I loved the sandbar! The service was outstanding!!! from the guy with the flower in his hat going over the rules and dancing. To the lifeguard that helped us attract fish while snorkeling. Most importantly, I am very happy with the service that was provided by the guy with the sun screen across with nose that gave us kayak and prattle boarding lessons. They all made me and my family comfortable and super welcomed!

This trip was amazing! Dan was patient with my daughter and I not being swimmers and got us comfortable in the water. We had the best time seeing all the beautiful fish and are excited for the next chance we can snorkel! Thank you so much for a wonderful experience! Photo taken by Dan!

Wonderful, my family was very happy and excited, an unforgettable experience

The experience was great. The crew and the live music were great. We love all of the availability of the water sports- paddle boats, kayaks, snorkeling, lounging on the barge. The lunch was served right away so we were on a full stomach and it gave a chance for any late strivers to come on board.

Overall just a beautiful experience. The crew was super friendly, and super helpful with first time paddle boarders, snorkeling, and Kayak-ing people . The floating deck was awesome! I have been on a few other afternoon water excursions, by far this was the best one! Croissant sandwich was tasty and brought my own drinks! My kids are teenagers and they Also had a blast with all the activities ! This Trip was perfect for the entire family.. you won’t regret it.

The signal to encourage the horse is probably the sensation of pressing your heels against its belly... It seems that tapping around the arch of the foot doesn't convey the message.

Everything was great. We saw turtles and enjoyed the reef. It was a little difficult to eat lunch on the boat as there were not really any good seats for it. But the burgers were delicious.

Great service and hospitality. This is well worth your time and money.

My daughter and I enjoyed our first helicopter ride with Paradise Helicopters. We got to see so many beautiful parts of Oahu. Our favorite part was landing on the mountain top to view Kualoa Ranch Valley. Highly recommends this trip for everyone!

It was a long and tiring day, but it was absolutely worth it. There is so much history. Most people know about the USS Arizona Memorial, but there is so much more. The submarine Bowfin, battleship Missouri and the Aviation museum. With the short movies and museums at each attraction there is so much to see and do it takes a full day. Our 9 yo boy absolutely loved it. He never complained once. His favorite part was exploring the Missouri. I highly recommend this tour.

Very nice experience, beautiful landscapes, your mind flies with so much nature and seeing the places where you saw a movie, wow! Spectacular experience, I recommend it

It was the tour I was looking forward to the most, and the weather was great, making it the best day ever!! It felt like heaven, and I was so happy!! Snorkeling and swimming with the fish was a wonderful experience!

一番楽しみにしてたツアーで天気もよくて最高な一日でした！！天国って感じで幸せでした！！
シュノーケリングで魚とも泳げていい経験でした！

The parking lot was quite crowded, but it was understandable since it was the earliest optional tour in the morning. In the past, you could go freely, but now there are strict regulations regarding reservations and waiting times. However, it was very smooth since we could go through the tour company. After watching the orienteering video and stepping outside, we saw a rainbow. The guide during snorkeling was also very good, and we were able to see various fish. It would be quite difficult to go individually, so I highly recommend this tour.

駐車場は結構混んでいましたでも　朝が1番早いオプショナルツアーでしたが納得でした　昔はフリーで行けたのに今は予約やら順番待ちやら規制がとても厳しい　でもツアー会社の枠で行けるのでとてもスムーズでした　オリエンテーリングのビデオを見て外へ出たら虹が出ていました　シュノーケリング時ガイドもとても良く色々な魚を見ることが出来ました　個人で行こうとすると大変なのでとてもお勧めのツアーです

It was great to have a horseback riding experience in the vast nature. The guide also taught us a lot about Hawaii, and it was fun!

Wearing clothes that can get dirty and sun protection are essential.

広大な自然の中で、乗馬経験ができてすごくよかったです。
ガイドの方も色々ハワイについて教えてくれて、楽しかった！

汚れてもいい服装+日焼け対策は必須

It might have been bad timing, as we waited about 20 minutes until the bus departure, and after stopping at other hotels, it ended up taking around 1 hour and 20 minutes.

タイミングが悪かったのか、バス出発まで20分ほど待ち、他のホテルを回ったこともあり、結局1時間20分くらいかかりました。

They accompanied us throughout, so even as beginners, we were able to enjoy ourselves with peace of mind. The horses were calm, smart, and wonderful! They even took commemorative photos for us, making it a great memory of Hawaii.

前後についてくれるので、初心者でも安心して楽しめました。馬たちが大人しくて賢くて素晴らしいです！記念撮影もしてくれて、ハワイの良い思い出になりました。

○Positive Points
- The view was absolutely stunning! I often saw paragliders from the beach, and I thought the starting point was nearby, but it was actually further out than I expected. There were 5-6 groups on the same small boat, and it felt great to be out in the wind and waves!
- It was a windy day, so we started an hour later than our reservation. They checked if it was okay to leave late and confirmed that we didn't have a dinner reservation, which allowed for the time change!
- There are many points to note below, but it was so much fun! I felt like a bird and would love to go again, so if you're interested, definitely give it a try!

●Points to Note
- Everything is basically in English, so be prepared for that... (For those taking photos, there were some people who spoke simple Japanese on the boat.)
- I experienced more seasickness than I expected, and the wind during paragliding can make it worse, so if you're prone to motion sickness, it's best to take medication just in case. I felt a bit nauseous while paragliding...
- Be careful about the meeting place! There's a large parking lot between the sea and the pool next to the hotel. The reception is in a small hut along the seaside within that parking lot, but it was hard to find... (I'll upload a photo of the reception hut, so please take a look.)
- If you have a GoPro or something similar, it might be good to bring it. Taking photos with a smartphone can be risky if you drop it, and it’s hard to take it out of your pocket to shoot without feeling nervous.

○良かった点
・とにかく絶景！ビーチからよくパラセイリングをしているのを見えていたので、近場かと思ったら、思ったより沖でのスタート。同じ船に5〜6組乗っていて、小型船ですので、風や波を受けとても気持ち良かったです！
・風の強い日で、予約より1時間遅い時間でのスタートとなりました。その中で遅れて出発でもOKか、ディナーの予約はしてないか確認してくれての時間変更になりました！
・下記注意点たくさんありますが、、とっても楽しかったです！鳥になったようなまた行きたいので、興味ある方はぜひ！


●注意点
・基本全て英語なのでちょっと覚悟が必要・・・（写真撮影の方、船の中でのコミュニケーションは簡単な日本語を話してくださる方がいらっしゃいました）
・思った以上に船酔い、パラセーリングでも風で煽られるので、酔い止めが気になる方は迷ったら飲んだ方が正解です。ちょっとパラセイリングの上空で気持ち悪くなりました・・・
・集合場所は要注意！海とホテル横のプールと挟まれたところに大きな駐車場があります。その駐車場の中、海沿いの小さな小屋が受付ですが、全く分からず・・・（受付の小屋は写真アップしておきますので、ご覧ください。）
・Go Proとかあれば持っていくと良いかもしれません。スマホ撮影は落としたら・・・とか勇気がないとポケットから出して撮影は考えずらいです。。

Had an amazing time at Kualoa! The ATV experience was awesome, the crew was amazing, very informative & humorous, would definitely recommend! Side note: it does get VERY dusty so dont wear white or schedule anything after this. We had to go back to our hotel to shower and get a change of clothes. Besides that, 10/10!

The weather was nice, and the waves by the shore weren't too bad, but once we headed out to sea, raised the mast, and started sailing, the waves began to rise, and the thrilling experience of getting splashed was so much fun. We got quite wet, but by the time we returned to shore, we were completely dry. My husband and I talked about how if the price were a bit lower (it felt very much like Hawaii), we would be happy to go every time.

天気も良く岸辺の波は大したことはなかったのですが、沖合に出てマストを上げて航行が始まったころから何が高くなり始めてバッサーンと波を被りながらのヨット体験はとってもスリリングで楽しかったです。
結構濡れましたが岸に戻るころにはすっかり乾いていました。
もう少しお値段が安かったら（とてもHawaiiらしくて）毎回乗ってもいいねと主人と話しています。

On the day of the visit, there was a sandbar, so we could walk. However, because the tide was low, the paddle boat was too shallow and got stuck, making it difficult to ride. Snorkeling was great as we were able to see two turtles. It was allowed to bring in beer, so we brought two bottles and chilled them. It seemed that people from Taiwan brought a case of six. Enjoying beer while snacking was the best!

当日はサンドバーが出ていて歩けました　逆に潮が引いていたためパドルボートが浅すぎて引っかかって上手く乗れなかった　シュノーケリングは亀が2匹も見れて良かったです　ビール持ち込みOKとなっていたので2本持っていって冷やしていただきました　台湾からの人は6本ケースで持ってきていたようです　スナックを食べながらのビール最高でした

This is my second time on the Kamataran. I repeated it because I had a great experience four years ago, and it was still amazing.

Last time, I encountered a pod of dolphins, which was a wonderful memory. This time, encountering sea turtles was the highlight!

今回2回目のカマタラン号
4年前に乗ったカマタラン号が良くてリピートしましたがやっぱり最高でした。

前回はイルカの群れと遭遇していい思い出。
今回は海亀と遭遇最高でした。

My wife can't swim, but the staff member Jenny warmly supported us until the end. Mahalo! I want to go to the sandbar again!

妻が泳げないのに、スタッフのジェニーがあたたかく最後まで、サポートしてくれました。マハロ！
また、サンドバーに行きたい！

We had super time snorkeling at Huanama Bay.
Dan is excellent trainer, very helpful and supportive. He made sure we had a great time. Took lot of pictures and shared with us. This will be life time memories.
I will advise who wants to do snorkeling do it with Dan. Blue Divers

This ATV experience was unlike any I’ve had before. It’s located on a farm, so you get to see the farm animals, feed them, and pet them, which is pretty cool. You can enjoy the farm life before or after you ride. I HIGHLY recommend using their goggles. Sunglasses do diddly squat when you’re out there riding; it gets very dusty. You ride to a track, do many laps on the track, and then ride to scenic areas where they will take pictures of you. The track got boring after a while; I recommend that they utilize more space or a different area for ATV rides to change it up. They took a video of us on the track, and wanted $10 for one minute-long video that included my family and people I didn’t know that were in and out of the frame in a flash. Needless to say, we did not buy the video. Despite this, they were kind-hearted and led us to see the beautiful scenery where we could get the best pictures. I enjoyed the experience!

Most of the participants were from overseas, but there were staff members who could speak Japanese, and they kindly taught us various things. I was able to enjoy myself with peace of mind. It's essential to change clothes as your body gets cold.

参加者は海外の方がほとんどでしたが、日本語を日本語を話せるスタッフもいて、色々親切に教えて頂きました。
安心して楽しめました。体が冷えるので着替えはマストです。

The staff at the e-bike rental only spoke English, but they were very considerate, which I appreciated. I am glad that I was able to ride through the magnificent Kualoa Valley on an e-bike. I am also grateful to the staff. Thank you very much.

eバイクのスタッフさんは英語しか話せない方でしたが大変気を遣って頂き恐縮でした。あの雄大なクアロア渓谷をeバイクで駆け抜ける事が出来た事を嬉しく思います。スタッフさんにも感謝です。ありがとうございました。

ジャングルツアーは、木の実を食べたり登山をしたり
90分間で沢山の体験をして物凄く楽しめました。
悪路をトラックで走行するのはスリルがありました。
スタッフもナイスな人でとても楽しめました。

The villages were quite a treat! Quite personal, few crowds, and thoroughly educational & entertaining!
The buffet dinner had many choices, but we were not too happy with the quality of the main dishes; beef was of low quality, somewhat tough, & often cold by the time it got to our table; chicken was again of poor quality & soaked in unusual sauces; fish likewise. Would prefer less choices & better quality! Service was good.

Our family had an amazing time!! The crew was super friendly and fun!! The captain was great and the grill master the burgers were amazing!! Tyson was great answering our questions about the area.
Julia was funny and very informative about the area.
The drive over to the marina was absolutely amazing the view was incredible. I’ve never snorkeled before but felt super safe we saw sea turtles and all kinds of fish!! Would highly recommend this outing ️☀️ it was one of the highlights of our trip.
We thought it was really cool that some of our favorite movies were filmed around the area also.
Jurassic Park, Pirates of the Caribbean and 50 frost dates. Great memories were made for me and my kids thanks until next time Oahu. Mahalo

During my stay in Hawaii, the best experience by far was this tour.
● The scenery used in Jurassic Park. Specifically, there are vast grasslands with steep cliffs visible in the distance.
● Then, we crossed the forest and viewed Diamond Head from the top of a hill.
● This might be seasonal, but on the way back through the forest, the guide shared edible fruits and plants, keeping things interesting.

● The horses were calm, and there were few bugs, providing a rich experience. Since there was no trotting or galloping, I recommend it for beginners! Even as an experienced rider, I was completely satisfied without any fast-paced riding.

ハワイ滞在中、間違いなく最高の体験はこのツアーでした。
●ジュラシック・パークでも使われた風景。具体的には、草原が広がり遠くに切り立った崖が見えます。
●そして森を越えて、丘の上からダイアモンドヘッドを眺めました。
●これは季節限定かもしれないですが、帰りの森の中でもガイドさんは食べられる木の実や草を渡してくれて飽きさせない内容でした。

●馬たちもおとなしく、虫も少ない、心豊かな経験を得られました。速歩や駆け足はやらないので、初心者の方もオススメです！経験者ですが、速歩などなくても大満足でした。
