Awesome experience. The captain and first mate were very patient, and communicated well. Took care to make sure everyone was safe. Took awesome pictures as well.

Great day out with the crew! My family was visiting from the mainland and decided to bring them out to the sandbar. They were extremely happy with this experience!! Would def recommend this excursion.

Kama was a great instructor! Both my partner and I managed to catch some good waves for our first time surfing! I didn’t think we would be able to get a hang of it the first class. Kama’s great and straight forward instructions made surfing easy to grasp. Kama was also very observant and gave good feed back.

Really nice activity for those that want to move their legs a bit. These bikes have a motor so for anyone that thinks is not as fit, you can definitely do it! Great vibe from the crew that works at kualoa ranch and they made the ride really fun! Also they are super available to take pictures for you and get in on the fun. Also transportation was on time and everything was organized.

I participated in a mountain bike tour for the first time. Since it was an electric assist bike, it was easy to go uphill. Even a fifth grader enjoyed it. We chose an easy course, and there were eight participants in the tour, with one guide explaining everything in English. The child didn't understand any English, but it was still fun just to explore that miraculous place. We didn't sweat excessively and could feel the refreshing breeze all over our bodies. At the filming location of Jurassic Park, they took photos and videos of each group pretending to be the cast. Everyone got into character, and we shared laughs over each other's performances, spending a wonderful time together.

初めてマウンテンバイクツアーに参加しました。
電動アシスト自転車なので、坂道も楽です。小学校5年生の子も楽しんでいました。
私たちは簡単なコースを選びました。ツアーは8人が参加し、1人のガイドさんが英語で説明してくれました。子供は英語が全く分かりませんが、それでもあの奇跡的な場所を巡るだけでも楽しいです。べったりと汗ばむこともなく、さわやかな風を全身で感じられます。ジュラシックパークの撮影地では出演者になりきる写真や動画を１組ずつ撮ってくれました。皆さん役者になりきり、それぞれの熱演を笑い合いステキな時間を過ごせました。

The parking lot right next to the Hilton is easy to find as the check-in location! After about a 10-minute boat ride, we arrived at the sailing point. Tethered to the parachute, we were off into the sky! The wind felt amazing! You can see the horizon stretching far away, and it's great to have a panoramic view of Waikiki and Honolulu! It was such a pleasant experience, and I felt fantastic!

ヒルトンからすぐの駐車場が受付場所でわかりやすい！！
ボートで10分ほど行くとセーリングポイントへ到着。
パラにつながれていざ天空へ！
風が気持ちいい～～～～～！
水平線が遠くまで見通せるし、ワイキキの町・ホノルルの町を
一望できるというのもこれまた良いですね！
気持ちよくて、最高な気分でした！！

The weather was mostly cloudy, but it hardly rained. The contrast between the white sandbar and the surrounding sea was beautiful. At the turtle point, I encountered many sea turtles, and they were adorable. A little further away, there were a few manta rays, and everyone was excited to see manta rays during the day, which is quite rare! Of course, I was too! This was my second time at the sandbar, and although I haven't experienced perfectly clear weather yet, just being able to see the beautiful contrast of the sea is soothing for the soul!

天気は、曇りがちでしたが雨になることはほぼなく
サンドバーの白さと周りの海の色のコントラストがきれいでした。
ウミガメにポイントでは、たくさんのウミガメにも出会えて
かわいかったです。
少し、離れたところでは、数匹のマンタレイも居て
めったに見ることがない昼間のマンタに皆さん興奮してましたね！
もちろん、私も！！
今回で2度目のサンドバーですが、なかなか快晴！！
という天気には巡り会えてませんが、きれいな海のコントラスト
を見れるだけで、心が癒やされます！

It was very scary and very fun! Before boarding, the dolphins welcomed us, and my daughter was very satisfied. I recommend filming during the ride. I will challenge myself again. Since check-in is hot, let's choose a good time. It's a 7-minute walk from the Hilton Hotel. I'm also satisfied with the price. From the Sheraton, it's by taxi.

大変怖くて大変楽しい気持ちいい〜！乗る前はイルカも大歓迎してくれて娘も大満足でした。乗ってる時は動画での撮影をお勧めします。またチャレンジします。チェックインは暑いのでちょうど良い時間にしましょう。ヒルトンホテルから歩いて7分です。金額も満足です。シェラトンからはタクシーで

It was more expensive and amazing than what we did in Okinawa before. Since the flights are for two people at a time, there were some who got seasick while waiting on the boat.

以前沖縄でやったのより高くてすごかったです。2人ずつのフライトなので、ボートでの待ち時間に船酔いした人がいました。

Arrived 5 minutes late, but it was almost on time. Unfortunately, it was fully booked, so the three of us had to sit separately. I was a bit surprised to see people sitting next to strangers and some without masks during this time; there seems to be a bit of a relaxation in caution! This isn't the tour company's responsibility, but they did store our luggage neatly on the shelves in the vehicle, which was reassuring.

5分遅れで到着、ほぼ時間通りでした、
あいにくの満席で3人利用でバラバラに座る事になりました、この時期に知らない人の隣やマスク無しの人も見受けられ少しびっくりしました、気の緩みがどうしてもあるのでしょう！これはツアー会社の責任ではありませんが、
荷物も車内の棚に並べて収納してくれるので重ねられず安心でした、

My first visit to Kualoa Ranch.
I actually wanted to do the Raptor Tour, but the morning tour was fully booked, so I decided on the E Mountain Bike Tour.

I’m 152 cm tall, and I was worried about being able to ride a mountain bike, but I was able to borrow a kids' bike (there happened to be one available). However, since the wheels were small, it was quite challenging to keep up.

As for the content, we were able to visit several movie filming locations, and it felt really nice to experience the wind while biking.

There were 8 people in our team, and the staff were cheerful. They explained various things, so I think I would have enjoyed it more if I had understood what they were saying. I would like to try the Japanese Raptor Tour next time!

Since it was August, I was worried about insect bites, but there were hardly any bugs, and I didn’t get bitten. Also, since we rode for two hours, you can get sunburned! There were quite a few people participating in long sleeves. I recommend sun protection!
The tour was from 9:30 to 11:30. The bus departed at 1 PM, so after the tour, I looked around the souvenir shop and had a light lunch. I had read that the food wasn’t very good, but that wasn’t the case! If I could wish for something, it would have been nice to have a beer.

初のクアロアランチ。
本当はラプターツアーが良かったのですが、午前のツアーがいっぱいでEマウンテンバイクツアーにすることに。

私は身長152cmで、マウンテンバイクに乗れるか不安だったのですが
子供用のバイクを借りれました。（たまたま1つ空きがありました。）
ただ、車輪が小さいので着いていくのが結構大変でした。＞＜

内容としては、映画のロケ地もいくつか回れたし、自転車ならではの風を感じることができてとても気持ちよかったです。

1チーム8人でスタッフの人も陽気でした。
色々と説明してくれていたので、何を言っているか分かったら、もう少し楽しめたかな・・と思います。
次回は、日本語のラプターツアーができたらまた行ってみたいです！


8月だったので虫刺されが心配でしたが虫はほとんどいなくて刺されることはありませんでした。
あと、2時間自転車で走るので、焼けます！
長袖で参加している人も結構いました。
紫外線対策をおすすめします！！
9:30~11:30がツアー参加。
13時にバスが出発するので、終わった後はお土産ショップ見たり軽くランチしました。
あまり美味しくない、、と書かれてましたがそんなことはなかったです！
欲を言えば、ビールくらい飲めるとよかったのになぁと思いました〜〜。

I thought we were going to an island, but it turned out to be a shallow area in the sea. It was a very mysterious place where you can enjoy various marine sports, and they teach you how to do them and how to ride, so it's reassuring. The donuts were delicious, and it was perfect!

島に行くのかと思っていたら海の中の浅瀬でした。とても不思議な場所でそこではいろんなマリンスポーツができ、やり方も乗り方も教えてもらえるので安心。ドーナツも美味しく、完璧でした！

Before the experience, I was so nervous that I even regretted signing up, but once I actually did it, it was incredibly enjoyable and fun! They also give you the photos on an SD card for $40.

体験前はドキドキで申し込んだことを後悔すらしましたが、実際やってみるとサイコーに気持ち良く楽しかったです！写真も$40でSDカードで渡してくれます。

absolutely love the tour. Never been snorkeling in Hawaii. Bucket list checked. Definitely will do this again!

There were 7 Japanese people (I was just watching from the boat), 4 foreigners, and 2 crew members. The other Japanese people were severely seasick and vomited before parasailing. According to my family, this was just the beginning; after parasailing started, it was truly hellish and they couldn't enjoy the scenery at all.

A Japanese man was vomiting in the air. My family was also down for a few hours after disembarking.

But I think the strong wind was the cause. If there hadn't been any wind, there wouldn't have been seasickness, and parasailing would have been fun.

Meeting time: 9:00 AM
Start time: 9:30 AM, but we were made to wait 40 minutes before boarding. During this time, I got completely sunburned.

日本人7人(私は船で見てるだけ)外国人4人クルー2人。
私以外の日本人は船酔いがひどくてパラセーリングの前にゲロゲロ。
うちの家族いわくこれは序の口でパラセーリングが始まってからが本当に地獄で景色どころじゃないらしい。

日本人男性は空中で吐いていた。うちの家族も下船してから数時間ダウンしていた。

でもこれは風が強かったのが原因だと思う。風がなかったら船酔いもなくパラセーリングも楽しかったはず。

集合時間　9時
開始　　　9時30分とかいてあるが乗船までに40分はまたされた。この間にこてんぱんに焼けた。

Lola was great at presenting the interesting facts about Hawaii. She was fun and funny and very engaging.

We had a wonderful experience. The staff on our boat was very welcoming and friendly. My niece said the staff of Capt Allen were very attentive as well when they were in the water. Kudos/ mahalo to Capt Ruben for assisting us to snorkel especially since we (me n my sis in law) don't know how to swim. Our driver was energetic and friendly. He even stopped at Leonards bakery for us and made awesome food recommendations on the way. We had an overall great experience! We look forward to coming again.

I loved Hawaiian parasail so much!
I felt like I was flying and also enjoyed the beautiful Waikiki beach and diamond head view.
The staff are all friendly and helpful. They take lots of pictures and download it on your phone after reviewing if you pay a fee. I had a bad experience about photos at a different parasailing company. There were no pictures when I checked the Flash card at home. You will never forget this activity, highly recommend!

I only attended the show without dinner. The staff were all wearing masks, but most of the guests were not, so I made sure to wear my mask and used hand sanitizer before and after the show to minimize risk. I also prepared extra masks just in case, as I was a bit concerned about droplets from the outside.

As a note, as of August 2022, a negative PCR test certificate is required for entry into Japan, so I acted a bit cautiously, but I think it's definitely possible to enjoy the experience if you take the necessary precautions. Of course, I was able to return home safely with a negative test result.

ディナーなしのショーのみに参加しました。
スタッフの皆さんはマスクをしていますが、鑑賞しているお客さんはほとんでどマスクしていないので、リスク回避のためにしっかりマスクして、携帯用の消毒薬でショーの前後で消毒するなどの対策をして楽しみました。マスクも一応外側の飛沫が気になるくらいではあるので、替えを用意しています。
前提として、22年8月時点で日本入国にはPCR陰性証明が必要になるなど、すこし注意深く行動しましたが、対策をとっていれば十分楽しめると思います。
勿論、検査結果陰性で無事帰国できています。

The Dole Plantation, which we stopped by along the way, was surprisingly enjoyable. I had a delicious pineapple soft serve and added to my collection of unique penny stamps.

The horseback riding at Makakeha Beach offers beautiful scenery, and the horses are well-trained, making it a safe and enjoyable experience even for beginners. There is a brief explanation of basic reins handling at the start, but generally, the horses follow the one in front automatically, so there's no need to worry.

途中に立ち寄るDolePlantationが意外と楽しめます。おいしいパインソフトを食べ、ここでしかないペニースタンプのコレクションが増えました。
MakakehaBeachの乗馬はとても景色がよく、馬もよく馴致されており初心者でも安心して楽しめると思います。最初に簡単な手綱さばき説明がありますが、基本お馬さんたちはオートマで前の馬についていくので心配しないでください。

The bus arrived 20 minutes after the scheduled pickup time. It mentioned to call the number listed on the voucher if it didn't arrive after 15 minutes, but I was told that the number is no longer in use. Although I arrived safely, I was a bit anxious at the end of my trip. Please correct the contact information immediately.

ピックアップ予定時間の20分後にバスが到着しました。15分経っても来ない場合はバウチャー記載の番号に電話してとありしましたが、現在使われておりませんと言われます。無事到着しましたが、旅の最後に少しヒヤヒヤしました。連絡先の間違いは、直ちに修正して下さい。

The crew was very friendly and helpful. The singers were incredible & played fantastic music. It was a memorable part of our vacation. Highly recommend KBOS!

If you’re in Hawaii and you don’t do this cruise, then you’re missing out!! Such a perfect event to end the evening. So relaxing, the staff was awesome, and the boat was amazing. We end up doing it again.

Amazing time! We highly recommend. Can’t wait to do it again! Do the banana boat ride- so good!

This is my second time using it, following the last time. The sea is beautiful, and the hamburgers eaten on the boat are very delicious! There were also many sea turtles! I want to participate again!

前回に続き2回目の利用です。
海も綺麗で、船の上で食べるハンバーガーもとても美味しいです！ウミガメもたくさんいました！
また参加したいです！

I was looking forward to the thrill of the American sliders, and it was just as exciting as I expected! It was a lot of fun!

I opted for the full package, but I found out that the bodyboard lesson wasn't included, and the bodyboard pool required an additional fee. I had heard from the guide on the day that it was included, so I was a bit confused. (There was no refund, so was it not included?)

Lunch was so plentiful that I couldn't finish it all!

アメリカのスライダーの迫力は凄そう、と思って楽しみにしていました！予想通り迫力があって楽しかったです！
また、フルでついてるプランにしましたが、ボディーボードレッスンはやっておらず、ボディーボードのプールは追加料金でした。当日ガイドさんには含まれてると聞いてたので、あれ？、という感じでした。(返金もなかったので、含まれていなかった？)
お昼ご飯はとても多く食べきれないほどでした！

I participated again because I had a great time last time (in 2018). You can see many beautiful fish. Above all, I was moved by the Honu that comes close to you. The Honu approaches you (laughs). This time, my family was the only Japanese participants. I feel like it was the same last time. I don't really like tours with a lot of Japanese participants, so I appreciate that aspect as well.

前回（2018年）も楽しかったので、再度、参加しました。
キレイな魚がたくさん見れます。
何よりも間近で見れるHonuには感動します。
Honuの方から近付いてきます（笑）
今回、日本人は私達家族だけでした。
前回もそうだった気がします。
日本人がたくさん参加するツアーがあまり好きではないので、そんなところも気に入っています。

We got to see dolphins and get in the water which was so refreshing!

The ride and the guide were amazing! The ranch has cows throughout that you get to see when horse riding. It is the best ranch I have been to.

We found out that there were no other Japanese participants besides us on the pickup bus, but we felt reassured knowing that our Japanese guide, Hiro, was there to support us. The path to Manoa Falls was through a lush tropical rainforest, allowing us to enjoy a side of Oahu beyond just the beaches. The local guide who explained about the plants was friendly and had a lively tone, making it enjoyable! After walking just under 1 km, we arrived at Manoa Falls, which had a decent height but a relatively low water flow. The width of the waterfall was unexpectedly narrow, which was a bit disappointing. Exiting the rainy tropical rainforest, Manoa town was dry, and it was interesting to see the climatic changes due to the terrain. We picked up lunch at a popular sandwich shop that has been around for three generations and headed to Tantalus Hill. Enjoying a sandwich that lived up to its reputation while overlooking Diamond Head and the hotels in Waikiki was incredibly pleasant. Although Hiro, our Japanese guide, mentioned that he has only been a guide for a short time, we appreciated his attention to detail.

ピックアップのバスに乗ってみて自分達夫婦以外に日本人の参加者はいないことが分かりましたが、ちゃんと日本人ガイドのHiroさんが付いてサポートしてくれて安心。
マノアの滝までの道は鬱蒼とした熱帯雨林で、ビーチだけではないオアフ島を楽しめた。植物などについて説明してくれた現地ガイドの方は気さく、軽快な口調で面白かった！1km弱歩いて到着したマノアの滝は高さはそこそこあるものの水量が少なめ。滝の幅が予想外に狭くてややガッカリ。雨が降る熱帯雨林から出るとマノアの街はカラッとしていて地形による気候の変化が面白かった。街中で3代続く人気のサンドイッチ店でランチをピックアップしてタンタラスの丘へ。ここからダイヤモンドヘッドやワイキキのホテル群など一望しながら、人気店と言われることが納得できるサンドイッチを頬張るのは凄く心地良かった。
日本人ガイドのHiroさんはガイド歴はまだ短いとのことだったが、細かい気配りがありがたかった。
