All Reviews for Ko Olina & West Coast

Uncle Kevin was a great guide, the whole group was nice and we spent more time together than expected.
The activities were so/so - and quite short for some. Also Turtle beach stop was cancelled while other stops (unplanned) took a while.
We saw a lot and learned about Hawaiian culture and life.
4 star for the tour 5 star for the guide

I enjoyed seeing Jupiter, Mars , Saturn and various stars through a powerful telescope. The tour guide was extremely knowledgeable pointing out lots of constellations that are visible to the naked eye. The sky was very clear, so we were able to see a lot.

This was my second visit since 2019. I felt there were a few more people than last time, but compared to the crowds in Japan, the wait times for attractions were shorter, and I was able to enjoy myself thoroughly!

2019年以来2度目の利用でした。
前回よりも少し人が多いと感じましたが、日本の混雑に比べるとアトラクションに並ぶ時間も短くて、たっぷり楽しめました！

The weather was bad (it was very windy), so we couldn't experience takeoff and landing, but we were able to pilot the aircraft in stable areas, which was very good. I think it's best to book for takeoff and landing when the weather is nice. The pilots respond kindly in English, so if you can speak even a little English, you can experience it with peace of mind. From booking to Q&A, we were assisted by Japanese staff, which was reassuring. Thank you for accommodating us as a couple for two consecutive days.

天候が悪く(風が強かった為)、離陸着陸は体験出来ませんでしたが、安定したエリアでは旋回など操縦させて頂き、とても良かったです。離着陸をどうして体験したい方は天候の良い時期を見て予約が良いと思います。パイロットも優しい英語で受け答えして頂けるので、英語が少しでも話せたら、安心して体験出来ます。予約から質疑応答は日本人の方々に対応頂けるので、安心です。2日連続夫婦揃って対応いただきありがとうございました。

We participated as a family, and we were the only Japanese people there. When I conveyed that I wasn't very good at English in broken phrases, the captain said, "No problem." Anyway, all four crew members worked hard, were attentive to the guests, and were very friendly, which felt great. The sky, which was cloudy in the morning, cleared up, and we were able to see dolphins, sea turtles, and a family of sea lions.

For snorkeling, they provided life jackets, so I felt safe and enjoyed it. However, after swimming, it gets very cold when the sea breeze hits you, so I think it's better to bring a towel (and a jacket) with you.

It became a wonderful memory.

家族で参加しましたが、日本人は私達だけ。あんまり英語が得意じゃないと、カタコトで伝えると、船長さんは、ノープロブレムと言ってくれました。とにかく4人のクルーがみんなよく働くし、お客さんのことも気にかけてくれて愛想がよく、気持ちがよかったです。朝は曇っていた空も晴れてきて、イルカやウミガメ、オットセイの親子も見られました。
シュノーケリングも、ライフジャケットを貸してくれるので安心して楽しめました。ただ泳いだあとは、海風に当たるととても寒いので、しっかりタオルを(上着も)持っていったほうがいいと思います。
いい思い出になりました。

For our once-in-a-lifetime honeymoon, my husband and I discussed wanting to have a memorable experience, so we decided to book this activity (*^^*).

The view of Hawaii and Oahu from the Cessna was breathtaking ( ･ ･̥ )♡ It was different from seeing the scenery from an airplane; we could truly feel the essence of Hawaii's sky while enjoying the stunning views, which was wonderful (*^^*). I believe this Cessna experience allows you to fully appreciate the beauty of the ocean and nature from a wide perspective (*^^*). The vividly blue sea, so clear that you could see the bottom, was like a painting, and we enjoyed the view of Diamond Head from above. I felt we had a truly wonderful experience, feeling the grandeur of Oahu's nature (*^^*).

Such an experience is rare, and to ensure I could reminisce about it after returning home, I entrusted the piloting to my husband and took photos and videos from the back seat. My husband, while piloting, was also able to enjoy the scenery and seemed very happy with the experience (*^^*). The piloting was reassuring as a strong, reliable instructor was beside him giving guidance (*^^*).

Additionally, the kind and friendly father of the couple who run this company picked us up from the hotel. During the ride, he shared many points about piloting the Cessna and stories about Hawaii, which made us very happy ^ ^. After the Cessna experience, we were treated to celebratory champagne, sweets, and other drinks on the lounge sofa, providing us with a truly luxurious time ( ･ ･̥ )♡. Thank you for taking so many photos of us as a couple (*^^*).

When we come back to Hawaii next time, I definitely want to show this stunning view to our children, so we will be repeating this experience (*^^*)♡ Thank you so much.

一生に一度のハネムーンという機会に、思い出に残る体験をしたいねと夫と相談し、今回こちらのアクティビティを予約させていただきました(*^^*)

セスナから一望できたHawaii、オアフ島は絶景でした( ･ ･̥ )♡飛行機から景色を見るのとまた違って、Hawaiiの空を生味に感じながら絶景を眺められるので、とても良かったです(*^^*)海や自然の美しさを広い目線で堪能出来るのは、このセスナの体験かなと思えます(*^^*)
絵に描いたような鮮やかな青い海は底も透けて見えるほど綺麗で、ダイヤモンドヘッドも上空からの景色を楽しませていただきました。オアフ島の雄大な自然を感じられて、本当に素敵な体験が出来たなと思います(*^^*)
こんな経験なかなか出来ないし、帰国後もこの体験を思い返せるようにと、セスナ操縦を夫に任せた私は後部座席からずっと写真や動画を撮ってました。笑
操縦した夫も、操縦しながら景色も堪能出来てて、良い経験が出来たと嬉しそうでした(*^^*)
操縦は、頼もしいたくましいお兄さんが横で付いてレクチャーしてくださるので安心できます(*^^*)
また、ホテルまでピックアップしてくださった、こちらの会社(?)を運営されてるご夫婦のお父さんもとてもお優しい気さくな方で、ホテル送迎の道中もセスナの操縦ポイントやHawaiiのお話を沢山してくださり嬉しかったです^ ^
セスナ体験後は、ラウンジのソファでお祝いのシャンパンやスイーツ、他ドリンクをご提供下さり、至れり尽くせりの時間を経験させていただけて最高でした( ･ ･̥ )♡
夫婦での写真も沢山撮ってくださりありがとうございました(*^^*)
次にHawaiiに来る時にも、ぜひ子供たちにもこの絶景を見させてあげたいなと思うので、リピートさせていただきます(*^^*)♡本当にありがとうございました。

Captain Walter and our Japanese guide, Emi, were wonderful!

This tour is highly recommended for families. It was a completely private charter. We rented a boat that can accommodate 38 people, but it was just our family of five. Although it wasn't mentioned in the inclusions, we received a cooler bag from Sea Hawaii filled with lots of snacks.

We encountered a pod of dolphins! At the "Turtle House" they took us to, there were several large sea turtles. Thank you for a fun time! I would like to use Sea Hawaii's wild dolphin snorkeling cruise and private charter again next time.

This was a very enjoyable experience of the North shore. It was filled with fun activities, excellent food, and good shopping. Uncle Kevin was a perfect host and tour guide, and the trip would not have been the same without him. Very wonderful experience!

Everything was perfect for this tour. One of our group was not comfortable on the water and the crew did everything in there power to make sure she felt comfortable and safe. Saw dolphins and sea turtles and thoroughly enjoyed the outing.

In a word, it was amazing!!! Everything was special and fantastic. Specifically, the warm hospitality from the staff, the rare experience of piloting a Cessna, and the views of Hawaii from the Cessna. We came to Hawaii for our honeymoon for the first time, and this trip became our best memory. When we visit Hawaii again, we definitely want to participate in an optional tour with LANI LEA SKY TOURS. Thank you so much to all the staff for giving us such a wonderful time.

一言で表すと、最高です！！！全てがスペシャルで最高でした。具体的には、スタッフの方々の心温まるご対応、セスナ操縦というとてもレアな経験、セスナから見渡すハワイの景色など。私たちはハネムーンで初めてハワイに来ましたが、今回の旅行で1番の思い出になりました。またハワイを訪れた際は、必ずLANI LEA SKY TOURSさんのオプショナルツアーに参加したいと思います。スタッフの皆様、素敵な時間を過ごさせていただき、本当にありがとうございました。

No USS Arizona, it seems like it is getting hard to get the tickets the companies were saying, rest was great though!

The tour was great. Our tour guy Big Tony made it exceptionally great. He was fun and very informative. He made us feel welcomed and was very enthusiastic about sharing his knowledge of the island. He made sure we were comfortable and went out of his way to even take pictures for us. I would definitely recommend this tour and hopefully you get Big Tony.

Do not miss this opportunity to gaze into the Universe— it is transporting and transformative! Greg was incredibly knowledgeable and kind— such a perfect guide to take with you on this life changing experience! His passion is palpable and his astronomical equipment is out of this world— pun intended! ;). We have told everyone about this awesome activity and will absolutely be back to a Hawaii and back to see Greg, the craters on the moon, the rings of Saturn, and the moons of Jupiter! Thank you Stars Above Hawaii for creating such a special night for us!

This was my third time participating, but it was the first time I felt so close to the dolphins. Last time, I could only see them from a distance, but this time, the dolphins swam slowly right beneath us, and even the kids who were participating for the first time in Hawaii were thrilled. I think it became a wonderful memory.

３回目の参加でしたが、今回ほどイルカを近くに感じたのは初めてです。前回は遠くに見えただけでしたが、私達の真下をゆっくり泳いでいくイルカに、初ハワイで初参加の子も大感激でした。いい思い出になったと思います。

Kinda felt lke the tour wasn't as great without Arizona.

I had more fun piloting than I expected. The staff who provided transportation were Japanese, and they were very friendly and nice.

思ったより長く操縦出来て楽しかったです。
送迎のスタッフも日本の方で、非常に親しみやすく良かったです。

I'm glad I was able to easily go to Waikele, especially since there are few one-time tours available. However, it was disappointing that a few people did not arrive on time for the return bus, causing a delay of over 30 minutes. While this is more of a passenger etiquette issue than the bus's responsibility, I believe there should be a reminder that the bus will depart at the scheduled time, and if someone is late, they will need to find their own way back.

単発のツアーが少ない中、ワイケレに楽に行けて良かったです。帰りのバスの時間で、数名の方が時間通りに来ず、30分以上遅れる事があり残念でした。こちらのバスの責任というより、乗客のマナーの問題ですが、発車時刻に発車。来られなかったら、自分でお帰ることになるなどの注意喚起が必要だとも思いました。

Well, we didn't start off on time due to an unavoidable traffic issue. Once Juicy showed up the trip began and he kept us rolling in the aisles with funny stories and excellent information about the sights. Did I mention that Juicy made up for arriving late? Each stop was awesome and he went out of his way to make it just that much more special. The lunch was some yet delicious. I feel bad because I actually forgot his real name. The only name we got familiar with was Juicy. What a sweet and funny man. I really connected with him. Glad we took this tour.

This past weekend was mine and my daughters first time at Coral Crater Adventure Park doing the 3-line zip line tour, and it was a really fun experience! Definitely one of the most memorable experiences of our whole trip. We had tour guides Ethan and Holly, and they were literally amazing from start to finish on how they gave instructions, information about the establishment and zip lining, and overall great characters to be around. They made us feel comfortable, confident, like we were all a bunch of friends out having a good time on a nature adventure, and their jokes took the edge off of any fears of heights, etc that we had. At the establishment, there’s a lot of places to take photos. There’s some hibiscus bushes, plumeria trees, banana tree, mini goat coral and lots of chickens and roosters running around. I’d definitely recommend wearing shoes you REALLY don’t mind getting dirty lol because they will get muddy. This place is an experience I’d recommend.

I had a piloting experience as a memory of my honeymoon! The hospitality during the pick-up, the waiting time, and after the flight was wonderful, and it truly was a fantastic time! While piloting, I was overwhelmed by the stunning ocean views; it was a brief moment, but it was so much fun! Personally, I also enjoyed the mini tour of the airport while moving to the Cessna. I definitely want to experience it again! If anyone is going to Hawaii, I would love to recommend it. Thank you very much!

ハネムーンの思い出に操縦体験しました!
お迎えから待ち時間中も操縦後もおもてなしが素晴らしく、本当に素敵な時間でした!
操縦中は素晴らしい海の景色に圧倒されて一瞬でしたがとても楽しかったです! 個人的にはセスナまで移動しながらの飛行場の案内ミニツアーも面白くて好きでした!
またぜひ体験したいと思います!ハワイに行く人がいれば紹介もしたいです
ありがとうございました!

There are six zip lines and a lot of activities like an obstacle course. There was a female staff member who had lived in Japan, and we were able to have a fun conversation. All the staff were cheerful and made it very enjoyable. It was my first bungee experience, and even the mini version was quite thrilling. It took some courage to take that first step, but it was a lot of fun.

ジップライン6本にアスレチックと盛りだくさんです。日本に住んでいたという女性スタッフがいて楽しく会話することができました。
スタッフは皆さん明るくとても楽しませてくれます。初めてのバンジー体験でしたが、ミニでも十分迫力ありました。一歩踏み出すまでに勇気が要りましたが楽しかったです。

We did a whole island, 8 hr tour of Oahu with Ciso! We was the best! He made the day so wonderful. He is well informed and each stop was great! I’d take any tour he does again! He made the entire bus laugh! Thank you Ciso for a great day! Mahalo!

Surf bus instructor, Kevin was very informative- he gave us info to places that we must see and foods/places to eat at.
Enjoyed snorkeling wish we would of seen turtles though. Kayaking time was limited we had to go back to the bus to head back to Waikiki. We did get to visit the small towns on our way to North Shore that grows fresh vegetable and fruits, I think the two stops caused us to use up time on the water activities.

The west side of Oahu is a great way to get away from the busy Waikiki area! Recommend for a sun filled snorkel adventure!

Such a great day from beginning to end. Excellent bus for transport. The tour operators made it a really fun day and it was awesome to see them enjoying their jobs so much! Great food and plenty of it for lunch. Fabulous to see a huge pod of dolphins which was the highlight of the day :) thanks guys

It was very nice experience to watch dolpin and snorkel

Snorkeling was my first experience, but I felt安心 because there were Japanese staff members. We headed to a spot where we could see dolphins by boat and dove into the sea twice, but we couldn't see any dolphins... After changing locations, we finally saw dolphins on the third dive! (And they were so close!!!) I heard that usually, you can see them from the first dive, so maybe our timing was just bad... After that, we moved to a spot with sea turtles and tropical fish, and had some time to play with SUP and slides. The sea was incredibly clear and it was amazing!!! As a side note, I took motion sickness medicine before getting on the boat, but I still felt a bit nauseous... I took some more medicine along the way, so I recommend bringing extra if you're worried about getting sick.

シュノーケリングは初体験でしたが、日本人のスタッフさんが居るので安心です。
イルカの見えるスポットに船で向かい、2度海へダイブしましたがイルカの姿が見えず...
また場所を変えて3度目でしっかりイルカが見れました！（しかも近い！！！）
普段は1回目から見えるそうで、私たちのタイミングが悪かったのかもしれません...。
その後、ウミガメや熱帯魚のいる場所へ移動し、SUPや滑り台などをして遊ぶ時間がありました。
海が凄く透き通ってて最高でした！！！
余談ですが、船に乗る前に、酔い止めを飲みましたが、やっぱり少し酔いました...。
途中で酔い止めを追加して飲んだので、心配な方は多めに持って行くことをオススメします。

A few years ago, I experienced ziplining in another part of Hawaii and had so much fun, so this time I joined with my friend and her daughter, making a group of four. There were three lines, and I enjoyed the refreshing feeling; it was great. The two staff members, Kiana and Liz, were very charming and cute, providing clear explanations and prioritizing safety.

There were also four other participants, and it was pleasant to communicate with everyone. The location is just a short distance from Kapolei; it's compact but offers plenty of enjoyment. I definitely want to try six lines next time.

数年前にハワイの別のところでジップラインを体験して、とても楽しかったので、今回もお友達母娘と4人で参加しました。3本でしたが、爽快感を味わえ気持ちがよかったです。2人のスタッフ、キアナさんとリズさんはとてもチャーミングで可愛くて、わかりやすく説明して安心安全第一に進めてくれました。
他にも4名の方がいましたが、皆ともコミュニケーションを取られていて心地よかったです。
場所はカポレイからすぐで、コンパクトではありますが、十分に楽しめます。やっぱり今度は6本行きたいとおもいました。

The experience was amazing. The staff was not only helpful, but funny in a way to make zip lining cool. Johnny Depp and John Lennon were the best

Exhilarating and beautiful experience. It was amazing to see all the sights we visited from the ground (Pearl Harbour, sandbar, Waikiki etc). The beauty of the island is really highlighted, including the turquoise waters and Jurassic Park mountains. Expect to have a LOT of wind blowing through the cabin, so take it seriously when they recommend the light jacket. Our pilot was awesome too, he pointed out all the landmarks and helped take fun photos with us too. It also felt very safe throughout.
