I've been to Kualoa several times, but this time I participated in a beginner-level mountain biking event with friends! I was worried since I don't usually ride a bike, but it was only at the beginning that I felt unaccustomed. By the time we turned back, I was getting used to the speed and wanted to ride even more! The instructor was fantastic! They were very responsive and kind, even when there was a gear issue along the way. Surrounded by magnificent scenery, mountain biking became an incredibly fun memory! I definitely want to participate again! Next time, I want to challenge myself at the intermediate level!

クアロアへは何度か行ったことがありますが、今回は友人とマウンテンバイク初心レベルに初参加しました！
普段自転車も乗っていないので心配でしたが、乗り慣れずは…最初だけ。折り返しの道のりでは、スピードにも慣れてもっと乗りたい気分でした！
インストラクターの方もサービス満点！
ナイスロケーションでのショットや途中でギアが外れてしまうトラブルにも敏速に親切な対応^_^
壮大な素晴らしい景色に囲まれてマウンテンバイクは最高に楽しい思い出となりました！
また是非、参加したいです^_^
次回は中級レベルに挑戦したいなー(^｡^)

Highly recommend this tour! Awesome staff and best experience during our vacation in Oahu!

Last year, when I came to Hawaii, I rode a Segway for the first time and had so much fun, so this year I participated for the second time. A flashy van picked me up at the hotel, so I recognized it right away. When we arrived at the shop, we started with signing the consent forms and then put on helmets, and each person began practicing slowly. Since I rode last year, I was surprisingly able to get on easily. The Japanese-speaking instructor was very friendly and engaging. Participants wear headsets, so we can always hear the instructor, which is reassuring. We actually rode on the road, going from Ala Moana Beach Park around Magic Island and checking out the art in Kaka'ako! It was so much fun that I want to ride again! Finally, I gave a tip and was taken back to the hotel!

昨年ハワイに来た時に初めてセグウェイに乗って楽しかったので今年も2回目の参加となりました。ホテルに派手なバンで迎えに来てくれたので直ぐに分かりました。店に着いたらまず承諾書のサインなどから始まりヘルメットを着けて一人一人ゆっくり練習が始まります。昨年乗ったので意外とすんなり乗れました。日本語の上手な日系のインストラクターさんが楽しく話してくれます。参加者はインカムを付けているのでインストラクターの話は常に聞こえるので安心です。実際に道路を走ってアラモアナビーチパークからマジックアイランドを回ってカカアコのアートなどを回りました！
楽しいのでまた乗りたいです！
最後にチップを渡してホテルまで送ってもらいました！

I think there are several catamarans, but the 1.5-hour ride was just right. The reception was easy to find as it was located on the 1st floor of the Outrigger Reef Hotel. The staff maintained a good distance, which I appreciated. The boat also had a restroom. I was worried about seasickness, but it was a clear day with calm waves, so I didn't get splashed and enjoyed a pleasant breeze during the fun cruising. Although I didn't see any sea turtles or dolphins, I was very satisfied with the views of Honolulu and Diamond Head from the sea. I definitely recommend experiencing this at least once.

カタマランはいくつかあるかと思うのですが、乗船時間が1時間半なのが丁度良かったです。受付もアウトリガーリーフホテル1Fにお店が入っていて分かりやすかったです。スタッフの方も良い距離感で、有り難かったです。船にはお手洗いもありました。船酔いが心配でしたが、快晴で波も静かな日だったので、海水が掛かることもなく、気持ち良い風を感じて楽しいクルージングでした。ホヌやイルカは見れませんでしたが、海からのホノルルやダイヤモンドヘッドを見れて大満足です。是非一度体験して欲しいです。

This was my second time doing the sand bar. Amazing Time! Crew was great and the experience was better. There were so many activity options in a safe environment. The music was better than expected.

The perfect sunset cruise! Beautiful view of Honolulu. Great buffet and great crew. Great live music and Luau performance. Nice experience to share with family and friends.
Dinner food was superb also, you get a free drink (Mai Tai) on the house.
The top deck is a great spot for pictures and videos of sunset and Waikiki Beach.
We had such a Great time.

Everything was okay, the server forgot to bring the welcome drink to us for more than 30 mins until we reminded him.

Really well organised activity with Kaimana Tours. Our driver Koa was excellent, providing lots of insights to the surroundings during our drive there. Pickup was on time, in a comfortable spacious van. We arrived and were first in line to get tickets which was simple and organised. The snorkeling gear was great, both sizing and quality for what we needed. I’d recommend going on the 6am pickup, as by the time we left at 11, it was getting really busy and there were not many places with shade. Kaimana offer umbrellas & chairs for hire too.

My friend and I enjoyed it so much ! It's 3 hrs fun! Book now and you won't regret it. It has free sandwich for lunch and juice but you can bring your own food too and your alcohol! Yay!

When traveling by boat, there were quite a few waves, and it was pretty rocky! Since there were only two groups, including us, the time spent being rocked by the boat was relatively short. However, I recommend taking motion sickness medication just in case there are more groups. (*^^*) At first, I thought it might be scary, but once I actually flew, there wasn't much sensation of floating, and it was so much fun! It was a precious and amazing time!

船で移動する時は、結構波もあってだいぶ揺れました！私達は、自分ら含めて2組だったので、あまり船に揺られる時間は短かったですが、何組かいる場合のことを想定して酔い止めを飲んでいくことおすすめします(*^^*)
初めは怖いかもと思っていましたが、いざ飛んでみるとそんなに浮遊感もなくとっても楽しかったです！貴重な最高の時間でした！

Both my wife and I are in our late 50s, while the other two couples are younger. Although we both ride motorcycles, we were a bit worried about keeping up with the younger crowd. After a brief 10-minute lecture, we were ready to ride. I think the Japanese guide was very good at teaching.

Since we ride standing up, the view is great, and we moved at a jogging pace, which allowed us to look around leisurely. At Ala Moana Beach Park, we were allowed to go onto the grass, and it was a fun experience being waved at by people sunbathing on benches while also being chased away by park rangers.

The weather was nice, but the sun was strong, so I put on a UV-cut parka. The feeling of riding was indescribably strange; the sound of the motor just echoed with a whoosh. Without hard tires and suspension, the bumps in the road were transmitted directly to us.

We even had someone take a video of us while riding, and with a break in between, the roughly two hours flew by. Including tips, it was quite an expense, but it turned out to be a unique experience. I would love to ride again.

I had seen the Jurassic Park movie, and it truly felt like being in the world of the film. It was my first time riding a horse, but the horse was well-trained and there were no issues at all. I was able to enjoy the scenery in a cute and relaxed way.

ジュラシックパークの映画を見たことがありましたが、まさに映画の中の世界。
乗馬は初めてでしたが、お馬さんも慣れており全く問題なし。
可愛くてのんびりと景色を楽しむことができました。

Since I had a layover in the country and planned to have some fun in Waikiki, it took some time to check my luggage and go through immigration, but they waited in an easy-to-find location.

国内乗り継ぎの間にワイキキで遊ぶ行程だったので、荷物を預けたりして入国までに時間がかかったのですが、わかりやすい場所で待っていてくれました。

They arrived to pick me up right on time. During the journey, they informed me how many minutes it would take to arrive, which made me feel at ease during the transfer.

予定の時間どおりに迎えにきてくれました。道中も何分に着くよと教えてくれて、安心して送迎してもらうことができました。

The weather was perfect! Unfortunately, we didn't get to see any dolphins, but it was still very enjoyable. My husband and I wore sneakers, which was a mistake. It's better to wear flip-flops or something similar. Also, if you go to the front of the boat, be prepared to get wet from the splashes; wearing something that can get wet makes it much more fun. My daughter and I were in regular clothes, but we enjoyed the thrill and the stunning views while getting completely soaked!

お天気にも恵まれて最高でした！残念ながらイルカには会えませんでしたがとても良かったです。夫とわたしはスニーカーを履いて行きましたがそれは失敗。ビーサンなどで行くのが良いです。また船の先端は水しぶきが凄く濡れてもいい格好で行くととても楽しめます。娘と私は普通の洋服でしたがずぶ濡れになりながらスリルと絶景を楽しんでいました！

The meaning of the title is something that those who have taken this tour would understand. I had the valuable experience of riding a horse through the great outdoors. At first, it felt nice to ride, but after two hours, it felt a bit long. For those who have never ridden a horse, it might be tough, so taking a buggy or bus might be better. Also, I found that there weren't as many tourist attractions at Kualoa Ranch as I expected, and when you opt for the shuttle service, the waiting time felt long. For those who are used to using Uber, I think choosing a plan without the shuttle would allow for more freedom of movement.

タイトルの意味は、このツアーに行った方であればわかると思います。大自然の中を馬に乗りながら進むという貴重な経験ができました。最初は気持ち良く馬に乗っていたのですが、2時間は少し長いと感じました。馬に乗ったことがない方は乗馬がキツイと感じるかもしれないため、バギーやバスの方が良いかもしれません。また、クアロアランチは思っていたよりも観光するところがなく、送迎付きにすると待ち時間が長く感じました。Uberを使うのに慣れている方は、送迎なしのプランにした方が自由に動けるので良いかなと思いました。

The staff was fun, and we quickly made our way to the sandbar. The sea was beautiful, and it became a memorable experience! Thank you very much.

スタッフさんも楽しくってあっという間にサンドバーへ
海は綺麗だし思い出になりました！
ありがとうございました。

My first parasailing experience was very enjoyable. The view from 150 meters above was amazing. The photos taken by the staff cost $40 plus a tip, so I didn't request them, but I asked a couple who boarded the boat with us to take pictures from below. All the photos turned out beautifully. Since the sun was hot, I recommend going around 8 AM!

初めてのパラセーリングとても楽しかったです。
150m上空から眺める景色は最高でした。
スタッフに依頼する写真は$40+チップなのでお願いしませんでしたが、船へ一緒に乗船したカップルにお願いし下から撮影してもらいました。どの写真も綺麗でした。
日差しが暑かったので、8時〜をオススメします！

This was my third visit. Some attractions were closed, which was disappointing, but I was able to ride Tornado and Shaka three times each. The staff were all cheerful and friendly, and I had a very enjoyable time. I especially appreciated the thoughtful care from the Japanese woman at the reception, who embodied the spirit of hospitality. I definitely want to go again next year!

今回3回目でした。アトラクションはいくつか閉鎖中で、残念でしたが、トルネードとシャカを3回ずつ出来ました。スタッフはみんな陽気でフレンドリーて、とても楽しい時間でした。特に受付係の日本人女性の方が、おもてなし精神で細やかな配慮をして頂きありがたかったですヨ^_^
来年も是非行きたいと思います♪

We participated as a group of three, and since we were able to ride together, we didn't have to share with strangers. A few years ago, when I went parasailing with another company, it was awkward to ride with someone I didn't know, so I was glad to enjoy this experience. We stayed at the Hilton, so we didn't need transportation. I would like to use this service again.

３人で参加しましたが、３人乗りにして貰えたので、知らない人と一緒に乗ることはありませんでした。何年か前に別のパラセイルに行った時は知らない人と相乗りで気まずかったので、今回は楽しめて良かったです。ヒルトンに宿泊で、送迎も要りませんでした。また利用したいと思います。

Every time we go to Hawaii, we participate in this zip line tour. The views while zip lining are amazing! The guide speaks only English. My husband and I don't speak any English at all, but we still have a great time.

ハワイに行く度、こちらのジップラインに参加します。ジップラインをしながら見る景色は最高です！ガイドは英語のみです。私達夫婦は全く英語できませんが、それでも楽しめます。

This was my favorite part of my visit to Oahu! The views are stunning! An absolute must see. Both my boyfriend and I had never gone snorkeling before, but this tour made it very simple, safe, and fun for us. The staff are all friendly and helpful. A must do if you are visiting the beautiful island of Oahu.

I waited nearby before the scheduled time at the airport, and the pickup was exactly on time. Most of the passengers were Japanese, and the driver only spoke English. He asked about the airline, but everyone was unsure. When I mentioned ANA, everyone else followed suit and said ANA, so I felt reassured.

空港まで、予定時間前に近くで待っていて、
きっかり時間通りのお迎えでした。
ほとんどが日本人で、英語のみのドライバーさんが、
航空機は何かと聞いたけど、早くてみなさんわからず、
　私がanaといったら、その後全員ana
といったので、多分大丈夫と思いほっこりしました。

After leaving the airport, I waited at two clearly marked spots for just under 10 minutes, but the large bus arrived smoothly, taking me directly to the Halepuna Hotel. The driver was cheerful and kind.

空港でて、２か所でわかりやすく待っていて、
10分弱待ちましたが大きなバスで、
スムーズに今回の、ハレプナホテルまですぐでした。
ドライバーさんも、明るく親切です。

It's hard to decide which experience to choose, but the electric assist mountain bikes are easy to ride even for us (a couple in our 50s) who don't ride bicycles regularly, and we can easily climb hills. Just be careful with sudden brakes on downhill slopes. We stopped at recommended spots along the way. The local staff were also very courteous in guiding us. Our clothes didn't get too dirty either. Above all, riding a mountain bike is truly the best way to experience Kualoa. The atmosphere allows for natural smiles and interactions with the foreign guests we were with. Unfortunately, our English skills... we couldn't fully understand the staff's detailed explanations at those spots.

どの体験をするか迷いますが、電動アシストマウンテンバイクは日頃自転車に乗っていない私達（50代夫婦）も容易に運転ができしかも楽に坂道も登れます。降り坂は急ブレーキに注意。途中オススメのスポットには停車。現地スタッフの方々も丁寧に案内してくれます。服装もさほど汚れることはありません。何と言ってもクアロアを肌で感じるには本当にマウンテンバイクは最高です。途中から同行の外国人の方々とも自然に笑顔を交わせるような雰囲気になります。残念なのは私達の英語力…。スタッフの方のそのスポットでの丁寧な説明が理解出来ず。

We participated as a group of three. I had heard beforehand that it would be difficult for three people to fly together, but on the day, it went smoothly and we were able to fly as a family. The ground staff were very polite and friendly, which made us feel at ease. The boat staff were quick and we were able to fly smoothly. We also got to know other participants, creating a sense of unity as we waved and applauded each other. We asked for photos, and they took many shots of various moments, surprising us with how clearly our faces were captured in the air. Since returning to the hotel, we've enjoyed looking back at them multiple times.

3人で参加しました。事前の情報では3人で飛ぶことは難しいと聞いていたのですが、当日はすんなりOKで家族揃って飛ぶことができました。
地上スタッフもとても丁寧で親しみやすくて安心できました。ボートのスタッフも手早くてスムースに飛ぶことができました。
他の参加者とも仲良くなれて、手を振ったり、拍手をしたりと一体感も生まれました。
写真もお願いしたのですが、いろんな場面をたくさん撮ってくれたうえに、空中での顔がはっきり写っていたのにはびっくりしました。ホテルに帰ってからも何度も見直して楽しんでいます。

This is an attraction where you can take a buggy tour around Kualoa Ranch, which is also the setting for Jurassic World! It felt like stepping into the movie, providing an incredibly extraordinary experience! The tour is conducted in English only, and since your clothes can get muddy, it might be a good idea to bring a change of clothes and some face wash!

ジュラシックワールドの舞台にもなっているクアロア牧場をバギーで1周するアトラクションです！！
まるで映画の中に入ったかのような臨場感でとても非日常の体験ができました！！
ツアーの案内が英語のみなのと、服が泥だらけになるので、着替えや洗顔など持参した方が良いかもです！

It was my first experience surfing, but with the guidance of Hans and Edd, I was able to stand up right away. They also captured it well on video, making it a wonderful memory. I highly recommend it!

サーフィン初体験でしたが、Hansさん、Eddさんの手ほどきですぐに立つことが出来ました。動画にもしっかり撮ってくれて、とても素晴らしい思い出になりました。おすすめです！

Great experience out with the boat crew in Sandbar. Music was great and the entire crew shared the mahalo spirit. Definitely recommend getting to harbor early for parking. I had to park on street but you can safely with other cars.

I made a reservation for the morning session, which lasts about four hours in total. First, be aware that there is hardly any parking available for the rental cars. If you can't find a spot, you might have to park on the street along the road. (When I left after the morning session, there were cars parked all along both sides of the road.)

There were some people who struggled to find parking and were running late, but they waited for them, so I don't think you'll be left behind. However, it might be a good idea to call if you happen to be late.

As for what to bring, you'll need a swimsuit, sunscreen, and towels. You can go snorkeling, but be careful not to step on the coral, as it can cause injuries. It would be reassuring to have some kind of water shoes for the ocean.

For stand-up paddleboarding (SUP) and kayaking, it's first come, first served, and there are plenty of them available, so just let the staff know when you want to go out. During this time of year, the tide was high, so we couldn't see the sandbar, but the water was shallow enough for beginners, which I thought was nice.

On the way to and from the boat, we also got to experience the local excitement of Hawaii, which was really fun! Mahalo!

私は、午前の部で予約しました。全部で4時間程度です。まずレンタカーの人は駐車場が全然ないので注意です。止められなかったら、道沿いに路上駐車しました。(午前の部終わって帰る時には道の両側に路駐だらけでした。)
駐車場停めるのに手こずって遅い人いたけど待ってくれてましたので、恐らく置いていかれることはないかと思いますが万が一遅くなった場合は電話した方が良さそうです。
持ち物は、水着、日焼け止め、タオルなど。
シュノーケリングができるのですが、サンゴを踏んでしまって怪我する恐れがあります。海で履く用の靴下みたいなやつあると安心です。
supやカヤックは早い者勝ちで数も多いのでやりたい時にお兄さんに言えば乗れました。
この時期は潮が満ちてかサンドバーは見れなかったが足がつく程度の海で初心者にもいいのかなと思いました。
行き帰りの船上ではハワイのローカルな盛り上がりも体験できてとっても楽しかったです！！
マハロ〜！
