There were Japanese staff members present, which made me feel安心して参加できました! The movie location tour was great; the staff took photos for us and provided detailed guidance! The weather turned bad halfway through, but thanks to the staff, we had a wonderful time! I highly recommend it!
日本人のスタッフの方がいらっしゃり、安心して参加できました!映画ロケ地ツアーは、スタッフの方が写真を撮ってくださったったり、案内も詳しくして下さいました!途中から天気が荒れてしまったのですが、スタッフさんのおかげで楽しく過ごせました!オススメです!
Our driver Pua was so wonderful and made our trip so memorable !!!!!!
Thank you very much for your review and your email to our office. We will pass this on to Pua as she also mentioned to us that she had a great time with you and your family. We look forward to your return later this year =P

If you only do one thing here do the premier movie tour.. The afternoon cruise was a nice way to finish the visit
Great food, great service, friendly and attentive staff. The show was awesome would love to do it again when we come back in 2019!!
I was busy with work and couldn't go on a honeymoon. For our 30th wedding anniversary, I chose this tour to Hawaii for the first time. I kept the wedding ceremony a surprise for my wife. While we were on the cruise, enjoying Red Lobster and steak, the crew said they would take us to meet the captain, and we had the ceremony there. It was sudden, and my wife was overjoyed, thanking me for a lifetime memory.
仕事が忙しく新婚旅行に行くことが出来なかたった。今回初めてのハワイで結婚30年の節目にこのツアーを選びました。妻には、結婚セレモニーを内緒にサプライズにしておきました。クルーに入って、レッドロブスターやステーキを食べている時、船長にあわせてあげると言って連れて行かれセレモニーをして頂きました。突然のことで妻も、一生の思い出をありがとうと大喜びでした。
Thank you very much for choosing our cruise to celebrate your special day. The surprise vow renewal for your wife is truly wonderful! We are also very happy to hear that she enjoyed it. Please do come back together again. All of our staff are looking forward to welcoming you.

I only had the image of playing at Waikiki Beach when thinking of Oahu, but there are tours that allow you to experience the grandeur of nature, such as mountains and forests. Additionally, for movie lovers, this is an irresistible activity, and my husband and I were extremely excited just to be able to visit the filming locations of Jurassic Park, which we both love.
Here are my impressions in bullet points:
- I was thrilled to see the filming locations of Jurassic Park and Jurassic World in person. In particular, it was exhilarating to explore the sets that were used for filming while riding in a jeep. (Entering the cage of the Indominus Rex from Jurassic World and seeing the claw marks on the walls that were left from the time of filming was the most exciting part.)
- The ocean tour on the cruise was beautiful, and the splashes felt wonderful. We also saw quite a few sea turtles, which was exciting.
- For those who are not interested in movie locations, there are activities at Secret Beach, and you can also ride buggies through the magnificent nature, so I think you can still have a great time. We didn't choose the buggy activity, but watching the tour guests riding buggies next to us made me really envious. It looked like so much fun.
オアフ島と行ったらワイキキビーチで遊ぶというイメージしかなかったが、山や森などの自然も壮大さを体験できるツアー。
また、映画好きにはたまらないアクティビティであり、私たち夫婦は共にジュラシックパークが大好きなのでそのロケ地を見て回れるという時点で最高に興奮した。
↓箇条書きで感想。
・ジュラシックパーク、ジュラシックワールドのロケ地を生で観れたこと。
とくに、ロケ地で使ったセットがそのまま残っていてその中をジープに乗って探索することができとても興奮した。
(ジュラシックワールドのインドミナスレックスの檻の中に入れて、壁の爪痕なども映画当時のものがそのまま残っておりこれが一番興奮した)
・クルーズに乗っての海上ツアーでは海がとても綺麗でしぶきがとても気持ち良かった。
また、ウミガメもかなり見れてこれも興奮した。
・映画ロケにまったく興味ない人は、シークレットビーチのアクティビティがあったり、
バギーに乗って壮大な自然を疾走するのもあるのでそれでも十分楽しめると思う。
我々はバギーのアクティビティは選択しなかったのだが、横でバギーで走っているツアー客を見ていたらすごい羨ましくなった。とても気持ちよさそうだと思う。
Our guide was informative and personable. I had thought that a more complete tour was included, but we did get comprehensive into regarding behind-the-scenes operations. Unfortunately, we didn't allow enough time to explore the other areas.
This tour was filled with lots of information about the history of the island and the people. Pearl Harbour is a must see.
My wife and I had a great time. The scenery was amazing and we got some really good pictures. The food was really good also.
Great day. Whilst informative the tour guide did not stop talking for the whole time the bus was moving... He needs to review what he is passing on to the people.
Smooth pickup from the hotel (I was actually nervous since it was my first time).
The half-day tour of Oahu wasn't part of my original plan, but I'm so glad I went! It was amazing... especially Hanauma Bay, which has the most beautiful beach in the world and is definitely worth seeing.
The Polynesian Cultural Center is also a fantastic place to learn about Hawaiian and other regional cultures. I got to experience hands-on activities and demonstrations, and it was a day filled with laughter!
Japanese people... let's quickly throw away the feeling of embarrassment. There's no need to be shy; just be cheerful and enjoy! (laughs)
Thank you for a fun day! m(._.)m
ホテルからスムーズにピックアップ(実は初めてだからドキドキでした)
オアフ半日観光は当初の予定外でしたが行って良かったぁ‼最高…特に世界一キレイなビーチ、ハナウマ湾は一見の価値がありですよ
ポリネシア文化センターもハワイや他地区の文化を学ぶには最高⤴⤴です。手作り経験や実演をさせてもらったり、笑い転げた1日でした‼
日本人よ…恥ずかしいという気持ちは早く捨てよう。陽気に朗らかに楽しくシャイなんて要らないよ(笑)
楽しい1日をありがとうm(._.)m
It's unfortunate that the morning shuttle bus was too cold due to the air conditioning (laughs). For lunch, the buffet is better inside the house rather than outside where the birds come; a spacious building would be nice!
On a positive note, there was a mix-up with the order of activities upon arrival, but it was quickly corrected. After that, we smoothly enjoyed the attractions and had a memorable and fun day (the whole family is very grateful).
残念な事⤵…朝イチの送迎バスがエアコン利きすぎで寒かった(笑)、昼食のバイキングは鳥が来る外ではなくhouse中が良いですよ広い建屋がいいなぁ~
素晴らしい事…到着後食い違いでアクティビィの順番違いは有りましたが直ぐに修正、その後はスムーズにアトラクションをenjoy 想い出に残る楽しい1日を過ごさせて頂きました(家族全員大感謝です)
Pearl harbor is amazing, the tour around the city was good as well.Our tour guide was great and had lots of information to share about each site.
Wow what a wonderful day, the tour guide was fantastic and he made sure we were enjoying our Hawaiian experience. We were taken to many beautiful places and given plenty of time to experience them. He was very informative and made our day memorable.
City tour was very good. But no boat ride to the Arizona Memorial (hitide !!!!)
Wonderful full shop tour. Couldn't have been better. Would definitely recommend.
I participated in three attractions, and time flew by!
Since it was my first time in Hawaii, I wanted to experience these typical attractions, and I was very satisfied.
3つのアトラクションに参加しましたが、あっという間に時間が過ぎました!
ハワイが初めてだったので、こういう普通のザ アトラクションを体験したかったので大満足です。
Saw much of the same sights by helicopter Sat. Nice to see up close and personal. Ken was a great guide, very helpful. Nice group.
We had a wonderful time on the Star of Honolulu dinner cruise. Met really nice people. The Crew was a lot of fun teaching us the hula. The sunset was beautiful. The food was great. Very organized.
I had a great time! If I could wish for anything, I would have liked to relax a bit more in Haleiwa. My stay in Haleiwa was only about an hour as I was heading to go horseback riding. The garlic shrimp place I was aiming for opened about 15 minutes late, so I had to hurry and scarf down the garlic shrimp. It was delicious, but I wanted to savor it more and check out other shops as well.
とても楽しかったです!欲を言えばハレイワでもう少しのんびりしたかったなぁ。乗馬に向かうためハレイワ滞在は一時間位でした。お目当てのガーリックシュリンプ屋さんの開店が15分ほど遅れて急いでガーリックシュリンプをかきこむことに。美味しかったけどもっと味わいたかったし、他のお店も見たかったです。
Excellent bus driver he was very personable. Enjoyed the visit to the Arizona memorial very much do much history should not be forgotten
Loved this tour, zoom was a great guide and could tell us a lot of inside sories;) we went to grat places and points with a great view
Everything we could have hoped for!
Service & courtesy was outstanding!!
Last year, I participated in this tour alone while my family went shopping, but this time they said they would join, so I participated for the second consecutive year.
The tour guide was a woman named Erika, and my companions were a young couple from Australia and an elderly couple living in LA who joined us locally. Since it wasn't a Japanese guide, a certain level of English proficiency is necessary, but Erika spoke slowly and clearly about the tour's points of interest and plant explanations, so even if you're not great at listening, you might not need to worry too much.
The itinerary wasn't too hard, but it seemed to have rained just before (it drizzled a bit during the tour), making the ground slippery, which required some caution. Because of this, the pace of the elderly couple slowed down, and we ended up taking longer than planned, which made us late for the next activity (the Australian couple seemed to continue on to an MTB tour). As a result, we had to take a taxi arranged by the guide to return, which was an unusual schedule (of course, the cost was covered by the tour).
Once we entered the mountains, the humidity was high and it was muggy, so it's better to dress coolly. However, since there are mosquitoes and to prevent injuries from branches and stumps, I recommend participating in long sleeves and long pants, and sturdy athletic shoes (though your shoes will get muddy).
Continuing from last time, we also saw the wild (though an introduced species) spotted poison dart frog, and you can enjoy a completely different side of Oahu compared to Honolulu, so I think it's a recommended activity.
昨年、ショッピングに行く家族と別行動で1人でこのツアーに参加したのですが、今回は家族も行くと言うので、2年連続で参加しました。
ツアーガイドはERIKAさんと言う女性、同行者はオーストラリアから来た若いカップルと、現地で合流して来たLA在住の老夫婦でした。日本語ガイドではないので、ある程度の英語力は必要ですが、ツアーでの注意点とか植物に関する説明などは丁寧にゆっくり喋ってくれるので、ヒアリングが苦手でもそんなに気にしなくていいかもしれません。
行程はそんなにハードではありませんが、直前に雨が降ったようで(途中も少し降られた)、滑りやすく、神経を使いました。そのせいか、老夫婦のペースが上がらず、予定より時間がかかってしまった為、次の予定(オーストラリアのカップルは引き続きMTBツアーに参加するようでした)に間に合わなくなったようで、帰りはガイドが手配したタクシーで帰ると言う変則的なスケジュールになりました(もちろん費用はツアー持ちでした)。
山に入ると湿度も高く、蒸し暑いので、涼しい格好の方がいいですが、蚊もいるし、木の枝や切り株などで怪我をするのを防ぐ為にも、長袖と長いパンツ、足元はしっかりした運動靴で参加する事をお勧めします(ただし、靴はドロドロに汚れます)。
前回に引き続き、野生(移入種ですが)のマダラヤドクガエルも見られたし、ホノルルとは全く違うオアフ島の一面を楽しめるので、お勧め出来るアクティビティーだと思いますよ。
Unfortunately, it seems that the whales went towards Canada, so we couldn't go whale watching. I'm disappointed that it looks like I won't be able to use the tickets before they expire! I'll try again next year.
あいにくクジラたちはカナダの方へ行ったようでホエールウオッチングは叶いませんでした。
頂いたチケット期限に使えそうもなく残念!!又来年トライします。
Thank you very much for joining our whale watching cruise.
We are very sorry that you were unable to see any whales.
The next season will start in just a few months!
We hope you will come back for another try.
All of our staff are looking forward to welcoming you.

We enjoyed doing this Circle Island tour, very informative tour, our driver Keith was nice, and explained every landmark places. We took the Ali Luau package so we can go around inside the villages with our own time as we have a small kid to walk. The Ha Breath of life was fantastic show.
Amazing from start to finish! Ami our guide was fabulous she has great charisma and really enjoys her life with the show and this is passed on during the tour - so much that we felt as if we were almost part of the five o family too( would be great!!!!!) The tour was delivered at the right pace - nothing was rushed, lots of time for questions, great inside information given with fabulous humour! Also this tour is small so it is personal,you see all the locations in the show ( characters houses etc) and we were lucky enough to visit and go inside Steve McGarretts house. THe owner was wonderful and spent time talking to each of us - she is divine! All in all a first class trip delivered by amazing people. Thank you so much - this is one experience to cherish.
Amy from Hawaii Jeep and Specialty Tours was really fantastic, up to date information and knowledgeable in relation to Hawaii Five O filming. Knows where their latest filming locations are, had movie scenes on the iPad to line up with location that where filmed.
Excellent Tour - very happy
My first hike in Hawaii was an experience beyond my expectations. When I arrived at the entrance, I received water and snacks and prepared by applying insect repellent. There is also a rental option for waist pouches. There were seven other foreign participants besides me. The guide spoke only in English, so it might be tough if you don't speak any English at all. The jungle itself was easy at first, but in the second half, there were steeper inclines and muddy areas, and I definitely worked up a good sweat. The bananas we ate at the destination were delicious! The tour itself was fantastic, but I had to call after waiting over 30 minutes for the pickup. I connected directly with the guide, who mentioned that they had gone to a different location for some reason. The pickup arrived in about 10 minutes, but waiting in the heat was quite tough. However, I was satisfied with the tour! I highly recommend it.
ハワイで初めてのハイキング、思っていた以上に素晴らしい体験でした。入口前に到着すると、水、スナックを貰い、虫除けを掛けたり準備します。ウエストポーチのレンタルもあります。参加者は私以外に7名の外国人。ガイドももちろん英語オンリー、英語が全く出来ないと辛いかも。ジャングル自体は、最初は楽チンですが、後半思っていたより傾斜があったり、泥濘もあり、しっかり良い汗をかきました。目的地で食べたバナナの美味しかったこと!ツアー自体は最高だったのですが、ピックアップタイム30分過ぎても迎えが来ず、さすがに電話。ガイドに直接繋がり、私への案内と何故か違う場所に行ったとのこと。10分程で迎えが来ましたが、かなり暑い最中に待っていたのでそれが辛かったです。しかし、ツアーは満足です!オススメです。
Thank you for joining us, Hiroko.
Mahalo for joining us Hiroko
On the cruise, I was able to see manta rays and sea turtles swimming. Since my child is small, we couldn't use the stroller, but I would definitely like to visit again when they are old enough to ride.
クルージングでは、マンタやウミガメが泳いでいるのを
見ることができました。
子供が小さいのでバギーには乗れませんでしたので、乗れるような歳になれば
またぜひ遊びに行きたいです。
