Our family had an amazing time on this fishing trip. The crew was sooo friendly and kind! They were so helpful when I had to nurse my baby on board and they gave us ginger chews if we felt nauseous. We highly recommend them and would be so happy to come back.

Captain Bob's Kaneohe Sandbar Snorkeling Tour & BBQ Lunch with Waikiki Pickup

Kaneohe sandbar tour was an Adventure. Thanks to Capt. Eggy and crew. It was an experience my family and I won't forget. Mahalo.

Reviewed by: Kaponoakoni22

Capt Bob's sandbar tour was awesome. Capt Eggy and crew were A+. The snorkeling around the mini pop up reef was the highlight of the day. Running around the sandbar was fun. Getting to see Honus along the way was spectacular. Lunch was good. Capt Eggy and crew were very accommodating to everyone's needs. Highly recommend taking this tour. It was worth it.

ハンズ・ヒーデマン サーフィンレッスン

Even beginners can ride the waves fairly well. 初心者でもそこそこ波に乗れます

Reviewed by: トミー

Since it was my first time and I was alone, I chose a private lesson. A Japanese instructor accompanied me. After a very simple lesson on land, we headed straight to the sea. Towards the end, paddling was a bit tough, but I had plenty of time to enjoy it. However, there weren't many instructions, so a private lesson might not have been necessary.

初めてで、1人だったのでプライベートを選びました。日本人のインストラクターがついてくれました。非常簡単な陸でのレッスンの後、すぐに海へ。最後の方パドルがきつかったですが、時間たっぷり楽しめました。ただインストラクションはあまり多くなかったので、プライベートにする必要はなかったかもしれません。

ワイキキビーチ サーフィン1時間プライベートレッスン <1~4名まで/ロイヤルハワイアンホテル>

Surfing is not something you master in a day. サーフィンは一日にしてならず

Reviewed by: モッチ

I had a fun experience!
I didn't realize how difficult it would be, and paddling out to the waves was so exhausting.
It was hard, but I had a great time.
Surfing is indeed challenging.
However, if I can experience it even a little, I might get hooked.
I learned the difference between surfing and bodyboarding.
The local instructor was seasoned, kind, and friendly, which made it enjoyable as well.
It became a wonderful memory.
Thank you very much!

楽しい体験をさせて頂きました!
やはり難しいし、沖までパドリングして波の場所まで行き来する事があんなにしんどいとは知りませんでした。
ハードでしたがとても楽しかったです。
やはりサーフィンは難しい‍♀️
でも少しでも体感出来ればはまりそうです。
ボディボードとの違いを思い知りました。
ロコの年季の入った方が先生で、優しくて親しみがありそれも面白かったです。
良い思い出になりました。

Star of Honolulu Sunset Dinner Cruise – 5-Course Steak & Lobster Menu, Polynesian Show & Live Music

Beautiful sunset Cruise

Reviewed by: Katherine

My adult daughter and teenage son and I had an amazing time. From the warm welcoming from the hula dancers and music being played to the staff. I had a reserved table with the view of the water. Beautiful set up. The food was delicious and beautiful presentation. Our waiter was very attentive. Enjoyed the dancers/performance and music. The fireworks show from Waikiki because it was on a Friday night was absolutely beautiful while being on the water. The fireworks were okay wished it was more of them but it was nice just the same. I highly recommend this cruise. We went in July 2022

Rainy But Good

Reviewed by: Pua

Booking was very easy and they did a nice job of working with us since not all of our parties made it on the same boat at first. It was not the nicest day but the crew on board did there best to keep up safe and allow us to have fun at the same time. I loved that the had live singing as well as lunch for everyone. Another plus was that there was restrooms. I couldn't complain about all of the different activities that we could do. Book the banana ride ahead of time is my only tip!

So worth it!

Reviewed by: Liz F.

From check in to the end this was well organized. We loved our waiter, how our table was set for us, delicious drinks. The show while we ate our dinner was amazing they did a wonderful job, the music was also pleasant, and dessert was yummy, the view is breathtaking. We went in July so we did not need sweaters of any kind. We did not know if we'd get motion sickness, so we still took some dramamine an hour before and we did just fine. We also loved our picture a memory that we will forever have with us, worth the price!

マリンスポーツパッケージ 選べる3種!パラセーリング、ジェットスキー、バンパーチューブ、バナナボートから組み合わせて遊べる!<日本語スタッフ/ハワイカイ>

It was so much fun! とにかく楽しい!

Reviewed by: ハワイ初旅行

I chose jet skiing, parasailing, and banana boating! I was taken from the pickup location to a boat on the water, where I participated in each activity. There were several people who spoke Japanese and a few others who understood it, so I didn't have much trouble with conversation or explanations. They engaged with me a lot, which made the waiting time not boring at all. Each activity was very enjoyable, and they took proper safety precautions, so I think it was a satisfying day. It was really great that I could purchase photos and videos after the activities!

ジェットスキー、パラセーリング、バナナボートを選択しました!
ピックアップ場所から水上にある船に連れて行ってもらい、そこでそれぞれのアクティビティに参加させていただきました。
日本語を話せる方が何人かいらっしゃるのと、日本語がわかる方がその他数人いらっしゃったので、会話や説明にはあまり困らず、たくさん話しかけていただいて、待ち時間もあまり退屈しませんでした。
それぞれのアクティビティもとても楽しく、安全にもきちんと配慮してくださり、満足のいく日になったと思います。写真や動画も、アクティビティのあと購入できたので本当に良かったです!

Kualoa Ranch Private Beach at Secret Island - Kayak, SUP, Volleyball & More

Full day with food

Reviewed by: TK

The staff was outstanding and fun. The 10-minute boat ride was informative and not bad at all for those afraid of seasickness.

The pesto chicken wrap that came with the full day package was dry, it needed extra dressing. The included activities (kayak, paddle board, etc..) were good. Beach volleyball nets and balls were ok (bring your own ball if you have it), the sand had a lot of hard marble-sized cones from the surrounding trees, tough on the feet - good shade though.

I participated in a tour with seven zip lines. There were seven lines ranging from shorter ones to the longest one on Oahu, and there were activities other than zip lining along the way, so I never got bored. Both adults and children can enjoy it thoroughly.

Along the way, there was cold water provided in disposable paper cups, which was very appreciated. The scenery was also wonderful, and I definitely want to participate again.

ジップライン7本のツアーに参加しました。短めのものからオアフ島最長のものまで7本で、途中にジップライン以外のアクティビティもあって飽きることがありませんでした。大人も子供も十分に楽しめます。

クアロア・ランチ 乗馬体験(2時間) 映画ロケ地にもなった雄大な大自然を馬に乗って満喫!<送迎付きプランあり>

No problem if you can't speak English! 英語話せなくても問題なし!

Reviewed by: りしゃ

The full course lasts about two hours, and even if you don't understand English, you can watch a Japanese video for explanations before riding. The main course is in the mountains, but the view of the sea from the top of the mountain was amazing. Since transportation was included, there were no issues getting there and back. While waiting for the horseback riding, you can check out souvenir shops or have lunch at available spots. This tour at Kualoa Ranch is more popular than others, so it's better to make a reservation early. I definitely recommend horseback riding over taking a car at first.

約2時間のフルコースで英語がわからなくても日本語のビデオを見ながら説明を受けてすぐ乗馬、山がメインのコースですが山の上から海が見えて最高でした。送迎付きだったので行き帰りにも困らず、乗馬までの待ち時間はお土産屋さんを見たり、お昼も食べれる場所があります。クアロア牧場の中でも他のツアーより人気のツアーなので早めの予約をされたほうがいいです。車より最初は絶対に乗馬がおすすめです。

First zip line experience with the family. 家族で初ジップライン

Reviewed by: Chi

It was our family's first zip line experience, including elementary school children. We did six lines. Since it was in the afternoon, it was quite hot. Because each person has to go through a safety check before flying, if there are many people, the waiting time can be quite long, and there is no shade, so you can get sunburned easily.

It was nice that there was time to buy drinks and use the restroom during the break after doing three lines. If you drop your smartphone or anything, it's game over, but everyone was holding onto theirs with one hand. All the rules were in English, but even if you didn't understand, you could figure it out through gestures.

小学生子供を含む家族で初めてのジップラインでした。6本やりました。
午後の日中であった為、かなり暑かったです。1人1人安全確認をしてから飛ぶため、人数が多いと待ち時間は、日陰では無いので、かなり日焼けます。
3本やった後の休憩時間に飲み物を買う時間と御手洗時間があったので良かったです。
スマホなど落としたら終わりですが、皆 結構片手に持ってやっていました。
ルールなど全て英語でしたが、理解できなくてもジェスチャーで分かりました。

First of all, the pickup did not arrive on time. I was anxious after waiting for nearly 30 minutes, thinking I might be at the wrong location.

Perhaps due to the bad weather, the sea did not look beautiful. It was very cold even though it was July.

Above all, I was disappointed that the sandbar was different from the promotional photos.

Captain Bob's Kaneohe Sandbar Snorkeling Tour & BBQ Lunch with Waikiki Pickup

Nice to do, could be better

Reviewed by: Michelle

Overall the tour was nice but there were a few things I wish I had known beforehand.

1 - I went in July & the sandbar water height was about at my bottom (I'm 5' tall). It wasn't good for any toddlers because they wouldn't be able to stand on the sand, so we had to carry our 2 1/2 year old the whole time. Current is a little strong for the toddler too. I was hoping it would be the time of year where the water was below knee deep so the toddler can enjoy.

2 - the only activity on the sandbar was volleyball, which I don't play. Other tours had other activities listed on their tour which I wish this tour had, especially for the price! It was a more expensive tour than others & had less activities than other tours I was researching. Other tours had live music. For the price, it should have more perks, The only good thing was that this was available last minute & they got us in which I appreciated.

3 - The food was good & the hot chocolate at the end of the snorkeling portion was great! However, like some reviews said, you could at least give us fresh pineapple vs canned. That was horrendous for this being Hawaii. Burger, beans & bag of chips was perfect!
