Oahu
The cruise was amazing
Food was delicious
My husband was in a mobility scooter and we were told by your company that he could not use it as weighed too
Much so had to hire a wheelchair.
When got on the bus we mentioned it to the star of Honolulu host and she said we did not need to do that. So maybe for any future customers you could check your information first.
We had a great time. This place is a well oiled machine. From the pickup of transportation to the management of getting you to your tour. The tour was so cool. Two hours of UTV ride through beautiful mountains. Stops along the way to see movie sets and exquisite view points. We could not have been happier. We even had a water crossing. Our hosts were fantastic and knowledgeable. Would highly recommend it to all!
It was my first time horseback riding and visiting the North Shore, but I had the best time! The instructions on how to ride were explained in Japanese, which made it very easy to understand, so I was able to enjoy the experience without any worries. The seaside scenery was incredibly beautiful, beyond words. I was so happy to participate.
乗馬もノースショアも初でしたが、最高の時間を過ごすことができました!
乗馬の乗り方も日本語で説明していただきとても分かりやすかったので不安もなく体験することができ、海辺の景色は言葉にならないぐらい素敵でした。参加できて嬉しかったです。
Thank you very much for participating in the horseback riding tour with Island Makana Tours. We're glad to hear that you enjoyed the horseback riding. Thank you for sharing the wonderful photos as well. When you come back to Hawaii, please be sure to use Island Makana Tours again. Mahalo!!
この度はアイランドマカナツアーズの乗馬のツアーにご参加いただき誠にありがとうございました。お客様が乗馬をお楽しみ頂けたようで良かったです。ステキな写真も載せて下さりありがとうございます。またハワイにお越しの際は、是非アイランドマカナツアーズをご利用くださいませ。Mahalo!!
The sandbar is very nice, we arrived at the tour boat with plenty of time and were able to find parking! which was great, but arrive early to be safe, we received a safety briefing and we were on our way!
The boat ride from the dock to the sandbar is short but with entertainment along the way and snacks.
Once you get there there is a place to snorkel and swim around, and a platform to lounge and baste in the sun.
However the day we went tide was high so the water was up to our chests, however not something the tour can control.
We liked it a lot and would do it again.
Mahalo for your review & sharing your experience! - Team KBOS
There were photo-taking times here and there, and it was enjoyable beyond just driving. The staff were also very kind and accommodating. Although it was in English, you can manage even if you can't speak it.
ところどころ写真撮影タイムがあり、運転以外も楽しかったです。
スタッフも優しく対応してくれました。
英語でしたが、話せなくてもなんとかなります
The scenery and everything else was amazing! It might be a good idea to bring wet wipes since your face and clothes can get dirty from the dirt! I definitely want to visit again!
景色も何もかも最高でした!
顔や服が土で汚れるので、ウェットティッシュなどを持ってくと良いかもです!
必ずまた訪れたいです!
Despite my fear of heights, I took on the challenge! The view from 150 meters above was breathtaking. The meeting point was a bit hard to find, though (laughs). The hut was smaller than I expected!
高所恐怖症ながらチャレンジ!上空150メートルの眺めは絶景でした。ちょっと集合場所がわかりずらかったなあ(笑)小屋が思ったより小さい!
The driver who picked us up was Japanese, and he shared various stories during the bus ride! He asked where in the North we wanted to get off and extended the meeting time based on the situation, which was very thoughtful of him! He also taught us how to ride and dismount the horse, as well as how to change directions, all in Japanese, which was really helpful! Once we arrived at the site, we could use a QR code to watch a YouTube video to confirm how to ride again, which was great!
The staff at the riding area didn't speak our language, but the driver acted as an interpreter, and the staff were cool, kind, and wonderful! It seems that the horses dislike the smell of alcohol, so please be careful about drinking! It really seems like you won't be allowed to ride if you have been drinking. Selfie sticks also seem to be a no-go since the horses dislike them! It's recommended to carry them in a way that hangs around your neck.
The horses were very calm and obedient, so we had a really enjoyable time! Riding along the seaside with the wind in our hair, the view from the horse was amazing! After riding, we were dropped off near our target shop, where we bought and ate some frilly chicken (available only on weekends) and garlic shrimp for lunch. We still had time left, so we were able to explore various shops!
It was a wonderful day! Thank you very much! ♪
ピックアップしてくれたドライバーさんは日本人の方で、移動のバスの中も色んなお話を聞かせてくれました!
ノースのどこで降りたいか希望を聞いてくれたり、集合時間もその時の状況によって延ばしてくれたりと粋な方でした!
馬への乗り方や降り方、方向変換の仕方も車の中で日本語で教えて頂きとても助かりました!
現場に行けばQRコードでYouTubeを見て乗り方を再度確認できるので助かりました!
乗馬場のお姉さんたちも言葉は分からないけどドライバーさんが通訳してくれたり、お姉さんたちもかっこよく優しく素敵でした!
馬たちはお酒の匂いが嫌いだから飲酒がダメみたいなので気をつけてください!
本当に乗せてもらえないようです。
自撮り棒も馬達が嫌うのでダメなようです!
首から掛けられるようにいて行くのがおすすめです。
馬たちも大人しくいうこと聞いてくれるのでとても楽しい時間を過ごせました!
海辺の風に当たりながら、馬上からの景色は最高です!
乗馬の後に目当てのお店の近くで降ろして貰いお昼ご飯にフリフリチキン(土日のみ)とガーリックシュリンプを買って食べ、それでも時間があったので色んなSHOPを見て回れました!
素敵な1日でした!
ありがとうございました♪
Thank you very much for participating in the horseback riding tour with Island Makana Tours. We're glad to hear that you enjoyed the tour. Thank you for sharing the wonderful photos as well. When you come back to Hawaii, please be sure to use Island Makana Tours again. Mahalo!!
この度はアイランドマカナツアーズの乗馬ツアーにご参加いただき誠にありがとうございます。お客様がツアーをお楽しみ頂けたようで良かったです。ステキなお写真も共有していただきありがとうございます。またハワイにお越しの際は、是非アイランドマカナツアーズをご利用くださいませ。Mahalo!!
We did the movie sites tour which was great! Our tour guide was incredibly informative and very passionate about the ranch. We didn’t have a chance to do more like the Jurassic tour or zip lining, so if we get a chance to come back - those are on our list to do next time!
I was able to understand and experience horseback riding despite having a TOEIC score of around 500. Everyone was kind, and when I communicated that I struggled with English, they taught me with simple gestures.
I was able to stroll through nature and even see some wild buffalo!
The only issue was the meeting point. There was a gate to enter the mountains on the way, and you couldn't get in without a password. I was unsure if I was on the right path, so I called, and they told me they had sent the password via email. I still don't know which password it is, but there were some cars coming out, so I managed to get in somehow.
The scenery on the road after entering the gate was different from Japan, and it felt like I was in Jurassic World.
Including the journey there, it truly became a wonderful memory!
トイック500点くらいの私でなんとか理解して乗馬体験できました。
みなさん優しくて、英語苦手なのを伝えると簡単にジェスチャーつきで教えてくださいました。
自然の中を散策して、天然のバッファローも見れました!
1だけ問題があるとしたら現地集合の点です。
向かう途中に山に入るためのゲートがあり、パスワードがないと入らなくなっています。道が合ってるのか不安だったため電話をしたら、メールでパスワード送ってるよと言われました。
いまだにどのパスワードかはわかっていませんが、出てくる車がいたのでなんとか入れた感じです。
ゲートを入ってからの道も日本とは違う景色で、ジュラシックワールドにきた気分でした。
行きの道なども含めて本当にいい思い出になりました!
Refreshing! The tour where you can explore the natural beauty of Hawaii and the fields used for filming Jurassic Park on a four-wheeler was fun. It's about a 1-hour drive from Waikiki, so it's best to arrive with some extra time. There is a slight wait after check-in, but it's not bothersome. My family was too scared to drive the four-wheeler, so it might be a bit challenging for women and beginners. When the unpaved roads are dry, the dust can be quite intense. It's advisable to wear the masks provided at the beginning of the tour, and bringing a change of clothes that you don't mind getting dirty is a good idea. Your face can get quite dusty, so having a towel to wipe your face after washing it with water would be helpful. If you follow the tour guide's instructions (in English), there shouldn't be any major issues.
気分爽快!ハワイの自然とジュラシックパークなどの撮影に使われたフィールドを四輪バギーで回れるツアーは楽しかった。移動はワイキキから車で1時間弱。余裕を持って到着したい。受付後の待ちが少しあるが気にならない程度。四輪バギーの運転は家族は怖がって運転出来ず、女性や初心者には少しハードルが高いかも。未舗装路が乾いていると砂埃がすごい。最初からツアーで配られるマスクは着用した方が良いのと、服は汚れてもいいものか着替えを持って行くと良い。顔も結構埃で真っ黒になるので水で洗った後に拭くタオルがあると良い。ツアーガイドの指示(英語)にしたがって運転すれば、大きな問題はありません。
We enjoyed the scenery as a group while riding in a line, but the girl at the front of the group felt a bit anxious when the path split, as there were no instructions on which way to go, and she kept looking back to wait for the guide. Although we were a group of six, we could hardly hear the guide along the way, so it felt like we were mostly enjoying the horseback riding and the scenery on our own. The views of both the sea and the mountains were fantastic. The guide's response was good, but I think it would be even more enjoyable if those two points were improved. Also, since it wasn't a lead horse, I thought it would be reassuring to have the best rental options available.
グループで馬が1列になり景色を楽しみましたが、グループの先頭になった娘は、道が別れた時どちらに行ったら良いか、指示がなく、何度も後ろを振り返りガイドさんを待ったりと、少し不安になる時がありました…6人でのグループでしたが、途中のガイドもほとんど聞こえず、自分で乗馬と景色を楽しんだ感じでした。景気は海、山両方楽しめて最高です。ガイドのお姉さんの対応はよかったのですが、その2点が改善されるともっと楽しめると思います。あと、引き馬ではないので、是非ベストのレンタルもあると安心できると思いました。
The Luau was amazing, food was great and the entire show was so entertaining!! Me and my partner had a great time. I definitely recommend!
Can't say enough. From beginning to end. Easy pickup and drop off from location in Waikiki,
The whole experience from the friendly, accommodating staff. The hot off the grill burgers hit the spot .
Wanted to go s second time before leaving the island, but ran out of time.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Definitely book this one.
Mahalo to the crew
The driver kindly explained about Hanauma in English. They repeatedly mentioned what not to do, so I understood. Before entering Hanauma, they gave us life jackets at the cliff viewpoint. If you have any additional items, it's a good idea to mention them at this time. Once we arrived at Hanauma, we gathered with the same group of guests to pool together $25 for admission. I think it’s a good idea to bring a mat or something to relax on the beach in advance. It was very kind and I had a lot of fun snorkeling.
英語にはなりますがドライバーさんが丁寧にハナウマについて説明してくれます。
やってはいけないことは何度も言うので理解できました。
ハナウマに入る前に崖の展望台でライフジャケットをくれました。他の追加品があればこの時に言いましょう。
そしてハナウマに着いたら同じグループの客で集まって25ドルもまとめ合い、ハナウマに入場します。
ビーチで休むためのシートなどを事前に持っていくといいと思います。
すごく親切で楽しくスノーケリングを楽しめました。
It was a tour where we could casually enjoy the unique nature of Hawaii. My wife has had a bit less stamina since she was in a wheelchair for about ten months a few years ago, but we are grateful for the support from the very energetic staff member, Tomomi! When you come to Hawaii, this kind of nature also helps detox your mind. I highly recommend this! Tomomi, keep up the great work!
ハワイならではの大自然を気軽に楽しめるツアーでした。家内が数年前に車椅子を10ヶ月ほど乗っていた関係で多少体力が少ないのですが、とっても元気なスタッフのトモミさんがサポートしてくれて感謝!ハワイに来たら、こんな大自然が心のデトックスもしてくれます。これもおすすめ!トモミさん、これからも頑張ってね!
Thank you for your wonderful feedback! We are very happy to hear that you were able to enjoy the great outdoors of Hawaii so easily. We also appreciate your kind words about our guide, Tomomi. I will be sure to pass this message on to her. It seems you were able to experience the beauty of Hawaii's nature, and our entire staff is truly grateful! We look forward to your next participation with us!
素敵なご感想をありがとうございます!ハワイの大自然を気軽に楽しんでいただけたとのことで、とても嬉しいです。また、弊社ガイドのトモミへのありがたいお言葉もありがとうございます。トモミにもこのお言葉をお伝えさせていただきます。ハワイの自然の素晴らしさを感じていただけたようで、スタッフ一同感無量です!次回のご参加も、心よりお待ちしております!
Great place, second time I go there. Pretty spot quiet and peaceful with a lot of activities such as jenga, ping pong etc. They also have cool activities.
Highly recommend
This was an enjoyable experience, and it’s definitely worth doing. You’ll get dirty, so remember to bring a change of clothes. But the sights you’ll see and the pictures you’ll take will be unforgettable. The cafe on-site serves some of the most delicious food. Do yourself a favor and book this tour and enjoy a fun ATV ride!
It was a great experience! The activities were fun and educational! Great family environment! Wonderful performances, amazing performers, good food and drinks! The best activity and experience on our vacation! You have to go!
It was so much fun, a great adventure, beautiful views! The crew was great!
My husband and I had a good time on the cruise. The food was good and the show was fun!
Gracie and Levi were the best guides. Very knowledgeable and funny! My husband and I had a great time! The views were stunning!
So much fun, amazing experience, and beautiful views
You know how you can never quite describe the atmosphere, moments and beauty of something? That was this experience. From a long distance traveler- this was once in a lifetime. Tell everyone you know and bring them with you. 10/10.
My first buggy experience was so much fun! It felt like something you can't experience in Japan, and I have no regrets about trying it out!! I even bought a T-shirt on-site♪
【Reference Information】
- The bus from Waikiki to Kualoa Ranch is cold. I recommend bringing a jacket.
- After arriving, you'll receive information about the meeting points for each course from a Japanese guide. Please note that further procedures may be necessary at the ticket center.
- Many comments mention getting completely covered in dust, but I didn't get that muddy. A sweat wipe was enough, and I didn't need to change.
- There is a Japanese version of the guidance video before boarding, so no problem there.
- The restaurant can get crowded, so if you plan to use it, I recommend going early.
Definitely give it a try!!
初めてのバギー、とても楽しかったです!
大自然の中を走り抜ける感じが日本では味わえない感じで、体験して一切の後悔なしです!!
現地でTシャツも買っちゃいました♪
【参考情報】
・ワイキキ↔︎クアロアランチのバスは寒いです。
上着を持っていくことをお勧めします。
・現地に到着後、日本人ガイドさんから各々のコースの集合場所や集合場所を受けます。
その後、チケットセンター?で更に手続きが必要になりますのでご注意ください。
・砂埃に関して、真っ黒になるとのコメント多いですが私はそこまで泥んこになりませんでした。
汗拭きシートで拭けばどうにかなる程度で着替えは不要でした。
・乗車前のガイダンスムービーは日本語バージョンもあるので問題ないです。
・レストラン?は混雑しているので、利用の場合は早めに行くことをおすすめします。
ぜひご参加してみてください!!
A while ago when I participated, I was seated front and back, but this time it was side by side for parasailing, so I was able to enjoy it while chatting! We went quite high up, and I was able to enjoy the wonderful views of Waikiki and Diamond Head!
ずいぶん前に参加したときは、前後で乗ったのですが、今回は横並びのパラセーリングだったので、会話しながら楽しむことができました!
大分高いところまで上がるので、ワイキキの町並みやダイアモンドヘッドの素晴らしい景色を楽しめました!
I chose this because it has good access from hotels around Waikiki and the travel time by boat is short. Since it's a boat ride, I think some people might get seasick, but it's only about a 10-minute boat ride from Waikiki Beach, so it might be bearable?? There is some rocking, so if you're worried, it's definitely a good idea to take motion sickness medication beforehand.
You can opt to have photos taken, and payment is made afterward. You need to communicate in English with the captains to request photos (if you don't ask, they won't take any). I thought they would just take a few casual shots, but they actually took quite a number of photos and even considered the composition carefully. They managed to capture beautiful shots with passing boats and planes, and I was very satisfied.
The woman at the reception was kind and greeted us with a smile, and she helped me when I was looking for the restroom (there was a restroom about a 2-minute walk away).
I gave a $20 tip to the captains when we disembarked. Thank you to all the staff for an amazing experience!
ワイキキ周辺のホテルからアクセスがよく、船での移動時間も短いという理由から申し込みしました。
船での移動ということもあり、船酔いする方もいらっしゃると思いますがワイキキビーチから10分ほど船を走らせるくらいなのでギリギリ耐えられるかも??揺れはあるので心配な方は酔い止めを飲んでおくのが間違いないです。
オプションで写真をとってもらうことができますが支払いは後払いです。船の上で、キャプテンたちに写真をとってほしいと英語で伝える必要がありました(伝えないと写真は撮ってもらえません)。適当に何枚か撮ってくれるだけかなと思っていましたが、結構な枚数を撮影してくれており、構図までしっかり考えてくれていました。たまたま通りかかった船や飛行機と綺麗に撮ってくれていて大満足でした。
受付の女性も、優しく笑顔で対応してくれて、トイレを探して困っていたところを助けてくれました(徒歩2分くらいのとこにトイレありました)。
チップは20ドルをキャプテンたちに渡して下船しました。
スタッフのみなさま最高な体験をありがとうございました。
We gathered 30 minutes before the parasailing started. It was a bit far from our hotel, but we were able to get there without any issues using thebas. We boarded the boat with other participants and headed out to sea. The boat rocked quite a bit, so I think it's essential to take motion sickness medication if you're prone to seasickness. The view during parasailing was breathtaking!!! It was the best!!! You can get the data from your parasailing experience later for $40. Payment of $40 can also be made by credit card.
パラセーリング開始30半前に集合します。当方の宿泊ホテルから少し離れていましたが、thebasを使い問題なく向かうことができました。他の参加者と共に船に乗り込み、沖に向かいます。結構揺れるので、船酔いする方は酔い止め必須だと思います。パラセーリング中の景色は絶景です!!!最高でした!!!パラセーリング中のデータを後で40ドルでもらうことが出来ます。40ドルはクレカでも支払い可能でした。
I was able to immerse myself in the world of Jurassic Park while horseback riding. I was overwhelmed by the magnificent scenery. The Japanese guidance was very comprehensive, so I felt no anxiety at all.
乗馬しながらジュラシックパークの世界に浸れました。壮大な景色に圧倒されました。日本語の案内も大変充実しているので、全く不安は感じませんでした
Once gathered, we will split into groups and head to the sea by boat. Two people will take turns paragliding. You can enjoy the wonderful scenery for about five minutes! The equipment is not particularly difficult to use, so I think it will be fine.
集合したら各グループに別れボートで海へ向かいます。
2人ずつ順番にパラセイリングを行います。
5分ほど飛び、素晴らしい絶景をたのしむことができます!
装備品も特に難しいものはないので大丈夫だと思います。
