Oahu
We departed from the hotel (Moana Surfrider) at 7:30 for an 8:30 meeting. If you go from Kalakaua Avenue through the Fort DeRussy Boardwalk, you'll reach the parking lot where you can easily see the parasailing sign. It took us about 40 minutes to walk there at a leisurely pace.
The view from 150 meters was spectacular, offering a panoramic view from Waikiki Beach to Diamond Head! I was able to take videos by putting my smartphone in a waterproof case. There was also a Japanese person on the same boat, so we took pictures of each other, saving the $40 photo fee.
I've visited Hawaii about five times, but this was my first parasailing experience. I recommend it for both first-timers and repeat visitors!
朝8:30集合のため、ホテル(モアナサーフライダー)を7:30に出発しました。カラカウア通りからフォート・デロシー・ボードウォークを通って行くと駐車場に出て、パラセーリングの看板が見えるので分かりやすいと思います。ゆっくり歩いて行けば40分程で着きました。
150mからの景色は絶景で、ワイキキビーチからダイヤモンドベッドまで一望できました!防水ケースにスマホを入れて動画も撮影できました。同じ船に日本人の方がいらっしゃったのでお互い写真を撮りあったので40ドルの撮影代を節約できました
ハワイは5回ほど訪れてますが、初めてのパラセーリングでした初めての方にもリピーターの方にもオススメです
I think it would have been perfect if the weather had been clear. It was cloudy and cold. The program and staff were very good. The hamburger was delicious, and the staff were kind. I was excited to play volleyball at the sandbar and to see the largest honu I've ever encountered while snorkeling. If I have the opportunity next time, I would like to use this cruise again.
晴れていれば最高だったと思います。曇っていて寒かった。プログラムとスタッフはとても良かった。ハンバーガーも美味しかったし、スタッフも親切でした。サンドバーでバレーボールをして、シュノーケルでは今までで一番大きいホヌに会えて興奮しました。次回機会があれば、またこちらのクルーズを利用したいと思います。
I've been to Hawaii many times, but this was the most fun I've ever had.
Everything was explained in English, but I was able to understand the atmosphere, so it was fine.
The staff were very cheerful, and we all had a great time together!
Of course, enjoying the stunning views was amazing, but climbing, descending, and crossing everything was fun.
The zip line was the best!
何度もハワイに来ますが、過去一面白い。
説明は全て英語でしたが、雰囲気でわかるので大丈夫。
スタッフの方もとても明るく、みんなで和気あいあいと楽しむことができました!
絶景を楽しむことはもちろん、登ったり降りた渡ったり、全て楽しかった。
ジップライン最高
I felt reassured that the guide explained everything in Japanese from the start! The information about Dole Plantation and Haleiwa was detailed and informative, making it easy to explore!
最初から日本語のガイドで丁寧に説明してくれて安心でした!
ドールプランテーションもハレイワの情報も詳細で勉強になりましたし観光しやすかったです!
Thank you for your kind review. I'm glad to hear that you were satisfied.
ご丁寧なレビューありがとうございます。お客様が満足して頂けて良かったです。
The activity exceeded our expectations!
The crew did a get job explaining the rules, what to expect, and why. I felt safe and they included everybody and were interactive, very friendly and personable. This was my first time snorkeling, so I was a little nervous, but they put me at ease. It was truly amazing —-we got to see the giant sea turtles!!!
I also saw at least seven or eight different fish along the reef. And I even was swimming with beautiful school of fish below me!
I like the fact that they introduced us at the sandbar and let us get warmed up to snorkeling, and we had a game of volleyball before we went to the reef. They grilled hamburgers and had barbecued beans, and it was a delicious lunch!
all in all it was a great day, and a memory I will always cherish. I highly recommend this activity and tour to anybody going to Hawaii.
ATV Adventure was fantastic, guides (Maddy...) were great, and we will definitely do this again! HIGHLY recommend!
The scenery was better and the height was great compared to when I did it in Okinawa. The instructor was also fun, which was nice.
沖縄でやった時より
景色も良く、高さもあって
最高でした。
インストラクターの方も
楽しい方で良かったです
I would say best luau on island as we have done a few in our few years!
Great experience pretty clear cut check in and the dolphins are extremely friendly
easy quick hike to a gorgeous fall! a bit of rocky terrain to be weary
Can't go wrong with a nice evening on the gorgeous Waikiki shores!
Appreciate so much offered in 1 ticket! Great day on PH grounds
There was something to keep everyone smiling. We loved the gorgeous west side mountains and the super slide!
Really delicious food and friendly staff! Thank you for the great evening.
Very exhilarating experience! The crew was very knowledgeable and the stories they shared were awesome. Beautiful scenery! Everything was top notch.
It was a nice experience. It was a bit crowded so didn't feel as intimate as I expected.
They were very friendly people, and I had a great time!
The snorkeling in the shallow waters was filled with fish, and I was completely absorbed.
I also received instruction on how to ride the kayak and SUP.
The boat rides back and forth were very nice while listening to music.
とても気さくな人たちで楽しく過ごせました!
浅瀬でのシュノーケリングは魚がいっぱいて、夢中でした。
カヤックやSUPも乗り方から教えていただきました。
船内での行き帰りも歌を聞きながらでとても良かった
We are very happy to hear that you enjoyed the tour. Thank you for participating. From all of us at KBOS.
ツアー楽しんで頂けた様で大変嬉しく思います。ご参加ありがとうございました。KBOS スタッフ一同
The crew was amazing and so helpful! KBOS seems to have an area all to themselves, so it felt like we were on a private island. There are opportunities to do a lot of activities with plenty of time so you don’t ever feel rushed.
Mahalo for your review! - Team KBOS
We had a great time on this trip!
It was very relaxing and fun! The stuff took care of us and made sure we were safe. We snorkeled, saw some fish, we did kayaking and paddle boarding and relaxed on a floating island with chairs. Lunch was also great! Music was so beautiful and fun! And the stuff took awesome photos of us! Thank you!
Would do this again!
Mahalo for your review and the beautiful pictures! We are so glad to know that you had a great time! - Team KBOS
Oahu is so beautiful- Diamondhead is a must see but to add the Makapuu Lighthouse was an easy transfer for my day
Great night for the full family, tons of laughter and smiles from the kids!
This is a tour that takes you along hilly mountain paths on a leisurely horseback ride. The scenery is beautiful, and the weather is pleasant, making it a very enjoyable experience. There are explanations about movie filming locations and ruins at various points, but since you pass by while still on the horse, I think a different tour would be better for those who want to take photos at the filming locations. The guide speaks only English. There is a video in Japanese regarding precautions before horseback riding. On the day I participated, there were a total of six people, and one guide accompanied us. It was unfortunate that if you got too far from the guide, you could hardly hear anything.
All the horses are well-trained and follow the horse in front, so even those without riding experience can enjoy it. However, the instructions from the guide are given in English using the horses' names, such as "The person on [horse name], please go faster," which might be a bit daunting for those who don't speak any English.
One disappointing point was that one of my companions had stirrups that were too short, and even though it was known before departure, we set off without changing horses or equipment, which led to foot pain later on. Generally, they adjust for people of average build to ensure comfort, but it was unfortunate that a tall person ended up with a horse that had short stirrups.
ゆったりとした並足のみの乗馬で起伏のある山道を行くツアーです。とても景色がよく、気候も良くてとても気持ちが良いです。ところどころ映画ロケ地の解説や遺跡(?)の解説がありますが、常に馬に乗ったまま通り過ぎる形なのでロケ地で写真を撮りたい人には違うツアーの方が良いと思います。英語のみのガイドです。乗馬前の注意事項に関する動画は日本語のものもあります。参加した回は全部で6人で、1人のガイドが付いていました。ガイドから離れてしまうとほとんど聞こえないのが残念。
お馬さんたちはみんなしっかりとトレーニングされていて前の子について歩くので乗馬経験がなくても楽しめます。ただ、ガイドからの指示は英語で馬の名前を使って「○○に乗っている人もっと早く」という感じで出されるので英語が全くできない人には少し不安かもしれません。
1点残念だったのが同行者の鐙が短すぎて、出発前からそれがわかっていたのに馬を変えたり装具を変えたりすることなく出発したため後々足が痛くなってしまったことです。一般的な体形の人であれば一番楽になるように都度調整してくれますが、たまたま身長の高い人が短い鐙をつけた馬に当たってしまったのが残念でした。
It flies higher than I imagined. Before departure, there was a light drizzle, but by the time we took off, the weather was clear. From above, you can see both Diamond Head and Waikiki Beach, which is a spectacular view. The wind was strong, and the aircraft swayed side to side in the air, making me feel a bit nauseous along the way.
Of course, it's advisable for those who are prone to motion sickness to take medication in advance, as there can be turbulence in the air as well.
While flying, there is also a photo service available upon request. They take over 80-100 photos, and for $40, you get the data download and a memory card. Due to an incident where another passenger on the boat got sick while we were flying, we only had 42 photos taken, so we bought them for half price at $20. You can check the photos before deciding to purchase, so I think it's a good idea to request them and buy if you're satisfied.
想像以上に高く飛びます。出発前は霧雨がぱらついていましたが出発時には晴天。上からはダイアモンドヘッドもワイキキビーチも一望できて壮観です。風が強くて上空で左右に揺れるので途中で酔いそうになりました。
船はもちろんですが、上空での揺れにも備えて乗り物酔いに弱い方は事前の酔い止めの服薬をおすすめします。
飛んでいる間は頼めば写真撮影サービスもあります。80-100枚以上撮影してくれてデータダウンロードとメモリーカード付で$40です。
私たちは飛んでいる間に船上の別のお客さんが吐いちゃうというアクシデントのため42枚しか撮影してもらえなかったので半額の$20で売ってもらいました。購入を決断する前に写真の確認をさせてもらえるので一応頼んでおいて納得できたら購入するという形でもいいと思います。
Such an awesome experience with great guides and entertainment.

Even as someone approaching their sixties, I was able to enjoy the bumper tubes and banana boat. The sea was beautiful, and I had a great experience.
還暦近くの私でも、バンパーチューブ、バナナボートは楽しめました。
海もきれいで、いい体験をさせていただきました。
Thank you for participating in the tour. We look forward to your next visit.
From all the KBOS staff.
この度はツアーへご参加頂きありがとうございました。またのご参加お待ちしております。 KBOS スタッフ一同
Secret Island is a very special place for our family. my daughter got a wedding in Moli'i garden and secret island during Covid.
we have a wonderful memory of her wedding with our closed family and friends only under 20 people.
it was a magical experience,so we had been always talking how we can go back to the island.
and we finally planned a family trip to Hawaii this spring, and we have been searched many different websites which offers a tour to the secret island.
this website did not have many reviews compared to other major travel websites, but their prices were the best so we decided to give it a shot.
and the decision was the best!
the reservation process, confirmation, instructions and everything was GREAT!
it was a little bit of cold and rainy day so we were the only group going to the island that day. we basically rented the entire island to ourselves.
we highly recommend this webstie for Kualoa ranch tour!
I make a reservation every time I come to Hawaii. Especially while waiting for the sunset, enjoying my favorite sparkling wine, Hawaiian beer, and cocktails is the best.
ハワイに来る度に予約してます
特にサンセットを待ちながらゆっくり好きなスパークリング、ハワイビール、カクテル三昧は最高です
Unbelievable view of the island from where we were. Amazing experience to say the least.
Mahalo for your review! - Team KBOS
An amazing experience and the staff (Dom and Bill) were outstanding! Super funny and great guides. I would recommend them highly.
We enjoyed our half-day experience. As tourists, the Secret Island experience was nice because it satisfied my desire to do kayaking and paddle boarding. The beach was nice for young kids because they had supplies to build sand-castles, however that is the most of what my young children really enjoyed. In retrospect, most of the activities there would be best for older children and teenagers to really enjoy. For families with younger children, it may be best to buy some sand toys and head to a local beach.
