All Reviews for Top Places to Visit in Oahu

Enjoyed the sandbar, the music, the crew, the ambiance, everything except the snorkeling - tide too low - did not need the mask (which was leaking anyway) to see the fishes. Loved everything else.

We truly enjoyed this 2 hour UTV tour with our witty guide. Fantastic nature, enough time for some history and photos. Would definitely recommend this tour.

We had the best time. Loved everything about it. Our tour guy Jonah was amazing and very knowledgeable. Took our time since we were a smaller group. The diamond head hike was a bit harder than we thought with the baby but we took our time and made it up there. What a beautiful view!! It was worth it!!! Do not regret anything about this tour! It was amazing!!! The dole whip ice cream was amazing. The Lenard’s malasada was amazing too. Saw a few turtles and the food trucks was so delicious. We really enjoyed our time on this tour and we totally recommend to do this tour if you’re ever in Oahu Hawaii!!!

We really enjoyed our dinner cruise. The food was delicious, service was great, live performance entertainment was amazing, and the view was spectacular!

Aloha World
We thoroughly enjoyed our Night Cruise into Happiness last night with the Star of Honolulu crew and amazing entertainment
We did this cruise 41 years ago and it was just amazing then and spectacular now! The steak and lobster with the attentive crew made for a flawless experience! The main singer carried your spirit to the best times. We also loved the smooth jazz music Finally the Hawaiian dancers made us feel like true Ohana ❤️
Mahalo for another superb evening

Kualoa Ranch is clearly the best choice for outdoor adventures in Oahu. So much fun from start to finish! The farm, jungle, and movie locations tours were spectacular. Mahalo

The fun really starts when you get on the nice air conditioned bus. Our host on the bus was hilarious all the way to our destination. The show is in a wetnwild but honestly I forgot about half way to the beginning of the show. The food was good and the dancers were better. The chief was also a funny man and although you do get this amazing entertainment, you also get a little bit of history of the people of the islands. Overall it was a great show. We even got a souvenir

I wish I could have received more detailed information about Haleiwa Town, such as maps and travel time distribution. We did a quick tour around the town, but the explanations and movements were fast, and before I knew it, we had free time, which made me a bit flustered. However, seeing how quickly the parking lot filled up with cars by noon made me understand the urgency. Thank you for your help.

ハレイワタウンの詳しい情報を　地図や移動時間の配分など伺えたらよかったなあ　と少し思いました　現地の町中を1周してくださいましたが　説明や移動が速くあっという間に自由行動となり　慌てました。　ですが　昼にはたくさんの車があつまりあっという間に駐車場は混雑しているのを見ると慌てていらっしゃるのも理解できました。お世話になりました

This tour was TOP NOTCH. The van was clean and comfortable and all of the places stopped along the tour were awesome. It was a fun filled day! We loved that this tour was a small group on an uncrowded, cool, comfortable van. Our tour guide, Alan, was super informative, easy going and hilarious. His approach, information and personality put this tour over the top for us. The cost for this tour was higher than the bus tour we booked with a different company but it was 100% worth it!

I experienced a 2-hour horseback riding course. It was my first time riding, but the horses were very smart, so I was able to enjoy the experience without any particular anxiety. The staff primarily spoke English, but they were very accommodating, so I felt safe and had fun. They also took photos with my smartphone along the way, which made for great memories!

2時間の乗馬コースを体験しました。
初めての乗馬でしたが、馬たちがとても賢いので、特に不安もなく体験できました。
スタッフの方は基本的に英語ですが、しっかりと対応してくださるので、安心して楽しめます。
途中にスマホで写真も撮ってもらえるので思い出になります！

I was very excited for this event and it actually far exceeded my expectations. The ride to the sand bar was pretty quick however I wish it was longer because they had an amaaaazing live band. Kaawa Entertainment. I could listen to them forever. Unfortunately, we reached our destination, and I could no longer listen to them. However, playing in the sandbar was soooo much fun. I thoroughly enjoyed the kayaking and paddle boarding. They also had snorkeling which I didn't enjoy as much. But my wife really loved the snorkeling. The staff was extremely friendly and helpful. My wife and I both had trouble steering the paddle board initially and we were out of bounds. But the staff was very nice about it and helped us back in bounds. The sandbar is so amazing where you're in the middle of the ocean yet you are walking on sand. There were no waves so it was pretty easy to maneuver around. I could've stayed there for hours longer but the event was over. 10 stars out of 5. If you go please tip the staff and entertainment a looot. They really made the experience sooo much more fun. Highlight of our 8 day trip to Hawaii.

Although it was rainy at Kualoa, the weather here was great, and the staff were wonderful too. We were able to see many sea turtles, and I'm grateful to the staff.

クアロアは雨でしたが、こちらは天気も良く最高（スタッフも）でした。ウミガメも沢山見られてスタッフに感謝です。

I had two hours, so I was able to fully enjoy it. It was thrilling and a lot of fun! I think anyone who usually drives will have no problem driving here. I recommend wearing clothes that you don't mind getting a little dirty. While you won't get completely muddy, you will get dusty. Also, there are a few spots that are similar to Splash Mountain, and my eco bag got dirty.

2時間あったのでたっぷり満喫できました。スリルがあってとても楽しかったです！普段運転している方なら問題なく運転できると思います。
服はやはり多少汚れても気にならないものが良いと思います。泥だらけになるわけではありませんが、砂埃で汚れます。あと、スプラッシュマウンテンみたいになるところが何箇所かあり、エコバッグは汚れてました。

The movie tour was fantastic! It was beautiful and interesting. The tour guide was entertaining and engaging!
It was interesting to walk through the old WW II bunker and to hear the history of the area.
Thank you for a great experience!

The pickup from the hotel and the option to choose activities at Kailua Beach were great. Instead of going into town, the kids chose to rent beach items. We got a large float, but it wasn't very useful in the actual sea. The ocean was beautiful, and we were taken back to town, so overall it was good, but the tour felt a bit pricey. It would have been even better if there was a shuttle service from Kailua Beach to Lanikai Beach.

ホテルでピックアップしていただき、カイルアビーチでのオプションを選ぶという内容。子供は街に行くのでは無く、ビーチアイテムレンタルを選択。大きな浮き輪だったのですが、実際の海ではあまり使えるものではなかったです。
海が綺麗だったのと、街まで送っていただけたたので、結果良かったのですが、ツアーの企画としては、少し高い印象。
カイルアビーチからラニカイビーチまでの送迎ありとかにしていただけたら。もっと良かったかもです。

Mr. Dan and Ms. Chieko were very kind and attentive, making it easy to participate with peace of mind. I was able to see many different types of fish in the beautiful sea, which was very soothing.

ダンさん、チエコさんのお二人がとても親切丁寧で安心して参加することができました。美しい海でたくさんの種類の魚を見ることができ癒やされました。

Great experience. Tour driver Cindy was very knowlegeable and accommodating.

I had a wonderful time that perfectly matched the image of Hawaii!

During snorkeling, I was able to see a sea turtle. I regretted not having a waterproof case for my smartphone to capture the moment, but it was truly moving to see it up close.

Although the number of stand-up paddleboards was limited, the staff was considerate and checked in with those using them for a long time. I felt it was great how they ensured everyone could enjoy themselves!

It seems that the sandbar doesn't appear depending on the tide, so I recommend checking the low tide times in advance before making a reservation.

これぞハワイというイメージ通りで素敵な時間を過ごすことが出来ました！

シュノーケリングではウミガメを見ることが出来ました。
スマホの防水ケースを持っていれば撮影できたのに...と少し後悔しましたが、間近に見ることができてとても感動的でした。
サップの数も限られていましたが、スタッフの方が気を利かせて長時間使用している方に声掛けしてくれました。全員が楽しめるよう配慮されていて、素晴らしいと感じました！

潮位によってはサンドバーは出ないらしいので、干潮の時間を予め調べたうえで予約することをお勧めします。

Great guides! Loved their photo and video skills, it make for a fun afternoon in such a beautiful place. I’m not a big Jurassic park fan so I liked that they shared stories about the land, then history etc. I actually would have like to have learned more. Overall beautiful breath taking views, totally worth it! 2 hours just didn’t seem long enough

The visit to Arizona and Missouri memorial is with mix feelings… over all, I am proud to be called an American ..

We were blessed with very nice weather and felt the impressive submarine and pleasant sea breeze as we moved towards the submarine. Everything was wonderful! It was the best dream-like experience! Both my mother and child were very satisfied, and after getting off, they were excited, saying, "We saw sea turtles! There were so many fish!"

It was a unique world, different from regular snorkeling, almost like a movie. The explanations were in English, delivered by a lively and entertaining host, while my mother and child enjoyed the commentary in Japanese that they had downloaded in advance.

This is a tour that I definitely recommend trying at least once!

とても良い気候に恵まれ、迫力のある潜水艦と気持ちの良いシーブリーズを感じながら潜水艦へと移動する船。
すべてが気持ちよかったです！最高の夢のような体験でした！
母も子供も大満足で、降りた後も海亀に会えたね！お魚さんたち沢山いたね！と興奮していました(^^)
貴重なシュノーケリングとはまた違う映画のような世界でした。
説明は英語でお姉さんの迫力あり、笑いありの楽しいホストと、母と子供は事前にダウンロードしておいた日本語音声で解説を楽しんでいました。
ぜひ一度は乗ってみてほしい、体験してほしいツアーでした！

I experienced the buggy ride. There is a lot of dust on the off-road, but you can borrow goggles, a cloth mask, and a helmet, so it's not a problem. However, your clothes will get covered in dust, so it's a good idea to bring a change of clothes. Shoes are a must, but shorts are okay. Just be prepared to get muddy if it rains.

The route is dotted with beautiful nature and movie set locations, and you can see cows, horses, and chickens on the ranch. Above all, I enjoyed the beauty of the mountains that can only be found here. The guide's witty explanations made the trip even more enjoyable, so having some English skills will double your enjoyment.

I signed up for a tour that included round-trip transportation from the hotel, but there was some free time before and after, so I wish I had brought gear for water play and a swimsuit to enjoy the nearby beach. There is a beautiful shallow sea where you can do some snorkeling.

バギーを体験しました。オフロードで埃が舞いますが、ゴーグルと布マスク、ヘルメットを借りられるので、問題ありません。
ただし、服は埃だらけになるので着替えを持参すると良いです。
靴は必須ですが半ズボンでもOKです。
ただし雨の時は泥だらけになることを覚悟したほうがよさそうです。
ルートには大自然と映画ロケのセットが点在し、牧場の牛馬鶏を見ることが出来ますが、なんといってもここにしかない山々の美しさを楽しめました。
ガイドのウイットのある説明はさらに旅を楽しめてくれますので、英語力があると楽しみの倍増します。
今回はホテル往復をセットにしたツアーで申し込みましたが、前後の時間が空きますので、近くの海岸で水遊びできる道具や水着を持参すればよかったです。遠浅でちょっとしたシュノーケリングをできるきれいな海があります。

This cruise was amazing, the whole crew were very nice and patient, the sandbar is incredible. I was traveling with my whole family: a toddler and elderly people and they all enjoyed it, fully recommend it!!

This was one of the best experiences I had while vacationing on Oahu. The bay is absolutely beautiful and it was so much fun to explore. However, The band and the crew are really what made the experience. The band was excellent, and the crew members were all so kind and helpful. It seemed like everyone working on the boat was genuinely happy to be there. Being in their presence helped me understand the “aloha spirit” a little bit more. Thank you so much for a beautiful day!

There were no Japanese staff, but I felt reassured because there was a Japanese video explaining the precautions. It was wonderful to take a leisurely two-hour tour around the vast area that served as a filming location for Jurassic Park, and horseback riding while looking at the ocean was the best.

日本人スタッフはいませんが、注意事項を説明する日本語ビデオがあったので安心でした。ジュラシックパークなどのロケ地になった広大な地を2時間掛けてゆっくりと周り、海を眺めながらの乗馬は最高でした。

This tour was so much fun! Stephanie was our guide and she was very knowledgeable, funny, and entertaining. The hike in the morning was amazing and having a tour reduced the hassle of reservations, parking, etc. I would recommend this trip to anyone wanting a well-rounded and interesting tour of the island.

Absolutely breathtaking views, great instructor, well trained horses and an overall amazing time :)

I saw the show for the first time in 30 years. The show had a storyline and felt completely different. The cast was large and their professionalism was impressive, which really moved me. I will definitely go again the next time I come to Hawaii.

30年ぶりにショーを見ました。ショーがストーリー化されていて別ものでした。出演者も大人数でプロ意識が高く感じるられすごく感動しました。次回もハワイに来る時は是非行きます。

The team was super patient from the start. They gave us a check in call since we got a bit lost after parking. If you see lifeguard stand 1E, head left out towards the water, not down the beach. The instructor was really engaged and patient, tailoring the lesson to our comfort level.

On Friday, April 14th, I participated with a friend in the morning. My friend cannot swim, but we held hands and swam together in the sea, and we were able to see beautiful fish, which made us very happy. I understood well that the sea has become cleaner over the past few years and that everyone is actively involved in marine conservation efforts. I definitely want to participate again.

4月14日（金）午前中　友人と二人で参加しました。
友達は水泳が出来ないのですが、手をつないで海の中を一緒に泳いでくれて綺麗な魚を見る事ができて大喜びでした。
数年前より海が綺麗になり、皆さんで海の保護活動をしているのが良く理解できました。　　是非また参加したいです。
