All Reviews for Windward East Oahu

enjoy this tour. I got a chance to try all the activities. All the crews are enthusiastic and nice, supportive. Life guards paid attention to our safety all the time.

Horseback riding while enjoying the vast scenery was amazing. It was a solid two hours of non-stop riding, with no breaks in between. There was hardly any time to relax. Make sure to use the restroom beforehand. Your butt and legs can get quite tired; researching how to ride might help ease that. The staff members were all wonderful. The accompanying staff took photos along the way and transferred them to my phone afterward. When I come back, I don't think I'll want to try other activities since I already rode last time; I still want to ride again. For such an experience, the price was more than satisfactory.

広大な景色を見ながらの乗馬は最高でした。
2時間みっちりのノンストップ、途中下馬なし。
気を抜く暇はほぼ無いです。
トイレは必ず済ませて起きましょう。
お尻と脚はなかなか疲れます、乗馬の仕方など調べて挑むと軽減されるのかもしれません。
スタッフの皆さんも素敵な方ばかりです。
付き添いのスタッフの方が途中写真を撮ってくれて、終わった後に携帯へ転送してくれます。
また来た時は、前回乗馬はしたから他のアクティビティをとは思わず、まだ乗馬をしたいと思います。あれだけの体験でこの価格は十分に満足できました。

I enjoyed an exhilarating buggy ride while taking in the magnificent scenery and feeling the pleasant breeze! We stopped several times at photo spots, so I was able to take plenty of pictures. The staff were very kind; I got stung by a bee during the ride, but they brought me first aid and ointment, which was a huge help.

They provide bandanas to cover your face, but since the dust is intense while driving, it's definitely a good idea to have sunglasses! Your face will get really dirty, so I recommend bringing a towel or handkerchief. As for clothing, in addition to sun protection, it's best to wear clothes that you don't mind getting dirty from the dust (it gets really dirty). I had so much fun that I want to book this again when I come back to Hawaii!

壮大な景色と心地よい風にあたりながら、スリル満点のバギーを楽しめました！
途中で何度かフォトスポットで停車するので写真もたくさん撮れます。
スタッフの方は大変親切で、途中で蜂に刺されてしまったのですが、応急処置と塗り薬を持ってきてくださり大変助かりました。

顔を覆うバンダナが配布されますが、運転中砂埃がすごいのでサングラスは絶対あったほうがいいです！顔もすごい汚れるのでタオルやハンカチは持っていくと良いと思います。
洋服についても日焼け対策はもちろん、砂埃で上下汚れてもいい服装がおすすめです（めっちゃ汚れます）
とっても楽しかったのでまたハワイに来たら予約したいです！！

Had a great time the crew was so friendly and helped to take pictures and even played volleyball with the group. The boat was very nice as well lots of seating and a restroom on it. Lunch was good burgers were tasty overall the only down fall was no cold water after the first like 15 min. So I would suggest bringing and insulated bottle thats filled. Would for sure recommend and do it again!

We had a great time at sandbar. We went with three small children and they had a great time despite not being interested in snorkeling/kayaking. One of the staff had a speed boat and took our family out for a cruise to look for sea turtles. We got to see a huge turtle swimming out in the ocean and it was definitely a highlight for our trip.

The buggy experience at Kualoa Ranch on Oahu Island is truly a wild adventure! Breathtaking scenery, adrenaline-pumping rides, and unforgettable memories await you. It's an experience you absolutely must have!

オアフ島のクアロアランチでのバギー体験は、まさにワイルドな冒険！息をのむほどの景色、アドレナリン全開の走行、そして心に残る思い出が待っています。絶対に体験すべきです！

This is the second time that we Visit the range every time we do a different tour and they always exceeded our expectation. Our tour guy was awesome and every time we learn more history about the island. I definitely recommend

The dock was easy to find. There was lively live music on board, making the journey enjoyable.
Since it wasn't low tide, we didn't get to see the magical sandbar, but we had plenty of fun with stand-up paddleboarding, boating, and snorkeling.
On the return trip, I felt a bit cold, but I had brought extra beach towels, which helped me stay warm.

船付き場は分かりやすい場所でした。船内では盛り上がるライブミュージックがあり、到着するまでも楽しめました。
引き潮ではなかったので、幻想的なサンドバーではありませんでしたが、supやボート、シュノーケリングで十分楽しめました。
帰りの船では寒さを感じたのですが、バスタオルを多めに持参してたので凌げました。

This was by far the best cruise excursion I have ever participated in, and I’ve done quite a few on Oahu.

Pickup was well organized and on time. The ride out to the boat was pleasant.
The crew in itself felt like family. They were the nicest people, very welcoming and knowledgeable.
Captain even jumped in the water with the kids and everyone went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed. Bbq lunch was great.
We saw manta rays and turtles that came right up to the boat,it was a really wonderful day and I can’t tell them thank you enough.
I will absolutely book this again next time we visit.

This is the second time I come here on this adventure. Great music, captain on boat is a super nice lady. My family loved the experience, the juice and donuts are a great add on to your experience.

- It was great to be able to drive while enjoying the magnificent scenery.
- The guide's explanations were in English, and I couldn't understand them very well, but I think it would have been more enjoyable if I had.

・雄大な景色を見ながら、走ること（運転）ができ、とてもよかったす。
・ガイドの説明は英語で、あまり理解ができなかったのですが、理解できたらより楽しいと思いました。

I was nervous during my first zip line experience. A group of ten was accompanied by three staff members who kept everyone entertained while we cleared each section. The harness I wore was secure, which made me feel safe on the first try. Next, I think I’ll recommend it to my family and have them experience it too.

初めてのジップラインで、びくびくしました。10人一組で3人のスタッフが付き添いみんなを楽しませながら一つひとつクリアーしていきます。身に着けたハーネスがしっかりしていて1回目で安心できました。次は家族にも勧めて体験させようかと思います。

KBOS was an amazing company to book with. We paid for the transportation, but if you plan to rent a car I would skip that part. It is a little tour bus and there are no bathrooms and no easy way to stop for restrooms. Just take your own car if you have one.
The experience itself was spectacular! The entire crew was super nice and went out of their way to make sure everyone had a good time.
The boat is huge- it is the largest boat at the end of the harbor area- you can’t miss it.
It has big tables with benches. Plenty of room for everyone. There are bathrooms on the boat and a room to change in. bring a towel with you if you think you might get cold. We went in bathing suits only and it was fine. A little chilly on the ride back in to shore, but not bad.
We paid for all the activities in advance and it was worth every penny. The banana boat ride was fun. I’m extremely overweight and I was still able to do the banana boat ride. They held the banana boat so I could easily get on and off.
The sandbar is beautiful! It is a must do experience and we loved it.
I would recommend water shoes, but some people didn’t have any and seemed to be fine.
The captain let us go up top and took a picture for us. Great view and perfect pic opportunity.
You can snorkel if you want- they have everything on the boat. We saw fish without snorkeling.
There is some music they play and it is really a nice way to spend some time. It is just the perfect amount of time to be out there too. Just enough time to do all the activities and enjoy the experience.
Bring snacks or drinks on the boat if you want. You can leave your bag and valuables right on the boat where you were seated. It seems super safe.
There is a little store at the harbor just before you get in the boat that sells alcohol and sunscreen and other items you may want.
The crew was super friendly and really tried to make it fun and make you feel welcome.
Bring tip money for the crew and for the band.

If you're considering this cruise I highly recommend you book it. The day we went out the weather wasn't the greatest however, the crew more than made up for that. They are fun, engaging and knowledgable. We had a blast the entire day. Lunch was really good and we had a very enjoyable time!

I had a great time getting soaked at the front of the boat in the ocean. It was so much fun! Also, the movie location tour was great because I got to see various places.

オーシャンで船の先に捕まり波を受けてずぶ濡れになって楽しみました。最高に楽しかったです。あと映画ロケ地巡りツアーはいろいろ見れてよかったです。

My group loves this activity. We booked the ATV package with shuttle, which is the convenience. The shuttle bus was on time, make sure you should be 10-15 minutes early.

The shuttle bus is comfortable and clean with recliner chairs, food rest, and good AC. We were dropped off an hour prior our tour, so we can have some food at the cafe.

The tour guides gave us the clear instruction and they made sure we followed them. It is slightly more than 2-hour tour as it was raining and windy. *** We under forecasted the weather, so we were cold and soaking wet. Please make sure to gear up jackets and raincoats. *** Anyways, it was so fun and adventurous.

Great fun time, staff very friendly and helpful. Kid friendly

In Japan, horseback riding experiences usually last about 10 to 20 minutes, but here you can enjoy a longer ride! You can bring items like your phone or a plastic bottle. If you have a bag that you can attach to your waist, it's also okay to bring that.

The local staff seemed to speak some simple Japanese, and they kindly said things like, "Sister, hold the reins." They were very nice. The horses looked calm, so I didn't feel scared at all. I had a great time experiencing this that day! Thank you very much!

I forgot about the tip... I had put my wallet in the locker, and the staff member who helped me went off to her next job quickly, so I couldn't give it in the end. It might be a good idea to keep some cash for tips in your pocket. That way, you can hand it over smoothly after the horseback riding experience.

Experiencing horseback riding in such a beautiful setting has truly become a wonderful memory! If you're hesitating, I definitely recommend signing up. I think it will become a lovely memory! ♡

日本では10〜20分程度の乗馬体験が多いですが、ここは時間たっぷり乗馬が体験できます！！携帯、ペットボトル位であれば持ち込み可。腰につけるタイプのカバンなら持ち込んでもOKでした。
現地のスタッフさんは簡単な日本語を話せるみたいで「オネエサン、タヅナヒイテ」等声をかけてくれました。とっても優しかったです。馬も穏やかそうで怖い思いはしませんでした。この日は楽しく体験することができました！ありがとうございました！！
チップの事を忘れてしまっていて…財布はロッカーにいれちゃったし担当してくれたお姉さんはすぐ次のお仕事に行っちゃったしで…結局渡せませんでした。自分のポケットにチップ分のお札をいれておくといいかもしれません。そしたら乗馬体験が終わったらスマートに渡せると思います。
最高な景色の中で乗馬を体験できるのは本当にいい思い出になりました！迷ってる方はぜひ申し込んでみてください。素敵な思い出になると思います♡

There are Japanese staff members, and there are videos and explanations available for Japanese visitors, so it's reassuring! The horseback riding experience goes by in just two hours. It seems that the speed and course can vary depending on the horse's mood that day, so for those who absolutely want to see the filming of the movie, I recommend the bus tour or the buggy ride. It was great to enjoy the beautiful scenery and experience something out of the ordinary, but my knees and back... haha, just a heads up that it will catch up with you later. I would love to experience it again if I have the chance! ^_^

日本人スタッフの方がいたり、日本の方向けにビデオや説明書きがあるので安心です！
乗馬体験は2時間あっという間です。お馬さんのご機嫌でスピードやその日によってコースが違うようなので、映画の撮影を絶対に見たい！という方にはバスのツアーやバギーの方がおすすめです。
綺麗な景色をみて非日常感を味わえてよかったのですが、膝と腰が…笑　後々きますのでご注意ください。機会があればまた体験したいです^_^

My first experience with the four-wheel buggy at Kualoa Ranch was worth every penny, and I was very satisfied. The check-in was smooth, and the briefing started on time. The local staff who assisted us were friendly. Kualoa Ranch itself has a vast area, so driving the buggy while enjoying the pleasant breeze and scenery was a lot of fun. During the two-hour experience, we stopped the buggy three times to get off and take photos, and listening to the history of the land in Hawaii made it very fulfilling.

初めてのクアロアランチでの四輪バギー体験はお値段以上でとても大満足でした。チェックインもスムーズで時間通りに説明も始まりました。担当して下さった現地のスタッフさんもフレンドリーでした。クアロアランチ自体が広大な土地を持っているので四輪バギーをひたすら運転して心地よい風と景色でとても楽しかったです。2時間の中に3回のみバギーを停めて降りて写真撮影ができたり、ハワイの土地の歴史の説明を聞いたらとても大満足でした。

Experience a 2-hour buggy ride!
With plenty of time, we took turns driving!

Anyone can drive if they have a Japanese driver's license!
Driving is easy, just like a golf cart, so anyone can do it.

Our handsome guide provided instructions in English.
Since we are not very good at English, there were many parts we couldn't understand, but he took lots of photos and videos for us!

The weather was unpredictable, and it started to rain, so having a raincoat would be nice! However, most people managed without one! We also didn't use a raincoat, but the buggy has a cover, so we didn't get too wet!

However, it was windy and cold, so we wore a hoodie over our tank tops and took it off at times!
This information is from early April 2024, so please keep it in mind!

バギーを2時間体験！
2時間たっぷりなので運転は交代でしました！

日本の免許証があれば誰でも運転できます！
ゴルフのカートのように運転は簡単で
誰でもできます。

イケメンガイドさんが英語で案内してくれました。
私たちは英語があまり得意ではないので
理解できないところが多々ありましたが
写真や動画をたくさん撮ってくださいました！

途中で雨が降ってきたりと
天気は読めないのでカッパがあったら
いいですね！でもほとんどの方が
カッパを使わずに過ごしてました！
私たちもカッパは使用せずでしたが
バギーはちゃんと上の部分があるので
そんなに濡れませんでした！

ただ、風が吹いていて寒かったので
タンクトップの上にパーカーを着たり、
脱いだりしました！

参考にしてください！

Loved the tour and was fun to see where all the movies were shot! Our guide was amazing! Would highly recommend going with your family! We only did the movie tour but there are a lot of other tours that seemed great!

My hubby and I took our 9 and 5 year old on this Sandbar trip. It was a short boat ride out & the kids never got motion sickness.

Tour guide was very thoughtful and had a bunch of water toys for everyone, we had canoes, SUP, volley ball and various water sports stuff to go around.

It took 3-3.5 hours which is just perfect and right when we got tired it was time to head back.

The band playing music was very good and this is a nod to the singer as he was clearly a talent and easy on the eyes

This trip was great!! Just enough tabs priced reasonably oh and bring your own snacks & booze!! That was cool they let us pack our own munchies!

I participated around mid-March.

First of all, I found it most inconvenient that there was no pick-up service from the hotel in the Waikiki area. Since we were a group of ten, it would have been nice if they could have come to pick us up. The pick-up location was sent via SMS around 6 PM the day before, but it was written in a way like “◯◯ave. bus stop” instead of providing a map or address, which made it a bit unclear.

After getting off the bus and transferring to the boat, there were only orange juice and donuts available on board. I had seen photos and thought there might be muffins too, but it was just donuts!

When we arrived at the beach and entered the water, the water level was up to the shoulders of adults, so if you had small children, it was concerning to think about bringing smartphones or anything like that into the water. To top it off, we had two hours of free time, but the water temperature in mid-March was too low, and both adults and children were too cold, so we got out after just 40 minutes.

I don't think I will do this again!

3月中旬頃参加しました。

まず、ワイキキ地区のホテル泊でしたがホテルまでの送迎では無かった事が一番不便に感じました。
10人で利用したので、ホテルまで迎えに来てくれても良さそうですが…。
送迎場所も前日の18時頃SMSで来て、しかも地図や住所ではなく“◯◯ave.bus stop”みたいな書き方だったので少し分かりづらかったです。

バスを降りて船に乗り換えて、船の中にはオレンジジュースとドーナツだけありました。
写真を見ていたのでマフィンもあるのかな？と思っていましたが、ドーナツオンリーでした！

船が着いて海に入った時は、大人でも肩くらいまで浸かるような水位で小さな子ども連れの場合万が一の事を考えるとスマホなどは持って入れる余裕はありませんでした。
また極め付けは、2時間の自由時間がありましたが3月中旬の海は水温が低すぎて子どもも含め大人も寒すぎて40分で上がってしまいました。

次はやらないと思います！

I participated with six female friends in their 60s. On the moving boat, we all got excited with live performances and singing. During snorkeling, we were able to see schools of colorful fish up close, which was amazing. We also participated in activities like stand-up paddleboarding. The staff were very attentive during the activities, so even though it was my first experience, I had a fantastic time. Overall, I felt that all the staff were very welcoming to us participants.

60代の女友達6人で参加しました。移動の船内では、生演奏や歌で乗客みんなで盛り上がりました。シュノーケリングでは、色鮮やかな魚の群れが、本当に近くで見られて最高でした。サップなどのアクテビティにも参加しました。アクテビティでは、スタッフの方々がいろいろ気をつかってくれたので、初めての体験でしたが、最高に楽しめました。とにかく、スタッフ全員が私たち参加者をもてなしてくれた気がしました。

I had the best experience riding horses in a wonderful landscape!

However, the transportation was disappointing. I didn't know that there were only a limited number of buses at specific times, and there was no prior explanation about this. It was only when I arrived on the day that I was handed a paper stating the time of my return bus. Since I wasn't informed in advance, I couldn't even cancel.

Of course, I can tolerate some waiting time, but this was beyond reasonable. It was terrible to wait for over 2.5 hours for the shuttle bus with nothing to do! If the schedule was going to be like that, I would have liked to know beforehand.

Since it was such a waste of time, I called an Uber and went home immediately. I asked if I could get a refund since I didn't take the bus, but I was told there would be no refund due to the cancellation policy. I thought they should have informed us about the shuttle bus waiting for nearly three hours, but there was no point in saying anything, so I just accepted it.

The transportation fee for a large tour bus carrying many people was quite high. If there are multiple people, it's much cheaper, faster, and more efficient to use Uber for round trips.

What should have been a great experience was tarnished by poor management.

素晴らしい風景の中を乗馬ができ、最高の体験でした！

ただ、残念なのが送迎。
指定時間に決められたバス本数のみの送迎だとは知らず、そういった事前説明もなし。当日現地についてから、あなたの帰りの送迎バス時間は何時ですと
書かれている紙を渡されて初めて知ります。事前に知らないのでキャンセルすることすらできません。

もちろん多少の待ち時間は許容できますが、常識を超える長さ。
やることもないのに、ただただ2.5時間以上も送迎バス待機はあまりにひどい！
そういう時間スケジュールになるのなら、事前に教えていただきたかった。

あまりに時間が無駄なので、Uberを呼んですぐ帰りました。
バスに乗らないから返金してほしいときいてみましたが、
当日キャンセルだから返金はないとキャセルポリシーを説明されました。
じゃ、3時間ちかく待たせる送迎バスですと事前に知らせてよって思いましたが、言っても仕方ないので泣き寝入り。

送迎料金が大型観光バスで大人数を運ぶのに、かなりの高額。
複数人いるならUberで往復いくほうが、安くて圧倒的に速く効率的。

せっかくの良い体験のはずが、運営がよくなくて印象が損なわれました。

Excellent adventure with family!! Love the vibe and staff.

Mahalo!!!

This was such a fun excursion that my friends and I did in Hawaii! we all had so much fun and agreed it was the best thing we did our entire trip. They provide food and all the gear to snorkel or paddle board. The weather wasn’t the nicest when we went (cloudy) but we still had so much fun, and the staff was so nice!

Our family had an absolute blast on the UTV tour. Our guides were fantastic, the drive was exciting and the sites were amazing. We will definitely recommend this to others. This whole ranch is a must see if you are on Oahu.

We did the Raptor Tour and tremendously enjoyed it. The views are great! I was the only woman who drove raptor ATV in this group, there was no any problem and it was fun driving the mule. I highly recommend. It is expensive but worth it and will create a great memory.
