Oahu
Wow this was my firs time in hawaii and this compamy made my life easier. I realy recomend them we spend the best time in ours tours.
I was able to fully immerse myself in the world of Jurassic Park. If you have a Japanese driver's license, anyone can drive! There are a couple of water spots in the first half and three in the second half, and if you step on the gas, you'll get as wet as if you were on a rapid slide, which is fantastic (laughs). If you're alternating driving with someone, you can switch every time you stop at a viewpoint, so both of you can experience it. Your face, hair, and clothes will definitely get dirty from the dust (and water), so if you're concerned, it might be a good idea to bring wet wipes or a change of clothes. The restrooms were clean! The instructor spoke English, and there was also one Japanese staff member, so it's reassuring! This time we used a buggy, but next time I want to try horseback riding and zip-lining as well.
ジュラシックパークの世界観にどっぷりハマることができました日本の免許を持っていけば誰でも運転できます️前半に一箇所、後半に三箇所ほどウォータースポット(水たまり?)があって、全力でアクセルを踏み込めば、急流滑りくらい濡れますが最高です(笑)ふたりで交互に運転するなら、ビュースポットで降りるたびに交代すればどちらも体験できます顔や髪、服は砂埃(と、水)でちゃんと汚れるので、気になる方はウェットティッシュや着替えを持っていくのがいいかもです。トイレは綺麗でした!インストラクターの方は英語話者の方ですが、お一人日本人の職員さんもおられるので安心です!今回はバギーでしたが、次回は乗馬やジップラインも体験してみたいです
It was truly like Jurassic Park.
There were various facilities in the ranch that I believe were used for filming the movie, and it brought back memories of Jurassic Park.
I had a valuable experience riding a four-wheeler through the ranch for almost an hour. I would like to visit again on another occasion.
ほんとうにジュラシックパークでした。
牧場内にはいろいろ映画の撮影に使われたと思う施設があり、ジュラシックパークの映画がよみがえってきました。
約1時間弱四輪バギーで牧場内を駆け抜けて貴重な体験をさせていただきました。またの機会にもう一度訪れたいと思います。
I participated at my husband's suggestion, and I truly think it was worth going! However, you will definitely get your face and clothes covered in dirt, so it's best to bring clothes you don't mind throwing away and some wet wipes.
夫の提案で参加しましたが、行ってよかったと心から思います!
ただ本当に顔も服も土だらけになるので、捨ててもよい服とウェットティッシュは持って行った方がいいです。
So many fun zip lines and two suspension bridges. The guides were all so lovely and made me feel safe throughout the entire adventure. Highly recommend for an unforgettable experience in Hawaii!
Meet at the location with a rental car. The parking lot is quite full and tight. After check-in, you have free time until the meeting time. After gathering, a summary of precautions is provided in a Japanese video.
Get on the Kawasaki off-road buggy and off we go. We proceed along a relatively well-maintained road, park at the first detour spot, and receive an explanation (in English). After this, we navigate up and down the road, stopping at about three points while squealing with excitement on our way to the final destination. Your face and clothes will get covered in sand, so it's advisable to cover your mouth with a bandana.
レンタカーで現地集合。駐車場が結構いっぱいでキツイ。受付後に集合時間までフリー。集合した後、日本語のビデオで注意点をサマリー。
Kawasaki オフロードバギーに乗り込み、いざ出発。比較的整備された道を進み最初の寄り道スポットで駐車し、説明を受ける。(英語) この後アップダウンの道をキャーキャー言いながら3地点ほど止まりながら最終地点に向かう。顔と服は砂まみれになるのでバンダナで口を覆うべし。
Crew members were amazing! Saw beautiful coral and fishes. Fun activities for family with kids
Mahalo for the review! - Team KBOS
We love the setting of the boat lounge. All the staffs are very friendly and helpful. We love the donuts and drinks! The singers while sailing are also good. We also love how they guide us on how to do the snorkeling and how they are protecting us while doing our sandbar activities. Special thanks to Toby for checking on us while doing the paddle board. We will definitely go back with them on our next Oahu trip! Highly recommended! Don't go somewhere else if you want the best Sandbar experience!!!
We really appreciate the recommendation and hope to see you again soon! Mahalo! - Team KBOS
Highly recommend. The staff explains everything to you on what to do and not to do. Staff got your back. Overall great experience
Mahalo for the review & recommendation! - Team KBOS
I had a horseback riding experience. The experience itself was very enjoyable, but the website stated an 8 AM meeting time and a 1 PM departure, so I planned for a half-day in the morning. However, it actually turned out to be an 8 AM meeting time and a 3:30 PM departure. After arriving at the site, we had to wait for 2 hours until the activity started, and after the activity ended, we waited another 2 hours until the bus departed, totaling 4 hours of waiting time. As a result, it took the whole day, and I had to cancel my afternoon plans. For these reasons, I think it's best for those making reservations to be cautious.
乗馬体験をしました。乗馬体験自体はとても楽しかったですが、サイトには8時集合13時出発とのことで午前の半日の予定をしていましたが、実際は8時集合15時半出発となり、現地到着後もアクティビティ開始まで2時間待ち、アクティビティ終了後も2時間バス出発まで計4時間待ち時間がありました。結果丸一日がかかり午後の予定をキャンセルせざるえませんでした。上記の理由から、予約される方はご注意された方がいいと思います。
We had a great time with fantastic performances and snacks even before arriving at the sandbar. Even after the boat stopped, their wonderful performance continued. Thanks to that, returning to the boat after activities wasn't boring. Moreover, kids can see a lot of fish at a shallow depth for snorkeling. I highly recommend this tour! The staff are extremely kind and friendly.

A couple over 60 participated together. Since they are active and regularly exercise, they weren't worried about their physical stamina, but it was their first experience with kayaking, so they chose a two-hour guided tandem ride. Paddling through the blue sea while getting splashed by the waves was a refreshing escape from daily life, and it felt truly wonderful. If there's a next time, they would like to try the five-hour course as well. However, they only brought $30 in cash and were dismayed to realize that tips were necessary. They apologized to the guide and left what they could, but they regret not being able to give more.
還暦を過ぎた夫婦 2人で参加 普段から体を動かしているので 体力的には心配ありませんでしたが カヤックは初体験なので 2時間のガイド付き 2人乗りを選びました。
波を被りながら漕ぎ進む青い海は 日常とかけ離れていて 本当に気持ち良かったです。次回があるなら 5時間コースも体験したいです。
ただ、現金を$30しか持って行かなくて
チップが必要とわかって愕然としてしまいました。ガイドさんに謝ってあるだけ置いてきましたが 申し訳ない事をしてしまったと反省しています。
Dear Yukiko,
Thank you very much for participating in our tour. We are delighted to hear that you enjoyed the kayak tour. We hope you will join us for the 5-hour tour next time. We look forward to seeing you again.

Really great tour with friendly staff! The snorkeling was amazing and the banana boat was really fun. Loved it!

Boat crews were friendly and knowledgeable. They were like your adventure buddies. Super laid-back, cracking jokes, and making sure everyone was having a blast.
Mahalo for your review and kind words for our crew! - Team KBOS
I was worried because it was raining in the morning, but the sun peeked out along the way, and I was able to see a very beautiful sandbar! However, it was indeed cold in February.
朝雨が降っていたので、心配していましたが途中から晴れ間がのぞき、とても綺麗なサンドバーが見れました!ただやはり2月は寒かったです。
Thank you very much for participating in the tour and for sharing your photos. From all of us at KBOS.

I was able to enjoy a leisurely 2-hour horseback ride. By the end, my rear was sore, so please be careful. About an hour of riding would be ideal.
2時間ゆっくりと馬に乗り楽しんで過ごせました。最後は、お尻が痛かったので気をつけてください。1時間くらいの乗馬があればベストです。
So much fun, everyone is so friendly and such high energy. Good value for money. 10/10 would defiantly recommend.

My group consisted of friends/couples and one 8 month old baby. We booked this excursion without any of us having done this before and we all said we’d go back and do it again if we could! First off, the booking information and communication emails and texts were very helpful for day of event reminders. The instructions in the emails and texts were pretty detailed and easy to follow along. Once we arrive at the harbor, check in process and safety guide getting on to the boat was seamless and even allowed our large party that all booked separately to group up and grab a table together. Lunch was promptly served(we took the afternoon tour) and we took off for the sandbar. We booked the all-inclusive activities and I definitely recommend it for those who are more active/thrill seekers! There are safety guidelines that the crew goes over with you in detail to ensure safety for all passengers and I really appreciated that since our group had some hesitant or nervous to do the water activities. While we did have an 8month old infant with us and brought her own life vest, the crew came by to offer all infants and children life vests during their safety checks. We did all the inclusive activities offered and was still able to relax in the sandbar water and climb up to the floating lounge to hang out before we headed back to the harbor. The live music was phenomenal(I’m biased as a hula dancer maybe) and my group and I even got up to perform a hula for the other passengers and crew. The crew was friendly, informative, and playful which are all things that I hope for on fun excursions!

This was a fantastic tour. We have done several tours at the Kualoa Ranch and have enjoyed them all. Our guide was great and informative. It was obvious she really enjoyed her job. Would definitely recommend this tour and all the other tours at the Kualoa Ranch.
A great day to kayak, just the right amount of clouds and right amount of wind. Going try again, went to the one of the small islands, want to check out the sand bar next time.
Aloha Paul! That's awesome! Thank you so much for joining us for a kayak and snorkel adventure! And thank you for taking the time to leave such an awesome review! We really appreciate it. Stoked to hear you had such a great experience and the weather cooperated. Looking forward to seeing you again for a sandbar paddle! Mahalo!
Had an idea, but kept expecations low. It was an unique experience in doing some agriculture work on hawaii land. Something i truly never can replicate from where i am from. Great time as a date.
I did the secret island back in 2015, and it truly felt like a secret island. The amount of people that were there at that time were the same amount of people on the boat. Now it is overhwelmed 10 fold of people. From the previous time going and present activities to do, they added a couple more presently. One of which checking out the turtles.
Anyways its still fun, especially with someone else.
We participated as a family of five with children aged 6 and 7!
As we moved by boat, the color of the sea clearly changed, and the emerald green water was so beautiful that it left us in awe.
This time, the water depth was up to the adults' waists, which made it a perfect opportunity for our first challenges with snorkeling, stand-up paddleboarding, and canoeing! The kids were able to touch the bottom, so we could enjoy ourselves safely until the end!
However, it was a bit cold, and my 6-year-old son, who couldn't touch the bottom, got scared and cried, retreating to the boat right away. I was a bit disappointed because I wanted him to play a little longer...
Next time in the summer, I strongly hope to join when we can see the sandbar in its true form!!
This time, the kids wanted to ride the banana boat and the tube, so we all participated, and they all said it was the best!!
Thank you for ensuring a safe environment with proper supervision!
I'm really glad we participated!
6.7.9歳の子連れ家族5人で参加しました!
船で移動すると明らかに海の色が変わり、エメラルドグリーンの海がとてもキレイで感動しました。
今回は大人の腰上辺りまでの水深だったため、シュノーケリング、サップ、カヌーは初めてのチャレンジするのにちょうど良かったです!子どもたちも足がついたので、安心して最後まで楽しむことができました!
ただ少し寒かったので、6歳の息子は脚もつかないため怖かったのか号泣してすぐ船に撤退してしまいました笑 もう少し遊んで欲しかったので残念、、、
次は夏、是非サンドバーの本来の姿か見れるタイミングで参加したいと強く思いました!!
今回は子どもたちがバナナボートとチューブをしたいと言ったので、そちらもみんなで参加して子どもたちは最高だった!!と口を揃えて話しています。
安全に過ごせるよう監視体制もしっかりして下さり、ありがとうございました!
参加して本当に良かったです!
It seems that you enjoyed the activities with your family, and we are very pleased about that. Thank you for participating in the tour. From all of us at KBOS.
ご家族でアクティビティを楽しんで頂けた様ですね、大変嬉しく思っております。この度はツアーへのご参加ありがとうございました。 KBOS スタッフ一同
When we were planning our honeymoon trip to Oahu, my parents discouraged us from using a rental car, and I felt a bit sad thinking, "Oh, we can only sightsee around Waikiki..." While trying to find a way to enjoy areas outside of Waikiki on our own, I came across this tour!!
Since I can't speak any English and couldn't use a rental car, having a shuttle service with Japanese-speaking staff was truly reassuring ( ; ; ) Ai and Natsue kindly guided us to local recommended spots like snorkeling points and shopping areas, and Tomo, who provided the shuttle service, was very friendly. His speaking to us in Japanese made us feel at ease right from the moment he picked us up (><).
We were blessed with great weather, and both Kailua and Lanikai had stunning views, making for an exciting snorkeling experience with my husband!! I highly recommend this tour to everyone ⭐︎ Thank you so much!!!
新婚旅行でオアフ島に行く計画をしていたとき、レンタカーでの行動を両親に止められてしまい「あ〜、ワイキキ周辺しか観光できないのか...」と寂しい気持ちになっていました。
どうにか自分たちの足でワイキキ以外の地域も堪能できないかと調べていた時に、このツアーを見つけました!!
英語が全く話せず、レンタカーも使えないため、送迎付きで日本語スタッフの方に対応いただけたのは、本当に心強くて安心でした( ; ; )
あいさん、なつえさんがシュノーケルポイントやショッピングできる場所など現地のおすすめスポットをとても丁寧に案内してくださり、送迎してくださったトモさんも気さくで、日本語で声をかけてくださったおかげでお迎えの時点からとても安心感がありました(><)
天気にも恵まれて、カイルアもラニカイも景色がとても綺麗で夫と興奮しながらシュノーケリングしました!!このツアーはみなさんにおすすめしたいです⭐︎
本当にありがとうございました!!!

We had a great time. Picked us up in Waikiki, got on cat for 15 min and had a light lunch and swam and snorkeled. Everyone was fantastic. The two men playing music was a treat. Great time on a full boat!
We're very happy to hear that you had a great time. Mahalo! - Team KBOS
I booked this tour for my first time in Hawaii. On the bus heading there, there were many Japanese people! After arriving, there is an explanation for each tour, and it seemed like most people had signed up for the buggy tour.
During the horseback riding experience, two English-speaking staff members accompany you. While English is the main language, when the horse lags behind, they say, "Kick it! Thank you! Good!" so even if you're not good at English, you can understand the basics and have fun.
They will tell you the names of the horses if you ask, so I think you'll enjoy horseback riding even more if you engage with them.
The staff were kind, and the horses were very cute and well-behaved!
初めてのHawaiiでこちらのツアーを申し込みしました。ホテルから向かう際のバスでは、日本人も多くいました!到着してからツアーごとに説明があるのですが、ほとんどの方がバギーツアーに申し込みしているようでした。
乗馬体験では2名の英語スタッフが一緒についてきてくれます。英語がメインになりますが、馬が遅れをとると「蹴って蹴って!ありがとう!グッド!」と言ってくれるので、英語が苦手でも最低限のことは分かりましたので楽しかったです。
馬の名前を聞くと教えてくれるので、ぜひ声掛けながら乗馬をするとより楽しめると思います。
スタッフも優しく、馬もとってもキュートでお利口さんでした!!
My friend couldn't make it, so I participated in this tour alone. I wasn't very good at English, but I really wanted to ride a horse, so I went from the city to Kualoa Ranch by myself. It was quite difficult to find the horse riding area, and I was really anxious being in a small hut where no one was around, but it turned out I was in the right place. The staff helped me find a helmet that fit my head and instructed me to watch a video about safety precautions. After that, as more people started to gather, I got on the horse. It was my first time riding, and it was really difficult to handle. Most of the others were families, and I didn't see many groups of friends in their 20s. I struggled to ride well, and it was embarrassing to be alone and squeal, so I rode feeling quite shy. After that, the two-hour tour began. The horse was free-spirited and would suddenly stop to urinate, and some of us, including me, had trouble moving forward or getting separated from the group, which was tough. I definitely should have gone for just one hour. My backside was so painful... I was 21, but it was exhausting, haha. Next time, I will definitely join for one hour with friends.
友人が行けなくなってしまい、このツアーには1人で参加しました。あまり英語も出来なかったのですがどうしても馬には乗りたかったので、1人で市内からクアロアランチまで行きました。馬の乗り場まではとても分かりずらく、誰もいない小屋みたいなところでここであってるのかずっと不安だったのですが、どうやら合っていたみたいです。スタッフの方に自分の頭に合うヘルメットと今から注意事項などの映像を見せると指示をされ、そちらを終えてから人が少しずつ集まってきたところで馬に乗りました。初めて馬に乗ったので本当に扱いが難しかったです。周りは家族連れが多く、20代のお友達同士というものはあまり見かけませんでした。とにかく上手く乗れず1人でキャーキャー言うのも恥ずかしいので、色々と恥ずかしいまま乗りました。その後は2時間のツアーが始まります。馬は自由で急におしっこで止まりますし、私も含め何人か融通が効かず進んでくれなかったり仲間とはぐれようとしたり、大変でした。絶対に1時間で良かったです。おしりがとにかく痛くて痛くて、、。21歳でしたが、しんどかったです笑次は必ずお友達と1時間の方で参加します。
It was a great trip the crew was amazing the music was great the floating dock was nice my wife liked that the volleyball was super fun the snorkeling my kids loved .
Mahalo for your review and the beautiful picture! - Team KBOS
The Japanese staff were kind and reassuring. The tour was in English, and I didn't understand half of it (laughs), but they really tried hard to make it enjoyable! They took photos and videos at key points. My family had our beginner driver daughter behind the wheel, but there were no problems at all. Climbing hills, going downhill, and crossing streams were all very exciting, and we made great memories. Thank you.
日本スタッフもいて親切安心でした。ツアーは英語ガイドで半分も理解できませんでしたが(笑)、楽しませようと本当に一生懸命!要所要所で写真やビデオも撮ってくれました。うちの家族は初心者ドライバーの娘が運転しましたが全く問題無し。登り坂、下り坂、小川の突破など、とてもエキサイティングで、いい思い出が出来ました。ありがとう。
