All Reviews for Food, Farm & Tasting Tours

There were no other Japanese tourists on the bus for the tour. All the explanations were in English, so I couldn't understand the content, but I could somewhat feel the atmosphere. The jungle exploration had a nice opportunity for a bit of hiking, which was great. The tour around the farm turned out to be surprisingly the most interesting and enjoyable experience. It was amazing to see the magnificent scenery that can only be found here.

ツアー毎のバスには他に日本人観光客はいませんでした。説明は全て英語でしたので内容は分かりませんでしたが何となくの雰囲気で感じていました。ジャングル探険では少し登山する機会があった所が良かったです。農園を巡るツアーは意外と一番興味深く楽しく体験できました。ここでしか見られない壮大な景色を見られて最高でした。

There are many attractions and local foods to enjoy. Considering how much effort it would take to arrange all this on your own, I think it's a very worthwhile tour. The guide, Kanako, was wonderful with her character and attentiveness, allowing us to relax and participate all day long.

In the morning, we had a light breakfast at Leonard's with their famous malasadas, which were freshly made and very satisfying. Starting with Blowhole, we toured the highlights of Hawaii, and Kanako provided detailed explanations on how to enjoy each spot and important notes, which was very helpful. As for the scenery, rather than words, please take a look at the photos.

For lunch, the garlic shrimp at FUMIZ exceeded my expectations in terms of taste. The shrimp were large and satisfying, and the garlic butter seasoning soaked into the rice, making it delicious. (Since we ate on outdoor benches, the tables were a bit dirty.)

By the time we arrived at Haiku, I was a little tired, but we cooled down with some shave ice from Matsumoto. There were many flavors to choose from, and it looked colorful. The taste was less sweet than it appeared, and I was able to enjoy the shave ice after a long time. We arrived at the hotel in downtown Chinatown by 5:30 PM. Thanks to this experience, I had a fulfilling day. Thank you, Kanako!

沢山の見どころと、ローカルフードが楽しめます。自分でこれだけ手配するとなることを考えると、とてもお得なツアーだと思います。ガイドのKanakoさんのキャラと気遣いも素晴らしく、1日中リラックスして参加できました。
朝は、レナーズのマサラダで軽く朝食、揚げたての温かいものを食べられて、とても満足でした。潮吹き岩に始まり、ハワイの見所を周遊しますが、Kanakoさんが、細かく楽しみ方や注意事項を言ってくれるので、とても助かりました。景色については、言葉で語るよりも、写真をご覧ください。
昼食のＦＵＭＩＺのガーリックシュリンプは、期待をはるかに上回る美味しさ・・エビは大ぶりで食べ応えがあり、味付けのガーリックバターがご飯にしみ込んで美味しかったです。（食べるのは屋外のベンチなので、テーブルがちょっと汚いです・・）
最後のハイレワに着くころには、ちょっとお疲れでしたが、松本Shave Iceでクールダウン。選べるフレーバーの種類が多く、見た目にもカラフルです。味は、見た目よりも甘さ抑え目で、久しぶりのかき氷を楽しむことができました。ダウンタウン、チャイナタウンの通りながら、17:30ホテルに到着。おかげ様で、充実した1日を過ごすことができました。kanakoさん、ありがとうございました。

I got a bit bored since we stopped by the ocean so many times. I was happy to be able to sample some local food. The garlic shrimp had a light seasoning, and the shrimp were really big.

I joined the tour because I wanted to take a picture of the Haleiwa sign shown in the product images, but it seemed like the guide wasn't interested, and we just passed by on the bus without any explanation, so I couldn't take a photo.

海にたくさん寄るので途中から飽きてきました。ローカルフードを試食できたのは嬉しかった。ガーリックシュリンプもあっさり目の味付けで、えびがとっても大きかったです。
商品画像にあるハレイワの看板を撮りたくて参加しましたが、ガイドさんの興味がないのか説明も無くバスでスッと通り過ぎただけで写真を撮ることはできませんでした。

Exceeded our expectations! The tours and guides are excellent. Buffet lunch was good.

It was a tour exploring places away from Waikiki with a relaxed atmosphere.

I was able to immerse myself in nature with clear waters, sea turtles, and mongooses that you don't find in Waikiki.

The guide was enjoyable, and the insider stories about Hawaii made it even more fun. I would love to join another tour with the guide.

ワイキキから離れて、ゆっくりした雰囲気の場所を巡るツアーでした。

ワイキキにはない、透明度のある海ウミガメやマングースなど自然の中に溶け込めました。

ガイドさんも楽しく、ハワイの裏話など楽しさ倍増でした。また、ガイドさんのツアーに参加したいです。

I'm glad I participated in the North Shore tour. I was the only one attending alone, but the guide, Takashi, was very considerate and made it enjoyable. He talked with us the whole way, and I learned a lot. I thought it was wonderful that people live abroad. I also received a lot of snacks, most of which I wouldn't have eaten on my own, and I was very satisfied.

ノースショアツアーに参加して良かったです。
1人参加は私だけでしたが、ガイドのたかしさんが気を遣ってくださり楽しめました。
道中ずっとお話してくださり勉強になりました。
海外に住んで生きてる方は素敵だなと思いました。たくさんのお菓子も頂き、自分じゃ食べないものばかりで大満足です。

What a blast, we got a bunch of cool knowledge on all different pieces that make kualoa ranch!!

I had visited the Kamehameha statue and the "This Tree, What Tree" before, so I joined a tour to go to places I hadn't been to. The guide took us to spots that even the repeat visitors from Hawaii didn't know about. It felt great to escape the hustle and bustle of the city and enjoy the beautiful weather in the countryside. The malasada was delicious, and even though I can't eat shrimp, I was satisfied with the chicken katsu plate that was prepared for me.

カメハメハ像やこの木なんの木は訪問したことがあったので行ったことない所に行けるツアーを参加しました。
同行したハワイのリピーターさんも知らないようなところも案内していただきました。
都会の喧騒をはなれて田舎部分に行くととても天気も良く気持ちよかったです。
masaladaもおいしかったですし、エビ食べられない私でもチキンカツプレートを用意していただき満足でした。

Absolutely amazing combination. Scenery and guides were excellent. Bit disappointed in the movie tour as part of sets deteriorated because of passage of time. Also thought you would see more of current sets. Farm Tour was very interesting which also included some movie sets. Lunch was excellent.

Overall great day out and fantastic place that is trying to maintain green friendly eco systems and preserve area for future generations.

Would definitely go again as there were other trips like zip lining which we did not have time to do,

So very glad I booked this excursion.
This was definitely by far one of our best excursions. We were able to see and learn so much about all the different movies filmed at this location. The trips were well timed and spaced apart enough that they did not overlap into one another. The guides were knowledgeable and very accommodating. Lunch was really good with great selections. I feel like a trip to O’ahu is not complete without this excursion. Will definitely recommend this excursion to others visiting Hawai’i.

It's been a while since my last trip to Hawaii. Since it had been a long time, I decided to go back to basics and booked a tour of Oahu. My experience was just as amazing as before, and I had a fantastic time. The tour was well-organized, and the guide was very cheerful, making it an incredibly enjoyable experience. I definitely want to recommend this! I also want to participate again next time.

久しぶりのHawaii旅行。
久しぶりなので、初心に戻ってオアフ島観光ツアーを予約しました。
参加した感想は、以前と何も変わり無く最高に楽しめました。
ツアー内容も充実してましたし、ガイドさんがとても陽気な方で、最高に楽しいツアーでした。
これは、是非おすすめしたいと思います！
次回も参加したいと思いしました。

Worked with me to reschedule and the day was overall a blast and a great way to see all around the island.

We had the best time on our jungle tour . Our tour guide was outstanding . Funny, informative and we were captivated from the moment we sat in the seats and took off , until we returned back to where we started. It was the highlight of our tour experience. I would give this tour an outstanding rating!
Unfortunately the next tour was a huge disappointment, the movie tour.
While it was interesting seeing the cardboard signs where all the movies took place, there were little if no remaining evidences that any movie ever were filmed there. That was my mistake as the driver explained that all props must be removed.
Our driver mentioned immediately that he had “ deadpan humor” which sorely missed the mark. While he was knowledgeable and his information was interesting, his style of presentation was filled with unnecessary repetitive words “Also here within here collectively also here “ . My suggestion would be to work on simplifying the dialogue to keep the.audience engaged. Sadly, we decided to leave after the tour missing the last tour we had paid for.

I enjoyed it more than I had imagined. The course was varied, allowing for different ways to have fun. The lunch was fresh and delicious, with both meat and vegetables. The tour led by Mr. KOA was especially enjoyable.

想像していたより、楽しめた。コースがバラエティに飛んでいて、いろいろな楽しみ方が出来る。ランチはお肉も野菜も新鮮で美味しかった。特にガイドMr.KOAさんのツアーは楽しかった

I have been to Hawaii dozens of times, and this time, my guide was Mr. Kato, who took care of me when I first started visiting Hawaii. Mr. Kato mentioned something like, "Is it too late for a North tour?" but in the end, the garlic shrimp was from a place I had never tried before, and everywhere we stopped was new to me except for Haleiwa. This time I traveled alone, but I had a great time! Thank you!

ハワイには何十回と行っていて、今回のガイドさんが私がハワイに行き始めた最初の頃お世話になった加藤さんでした。
ノースのツアーに今更？みたいな事を言われた加藤さんでしたが結果ガーリックシュリンプも今回初めての所でしたし、立ち寄った所はハレイワ以外全て初めてだったのです。
今回は1人旅でしたがとても楽しかったです！ありがとうござい

The tour was super informative and interactive. I liked how the activities were all unique and complemented each other well. My favorite was the stop at Halona Blowhole, as I had never encountered a cove that beautiful before. Overall an incredible experience!

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

I have a call from there office they told me there tour guy was no show and they canceled don’t make the same mistake I did go a different way

Sightseeing in local areas of Oahu. I couldn't hear much in Japanese since they were speaking in English with a microphone. I was really just eating the whole time and got full.

オアフ島のローカルな所の観光。英語はマイクで話しているので日本語はよく聞き取れなかった。本当にずっと食べててお腹いっぱい。

We were pressed for time, so we almost skipped the spiritual spots and scenic views, and even when we stopped, we left quickly. I was disappointed since that was what I was looking forward to. However, my friend who was focused on the food found it delicious. The guide was wonderful!

時間が押してしまい、スピリチュアルスポット？絶景？はほぼスキップで、寄ってもすぐ出発で、そちら目当てだったので残念でした。でもグルメが目当ての友人は美味し。ガイドさんは素敵でした!

My husband and I did a full day tour with Jose around Oahu on 4/3/23. We saw dolphins, a Monk seal, and sea turtles at some of the beaches we visited. The tour also included a local chocolate tasting, a macadamia nut farm, and lunch at an historic ranch. Getting picked up and dropped off at our resort was a real bonus !!

We really enjoyed the tour. Our driver Joe was very informative, kind, and welcoming. The food that came with the package was delicious. It was an amazing experience. We’ll definitely be coming back in the future.

I wanted to do some sightseeing and was looking for various tours. Most required at least two participants, and some tour companies even had options where you had to pay for two people. However, I ultimately found a tour company that met my conditions. The tour content exceeded my expectations, but what really stood out was the fun and engaging talk from our tour guide, Kanako. It was so enjoyable that I would have gladly paid extra for it from the beginning to the end of the tour!

As someone who was participating alone and didn't speak English, Kanako helped me with my order at Matsumoto Shave Ice and invited me to join her table when I was wandering around alone. I had a great time during the free time, and a young woman from the same tour company who was on her day off even took pictures for me and offered support in various ways. Thank you for that, even on your day off. I don't get to come to Hawaii often, but if I have the chance to come again and can request a guide, I would definitely want to book Kanako's tour again. I highly recommend it to everyone!

観光がしたくて色々とツアーを探してました。大半が2名以上からの参加で1名では申し込みができず中には2名分支払えば可能などというツアー会社もある中、最終的に自分の条件に合ったツアー会社さんを見つけることができました。ツアー内容も予想以上に満足いく内容でしたが、なんと言ってもツアーガイドのカナコさんのトークの楽しさにはツアーの始まりから終了まで別料金払ってもいいほどヤバかったです 笑 また1人参加で英語も分からない私にマツモトシェイブアイス店では注文時に手助けもして下さり1人でウロウロしてたところ一緒のテーブルに誘ってくれてフリータイムも楽しく過ごせましたし、オフを使ってツアーに参加をしてた同じツアー会社の若い女性の方にも写真を撮って頂いたり何かとフォローをしてくださいました。オフなのにありがとうございました。ハワイに来ることは中々できませんが次に来ることがあるならば指名が出来るのならば、またカナコさんのツアーを申し込みしたいと思います。皆さん、絶対におススメですよ！！

Uncle Billy and Brother Ross were knowledgeable about Island history, geography, and culture. We learned, explored, and laughed a ton. We especially liked the added stops along the way. The day went quick, we were on and off the bus frequently.

I have waited a while to write this review. I am not usually negative about many things, but I honestly did not enjoy this tour, primarily due to our tour guide.

I booked this tour for my hubby & myself as it was his first time to the island, so I wanted him to experience the entire island & see each of the highlights which this tour had every stop I was looking for. The itinerary as indicated on the website was perfect ... however our tour guide, Chief Rob as he called himself, had his own itinerary. I think he was grumpy when he picked us up, and almost came across as a strict school teacher pretty much immediately, so not really a fun guy or a fun day. We did not have the early breakfast stop at Leonards, he instead decided that he wanted to stop at a different location further into the tour. So we had to walk around the temple eating this donut, only to be immediately taken for lunch afterwards - poor planning. And the north shore visit, was a super quick drive-by. Meanwhile we talked to others who did island tours, and they stopped at Turtle Beach, etc, so we were kind of bummed about that. I feel we could have spent more time with a stop along North Shore and less time at the Dole plantation ... as the amount of time that we were given at the Dole plantation didn't really allow for us to do anything, yet long enough that we were bored.

All in all, the tour itinerary seemed decent but the day we had was not fun. Actually, this tour was the least fun part of my entire trip so I don't think I would recommend it to others

I'm glad I was able to participate in the tour.

The guide, Kanako, was bright and fun, and her explanations during the tour were easy to understand. She was also attentive to everyone in the group, which left a very good impression.

I enjoyed eating the shrimp from Kahuku, malasadas, coffee, and other things I wanted to try. There were no issues with restroom breaks, and I had a great time. If I had one complaint, it would be that the time in Haleiwa was short—about 30 minutes, I think? I was disappointed that I couldn't visit all the shops I wanted to, so I feel a bit regretful about Haleiwa.

ツアーに参加出来て良かったです

ガイドのカナコさんも明るい楽しい方でツアー中の
説明も分かり易く参加の皆さんに気配りも出来ていて
とても良い印象の感想です

カフクの海老、マラサダ、珈琲等、食べたい物を食べ
心配のトイレ休憩も問題なく楽しい時間が過ごせました。
欲をいえば、ハレイワの時間が短く30分位でしたでしょうか？
見たいお店を回れずに残念でしたのでハレイワのみ
心残りがある感じです

This is MUST Tour especially if you dont have a rental car! This tour literally stops at ALL the sites and gives you a treat of the island Malasadas and local Shrimp truck at North Shore! The driver was very informative and had the impossible task to keep us on schedule. Very small group of intetesting people and SO Thankful for this option and got dropped off right at our hotel door!! Best Island Tour on Oahu!! Thank you!!

Hannah and Hayden were amazing! They picked fruit for us to try (which made the trip even better!), showed us a cave that we were able to look into, let us feed the cows and were just good people to talk with. The property is beautiful…especially from the top while eating a delicious dinner. We would 100% go back and do it again.

The Island and You tour was AMAZING. Uncle Billy was our tour guide and he was the BEST. He had fantastic energy, awesome personality, and he made the day so fun!!! The tour gave us greater insight into the culture and people of Hawaii, creating a deeper appreciation for the beauty around us. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!

Thanks to our tour guide AYC Kanako, it was a very enjoyable tour. I participated because there were many places I was visiting for the first time, and it was really great. I also enjoyed the conversations with our fellow tour guide Billy. Thank you very much. If I have the opportunity, I would like to join other tours as well.

ツアーガイドAYC Kanakoさんのおかげで非常に楽しいツアーとなりました。初めて廻る場所が多かったので参加しましたがとても良かったです。同じツアーガイドのビリーさんとの会話も楽しかったです。ありがとうございました。また機会ありましたら他のツアーにも参加したいと思います。
