Oahu
We had such a wonderful time. Our guides were excellent and very knowledgeable. The ONLY complaint we had was the fact that the ATV’s could be a little cleaner other than that, it was a great experience.
On the day of the event, there was a storm, but it seemed they were going to proceed even in heavy rain. Since the kappa costume only covers the upper body, the lower half will get soaked down to your underwear, and your shoes will be drenched. It's better to bring a change of clothes.
当日はストームが来ていましたが、土砂降りの雨でも決行するようでした。河童は上半身だけなので、下は下着までずぶ濡れ靴はぐちょぐちょ着替えを持っていったほうがいいです。
There was a bit of cloudiness, but thanks to the captain and the curly-haired brother, I had a great time! I definitely want to participate again when I come to Hawaii next time!
少し曇りもありましたがキャプテンとチリチリ頭のお兄さんのおかげでとても楽しむことができました!
次回またハワイにきたら絶対参加したいです!
You can enjoy horseback riding while taking in the stunning views of the beach in Haleiwa. Each horse is well-trained and responds perfectly to commands. The view from atop the horse is fantastic. The instructor was cheerful and always attentive. It was also a nice touch that they provided photos taken during the ride. However, the time for exploring Haleiwa was short, and it was a bit disappointing that we only had enough time to eat.
ハレイワの海辺の絶景を眺めながら乗馬ができます。どの馬も慣れていて、きちんと指示通りに動いてくれます。馬上からの眺めは最高です。インストラクターの方は陽気で常に気をつかってくれました。道中撮った写真を配信してくれるのも嬉しいサービスです。ただ、ハレイワ散策の時間は短く、食事するだけでいっぱいなのはちょっと残念でした。
Since horseback riding is just a slow walk, advanced riders might find it unsatisfying.
乗馬はゆっくり歩くだけなので、上級者は物足りないかもしれません。
The biggest advantage is that it specializes in transportation, allowing you to focus on hiking at your own pace without unnecessary sightseeing guides or time constraints. The panoramic view from the summit is breathtaking, but the crowds due to its popularity are unavoidable. By using this shuttle, you can smoothly return to Waikiki after descending in the morning, making it a very practical option for those who want to make effective use of their time.
送迎に特化しているため、余計な観光案内や拘束時間がなく、自分のペースでハイキングに集中できる点が最大のメリットと言えます。
頂上からのパノラマビューは圧巻ですが、人気スポットゆえの混雑は避けられません。このシャトルを利用すれば下山後もスムーズにワイキキへ朝には戻れるため、時間を有効に活用したい方には非常に実用的な選択肢です。
The hospitable guides and Japanese staff provided various support, allowing us to enjoy driving the Raptor, fully experiencing nature, and listening to lectures about Hawaiian traditional culture, myths, and nature. Driving the Raptor is super easy even for women, and it's so much fun!
ホスピタリティあふれるガイドさんや日本人スタッフさんたちが色々とサポートしてくれるので、楽しくラプターを運転して、大自然を満喫して、ハワイの伝承文化や神話や自然についてのレクチャーを聞いたりできました。ラプターの運転は女性でも超簡単で、楽しすぎます。
The explanation videos in English are easier to understand than those in Japanese.
Be punctual.
There is time to take photos.
It's easier with a mask.
Please put tips in the container after fi

The tour time was neither too busy nor too leisurely; it was a good amount of time. The view from Diamond Head was very beautiful, and it was a great experience to participate.
ツアーの時間は忙しくもなく時間を持て余すわけでもない、いい時間でした。ダイアモンドヘッドからの景色はとても綺麗で参加していい体験でした。
I participated in the earliest time slot experience. On the way to Diamond Head in the shuttle, I saw many people running. Mornings in Hawaii start early! Whether you can see the sunrise or not, I highly recommend this experience for morning activities! The shuttle takes you to the ticket office, so it requires less stamina than climbing from the bottom. I did this experience on my first morning in Hawaii and established a rhythm for waking up early.
1番早い時間帯の体験に参加しました。
送迎車でダイヤモンドヘッドに向かう途中、ランニングしている人もたくさん見ます。ハワイの朝は早い!
日の出が見れても見れなくても、朝活にぜひおすすめの体験です!券売所まで送迎してくれるので、下から登るより体力は要りません。ハワイ初めての朝にこの体験をし、早起きのリズムをつくりました。
It's best to avoid arriving exactly at the pickup time. Both pickups and drop-offs tend to arrive early.
迎え時間ピッタリに向かうのは避けた方が良いです。迎えも、送りも、早めに来ます。
It's cold due to the wind and water, so make sure to bring extra towels and warm clothing like a hoodie. The boat will sway in the rough northern waves until you reach the spot, which is fun like a roller coaster, but… I did feel a bit seasick.
There are a lot of sharks in front of the cage, so you can see them from above. From inside the cage… it's a bit underwhelming. You can see them if you try hard enough, but it might not be suitable for girls or children.
You get tossed around by the waves and the cage, so it’s cold and painful. I think it’s fun, though!
風、水で寒いので、タオル多め、パーカーなど防寒着は必ず。
スポットに着くまでに船がノースの荒波に揺られるので、ジェットコースターみたいに楽しいけれど…やはり半分は酔ってました。
ケージの前にサメがたくさんいるので上から見れます。
ケージの中からは…微妙。
頑張れば見れるけど、女の子、子供とかは不向きかも。
波とケージに体をぶつけられるので、寒い、痛い。
楽しいのは楽しいと思う。
I get seasick.
It's cold, so wear warm clothing.
You can see sharks better at the aquarium.
船酔いはします。
寒いので防寒着を。
サメは水族館の方が見れる。
Thank you for the review and I am sorry that mother nature threw in some choppy conditions that day. Hopefully, we will see you on your next Hawaiian adventure during better conditions.
The crew was a kind and handsome pair of brothers. The boat was fast, and there were several thrilling moments that made my stomach drop. Parasailing was simply delightful! Once the harness was secured, we floated up, and my daughter exclaimed, "It feels just like Soarin'!" It truly was an extravagantly real Soarin' experience.
Before taking off, they checked if it was okay to get wet in the sea, and after I answered "OK," we were splashed down to our waists twice in a grand manner. The landing was also soft and well-executed.
After disembarking, you can decide whether to purchase the photos after checking the images on a PC. They also transferred the data directly to our smartphones and provided an SD card as well.
クルーは親切なイケメン兄弟でした。
船は速くて、胃が浮くようなスリリングな揺れが何度か。
パラセーリングは、ただただ気持ちよかったです!ハーネスをつなぐとスーッと浮き上がって、娘が、ソアリンみたいー!と叫んでいて、確かに贅沢すぎるリアルソアリンでした。
飛ぶ前に海に浸かって大丈夫か確認があり、OKと答えたら、豪快に2回腰まで浸かりました。着地もフワッと上手でした。
写真は下船後、PCで画像を確認してから購入するか決められます。データはその場でスマホに落として、SDカードでも渡してくれました。
Luggage and sandals can be stored under the seat. Tips and photo fees could be paid by card.
荷物とサンダルは、座席の下に入れられます。
チップと写真代は、カードで支払いできました。
Friendly staff, great time!!
Aloha Beth,
Thank you for your 5-star review with your nice pictures! We are looking forward to seeing you again soon.
Mahalo,
Team KBOS
First off the driver, Matthew was great, I couldn't find the pick up spot and he called me and got me there. My fault, I get lost crossing the street. It was rainy, but the place was packed for the 6:15 am trip. 2vhours is more than enough to hike to the top and take pictures along the way. Thank you for a wonderful experience!
運良く、天候に恵まれて楽しむことができました。英語ができた方が意思が伝えられるので良いです。着地では少し水に濡れてOKと伝えて、楽しむことができました。
船がけっこう揺れました。酔い止めが必要かも知れません。
On the last day in Hawaii, I was looking for an easy activity that I could do in a limited amount of time, and I found availability here. Despite making a reservation on the morning of the same day, the process went very smoothly, which was great. The reception location was a bit hard to find, but there was a van with the company name on it as a landmark. There were two young women at the reception (one of whom was fluent in Japanese), and the crew consisted of two young men who spoke English, but there were no communication issues. The ride to the spot felt like a fast cruise, which was enjoyable in itself. I had some slight anxiety about how the landing would go during the parasailing, but it was operated very skillfully, and I naturally landed behind the boat. It was a truly valuable experience.
ハワイの最終日を前に、なにか手軽に限られた時間でできるアクティビティがないかと探していたところ、こちらに空きがありました。当日の午前中に予約したにもかかわらず、大変スムーズに手続ができ良かったです。受付場所はややわかりにくかったですが、社名の入ったバンが止まっているのが目印です。受付は若い女性2名(1名は日本語堪能)、クルーは若い男性2名で英語でしたが、コミュニケーションに問題はなかったです。スポットに着くまでは高速でのクルーズという感じでそれ自体が楽しかった。パラセイリングも、着地する際はどうするのかななど若干不安がありましたが、非常に上手に操作されて、自然とボートの後ろに着陸するようになってました。大変貴重な体験ができました。
On the day of the event, I was worried because the wind was strong, but it seems that the staff's response was good, and my daughters had a great time. Unfortunately, even after taking motion sickness medication, I still got sick, which was disappointing. I can't help my condition, though...💦
当日は風が強く、大丈夫かなって不安はありましたが、スタッフの方の対応も良くかったみたいで娘たちは楽しい時間を過ごしました。酔い止めを飲んでも酔ってしまったので、そこが残念でした。体調はしょうがないのですが…💦
Motion sickness medication is essential.
酔い止め必須。
Luau was awesome, and the shuttle to the luau is so convenient!
Lots to see and taste, really good evening of Hawaiian culture!
Our favorite way to end of trip in Hawaii is at Mauka Luau, I love the new location!
Listen to when people tell you to go for the ATV tour, what a perfect way to see Kualoa!
Really wonderful to upgrade to this awesome dinner schedule
These horses are treated with love you can tell! They were very calm during our ride.
Not only do you get a great show you get a great laugh throughout - perfect balance!
The dancers and team are so talented, what an amazing show they pull off!
My kids loved all the pre-show fun they have included, and the food was actually pretty stinking good!
Sunset views from the deck were absolutely stunning, and the buffet had a great variety of delish foods!
Overall a fun night out with great food, beautiful scenery, and an unforgettable show.
This tour was awesome - the waterfall is breathtaking and I loved being able to take my time, enjoy the scenery, and snap great photos along the way
On top of the ATV part, I enjoyed learning more about the land and local agriculture.
Instructor was extremely patient as well as encouraging which definitely made me feel completely comfortable as a beginner
Aloha ʻo Kara,
We are so glad to hear that you had a great time during your Private Surf Lesson. That you felt comfortable, safe, and encouraged by our team! Our teams first priority is your sense of safety and comfortability, and we are so happy to hear that is what you felt. We hope to see you back on the water with us soon!
Mahalo Nui
It was great, it's just that the ocean wasn't cooperating that day but the crew and ride were very good. If the waves were bigger it would have been awesome.
Aloha,
Mahalo for sharing your feedback and for joining us on the water. We’re truly pleased to hear that you enjoyed our crew and the overall ride experience.
As much as we would love to curate perfect conditions every day, weather and ocean patterns are entirely out of our control. Conditions can shift quickly and are guided solely by nature. For this reason, our experienced watermen carefully evaluate the environment prior to each departure to ensure that safety always remains the highest priority.
While we cannot influence the elements, we remain deeply committed to delivering a safe, professional, and memorable experience through the service and care of our team. We would be grateful if you might reconsider your rating based on the service and hospitality provided by our crew, rather than the natural conditions that were beyond our control.
We sincerely appreciate your time and hope to welcome you back again soon.
