also hope to see you again at this Paradise of the Sea. Our staff, along with the sea turtles, will be waiting for that day. Mahalo!
この度はキャプテンブルース・天国の海ツアーへご参加いただき誠にありがとうございました。この書き込みとお写真でお母様のはしゃいでいらっしゃる姿が目に浮かんでほっこりしました。楽しんで頂けて本当に良かったです。76歳なんてまだまだお若いです!これからもまたお母様とご一緒にお出かけくださいね。
そしてこの天国の海にもまたぜひお越しください。その日をウミガメとともにスタッフ一同お待ちしております。マハロ!
This was my second time participating. Last time, the weather was so great that I enjoyed taking photos while drinking a Mai Tai, but this time, as soon as we headed out to sea, it got really rough. I got completely soaked and couldn't move because of the rocking, but the staff poured Mai Tais for each of us. There were many foreigners on board, which made it very lively. I switched my mindset and enjoyed it as a soaking wet attraction, making it a memorable experience. It's definitely a good idea to bring a towel and a jacket.
2回目の参加です。前回があまりにもお天気に恵まれ、マイタイを飲みながら、写真撮影を楽しみましたが、今回は沖に出た途端に大荒れでした。びしょ濡れになり、揺れで移動ができずにいたら、スタッフさんが一人一人にマイタイ注いでくれました。船上は外人が多かったこともあり、とても賑やかです。
気持ちを切り替え、びしょ濡れアトラクションとして楽しみ、思い出に残る体験になりました。
タオルと上着は絶対に持って行った方がいいです。
Secret Island is a very special place for our family. my daughter got a wedding in Moli'i garden and secret island during Covid.
we have a wonderful memory of her wedding with our closed family and friends only under 20 people.
it was a magical experience,so we had been always talking how we can go back to the island.
and we finally planned a family trip to Hawaii this spring, and we have been searched many different websites which offers a tour to the secret island.
this website did not have many reviews compared to other major travel websites, but their prices were the best so we decided to give it a shot.
and the decision was the best!
the reservation process, confirmation, instructions and everything was GREAT!
it was a little bit of cold and rainy day so we were the only group going to the island that day. we basically rented the entire island to ourselves.
we highly recommend this webstie for Kualoa ranch tour!
I have been coming to Hawaii for about 30 years and this was my first time participating. There were only my husband and me as Japanese people, and everyone around us was foreign, but everything, including Waikiki and Diamond Head viewed from the sea, was fresh and very enjoyable! I definitely want to participate again.
ハワイには30年程前から何十回と来ていますが、今回はじめて参加してみました。
日本人は私達夫婦しかおらず、周りは全て外国の方ばかりでしたが、海から見るワイキキやダイヤモンドヘッド等全て新鮮でとても楽しめました!
また是非参加したいと思います。
The dinner show at the Royal Hawaiian Center in Waikiki, which is within walking distance from nearby hotels, was fantastic. We enjoyed the food and drinks, had a great time, and took memorable photos.
近くのホテルからも歩いて行けるワイキキのロイヤルハワイセンター内でディナー付きのショーは、食べて飲んで楽しんで思い出の写真も撮れて最高でした
Thank you very much for attending the Rockafella Original Waikiki Luau Buffet & Show. We are very pleased to hear that you enjoyed your experience. We are also delighted that you were able to take memorable photos. We sincerely look forward to welcoming you back when you visit Hawaii again.
この度はロッカフラ オリジナルワイキキルアウブッフェ&ショーにご来場頂きまして、誠に有難うございます。楽しめて頂けたご様子で、私共も大変嬉しく思っております。思い出の写真が撮れたことも大変嬉しく思っております。またハワイにお越しの際には、ご来場頂けますよう、スタッフ一同心よりお待ち申し上げます。
I make a reservation every time I come to Hawaii. Especially while waiting for the sunset, enjoying my favorite sparkling wine, Hawaiian beer, and cocktails is the best.
ハワイに来る度に予約してます
特にサンセットを待ちながらゆっくり好きなスパークリング、ハワイビール、カクテル三昧は最高です
The Japanese guide provided a thorough explanation, which made me feel at ease throughout the experience. I was also satisfied with the many photos taken. It seems that the snorkeling route changes depending on the tides, so those planning to go in the future might want to research it in advance.
日本語ガイドさんが丁寧に説明してくださったので終始安心でした。写真もたくさんとってくださって満足しました。潮の満ち引きによってシュノーケルのルートが変わるそうなので、これから行く方は事前に調べておくのもいいかもしれません。
It was so much fun to see wild sea turtles and fish up close! I was a bit anxious since it was my first time snorkeling, but the instructor was kind and taught me everything step by step, making it a very enjoyable memory!
野生のウミガメやお魚達を間近で見れたのがとても楽しかったです!
初めてのシュノーケルで少し不安でしたが、インストラクターの方が優しく1から丁寧に教えてくださったので、とても楽しい思い出になりました!
Thank you very much for participating in the Captain Bruce's Paradise Ocean Tour. I'm really glad to hear that you enjoyed your first snorkeling experience. I hope this encourages you to explore various underwater worlds. Please come back to Paradise Ocean to meet the sea turtles again. We look forward to that day. Mahalo!
この度はキャプテンブルース・天国の海ツアーへご参加いただき誠にありがとうございました。初シュノーケルを楽しんで頂けて本当に良かったです。これをきっかけに色々な海の中を楽しんで頂けると嬉しいです。ぜひまたウミガメたちに会いに天国の海に遊びにいらして下さい。その日を楽しみにお待ちしております。マハロ!
Great hosts and were really great about making sure that we could all see sea turtles :)
Mahalo for joining us. Please come again.
Breathing taking experience. The view of O'ahu Island was one to never forget. I couldn't believe how beautiful the view was. This is a MUST activity!
Unbelievable view of the island from where we were. Amazing experience to say the least.
Mahalo for your review! - Team KBOS
An amazing experience and the staff (Dom and Bill) were outstanding! Super funny and great guides. I would recommend them highly.
We enjoyed our half-day experience. As tourists, the Secret Island experience was nice because it satisfied my desire to do kayaking and paddle boarding. The beach was nice for young kids because they had supplies to build sand-castles, however that is the most of what my young children really enjoyed. In retrospect, most of the activities there would be best for older children and teenagers to really enjoy. For families with younger children, it may be best to buy some sand toys and head to a local beach.
The staffs are very nice and professional. I booked the snorkeling + transportation package.
The driver Kaplan is so nice, he will introduce many hidden gem restaurants in Honolulu, and I tried the Yakitori restaurant right away after I finished the tour, the food is so good! Thanks to Kaplan.
For snorkeling, the staff will guide you when you are snorkeling all the time, for them safety is the priority. Also, they will provide some rice balls, energy bars, snacks, hot coffee, and fruits in the boat. You can always go by boat when you are tired.
Strongly recommendended!
Thank you so much for your kind words and sharing your experience with the Capt. Bruce tour. We look forward to seeing you again in the near future. Aloha...!
What disappointed me with this trip was the last minute change of pick up to another location due to an event but after careful observation, that said event does not affect the area where we were at because a lot of other tour companies are picking their guests in front of our hotel. Despite my plea, it wasn't attended to. The staff and Manager were stern not to accommodate a simple request.
