All Reviews for Romantic Things to Do in Oahu

We were overly impressed with the dinner cruise and had so much fun!!
It was nice to experience the dancing and music of several Polynesian islands. The sunset was amazing and the night view of Waikiki and Honolulu was pristine. So glad we decided to do this to celebrate our 37th anniversary!

Well run, staff are to be commended. Ceremony with Captain was terrific.
Food, seating, boat ride and fire works are all beyond positive words. Well worth the money and we both had a great time. We will repeat this experience next year as we return to your beautiful Island & Home.

You might be asking yourself if a sunset Cruise is worth it. I asked myself the same thing. I went with my wife and some family and had a great time. The staff are super friendly and helpful. The food was really good and had lots of options. The shows were very entertaining and some where quite funny thanks to the performers. Then the sunset was great. We went on a Wednesday and it was not many people. Felt almost like we had the entire ship to ourselves. Super fun experience overall.

During my previous horseback riding experience in Australia, I was able to feel the horses' light gallops, but this time it was only a slow walk, which was a bit disappointing. However, riding while looking at the ocean was pleasant with the nice breeze.

以前オーストラリアで乗馬した際は、
馬の軽めのダッシュ等も体感できましたが今回のものではパカラパカラ程度の馬の徒歩しかなくものたりませんでした。
しかし海を見ながらの乗馬は風が気持ち良かったです。

We visited with four adults, all over 20 years old. Although it was a morning course, horseback riding while overlooking the beautiful coastline of North Shore was absolutely fantastic. Our group consisted only of our family of four, but there were two support staff members, and it was no problem even for those who were mostly beginners. The riding time and course distance were just right, without any excess or deficiency. However, the restrooms are basic, so it's advisable to take care of that beforehand.

家族4人といっても全員20歳以上の大人4人で訪れました。午前中のコースでしたが、ノースショワの美しい海岸を眺めながらの乗馬は最高に良かったです。私達の回は私達の家族4人だけでしたが、2人のサポートの方が入っており、ほぼ全員初心者でも問題無かったです。乗馬時間やコースの距離も過不足なく丁度良い感じでした。ただ、トイレ等は簡易式のものなので事前に済ませておいた方が無難です。

Great time would do it again. The only thing I would change is some of the items on the menu.

Sarah was a great guide. Patient with us and friendly!! Scenery is spectacular. Highly recommend.

The experience was great. We loved the view from the ceiling and the Luau dance. One thing that could have been done better is the food choice (given the culinary taste that different people have). We didn’t like the fish and chicken served. Overall it was good.

I took a leisurely walk along the beach and through the fields for about an hour and a half. The weather was nice, and the staff took a lot of photos, making it a wonderful memory.

1時間半ほどゆっくり海岸や野原を歩きました。天気も良くてスタッフの方も写真をたくさん撮ってくれてとても良い思い出になりました。

The staff are all locals, but they first showed us a Japanese video, so it was okay even if you’re not good at English! The horses are very smart and respond well to simple signals. We were able to enjoy a leisurely horseback ride on a beautiful, pleasant beach! Since it’s a bit of a long time, it might be good to bring a drink. They do sell some drinks locally, so if you ask the staff, you can buy them, but they might not have change, so you may need some small bills.

スタッフは現地の方ばかりなのですが
初めに日本語ビデオを見せて頂くので英語が苦手でも大丈夫でした！
お馬さんはとてもお利口さんで 簡単な合図でちゃんと言う事を聞いてくれ
とても気持ちよくキレイなビーチをのんびり乗馬できました！
少し長い時間なので飲み物を持って行くと良いかもしれません。
現地のにも少しですが売っているのでスタッフに声をかければ売って貰えますが
お釣りが無さそうなので細かいお金が必要かもです。

Dinner great waitress very overwhelmed. Service so so. Entertainment great as well

It was great. They were there waiting with the Lei's when our plane landed.

Boarding and seating were accomplished efficiently, and the staff was friendly and helpful. Our wheelchair bound family member was accommodated.

The buffet appetizer table was disappointing over all. The fruit, pineapple, cantaloupe, and honeydew melon, was almost tasteless. The cheeses were non-spectacular.

Our server was efficient, and he worked very hard to serve multiple tables. The entire wait staff is to be commended for their courtesy, hard work, and good service.

The entertainers were very enthusiastic and tried hard to please the guests. The jazz performances were the best part of the entertainment. The "wedding of Mr. and Mrs. Aloha" was very cheesy.

The drinks were good, and the salad, lobster, and steak were all better than I had expected. The food was quite tasty, and servings were plentiful.

The overall experience was excellent, the people were friendly and the food was great, better than expected and they really fill you up with crab legs. Dislikes were bathroom locations being unclear and during fireworks people are everywhere to see the fireworks on one side of the boat and they smoke cigs in your face at the very top deck, gross.

Very convenient and pleasant cruise. Transportation was easy, staff was friendly, food was tasty, entertainment was entertaining. Very good date for a couple. Would reccomend to anyone looking for something to do for an evening.

There was a Japanese explanation video, and I was able to ride without any anxiety because I understood the precautions and how to operate. It was enjoyable.

日本語の説明ビデオがあって、注意事項と操作方法がわかった上で騎乗できたので、不安も無く楽しかったです。

meal was very good, show was very good, tables for two were to close together.
We meat Japanese couple next to us that did not speak English
we talked all night with help of their phone translation app.
At the end of the night they were so happy someone talked to them, they invited
us to Japan to stay with them during the next Olympics

On the day of participation, there were only four of us, so the shuttle bus was almost like a private charter. At the ranch, the local guide was able to teach us how to ride properly, thanks to the small group size. The scenery along the way was mountainous, but the view from the summit was amazing! The guide took plenty of photos at the top, and of course, it was free! There were no crowds at all, allowing us to enjoy a relaxing time.

参加当日は4人のみの参加でしたので、送迎バスはほぼ貸し切り状態
牧場でも、少人数ならでは現地ガイドさんに乗り方をしっかりと教えてもらえました
道中の景色は山の中でしたが、山頂からの景色は最高！
山頂でガイドさんが写真撮影をたくさんしてくれました。もちろん無料です！
人混みなど一切なく、のんびりとした時間を過ごせました

It was a very nice horseback riding session.
The view was great.
Maybe less hour might have been nice if you are a beginner because my bottom started to hurt the last 30 minutes. Other than that, the staff were very friendly and it was a nice time :)

Every detal covered.
Very friendly smooth sailing. Performers are multi talented and put heart into the shows.

Fun for all ages.

I went horse back riding with my sister not really knowing what to expect. But let me tell you something, it was incredible! Kali, our tour guide, took us through beautiful path ways. It was nice to get out of the city, especially cause I’m from LA, and experience the country side on a horse. The horses were calm and I felt comfortable the whole time. I would definitely recommend!

The local staff may not understand Japanese, but they showed us a video explanation in Japanese, which was reassuring. Each horse was very gentle, and we enjoyed a wonderfully relaxing time while feeling the sound of the waves and the wind by the North Shore. There was a lovely meadow where the horses stopped to eat grass, which was incredibly cute and amusing. I found myself naturally conversing with the horses! (laughs) They also took a group photo with the beach in the background, which became a nice memory. The staff immediately took care of the horses and gave them water after the course, so I think it's good to actively engage in conversation with them. They were very kind and attentive. We hugged and took photos together, creating the best memories. Thank you very much. There were also some friendly and cute animals besides the horses at the ranch! (laughs)

現地のスタッフの方は日本語はわかりませんが、日本語の説明動画を見せてくれるので安心でした。どの馬もとてもいい子でノースショアの海辺の波の音と風を感じながらなんとも心地よい時間がゆっくり過ぎていきました。途中馬たちの大好きな草原があり、草を食べて止まってしまうのもたまらなくかわいくて面白かったです。自然と馬と会話してました！（笑）海辺をバックに集合写真も撮って下さり、記念になりました。スタッフの方はコース終了後すぐに馬にお水をあげたりお世話をしていますので、こちらから積極的に話しかけるのもいいと思います。やさしく丁寧に対応してくださいました。ハグをして一緒に写真も撮っていただきました。最高の思い出になりました。ありがとうございました。牧場には馬以外にも人懐っこいかわいい子がいましたよ！（笑）

It was worth the money.
Loved the food and the performance
Just awesome

Our first Christmas Eve living in Hawaii and the Cruise and Service was outstanding. 7 course dinner was delicious and live entertainment was top shelf.

Beautiful views of Honolulu at night from the ocean, lovely food, and great, friendly atmosphere from beginning to end.

When I go to Hawaii, I often go horseback riding in various places, but the course here takes you through the mountains, and from near the top, you can see the ocean in its entirety, which is amazing. The well-trained, gentle horses sometimes like to nibble on grass along the way, so be careful.

ハワイに行くといろいろな場所で良く乗馬しますが、ここのコースは山の中を乗馬しますが頂上付近からは海が一望でき最高です。
良くなれたおとなしい馬が、たまに道草を食べたがりますので注意です。

I was able to smoothly change my reservation from a regular cruise to the vow renewal plan. I took a taxi to the port with plenty of time to spare. If I had arrived earlier, I might have been able to wait in a cooler spot, but it wasn't too hot waiting in the shade. My family coordinated our outfits, which felt a bit embarrassing at first, but once we boarded, everyone was dressed up, so it felt normal after a while. The ship is divided into levels based on the plan you booked, and you attach a sticker from the ticket you receive during check-in to your clothing. Before departure, we enjoyed a hula performance at the port. The boarding process was smooth, and our table was already assigned. The staff member in charge of our table introduced themselves in a friendly manner. The meal was a crab plan, and they brought the dishes to our table in order, starting with the appetizers. We could freely order sparkling wine and juice. We were guided for photo opportunities at our seats, and they took commemorative photos that were delivered to us before disembarking.

Since it was a vow renewal plan, the staff member guided us to a location closer to the ship's owner via the elevator. They were considerate even during the short waiting times. The ceremony was held with the busy captain, and although it was a small ceremony, it was quite lively. They even took photos with my smartphone, resulting in many embarrassing pictures. While some may choose to have their vow renewal in a wedding venue, I feel that choosing this option was a great decision, considering the cost performance.

After the ceremony, when we returned to our seats, there was a mountain of crab on the table. The hula show performed right in front of us in the aisle was breathtaking. On Fridays, you can watch fireworks from the deck. Everyone is there for that, so the deck gets very crowded. It's a good idea to prepare your mobile phone (with Wi-Fi) to avoid getting separated from your group.

Disembarkation was late, and the bus stop operated by the travel agency was far away, so I definitely recommend taking a taxi. Walking downtown by mistake is good for sobering up, but...

It became a wonderful memory.

普通のクルーズから、バウリニューアルプランへの申し込み変更もスムーズにできました。
時間に余裕をもってタクシーで港へ。もっと早ければ涼しい場所で待機できたかもしれませんが、日陰で待機でもそんなに暑くありません。家族で衣装をそろえて、少し照れくさい感じでしたが、乗船すると皆さんドレッシーなので途中からは違和感なしでした。船は、申し込んだプランごとに階層が分かれており、乗船手続きの時にもらえるチケットのシールを衣服に貼り付けます。出向前に港でフラ。乗船の案内もスムーズで、船内のテーブルは決まっています。テーブル担当の方が気さくに自己紹介。食事はカニのプランでしたが、前菜から順にテーブルに持ってきてくれます。発泡ワインやジュースを自由に頼めます。席での写真撮影を案内され、記念写真を撮影してもらえ、それは下船前に届けてくます。
バウリニューアルプランなので、ご案内の担当の方と一緒にエレベーターで船主に近い場所へ。ちょっとした待ち時間も案内係の方が気遣ってくれます。忙しいキャプテンとともにセレモニー。こぢんまりとしたセレモニーですが、十分盛り上がります。こちらのスマホで写真撮影もしてくださり、恥ずかしい写真がたくさんできあがりました。結婚式場みたいなところでバウリニューアルをなさる方もあるかと思いますが、コストパフォーマンスも含めて、これを選んでよかったと感じています。
セレモニーが終わって、席に戻るとテーブルにカニがテンコ盛り。席の通路、すぐ間近で次々と披露されるフラショーは圧巻です。金曜日は甲板で花火を見ることができます。みんなそれ目当てなので甲板はとても混雑します。仲間とはぐれないように携帯電話（Wi-Fi）がつながるように準備しておくといいです。
下船は遅い時間となり、旅行会社運営のバスの停留所までは遠いので、絶対タクシー利用をお勧めします。間違ってダウンタウンを歩くのは酔い覚ましにはいいですが。。。
とてもいい思い出になりました。

The horseback riding itself was great, but it was quite far from Haleiwa, taking about 40 minutes by bike one way. I recommend renting a car or chartering a vehicle if you participate in this option. However, unlike Kualoa, riding by the seaside was very pleasant with the refreshing sea breeze. The guide was in English, but there were Japanese informational materials at the reception, and they also showed a Japanese instructional video before the ride, which was reassuring.

乗馬そのものは良かったですが、ハレイワからも離れており自転車で片道40分くらいはかかりました。こちらのオプションに参加する場合はレンタカーか、車チャーターすることをお勧めします。ただ、クアロアとは違い海辺で乗馬できるのはとても海風が心地よく爽快でした。英語ガイドでしたが、受付に日本語の案内書面もありますし乗馬する前に日本語のレクチャー動画も見せてくれるので安心でした。

It took about an hour and a half from Waikiki, but it was a very peaceful and relaxing ranch. The horseback riding options for preschoolers are limited, but this plan is very fulfilling. We were able to leisurely stroll through the vast grounds and even had designated photo time at various points. Along the way, we learned a lot about Hawaiian plants, how to care for horses, and how to give commands. At the end, we gave a thank-you carrot, brushed the horse, and took photos, making for a total experience of about 1 hour and 30 minutes. They kindly answered all of my daughter's many questions, and she fell in love with horseback riding. It felt like a personal English lesson while riding, which was a great deal. The entrance to the ranch is a bit tricky, but it was truly a wonderful place. If you have some time to spare, I highly recommend it!

ワイキキから１時間半位かかりましたが、とてものどかでのんびり出来る牧場でした。未就学児でもできる乗馬は限られていますがこちらのプランはとても充実しています。広大な敷地をのんびり散策しながらポイントで止まって写真ＴＩＭＥまで配慮してもらえました。道中ハワイの植物の事や、馬のお世話の仕方、指示の出し方等など深いお話が聞けました。最後にありがとうのニンジンをあげてブラッシング、写真撮影で終わりですが、トータル1：30は体験できました。娘の数々の質問にも丁寧に答えてくれ乗馬が大好きになりました。
乗馬をしながら英語の個人レッスンの様でとてもお得に感じてしまいました。
牧場に入る所が少しややこしいですが本当に素敵な場所でした。
お時間に余裕がある方は是非！！

I arrived earlier than scheduled, but I was greeted with a smile. Everything was in English, and the staff were very kind and friendly. The horses were really cute, and riding in such beautiful scenery was a lot of fun. It was very quiet, so it felt like a private experience! The prices are reasonable, and I hope more people get to enjoy this.

時間より早く着きましたが、笑顔で対応してもらえました。すべて英語ですが、スタッフの方もとても優しくて親切です。馬もとっても可愛いし、綺麗な景色の中の乗馬はとても楽しかったです。すごく空いているので、貸切です！！
お値段もお手頃だし、もっとたくさんの人に利用してもらいたいなぁ。
