Oahu
Cody Park was my ASL interpreter and he really made the experience so fun!!! 4 hours went by so fast!!! Wish we had more time!!
Rained this day and we were nervous for the tour, but funny enough the rain made the experience even better!
Really a blast, the ziplines are so fast, and the little hiking to each line was gorgeous
I liked the individual ATVs! And the farm was beautiful
Tons of fun! Mahalo to the crew for making this evening filled with fun!
Loved this evening on the water, with the sunset, and delicious food!
It was reassuring to have two staff members who spoke Japanese. I was a bit nervous at first because we went further out to sea than I expected, but it makes sense... if the water is shallow, there won't be any fish to see, right? (laughs) I can't swim at all. I even dislike putting my face in the water. But please bear with that. After entering the sea, you'll put on the sea bob. After that, please do the equalization. If you can do that, you're good to go!!! At first, we'll get used to it near the surface, and if everything is fine, we'll dive a little deeper to meet the fish. It's strange to be underwater even though I can't swim. I wish I could have seen a few more types of fish, but that's being greedy... Time flew by, and when we got the signal to go back up, we returned to the boat. Once you're back on the boat, it gets cold with the wind, so please make sure to bring a jacket!!! Since there are other people, you can eat snacks and drink water while waiting. They will take videos and photos, which you can purchase at the end. Don't worry and just enjoy yourself. It became a lifelong memory.
日本語話せるスタッフが2人もいて心強かったです。
思ったよりも沖へ出たので始めはビビッていましたが
そうですよね...海中に入って魚を見るのですから浅かったら
魚いませんもんね(笑)
私は全く泳げません。
水に顔をつけるのも嫌です。がそれだけは我慢して下さい。
海に入ってからシーボブを被ります。
そのあとは耳抜きをして下さい。それが出来ればこっちのもの!!!
始めは海面近くで慣らして問題なければもう少し潜って魚たちと御対面~。
泳げないのに海中にいる自分が不思議。もう少し違う種類の
魚が見られたらよかったのですが贅沢ですね...。あっという間に時間が
経ち、もう上に行くよって合図があり船に戻りました。船にあがって
からは風に吹かれて寒くなるので必ず上着を持って行って下さい!!!
他の人たちもいるので待っている間にスナックを食べたり水が飲めます。
動画撮影、写真撮影して下さるので最後に購入出来ます。
心配せずに楽しんじゃって下さいね。一生の思い出になりました。
Thanksgiving in November was windy and the waves were strong, making it very cold!
However, the boat didn't sway, and the staff's service was excellent.
I had a great time!
11月サンクスギビングは風と波があって、とても寒かった!
でも船は揺れないし、スタッフのサービスも満点。
とても楽しませて頂きました!
Definitely a splendid evening, whats better than being on the beautiful Waikiki waters
It’s cool and all, just not much to do out there. Basically paying to swim 10 minutes off the beach. Not worth the money.
I participated in light clothing. I set out thinking it would be an easy hiking course, but due to the bad weather the day before, we had to navigate through a fallen bamboo grove along the way.
Before reaching the waterfall, there were steep slopes that made me sweat a lot, but the sense of accomplishment was 100%.
On the way back, we had lunch, which was delicious and felt like a reward. I was very satisfied.
The view from Tantalus Lookout on the way back was also great, making it the best course overall.
軽装で参加いたしました。手軽なハイキングコースと思いつつ出発しましたが、前日荒天だったとのことで途中倒れかけた竹藪の中を進みました
滝に到着するまでは、きつい坂道もあり汗でびっしょりになりましたが
達成感は100%でした
帰りにはランチをいただきましたが、これがまた美味しくて ご褒美のようで
大満足でした。
帰途タンタラスの丘からの眺めも良くて コースとしては最高でした
Timely pick up and drop off with friendly and knowledgable guide/driver.
It was a valuable experience to see the underwater world in Hawaii. However, I couldn't find any information about "Japanese narration available for download." Once seated, there was no opportunity to ask questions to the staff. In reality, there were no staff members available to answer questions, and at both the boat before boarding the submarine and at the meeting point, there was no situation where I could inquire about the "Japanese narration available for download." There were also no Japanese brochures. This was very disappointing.
ハワイの海中を見ることができ貴重な体験でした。
ただ、『日本語ナレーションダウンロード可能』はどこへやら?
座席につくと係の人に質問できる状況ではなかったです。実際には質問できるような係の人はいないし、潜水艦に乗る前の船でも、集合場所でも『日本語ナレーションダウンロード可能』の質問ができるような状況ではありませんでした。日本語パンフレットもありませんでした。これが非常に残念でした。
Thank you for using VELTRA.
We are glad to hear that you had a valuable experience.
However, we apologize for not being able to provide information regarding the Japanese narration, which may have caused you some anxiety on the day of the tour.
We received notice from the local operating company that the Japanese service has changed, and we updated the tour page recently.
To avoid similar inconveniences in the future, we will work closely with the local team to ensure better service.
Thank you for your understanding.

VELTRAをご利用くださりありがとうございます。
貴重な体験ができたようで、嬉しく思います。
しかしながら、日本語ナレーションにつきましてご案内できておらず、当日不安なお気持ちにさせてしまいましたことお詫び申し上げます。
現地催行会社より日本語サービスが変更になっているとの連絡を受け、先日ツアーページを更新しました。
今後同様のご迷惑をおかけしないためにも、現地とのコミュニケーションを密にとって、より良いサービスが提供できるよう努めてまいります。
何卒よろしくお願いします。

We did the Jungle expedition, movie sets and agriculture tours. The guides at the ranch were great. The ranch itself is beautiful. We learned a lot of interesting facts about Polynesian culture, what’s grown on the ranch and got to try a few foods while on the agriculture tour. I took a star off because the bus driver was kind of a jerk. He complained about the other driver and belittled us for not laughing at his jokes or wanting to interact with his aggressive attempt at a side show on the way to the ranch. One lady did attempt to interact with him by asking a question and he got angry with her. No one attempted to engage with him after that. On the ride back to Waikiki he didn’t speak and hurried people off at their stops.
- Highlight of our Hawaii trip!!!!
- views of the ranch/mountains are breathtaking, not to mention it is next to the ocean
- don't expect to go too fast on the ATV's, the tour is for vibes not adrenaline
- tour guides were awesome, energetic
- got to see wildlife(cows, etc)
- 10/10 must do on your hawaii trip, worth the price of admission
We had the best time. Memories to last a lifetime and fantastic pictures also.
What a very pleasant activity. My husband who does not go into the water loved it and wants to do it again. Great crew. We had a great time
Aloha! We are so happy you and your husband were pleasantly surprised by such an awesome, and unique experience during your outrigger canoe ride. It truly is an experience like no other. We appreciate you taking the time to give us a 5 star rating and write a review! Mahalo and Happy Holidays!
The buggy experience is about a 40-minute bus ride from Waikiki, and you get to drive quite a bit. You can use your Japanese driver's license, and since it's an automatic, there's no need to worry! The local guides are friendly, and the breathtaking views in front of you are just like what you see in the movie Jurassic Park.
There are also tours that take you around the movie set, but I’m glad we chose this option as a family of three. You can switch drivers, so my eldest son took the wheel partway through. Since it takes up almost a full day, I recommend planning your schedule accordingly. I highly recommend it!
ワイキキからバスで40分くらいのエリアでのバギー体験で、結構ガッツリ運転します。日本の免許で大丈夫ですしオートマなので心配無用!
現地ガイドも気さくな方達で何より目の前に現れる絶景が映画ジュラシックパークで観たものそのもの。
映画セットを周るツアーもありますが、家族3人で参加したのですがこちらを選択して良かったです。
運転は交代も出来るので途中からは長男がハンドルを握りました。
日中を1日ほぼ使い切るのでそのつもりで予定立てると良いと思います。
オススメします。
Guides were patient and informative. Saw some cool fish! Would definitely recommend
I participated with friends experiencing ZIP for the first time. It was a lot of fun with dynamic ZIP and enthusiastic staff who really got everyone excited, along with American young people.
ZIP初体験の仲間を連れて参加。
米国の若者と一緒。ダイナミックなZIPとサービス精神に溢れたスタッフの盛り上げでとても楽しかった。
The powerful dances of the men, the delicate and gentle dances of the women, and the authentic fire dance were overwhelming; it was a great experience. The food was also delicious.
様々な迫力ある男性の舞、可憐で優しげな女性の踊り、本格的な火踊りには圧倒される、良い体験だった。食事も美味しかった。
After racing along the dirt paths of the jungle while explaining the surroundings and enjoying the vast scenery, it was a bit disappointing to feel increasingly deflated during the movie set tour and the visit to the farmer's living area. If we were going to explore similar spaces, it might have been better to have different experiences like horseback riding or cycling. I wish there had been clearer explanations of the activities during the booking phase.
ジャングルの土道を説明しながら疾駆し、広大な景色を満喫した後、映画撮影現場ツアー、農家の生活域への訪問と続いて、どんどん気持ち的に萎えてしまう様だったのが少々残念。同じ様な空間を回るのであれば、乗馬とかサイクリングとかの別形態の体験をした方が良かったかも知れないと、もう少し体験内容の事前説明を募集段階で判るようにしてあったらと思う。
Best experience I have ever had on an excursion. Our tour guide, Jackson, was the best! He was so helpful and extremely knowledgeable about the land and the conservation of it as well as all the movies filmed there along with dates and cast. For a huge movie buff that was an extra bonus for me. I thoroughly enjoyed this activity with my family. The two hour trek was great and wasn't too long. I loved that the tour provided bandanas, helmets, and goggles for all participants. Best trip ever!
Thank you very much for your kind assistance the day before yesterday, Kanako! I appreciate your enthusiastic explanations during the tour! I look forward to seeing you again tomorrow.
KANAKOさん一昨日は大変お世話になりました!
ツアー中の熱心なご説明有難うございました!
明日も宜しくお願い致します。
I participated because I wanted to experience the great nature of Hawaii. I was a bit worried from past reviews that there might be little time to see the filming locations, but since I wasn't driving, I was able to enjoy it fully while riding! I recommend it for those who want to see many filming locations! Also, the hospitality of the staff who drove us was amazing; they drove over the bumpy roads like it was an attraction, and I was impressed the entire two hours. The shuttle bus was also on time, so even though it takes half a day, I think the cost-performance ratio is excellent!
ハワイの大自然を感じてみたくて参加しました。過去レビューから、ロケ地を見る時間が少ないのかなと少し心配でしたが、運転していなかったため乗りながらでも充分楽しめました!沢山のロケ地を見たい方にはおすすめです!また、ドライバーをしてくださったスタッフさんのホスピタリティが凄くて、でこぼこ道をアトラクションのように運転してくれてすごい!と思いっぱなしの2時間でした。送迎バスも遅延がなかったので、半日かかりますが時間のコスパは最高だと思います!
Best experience ever in Hawaii. Made me want to move to Oahu just to keep taking the excursion and will do again. The weather was perfect, even though it rained at the end!!! We brought headties to cover our hair and goggles and bandanas were provided!!! Jackson was our tour guide and his energy made it most enjoyable. His attitude about life and the confidence with which he spoke made us feel safe and would have stayed an additional hour if given the opportunity!!!
We really enjoyed the trip. All staffs are super friendly and helpful. Everything we needed were prepared and provided. I wish I had chosen a less windy day, but regardless, we all had a great time, whether in water or on the boat.
Our time at sand bar was amazing, it started with the crew and the musicians.
they made us comfortable and answered all our questions.
We had booked the banana boat and bumper package and it was exhilarating.
Looking forward to our next trip so we can book another tour.
Driving a buggy in the wonderful nature of Hawaii was a lot of fun, something you can't experience in Japan. However, the roads are not only unpaved but also quite bumpy in all directions. There was a sign stating that the maximum speed limit is 20 km/h, but the instructor driving the lead buggy instructed us to maintain a distance of just 2 meters from the buggy in front. That instructor was comfortably driving at 30 km/h, making it difficult to keep up and I was worried about tipping over. The engine brake worked well, but the foot brake was quite weak, so I was also concerned about crashing into the buggy ahead. I enjoyed it more in the second half once I got used to it, but until then, I felt more anxious than anything else.
There were more people in shorts, so it didn't seem necessary to wear long pants. Occasionally, there were explanations in English, but I, not being good at it, couldn't understand at all. The scenery was amazing, so I recommend it for those who are confident in their driving skills.
ハワイの素晴らしい大自然の中で日本では経験できないバギー車を運転出来てとても楽しかった。ただし道は未舗装であるだけでなく、前後左右にかなり凸凹です。張り紙には最高速度は20km/hまでとの速度制限の記載があるのですが、先頭バギー車を運転する指導員からは、前を走るバギー車との車間を2メートルに詰めて走行するように指示されました。その指導者は平気で30km/hを出すので、付いていくのが大変で横転が心配でした。またエンジンブレーキは良く効くのですが、フットブレーキはかなり甘いので前のバギーへの追突も心配でした。後半は慣れたので楽しかったのですが、慣れるまでは不安の方が強かったです。
短パンの人の方が多かったので、長ズボンである必要はないようでした。
時々英語で説明がありますが、苦手な私は全く理解できませんでした。
景色は最高でしたので、運転に自信がある人にはお勧めします。
The crew and experienced was amazing. We would go back for sure
