Great tour guide. Informative and amazing scenery. Only downside is the tour description wasn't very clear and it actually doesn't go through the valley. We ended up doing the movie sites tour after the jungle tour because we were so disappointed and didn't want to leave before going through the valley.

Snorkeling was my first experience, but I felt安心 because there were Japanese staff members. We headed to a spot where we could see dolphins by boat and dove into the sea twice, but we couldn't see any dolphins... After changing locations, we finally saw dolphins on the third dive! (And they were so close!!!) I heard that usually, you can see them from the first dive, so maybe our timing was just bad... After that, we moved to a spot with sea turtles and tropical fish, and had some time to play with SUP and slides. The sea was incredibly clear and it was amazing!!! As a side note, I took motion sickness medicine before getting on the boat, but I still felt a bit nauseous... I took some more medicine along the way, so I recommend bringing extra if you're worried about getting sick.

シュノーケリングは初体験でしたが、日本人のスタッフさんが居るので安心です。
イルカの見えるスポットに船で向かい、2度海へダイブしましたがイルカの姿が見えず...
また場所を変えて3度目でしっかりイルカが見れました！（しかも近い！！！）
普段は1回目から見えるそうで、私たちのタイミングが悪かったのかもしれません...。
その後、ウミガメや熱帯魚のいる場所へ移動し、SUPや滑り台などをして遊ぶ時間がありました。
海が凄く透き通ってて最高でした！！！
余談ですが、船に乗る前に、酔い止めを飲みましたが、やっぱり少し酔いました...。
途中で酔い止めを追加して飲んだので、心配な方は多めに持って行くことをオススメします。

I had the best time! All three tours were so much fun and the tour guides were super helpful and had many jokes which I appreciated a lot! This is definitely an activity you should wear closed toe shoes for as there are some small/ short hikes involved and if it rains like it did for me (which was okay because it still worked out perfectly) there will be quite a bit of mud so make sure you have on a pair of sneakers/trainers so that you can enjoy it as much as I did.
The tour guides were all super sweet and helpful and they make sure you’re comfortable and make you feel like Ohana:)

Disappointed that the falls was not flowing, but the Luau was great. Learning about the hawaiian culture was interesting. The food was delicious and plentiful. The show was fabulous. You will not be disappointed.

The weather was bad, so the clarity of the sea was questionable, but the encounter rate with honu (sea turtles) was high, and I had a valuable experience. 😊

天気が悪かったので海の透明感は微妙でしたが、
ホヌ（ウミガメ）の遭遇率が高く、
貴重な体験が出来ました(^^)

Amazing views and customer service. Would definitely do it again.

We had a great time, celebrated our anniversary! The family that hosted the luau was wonderful and we were impressed with every aspect of the luau. If you are staying on Waikiki beach, be prepared for an hour drive to get there. We didn’t account for that length of time so we didn’t get to appreciate the hiking available beforehand.

Just the best! I think Hilton is the number one. It felt so good. I even encountered dolphins, which was amazing. I will ride again.

もう、最高の一言！ヒルトンのが1番だと思います。とても気持ち良かったです。イルカにも遭遇出来て最高でした。また乗ります。

As a student, I was debating whether to go until the last minute due to the tour price, but I was so moved by the beauty of nature that I forgot all about the money. Even if you can't swim, you can hold onto something like a float, so it's reassuring, and I got to see sea turtles and many fish. I definitely recommend participating!

学生なので、ツアー料金の観点から直前まで行くか諦めるか悩んでいましたが、お金なんてどうでもよくなるくらい綺麗で自然の素晴らしさに感動しました。泳げなくても浮輪的な物に捕まって引っ張ってくれるので安心ですし、ウミガメやたくさんの魚にも会えました。
ぜひ参加してみてほしいです！！

It was worth it. The place was amazing with beautiful green mountains or they called them dead volcanoes. The tour guide is very knowledgeable and friendly. My family enjoyed it.

Enjoyed the educational information about the place. Highly recommended!

The snorkeling went deeper than I expected, but I was able to see sea turtles, and it was a lot of fun. I would like to participate again.

シュノーケルは思ったより深い場所まで行きましたがウミガメを見る事が出来とても楽しかったです。また参加したいです。

The tour included a variety of activities such as farm visits, jungle exploration, and movie location tours. The farm visits had very beautiful scenery. The jungle exploration was thrilling with the ups and downs of the vehicle. I think watching the movies beforehand would make the movie location tour even more moving. The lunch was also delicious. However, the disappointing point was that there was no Japanese guide at all.

農園巡り、ジャングル探検、映画ロケ地巡りツアーと盛りだくさんの内容でした。農園巡りは景色がとても美しかったです。ジャングル探検は、車の上下動が迫力ありました。映画ロケ地巡りツアーは、映画を観ておくと、より感動すると思います。ランチも美味しく頂きました。ただ残念な点は、日本語のガイドが全くなかったことです。

The staff on the boat were all friendly, and I was able to enjoy myself throughout the trip! There were staff members who spoke Japanese, which was reassuring. We were able to see sea turtles safely! Adults went snorkeling, and for the kids, there was something like a surfboard that allowed them to see below, so we could swim together to deeper areas. If you are moving on your own, be careful not to get confused as there are multiple tour companies at the meeting point.

船のスタッフのかたみんなフレンドリーで終始楽しむことが出来ました！日本語が話せるスタッフもいたので安心です。無事にウミガメにも会うことができました〜　大人はシュノーケリングで、子供には下が見えるサーフボードのような物があったので、一緒に深い所まで泳ぐことができました。
自分で移動する場合、集合場所に複数のツアー会社があるため、間違えないように注意が必要です。

The host was funny and great knowledge about his own culture and traditions. It’s our first time so I wouldn’t be able to compare with other Luau. The show was about the different Polynesian cultures dance so just not only about the fire dance that gets everyone excited. It shows you the dance and the cultures. The Waimea fall is not flowing right now secondary the drought, ( last time occurred in 1992) so my family was little disappointed that couldn’t see the fall and swim in the pond. Look at bright side, this doesn’t happen all the time and I got to see a waterfall without water. Wished there was some warning ahead and I would have planned differently. Otherwise it was still a nice trail for family to walk.

I had doubt initially and I am glad I did it. It’s easy to book through this site. I booked it a day before the tour and luckily to find a time that was good for my family. The guide has great sense of humor. If you love Hollywood movies and TV shows, it’s a must see. You can also learn a lot about the ranch history. My family enjoyed it. Highly recommend!

La prise en charge, l’accueil, le circuit tout était très bien. Le chauffeur nous donnait des renseignements intéressants. Nous avons passé un excellent moment. Seule petit bémol le bus n’était pas très confortable et j’ai quelques petites douleurs au dos. J’ai aussi acheté la photo bien que j’ai trouvé le prix exorbitant. En tout état de cause je conseille cette activité.

This was a great experience. The bus came to hotel exactly the time that was indicated. The location was fantastic, sea was calm.

We had a great time snorkeling. We saw many fishes, and 3 turtles!

My whole family loved this luau! The fact that it also includes entry to the park is a steal; it's beautiful! Our host was very funny and personable. I loved that they have cultural activities like showing the people attending the luau how to open coconuts, and weave leaves into a headband. The food was good, and the host was giving special shoutouts to people who were celebrating things like anniversaries, graduations, etc. The people who were doing the dances did great! Even my sister that's 3 years old was super entertained. You really get a family feel at this luau; shoutout to the 9-year old kid who was doing some fire dancing as well! It was awesome and I definitely prefer giving my money here than some random resort doing shows. The vibe is 10/10!

I think it's better to choose a tour that is as close to low tide as possible when making a reservation. The depth of the sandbar is about waist-deep, and the beautiful shallow waters seen in the promotional photos continue for a long stretch. While we can't choose the weather, I believe that without strong sunlight, the contrast in photos won't be as striking. It was cloudy in the morning for us, but as we headed out to sea, the clouds cleared, and the sun came out, giving us the best experience. Of course, we also enjoyed snorkeling with sea turtles. I brought my prescription underwater goggles and wore a life jacket, allowing me to swim in the shallow waters of about 2 to 3 meters and see the sea turtles. It truly became a wonderful memory for our family of four. Thank you very much.

予約時になるべく干潮の時間帯に近いツアーを選択したほうが良いと思います。サンドバーの深さが腰程度となり広告写真で見られる美しい浅瀬がずーっと続きます。また天候は選べませんが太陽光線がしっかりないと写真のようなコントラストにならないと思います。私たちは朝曇っていたのですが沖に出ていくタイミングで雲が無くなり太陽が顔を出し最高の経験をさせてもらいました。もちろんシュノーケリングでウミガメも堪能しました。私は水泳用の度付きの水中眼鏡を持参しライフジャケット着用で水深2，3mの浅瀬を泳ぎながらウミガメを見ることが出来ました。本当に家族4人で良い思い出となりました。ありがとうございました。

I was worried about seasickness, but the time passed quickly and we arrived in no time.
I was moved to see several sea turtles along the way!
The sandbar was even more beautiful than I imagined!
I am very satisfied.
Thank you!

船酔いの心配をしていましたが、時間も短くあっという間に着きました。
ポイントに着くまでの間にウミガメに何匹か会えて感動的でした！！
サンドバーも想像以上の美しさでした！
大満足です。
ありがとうございました！

Amazing place incredible views.
Organized, punctual, beautiful

We were the only Japanese participants, but it was reassuring to have Japanese staff. We were able to see dolphins right after snorkeling. During our free time, we also got to experience paddle boarding and a slide. We were able to see sea turtles up close as well.

日本人の参加者は私達だけでしたが、日本人スタッフがいて安心しました。
シュノーケリングで潜ってからすぐにイルカに会えました。
自由時間にはパドルボートや、滑り台も体験できました。
ウミガメも近くで見れました。

LOVED our experience. Everything was amazing! Due to no rainfall/drought the waterfall wasn’t flowing but the views were still Beautiful!

I checked the tide times, but the best times were late at night or early in the morning, which didn't match the tour schedule, so I was worried about how much I would enjoy it. However, I was able to see sea turtles and many fish, which made me very satisfied. The spam sushi we had on the boat was surprisingly delicious. The sea was beautiful, and I'm really glad I participated.

満ち引きの時間帯を見たけど、ベストな時間帯が夜中や朝方でツアーの時間帯に合わず、参加してどれくらい楽しめるか心配でしたが、海亀は見れたくさんの魚も見れて満足です。船で食べたスパム握りがことの他美味しかったです。海が綺麗で、ほんとに参加して良かったです。

I have participated in sandbar tours several times before, but this tour was the most enjoyable so far because, in addition to snorkeling, there were various activities available such as stand-up paddleboarding, balls, and large floaties, which kept things fun and engaging. The staff were also bright and accommodating, making an effort to entertain us. However, one point to note is that all the explanations were in English only, so if the key points could have been communicated in Japanese as well, it would have made those who are not proficient in English feel more at ease.

今までサンドバーツアーには何回か参加したことがありますが、今回のツアーはシュノーケリング以外にも、サップボードやボール、大きな浮き輪等色々な遊び遠具が用意されていて、飽きずに楽しめ、今までで一番楽しかったです。
スタッフの方々も楽しませてくれようと明るく対応してくれました。
ただ一点、説明が全て英語のみでしたので、ポイントだけでも日本語で伝えていただけたら、英語が得意でない人も、より安心できたと思いました。

So fun!! Loved all the workers who gave us history on Hawaii, from ferry driver to island workers who took us on canoe and glass bottom boat. Loved the sandbar canoe the best!! Definitely recommend visiting the beach

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.

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.
