All Reviews for Sightseeing / Guided Tours

There were many places of interest on the island that I hoped to see, and I was guided to all of them. Even though I hadn't requested a lunch stop due to time constraints, they suggested a great restaurant and took me there. They also stopped at several scenic spots along the way. It was truly beyond my expectations, and I was very satisfied! The conversation was engaging and easy to understand, which made it the best experience! 👍

島内の名所で希望が多かったのですが、全て案内してくださって、しかも、お昼ご飯は時間的に余裕がないのでリクエストしていなかったのですが、良いお店を提案して寄って下さったり、途中で景色の良い場所にも幾つか寄って下さって、本当に思ってた以上で大満足でした！
お話も上手で分かり安く最高でした👍

I purchased a four-day ticket and used it. I was able to fully utilize the four days and easily go to the places I wanted to visit. If you prepare your time and destinations well, you can truly appreciate the convenience. I think I will use it again.

4日間のチケットを購入し、利用しました。４日間フルに使って、行きたいところに楽に行くことができました。時間と行先さえしっかり準備しておけば便利さを実感できます。
また利用すると思います。

The driver was very cheerful and it was fun. Thank you very much.
I heard they can communicate in English, but that was not a problem.

とても明るいドライバーさんで楽しかったです。ありがとうございました
英語対応との事でしたが問題ありません。

Thank you for the enjoyable and efficient six-hour drive. I was able to enjoy various places. More than that, the fun conversations with Ken were impressive. I also appreciate the prompt and courteous responses to my updates via LINE beforehand. If there is another opportunity, I would love to do it again.

6時間の楽しく、かつ、効率的なドライブをありがとうございました。　いろいろな場所を楽しめました。　また、それ以上に、Kenさんとの楽しい会話が、印象的です。　また、事前のラインでの更新も、迅速丁寧な返信をいただき感謝です。
また、機会がありましたら、ぜひよろしくお願いします。

This cruise beat my expectations. The food was amazing and there was so much that none of us could finish. The outlook and entertainment were fantastic. My kids even got up and danced at the end and my 15 year old daughter told me several times throughout the night how much she enjoyed herself.... a pricey outing that was worth it...

The day before, I was forced to change the time without any explanation. I had already organized my schedule for that day, so it was very troublesome to have it changed without notice. I at least wanted an explanation. The driver was cheerful and a very nice person.

前日の昼過ぎに、何の説明もなく時間変更を余儀なくされた。その日1日のスケジュールを組み立てていたのに、勝手に変更されて大変困った。せめて説明をしてほしかった。
ドライバーの方は陽気な方でとてもいい人でした。

It was a wonderful show that felt very much like Hawaii. I had a lot of fun. The food was also delicious.

ハワイらしい素晴らしいショーでした。
とてもたのしい気持ちになりました。
お料理も美味しかったです。

I wanted to explore the northern part from the east, and after considering various options like buses or rental cars, I felt a bit anxious... then I found the perfect tour!

Our guide, Jonah, spoke fluent Japanese and provided a lot of information during the journey, allowing us to enjoy the beautiful scenery. With restroom breaks included, we hit all the key points, such as Leonard's Malasadas and the macadamia nuts from Tropical Farms (which I was curious about thanks to Risa Nakazato's recommendation, haha), along with China Man's Hat (where we even saw a honu!), and we had a lunch break at Kahuku Sugar Mill where we could eat whatever we liked! We got to enjoy Giovanni's famous garlic shrimp (and beer, since I wasn't driving!), explore Sunset Beach and Haleiwa, and savor local coffee at Green World Coffee Farm.

It felt like being taken around by a friend who lives there, and the tour was a perfect blend of what travelers are curious about and a chance to learn about Oahu. Thank you!

東から北の方にも行ってみたいが、バス？レンタカー？と色々選択肢を考えたが少し不安…ってところにちょうどいいツアーがありました！
ガイドのジョナさんが流暢な日本語で、移動中もたくさん紹介してくれ、綺麗な景色を楽しめました^-^
トイレ休憩含め、ポイントを押さえてくれているのでレナーズのマラサダやトロピカルファームのマカダミアナッツ(仲里依紗ちゃんオススメで気になっていました笑)、クアロナ・ランチ付近と併せてチャイナマンズハット(ホヌもいました♪)、カフク・シュガーミルで好きなもの食べてね～！ができるランチ休憩(メジャーなジョバンニのガーリックシュリンプ実食&(運転しないから可能な)ビール堪能！)、サンセットビーチやハレイワ散策、グリーンワールドコーヒーファームで地産コーヒー堪能♪

現地に住んでいる友人に観光に連れていってもらった感覚で、旅行客が気になることとオアフ島を知ってほしいを集約させたようなツアーでした♪
ありがとうございました！

I was quite anxious and flustered because the pickup time was significantly delayed. The pickup location, diagonally across from Gyukaku, had a sign in katakana that said "marijuana," which made me even more uneasy.

Although the pickup time was late, the arrival in Haleiwa was on schedule, according to the driver.

In Haleiwa, I was able to leisurely explore places like Matsumoto Shave Ice, Garlic Shrimp, Balance Rock, Patagonia, and Green Room. I've participated in a tour with 3 hours of free time in Haleiwa before, but it felt rushed, so having 5 hours made me feel satisfied.

お迎えの時間が、かなり遅れたので大変不安になり焦りました。ピックアップの場所、牛角の斜め前はカタカナで看板にマリファナと書かれてあり、余計に不安でした。
お迎えの時間は遅れたけど、ハレイワ到着は定刻通りだよと(運転手さん)
ハレイワでは、ﾏﾂﾓﾄｼｪｲﾌﾞｱｲｽ、ｶﾞｰﾘｯｸｼｭﾘﾝﾌﾟ、ﾊﾞﾗﾝｽﾛｯｸ、Patagonia、ｸﾞﾘｰﾝﾙｰﾑなど、ゆっくりと散策できました。
ハレイワ3時間の自由行動のツアーにも参加した事ありますが、バタバタしたので、5時間あると満足できます。

You can board with a QR code, and there are multiple pick-up points. Most importantly, the female driver was fantastic and really energized the atmosphere inside the vehicle. We also had about a 10-minute stop at a photo spot, which was a lot of fun. If you go to Honolulu, I definitely recommend taking the Blue Line to explore the East Coast!

QRコードで乗車できるし、乗り場もあちこちから乗れるし、なにより女性ドライバーでしたがとても車内を盛り上げてくれるドライバーさんでした、途中の写真スポットも10分程の停車時間もありとても楽しめました。ホノルル行ったらぜひ東海岸周遊するブルーライン乗って欲しいです。

Kualoa Ranch’s Movie Tour gave a fabulous insight into a WWII bunker, film locations and movie stars. My only constructive criticism is that the time given in the bunker isn’t long enough to absorb the history. Would still recommend the tour

I walked with our guide Ryan in the heat.

He had a wealth of knowledge about plants, animals, and the land, and we enjoyed half a day.

Thank you very much.

暑い中ガイドのRyanさんと歩きました。

植物、動物、そして土地に関する知識も豊富で半日楽しめました。

ありがとうございました。

The staff at the ticket counter were smooth in their service and very pleasant. The trolley itself was comfortable, and it was a great time.

チケットカウンターの方の対応がスムーズで
非常に感じのいい方々でした。
トロリー自体も乗り心地が良く、いい時間になりました。

I had a great time. The ocean was very beautiful and amazing! In the morning, I jumped off the diving rock (it was quite impressive), enjoyed snorkeling, and had a blast in the water. In the afternoon, I did stand-up paddleboarding and strolled around Haleiwa a bit. I was able to play a lot throughout the day.

Everything was in English, so it might be difficult if you can't speak it at all, but the staff were very kind.

とても楽しかったです。海がとてもきれいで最高ですね！午前中は飛び込み岩から飛び込んだり（結構すごいですよ)、シュノーケルをして海遊びを満喫し、午後はサップをして少しハレイワの街を散策しました。一日中たっぷり遊べました。
全て英語なので全く話せないと難しいかもしれませんがスタッフの方はとても親切でしたよ。

You can enjoy a horse riding experience for about 70 minutes against the backdrop of the deep blue sea and the pure white sandy beach. Although it's horse riding, you will be walking slowly along a beautiful coastline, making it a very soothing experience. It's charming when the horse occasionally stops to take a break. Since it's on a large private property, there are hardly any people around, creating a completely extraordinary experience. The horses are well-trained, so you hardly need to use the reins. They automatically follow the horse in front, almost like self-driving. Looking back, this was the most wonderful experience of my trip to Hawaii.

真っ青な海と真っ白な砂浜を背景に約70分乗馬体験できます。乗馬といっても素敵な海岸沿いをゆっくりゆっくり歩きますので、とても癒される体験です。途中馬が歩みを止めたりするのもご愛敬。大きな私有地の中なので、ほとんど人もおらず、完全な非日常体験になりました。馬は、よく訓練されているので手綱裁きをほとんど不要です。勝手に前の馬についていくので、自動運転みたいなものでした。今回のハワイ旅行中もっとも素敵な体験であったと振り返りました。

I learned that Hawaii's plants and flowers include both native species and introduced species from Oceania and other regions. The explanation provided by the two participants was thorough and attentive. Making leis was also a wonderful, unique experience.

ハワイの植物、花には固有種とオセアニアなどからの外来種があることが良く分かった。参加者が小生ら2人で説明は丁寧に伺った。レイ作りも非日常体験で良かった。

It was great that I could go at my own pace. Since I don't usually exercise, there were times when it was tough to reach the summit. However, when I got to the top, I was filled with a sense of accomplishment. The view of Waikiki from there was breathtaking. I would love to join this tour again someday. Next time, I think I'll choose a time when I can see the sunrise.

マイペースで行けるというのが非常に良かった。自分は普段から運動してないので、頂上まで苦しいこともありましたが、。頂上に着いた時は達成感でいっぱいでした。そして、そこからのワイキキは絶景でした。またいつかこのツアーに参加したいです。次は日の出が見られる時間のにしようと思います。

Great time Luau with all the fun, food, and Entertainment you need. The price is a little high, but well worth it for a great evening. Not out of line with other high end complete evenings with food, and entertainment like dinner and shows, or a concert, or a sporting event.

We weren't able to go on the memorial, I understand that, but Ranger who talked on the boat over should be given another job! One, she had to read off a paper about what happened on Dec-7. many times she lost her place and had to start over! If I couldn' t remember what happend I'd give on my job! Volunteer on Missouri was terrific,older retired military, very good presentation,knew what the hell he was talking about unlike the woman Ranger!

It was an awesome experience, made even better with our tour guide and driver, Elsie she rocks!!

On the day I used the trolley bus, there was a festival on Kalakaua Avenue, and it was a pedestrian paradise. Because of that, we had to detour via Kuhio Avenue towards the Ala Moana Shopping Center. The roads were crowded, but the driver was cheerful and chatted a lot, which made it enjoyable.

トロリーバスを利用した日は、カラカウア通りでお祭りをやっていて、歩行者天国でした。
そのために、クヒオ通りを迂回してアラモアナショッピングセンター方面へ行きました。
道路は混んでいたけど、運転手さんが陽気な方で、色々喋ってたから楽しかったです。

You will enjoy the train ride with people who are having fun in the maze. After dropping off at Dole, those going horseback riding will spend about 30 to 40 minutes shopping and using the restroom before heading out for the ride.

Since we pass through the town of Haleiwa first, we will explain the locations of restrooms and popular spots often visited by Japanese tourists while heading to the Mokuleia horseback riding area.

Even if it's your first time riding, I think you'll feel comfortable. There is a QR code for a Japanese explanation video that you can scan and watch. There is also an explanation in English. You will be told the name of the horse you will ride before setting off. The view of the beach is very beautiful and moving. You can take photos and videos with your smartphone, and at the turnaround point on the beach, you can also have pictures taken. You will be walking in an area with very little shade.

After that, we will move to Haleiwa, where you can have lunch at your preferred spot. After checking out a few shops, it was almost time to gather again. Matsumoto Shave Ice had an incredible line, so I couldn't manage to get any.

The driver was very talkative, and I was able to hear various interesting stories. For those who can drive, renting a car and going on your own would allow for a more leisurely experience, but for someone like me who can't drive, this tour was very appreciated.

送りはドールで電車、迷路を楽しむ人と一緒です。ドールの方を降ろし乗馬の人はドールで30〜40分ほど買い物、トイレをして乗馬に出発します。
ハレイワの街を先に通過するのでお手洗いの場所や日本人がよく訪れる場所の説明をしながらモクレイアの乗馬場へ向かいます。
乗馬は初めてでも安心して乗れると思います。日本語の説明動画をQRコードで読み取って見られました。英語での説明もあります。自分が乗る馬の名前を教えてもらい出発します。ビーチが見えるととても綺麗で感動します。スマホで写真や動画の撮影もできますし、折り返し地点のビーチでは写真も撮ってもらえます。日陰がほとんどない場所を歩きます。
その後ハレイワに移動しますが昼食を好きなところでとってお店を何軒か見たらすぐに集合時間でした。マツモトシェイブアイスはすごい行列なので無理でした。
運転手の方はとても話好きで色々な話が聞けました。とても興味深い話でした。
車の運転ができる方はレンタカーを借りて自分で行ったほうがゆっくりできますが、できない私にはとてもありがたいツアーでした。

I previously used a HIS package tour and found it very convenient, so for this individual arrangement, I applied here. This time, I utilized three routes. The local drivers often provided explanations in Japanese and were very enjoyable to be around. Additionally, the drivers were quite humorous and mentioned that the stopping times were carefully scheduled, which can be quite demanding. However, I believe this is due to the fact that it is managed by a Japanese company, ensuring strict oversight. While there may be delays due to road conditions, I think it’s reassuring that they won’t leave early, which is appreciated by Japanese people who are used to punctual transportation.

以前HISのパックツアーで利用した事があり使い勝手が良いので、個人手配の今回はこちらで申し込みしました。
今回は３ルートを利用しました。
現地の運転手の方は日本語で説明をしてくれたり楽しい方が多いです。あと運転手の方が面白おかしく、停車する時間がきちんと細かく設定されていて大変だよーと話していましたが、これはやはり日本の企業が運行している事できっちり管理されているという事だと思います。道路の事情で遅れることはあるかもしれなくても、時間前にさっさと出発してしまう事はないという事だと思うので、時間通りにきっちりした交通機関に慣れている日本人にとってはありがたいと思います。

The driver was very kind, and I had a great time. They recommended delicious restaurants and told me about the Huli Huli Chicken, which made for a tasty takeout dinner. For first-time visitors to Hawaii, this is definitely a must-visit!

ドライバーさんがとても親切で、楽しい時間を過ごせました。美味しいレストランを教えてもらいましたし、フリフリチキンも教えてもらって、テイクアウトで美味しい夜ご飯になりました。ハワイ初めての人は、絶対行くべきです‼️

Thank you very much to staff member Jonah for your help. Since we climbed Diamond Head early in the morning, it was not hot and felt great. After that, I was very impressed to be able to eat malasadas at Leonard's, which was not on the course. Thank you for taking me to Balance Rock as well! The ocean at Sunset Beach was incredibly beautiful, and it was a series of moving experiences! I was surprised by how delicious Giovanni's garlic shrimp was. I also enjoyed exploring Haleiwa, but it went by so quickly that I wished I had a little more time.

スタッフのジョナさん、お世話になりありがとうございました。
ダイヤモンドヘッドは朝早くだったので、暑くなく気持ちいい感じで登頂できました。
その後、コースにないレナーズのお店でマラサダ食べれて、とても感激しました！　またバランスロックにも連れて行っていただき、ありがとうございました！　サンセットビーチなど海がとっても綺麗で感動の連続でした！
念願のジョバンニのガーリックシュリンプの美味しさにビックリでした。ハレイワの散策も楽しかったですが、あっという間でもう少し時間があるといいなと思いました。

I was taken care of by Laura, who provided a lot of guidance on Hawaiian history and even the Hawaiian language. I recommend it for those who are comfortable with English listening.

ローラさんにお世話になりましたが、ハワイの歴史やハワイ語まで、たくさんのガイドをしてくださいました。英語のリスニングが苦で無い方にはおすすめです。

It was a very easy-to-understand and enjoyable tour since we had a Japanese guide. At the Dole Plantation, we got to ride a pineapple-colored train and eat pineapple ice cream. It was delicious, but the portion might be too much for one person. In Haleiwa Town, I had an avocado cheeseburger at "Kua Aina." The taste was exquisite. Although we traveled by bus, it was comfortable. Everything was great!

日本語ガイドだったので、とても分かりやすく、楽しいツアーでした。ドールプランテーションではパイナップル色のトレインに乗れ、パイナップルのアイスクリームを食べることが出来ました。美味しかったけど、一人では量が多いかも。ハレイワタウンでは「クア・アイナ」でアボカドチーズパーがーをたべました。味が絶品でした。バスでの移動だったけれど、快適でした。すべて良かった！

I spent a relaxing five hours in Haleiwa. Along the way, during a mini tour, I was able to see sea turtles up close at the rocky area behind the Balance Rock. Last year, I saw them at Ka'ena Bay Beach, where you can find sunrise shells, but there were even more this year. It was unexpectedly enjoyable!

５時間ゆったりハレイワで過ごしました
途中、ミニツアーで立ち寄ったバランスロック裏の岩場でウミガメを近くで見ることができました　昨年はサンライズシェルが取れるカイアカ・ベイ・ビーチでも見れましたが今年の方がたくさん　思いがけず楽しかったです

In recent years, I have often used a bike for transportation, but since my range of movement was limited, I decided to book a trolley for the first time in a while. I found it convenient because it allows access to various places, but unfortunately, there are few lines available except for the pink trolley.

The photo is from when I used the Malama Line and got off to do some sightseeing. After visiting the main tourist spots, I tried to catch the next trolley, but I ended up waiting for a while at the trolley bus stop because I had some extra time. I also wanted to hike Makapu'u on the East Oahu Scenic Line, but since there was quite a long wait for the next trolley, I decided against getting off and just enjoyed the view from the bus window.

Additionally, some drivers speak broken Japanese and do their best to explain the tourist spots, but since everything is in English, I couldn't understand much. Due to the weak yen, prices are high, but it is relatively empty, which makes it comfortable. I would like to see the revival of coupon services like free one-day passes with the purchase of the Lealea Magazine or discounts on multi-day passes, as we had before.

近年はビキを利用して移動することが多かったのですが、行動範囲が限られてしまうため、久しぶりに今回トロリー を申し込みました。
色々な場所に行けるので便利だと感じましたがいかんせん、ピンクトロリー を除くラインの本数が少ないです。
写真はマラマラインを利用して途中下車し、観光した時の写真ですが、観光スポットを一通り回って次の便に乗ろうとしましたが、時間が余ってしまい、トロリー のバス停でしばらく待ちました。
東オアフの絶景ラインもマカプウトレッキングしたいと思っていたのですが、次の便が来るまでかなり時間が開いていたため、下車を断念し、バスの車窓から眺めるだけにしました。
また、運転手さんによっては日本語がカタコトの方がいらして一生懸命観光スポットの説明をしてくださるのですが、全て英語のため、あまり理解できませんでした。
円安で価格が高い事もあり、比較的空いているのでその点は快適です。
以前の様にレアレアマガジン購入で一日券無料や、数日券割引などのクーポンサービスを復活させていただきたいです。

I was looking forward to going to Tropical Farm and Haleiwa this time. Although I chose the tour based on the itinerary when I signed up, I was handed a card outlining the day's schedule after being picked up. We made several stops at famous (Instagram-worthy) beaches, but it felt very rushed, with only 10 to 15 minutes at each location (and 1 to 1.5 hours for lunch and exploring Haleiwa). It was quite hectic, going in and out in the heat. Honestly, I wished we could just stay in the car at the beach for a bit. In the morning, we stopped for a restroom break and those who wanted to buy from Leonard's, which sells from a food truck, were given the opportunity. Since we had to eat in the car, the smell of oil was quite overwhelming for me, as I wasn't in the mood to eat at that moment. For lunch, it was also from a food truck, and I struggled to find something I wanted to eat in the heat. The only nice part was being able to sit down and enjoy a coffee at a café in Haleiwa. The driver spoke Japanese well, and our conversations were very enjoyable, but honestly, while this tour might be great for younger people, I found it lacking in satisfaction and ended up feeling tired. It's a shame...

今回はトロピカルファームとハレイワ方面に行くことを楽しみにしていました。申し込み時にツアーの流れを見て選んではいたものの、実際にピックアップしてもらい1日のツアーの流れを案内したカードを渡されましたが…。有名どころ（インスタ映えの）ビーチに細かく寄ったりしつつ、トロピカルファーム、ハレイワ、コーヒーファームにもよるということで、各所10〜15分（昼食とハレイワ散策のみ1時間ないし1時間半）で大変慌ただしく、暑い中出たり入ったりでした。暑い中での移動なので、正直途中のビーチはもう車待機したいなとも思いました。朝イチ、キッチンカーで売りに来ているレナーズを購入希望する人はどうぞっとトイレ休憩を兼ねて停車されました。車内で食べることになるので、今食べたい気分ではなかった私にとっては車内に広がる油の匂いはかなりしんどかったです。昼食もフードトラックなので暑い中食べたいものが見つからず。唯一ハレイワのカフェでゆっくり座ってコーヒーを飲むことができたのは良かったです。ドライバーの方も日本語が上手でお話は非常に楽しかったですが、正直ツアースケジュールとしては若い人同士ならいいかもしれませんが、私としては満足感に欠けて、疲れてしまう内容でした。残念…。
