Fabulous guides! A lovely informative bunch of girls.
The only place you can do solo ATV's now on Oahu!
A lot of fun!

I wish I had done this tour earlier into my trip. We got to see the entire island. It was clear that our guide, Kevin was passionate and knowledgeable on the island's history and culture. Our group made a few stops additional to the two main activities. It was well worth the cost. As a solo traveller I had an amazing time on this excursion!

A two-hour horseback riding experience. After arriving at Kualoa, a Japanese speaker will provide an explanation. The riding will be conducted in English. You can check your luggage, but you can take your smartphone and water bottle with you. Only photos are allowed; videos are not permitted. You need to take photos with one hand. The horses are smart and will move in sync with the horse in front of them. This is an experience you should definitely try when you come to Hawaii.

2時間ほどの乗馬体験。クアロア到着後日本語の方あらご説明していただけます。
乗馬中は英語で行われます。荷物は預けますが、スマホと水筒は持って行けます。
写真のみで動画はダメです。写真は片手でとる必要があります。
馬ちゃんは賢いので前の馬に合わせて動いてくれます。
ハワイに来たらぜひ体験して欲しい。

My two children, an elementary school student and a high school student, said this was the most fun trip they've ever had. You can buy data with an SD card, so it might not be necessary to bring a smartphone. Cash is a must since you'll need to give a tip at the end.

小学生、高校生の子供2人が今回の旅行で一番楽しかったと言ってくれました。
SDカードでデータを買えるのでスマホは持参しなくても良いかも？終了時にチップを渡すのでCASHはマストです。

We are a couple aged 65 and 64. We came to Hawaii for a vacation after retirement. My wife, who has a fear of heights, was reluctant, but we decided to participate as a memorable experience. At first, she was very scared, but as she got used to it, she was able to look down and enjoy the amazing views. The staff was polite and provided good instruction with a sense of humor, and I think the pilot was skilled as well. It was fantastic.

65歳と64歳の夫婦です。
定年退職で有給休暇のためハワイに来ました。高所恐怖症の妻は嫌がったのですが、記念にと思い参加しました。最初は怖い怖いと言っていた妻も慣れると下も見れるようになり最高な景色を眺められました。スタッフも丁寧に教えてくれてユーモアもあり、操縦士の人もうまかったと思います。
最高でした。

I participated with two friends! I was a bit anxious since I don't drive much, but I was able to drive without any problems! (They show a driving explanation video in Japanese.) The explanation on-site is in English, but the staff were very kind, taking photos for us and really caring about us, who are Japanese and don't speak much English! We enjoyed the beautiful scenery of the greenery, the sea seen from the mountains, and the cute animals, making it enjoyable even for those who aren't movie fans!

あまり車を運転しないので不安でしたが問題なく運転できました！（運転の説明は日本語ビデオを見せてくれます）
現地での説明は英語ですが、スタッフの人はとっても親切で写真を撮ってくれたり英語を話せない日本人の私たちのことをすごく気にかけてくださりました！
緑も山から見る海もかわいい動物達も最高の景色を堪能でき、映画ファンじゃなくても楽しめます♪

I participated with two friends! For someone like me who can't surf, it was my first experience riding the waves, and it was amazing! It was fun to be seen and waved at by various people, which was quite unique. I can only speak Japanese, but there were no issues as they gave instructions in simple English! I highly recommend it!

サーフィンできない私にとっては波に乗るという体験が初めてだったので、最高でした！
珍しかったのか色んな人から見られたり、手を振られたりして、それも含め楽しかったです。
日本語しか話せませんが、簡単な英語で指示出ししてくれるので問題ありませんでした！
おすすめです！

I participated with two friends! The staff were kind and funny, and there were various participants, including couples and families, but we all had a great time on the boat♪ The parasailing was of course amazing, and the boat bouncing on the waves was thrilling and fun. I only speak Japanese, but that was not a problem at all!

スタッフの皆さんは優しくそして面白く、カップルの方、家族で参加してる方など様々でしたが、船の上でとても盛り上がりました♪
パラセーリングはもちろん、船が波で跳ねるのもスリリングで楽しかったです。
日本語しか話せませんが問題なしでした！

I am a 60-year-old woman, and I was able to experience this with peace of mind. The Japanese guide, Sanae, kindly gave me advice. Thank you very much.

60才の女性ですが、安心して体験できました。日本人ガイドのさなえさんが優しくアドバイスをくださいました。ありがとうございました。

The Angel Sea was very beautiful. Thanks to the thorough explanation and practice time for snorkeling, I was able to swim to my heart's content during the actual event. Fortunately, a sea turtle that had been resting in a coral cave came out, and I was able to swim with it.

天使の海とても綺麗でした
シュノーケルの丁寧な説明や練習時間のおかげで本番思う存分泳げました
ラッキーなことに珊瑚の洞穴で寝ていた海亀が出てきてくれて一緒に泳ぐこともできました

First-time parasailing
The reason we chose this one among many options is that it departs conveniently right in front of the Hilton Lagoon where we were staying, and we wanted to experience Hawaii by viewing Waikiki Beach, the city, and Diamond Head from the sky.

We were the only Japanese people there, but the explanations mixed with Japanese were well done, so we didn't feel anxious. Contrary to my expectations of being scared of heights or not being able to open my eyes due to strong winds, it was calm up there, and the three of us were able to have a normal conversation at a regular volume.
I was impressed by the beautiful sea of Waikiki and the stunning mountain scenery, which exceeded my expectations. I absolutely hate roller coasters, but I enjoyed every moment of those two hours.

はじめてのパラセーリング
数ある中でこちらを選んだのは、
宿泊のヒルトンのラグーンのすぐ前からの出航で便利なこと、そしてワイキキビーチや街・ダイヤモンドヘッドを空から眺めてハワイを実感したいことが理由です

日本人は私たちだけでしたが、日本語まじりの説明も上手くて不安は感じませんでした
高いところは怖いかなぁ風が強くて目が開けられないかもなどという予想に反して、上空は静かで三人で普通の音量で会話が出来ました
期待以上のワイキキの美しい海と山の美しい景色に感激です　
ジェットコースターなど大嫌いですが、そんな自分も終始楽しさしかなかった2時間でした

I was able to come to the movie filming location that I really wanted to visit with my son. It was my first experience driving a four-wheeler and using a left-hand drive. The size of the mountains and the vastness and blueness of the sky were so impressive, and it really boosted my excitement. The two instructors were very helpful, so we had a great time. I am very grateful.

私がとっても行きたかった映画ロケ地に息子と来れました。四輪バギー運転も左利きハンドルも初体験
間近に見える山の大きさ空の広さに青さ、とってもテンションが上がりました。インストラクターのお二人が丁寧に助けてくださったので、楽しく過ごせました。感謝しております。

I had given up on making a reservation through the official booking site, but then I found this tour and signed up. Since I didn't have a rental car, it was really helpful that they provided transportation to the hotel. The rental equipment was properly arranged, and the driver was a fun person, which was great.

公式予約サイトで予約が取れなかったので諦めていたところ、こちらのツアーを見つけて申し込みました。
レンタカーしていなかったので、ホテルに送迎してもらえて本当に助かりました。
レンタル道具もキチンとあり、ドライバーさんも楽しい方で良かったです。

At first, I struggled with snorkeling, but gradually I got used to it and was able to calmly enjoy the beautiful sea. I was able to see dolphins and sea turtles, and at the end, I even saw a mother whale and her calf from the boat, which was incredibly exciting! The staff were bright and friendly, making the tour a lot of fun! I want to come back after preparing for seasickness!

最初シュノーケリングに苦戦しましたが、徐々に慣れて綺麗な海を落ち着いて見ることが出来ました。
イルカやウミガメを見ることができ、最後に船から鯨の親子も見ることができて大興奮でした！
スタッフの皆さんは明るくフレンドリーで楽しくツアーを満喫できました！
船酔い対策してまた来たいです！

Two children, a high school student and a university student, participated in the experience. I also went to the reception to sign the consent form. When I mentioned that I wouldn't be riding the boat, I was allowed to wait in the nearby tour company's van. The air conditioning wasn't working.

The high school student, who is not fond of roller coasters, said that the boat ride was scarier than parasailing. The university student, who enjoys roller coasters, had a great time. They took motion sickness medication beforehand and reported that they didn't feel sick at all.

I purchased photo data for $40, and they also gave me an SD card.

高校生と大学生の子供２人が体験。同意書サインのため私も受付まで行きました。私はボートにも乗らないと言ったら、近くに置いてある催行会社のバンの中で待たせてもらえました。クーラーは効いてません。
ジェットコースターが苦手な高校生はパラセーリングよりもボートの移動のほうが怖かったそうです。
ジェットコースターが得意な大学生は満喫していました。
酔い止めを服用していき、全く酔わなかったそうです。
40ドルで写真データをかいました。SDカードもくれました。

This tour came highly recommended by a friend, and I can see why! Was our favourite part of our trip to Hawaii, and we hope to visit again soon.

I drove a buggy for about two and a half hours on various courses such as mountain paths, forest roads, and gravel roads in the North Shore! I had been to the North Shore several times, but I was very satisfied to see scenery I had never seen before! We stopped several times to switch drivers and take photos. The guide took the pictures for us. There were several intense courses that were thrilling and fun! My face and clothes got covered in dust! (laughs) After the buggy ride, there is a water source where you can wash your face! They provide sunglasses at the beginning, but just wearing sunglasses can let dust get into your eyes while driving, so I think it's a good idea to use goggles or something similar for protection. The guide didn't speak Japanese, but he explained everything slowly and kindly, and he was a very nice person! It was a really enjoyable experience! ^_^

ノースショアの山道、林道、砂利道など様々なコースを2時間半程度かけてバギーで走りました！
ノースショアには何度か来ていましたが、見たことのない景色を見ることができて大満足です！途中何度か運転交代や、写真撮影のために停車します。写真はガイドさんが撮ってくださいました。
激しいコースが何度かあり、スリル満点で楽しかったです！
顔や服は砂埃で土まみれになります！笑
バギー終了後に、水道があるのでそこで顔洗えます！
最初にサングラスが配られますが、サングラスだけでは走ってる最中に目に砂埃が入ってきて痛いのでゴーグルなどで対策すると良いと思います。
ガイドさんは日本語話せませんが、ゆっくり丁寧に説明してくださりとても優しい方でした！
とても楽しい体験になりました^_^

The wind felt nice, and the sea was incredibly beautiful, but the main dolphin watching only allowed us to see them small and far away. The canoe group from another tour got much closer to them. I was really looking forward to it, so it was a bit disappointing. The time spent watching dolphins was short, and most of the time was spent snorkeling, but since we were swimming in deep water, there were hardly any fish, so it felt like there was no need to go on the tour just to swim.

The staff were very cheerful and wonderful, and the final "Harasho" was fun. However, I ordered some products from a Japanese staff member on the bus, but when I realized I hadn’t received them after getting on the boat, I informed them. They told me to wait a bit because it was shooting time, and when it seemed like they weren't in a hurry to get it, they later asked how I would like to pay. I was like, "Well, I already bought it..." The impression I got was that the Japanese staff were kind to those who ordered commemorative photos, but not so much otherwise.

風は気持ち良かったし、海ももっても綺麗でしたが、メインのイルカウォッチングは遠くに小さく見えるだけ、別のツアーのカヌーの方達はとっても近くまで行っていました。
楽しみにして行ったので、少し残念でした。
イルカを見る時間も短く、ほとんどの時間がシュノーケリングでしたが、深いところで泳ぐので、魚もほとんどいなくて、わざわざツアーで泳ぐ必要はなかったなといった感じでした。

スタッフの皆さんはとっても明るくて素敵で、最後のハラショーも楽しかったです。
ただ、バスで日本人スタッフの方に商品を注文したのですが、船にのってから受け取るはずがもらっていないことに途中で気づいて伝えると、撮影時間だということもありちょっと待ってくださいといわれ、急いで撮りに行く気配がないとおもったら、ひと段落ついてからお支払いはどうしますか？と、
いやもう買ってますけど、、となりました。
日本人スタッフの方は、記念撮影を注文した方には親切だけど、、という印象でした

I did 120 meters.
Even a third grader could enjoy it! (It's not a problem if you're not afraid of heights. There’s hardly any swaying.)
They also took photos for us, which became a family keepsake!

120メートルをしました。
小学生3年生でも楽しむことが出来ました！（高いところが怖くなければ問題ありません。ほとんど揺れもありません）
カメラも撮って頂き、家族の記念になりました！

I participated with my 4 and 6-year-old children. I was worried they might not enjoy it since they are so young, but they seemed to have a great time seeing lots of dolphins and riding on a boat that we usually don't get to ride on! They were especially excited about the tattoo stickers they got at the end, which they had been looking forward to even before we went! They lasted for three days even after taking a bath, so it was a bit challenging to remove them (laughs).

As for snorkeling, it seemed difficult for them to breathe through the snorkel, so they quickly came back up from the water. I think I would like to try that again when they are older! They ended up going down the slide by themselves, and they had so much fun that they went down three times! (laughs) Also, they loved the lemonade they could drink on the boat, and since returning home, they've started drinking lemonade regularly!

The crew members were very kind, and we had a truly wonderful experience. Thank you!

4歳6歳の子どもと一緒に参加させていただきました。
子どもたちが小さかったので楽しめるか心配でしたがたくさんのイルカがみれたり、普段乗ることのない船に乗ったりととても楽しかったようです！
特に最後に貼ってもらえるタトゥーシールは行く前から楽しみにしてたのもありすごく喜んでました！！
お風呂に入っても3日は余裕でもってたので剥がすとき少し大変でした（笑）

肝心のシュノーケリングはシュノーケルをつけて口呼吸するということが難しかったようで一瞬で海からあがりました。
これはまた大きくなったら再チャレンジしたいなと思います！
なのでスライダーは自分ひとりで滑ることになりましたがとっても楽しく3回も滑りました！笑
あと子どもたちが船で飲めるレモネードを気に入って帰国してからもレモネード飲むようになりました！

クルーのみなさんもとても優しく本当にいい体験をさせていただきました。
ありがとうございました！

I really enjoyed looking at the ocean in Hawaii from a high platform, as well as walking through the grasslands and forests. It's reassuring that explanations are provided in Japanese through the video. Since there is little shade, sun protection is necessary. Also, since it's just a matter of walking at a steady pace, it might be quite painful for advanced riders.

ハワイの海を高い台から眺めたり、草原や林を抜けたり、とても楽しめました。説明は日本語で動画を見せてもらえますので安心です。
日陰が少ないので、日焼け対策は必要です。
また、ひたすら並足で歩くだけですので、乗馬上級者の方にはかなり苦痛かもしれません。

I've been to Hawaii many times, but this was my first visit to Kualoa Ranch. The tour of famous movie filming locations was enjoyable, but the scenery was absolutely stunning. I thoroughly enjoyed the beautiful ocean, mountains, and nature. I especially want to highlight the buffet-style lunch. It even included delicious cookies, and I was very satisfied. I want to go again.

ハワイには何度も行ってますが、クアロア・ランチには一度も行った事がなく、初めての参加でした。有名な映画のロケ地めぐりも楽しかったのですが、何しろ景色がとても良いです。キレイな海と山、大自然を満喫しました。特筆したいのはブュッフェスタイルのランチです。美味しいクッキーまであって大満足でした。また行きたいです。

The weather was great on the day of the trip. It seems that the mountains can sometimes experience rain compared to the town, but we had clear skies throughout the entire journey! (Though the water volume was a bit low...)

Climbing up and down was excellent exercise!

The lunch sandwiches were exquisite! And the view of the town from Tantalus Lookout was amazing! The guide was also very kind, and if I have the chance, I would like to consider participating in other programs offered by the same company!

当日は天気が良く恵まれました。山は町に比べて雨が降ることがあるらしく、全行程快晴！（その分水量がちょっと少ない…）

登って降りて、とても良い運動になります！

ランチのサンドイッチも絶品！　そしてタンタラスの丘からの町の景色は最高でした！
ガイドさんも親切で、機会があれば同社のほかのプログラムも参加検討したいです！

This is my third time. I always participate in the program where I can touch dolphins, but this time I stayed by the poolside (the previous two times I went into the pool).

I got to see the dolphins. Since I was by the poolside, I didn't need to change clothes, which was convenient.

I would love to go again if I have the chance! (The garlic shrimp was delicious.)

今回は3回目。いつもイルカに触れるプログラムに参加していますが、今回はプールサイドから（過去2回はプールの中に入るもの）。

会えました、イルカ。プールサイドからなので着替えは要らないし楽でした。

また機会があれば行きたい！
（ガーリックシュリンプ美味しかった）

Our group of nine people from four years old to 70 years old had the most fantastic time on Tuesday, February 25 on the PM trip. The captain and crew were so much fun and knowledgeable, and it was clear. They absolutely loved their job. The music, the location the amenities was far superior to any other snorkel adventure on Oahu. I can’t recommend them enough. There were no other boats, besides ours out there and being able to stand up on the Sandbar in the crystal blue waters made all the difference.
This was absolutely worth the money and included lunch and live music and this is the spot to reserve. Thank you thank you.

I chose to experience three activities, and they were all fun.

Parasailing was surprisingly stable, and the boat we were waiting on was actually rocking more. Since we were surrounded by the ocean, I didn't feel much height, so I think even those with a bit of acrophobia can do it without any problems. Also, the staff spoke Japanese well, so I believe those who can't speak English can enjoy the experience without any issues.

For jet skiing, the course is triangular and fixed for safety, and you have to pay extra to ride solo, which means there’s a speed limiter. If you're an experienced jet skier, you might find it a bit lacking. However, I think beginners can enjoy it safely.

The banana boat was just as I imagined and was a lot of fun. You can choose between two types of banana boats. If you like something more intense, I recommend choosing the one that’s not the typical banana boat.

It's not cheap, but since you can experience all three activities at the same time, I think it's very cost-effective.

3種目体験を選択しましたがどれも楽しかったです。

パラセーリングはびっくりするほど安定していて順番待ちしていた時の船の方が揺れていました。周りが海ということもありあまり高さを感じず多少高所恐怖症の人でも全然問題なくできると思います。
また、スタッフさん達も日本語が上手で英語話せない人でも問題なく体験できると思います。

ジェットスキーは安全のためコースが三角で固定で課金して1人乗りにしないとスピードのリミッターもあり、ジェットスキー経験者だと少し物足りない気がします。
ですが初心者の人ならば安心して体験出来ると思います。

バナナボートは想像通りで楽しかったです。
バナナボートは2種類から選べます。激しいのが好きな人はよくあるバナナボートじゃない方を選ぶといいと思います。

安くはないですが同時に3つも体験出来るのでとてもコスパはいいと思います。

We celebrated my birthday on this sunset cruise. It was a well organized event. Wonderful entertainment and the food was excellent. Our table was on the side of stage so we did not have the best view for picture taking. So much fun, beautiful views, I highly recommend.

The reception staff were kind and attentive, and they worked efficiently! Onboard, a cheerful guide entertained us with jokes and took plenty of photos, creating wonderful memories.

受付の方も親切丁寧で仕事テキパキ!
船上では陽気なガイドのおじさまがギャグ等交えて盛り上げて下さり写真も沢山とってくださり良い思い出になりました。

I made a last-minute reservation, but I'm glad I participated! I could feel the great nature of Hawaii, and driving the buggy was really thrilling! The explanations were all in English, with no Japanese at all, so please do your best to understand!

ギリギリで予約しましたが、参加してよかったです！
ハワイの大自然を感じられ、バギーの運転で迫力もマシマシでした！
説明は全部英語で日本語は少しもないので、聞き取るの頑張ってください！

I'm not good with thrill rides, so I was a bit scared before starting parasailing, but it was more stable than I imagined, and I was able to enjoy the scenery. I was very satisfied that I could take pictures of the view with a smartphone case that I hung around my neck, which I bought at a 100 yen shop. There is a sort of effect where you get splashed with water when you come down, so I think it's better to wear a swimsuit underneath. If you don't want to get wet, they will accommodate your request.

絶叫系が苦手なのでパラセーリングも始まる前までは少し怖かったのですが、想像以上に安定感があり景色を楽しむことができました。100均などに売っているスマホケースを首からかけて景色も撮影することができて大満足でした。降りる時に水に浸かる演出のようなものがあるので水着を下に着て行く方がいいかと思います。水につけないでほしいと言えば対応はしてくれます。
