All Reviews for Lunch & Breakfast Experiences

It was great! Pick up and drop off near hotel area, perfect. Sunrise hike to Diamond Head is a great way to start the day. You can go at your own pace. Views of sunrise and surrounding areas were beautiful! After the hike, driver dropped us off to Eggs N Things. Delicious!! After breakfast, driver picked us up and dropped us off near hotel.

This was our third trip to Hawaii as a family. This time, we participated in the Manoa Falls hike for the first time. I think we walked for about 30 to 40 minutes from the entrance. Since it's a rainy area, the path was muddy. Because of that, it felt like we were climbing a mountain more than I had imagined. My sons seemed to handle it well, though. After getting tired, we were moved by the sight of the waterfall! The guide and the driver also pointed out photo spots and took family pictures for us!

The view from Tantalus Lookout after Manoa Falls was also magnificent. My sons were impressed as well. The sandwiches we had there were really delicious! I highly recommend this tour. Next time, I would like to join another plan from this company. Thank you!

家族で3回目のハワイ。
今回は初めてマノアの滝ハイキングに参加しました。入り口からは30分〜40分くらい歩いたと思います。雨の多い地域とのことで道はぬかるんでいます。そのため想像よりしっかり山を登ったような感覚でした。息子たちは余裕だったようですが。疲れた後に着いて見える滝には感動します！ガイドの方も運転手さんも写真スポットを教えてくれたり、家族写真も撮ってくれました！
マノアの滝の後に向かったタンタラスの丘からの景色がまた壮大でした。
息子たちも感動してました。
そこで食べるサンドイッチもとっても美味しかったです！
お勧めのツアーです。
次回はまたこちらの会社の別のプランに参加したいです。
ありがとうございました。

we had an amazing time at The Sandbar. we enjoyed playing volleyball. The staff was amazing! and the captain was absolutely awesome. it was our favorite excursion of our trip in Hawaii.

I really enjoyed the tour. The tour guider is so nice, and organized very well, cared every person in the group, answered questions patiently. Also, the tour planned itself is excellent, no hurry, enough time for each activities, especially for seniors.

Thank you!

The guide was friendly, and it turned out to be a very enjoyable tour! The food was delicious, and we had a great time. We were also able to see sea turtles, which made us very satisfied.

案内人の人も気さくでとても楽しいツアーになりました！
ご飯もおいしく、楽しい時間になりました。
ウミガメも見ることができ、大満足です。

The captain, crew, boat accommodations were all good - great! But the reason for this excursion was the snorkeling and that was just OK.

First the good: The crew did a fantastic job taking care of us all on the boat. They seamlessly prepped all the food without us realizing they were doing it, and then served it very effectively! It was really good and plenty of it. Gotta be fast to ask for seconds tho as the crew is very efficient cleaning up. The boat ride was also great!

Now the OK: I fully expected the crew would extend their care to the snorkeling adventure and split us up into groups and take us around the coral reef. They did not, and we were left to swim and fend for ourselves not really knowing how to navigate a reef without coming in contact with it, not really knowing what we should be looking for. I "happened" across a turtle that came up from the depths of the coral and almost collided with me... so I saw that one, but not much else because I wasn't sure what I should be looking at.

We participated in mid-October as a couple in our 60s. Among the approximately 20 participants from Japan, everyone except us were newlyweds. There were also couples from Australia who were retired.

Due to the timing, the tide was high, and the white sand was not visible until the tide went out. If you want to walk on the white sand shown in the photos, you'll need to adjust your timing for participation.

However, with the blue sky and sea, the uniquely shaped mountains visible in the distance, and the cheerful hospitality of the crew on board, I felt a sense of liberation. We also saw sea turtles and manta rays. I would like to participate again.

If you're looking for clearer water and a variety of fish while snorkeling, Hanauma Bay might be a better option.

10月中旬に60歳台夫婦で参加。日本から参加された方20名程は、私たち以外新婚さんでした。他にはオーストラリアから来たリタイア後のご夫婦もいた。
時期的に潮が高くて、白い砂が見えるまで潮が引いてはいなかった。写真にある白い砂の上を歩きたければ、参加時期の調整は必要。
でも、青い空と海、視界に見える独特の形をした山、船上クルーの方々の陽気なおもてなしがあり、心が解放された気分になった。ウミガメとマンタも見られた。また参加したい。
シュノーケリング時の海の透明度や見られる魚の豊富さを求めるなら、ハナウマベイの方が良いかも。

This tour includes a sandwich lunch at Tantalus after visiting Manoa Falls. I signed up mainly for the Manoa Falls hike, but the lunch sandwiches and the view from Tantalus were just as great! The guide also took a lot of photos for us, thank you.

For those participating, my advice is that there are many mosquitoes in Manoa, so I recommend bringing insect repellent and, if possible, wearing long sleeves and long pants. Also, since it's a rainy area, the ground can be slippery. Having non-slip shoes would be reassuring.

こちらのツアーはマノアの滝の後に、タンタラスの丘でのサンドイッチランチがついていて、マノアの滝ハイキングメインで申し込みましたが、同じくらいランチのサンドイッチとタンタラスの丘からの景色がとてもよかったです！
ガイドさんもたくさん写真をとってくれたり、ありがとうございました。
参加される方へのアドバイスは、マノアは蚊が多いので、虫よけの持参、できれば長袖、長ズボンをおすすめします。あと、雨が多い地域なので地面が滑ります。滑りにくい靴があると安心です。

A sunrise hike up diamond head is a must do. The Acai bowl at Bogarts was a perfect refresher after the hike. I would do this again

The tour guide was kind, and even though I forgot my insect repellent spray, they lent me one. The path wasn't as muddy as I thought, so my shoes didn't get too dirty. We were also blessed with good weather. The lunch at Tantalus Lookout, along with the scenery and breeze, was perfect.

ツアーガイドさんも親切、虫よけスプレー忘れていきましたが、貸してくれました。思ったほど道はぬかるみなどなく、そこまで靴も汚れませんでした。お天気にも恵まれました。タンタラスの丘での昼食、景色　風、申し分なかったです。

For someone like me who struggles with English, having local Japanese staff and instructors who can communicate in Japanese provided a sense of security. Before the pandemic, I visited Lanikai individually rather than on a tour, but I enjoyed it so much more this time, so I definitely hope to participate again! Thank you very much!!

英語が苦手な私にとって、現地日本人スタッフ、日本語でコミュニケーションがとれるインストラクターは、安心感がありました。
コロナ前に、ラニカイにツアーではなく個人で訪れたことがありましたが、何倍を楽しめたので、また是非参加できればと考えています！
ありがとうございました！！

Dexter did a great job showing us around and getting everyone where they needed to be on time.

Such a fun and memorable experience! We first stopped at the sandbar and played volleyball. The volleyball was actually so fun even if you have never played! The lunch was good and filling and offer beer and other choices of beverages. After that, we headed to the coral reef and spent about an hour there swimming and enjoying the fish! We say sea turtles and manta rays from afar which was unforgettable. Overall, highly recommend this fun experience for everyone!

Can't say enough. From beginning to end. Easy pickup and drop off from location in Waikiki,
The whole experience from the friendly, accommodating staff. The hot off the grill burgers hit the spot .
Wanted to go s second time before leaving the island, but ran out of time.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Definitely book this one.
Mahalo to the crew

It was a tour where we could casually enjoy the unique nature of Hawaii. My wife has had a bit less stamina since she was in a wheelchair for about ten months a few years ago, but we are grateful for the support from the very energetic staff member, Tomomi! When you come to Hawaii, this kind of nature also helps detox your mind. I highly recommend this! Tomomi, keep up the great work!

ハワイならではの大自然を気軽に楽しめるツアーでした。家内が数年前に車椅子を10ヶ月ほど乗っていた関係で多少体力が少ないのですが、とっても元気なスタッフのトモミさんがサポートしてくれて感謝！ハワイに来たら、こんな大自然が心のデトックスもしてくれます。これもおすすめ！トモミさん、これからも頑張ってね！

Great place, second time I go there. Pretty spot quiet and peaceful with a lot of activities such as jenga, ping pong etc. They also have cool activities.
Highly recommend

I would do this again and again, the crew is wonderful and energetic just great people to spend the day with! Volleyball, burgers, snorkeling oh my!

I made a reservation for a date without checking the tide levels, but it turned out to be just when the tide was coming in, and the water level at the sandbar was around my waist. Last time it was about ankle-deep, so I felt a bit disappointed and reduced my rating by one star.

You can check the tide levels at <https://www.usharbors.com/harbor/hawaii/mokuoloe-hi/tides/#monthly-tide-chart>. However, compared to the last time when the weather was mixed with rain, this time there were more sunny intervals, so I felt like I got a bit of a revenge on that front.

The tour I participated in last time had a lot of marine activities, but this time I was mainly looking forward to the BBQ hamburgers. The patties grilled on the BBQ set on the boat were delicious. As for activities, I enjoyed beach volleyball and snorkeling. I was able to choose not to wear a life jacket for snorkeling, which allowed me to enjoy skin diving (the last tour required a life jacket). I also encountered a lot of sea turtles.

A local staff member asked if my wife was a local, but at first, I didn’t understand what was being said, which was a bit amusing.

潮位を確認せずに行ける日程で予約しましたが、結果はちょうど潮が満ちてくる時間帯で、サンドバーでの水位は腰のあたりでした。前回は踝くらいだったので、残念な感じで星一つ減。
潮位は、<https://www.usharbors.com/harbor/hawaii/mokuoloe-hi/tides/#monthly-tide-chart> とかで調べられます。
しかし、前回の天気は雨混じりだったのに比べると今回は晴れ間が多かったので、そこはリベンジできたかな。
前回参加したツアーはマリンアクティビティが豊富でしたが、今回のツアーはBBQハンバーガー目当て。船上のBBQセットで焼かれたパテが美味いこと。
アクティビティとしては、ビーチバレーとシュノーケリングを楽しみました。シュノーケリングはライフジャケットを付けないのも選択できたので、私としてはスキンダイビングも出来て楽しめました(前回のツアーはライフジャケット必須だった)。ホヌにも沢山遭遇することが出来ましたし。
ロコのスタッフから、私の妻はロコなのかと訊かれたのですが、最初何を言われているのか解らなかったのは御愛嬌。

I participated with my 8-year-old and 6-year-old children. The guide was Japanese, and the entire trip was conducted in Japanese.

The activities included visiting the sandbar, observing sea turtles, and snorkeling, and we were very satisfied with the lunch, which was a charcoal-grilled hamburger.

By the way, alcohol is available for purchase, but soft drinks are free.

I was worried about whether my kids could snorkel since they are small, but they provided equipment for children, and there were no issues at all. The kids had an absolute blast.

One area for improvement would be to create a changing room. I wondered about the lack of a place to change on the way back. A few poorly mannered Japanese individuals were changing in the long line for the restroom stalls.

We had to ride the bus in wet swimsuits, and the air conditioning was too strong, making it cold. Since there’s no place to change, I think it’s a good idea to bring extra bath towels to cover up on the way back.

Other than that, it was fantastic.

8歳と6歳の子供と一緒に参加しました。
ガイドさんは日本人で、道中はオール日本語です。

サンドバー、ホヌ見学、シュノーケリングに加え、お昼ご飯は炭焼きハンバーグのバーガーで大満足のアクティビティでした。

ちなみにアルコールは有料ですが、ソフトドリンクは無料で頂けます。

子供達が小さいのでシュノーケリングが出来るか心配でしたが、子供用の装備も用意されており、全く問題ありませんでした。
子供達はめちゃくちゃ楽しんでいました。

一点改善して欲しいところは、更衣室を作って欲しいです。
帰りに着替えれないところはどうなのと思いました。
マナーの悪い日本人が数名、長蛇列のトイレ個室で着替えてました。

濡れた水着でバスに乗るのですが、エアコンが効き過ぎてて寒くなりました。
着替えれないので、帰りに体を覆えるようにバスタオルは多めに持参が良いと思います。

それ以外は最高でした。

Initially, I only reserved the shuttle, but since I was traveling alone, I joined the tour for peace of mind. It was great that they also took photos for us.

During lunchtime, I shared a sandwich with another solo participant, and we were able to try two different kinds, which made for a fun time. Thank you very much.

当初、シャトルのみを予約していましたが
一人旅なので安心の為にツアーに参加しました。
写真も撮ってくださったので良かったです。

ランチタイムも一人参加の方とご一緒し
サンドイッチをシェアして2種類食べることができ、楽しいひとときでした。
ありがとうございました。

It was ok for the most part. I just felt rushed from what supposed to be half of day ended up being a 1/4 of the day. I just wish hours were long didn’t really get to enjoy the island as family.

I was picked up from the hotel, and it took about an hour to get to the port, but being on the boat was amazing! The weather was bad, so we couldn't see the sandbar, but the delicious hamburgers and the abundance of sea turtles and tropical fish were so incredible that my child hesitated to swim. ✨ The tour guides were friendly, attentive, and all very nice. It was my first trip to Hawaii, and I'm glad we booked the tour. I hope we can see the sandbar next time!

ホテルに迎えに来てもらって港までの1時間かかったけど、船の上は最高でした！天気が悪くサンドバー見れなかったけど、美味しいハンバーガーとたくさんのウミガメ、熱帯魚がいっぱいすぎて子供が泳ぐのを躊躇してしまったほど海は素晴らしかったです✨
ツアーガイドの人も気さくで、よく気が付く、良い方ばかりでした
初めてのハワイ旅行だったのですがツアーを組んでよかったねです
次回はサンドバーが見れますように！

Since I was staying at Outrigger Reef Waikiki, I used this service during my stay. Dining while listening to Hawaiian music created a wonderful atmosphere, and I was able to relax. As for the food, the flavors were a bit on the heavy side, so I can't say it was delicious, but since it was a special menu for ticket holders, I guess that's to be expected. Whether I would want to use it again is a bit uncertain, but it might be nice for guests since you can return to your room right after the meal.

アウトリガーリーフワイキキに宿泊していたので、滞在中に利用しました。
ハワイアンミュージックを聴きながらの食事は雰囲気がとても良く、ゆっくりできました。
食事の方は、味は少し大味で美味とまでは言えませんでしたが、チケット専用の特別メニューだったので仕方ないかな…。
また利用したいかと言うと微妙な所ですが、食後すぐにお部屋に戻れるので宿泊者にはいいかもしれません。

Best time on island when we are here. Highly recommended. The crew is friendly and safety is readily apparent. Shy is a great captain and knows her stuff! The hospitality and food are above reproach. Value throughout the trip and worth every bit. Nothing short of spectacular and the opportunity to see Sea Turtles, fish of different species, and Rays. Best value we have found near the North Shore.

I had a very comfortable stay on the first floor of the hotel. The music was great, and the casual dining had a wonderful Hawaiian vibe that left me very satisfied. Being close to the performers added to the live atmosphere. The guests started dancing, which is a feeling not often experienced by Japanese people, allowing us to truly enjoy Hawaii. Since the tip is included, I think it's a great deal for Japanese visitors, especially with the current weak yen. A beer was included, and it was a large size, so there was plenty!

ホテル内の一階で、とても快適で過ごせました。音楽も良かったですし、料理もカジュアル料理で、ハワイ感が溢れていて大満足です。歌い手から近いので、ライブ感がありました。お客さんで来ていた人達が踊り出したり、日本人にはあまりない感覚で、ハワイを楽しめます。チップ代が込みなので円安の今は、日本人にはとても良いと思います。ビールが一杯ついているのですが、大サイズでたっぷりでした！

The weather was nice, and it's no wonder so many people participated. The guide was very happy! The cruise was amazing. I had a hearty lunch as well. I will continue to enjoy Hawaii from tomorrow.

お天気が良く、多くの方が参加されるだけのことは、あります。ガイドのお兄さんがとてもHAPPY
‼️クルーズ最高でした。　ランチもガッツリ頂きました。あすからもハワイを楽しみます。

Our Tour Guide, Jon, was an outstanding storyteller and kept us entertained with background, legends, history and personal observations of the stops on the tour. He was treated us as Ohana and made sure we had water and juice, delivered our lunches to us, checked that every one was comfortable. At the waterfall trail, my knee acted up so I found a shady spot to wait for my husband. Jon had rented a scooter to go down to the waterfall to check on everyone else. On the way back Jon insisted I use the scooter to return to the bus. I nominate him for employee of the year.

The staff members are amazing, and the food was delicious, but it would have been perfect if there were more play equipment! The staff doesn't go down to the sea, so it feels like you have to enjoy it on your own. However, the boat was beautiful, there were plenty of fish, and we even got to see turtles, so it was a lot of fun!

スタッフさん達は最高ですし、食事も美味しかったけどもう少し遊具が充実していれば完璧でした！
スタッフさん達は誰も海に降りないので自分たちで楽しむ感じです。でも船は綺麗で魚も沢山いて亀にも会えましたしとても楽しかったです！

This is a tour I wanted to go on for a long time. Since going individually with THE BUS takes a lot of time, I decided to join this tour.

Upon arrival, I received a tour explanation in Japanese, and during the waiting time, I was able to see horses and take photos.

The movie location tour was great as we traveled while enjoying the magnificent mountains from the bus. It was nice to take pictures with dinosaur bones used in Jurassic World.

The Kaneohe Bay cruise was smooth without feeling seasick, and there was no splashing of seawater (those who don't mind getting wet can sit at the front), allowing us to relax while enjoying the beautiful sea.

However, the explanations were in English, so I couldn't understand much. Also, since I was seated at the very back of the bus on the return trip, it was too cold, and I felt like I might catch a cold.

前から行きたかったツアーです
個人で(THE BUS)行くのは時間もかかるのでこちらに参加させて頂きました

到着すると日本語でツアーの説明を受け、待ち時間に馬を見たり写真を撮ったり出来ます

映画ロケ地巡りはバスから壮大な山々を見ながら周ります
ジェラシック・ワールドで使われた?恐竜の骨などと写真が撮れて良かったです

カネオヘ湾クルーズも酔うほど揺れず、海水がかかる事もなく(濡れても良い方は前方に)、綺麗な海を眺めながらのんびりできました
　　
ただ英語の説明なのでチンプンカンプン
だった事と、復路のバスが1番後ろだった為か、寒すぎて風邪引きそうでした

I recently had an amazing horse riding experience, and I couldn’t recommend it more! The ocean views were absolutely breathtaking, and the overall ride was incredibly peaceful and enjoyable. As a beginner, I felt completely at ease, thanks to the friendly and knowledgeable guides. It’s the perfect activity for anyone looking to relax and take in the natural beauty of the surroundings. I’ll definitely be coming back for another ride!
