The banana boat can hold six people, and while it goes fast, it's not so fast that you'll be thrown off, so you can enjoy it with peace of mind.

We happened to see a lot of honu (sea turtles), so we were able to see them up close. They said we were lucky, so it might be rare to see them.

Other activities (like canoeing) may have limited availability, so you might need to wait your turn.

However, since we had plenty of time, there was no need to rush.

バナナボートは6人乗りで、スピードは速いけど振り落とされるような速さではないので、安心して楽しめる。

たまたまホヌがいっぱいいたので、近くで見ることが出来た。
運がいいと言っていたので、中々見ることが出来ないのかも？

他のアクティビティ(カヌーなど)は、数に限りがあるので、順番待ちする必要があるかもしれません。

ただ時間に余裕があったので、そんなに焦る必要はない。

The buggy experience was a lot of fun! The driving time was surprisingly long, and the range of activities was wide, making it enjoyable.

However, the dust was intense, so it's better to wear clothes that you don't mind getting dirty, and you might want to bring skincare products like facial cleansers as well.

バギーの体験はとても楽しかった！
運転時間が意外と長くて、行動範囲が広いので楽しい。

ただ砂埃がすごい、全身砂だらけで汚れた服で行った方がいいし、顔も洗顔などのスキンケア商品を持って行った方がいいかもしれません。

I was able to see both sea turtles and dolphins. I was also hoping to see tropical fish while snorkeling, but that didn't happen.

ウミガメもイルカも見ることができました。シュノーケリングで熱帯魚を見ることも期待しておりましたが、それはかないませんでした。

Two first-time participants.
The staff on board were very friendly, and we had a great time.
There were some changes from last time, and it was meaningful to participate!

初参加２名。
船中のスタッフは、とってもフレンドリーで楽しく過ごせました。
前回と少しずつ変化していてそれなりに参加することに意義あり！でした。

We participated as a family! My high school and middle school sons were hesitant to join, but once they got on the canoe and rode the waves, they shouted that it was amazing!! It feels really great, so if you're unsure, I definitely recommend participating!

家族で参加しました！
高校生と中学生の息子は参加を渋ってましたが、実際にカヌーに乗って波に乗ると最高と叫んでいました！！
本当に気持ち良いので迷ったらぜひ参加をお勧めします！

Fantastic experience, the whole process is smooth, the staff are friendly and accommodating

This tour was amazing and so much fun. The tour guides were fantastic. The views of Oahu while ziplining and on the platforms were stunning. I have ziplined in NZ & Fiji but this would be my favourite. The ATV ride was an added bonus. I would highly recommend this tour.

The staff were friendly, and I had a great experience. This was my second time parasailing in Hawaii; I used a different company last time, and compared to them, the number of photos taken and the variety of shots were very limited, which was disappointing.

スタッフの方も気さくで、楽しい体験ができました。ハワイでのパラセーリングは2回目で、前回は別の会社を利用しましたが、そちらに比べて写真を撮ってくれた枚数や撮影のバリエーションが非常に少なく残念でした。

Snorkeling and ocean leisure activities (such as banana boat rides, boating, and stand-up paddleboarding) are included, making it enjoyable for a variety of people. The snorkeling area is very shallow, so even those who are not good swimmers can enjoy it safely. The staff is friendly and speaks both Japanese and English.

シュノーケルと海のレジャー（バナナボート、ボートやサップ等）がついていて色々な人が楽しめます。シュノーケルもとても浅いエリアなので、泳ぎが苦手でも全然安全に楽しめます。スタッフは日本語、英語ともにOKでフレンドリーです

It was a tour where I could do everything I wanted at once: exploring sandbars, observing sea turtles, and snorkeling. The staff was friendly and accommodating in both English and Japanese, which made me feel very secure. Meals and drinks were included, and I could also experience the atmosphere of international cuisine.

サンドバー散策、うみがめ観察、シュノーケルとやりたいことが一度でできるツアーでした。スタッフも親切で英語も日本語にも対応しているのでとても安心です。食事や飲み物も含まれていて海外の食事の雰囲気も感じられます

It was my first time paragliding. I had a wonderful experience in favorable weather. The two guys were very friendly and communicated in English, explaining things with clear gestures. The wind on the boat was pleasant, and the scenery was amazing.

パラセイリング初めてでした。
天候に恵まれた中で、素敵な体験をすることができました。お兄さん２人も、英語でのコミュニケーションでしたが、とてもフレンドリーで、わかりやすいジェスチャーを入れながら説明してくれました。
ボートでの風も気持ちよく、景色も最高でした。

Tour consists of sandbar and coral reef with amazing burger lunch in-between. All gears for snorkeling were provided as well

I knew in advance that the tide wouldn't go below zero, but on this day, it felt like the tide was gradually rising. It was fun to do various activities like stand-up paddleboarding and kayaking. During snorkeling, we were given bread to feed the fish, and many of them came close.

潮位がマイナスにならないことは事前に分かっていたのですが、この日は段々潮位が上がっていく感じでした。
サップやカヤックなど、いろいろなアクティビティができて楽しかったです。
シュノーケリングでは、餌のパンをもらえて、魚がたくさん寄ってきます。

I initially thought about going with a four-wheeler, but the kids said it would be boring since they couldn't drive themselves, so we chose this instead. It was my first time on an e-bike, and I was worried, but there was practice at the beginning, and my middle school and upper elementary school daughters had no problems. The guide was a really nice person, and his explanations were interesting with jokes mixed in. He took a lot of great photos at the photo spots. It was late August in the afternoon, and I was concerned about the heat, but there were many clouds that day, so it was fine.

最初は四輪バギーにしようと思っていたのですが、子供たちが自分で運転できないのはつまらないというので、こちらにしました。Eバイクは初めてなので心配でしたが、最初に練習もあり、中学生と小学校高学年の娘でも問題なかったです。
ガイドさんがとてもいい人で、解説もジョークを交えて面白かったし、フォトスポットでは映える写真をたくさん撮ってくれました。
8月下旬の午後で、暑さが心配でしたが、当日は雲が多くて大丈夫でした。

We were the only Japanese people there, and I was anxious because I didn't understand English, but I managed to understand through gestures and by watching how others did it! At first, it was scary because it swayed a lot, but after that, it just felt amazing!! When we landed, they made sure our feet touched the sea, which was so much fun! I could feel the beautiful scenery and breeze of Hawaii, and it was the best experience! The location was also easy to find, near Kaka'ako, and after we finished, we went shopping and took a walk before heading back! If you love heights, you should definitely try this!

私たちしか日本人はおらず・・・英語がわからず不安でしたが、ジェスチャーや、前の人のやり方をみて理解！
飛び始めはゆらゆら揺れるので怖かったですが、そのあとはただただ気持ちいい！！
降りる時には海に足がつくように楽しませてくれました！
ハワイの景色と風を感じられて、最高の体験ができました！
場所もカカアコ近くでわかりやすく、終わってからも買い物や散歩をして帰りました！
高い所が好きな人はやるべきです！

Previously, I participated in a tour where we were driven around, but this time we joined a self-driving tour. It was a dynamic experience that was thrilling and allowed us to feel nature up close. The guide spoke English, and although I couldn't understand everything, they made a great effort to communicate in a fun way. They also took photos at various points, making it a wonderful experience.

以前は、乗せてもらうツアーに参加しましたが、今回は自分達で運転するツアーに参加しました。
迫力があり、自然を間近に感じるダイナミックな体験ができます。
ガイドの方は英語ですが、（全部理解はできませんでしたが）
一生懸命楽しく伝えようとして頂きました。ポイントでは写真も撮ってくださり、良い経験になりました。

Meeting at 5:40 AM before sunrise is indeed early, but we were still among the fourth or fifth group to enter the site. We rented a paid option for a parasol and chair set, which I highly recommend due to the strong sunlight. In the morning, there are relatively fewer people, making it enjoyable. Around 10 AM, we had an incredibly lucky surprise when a monk seal suddenly came up on the beach to rest, just about 10 meters from our base. My grandchild had been talking about wanting to see one since before coming to Hawaii, so it was great that we could make that happen by chance. There is a law requiring a distance of over 15 meters from monk seals, so it’s also a good memory that our base had to be moved quickly.

日の出前の５時４０分集合はさすがに早いが、それでも現地では４組〜５組めの入場グループでした。有料OPでパラソル・チェアセットをレンタルしましたが、日差しが強いのでぜひお勧めします。午前中はヒトも比較的少なく楽しめます。１０時頃に私たちのベース基地から１０ｍくらいの場所に突然にモンクシールが砂浜にあがってきて休憩するという超ラッキーサプライズに出会えました。一緒の孫がハワイに来る前から会いたいと話していたので、偶然にも叶えてあげられてよかったです。モンクシールには１５ｍ以上距離を取らなければいけない法律があるので、我々のベース基地は速攻移動させられたのもいい思い出です。

The sandbar is located inside the bay, so the waves were very calm. I usually get seasick, but this time I was fine. We saw turtles from the boat, and finally, we went snorkeling around the coral reef.

サンドバーが湾内なので波がとても穏やかでした。船酔いしやすい方ですが、今回は大丈夫でした。亀は船の上から見て、最後に珊瑚礁の周りをシュノーケリングしました。

The tour at Kualoa Ranch was amazing! The views were absolutely breathtaking, everything was very well organized, and the guide shared lots of interesting stories that made the experience even more special. Definitely worth it!

As a couple who are huge fans of the Jurassic series, this was a place we absolutely wanted to visit for our honeymoon. It was my first time riding a horse, so I was a bit nervous, but there was a proper briefing beforehand, and all the horses were well-behaved, so I had no worries during the ride. The highlight, without a doubt, is the breathtaking view! The scenery is beyond description, and I highly recommend it.

夫婦でジュラシックシリーズの大ファンなので、新婚旅行でどうしても訪れたかった場所です。お馬さんに乗るのも初めてだったので緊張しましたが、きちんと前もってのレクチャーもありましたし、お馬さんたちもみんなお利口さんなので、乗馬中は心配なかったです。見どころは、なんといってもその絶景！見晴らしの良さは説明不要で、是非ともおすすめしたいです。

This is my fourth trip to Hawaii. I finally fulfilled my long-held dream! I was simply moved in front of the magnificent nature created by the Big Island. This time, it rained a little along the way, so I hope to visit again in sunny weather next time.

4度目のハワイ旅行。ついに念願叶いました！ハワイ島が創り出した大自然の前に、ただただ感動。。今回途中で小雨が降ってきたので、次回は晴れの中伺いたいです。

This is my second time using this service, and I felt that it was a friendly and enjoyable surfing experience where I could stand up and ride the waves right away. I have tried other schools at Waikiki Beach, but this lesson is definitely the best. I will be visiting again soon, so thank you!

今回で2度目の利用になりますが、いずれもすぐに立って滑ることができ、親切で楽しいサーフィン体験スクールだと感じました。ワイキキビーチの他のスクールでも体験しましたが、やはりこちらのレッスンが一番です。近いうちにまた伺いますので、よろしくお願いします。

I took the shuttle bus from the Sheraton Hotel. The seats were unreserved and the air conditioning was quite strong. When we got off the bus, only the Japanese participants were called and given an explanation of the itinerary in Japanese. The tour itself was explained only in English, but the atmosphere was enjoyable.

シェラトンホテルから送迎バスで向かいました。車内は自由席でエアコンは冷房強め。
バスを降りると日本人だけ呼ばれて日本語で行程などの説明があります。ツアー自体は英語の説明のみでしたが、雰囲気は楽しかったです。

We set off with four groups, including ourselves. The boat that takes you to the flying area is already an attraction! We headed offshore while enjoying the sea breeze. The staff were cheerful, and we had a great time.

私たち含め、4組で出発しました。
飛ぶところまで行く船がもはやアトラクション！潮風を浴びながら沖合に出ました。
スタッフの方も陽気で楽しい時間を過ごせました。

Driving a buggy myself while touring movie filming locations was amazing. It took about two hours to joyfully explore the vast grounds. I ended up covered in dust from the swirling sand, but that gave me a sense of accomplishment and fulfillment, which was fantastic. The staff provided explanations about the area, but I couldn't understand English, so I would have appreciated a Japanese guide.

自分でバギーを運転しての映画の撮影スポット巡りは最高でした。広大な敷地を約2時間かけて爽快に周ります。巻き上がる砂煙で全身がドロドロになりますが、それはそれでやりきった感と充実感があって最高でした。
スタッフにより、現地の説明があるのですが、英語が分からず、日本語ガイドがあれば、嬉しかったです、、、

This tour was the perfect amount of time and offered so many different things to do. Nothing better than enjoying the day with your teenaged kids and they actually enjoyed being together. Thanks to everyone, especially the driver for the tubing/banana boat. So much fun!

Loved it , but wish we could’ve done more of Jurassic park stuff. But overall fun!

I can't speak English, but they explained things in an easy-to-understand way, allowing me to fly safely, enjoyably, and refreshingly. Towards the end, I felt a sense of unity with the unfamiliar foreigners, as if we were a family for a moment.

英会話はできないけど、わかりやすい言葉で説明して頂き、安全に楽しく、爽快に飛ぶことができました。
最後の方は知らない外国人達と一体感がうまれ、ひとときの家族の様でした。

The weather was great, and the feeling of riding a buggy through the great outdoors was incredible. The ocean, sky, and mountains offered a wonderful view. I heard it’s a filming location for various movies. I had an amazing time enjoying nature.

天気もよく、大自然の中バギーで滑走する気持ちよさたまらんですよー
海、空、山素晴らしい絶景
色々な映画のロケ地との事。
大自然を満喫できてサイコーでした。

It was difficult for me to make a reservation for Hanauma Bay on my own due to scheduling issues, so I took advantage of this plan that allowed me to have a reservation and enjoy my time at Hanauma Bay freely. I was anxious about my English speaking skills, but there was a guidance sheet in Japanese, and the driver was able to understand our limited English, which made communication enjoyable. The entrance fee was collected by the driver, and a participant from an English-speaking country paid for everyone.

Since it was my first time snorkeling, I borrowed a life jacket. In the early morning, it was a bit chilly, so the life jacket helped keep me warm and was also useful for snorkeling. Even in shallow areas, I could see fish swimming, including the humuhumunukunukuapua'a! I would like to request this again if the opportunity arises. Thank you very much.

自力でハナウマ湾の入場予約を取るには日程の都合で難しく、予約を取っていただける＋自由にハナウマ湾で遊べるこちらのプランを利用させていただきました。
英語のスピーキングに自信がなく不安でしたが、日本語での案内シートがありドライバーの方も私達の拙い英語の意味を汲み取ってくださり楽しくコミュニケーションが取れました。入場料金はドライバーさんが集め参加者の中にいた英語圏の方がまとめて支払ってくださいました。

初のシュノーケリングだったのでライフジャケットも借りました。早朝だと少し肌寒いくらいなのでライフジャケットが防寒になり、シュノーケリングの助けにもなり役立ちました。浅いところでもお魚が泳いでいてフムフムヌクヌクアプアアも見られました！
また機会があればお願いしたいと思います。
ありがとうございました。
