All Reviews for Sightseeing / Guided Tours

A great tour to get you a day at Pearl Harbor alongside history of Waikiki!

For the price you can't go wrong! Good food, on the gorgeous waters, with local entertainment - 10 out of 10

A dream being a lifelong fan, this tour did not disappoint - DO THIS!

We loved this tour as it helped us navigate great parts of the island as we were nervous to get lost in all the wonder of Oahu!

Great shuttle getting us and a beautiful easy hike!

Family fun event, food was plentiful, and transportation was great for the adults to not have to worry about getting there and back!

Wonderful evening, great show and not really a bad seat in the house even going the classic level seating.

A bit crowded as they have a lot they can carry on the boat, but the entertainment was wonderful

This tour wrapped up in a perfect way with a trip to Pearl Harbor, lots of history, and a stop at the punchbowl was ideal for our family.

Lots of history detailed all throughout the park, giving you immense history on the Pearl Harbor events.

Delicious foods and fruits, and wonderful sites seen throughout the Oahu island!

I have been on this tour before and every time I have enjoyed myself. This time my nephew came and he enjoyed himself as well. The bus ride was very nice and the drive was very entertaining as well as knowledgeable. I would recommend this tour if you would like to see Pearl Harbor, USS Missouri and etc.

Thanks to the guide's recommendations for shops and sightseeing spots, I was able to move smoothly after getting off the bus! I also had the rare experience of seeing Hawaiian monk seals by the North Shore beach! It was a very enjoyable tour.

ガイドさんがおすすめのお店や観光スポットを教えてくださったおかげで、バスを降りたあとスムーズに行動することができました！
ノースショアの海辺ではハワイモンクアザラシも見れて貴重な体験ができました！
とても楽しいツアーでした

We efficiently visited the spots without wasting time. After climbing Diamond Head, I was able to use the restroom break to buy malasadas from Leonard's. I also had enough time to enjoy the garlic shrimp that I had been looking forward to.

I often find myself falling asleep on tour buses, but Jonah's stories were interesting and packed with information, so I was able to enjoy the ride without getting bored.

There was also plenty of time to explore the shops in Haleiwa. I think this course is highly recommended for those who want to see a variety of things without feeling rushed.

時間の無駄なく、テキパキとスポットを回ってくれました。ダイヤモンドヘッド登頂の後は、トイレタイムの時間をつかってレナーズのマラサダを買うことができました。楽しみにしていたガーリックシュリンプも時間に余裕をもって食べることができました。
いつもツアーバス内では寝てしまうことが多い私ですが、ジョナさんのお話は面白く、情報盛りだくさんなので、飽きることなく楽しめました。
ハレイワのショップを巡る時間も十分あり、こちらのコースは無理なく、しかし色々見て回りたい人にとてもおすすめだと思います。

Unfortunately, I couldn't go to the place I wanted during my free time, but thanks to the kind consideration of the tour company, I was able to participate in an optional tour. I enjoyed the quietly flowing time and the pleasant breeze, and I was able to see turtles in the vast ocean. At the power spot, I remembered my late husband and prayed for my family's health. I was also very satisfied with the coffee tasting and shopping, which were explained to me in detail.

残念ながらフリータイムで行きたかった場所に行けませんでしたが、ツアー会社の優しいご配慮でオプショナルツアーに参加させていただけました。静かに流れる時間と気持ちいい風、広い海にカメさんも見る事ができ、パワースポットでは亡き主人を偲び、家族の健康を祈れました。
コーヒーも丁寧に説明していただきながら試飲や買い物ができ大満足でした。

The bus ride was guided the whole time, but I couldn't understand what the guide was saying as a Japanese person. We were called for roll call 10 minutes before departure, so we only had about 15 minutes to enjoy ourselves, which wasn't enough time. In Haleiwa, 120 minutes wasn't enough to walk from one end to the other and enjoy a meal, so it's necessary to decide in advance where to go. The shrimp from Giovanni that I wanted to try was far away, and for some reason, the shrimp from Camaron wasn't open. Our return was scheduled for 14:15, but we were dropped off at the hotel at 15:15. I was happy that we got to pass by the Kapiolani Palace, even though we were stuck in traffic because of the parade!

ずっとガイドさんが喋ってくれながらのバス移動でしたが、日本人には何を言っているのか分かりませんでした。出発時刻の10分前には点呼されるので実質15分短い時間しか楽しめなくて時間が足りませんでした。ハレイワは120分では端から端まで歩いてご飯を楽しむことはできなかったので、あらかじめ行く場所を決めておく必要があります。食べたかったジョバンニのシュリンプは遠く、カマロンのシュリンプも何故か営業していませんでした。帰りが14：15の予定でしたがホテルに送っていただいたのは15:15でした。パレードで渋滞していたからか、カピオラニ宮殿の前を通っていただけたのは嬉しかったです！

Koloa was such fun. Our driver Davis was very informative.
Getting out of the vehicle being able to walk around on the grass at the sites was also good

Departing from Waikiki, we first arrived at the Dole Plantation right when it opened. We started with the Pineapple Express Train Tour. However, perhaps due to the timing of our visit, there weren't many pineapples planted. Instead, we saw vast fields of tilled land. Why!? It was a bit disappointing. I had imagined racing through a sprawling pineapple field. Maybe I was expecting too much.

However, the pineapple soft serve they sell there is absolutely delicious. It was definitely worth the trip just to try it. Be sure to give it a taste!

Next up was Haleiwa Town, which is very close by. This tour allows plenty of time to explore here, so I enjoyed leisurely strolling around the town, indulging in gourmet treats like garlic shrimp and shave ice, and searching for souvenirs. I was able to experience a local vibe of Hawaii that you can't find in Waikiki.

ワイキキを出発して、まず開園と同時にドールプランテーションに到着し、はじめにパイナップルエクスプレス・トレインツアーに参加。しかし、訪れた時期、タイミングがあまりよくなかったのか、あまりパイナップルか植えられていない。耕された畑が広がっている。なんで！？ちょっと期待外れで残念。広大なパイナップル畑の中を疾走して行くのを想像してたのに。期待しすぎだったかな。
ただし、そこで販売してるパイナップルソフトクリームは絶品。わざわざ食べに来た価値あり。是非ご賞味あれ。
次のハレイワタウンはすぐそば。このツアーはここで散策する時間もたっぷりあるので、ガーリックシュリンプやシェーブアイスなどのグルメ巡りや街ブラ、お土産探しなど、ゆったりと街中の散策を堪能できました。ワイキキでは味わえないローカルな雰囲気のハワイを体験することができました。

On the morning of the day, we arrived at the location while listening to our driver Matthew's enjoyable stories (I only understood about half of it, though) in the pleasant weather. We had a sufficient two hours, and we took our time climbing while taking lots of photos. When we reached the top, we saw a rainbow in the distance. I was moved and truly felt that it was worth coming. As we slowly descended and bought souvenirs, I was happy to receive some water. Thank you for a wonderful experience!

当日朝、心地よい天気の中、ドライバーのマシューさんの楽しいお話を聞きながら(半分くらいしか理解力ありませんでしたが)現地に着きました。2時間という十分な時間があり、写真をたくさん撮りながらゆっくり登っていきました。登り切ったとき、遠くに虹が出ているのが見えました。感動して本当に来て良かったと思いました。ゆっくり降りてお土産買って戻るとお水をいただいて嬉しかったです。素敵な経験をありがとうございました！

The pickup was right on time! The driver was a local but couldn't speak any Japanese at all. They used a translation app for communication about the meeting time and such. I booked it thinking it would be reassuring since it said there would be a Japanese guide, but that was disappointing. However, there were only 9 people on the large bus, so the ride was very comfortable!

お迎えもピッタリの時間でした！
運転手さんが現地の方だったけど、日本語が全く話せなかったです。集合時間などの連絡は翻訳アプリを使ってました。
日本語ガイドと書いてあったから、安心だと思って予約しましたが、そこは残念でした。でも、大型バスに9名しか乗っていなかったので、車内は凄く快適でした！

The guide who came to pick us up was so cheerful that the trip there and back was never boring!

Diamond Head was not as tough as I expected, and I was able to enjoy the scenery while climbing. The view from the top was amazing, and when we came down, the guide was there to pick us up again, making the whole experience stress-free and enjoyable!

Thank you very much.

お迎えに来てくれたガイドさんが陽気すぎて行き帰りが全然退屈では無かったです！

ダイアモンドヘッドは思ったより過酷では無く景色を楽しめながら登れたし頂上の景色は最高でしたし降りたらまたガイドさんがちゃんと迎えに来てくれて全然ストレスなく楽しめました！

ありがとうございました。

I really love pineapples, and I wanted to visit the Dole Plantation, so I joined this tour.

When we arrived at the Dole Plantation, I was happy to receive a cold bottle of water for each person.

I was looking forward to riding the pineapple train and enjoying pineapple soft serve. I considered doing both the garden tour and the train, but the guide advised me that there wouldn't be enough time to eat the soft serve, so it was a good decision to just do the train. The train went around vast fields, and it was fun to see not only pineapples but also cacao and bananas growing.

I was greedy and ordered a variety of foods, but they were all big sizes, so those with smaller appetites should be careful (laughs). The pineapple ice cream is very delicious, so I recommend it! There were also various pineapple-themed items for sale, and I was happy to buy a unique sunburned Hello Kitty that I could only get here.

Even just riding the train and eating took up most of the time, so it might be better to eat and look around quickly.

I had planned to go to Giovanni's on the North Shore, but it was closed (?), and since it was far, I tried the garlic shrimp at Camaron, which was recommended, and it was also very delicious! It was easy to eat since there were no shells.

The guide provided various explanations on the bus, but since most of the participants were foreigners, the content was mostly in English, and I couldn't understand much. I thought I could have enjoyed it more if I were better at English. I want to study more (laughs).

The North Shore and Dole Plantation are far from Waikiki and hard to access, so I'm really glad I booked the tour! The guide was also kind, which made me happy! Thank you very much.

パイナップルがすごく好きでドールプランテーションにとても行きたかったのでこのツアーに参加しました。

ドールプランテーションに着いた時に冷たいお水を1人1本ずつもらえて嬉しかったです。

パイナップルトレインに乗りたかったのとパイナップルソフトを楽しみにしていました。
ガーデンツアーとトレイン両方にしようかと思いましたがソフトクリームを食べてる時間ないよとガイドさんにアドバイスを頂きトレインのみにして正解でした。
トレインは広大な畑を周り、パイナップルだけではなくカカオやバナナがなっているのを見れて楽しかったです。
食べ物を欲張って色々頼みましたがビッグサイズで1個1個が大きいので少食の人は注意が必要です（笑）
パイナップルのアイスはとても美味しいのでおすすめです！
買い物もパイナップルの物が色々売っておりここでしか買えない日焼けキティを買えて嬉しかったです。
トレインと食べ物を食べているだけでも買い物している時間が意外となかったので足早に食べたり見たりした方がいいかもしれません。

ノースショアではジョバンニに行くつもりでしたがやってなかった（？）のと遠いとのことでおすすめされたカマロンのガーリックシュリンプを食べましたがこちらもとても美味しかったです！殻もなくて食べやすかったです。

バスの中でガイドさんが色々解説してくれていたのですが外国の方がほとんどだった為ほぼ英語で内容が分からなかったので英語がもうちょっとできればもっと楽しめたのになと思いました。勉強したいと思います（笑）

ノースショアやドールプランテーションはワイキキから遠くてアクセスしづらいのでツアーを頼んで本当に良かったです！ガイドさんも親切で嬉しかったです！ありがとうございました。

Was great to walk inside the submarine, and felt how crowded it was for our sailors.

ドールプランテーションのトレインは思ってたより楽しかったです。最初に乗らないと時間が無くなってしまうので、最初に行くのが良いです。あちこちにネコがいて癒されました。小さい赤いパイナップルがあって珍しかったです。パタゴニアのハレイワ店でかわいいTシャツも買えて満足です。ガーリックシュリンプのお店（Camaron Shrimp Truck）がお休みだったみたいで食べることができなかったことが残念でした。

This was before the pandemic, but when I used it before, they guided us around places like Izumo Taisha. The conversation was enjoyable! I was expecting that again, but none of the drivers understood Japanese. It was better when they at least said they were studying. Ah… there was no guide, and the level has dropped. It was disappointing even though they took us to various places.

コロナ前にはなりますが、前に利用した際は出雲大社方面などはガイドしてくれていました。お話が楽しかった！それを期待して乗ったら、どの運転手も、日本語わかりません。勉強中ですって言ってくれたらマシな方。
あー…ガイドさんも居ないしレベル落ちたなと。色々連れて行ってくれても残念でした。

I wasn't very knowledgeable about the war, but they provided detailed information about that time. It was great that a Japanese person was the tour guide.

あまり戦争に詳しくなかったけど細かく当時のことを教えてくれました。
日本人の方がツアーガイドをしてくてたので良かったです。

I received detailed information about various characteristics of different places! Even during the travel, I was provided with trivia and guidance, which made the travel time enjoyable and not boring!

各地様々な特徴など細かく教えて頂きました！
移動中も豆知識など案内頂き移動時間も飽きずに過ごせました！

I have been going to Hawaii for many years and was aware of Kualoa Ranch, but I had avoided this attraction because I wasn't very interested in the Jurassic Park movies. However, after participating for the first time, I was greatly impressed by the scale and structure of the attraction. This time, I joined three tours: the Jungle, Movie, and Kualoa Farm tours, and I would like to participate in the remaining tours in the future if given the opportunity. Also, the staff members were really kind, and I’m very glad I participated in this tour.

ハワイに長年行っており、クアロア・ランチのことは知っていましたが、ジュラシックパークの映画にあまり興味がないので、このアトラクションを敬遠していました。しかし、初めて参加して、スケールの壮大さやアトラクションの構成に大変感動しました。今回は、ジャングル、ムービーとクアロア農園の３件のツアーに参加しましたが、機会があれば残りのツアーにも今後参加したいと思います。あと、スタッフの方々も本当に親切で、今回のツアーに参加して本当に良かったです。

Unfortunately, we had a few rain interruptions. Still, most of the tour seemed to drag. We couldn't see the plantation due to rain so we had a shopping tour. Driving along the coast there wasn't much to see. It was difficult to see beyond the trees along the road. The lunch stop venues were not very inviting. It seems this food truck area wasn't the best. I gathered that most of the people were disappointed.
I was able to take some photos at the blowhole stop. At Kualoa Park it was overcast and we only had about 10 minutes there. We had just enough time at the Macadamia stop to go into the store for a tasting and to buy things. It took 1-1/2 hours to get back to Waikiki. One couple brought their 3 year old child. He was screaming and crying for a good part of the tour. It might be an idea to limit long van/bus tours to children over 5 or so.

I joined the morning tour 😎. I caused some trouble along the way, but Masa-san helped me out 😅. During the trip, Masa-san provided explanations about the history along the route, which was very educational and enjoyable. The mini tour was also GOOD!

朝のツアーで参加😎色々トラブルで迷惑かけちゃったけどマサさんが対応してくれて助かった😅
道中もマサさんが通り沿いのヒストリー等を解説ガイドでとても学ばさせてくれて楽しかった。
ミニツアーもGOOD
