Long sleeves are a must!! And a mask too...!!
I was laughing so hard with my nose covered in dust.
Driving a four-wheeler without an international license felt like a scene from a movie with six vehicles lined up.
The guide was kind and pleasant.
At Kualoa Ranch, it was okay to add activities based on the time we had, but the popular zip line sells out quickly.

The morning pickup location was in front of the Twin Fin Hotel, so I walked from my accommodation. A large bus labeled "Kualoa Ranch" arrived, and most of the participants were from overseas. Once we arrived, there was a tour guide for Japanese participants, which was great. The buggy experience was guided entirely in English, so I couldn't understand what was being said, but I felt reassured because I could watch instructional videos in Japanese. The accelerator is quite heavy, so you need to press it firmly to move forward. I am 148 cm tall, and unfortunately, the seatbelt was tight, and I couldn't reach the pedals to drive, which was disappointing, but overall it was a very enjoyable tour. I had prepared myself after reading other people's reviews, but I was surprised at how dirty we got. I recommend that women bring cleansing wipes and moisturizing cream! Also, it was very cold on the bus ride there.
朝のピックアップ場所はツインフィンホテルの前だったので、宿泊先から歩いて行きました。
大きなバスでクアロアランチとかかれた送迎車がきて、ほとんどが海外の参加者でした。
現地についてから、日本人参加者には、園内案内。日本語のガイドさんがいてくださったので良かったです。バギー体験は全て英語のガイドなので、何を言ってるかわかりませんでしたが、操作については日本語動画を見れるので安心できます。アクセルの踏み込みが重たいので、思い切り踏まないと進まないです。私は身長が148センチなのですが、シートベルとがかたく、足が届かず運転できなかったのが残念でしたが、総じてとっても楽しいツアーでした。他の方の口コミを見て覚悟はしてましたが、びっくりするくらい汚れます。女性は、クレンジングシートと保湿クリームを所持されることをおすすめします!あとは、行きのバスの中ぎとても寒かったです。

There was a live performance on the boat, which was enjoyable. During snorkeling, I was able to see many fish even in shallow areas, which was delightful. Since I had been in the water for a long time, it was cold on the way back on the boat, so I think it would be good to spend some free time in the sun.

We had the most amazing experience!! We brought our daughter to Hawaii for her high school graduation and she loved this tour. We had the best tour guides ever!! And we would do it over and over again if we lived here. Just make sure you bring comfy clothes, comfy shoes you really don’t mind getting wet/dirty, and females you will get your face super dirty and wet…so make sure you at least bring a little extra face wash/sunscreen.

Parasailing itself was very enjoyable! The view of Hawaii from 150 meters was amazing! However, since there were about 12 people on the shared boat and 6 groups took turns flying, we had to wait on a rather rocky boat due to the strong winds that day. As a result, there were some people who got seasick during the wait. So, motion sickness medication is a must!
パラセーリング自体はとても楽しかったです!
150mから見るハワイの景色は素晴らしかったです!
ただ、12人程度の乗合船で6組が順番に飛ぶため、風が強い日だったこともあり結構揺れる船で待機することになります。 なので途中で船酔いしてしまっていた方がいました。なので酔い止めは必須です!

Due to the price, I was debating whether to purchase this excursion for a family of four. I bit the bullet and purchased it; let me tell you, my experiences from the beginning to the end of the trip, it was magical. Just the drive to the location was a joy in itself, engulfed with the "aw" moment, witnessing the green mountains to the curvy roads. As we arrived at the boating dock, the instruction instructed us to check in near the deli Shop under the red umbrella. We were greeted by smiles and they quickly got us onto the boat after signing the waivers. The boat ride to Kaneohe Bay was worth it-the purchase included a simple breakfast (donuts, orange Juice, and water), live music (please tip the band), and the scenery was heavenly. The best part of this excursion was seeing my family enjoying every moment in the clear water, snorkeling, kayaking, and paddle boarding. The staffs were friendly educating us about the sea animals when we were snorkeling.
Overall, one of the best experiences ever. I would definitely do this again if I were to be in Oahu.

It's an activity in shallow water, so you can enjoy it without any worries. On the banana boat, I had to use all my leg and arm strength to avoid being thrown off, and I ended up with a bit of muscle soreness. I guess I'm not used to exercising. The fish were incredibly cute!

We have never snorkeled or used a paddle board before and this adventure allowed the most beautiful perfect safe spot for our first time. I have never been in water that beautiful and if you were nervous at all some of the crew even stays in the water with you in all the areas at all times. Just book this tour you will not regret it!

The afternoon on the Kaneohe Sandbar was amazing!! There were so many choices of things to do : kayaking, paddle boarding, snorkeling, sunning on the floating deck, or playing volleyball. The reef was filled with beautiful fish and the sand underfoot was smooth and soft. The crew was organized and efficient with each member per for their job effectively. But the icing on the cake was the live entertainment from two very talented musicians who played and sang as we rode out and back to the sandbar. It’s an adventure that I will book again when I return to the island!

First of all, we passed Hanauma Bay and stopped at the Lanai Lookout, which was an unexpected bonus that I wouldn't have ever seen, being on a work trip with a very brief window to go out on a Sunday. I'm very grateful to him for a joyful trip, the extra stop (thank you!!!!!), and the information he shared en route to Hanauma Bay, about where different creatures may be seen, areas of the bay, types of fish, and even local characters (yes, fish). One of the fish characters (I think a Humuhumu? but I could be wrong) was described as a chihuahua who will pester you if you cross paths, LOL! The bay is simply some of the most beautiful water and fish I've ever snorkeled in the company of. Just incredible. 11/10. Thank you for an amazing experience.

I was supposed to be snorkeling at the sandbar by now, but I couldn't get picked up at the designated location. After struggling with the poor response from the tour company, I ended up wasting time and didn't want to inconvenience the other participants who were already there, so I reluctantly decided to forgo the tour.
Until now, I thought I didn't need the phone function on my smartphone as long as I had internet access, but without a public phone and not being a guest at the hotel where the meeting point was, it became an essential function for me.
It was already challenging to make a call without leaving the meeting point the tour company specified, and after waiting for 30 minutes, I had to ask the hotel reception if there was a public phone. Thanks to the kind receptionist, I was able to contact them using the hotel phone.
At that time, I was told to call a taxi using an app, and although I tried to download the app and request a ride, the poor internet connection caused repeated errors. As the meeting time approached, I had to sadly give up.
Even calling to inform them of my cancellation was a struggle, and in the end, I had to rely on the JAL Pack reception to make the call for me to complete the cancellation. For someone like me, who couldn't use the phone and has limited English skills, it was an exhausting two hours.
If the tour company had arranged a taxi when I contacted them, I might have been able to participate. If I could have communicated via LINE, they might have realized my situation sooner and come to pick me up. I have many requests now, but it was a painful lesson for me.
Today was the only day during my stay when the tide allowed me to see the sandbar, and it's unfortunate that I couldn't reschedule for another day. Both the tour company and participants need to consider how to properly handle emergencies.
本当は今頃サンドバーでシュノーケリングをしてたはずなのに、指定場所にピックアップに来てもらえず、ツアー会社に連絡したその後の対応の悪さに苦労した挙句時間を費やし、すでに現地にいる他のツアー参加者に迷惑をかけたくなかったので、仕方なく参加を断念しました。
今までネット環境さえあればスマホの電話機能なんて必要ないと思っていましたが、公衆電話もなく集合場所のホテルの宿泊者でもない私にとっては、必須の機能でした。
ツアー会社の言う集合場所から離れずに電話することがまず難関で、30分待って仕方なくホテルのレセプションで公衆電話があるかどうかを尋ね、親切なレセプショニストのおかげでホテルの電話で連絡させてもらえました。
その時にアプリかなんかでタクシーを呼んで現地まで行ってと言われて、アプリをダウンロードして配車を試みるも、ネット状況が悪くて何度もエラーに。そのうち現地集合時間が迫り、泣く泣く断念することに。
断念するとの電話連絡もひと苦労し、結果JALパックのレセプションに泣きつき、電話をしてもらってキャンセル連絡完了。
電話を使えず、英語も拙い私にとっては、クタクタに疲れた2時間でした。
ツアー会社に連絡した時にタクシーの手配をしてくれれば参加できたかも、LINEで連絡できたらもっと早く気づいてもらえてピックアップに来てもらえたかも。今はいろいろ要望もありますが、私も手痛い勉強になりました。
滞在期間中、唯一サンドバーにお目にかかれる潮位だった今日、他の日にリスケが出来ず残念です。
緊急時の対処がきちんとできるかどうか、ツアー会社も参加者も考えなくてはいけませんね。
We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience caused by our oversight, which prevented you from participating in our sandbar tour that you were looking forward to.

The local staff were professionals at creating a relaxed atmosphere, and I never felt uncomfortable; I truly enjoyed being among the young people. While I'm still energetic, I want to challenge myself with many more activities. The return shuttle bus was really cold, so it's essential to have something to wear in addition to a towel.
