Oahu
Exceeded our expectations! The tours and guides are excellent. Buffet lunch was good.
This is my second experience. Last time, we had a fairly large group for an hour, but this time we challenged ourselves with a smaller group (6 people) for two hours. It was an experience with wonderful views of the sea and mountains. My wife, who experienced it for the first time, was very impressed, and we would like to try it again if we have the opportunity next time.
今回で2回目の体験になります。
前回は、1時間で結構な人数で体験しましたが、
今回は少人数(6名)のグループで2時間に挑戦しました。
海と山の素晴らしい景色を見ながらの体験です。
今回、初めて体験した家内も大変感動しておりました、次回も機会あれば体験したいと思います。

As others have mentioned, it does get quite dusty, but you can experience it for a long time, and moving through the great outdoors is a great way to relieve stress.
他の方も書かれている通り、砂埃まみれになりますが、かなり長い時間体験できますし、大自然の中をぐんぐん進むのはかなりストレス発散になりました。

I was able to visit the filming location of my favorite Jurassic Park, and since it included a 2-hour horseback ride, I chose this plan without hesitation. Although we couldn't stop at the filming location, I was very satisfied because I got to enjoy the beautiful scenery!
大好きなジュラシックパークのロケ地に行けること、2時間の乗馬がセットだったので迷わずこのプランを選びました☺︎
ロケ地に立ち止まることは出来なかったですが、綺麗な景色を見て回れたのでとても満足しています！

Due to the typhoon, I was unable to arrive on the day of the activities, and I really appreciated the quick change you made for me! I had wanted to try parasailing, so it became a wonderful memory, and I'm glad I made the reservation. ☺︎
台風の影響でアクティビティの日に到着出来なくなり、急遽変更お願いしたところずらしていただき本当に助かりました！
パラセーリングはしてみたかったのでいい思い出になり予約して良かったです☺︎

I participated with my child (a college student). Since there was no transportation provided, we walked a lot from our hotel, which was near Honolulu Zoo. The meeting place was a bit hard to find. Once we flew, the view was spectacular, and we enjoyed a different side of Hawaii. They don't provide drinks, so it's best to bring your own.
子供（大学生）と2人で参加しました。
送迎なしでしたので、泊まっているホテルが、ホノルルズーの近くで、ひたすら歩きました。集合場所が、わかりづらかった。
飛んでみるとかなりの絶景で、また違うハワイを楽しめました。飲み物とかは出ないので持って行くべきです。

The crew and the team were awesome. The excursion was truly memorable.
I participated with my 20-year-old nephew. We were a bit worried since both of us get motion sickness, but the boat didn't rock much, so it was fine. There were five groups of ten people, including us, and everyone seemed to be having a great time. The moments of going up and down were thrilling, and during the descent, they made it a bit of a steep drop and let us down into the sea, which was a lot of fun. The view from above was breathtaking, and it was the best experience. I definitely want to participate again!
20歳の甥と2人で参加しました。2人とも乗り物酔いをするので少し心配していましたが、ボートもあまり揺れずに問題ありませんでした。私たち含め5組10人でしたが、みなさん楽しそうでした。上がる時と降りる時はスリリングで、降りる時は少し急降下させたり、海に降ろしたり、楽しませてくれました。上での景色は絶景で最高の体験ができました。またぜひ参加したいです！

The guides, reception, bus attendants, and tour guides were all in English. Therefore, I could only understand the atmosphere, but it was a lot of fun.
The pickup was from a nearby hotel. The bus, which had a capacity of 50 people, had seats like those in a Mercedes. On the way there, it felt about half full. On the way back, it was almost at full capacity. Upon arrival, we gathered with various tour guests and received a brief explanation. After that, we had free time until the reception time to change clothes, put our belongings in lockers, or look for souvenirs. It’s a good idea to head to the respective tour locations by the reception time.
As for the actual tour, we rode in buggies lined up in six rows, stopping about five times along the way for the guide to explain the filming locations and scenery. Of course, I didn’t understand any English, so I just got the general vibe.
Also, since it had rained the day before, there was no dust, but there were about five small ponds, and my wife and I jumped right in, getting completely soaked! So, if you want to dive into the ponds, changing clothes is a must. We stopped at about two spots that felt like Jurassic Park, and at the gate of Jurassic Park, my wife took pictures while sitting in the passenger seat of the buggy, so there were no issues.
Overall, it was a lot of fun, and the guide was super high-energy, telling lots of American jokes, which was great (even though I couldn't understand). I’d love to come back once I can speak English.
After the tour, the bus departs pretty much on time, so let’s head to where we got off. If you don’t get on early on the way back, there might not be any seats available.
ガイドさん、受付、バスの案内人、ツアーの案内人、全て英語です。
そのため、ほぼ雰囲気でしかわからなかったですが、とても楽しかったです。
ピックアップは、近くのホテルから。
５０人乗りの内装がベンツのシートのバスでした。行きは半分くらい埋まる感じ。帰りはほぼ満席でした。
現地に到着し、いろんなツアーのお客さんをまとめて、ざっと説明あり。その後、受付時間まで自由時間。着替えやロッカーに荷物入れたり、お土産見たりします。
受付時間には、それぞれのツアーの場所へ行くと良いでしょう。
さて、実際のツアーですが、６列並んでバギーで走行し、途中5回くらいとまり、ガイドさんから撮影現場や景色の説明がありました。
もちろん当方全く英語わからないので、雰囲気で理解笑
また、前日雨が降っていたため、埃は舞いませんでしたが、小池スポットが５ヶ所くらいあり、夫婦で思いっきり突っ込んだため、びしょびしょになりました笑
そのため、小池に突っ込みたい人は着替えは必須です。
ジュラシックパークっぽいところに２箇所くらい止まりましたし、ジュラシックパークのゲートのところは最後バギー乗りながら助手席の妻が撮影してくれたので、何も問題なかったです。
とにかく終始楽しかったし、ガイドさんもめっちゃハイテンションでアメリカンジョークたくさん話すので、とても良かった(理解はできなかったけど)
英語をできるようになったらもう一回来たいですね
ツアー後は割と時間通りにバスが出ますので、降りたところに行きましょう。
帰りは早めに乗らないと席がないかも。

I have visited Hanauma Bay on my own many times, but this time I participated in a snorkeling guide tour for the first time. They secured the entrance tickets, which are difficult to book, and we were able to enter right away. Just that alone made me feel it was worth joining the tour, but what really impressed me was the snorkeling guide. When I snorkeled on my own, I wasn't sure how far I could safely go or where to find different fish. However, during the one-hour tour, I was able to see many fish that you can only see in deeper waters in Okinawa, and I was very satisfied. The Hanauma Bay I experienced with the guide was completely different from what I had seen before. I'm really glad I participated!
If I could wish for something, I would have liked to snorkel longer, so I hope there will be a tour that allows for a bit more snorkeling time, even with breaks. I would love to do this again. It was a bit chilly, so I recommend renting a wetsuit. Getting underwater photos was also a great memory!
何度もハナウマ湾には自力で来ていましたが、今回初めてシュノーケリングガイドのツアーに参加しました。
予約が難しい入場券もとって頂き、入場もすぐに入れ、それだけでもツアーに参加して良かったと思いましが、感動したのはシュノーケリングのガイドでした。個人でシュノーケリングしていた時は、どこまでは安全にシュノーケリングできるのか？どこにどんな魚がいるのか？良くわからなかったのですが、1時間の間で、沖縄だとダイビングしないと浅瀬では見られない様な魚を沢山みることができ、とっても満足しました。ガイドの方について見たハナウマ湾は、今まで見ていたものとは大違い。本当に参加して良かったです！
欲を言えば、もっと沢山シュノーケリングしたかったので、休憩をはさんでもう少し長くシュノーケリングできるツアーがあれば良いなとおもいました。またリピートしたいです。少し肌寒かったので、ウェットスーツレンタルお勧めです。水中の記念写真を撮ってもらえたのも良い思い出になりました！

It's very close to Hilton Village, and after enjoying the pool and lagoon, you can walk to the meeting point in your swimsuit!
ヒルトンヴィレッジからとても近く、プールやラグーンを楽しんだ後そのまま水着で歩いて集合場所まで行けます！

I will be simple and straight, please see my following points.
1. I booked sit down dinner, not buffet, overall food presentation look good, taste good too. Drinks are good too.
2. Service is just so so, the server for my table never gets me things I asked for, example, refill water, lemon, and my second glass of drink, I understand it's a busy task and have to serve all plates and take finishing plates away, and each server takes care of couple tables, but this should not be used as an excuse for service quality.
3. The show is good, but it's kind short, I wish we can see the full stage of Luau show, but the center stage is pretty small, so in order to accommodate every guest, they always have couple dancers on each side,
I participated yesterday on my honeymoon. I was grateful that they taught my wife and me how to use the Segway with great care and attention. The lecture was entirely in Japanese, and it was reassuring to know that it was featured on Ariyoshi's Summer Vacation. I was glad to join as they also shared local hidden spots and dining recommendations.
新婚旅行で昨日参加しました。妻と2人だけのペアで懇切丁寧にセグウェイを教えて下さって有り難かったです。完全日本語レクチャーで、有吉の夏休みでも取り上げられていたところで安心できました。現地ならではの穴場スポットやお食事処も教えていただき参加して良かったです。

The meeting place is the Aloha Landing bus stop at Sheraton Waikiki (I waited on the bench in front of the Plumeria wall). It seems that a location close to the hotel you are staying at is chosen. I had read articles that if you are even a little late overseas, you can be left behind, so I arrived 20 minutes early to stand by. I noticed a group of people dressed similarly (in clothes that could get dirty), so I approached them and found out they were gathering for the bus to Kualoa Ranch. (There was no announcement from the attendants, though.) I was asked to show my passport or credit card for identification, and I was able to board the bus without any issues!
I had read other people's experiences and watched YouTube posts beforehand, so I was well-prepared for the details of the tour and dust protection. Although I couldn't take photos in front of the iconic tree from Jurassic World as shown in the tour photos (I knew this in advance, so I wasn't oddly disappointed), I was able to take plenty of pictures at other shooting points. My favorite photo is one where I used perspective with a dinosaur figure!
The explanations are all in English, but the guides were friendly and full of humor, so even those of us who don't understand English had a great time. I was advised to wear long pants, but I participated in shorts, and it was no problem at all. Regarding the dust, the upper body gets quite dirty. I had purchased a T-shirt at ABC Store the day before, ready to throw it away, and that was a great decision.
Goggles and a neck warmer (both of which can be borrowed at the reception) are essential during the ride! Including travel time and experience time, it takes about half a day to a full day, but both my husband and I were very satisfied and glad we participated in the tour!
集合場所はシェラトンワイキキのアロハランディングバス乗り場（プルメリアの壁の前のベンチで待ちました）泊まっているホテルから近い場所がチョイスされるみたいです。海外では少しでも遅れると置いて行かれるとの記事を読んでいたので、集合の20分前には到着しスタンバイ。気付いたら似たような格好（汚れてもいいような服装）の人たちの集団があったので、近寄ったらクアロア牧場行きのバスの集まりでした。（アテンド係の声掛けはありませんでした汗）本人確認のためにパスポートかクレジットカードの提示を求められ、無事バス乗車！
事前に他の方の体験談を読んだりyoutebeの体験投稿を見て行ったのでツアーの詳細や砂埃の対策も充分にしていきました。ツアー写真にあるような、theジュラシックワールドの大木、看板の前での写真撮影は出来ませんでしたが（事前に知っていたので変にがっかりする事もありませんでした）その他の撮影ポイントでしっかり写真撮影出来ました。特に恐竜の人形を遠近法を使って撮った写真がお気に入りです！
説明は全て英語で行われますが、ガイドの方は気さくでユーモアに溢れている方たちで英語が分からない私たちでも十分に楽しめました。
服装は長ズボンで、ことでしたが半ズボンで参加しました。全く問題ありませんでした。砂埃の汚れについてですが、上半身はかなり汚れます。私は前日にABCストアでTシャツを捨てる覚悟で購入していたのですが、大正解でした。
走行中はゴーグル・ネックウォーマー？（←いずれも受付で貸してもらえます）が必須！！
移動時間、体験時間含めて半日〜1日はかかりますが、それでも参加して良かったと夫婦共に大満足なツアーでした！！

Tour driver was knowledgeable and was funny too. She knew the History and insight on the area.
The scenery was absolutely stunning. There was a bit of rain during our visit, but it might have helped reduce the dust. The staff's stories were interesting, but it was a shame that I couldn't understand enough English. There are many filming locations from movies, so watching and familiarizing yourself with films like Jurassic Park, Jumanji, and Kong beforehand might enhance your experience.
とにかく景色が最高でした。私たちの時は途中少し雨がパラついたのですが、その分埃が少なくなってくれたかもしれません。スタッフの話も面白かったのですが、英語が十分に理解できなかったのは残念です。とにかく映画のロケ地が多いので、事前にジュラシックパーク、ジュマンジ、コングなどを見て覚えておくともっと楽しめるかも。

The scenery is beautiful, and we moved slowly on horseback. The horse was smart and well-trained. I rated it 4 points because my butt hurt after riding for two hours, but I'm glad I went.
すごく景色が良い所を馬に乗ってゆっくり移動していきます。馬は頭が良くてきちんとしつけられていました。
2時間乗っていた為にお尻が痛くなったので4点にしましたが、行って良かったです。

I participated with my daughter (18 years old). Since I'm not very comfortable with heights, we chose the 120m course. On the day of the tour, it was quite windy, and we were informed that the captain would decide whether to proceed, but we set sail safely, and all 13 participants enjoyed parasailing.
As mentioned in other reviews, there was some swaying (the boat was just the right size for the 13 participants that day; I think it could hold a bit more). I took motion sickness medication, but my daughter seemed to feel a bit seasick. I was fine, so I think it depends on the day's conditions.
The staff noticed my daughter's condition and flexibly changed her turn to an earlier time, allowing her to soar into the blue sky and enjoy the views of Waikiki and Diamond Head from the sea. Other participants were also concerned about her, which was very helpful.
I purchased the photos taken by the staff for $40. They transferred the data to my iPhone and provided an SD card. Since the photos were taken from below, opinions on how they turned out may vary, but as they are digital, it's easy to enlarge and check them, and I think they make a nice keepsake. It seemed that other participants chose the 150m option, but even at 120m, there is a decent height, and I believe those who are hesitant can still enjoy this experience. My wife and son did not participate this time, but if they are interested, I would like to join again next time.
本人（50代）と娘（18才）の2名で参加しました。
あまり高いところは得意ではないので、120mのコースを選択しました。
当日は風が強く、ツアーの実施はキャプテンの判断との説明を受けましたが、無事に出航して、参加者13人全員がパラセーリングを楽しんでいます。
他の方のレビューにも書かれていますが、それなりに揺れがあります。（ボートは当日の13人で丁度くらいの大きさです。もう少しは乗れると思いますが。）酔い止め薬を飲み参加しましたが、娘は少し船酔いした様子でした。わたしは大丈夫だったので、その日のコンディションもあると思います。
スタッフの方が娘の様子を見て、臨機応変に早めの順番に変更してくれたので、娘も青空に舞い上がり、海から見るワイキキやダイヤモンドヘッドの風景を楽しむことができました。他の参加者の方も娘の様子を気にかけてくださり、助かりました。
スタッフの方が撮影してくれた写真は40＄で購入しました。iPhoneへのデータ転送とSDカードが貰えます。写真は下から撮影されるので、撮れ方は賛否あると思いますが、デジタルデータなので拡大して確認することは容易ですし、良い記念なったと思っています。他の参加者は150mを選択されていたようですが、120mでもそこそこ高さがあり、尻込みされている方はこちらでも楽しめると思うので、参加されたら良いと思います。妻と息子が今回不参加だったので、次回、希望があれば、また参加したいと思います。

As overseas visitors we were able to see and learned on what actually happened about the surprise attack on the Pearl Harbor naval facilities based on the videos presented and ships hit by the surprise attack. How the US navy base survived the attack. Our visit to the historical place was a big help on our history knowledge.
This was really great, our plane was a little late but everything worked out perfectly and the flowers were fantastic. Thank you again this was wonderful!
I participated yesterday. It was for my honeymoon. The instructor was entertaining, and I felt safe and enjoyed myself. The view of the ocean from high up was amazing, and Diamond Head was beautiful as well.

Experience was easily worth it for the money. Many other tour options in the area, but this one easily is the best for the price. The included photos & videos to allow you to be in the moment is a fantastic plus that I wish every company did for experiences like this. It allows you to still remember it without having cameras all over the place.I also highly recommend you forgo cage diving & instead do this type, it is a better experience.
The crew was incredibly knowledgeable, helpful & friendly. You can tell they love the experience & getting people to overcome their fears & have a great time. At no time during the whole swim did I feel unsafe. The divers did a great job of keeping everyone together & in a good area, and communicating necessary instructions. They did a remarkable job showcasing how misunderstood sharks are & once you get out swimming with them, it really does become apparent how calm they can be. They’re just as curious of us as we are of them.
I would do this experience again in a heartbeat.
I was satisfied with the fulfilling live show.
I think it was more enjoyable than other regular Hawaiian shows. The price was also cheaper compared to others.
充実したライブショーで、満足できました。
他の普通のハワイアンショーよりも楽しめると思います。
値段も他に比べるとやすかったです。

We did jet skiing, bumper tubing, and parasailing. The staff were able to communicate in Japanese, and everyone was very friendly and accommodating. Our family of five had a great time, and everyone said they really enjoyed it.

Great place great atmosphere. Great people great view. We had an amazing time.
I was torn between expensive luau shows, but choosing this one was definitely the right decision! It's the best entertainment you can only see here in Hawaii. Personally, I found the men's hula show to be rare and powerful, and I especially liked it.
高額なルアウショーと迷いましたが、こちらにして大正解！
ハワイのここでしか見られない最高のエンタメです。個人的には男性のフラショーが珍しく、迫力があって特に気に入りました。

I participated with my 9-year-old son on August 18. Before making a reservation, I looked at the reviews and saw mostly negative comments, which made me hesitant, but we had a great time.
There was a small note on the boat suggesting tips, but there was no pressure to give them at all. We participated as a group of four, and no one paid tips. Regarding photos, they asked if we wanted to take some, and when I declined, they responded with a smile and said, "Don't worry."
The view over 100 meters is beyond words! The waves weren't high, and I didn't feel seasick. The staff primarily spoke English, but one of the assistants seemed to speak broken Japanese.
I came across some reviews that seemed a bit shady, but the girl at the reception was friendly and even gave us water.
Good experience!! Enjoy Waikiki!
8/18に9歳の息子と参加しました。
予約する前に口コミをみたら、ネガティブな投稿ばかりで、迷ってましたが、普通に楽しめました。
チップについては、ほしいな的な落書きが船内に小さく書いてありましたが、要求されることはまったくないありませんでした。実際に4ペアでの参加でしたが誰も払っていませんでした。写真についても撮るか？と事前確認があり、断りましたが、dont worry.と笑顔でやり取りしました。
100メートルオーバーの景観は筆舌に尽くしがたいです！波も高くなく、酔うこともありませんでした。基本的に英語のみですが、助手の人はカタコト日本語ができるようでした。
何となく悪徳っぽい口コミ見かけますが、受付の女子も感じよく、水もくれました。
good experience!!

I was able to drive with my Japanese license. Along the way, we stopped at 4 to 5 locations where we took off our helmets and received explanations about the stunning viewpoints, and we also took photos. It's possible to switch drivers as a couple, so I recommend registering for that during the initial application.
It was my first time driving a buggy. Since the accelerator and brake were out of reach with the seatbelt on, I placed my left foot on top of the tire cover and drove at an angle, which worked fine.
As a recommendation, the sand dust is quite intense, so wearing white shirts, pants, or bags is a no-go. Although it’s hot, I recommend something like a windbreaker made of crinkly fabric.
日本の免許の提示で運転ができました。
途中4〜5箇所で、車やヘルメットを外して
絶景ポイントの説明等して頂き、写真も撮って頂きました。
夫婦での運転交換が可能ですので、初めの申請時に登録することをお勧めします。
バギーの運転は初めてでした。
アクセル、ブレーキがシートベルトをすると届かないので、左足をタイヤカバーの上に乗せ、斜めにして運転し問題ありませんでした。
おすすめ内容として、砂埃がすごいので
白のシャツやパンツ、バッグは、NGな位です。
暑いですが、、ウインドブレーカーみたいな、シャカシャカ生地をお勧めします。

A very professional high-quality show filled with authentic elements of traditional cultures, like how they instantly made baskets out of coconut leaves. Particularly, the host was good, that he was able to play with fire while being a genuine comedian, making fun of lovers and kids in such a delightful way. True respect to the host, our chief that night!
Since our group is the only one in the car from a convoy of six vehicles, we could enjoy ourselves without any reservations! It was a fun time exploring the filming locations while driving through the majestic Kualoa! The dust was intense, so if you don't wear the goggles provided, it gets in your eyes, haha. After the two-hour tour, if you don't clean off the dust, your face ends up completely black, haha. But it was really fun, and I want to go again! Next time, maybe horseback riding or cycling!?
1グループ6台の車列で1台に乗るのは自分たちのグループだけなので気兼ねなく楽しめる！
雄大なクアロアを走りながら、映画撮影したロケ地などを巡って楽しい時間でした！
砂埃はすごいので、渡されたゴーグルをつけないと目に入っていたいですｗ
2時間ほどのツアーで終わった後は綺麗に砂埃おとっさないと顔が真っ黒ですｗ
でも、ほんと楽しくてまたいきたいです！今度は乗馬か、サイクリングか！？
