Staff charged me the memory card without asking if I ever need them.
I have no use for such huge memory stick; that was age old technology.

Overall, it was fun granted it was my virgin experience.
would I recommend my friends?
Probably no.

During my stay in Waikiki, this was the most exciting activity nearby. Even those who are not good at surfing can ride the waves and experience the thrill. I recommend trying this canoe surfing before parasailing or jet skiing.

ワイキキ滞在の中で、最も近場で、最もエキサイティングなアクティビティです。
サーフィンが苦手な人も、波に乗り、爽快感を味わうことができます。
パラセーリング、ジェットスキーよりも、まずこのカヌーサーフィンをオススメします。

I was glad to receive such polite guidance! I was a bit anxious since it was my first time, but there were no problems at all! The friendly atmosphere was also great!

丁寧に教えていただけて良かったです！
初めてなんで少し不安でしたが何の問題も買ったです！
和気あいあいとした雰囲気も良かったです！

It was a very satisfying experience.
The explanations in Japanese were easy to understand.
There was also a great consideration for safety.

The hamburger for lunch was delicious.

とても満足度できる体験でした。
日本語でわかりやすい説明。
安全に対する配慮も行き届いています。

お昼のハンバーガーも美味しかったです。

Bernard was a wonderful guide. Very informative. Wish it was a bit longer.

It became a wonderful memory of Hawaii that will remain in both my memory and records, both the stars and the sunrise. Next time, I want to participate again with my family.

星、日の出共に記憶にも記録にも残るハワイでの素晴らしい思い出になりました。次は家族でまた参加したいです。

The weather was nice, the sea was beautiful, and it was an obviously enjoyable tour, but I was especially impressed by the hospitality of the boat staff team. The hamburgers on board were also delicious. Thank you very much.

天気も良く、海も綺麗で、当たり前に楽しいツアーでしたが、とにかくボートのスタッフさんチームのホスピタリティーに感激しました。船上のハンバーガーも美味しかったです。有難うございました。

Only Japanese people. Front row seats.
I was a bit nervous because everything was in English, but surprisingly I could understand it.
The magician was Japanese and performed in both English and Japanese, which made it easy to follow.
I never expected to perform together in the front, and it was a great experience.

日本人は我々のみ。一番前の席。
すべて英語で若干焦ったけど案外聞き取れました。
マジシャンが日本人で英語と日本語で演じてくれてわかりやすかった。
まさか前で一緒に演じるとは思わず、よい体験でした。

We visited Hawaii for our honeymoon and tried parasailing for the first time. I was nervous until we took off because I'm not great with the feeling of floating, but once we were up in the air, it felt amazing and the view was beautiful—it was the best! The local instructor was very cheerful and bright, and even though all five groups on the same boat were Japanese, everyone was able to communicate and have fun with the instructor.

The airtime was less than 10 minutes, but both my husband and I were very satisfied. If you're hesitating, I definitely recommend giving it a try! I will definitely do it again when I go back to Hawaii!

新婚旅行でハワイに訪れ、初めてのパラセーリングに挑戦してみました。私は浮遊感が苦手なので、飛び始めるまで緊張してましたが、いざ上空に行くととーーーっても気持ちがよく景色も綺麗で最高でした。インストラクターの現地の方もとても陽気で明るく、同じボートに乗った5組全員日本人でしたが、みんながみんな楽しくインストラクターの方とコミュニケーションを取れていました。
滞空時間は10分未満でしたが、それでも私も旦那さんも大満足でした。
迷っていたら是非体験することをおすすめします！
またハワイに行ったら必ずやります！

I had an amazing time! Everyone on the staff was great! We rode a banana boat, and the local guide took us to a spot where we could see sea turtles! The snorkeling was beautiful too, as the fish gathered when we scattered food! And the ocean was just stunning! My daughters, who are 8 and 6 years old, are already saying they want to go back.

めちゃくちゃ楽しめました！スタッフみんなが良い人！バナナボートに乗りましたが、牽引してくれる現地の方が海亀のいるところに連れて行ってくれました！シュノーケリングも餌をまくと魚が集まって来て綺麗でした！そしてとにかく海が綺麗！8歳と歳6歳の娘達もまた行きたいと言っています。

I went parasailing with my grandchild this time. The staff was friendly, and I felt safe doing it! My grandchild is saying they want to do it again.

孫と一緒にパラセーリングを今回しました。
Staffは親切で安心して出来ました！
孫もまたやりたいと言ってます。

The blue sky and the incredibly clear water. The staff's music added to the excitement of the Hawaii trip. Additionally, there are various activities available, so you can either be fully active or take it easy and relax.

青空と最高に澄み切った水。
スタッフさんの音楽がまたHAWAII旅をさらに盛り上げてくれました。また、いろいろなアクティビティがあるのでフルに動くもよし、休憩しながゆっくり過すのもいいと思います。

Clear guidance of the whole tour, helpful crew and they are passionate about making your tour pleasant. Definitely suggesting all to have this tour

The experience of moving while listening to live Hawaiian music on the boat was amazing! I chose this plan to do SAP in the heavenly sea, and we were able to do SAP, snorkeling, and kayaking all in turns! Before we played, the staff always taught us how to do it. The staff were from overseas, but most of them spoke Japanese well, which was a great help! Since the playtime was long, I think it would be nice to take photos while waiting. In reviews of other tours, there were mentions of photo purchases being charged, but here there was none of that; in fact, the staff took pictures with our own phones, so I definitely recommend bringing a waterproof case for your phone! Even if you hang your phone around your neck to keep it dry, there’s a chance you might flip over in SAP and fall into the sea headfirst, so if it's not waterproof, your phone could be in trouble. I was worried because of reviews saying the boat was cold, and indeed, when I returned to the boat soaked from snorkeling, it felt so cold that my lips were numb. The drinks on the boat were only cold ones. So, after enjoying SAP at the end and warming up in the sun before returning to the boat, I felt much better about the cold. There were participants from various countries, and people of all ages, from small children to the elderly, and everyone seemed to be having fun. If you want to feel Hawaii, I recommend this plan! 😊

ハワイアンミュージックの生演奏を船上で聴きながらの移動が最高でした！天国の海でSAPが出来るプランを探してこちらを選びましたが、交代でSAPもシュノーケリングもカヤックも全て出来ました！遊ぶ前に必ずスタッフがやり方を教えてくれます。スタッフは海外の方ですが、ほとんどの方が日本語上手で助かりました！遊べる時間も長いので、待っている間に写真撮影などすれば良いと思います。他のツアーの口コミでは、写真の購入が有料だったなどありますが、こちらは一切そういうのは無く、なんならスタッフが自分たちの携帯で撮影してくれるので、必ず防水ケースに入った携帯を持参することをオススメします！首から濡れないように携帯を下げていたとしても、SAPでひっくり返って頭から海に落ちる事もあるので、防水じゃないと携帯がやばいことになります。船内が寒いとの口コミがあり不安でしたが、確かにシュノーケリングをして全身濡れた状態で船内に戻ると、口が悴むほど寒く感じました。船内のドリンクは冷たいのしか無いですし。なので、最後にSAPを楽しみながら身体を太陽で温めてから船内に戻ると、だいぶ寒さはマシに感じました。参加者にはいろいろな国の方がいて、年齢も小さな子からお年寄りの方がいて、みんな楽しんでいるようでした。ハワイを感じたい方は、こちらのプランがオススメです＾＾

I learned a lot about the plants on the way to Manoa Falls from our guide, Tomomi. The scenery along the path was absolutely wonderful. The view from the hill where we had lunch was also fantastic.

ガイドのトモミさんにマノアの滝までの植物についていろいろ教えてもらいました。道の途中にある景色もとっても素晴らしかったです。昼食をとった丘からの眺めもとっても素晴らしかったです。

My family and I really enjoyed the sandbar trip with Kaneohe Bay Ocean Sports. They provided all of the needed sporting equipment (paddle boards, kayaks, snorkels, life vests). The paddle boarding was challenging and fun. Seeing the tropical fish and the coral reef were for me the best experience of the trip. The half day trip was the perfect amount of time on the sandbar. I also appreciated the free donuts and fruit juice (beer for purchase), and the live entertainment. My wife remained in the enclosed boat. Though the musicians didn't perform while at the sandbar, she enjoyed the relaxing views of the bay.

The crew were very professional, courteous helpful, the food was great , hit the spot , felt safe on the boat and while in the water.
Highly recommended it.

Absolutely amazing scenery with funny, smart and attentive guides. Wonderful activity to do with the whole family. Our older twenty-something children had a blast! Would recommend for people who want to get a little dirty and see Hawaii!!! Don’t miss this!

The buggy activity was thrilling, and the course was filled with breathtaking spots in both the mountains and the sea, making it absolutely fantastic. With a solid two hours of riding, I felt very satisfied.

When I checked in on-site, I found that it was fine to arrive at the buggy check-in location 15 minutes before. Since there was some time before we started, I was able to play on the beach across the road, dipping my feet in the water and building sandcastles.

The return bus also arrived about 10 minutes early, and it felt like the roll call was starting.

バギーのアクティビティ感はスリルがあり、周るコースが山も海も絶景スポットがいっぱいで最高でした。2時間みっちり周るので、かなり満足感はあります。
現地で確認すると、チェックインは15分前にバギーのチェックイン場所に行けばオッケーでした。始まるまで時間があったので、道路を挟んで向かいのビーチで足をつけたり砂山を作ったりして遊べました。
帰りのバスも10分前くらいにバスがきて点呼が始まる感じでした。

Even though I don't understand English, the staff explained everything clearly with gestures. My younger child and I are a bit timid, so it felt like half fun and half scary. My wife and older child seemed to have a great time. There were about 10 customers during my experience, and each session lasted around 10 minutes, with two people experiencing it at a time. So we were on the boat for about an hour, and my family felt a little queasy.

英語がわからかなくても、スタッフの方がジェスチャーを混じえてしっかり説明してくれました。私と下の子は怖がりなので、楽しい半分怖さ半分と言う感じでした。妻と上の子はめちゃくちゃ楽しかったようです。私のときは10人のお客さんがいて、1回の体験がだいたい10分くらいで、2人ずつ順番に体験します。なので1時間くらいはボートに揺られ、うちの家族はみんな少し気持ち悪いかなくらいでした。

November in Hawaii is the rainy season, and my reservation was canceled just before the start date. I received an email saying to call the English-only reception, so if the weather looks suspicious, it's better to change your reservation on the website in advance. The day after I rescheduled, I flew through a rainy sky and saw a rainbow at my feet. I didn't have the luxury to take leisurely photos, but my feelings were: scary! Beautiful! Amazing! Quiet!

Luggage is stored in the space under the seat on the boat. A few times, I was splashed up to my waist or chest. If your hotel is nearby, you can return there afterward, but if it's far, there aren't many places to change (maybe just a public restroom on the beach after a bit of walking), so be careful about getting wet.

11月のハワイは雨季なのもあら予約日は開始直前で開催中止になりました。
英語のみの受付に電話する様にメールが来るので、天気が怪しい場合は先にサイトから予約変更するといいです。
振り替えた翌日はお天気雨の中飛んで、足元に虹が見えました。
ノンビリ写真を撮ってる余裕なんて無かったですが、怖い！綺麗！スゴい！静か！という感想です。

荷物は船の座席下のスペースに置いて飛びます。
海面には何度か腰下〜胸元くらいまでは落とされビシャビシャになります。
ホテルが近いなら終わった後にホテルに戻ればいいですが、ホテルが遠いと着替える場所とかはないので(あってもしばらく歩いたビーチの公衆トイレくらい)濡れたままでどうしよう…となるので気を付けてください。

My family has been in Hawaii for a week, and one of the last things we had to do was take a boat tour to Kaneohe sandbar. It came very highly recommended to us, so I found this tour and booked it! Mannnnn, this was THE SINGLE BEST thing we did all week. The boat crew was amazing. Captain Calvin was stellar, along with the whole entire crew. We were so impressed with how much fun we had! The weather was perfect for snorkeling, the kids had the best time being whipped around the ocean on the banana boat, the food was good, the music was amazing! Everything was just perfect. I didn’t want to get off the boat. Cannot lie, the Hawaiian people are the best people. Their kindness is unmatched. We had a great time. Thank you to everyone who made our boating experience amazing.

Loved the crew. My fourth time, my children’s second time and my son’s girlfriend’s first time. Swimming by and with turtles. Like heaven y set water with the fish. Next time I am in Hawaii, will return! Thank you

Since I started going to Hawaii, this must be my seventh or eighth time experiencing the sandbar, and the staff provided excellent safety management and support. I am truly grateful. Thank you very much.

ハワイに行き始めてから、何度目になるでしょうか、サンドバーも７～８回くらい体験しておりますが、スタッフの方々が安全管理等素晴らしい対応をして頂きました。
本当に、感謝いたします。ありがとうございました。

This was my second time ziplining at Kualoa. The last time was about two years ago (there were no Japanese people after COVID), so everything was in English, but this time the reception was handled by a Japanese person.

The jeep ride to the zip base camp was in fast-paced English, so I listened while using Google Translate.

You will walk a bit on mountain paths, so I think sneakers and comfortable clothing are best. Even for someone like me who is not great with heights, it wasn't scary at all.

If you have time, please enjoy a burger at the café. This time, I had only 30 minutes before the return bus, so I gave up, but it's very delicious.

クアロアでのジップラインは2度目。
前回は約2年前でしたので（コロナ後で日本人がいませんでした）すべて英語でしたが、今回は受付は日本の方でした。
ジップのベースキャンプまでのジープは早口英語ですので、Google翻訳しながら聞きました。

山道を多少歩きますので、スニーカーと動きやすい服装が良いと思います。
かなり高所が苦手な私でも怖くないです。

時間があればカフェでバーガーを召し上がりください。今回は帰りのバスまで30分しかなく諦めましたが、とても美味しいです。

I enjoyed a leisurely ride on horseback, feeling the nature of Hawaii. The ocean is beautiful, but the nature of Kualoa is also stunning.

馬に乗ってのんびりとハワイの自然を感じてきました。
海もきれいですが、クアロアの自然もきれいですよ。

Driving the buggy was fun, and it was great to visit the filming locations of Jurassic World. The two guides were very good and took a lot of photos for us. Since the dust is quite intense, it's better to wear the glasses they provide for rent.

バギーの運転が楽しく、ジュラシックワールドの撮影現場などに行けてことが良かったです。ガイドの2人がとても良くて写真をたくさん撮ってくれました。
砂埃がすごいのでレンタルしてくれる眼鏡をつけたほうがいいです。

Since it's an electric bicycle, climbing hills is easy. I signed up for a two-hour beginner course, but we won't be riding the entire two hours; there will be breaks and explanations from the guide (in English) along the way.

電動自転車なので、登り坂も楽ちんです。
２時間の初心者コースに申し込みましたが、２時間中走るわけではなく、途中、休憩やガイドさんの説明（英語）があります。

This is my second time visiting Kualoa Ranch. Last time, I participated in a 4WD tour. While it might be fun for the driver, I felt that the passengers didn't have as much excitement. This time, I joined a tour on an E-Mountain Bike, which involved riding electric bicycles. It was a self-guided tour where we explored various locations, including movie filming sites, and the exhilaration of riding through nature was fantastic. Driving was a bit challenging at first, but once I got the hang of it, it became very enjoyable, and I was able to ride comfortably. Next time I come, I would like to try a different attraction.

クアロアランチに行くのは今回で2回目です。前回は４WDを運転して回るツアーに参加しました。これも運転する人は楽しいかもしれませんが、乗ってる人はそんなに感動しない感じがしました。それで、今回参加したツアーがEマウンテンバイクでして、電動自転車に乗って回るツアーです。自分で運転していろんなところを回るツアーでして、映画のロケ地も見て回れて、自然の中をバイクで走るという爽快感が素晴らしかったです。運転も初めは難しかったですが、慣れてきたらとても楽しく、気持ちよく走り切る事が出来ました。また次回来るときは、違うアトラクションに参加したいと思います。

This is such an awesome trip and with the perfect amount of time to still do other things back on the island. The trip to the sandbar and back was its own experience in itself with the donuts, juice and live music. That live music was AMAZING, they are so talented and sing so well. I can’t wait to come back again and bring my kids!
