My wife and I, along with our daughter and her husband and our grandchild, participated in the event. We checked the tide schedule in advance and joined, but it wasn't as low tide as we expected. As a result, our grandchild stayed with us on the boat. However, our daughter and her husband enjoyed paddleboarding and kayaking. Additionally, during snorkeling, we were able to admire various fish along with the coral reefs. We are grateful for the kind assistance from the staff.

私たち老夫婦は、娘夫婦と孫と参加しました。事前に干潮の日時を調べて参加しましたが、思ったほどの干潮ではありませんでした。よって、孫は船内に私たちと待機でした。しかし、娘夫婦はSUPやカヤックを堪能しました。また、スノーケリングでは、サンゴ礁とともに様々な魚を鑑賞することができました。スタッフの皆さんの優しいご対応に感謝します。

I had such a great experience eight years ago that I can honestly say I came to Hawaii just for this. The course has changed a bit since my last visit, and it was nice to see different places. There was a photographer who took pictures of each person, and they were available for purchase afterward. This time, the guide took photos with their own phone during the ride, and I received them via AirDrop afterward. The photos turned out really well. There are no guides who speak Japanese. Since the horseback riding lasts for two hours, if you're concerned about sunburn, it's essential to apply sunscreen on your face as well.

8年前に体験してとても良かったので、今回はこの為にハワイへ来たと言ってもいいくらいです。
前回とコースが少し変わっていてまた違うところを見れて良かったです。
カメラマンがいて一人一人写真を撮ってくれ、終わったあと販売されているのですが、今回のガイドさんは、途中でご自身の携帯カメラで写真を撮ってくれ、終わったあとAirDropで貰えました。とても良い写真でした。
日本語を話せるガイドさんはいません。
2時間の乗馬なので、日焼けを気にされる方は顔にも日焼け止め必須です。

We loved everything about the this tour. We went in the morning, and the water was almost waist deep but it didn’t bother us. We got to see many fish by snorkeling, did standup paddle boarding, kayaking, and listened to the amazing musicians perform onboard. The crew were very kind, helpful and entertaining. They made it extra fun. My husband and I had a great time and would gladly do it again, only with KBOS. Highly recommend going with this crew.

My husband and I had a wonderful first trip with this company and first excursion together. All the staff were very friendly and accommodating. There was live music and the atmosphere was great. We would definitely recommend this for anyone else looking for something fun to do while you’re staying in Hawaii.

It was an English-only tour, but I participated without knowing any English at all. The guide explained everything in easy-to-understand English and made it incredibly enjoyable! If you're debating between this and a buggy, I definitely recommend this one! The bicycles are electric and have a mode for uphill, so it's super easy!

英語のみのツアーになりますが、英語が全く分からない状態で参加しました。
ガイドの方が分かりやすい英語で説明してくれ、めちゃくちゃ楽しませてくれました！
バギーと迷っているなら断然こちらをオススメします！
自転車も電動で、坂道用のモードもあるので、ラクラクです♪

Everything was smooth sailing from our pick up at the Hyatt to being delivered back to the Hyatt after. Boarding was quick and easy. We had a member with mobility issues and even though the boat was rocking a little bit while going through the buffet she made it safely back to her seat with all her food still on the plate. Our waiter was Ryan and he was great. Very efficient and he loves to dance. He led us on a music train around the room, then got up and danced on the stage.
Food was decent, what I will say is it is typical buffet food. Nothing stood out as a WOW. The entertainment was good and lively. Also typical Polynesian dances if you've been to a Luau. Fireworks at the end of the night were spectacular and watching them from the water was a highlight.

Our boat captain was terrific, we were able to see two species of whales, many dolphins 3 turtles from the boat and two more snorkeling. Not sure how it could have been any better. Best thing we did in Hawaii

The buggy experience is wonderful. You can enjoy it even if you don't know the movie. A person who speaks Japanese will explain things before check-in after you arrive. However, once the buggy experience starts, it will be in English only. But you can generally understand it. The buggy doesn't go for a full two hours without stopping; it stops at power spots along the way. Also, the bus driver for the shuttle was very lively and provided guidance throughout the drive.

バギー体験は素晴らしいです。映画を知らなくても楽しめます。日本語を喋れる人は到着後チェックイン前に説明をしてくれます。しかし、バギー体験が始まると英語のみになります。でも、大体わかります。バギーも2時間ぶっ通しではなく、パワースポットごとに停止します。
あと、送迎のバスの運転手がノリが良くて終始運転しながらガイドしてました。

We will take a boat to the sea at Waikiki, and during that time, we can see Diamond Head and the streets of Waikiki. There aren't many fish in the waters of Waikiki, but there are a lot of fish around the sunken ship, which is very interesting. When you take photos, they come out a bit blue and are somewhat hard to see, but if you actually see it, you can tell that the sea is beautiful. The interior of the ship is a bit cold. However, it was truly a wonderful experience, and I don't think I'll have such an experience again.

船でワイキキの海に行きますが、その間にダイヤモンドヘッドやワイキキの街並みを見ることができます。ワイキキの海の中はあまり魚はいないですが、沈没船の周りには多くの魚がおり、非常に面白いです。写真を撮ると青みがかかり、少し見にくいですが、実際に見れば美しい海だと言うことがわかります。艦内は少し寒いです。ただ、本当に素晴らしい体験でしたし、こんな経験は2度とできないでしょう。

I wasn't confident in my swimming skills, but since we wore life jackets, there were no problems, and the guides were always watching over us. The guides also spoke a little Japanese. We brought waterproof cases for our smartphones and filmed scenes of us swimming with the fish. We left our belongings on the chairs inside the boat. There was always someone watching over us inside the boat, and I heard there are security cameras as well.

I was able to see sea turtles from the boat twice! It felt strange to be away from land yet in shallow water. It was truly amazing.

I'm grateful to the guides as well. At the end, I gave a tip to the person who was always singing for us. Thank you very much! 😊

泳ぎに自信が無かったですが、ライフガードを着用するので問題ないですし、常にガイドさんが見張ってくれます。そのガイドさんたちも日本語を少し喋ってくれます。私たちはスマホ用防水ケースを持っていき、魚と泳ぐシーンを動画で撮影しました。荷物は、船内の椅子に置いてました。船内は常に誰かが見張ってくれますし、防犯カメラもあるそうです。
ウミガメは船内から2度見ることができました！陸から離れているのに浅瀬という不思議な感覚になりました。ほんとに最高でした。
ガイドさんにも感謝です。最後は常に歌ってくれていた方にチップをお渡ししました。
ありがとうございました😊

I was lucky enough to see whales, dolphins, and turtles all in one trip. We saw five whales, 15 dolphins, one turtle in the sea, and three on land. I'm not very good at snorkeling, so I watched the dolphins from above the water, and my snorkeling experience was only about 15 minutes, but I was very satisfied. However, the boat was really rocky, and since I tend to get seasick, I took motion sickness medication the night before and in the morning, which helped me manage. Unfortunately, another group of Japanese tourists was vomiting the whole time. Also, the boat ride and the bus back were cold after snorkeling, so it's essential to have something to wear.

運が良かったのが、クジラ・イルカ・カメを全部見ることができました。
クジラは５頭、イルカは15頭、カメは海で１匹、陸で３匹でした。
シュノーケルはあまり得意はないので、イルカは海の上から見て、シュノーケルも15分程度の体験でしたが、非常に満足しました。
ただ、船の揺れはすごく、自分はかなり船酔いするタイプなので、前日の夜と当日の朝に酔い止めを飲んでなんとか平気でしたが、もう一組の日本人はずっと吐いてました。
また、シュノーケル後の船と帰りのバスは寒いので、羽織るものは必須です。

Very fun and staff were awesome and very helpful !

The fish population was denser than at Hanauma Bay, and I even encountered a sea turtle while paddleboarding. The songs on the boat were wonderful!

For lunch, it was just a piece of ham and a piece of cheese sandwiched between two slices of bread, which left me thinking, "Really... is this lunch?" If they had made it a bit more luxurious, it would have balanced out the overall experience, but this part felt too cost-cutting and might lower the impression of the whole trip.

ハナウマベイよりは魚影が濃く、サップ中にウミガメにも会えました。
船上の歌も素敵でした！

ランチはパンにハム1枚とチーズ1枚挟んだだけの物で、「えぇ、、これがランチ？」と言う印象。もう少しだけ豪華にすれば総合的にバランスが取れるのに、ここだけコスト抑え過ぎてて全体の印象が落ちてしまいそうです。

Show was great! Chief and his family put so much positive energy into the whole event! Food was very good!

My granddaughter and I participated in the Dolphin Quest excursion. The staff was very educated. They gave us a lot of information on those amazing creatures.

Enjoy the quick boat ride the helpful staffs and the sandbar

The underwater scenery with sunken ships and airplane wrecks was amazing. We saw a lot of fish as well. However, my wife seemed to be struggling with seasickness.

沈没船や飛行機の残骸など、海の中は凄かった。たくさんの魚もみられた。　
ただ、妻は船酔いで辛そうでした。

In February, my family of five had an experience. It was cloudy and we encountered a downpour along the way, but that was actually nice. The rain added to the atmosphere and made it a wonderful experience. It became an unforgettable memory. In February, it can be cold if you go in short sleeves, so I think it's better to prepare a light jacket. Don't forget to bring a change of clothes. There are lockers where you can use a credit card, so you can store your things there. I was quite hesitant because it was expensive, but it became the best memory of this trip to Hawaii.

２月に家族5人で体験しました。曇っていて途中スコールになりましたが、それはそれで良かったです。スコールも雰囲気がでて素敵な体験でした。忘れられない思い出になりました。２月は半袖で行くと寒い事もあるので薄い上着を用意した方が良いと思います。着替えも忘れずに持って行って下さい。クレジットカードが使えるロッカーがあるのでそこに入れておけます。
結構高額で悩みましたが今回のハワイ旅行の1番の思い出になりました。

This was the most enjoyable experience of my trip to Hawaii!

I actually got to drive a buggy and go off-roading, and it was a moment where I thought, "I'm so glad I have my license." The off-road course was quite authentic and something you can't easily experience in Japan, and the scenery was amazing. I was thrilled the entire time as we drove past movie filming locations and more.

The instructor's explanations were mostly in English, but he had a very Hawaiian vibe and a sense of humor, making the lecture enjoyable, so I had no worries at all.

Since we had an early departure at 6 AM and I was picked up from the hotel, I had eaten breakfast beforehand. However, the shuttle bus made a stop in front of another hotel and suddenly announced, "Feel free to go grab breakfast!" It was a relaxed, Hawaiian-style break that I found amusing. I did feel a bit anxious about being left behind even though they took attendance, so I chose to stay on the bus and wait.

We had a two-hour course this time, but it flew by, and I thought, "Maybe I should have gone for the three-hour option," because it was so much fun.

In any case, I believe this is an experience you can only have in Hawaii, so I highly recommend this activity to anyone who is considering it!

ハワイ旅行の中で一番楽しかった体験でした！

実際に自分でバギーを運転してオフロードを走るのですが、「免許を取っていてよかった」と思える瞬間でした。日本ではなかなか体験できないような本格的なオフロードコースで、景色も最高。映画のロケ地なども見ながら走れるので、終始テンションが上がりました。

インストラクターの説明はほとんど英語でしたが、とてもハワイアンな雰囲気でユーモアもあり、楽しくレクチャーしてくれるので全く不安はありませんでした。

朝6時にホテルへ迎えに来てもらう早朝出発だったので事前に朝食を食べておいたのですが、送迎バスが途中で別のホテル前に停まり「ブレックファースト行ってきていいよー」と急に休憩タイムが入ったのも、なんだかハワイらしいゆるい感じで面白かったです。
ただ、点呼はしていたものの置いて行かれたら怖いなと思い、私はバスから降りずに待っていました。

今回は2時間コースでしたが、あっという間で「3時間にしておけばよかったかも」と少し思うくらい楽しかったです。

とにかく、ハワイでしかできない体験だと思うので、迷っている人にはぜひおすすめしたいアクティビティです！

Riding horses in the breathtaking nature was truly enjoyable. If you want to fully appreciate the great outdoors, I believe horseback riding is better than taking a buggy. It's completely fine even for beginners. Basically, all the horses are calm and well-behaved. Occasionally, there were some that didn't have a muzzle and would nibble on the grass along the way...

However, the saddles on all the horses tended to shift. The initial setup wasn't very good, which put a lot of strain on my knees, and after getting off the horse, it was tough to walk for a while. But since I love horses, I was able to ride a lot and had a great time.

At Kualoa Ranch, there are staff members at the main reception and guides who can speak Japanese, which is very kind and reassuring.

圧巻の大自然のなかでの乗馬は本当に楽しかったです。大自然をゆっくり堪能するなら、バギーより乗馬だと思います。初めてでも全然問題ないです。基本的に馬はみんな大人しくてお利口さんばかり。たまに口輪をしていない子は、道草を食ってしまっていましたが…。
ただ、どの馬の鞍もずれてきてしまうんですよね…もともとのセッティングがあまり上手くなくて、膝にすごく負担がかかり下馬後、しばらく歩くのが辛かったですが、馬が好きなのでたっぷり乗れて楽しめました。
クアロアランチはメイン受付や案内のスタッフにも日本語が話せる方がいて、すごく親切で安心です。

The waves were high, and I was thrown into the sea while on the bumper tube (laughs), but it was very thrilling and the best experience. I highly recommend this combination.

波が高くバンパーチューブでは海に飛ばされ（笑）ましたが、とてもスリリングで最高でした。この組み合わせおすすめです。

It was fun! The staff was lively, and not only was the parasailing itself enjoyable, but the journey there was fun too! Even getting seasick is a good memory, haha!

楽しかったです！
スタッフさんもノリノリでパラセーリング自体はもちろん移動中も楽しかったです！！
船酔いもいい思い出です笑

Thought everything what amazing. Stopped at all the areas for pictures and Ivan our guide was tremendous. Could not have had a better experience!!!

What a rush !!! Excellent excursion!!
Closest thing to being in a surfboard.
Guide excelled at giving understandable directions.

The water was cold, so we couldn't play for long, but we had a great time snorkeling and seeing lots of fish, as well as enjoying stand-up paddleboarding.

水が冷たくてのんびり長くあそべませんでしたが、シュノーケリングで沢山の魚を見たり、サップを楽しんだり楽しかったです。

At first, I was worried, but it was easy to understand because they taught me with gestures and hand signals. Driving the buggy was also simple, and the scenery was amazing.

最初は心配でしたが、身振り､手振りで教えてくれるのでわかりやすかったです。バギーの運転も簡単だったし、景色も最高でした。

The cheerful staff keeps you entertained. Although it's in English, they are accustomed to Japanese people and explain things with gestures, so there are no problems. The parasailing itself is fantastic. If I have the chance, I would like to do it again next time.

It's fine to bring bags like backpacks. You can store your belongings and sandals in the space under the seats, so they won't get wet. Of course, managing valuables is each person's responsibility. I think the photo option will be added unless you decline it. This time, I participated with three people, and one stayed on the boat, so taking photos with my smartphone was sufficient. With a smartphone, you can also take videos, and if one person is staying on the boat, I think the photo option isn't necessary. However, if there isn't anyone to take photos from the boat, it would be better to opt for it.

The boat rocked, but I didn't get seasick. It might have been influenced by the fact that there were only two groups participating and it was a short time.

陽気なスタッフが楽しませてくれます。英語ですけど、日本人に慣れていて身振り手振りで説明をしてくれるので問題ありません。パラセーリング自体は最高です。機会があれば次回もやりたいと思っています。

リュックなど荷物を持ち込んでも大丈夫です。腰掛け下のスペースに荷物やサンダルなどを入れて保管しますので水には濡れません。もちろん貴重品は各自の責任での管理となります。写真撮影のオプションは断らない限りつけられてしまうと思います。今回、私は3人名での参加で1名が船に残っている状況でしたので、スマホでの撮影で事足りました。スマホだと動画も撮れるし1名が船に残っているのであれば、写真オプションはなくても良いと思います。もし船から撮影してくれる人がいないのであれば、オプションつけた方が良いです。
船は揺れましたが船酔いはしなかったです。2組の参加で短時間であったということも影響したかもしれませんが。

My wife wanted to try it, so even though I have a fear of heights, I decided to participate. There were about ten other participants at the same time. We flew in pairs or threes, but since we were last in line, we had time to mentally prepare ourselves. I think each group flew for about seven minutes. When we actually took off, it was scary, but the view of Hawaii from the sky was breathtaking.

You can bring your phone while flying, but I didn't have much opportunity to take pictures. You can also purchase photos taken from the boat, or ask other participants to take pictures for you. The photos you buy are often taken with professional cameras, and they turned out well, so I recommend purchasing some as a keepsake.

一緒に行った妻がやってみたいとのことで、私は高所恐怖症でしたが参加することに。参加した時間は他にも参加者が多く10人くらいとなりました。2人もしくは3人で飛んでいましたが、自分達は順番が最後だったので心の準備をする時間がありました。1グループ7分程度空を飛んでいたと思います。実際に飛ぶと怖いのは怖いですが、空からのみたハワイの景色は絶景でした。
携帯も持って飛べますが、自分はあまり写真を撮る余裕はありませんでした。船からの写真は購入もできますし、他の参加者にお願いして撮ってもらうこともできます。購入した写真は本格的なカメラで撮ってもらえることもあり、写りはよかったので思い出に写真購入することをおすすめします。

I went to Hawaii for my honeymoon, and it seemed like such a fun experience that I made a reservation! The guide mostly spoke English, but I was able to watch an explanation video in Japanese before the horseback riding, so I understood most of it!

All the horses were smart, and even beginners could enjoy it safely. The scenery was amazing, and I really feel like I made a great choice in booking this. It became a wonderful memory!

新婚旅行でハワイへ行き、とても楽しそうな体験だなと思い予約しました！
ガイドさんはほとんど英語でしたが、乗馬前の説明動画は日本語での説明を見る事ができたので、大体の事は理解できました！

どのお馬さんもお利口で、初心者でも安全に楽しむ事ができました。景色も最高で、本当に予約してよかったなと思っています。
とても素敵な思い出になりました！

I heard that we would rise to 150 meters above the ground, and I was very scared, but being in the air was very meaningful, and there was no shaking, so I enjoyed it. However, I experienced the worst seasickness ever while on the boat before taking off. I knew that a certain speed was necessary for flying, and I took motion sickness medication, but it didn't help. Others were also feeling unwell and had to sit down, so I think once in a lifetime is enough for me.

地上から150mまで上がると聞いてとても怖かったのですが、空中はとても有意義で揺れもなく楽しめました。が、飛ぶまでの船内で過去一船酔いしました。飛ぶのにそれ相応の速度が必要なのは承知しており、私は酔い止めを飲みましたがダメでした。他の方も体調不良でダウンしており、人生で1度乗れば十分かなと思いました。
