The Pearl Harbor Tour was everything I hoped it would be. Patrick was our very helpful and courteous bus driver and guide, and he was an excellent stand-in for Bob Hope who couldn’t be there. Patrick regaled us with jokes and historical anecdotes about Honolulu and Pearl Harbor. Though his Elvis Presley and Don Ho imitations need a little work, Patrick made the trip quite enjoyable. I did not previously know about Elvis Presley’s contribution to the Arizona Memorial, nor did I know that the Walmart in Oahu had to keep its Spam under lock and key because it is a highly pilfered item in Hawaii. Mahalo, Patrick.

Had a great experience! Was able to contact the Vendor and reschedule time with no hassle. Option of dry or wet landing!
They take excellent pictures for an additional fee but they are worth buying!

Family members not flying, can purchase as an observer and follow along to watch.

Close to Waikiki, easy walk or commute to their location.

Sam was a great leader and the ranch was a great experience we will never forget !

Although the weather was unfortunately rainy at times, riding the e-bike through Kualoa was very pleasant, and I would love to participate again. Since the bike can splash mud, I recommend wearing clothes that you don't mind getting dirty for those who will be joining in the future. The mud isn't just from the ground; it also includes oil from the four-wheeler buggies, which didn't come off even after washing at home. Also, sandals and Crocs are not allowed, and I was advised to buy water walking shoes sold at the souvenir shop. At the beginning of the tour, there is an explanation of the e-bikes and a test ride. It's not difficult, so I think anyone who can ride a regular bike will be fine. There will be time to stop and take photos at movie filming locations and air raid shelters. The guide speaks only English, so if you understand English, it will be even more enjoyable.

時折小雨の降るあいにくのお天気でしたが　eバイクで駆けるクアロアは気持ちよくて
また参加したいです　自転車の泥がはねてズボンや背中が汚れますのでこれから参加される方は汚れてもいい服装をおすすめします　土の泥だけじゃなくて四輪バギーの油も含まれてるので帰宅後洗っても取れなかったです　あと、サンダルやクロックスはNGで土産物屋に水中ウォーキング用の靴が売ってるのでそれを購入するよう言われました　ツアーの始めにeバイクの説明やテスト走行があります　難しくはないので普通の自転車に乗れる人なら大丈夫だと思います　映画のロケ地や防空壕に立ち寄って写真を撮る時間をとってくれます　ガイドは英語のみです　英語がわかればさらに楽しいものになるでしょう

Seeing Diamond Head from the sky was amazing. The surprise when coming down was also fun. I had experienced parasailing in Okinawa, so I thought I wouldn't need motion sickness medication, but the waves in the open sea were intense, and I wished I had taken some.

空から見るダイヤモンドヘッドは最高でした。降りてくる時のサプライズも楽しかったです。
沖縄でもパラセーリングは体験していたので、酔い止めは不要だと思っていたのですが、外海での波のうねり凄くて酔い止め飲めば良かったなと思いました。

Since the designated seat was next to the stage, it felt like I was watching the performance from the side the entire time, and the lighting coming from the opposite wall was directly in my eyes. However, I was still able to enjoy the atmosphere of the venue.

If you have visited Oahu multiple times, it's worth seeing this as part of the current culture in Honolulu.

今回指定された席が、ステージ横だったので、演技を終始真横から見ている感じ、反対壁から放つ照明が目に直接はいる位置でした。ただ場の雰囲気は十分楽しめました。

オアフ島に何度も訪れているようなら、今のホノルルの文化として一度は見ておくと良いです。

I was able to see whales. I'm glad I participated. There was no rocking that would cause seasickness, so even family members who usually get motion sickness enjoyed it until the end. The deck of the boat has a decent amount of wind, so I think a jacket is necessary. I brought one and used it. A hat that won't blow away in the wind would be a good idea. The explanations from the guide are in English, so I think at least one person in the family should be able to understand English.

クジラ見れました。
参加して良かった。
船酔いになるような揺れも無く、普段は乗り物酔いのある家族も最後まで楽しめました。
船のデッキはそこそこ風があるので上着が必要かと思います。持って行って、使いました。
帽子は風で飛ばないタイプが良いかと。
解説員の方の説明は英語なので、家族の中など誰か1人は英語聞き取れるべきだろうなと思います。

I participated with my daughter, who is in middle school. My wife stayed on land because she gets motion sickness easily.

During takeoff and landing, there was hardly any acceleration or impact like you would experience on a regular passenger plane; it was a quiet takeoff and landing with almost no jolt. In the air, there was very little turbulence, making for a safe and secure flight.

We had already visited places like Diamond Head and Pearl Harbor beforehand, and it was great to see them from the sky as if confirming what we had seen. It was nice to see parts of the former volcanic crater that are too large to understand without viewing them from above.

Over Pearl Harbor, the shape of the sunken battleship was clearly visible, filling in the missing pieces of the puzzle from our land tour (with a different company). Honestly, just this experience made it worth participating.

私(父)と中学生の娘と2人で参加。
妻は乗り物酔いしやすいので陸で待機。
離着陸は、通常の旅客機で体験するような加速度や衝撃は全くと言ってよいほど無く、静かに離陸、着陸もほとんど衝撃なし。
空でも大した揺れもなく、安心安全な航行でした。
事前に、ダイヤモンドヘッドやパールハーバーなどの見学を済ませており、それを空から答え合わせするように見ることができて良かった。
かつての火山の噴火口跡など、大きすぎて空から見ないとわからない部分を見ることができて良かった。
パールハーバー上空では、沈んでいる戦艦の形がくっきりと視認でき、陸での(別会社の別ツアーでの)見学時の欠けていたパズルのピースを埋めるようで、正直、これだけでも参加して良かったくらい。

Captain Jenna, Kaiala and Dez were all awesome! Family friendly! Very accommodating to my kids! So nice, and friendly and the Drinks were wonderful! Great views of Diamond Head and Waikiki beach. I want to go again!!!!!! Really really great tour!

I read reviews saying that not many Japanese people participated, and indeed, we were the only Japanese there. It was all in English, but the staff were cheerful and occasionally chatted with us, creating a very pleasant atmosphere. We were able to see the vast ocean from the opposite side of Diamond Head and enjoyed watching sea turtles swim, which made for a really fun experience. The 1 hour and 30 minutes duration was just right, ending before we got bored.

日本人はあまり参加してないとの口コミでしたが、やはり日本人は私たちだけでした。英語のみでしたが、スタッフの人は陽気で時々話しかけてくれたりして雰囲気はとても良かったです。ダイヤモンドヘッドの反対側を大海原から見れたり、ウミガメが泳ぐ姿を見ることができてとても楽しく過ごすことができました。1時間30分との時間も飽きる前に終了するのでちょうど良かったです。

I had a great time. A very kind instructor was with us, and he was gentle in guiding my 10-year-old daughter as well. Thank you very much. He was also considerate of her motion sickness, talking to her and being very kind. When I go again next time, I would like to request him specifically. He was that kind of instructor. Thank you very much.

めちゃ楽しかったです。
とても優しいお兄さんがついてくれて、10歳の娘にも優しく指導してくれて、有難うございました。飛行機酔いも気にしてくれて、いろいろ話しかけてくれたり、優しかったです。
次回行く時は、指名したいと思います。そのぐらい、優しい教官でした。
有難うございました。

It was all in English, so I was really disappointed that I couldn't understand the staff's explanations. I was looking forward to the experience, but it felt a bit lacking.

全て英語だったので、スタッフの説明が全く分からなかったので残念。
折角の体験をタ楽しみにしていたのですが、少し物足りなかった。

It was a very enjoyable 90 minutes, filled with thrilling moments unique to the circus and scenes where the clowns interacted with the audience to make them laugh, all combined with a storyline.

サーカス特有のハラハラする場面とピエロ的にお客さんをいじって笑わせる場面もあって、ストーリー性も相まって、非常に楽しい90分間でした。

Parasailing was a lot of fun, and it was great that they let us drive the boat and fly as a family of four. However, I requested photos for $40, and in the end, the data transfer to my smartphone didn't go well, so I received an SD card instead. Unfortunately, the SD card has an error, and I can't check the data at the moment. It's really disappointing not to have any photos from such a fun experience. Since I was returning home the next morning, there was nothing more I could do, and I had to go back. I'm really sad about it...

パラセーリングはとても楽しくて、ボートを運転させてくれたり、４人家族で飛ばせてくれたりと最高だったのですが、、、
写真を40ドルでお願いし、最後スマホへデータ移行がうまくいかず、SDカードをもらいました。しかし、SDカードエラーになってしまい、今のところデータが確認できていません。とても楽しかった体験なだけに、写真が残らないのが残念でなりません。
翌日朝から帰国だったので、もうどうすることも出来ず帰国しました。
悲しいです。。

First, I made a mistake and booked the wrong date, realizing it the day before and requesting assistance. They responded immediately, and I was able to go the next day without any issues, which was very helpful. It was reassuring that there were staff members who could communicate in Japanese.

As for the pool itself, perhaps due to the limited number of staff, half of the attractions were closed. That's unfortunate...

That said, I was still able to have a fun time.

まずは自分のミスで予約日を間違ってしまい、前日に気づき対応を依頼。
すぐに対応していただき、翌日無事にいく事が出来た事はとても助かりました。
日本語対応が出来るかたもいて、安心できます。

プール自体ですが、スタッフが少ないためかアトラクションが半分はClose.　
残念です。。。

とはいえ、楽しい時間を過ごす事は出来ました。

Well worth the money. I would highly recommend Dolphin Quest to any animal lover. An experience you will find hard to match.

It was truly a wonderful show, and just being able to see this made my trip to Hawaii worthwhile! My elderly mother and my 10-year-old daughter both enjoyed it very much, and I recommend it to people of all ages!

本当に素晴らしいショーで、これを観られただけでもハワイに来た甲斐があったなと思えるほどでした！
高齢の母も10歳の娘もとても楽しんでおり、全世代の方におすすめです！

I had a buggy experience, and it was fun. The instructor was kind, which was great. However, the Japanese explanation was only in a video showing how to ride, and after that, everything was in English. I think it would be fine for those who understand English to some extent, but I only understood it vaguely.

It started pouring rain halfway through, and the road flooded, so the bus couldn't return. We were stuck at Kualoa Ranch for several hours. Fortunately, there was a staff member who spoke Japanese, so I was able to understand the situation. It's best to go on a day with good weather.

バギー体験をしましたが、楽しく、インストラクターの方も親切で良かったのですが、日本語の説明は動画で乗り方を見ただけで、あとはずっと英語なので、ある程度英語がわかる方なら問題ないかと思います。なんとなくしかわかりませんでした。
途中からどしゃ降りになり、道が浸水してバスが戻れなかったので、クアロアランチで何時間も拘束されました。この際は日本語を話せるスタッフの方がいたので、何とか状況はわかりました。天気が良い日に行くべきです。

The explanations in Japanese were very helpful for those in Japan. Despite the unfortunate cloudy and cold weather, I went snorkeling and had a great time. I think I could have enjoyed it even more if the weather had been sunnier. Overall, I was satisfied with the tour thanks to the consistently kind service.

日本の方向けに日本語の説明もあってとても親切でした。
あいにくの曇りで寒かった点を除けば、シュノーケリングをしましたが、楽しかったです。もっと晴れたタイミングだったらもっと楽しめたと思います。終始、親切な対応をしていただけて満足なツアーでした。

I participated with my 11-year-old son. There were two instructors who cheerfully energized the atmosphere. However, since my son doesn't understand any English, he was treated equally to the other customers, which left him feeling quite lost. The safety measures were excellent, and the zip line was long and felt great.

11歳の息子と二人で参加しました。
インストラクターさん二人いて、陽気に場を盛り上げてました。
ただ英語が全く分からない息子にも他の利用客さんとある意味平等に扱うので、息子は何がなにやらって感じでした。
安全対策はバッチリで、ジップライン長くて気持ちよかったです。

This was the one excursion that I was looking forward to during my visit. It did not disappoint! Sure the weather could have been better, but the sandbar was just beautiful. The entire staff team was amazing , welcoming, fun, attentive and entertaining. I would highly recommend this sandbar tour and especially this crew.

I felt better than I imagined, and I want to ride again. Thank you very much. I was scared at first, but it was okay.

想像以上に気分が良くなりました、また乗りたいです。ありがとうございました。最初は怖かったですが大丈夫でした

I think you can swim from the morning in the summer, but the mornings in March are still cold and tough. However, once the sun comes out, it's not that cold, so it might be better to swim in the afternoon during winter. Even in the shallow areas, you can see a lot of fish and swim close enough to them. I also got to see a seal, which was fun. It was a shame that one of the snorkels was broken.

夏場は朝から泳げると思うけど3月の朝はまだ寒くて辛かった。でも日が出てからはさほど寒くないので冬場は午後がいいかも。浅瀬でも沢山の魚をみれて手が届きそうな距離で一緒に泳げます。アザラシにも会えて楽しかったです。シュノーケルが一つ壊れてて残念でした。

Meeting at the hotel, you can board directly from the beach behind the hotel, and you'll be back in the heart of Waikiki before noon, making it very time-efficient. The snorkeling time is about an hour in the area with sea turtles, and afterwards, we went sailing near Diamond Head. We also saw dolphins. I think this tour is just right for those who feel that spending a whole day in the ocean is a bit much.

ホテル集合～そのままホテル裏のビーチから乗船、お昼前にはワイキキ中心部に戻れるのでとても時間の効率がよいです。シュノーケルの時間はウミガメのいるエリアで賞味1時間ちょっと、その後はダイアモンドヘッドの前あたりまでセーリング。イルカも見れました。丸1日使ってガッツリ海に入るのはちょっと・・・という感じの方には丁度良いツアーだと思います。

We participated as a family of five adults. Riding the wind and the waves, we encountered sea turtles, making it an unforgettable experience in Hawaii.

成人の家族五人で参加。風に乗り波に乗り、ウミガメにも出会え、ハワイでの忘れられない体験となりました。

I thought it would be good to enjoy this show with the premise of experiencing it before enjoying other traditional hula shows. Viewing it as a new genre made it even more enjoyable.

従来のフラのショーは、他で楽しむ前提で、このショーを楽しむと良いかと思いました。
1つの新しいジャンルだと思って観ると、さらに楽しめました。

Unlike surfing, it's easy to ride the waves. Everyone paddles together to row out to the sea. It was March, but it wasn't cold and was quite comfortable. I was able to ride the waves about three times, and it felt great. The reception was very accommodating and reassuring. On rainy days, they notify you via LINE call on the morning of the reservation, and they were able to handle postponements on the spot.

サーフィンとは違い簡単に波乗り出来ます。パドルで全員協力して沖まで漕ぎます。3月でしたが寒くもなく快適でした。3回程波に乗れました、気持ち良いですよ。受付はとても対応よく、安心。雨の日の予約は当日朝にLINE電話にてお知らせあり、その場で延期対応頂けました。

It's not as big of a facility as I thought. There are few free deck chairs available. The slide tubes are narrow, so if you lift your head, you could get injured. The FlowRider was under maintenance, and there was no explanation from the staff. If I had known in advance, I would have chosen a different ticket. The free drinks are only cold beverages. I don't think I'll come back a second time.

思った程、大きな施設ではない。無料デッキチェアの数は少ない。スライダーのチューブは狭いので頭を上げると怪我をします。フローライダーはメンテナンス中で体験出来ず、施設の方も説明なし。事前に知っていれば他のチケットにしたかった。フリードリンクは冷たい飲み物のみ。2度目は無いと思います

The path has almost no shade and goes straight up. The last set of stairs now has a detour, which is reassuring. It took about 45 minutes to climb and 30 minutes to descend for a fourth grader.

日陰は、ほぼ無く細い道をひたすら登ります。
最後の階段は迂回路が出来たので安心です
小学生4年生で登り45分程度、下り30分程度でした

I was able to spend a special day. It was my first time riding in a buggy, but since I was driving while breathing in the fresh air, I didn't get motion sickness and was able to enjoy sightseeing! The guides were truly wonderful people, and I felt deep down that I was glad to be here. I was really happy to see views that I can't see in Japan. This is definitely a tour I want to go on again when I come back to Hawaii!

特別な一日を過ごすことができました。
バギーに乗ること自体初めてでしたが、外の空気を吸いながらの運転だったので酔うこともなく楽しんで観光できました！
ガイドの方も本当に素敵な方達でここにきてよかったと心の底から思いました。
日本では見ることのできない景色を見ることができ、本当によかったです。
またハワイに来た際には絶対に行きたいツアーです！
