All Reviews for Windward East Oahu

The crew was very knowledgeable and friendly! Lunch was delicious. Fun to meet other people from all over.

The staff was awesome! We had a wonderful time at the sandbar. Highly recommended! I would suggest booking the morning excursion. Worked for us wonderfully! The bad was so fun. Played all the songs requested.

While there may be various opinions, I highly recommend visiting Kualoa Ranch at least once. You’ll get used to driving the buggy in about five minutes. It’s amazing to enjoy such great nature just about an hour from downtown Honolulu.

The instructors speak entirely in English, and while I didn’t understand everything 100%, they provide detailed and enjoyable explanations about Hawaii’s history and legends.

There are warnings regarding dirt, but in reality, it wasn’t that bothersome. The smell of the helmet was a bit noticeable, but aside from that, given the opportunity to enjoy nature and interact with animals, some dirt and smell are somewhat unavoidable.

Overall, I think it was a very good experience.

色々と賛否もあると思いますが、クアロア牧場は一度は行くことをお勧めいたします。
バギーの運転も5分で慣れます。
ホノルル市内から1時間程度でここまで大自然を満喫できるのは最高です。

インストラクターの方はすべて英語で、私も100%理解はできておりませんが、
ハワイの歴史や言い伝えなどかなり詳しく丁寧に(楽しく)説明してくれます。

汚れに等に関しても注意勧告はありますが、実際はそれほど汚れは気になりませんでした。
若干ヘルメットの匂いが少し気になった程度です(笑)
ただ、大自然を満喫し、動物たちと触れ合う以上、汚れや匂いはある程度仕方のないことです。

トータルで考慮して、とても良い経験だったと思います。

I was a beginner at horseback riding with limited English. First, we watched a short Japanese video, and that was the end of the explanation. After that, I was guided by an English-speaking guide to ride the horse. The guide gave simple instructions in Japanese like "right," "left," "kick," and "pull," so I didn't have any particular trouble with the language. I ended up being at the front, and there were times when I felt anxious not knowing the way when the guide was at the back. However, the horse was smart and knew the way, so even when I gave incorrect instructions, it still took the right path. It was my first time riding, but the interactions with the horse were very enlightening, and it was a wonderful experience.

英語カタコトで初乗馬のものです。
まず短い日本語のビデオを見て説明は終わりです。あとは英語のガイドさんに誘導されるまま馬に乗せられます。ガイドさんは右・左・蹴って・引っ張って、などの簡単な日本語で指示をしてくれるので、言葉は特に困りませんでした。私は先頭になってしまい、ガイドさんが後列についているときは道が分からず不安な時はありましたが、馬が賢く道をわかっているので私が間違えた指示をだしても正しい道に入ってくれました。乗馬は初めてでしたが、馬とのやり取りはすごく気づかされることも多く、すばらしい体験でした。

I had a blast was saying goodbye to a friend and couldn't have asked for better service or a view. Everyone was nice and respectful and the games where a bonus!

We had a great time other than the water being freezing we had a blast! Absolutely amazing service and all around a great time and company. Professional and on time!

My boyfriend and I are locals and haven’t been to the sandbar in years. This tour was everything we were hoping for and more! The staff was super friendly, engaging, and really went out of their way to ensure everyone had a good time. The boat is pretty spacious so there’s plenty of shade when you need a break from the sun. Plus you can’t go wrong with live music! Not sure if any other tours offer that! We will definitely be booking again :).

They intentionally made the road bumpy. It depends on the driver's skill, but my husband drove roughly on purpose, making it feel like a roller coaster, and our 9-year-old was screaming the whole time. At one point, we sped right into a puddle, and we all ended up covered in mud, haha. Of course, the other buggies remained clean. With ups and downs, puddles, rivers, and magnificent scenery, it was an incredibly fun two hours! (I thought it would be two hours including the briefing, but we actually drove for a full two hours, haha.) The staff were all very friendly. You can enjoy it even if you know nothing about Jurassic Park. By the way, all the explanations along the way are in English.

I realized after the tour that I had dropped my phone during the trip. It's better to bring a bag that closes securely. When I informed them about the lost phone, they said they would call if it was found. A few days later, I received a call from a Japanese person saying it had been found. They seemed to be considerate since I am Japanese (even though they connected me with a completely different department). We had already moved to the Big Island, but that person coordinated with their boss and sent my phone to the Big Island. It arrived the next day, so I was able to receive it safely before returning home, and I am very grateful.

あえて道をボコボコにしてあるんですね。ドライバーの技量にもよりますが、主人はわざと荒く運転したのでまるでジェットコースターのようで9歳の子供がずっとキャーキャー言ってました。途中の水たまりでは思いっきりスピードを出して突っ込み、我が家は全員泥だらけになりました笑。もちろん他のバギーたちは綺麗なままです。アップダウンあり、水たまりあり、川あり、雄大な景色ありで、めちゃくちゃ楽しい2時間でした！（事前説明含めて2時間かと思ったら、ちゃんと2時間走ります。笑）スタッフもみんな親切です。ジュラシックパークを何も知らなくても楽しいです。ちなみに途中の解説は全て英語です。

ツアー道中で携帯を落としてしまったことに、ツアー後に気づきました。口がしっかり閉まるバッグを持って行った方が良いです。携帯を落としたことを伝えたところ、見つかったら電話すると言ってくれました。数日後に見つかったと日本人の方から電話がありました。私が日本人なので気遣ってくれたようです（全然異なる部署にも関わらず繋いで下さったようです）。私たちは既にハワイ島に移動していたのですが、その方は上司と掛け合って下さり、携帯をハワイ島まで送って下さいました。翌日着で届けて下さったため、帰国前に無事に受け取ることができ感謝しかありません。

we had a lovely time kayaking to the coral reef and snorkeling around. the people that worked there were super kind and helpful and showed us exactly where to go and what to do with detailed instructions. thanks for having us!

When we arrived, it was raining, but by the time we had lunch, the weather cleared up, and the view was amazing! The two-hour buggy ride was quite long, and we got soaked in puddles multiple times! Haha, make sure to wear clothes that you don't mind getting dirty! Haha.

But the scenery was so beautiful, it felt like a processed photo, and it was very soothing. They also provided explanations about the filming locations, and we stopped at photo spots to take pictures and have fun! I definitely want to participate again next time!

着いた時は雨が降っていたのですが、ランチしている間に天気が晴れてきて、最高の景色でした！2時間のバギーは結構長く、何度も水溜りでビチャビチャになりました！笑汚れてもいい服で行ってください！笑
でも景色は加工写真のように綺麗で癒されました。ロケ地の説明もして下さり、写真スポットで停車して写真撮影して楽しみました！ぜひまた次回も参加したいです！

I enjoy learning about WW2, so this was a nice tour for me. Seeing movie sites was super cool too. Our tour guide was great and very informative - but I'm sure this will be the luck of the draw for which guide you get.

I was looking forward to the heavenly sea, but unfortunately, it was rainy and a bit chilly, which was disappointing. However, the staff were friendly, and even though the water was murky, it was fun to dive and see the fish. I want to try again on a sunny day.

楽しみにしていた天国の海でしたが
あいにくの雨で
肌寒く残念な感じでした。。。が、
スタッフの方はフレンドリーで
濁っているながらも
潜ってみれば魚見え楽しかったです
晴れた日にリベンジしたいと思います

Our family of 5 had a great experience and the crew was so much fun. Captain was awesome. Just wish the sun would have peeked out. Will definitely visit again.

I went snorkeling and stand-up paddleboarding at a sandbar that I had always wanted to visit! First, I was picked up by a van from a nearby hotel for an extra fee, and it took about 30 minutes to reach the port. (There were about 15 people on board, and since I was the last to get on, that was about the time it took.)

When we arrived at the port, there were restrooms available, so I took care of that and signed some documents while receiving explanations. There were also restrooms on the boat, with two for women and one for men. There was one Japanese woman and a man who spoke Japanese (with a Kansai dialect) on board.

Once on the boat, two men played guitar and ukulele to liven up the atmosphere! (When we returned to the boat during a break, they played music through the speakers, and I requested a song, which they played.)

I tried stand-up paddleboarding for the first time, but because it was windy, it felt more like I was being swept away than paddling! However, when the wind died down, I was able to move forward, and it was fun! I had to paddle hard to stay behind the red buoy, but I wasn't making much progress, and seeing that, the man who spoke Japanese (with a Kansai dialect) helped pull me along.

When we got close to the coral reef for snorkeling, the staff handed out what looked like French bread, and when I tore it apart in the water, a lot of fish came out to see it! There were also small, beautiful fish near the coral, but when I went to a spot near the boat that was about waist-high, I was able to see many large fish, almost a meter long! When I asked the staff, they said it was a white fish and that it would be delicious to eat.

Unfortunately, I didn't see any sea turtles, but I’ll look forward to that next time. I participated in early May, and when I got out of the water, it was a bit chilly. I regretted not bringing a change of clothes, just a bath towel, so it would have been nice to have something easy to put on, like a dress. The weather was good, and overall, it was a great tour!

いつか行ってみたいなと思っていたサンドバーでシュノーケリングとSUPをしてきました！
まず、別料金ですが近くのホテルまでバンで迎えに来てもらい港まで30分ぐらいで着きました！
(15人ぐらい乗っていたかな？1番最後に乗ったのでそれぐらいの時間でした)
港に着くと、トイレがあるので済ませておき、書類にサインなどして説明を受けました。
トイレは船の中にもあり、女性用2つ男性用1つありました。
日本人の女性が1人と日本語を喋れる男性(関西弁笑)が1人いました。
船に乗ると、男性2人がギターとウクレレで演奏して盛り上げてました！
(休憩で船に戻った時に、スピーカーで音楽をかけられていたので曲をリクエストしたらかけてくれました)
初めてSUPに挑戦しましたが、風が吹いていた為漕ぐよりも流されるに近いかんじでした笑
ただ、風が止むとしっかり進むので楽しかったです！
赤い浮きより先に行ってはいけなかったので、頑張って漕いでましたがなかなか進まず、それを見かねた日本語を喋れる男性(関西弁)が引っ張って助けてくれました笑
シュノーケリングは珊瑚礁の近くに行くと、スタッフの方がフランスパン？を渡してくれて、それを海の中でちぎると魚達が出てきてたくさん見る事が出来ました！
あと珊瑚礁の方には小さいキレイな魚がいましたが、船の近くの方の腰より高いぐらいの所に行き餌をやっていると1m弱ぐらいのとても大きい魚もたくさん見る事が出来ました！
スタッフの方に聞くと、白身の魚で食べたら美味しいそうです笑
残念ながらウミガメは見ることが出来なかったですが、また次回の楽しみにしておきます
5月上旬に参加しましたが、海からあがると肌寒く、着替えは持って来ずにバスタオルのみだったのでワンピースなど簡単に着れる着替えがあったらよかったと後悔しました。
天気も良くて全体的に良いツアーでした！

The scenery was absolutely breathtaking, open, and incredibly fun. It was a wonderful horseback riding experience that you can't have in Japan!

● Check-in and Preparation ●
Since we were traveling by rental car, we opted for a self-arranged course without transportation, which turned out to be a mistake as we got lost and arrived just in time. We checked in 20 minutes before the start instead of the recommended 45 minutes, and it was quite hectic. However, despite being late, they kindly accepted us, which was a relief. I regret not choosing the plan with transportation.

The check-in location is past the shop (there's a sign in Japanese), and you can check in by simply showing your passport and voucher, with almost no need for English. I went to check in while my companion took care of parking, and there was just a simple question about whether they were wearing proper shoes (not sandals). By the way, my companion didn’t need to show their passport.

We were instructed to leave our bags in a nearby coin locker (for a fee). A waist pouch was okay, but they provided a small bag to attach to the saddle while riding, so I felt we didn’t really need it. We left our bags in the trunk of the rental car.

When we arrived at the stable (which is diagonally across from the check-in location), we watched a 5-minute horseback riding instructional video (in Japanese), borrowed helmets and bags, and then we were off to ride.

On the way out, we mounted the horses using stairs, and on the way back, there were precautions to avoid stepping on feet when dismounting from the elevated area. In the group I joined, there were probably just two groups: a family from Korea and us, along with one guide, so it was quite a small group.

● Attire ●
Long pants and shoes that cover the toes, along with a rented helmet, are the minimum requirements for participation, which I felt was quite casual. Given the rugged mountain paths, it felt adventurous. In Japan, I think you would probably need specialized riding boots or protective vests. This lightness felt very much like being abroad!

However, for those with back or knee issues, it might be tough. Since we passed through areas with tall grass, wearing longer socks to cover the ankles would help avoid any irritation from the grass.

Perhaps because it was spring, the weather was unstable, alternating between sunny and rainy. The strong sunlight combined with light rain made a long-sleeved hoodie just right for both sun and cold protection.

● Scenery ●
The views were stunning. We could see majestic mountains and beautiful seas, which was very satisfying. Even if you’re not particularly interested in movie filming locations, I think you would still enjoy it. As a fan of the Jurassic Park series, I was thrilled to see the locations from the films.

Personally, I love plants, so it was fun to see rare mountain flora. It was interesting to see cacti growing wild.

● Guide ●
Since I don’t understand English well, I could only catch the movie titles and a few words (like right, left, stop), but there were signs and guides at the filming locations, so I was able to enjoy it to some extent. However, since you don’t dismount from the horse until you return, if you want to take close-up photos or be in pictures with the movie sets, I think another tour might be better. By the way, we passed buses and buggies while riding, so you might encounter other tours even if you sign up separately.

Also, the guide was friendly and responded with a smile when I awkwardly spoke to her in broken English about how many days I had been in Hawaii and how beautiful the ocean was. Still, I wish there had been a Japanese brochure available.

● Photography ●
In the initial instructional video, it was stated that video recording is prohibited but photos are allowed. You can take photos with either a smartphone or a camera. During the ride, the guide took individual photos of us with her smartphone, and we received the data f

とにかく絶景で開放的でとても楽しく、日本ではできない乗馬体験で素晴らしかったです！
●チェックインと準備●
　レンタカーでの行動だったため、送迎なしの現地集合解散コースにしましたが、これが失敗で迷ってしまいかなりギリギリについてしまいました。45分前のところ、20分前にチェックイン、10分前に集合とバタバタでした。
　しかし、遅れてしまったものの幸いにも受け入れてくださり、ほっとしました。大人しく送迎ありのプランを申し込めばよかったなと反省しています。
　チェックイン場所は売店を抜けた先にあり(日本語立て看板あり)、パスポートとバウチャーの提示のみでチェックインでき、英語はほぼ不要でした。同行者に駐車を任せ、私のみがチェックインに向かったため、同行者は靴を履いているか(サンダル等ではないか)という簡単な質問があった程度です。ちなみに同行者のパスポート提示は不要でした。
　荷物は近くにあるコインロッカー(有料)に置くように指示されます。ウエストポーチはOKでしたが、馬に乗るとき鞍に取り付ける小物入れを貸してくれるのでいらなかったなと思います。私たちはレンタカーのトランクに荷物を置きました。
　出発場所の馬小屋(チェックインの場所の斜め向かいくらい)に行くと、5分程度の乗馬の説明ビデオ(日本語)を見て、ヘルメットと小物入れの袋借りてさっそく乗馬です。
　行きは柵の奥にいる馬に階段を使って跨がり、帰りも高台の上に降りるので足を踏まれないよう工夫されてるなぁと感じました。
　私が参加した回は、おそらく韓国の家族の方と私たちの２グループで、そこにガイドスタッフさん1名でしたので、かなり少人数でした。
●服装●
　長ズボンと爪先がカバーされている靴、そしてレンタルヘルメットが参加の条件ですが、本当に最低限の軽装だなぁと感じました。結構な山道にこの服装なので冒険感がすごいです。日本だと多分乗馬用安全靴とかプロテクトベストみたいなものを着なきゃダメな気がします。この身軽さが海外～！という感じでした。
　でも腰や膝に持病がある方はしんどいかも。結構草丈がある場所も通るので長めの靴下でくるぶしもカバーした方が草まけの心配がないかと思います。
　春だからなのかわかりませんが、晴れたり雨が降ったりと不安定な天気で、日差しが強い上に小雨にも降られたので、日焼け対策としても寒さ対策としても長袖パーカーでちょうどよかったなと思いました。
●風景●
　素晴らしい絶景でした。雄大な山も美しい海も見られて大満足です。映画のロケ地にそれほど興味がなくても満足できるのではないでしょうか。ジュラシックパークシリーズが好きなので、映画のシーンの場所が見られて感動しました。
　個人的には植物が好きなので珍しい山の植物が見られるのも楽しかったです。サボテンが野生で生えているのが面白かったです。
●ガイド●
　英語がわからないので正直映画のタイトルと単語(右とか左とかストップとか)くらいしか聞き取れませんでしたが、映画のロケ地には看板や案内があるのでそれなりに楽しめました。
　ただ、乗馬コースでは帰ってくるまで馬から降りることはないので、近くでじっくり写真を撮りたかったり、映画のセットと一緒に写りたかったりするなら他のツアーの方がいいと思われます。ちなみに乗馬中にバスやバギーとすれ違ったので別々のツアーに申し込んでも途中で出会うのかもしれません。
　また、ガイドのお姉さんはフレンドリーな方で、ハワイに来て何日目だ海が綺麗だ等カタコトへっぽこ英語で話しかけても笑顔で答えてくださいました。
　でもやっぱり日本語のパンフレットでもあればなぁとは思いました。
●写真撮影●
　最初の説明ビデオで動画撮影は禁止で写真はOKと案内があります。写真ならスマホでもカメラでもいいようです。途中、ガイドスタッフさんが、乗馬の様子をご自身のスマホで一人一人撮影してくださり、終わったあとデータが無料でもらえます。ただ、iPhoneのAirDrop機能を利用してデータ送信してもらったのでAndroidだともらえないかも……。
　印刷された写真は売店前に写真販売コーナーがありそこで自分の写真を勧められます。買わなかったので覚えてないですが多分$15～$20くらいだったような。この辺は日本のテーマパークと同じスタイルだなぁと感じました。
●馬たち●
　よく訓練されていて道も覚えているようでさっさと進んでいきます。こんな軽装で馬に乗って本当に大丈夫かな？と思っていましたが、大人しいしかわいいしそんな不安は途中から忘れていました。
　ちなみに馬は全員男の子だそうで、私が乗った馬はギリアン(と聞こえました)君でした。
　機会があったらぜひまた乗りたいです。

Did the morning trip. Entertainment was great. Beautiful spot. Activities were good. Would recommend this activity

Great view, great people, great music, great activities. 10/10 would recommend again! It was a bit rainy at the beginning so be prepared, but otherwise my family had a wonderful time at the sand bar.

Everything was amazing! Julia is a Rockstar! Very patient and a beautiful person through and through!

This tour was very exciting.

My sister has done her first time horse riding.
She said the tour guide was so kind and her horse was so gentle and cute.

Mine was so aggressive and also was not good match with the guide horse.
I had to worried about my horse and the guide horse were not very close.
One time, my horse kicked the guide horse. It was sorry and a bit scary.

But the tour was so fun. My sister and me had a great time.

Next time, I want to try again but also try to run a bit with horse.
Because, my horse walked so fast. I think he wanted to run a bit.
One day, you guys would make the tour for the horse riding tour for experienced people.
If you guys would have that tour already, I would like to try next time.

We were so happy and excited to join this tour.
Guides were nice and funny, a lot of joking. Lol

One thing, we did this tour from 8am, check in time was 7:15 but the check in counter didn’t open when we arrived at 7:15. It was opened at 7:30.
So the most earliest tour should be noticed to show up at check in counter at 7:30.

Thank you so much for experience this tour. I will recommend my friends and also I will join another tour when I would come back to Hawaii.

I had a great time, so I don't have any regrets, but honestly, my overall experience didn't quite meet my expectations.

■ Weather, Timing, and Temperature
It was a sunny day in early April, but the wind was incredibly strong and cold. My hat without a chin strap flew away, and I had to give up eating my hamburger on deck because the vegetables kept blowing away. There were people in bikinis, but the sunlight was stronger than a typical summer day in Japan, so I think wearing a long-sleeve rash guard and long leggings while swimming is a safer choice. After getting out of the water, it was essential to have a long-sleeve cover-up or a large bath towel to wrap around me. It was just so cold.

■ About the Sandbar
I checked the tide chart and confirmed it was low tide before participating. However, the water was still up to my ankles, so it felt more like a shallow area than an island. The boat stopped in water about thigh-deep, and everyone was saying, "It's so cold!" as they disembarked. The shallow areas were warmed by the sun and felt somewhat like a hot spring, but it was still too cold for many to swim. The beach volleyball set up by the staff was somewhat lively, but it seemed difficult to play because of the wind. There might not have been any Japanese participants. It was nice to take photos against the backdrop of the majestic mountains and scenery like Kualoa. However, it's worth noting that the strong sea breeze made it impossible to expect a reflection of the sky like in the Salar de Uyuni. The sandbar is made up of broken coral, and while it was enjoyable to look at the coral fragments scattered around, walking barefoot was painful (the local staff were barefoot, but I couldn't imitate them). There was a warning that many people drop their accessories, so it's better not to wear them at all. I brought an underwater camera, but I felt that a smartphone in a waterproof case was sufficient for the sandbar. Personally, I preferred the "Phantom Island" tour in Ishigaki Island, which, although domestic, had a similar atmosphere and was an actual "island" without the cold.

■ Turtle Watching from the Boat
You can watch turtles taking breaths in the shallow coral reefs from the boat. There were quite a few, and they came close to the boat, allowing for good photos with a smartphone. The turtles were adorable as they opened their mouths to breathe.

■ BBQ on the Boat
You can enjoy hamburgers grilled on the boat. The well-cooked patties were crispy and delicious. There were also side dishes like boiled beans and fruits. Two types of small chips (Doritos and Lay's) were provided, and I took a bag home as a souvenir, which was appreciated. However, as mentioned earlier, it was challenging to eat on the deck due to the strong wind.

■ Snorkeling
Snorkeling takes place in the shallow areas around the coral reefs. You can choose from three types of equipment: life jackets, fins, and floats, depending on your skill level. For those who are not confident in swimming, having all three options is reassuring. I felt that a life jacket was essential for warmth as well. Once the boat is anchored, a staircase to the sea is lowered in the middle of the deck, so you can get into the water immediately. It was announced that those confident in swimming could jump in from another spot, but no one attempted it. Once in the water, I surprisingly got used to the cold, but my hands and feet started to feel numb from being in the water for too long, and it was still cold. It was said that turtles sometimes hide in the gaps of the coral, but unfortunately, I didn't encounter any that day. There were a fair number of tropical fish, but it felt a bit lacking. By the way, if you save some of the buns from the BBQ or bring back leftovers, the tropical fish will come to eat them, which I recommend. It took a fair amount of time to get everyone suited up and into the water, which might have contributed to the snorkeling time feeling a bit short. It was al

楽しかったので後悔はありませんが、全体を通して期待以上ではなかったなぁというのが正直な感想です。

■天候・時期・気温
　4月上旬の晴れの日でしたが、風がとんでもなく強くて寒かったです。あごひものない帽子はとんでいく、ハンバーガーは野菜が吹き飛ばされるので甲板で食べるのは諦めたほどです。
　ビキニの方もいましたが、日差しは日本の真夏以上に強いので、泳ぐときも長袖ラッシュガード長丈のレギンスが無難かなぁと思います。
　また水からあがったあとは上から羽織れる長袖や毛布代わりになる大きなバスタオルは必須でした。とにかく寒いです。

■サンドバーについて
　潮見表で干潮であることを確認して参加しました。
しかしくるぶしまでは水あったので、やはり島というよりは浅瀬ですね。
　船は太もも丈くらいの水深に止まるので、みんな冷た～い！といいながら上陸していました。
　浅瀬は日で暖められて温泉っぽくなっている部分もありますが、後が寒いのであまり泳ぐ方はいませんでした。
　スタッフさんが設置してくれるビーチバレーはそこそこ盛り上がっていましたが、やはり風で流されるのでやりにくそうでした。日本人は参加していなかったかも。
　クアロアなど雄大な山や風景を背に写真を撮れるのでそれは開放的で良かったです。ちなみに当たり前ですが海風が激しいのでウユニ塩湖のような空が写る水面は全く期待できません。
　サンドバーは珊瑚がくだけてできた洲で、珊瑚のかけらがたくさん落ちており眺めるのは楽しいですが、裸足で歩くのは痛いです(現地のスタッフさんはバリバリ裸足でしたが真似はできませんでした(^-^;))。
　アクセサリーを落とす人が多いと案内があったので、そもそも身につけないほうがよいでしょう。
　水中カメラを持っていきましたが、サンドバーに関しては防水カバーにいれたスマホで十分間に合ったなと感じました。
　個人的には石垣島の幻の島ツアーの方が国内だけど似た雰囲気でちゃんと“島”だし寒くなかったので、そちらの方が好きでした。

■船上からのウミガメウォッチング
　珊瑚礁の浅瀬で息継ぎをするウミガメを船上から眺められます。結構な数が見られ、船のすぐ近くにも来てくれてスマホでも十分写真が取れました。
　カプッと口をあけて息継ぎするウミガメはかわいかったです。

■船上BBQ
　船の上で焼いたハンバーガーを食べることができます。しっかり焼かれたハンバーグはカリッと香ばしくておいしかったです。サイドメニューに煮豆や果物などもありました。小さいサイズのチップスも2種類用意してあり(Doritosとレイズでした)一袋はお土産に持ち帰りました。ありがたかったです。
　ただ、前述の通り風が強くて甲板では食べるのはハードモードでした。

■シュノーケリング
　珊瑚礁の塊の周りの浅瀬でシュノーケリングです。
ライフジャケット、足ヒレ、フロート(棒状の浮き)の
3種類を個人の技量にあわせて選べます。泳ぎに自信のない方は3種類ある方が安心でしょう。
　私は寒さ対策的な意味でもライフジャケット必須だと感じました。
　珊瑚礁に船が固定されると甲板の真ん中に海への階段が降ろされるので、降りたら即海です。自信のある方は別の場所から飛び込んでもいいと案内がありましたが誰もチャレンジはしていませんでした笑
　入ってしまえば案外寒さには慣れましたが、長く水に浸かっている手足がかじかんでくる感覚がありやはり寒かったです。
　珊瑚礁の隙間にウミガメが隠れていることがあるとのことでしたが、この日は残念ながら出会えませんでした。熱帯魚はそれなりにいましたがちょっと物足りなかったです。
　ちなみにBBQの時のバンズを残しておくか、あまりがあれば少しもらってくると熱帯魚が食べに来るのでおすすめです。
　装備を着用して順番に海におりるまでそれなりの時間がかかるためシュノーケリングの時間が少し短かったのも物足りない要因のひとつだったかなと思います。狭いエリアに人が密集するので泳ぎにくさも感じました。
　シュノーケリング後に暖かいコーヒーや紅茶を出してもらえてありがたかったです。

■その他全体
　送迎バスは現地の方のようで、名簿の名前を呼ばれる以外は日本語の説明はありません。
　船上では日本語のスタッフさんがついてくれて、しっかりと説明をしてくれるので安心でした。最初に英語の人は甲板に、日本語の人は船内に、といったように場所移動をアナウンスしてくれるので遠すぎて聞き取れないといったこともないので安心です。
　映画のロケ地などの説明もしてくださって楽しかったです。
　BBQも含め、スタッフの方のサービスレベルはかなり高いと思います。

I loved the tour. Views were breathtaking and guides were very good. ATV was fun to ride. Worth the money!

We enjoyed the sandbar it was magical the service was great and friendly the timeng was perfect.

This was the best afternoon ever@ Everyone on the crew was just out of this world wonderful ❤️ The music was killer!!! Such beautiful voices! Lunch was great! Kayaking was calm and just a really nice afternoon on water.Snorkeling was also cool! Seen alot of really neat fish and a couple large ones in the mix! If I could do this everyday,I'd sign up forever! Aloha ,Mahalo

The staff was friendly, but all the information was provided in English.

First, I had no idea where to wait for the shuttle bus pickup, both going and returning. I ended up sharing information with other Japanese guests and just felt anxious.

After arriving, the explanations for the various activities on the ranch were only in English. I couldn't understand anything, and I only had a vague idea of where to gather. I almost missed out on some activities.

Driving the buggy was fun, but the explanations about the filming locations or Hawaii? Every time we stopped, there was about a 10-minute talk, but I couldn't understand anything and just stood there confused. We didn't get to see much of the filming locations either, so I think those who want to visit the filming sites should skip this tour.

Additionally, the helmets and goggles provided were wet and muddy, which was very unpleasant. Even before doing anything, just putting them on made me covered in mud.

The seat belts and seats of the buggy were also dirty, and my clothes got soiled that I had to buy a change of clothes. I recommend wearing clothes and shoes that are dark and can be thrown away.

Also, while driving the buggy, you inhale a lot of sand. They give you something like a bandana to protect yourself, but it doesn't help at all. I recommend bringing a mask to wear. Your throat might start to hurt. I was still spitting out dirt from my mouth, nose, and ears for a while.

If you don't have a strong desire to ride the buggy, even if you can't speak English or get muddy, the price is high, and the access from Waikiki takes time (we got stuck in traffic both ways), so satisfaction will be difficult.

Since it was our honeymoon, I wish we had chosen a different activity.

スタッフさんの愛想はよかったでしたが、
全て、英語での案内でした。

まず送迎バスのピックアップ場所が、行きも帰りもイマイチどこで待ったら良いのか分からず、他の日本人の方と情報共有をし、ただただ焦りました。

到着後も、牧場内でするそれぞれのアクティビティについて英語のみでの説明。
全く分からず、集合場所もなんとなくでしか分からず。
間に合わないところでした。

バギーの運転自体は楽しかったのですが、
ロケ地の説明？やハワイの説明？
停車する毎に10分くらい都度ありましたが、
全く何を言っているのか分からず、ただただ棒立ちです。
ロケ地自体も、そんなに見られたわけでもなく、
ロケ地に行きたい方は、このツアーはやめた方がいいかと思います。

加えて、
貸していただけるヘルメットやゴーグルが、
濡れていたりドロドロで、
非常に気持ちが悪かったです。
まだ何もしていないのに、装着するだけで、
泥まみれになりました。

バギーのシートベルトやシートも、
土で汚れており、服が汚れ着て帰られず、
替えの服を購入せざるを得なかったです。
黒系の汚れが目立たない、捨てても良い服、靴で行くことをおすすめします。

また、バギー走行中、大量の砂を吸い込みます。
ガードするバンダナ？みたいなものをもらいますが、全く効果ありません。
マスクを持参して着用をお勧めします。
喉が痛くなりそうです。
いつまで口と鼻と耳から土が出てきます。

英語が出来てなくても、どろんこになっても、バギーにどうしても乗りたい！
と言う気持ちが参加者全員になければ、料金も高いですし、
ワイキキからのアクセスも時間がかかるので(行きも帰りも渋滞にハマりました)、満足は難しいです。

せっかくハネムーンだったので、
ほかのアクティビティを選択したらよかったです。

Enjoyed the sandbar, the music, the crew, the ambiance, everything except the snorkeling - tide too low - did not need the mask (which was leaking anyway) to see the fishes. Loved everything else.

We truly enjoyed this 2 hour UTV tour with our witty guide. Fantastic nature, enough time for some history and photos. Would definitely recommend this tour.

I experienced a 2-hour horseback riding course. It was my first time riding, but the horses were very smart, so I was able to enjoy the experience without any particular anxiety. The staff primarily spoke English, but they were very accommodating, so I felt safe and had fun. They also took photos with my smartphone along the way, which made for great memories!

2時間の乗馬コースを体験しました。
初めての乗馬でしたが、馬たちがとても賢いので、特に不安もなく体験できました。
スタッフの方は基本的に英語ですが、しっかりと対応してくださるので、安心して楽しめます。
途中にスマホで写真も撮ってもらえるので思い出になります！

I was very excited for this event and it actually far exceeded my expectations. The ride to the sand bar was pretty quick however I wish it was longer because they had an amaaaazing live band. Kaawa Entertainment. I could listen to them forever. Unfortunately, we reached our destination, and I could no longer listen to them. However, playing in the sandbar was soooo much fun. I thoroughly enjoyed the kayaking and paddle boarding. They also had snorkeling which I didn't enjoy as much. But my wife really loved the snorkeling. The staff was extremely friendly and helpful. My wife and I both had trouble steering the paddle board initially and we were out of bounds. But the staff was very nice about it and helped us back in bounds. The sandbar is so amazing where you're in the middle of the ocean yet you are walking on sand. There were no waves so it was pretty easy to maneuver around. I could've stayed there for hours longer but the event was over. 10 stars out of 5. If you go please tip the staff and entertainment a looot. They really made the experience sooo much more fun. Highlight of our 8 day trip to Hawaii.

Although it was rainy at Kualoa, the weather here was great, and the staff were wonderful too. We were able to see many sea turtles, and I'm grateful to the staff.

クアロアは雨でしたが、こちらは天気も良く最高（スタッフも）でした。ウミガメも沢山見られてスタッフに感謝です。
