All Reviews for Toddler-Friendly (Ages 2-4)

I arranged this for my parents who are over 60 years old. They said there was an hour wait from when they were picked up until they boarded. Was that time for a stroll? The explanations underwater were all in English, but it seems my parents, who don't understand English, were still able to enjoy it to some extent.

６０歳オーバーの両親のために手配しました。迎えに来てもらってから乗るまでに１時間の待ち時間があったそうです。散策の時間でしょうか？海中の説明は全て英語で英語がわからない両親でもそれなりに楽しめたそうです。

This was not my first doors off helicopter experience in the Hawaiian islands but definitely the worst. First, you should know that even though you pay full money for doors off you may get stuck in a cramped little seat between another passenger and the pilot in the front. You have no choice where you sit as you are assigned your seat. Good luck trying to get any pictures from that spot. The pilot takes you out the same way as he returns....over flat nothing. There is a tiny spec of lava (maybe) but it sure no spouting red flowing lava as advertised. You do not fly over the ocean at all so you dont see any ocean lava flow. There is definitely NO NO heat. There are fly zone restrictions so you cant get near the pahoa town they talk about to respect the privacy of the residents. You see a couple waterfalls from so far away... It is riduculous. Save your money... Go to Kauai..... Those doors off tours are true.... Everyone gets a doors off spot. Everyone can see. You fly right into the waterfall areas. You see things you will never forget. This was a wasted day of our vacation not to mention the huge cost..... To see nothing. At least they could have flown back another way over the coastline or something. I would not recommend this to anyone. Very disappointed and wasted money.

On the day we participated, our swim guide was Mr. Nawata and the boat captain was Mr. Taka. Both of them were experts in the ocean and very reliable.

I have some experience with snorkeling and diving, but my niece, who traveled with me, was doing it for the first time and seemed anxious at first. However, she quickly got used to it and started enjoying herself. Mr. Nawata and Mr. Taka understand the behavior and movements of dolphins very well, so as long as you listen to their advice on what to do in the water, you'll be fine.

In the water, Mr. Nawata pulled my arm, allowing me to see the dolphins up close. Their determination to ensure that participants definitely see dolphins was palpable. We saw dolphins everywhere, both near the surface and close to the seabed. Dolphins are really cute; I found them endearing.

Later, when I talked to various tour guides and restaurant staff about participating in Mr. Nawata's dolphin tour, everyone said, "Mr. Nawata is the best dolphin expert on the Big Island!" I will definitely join Mr. Nawata's tour again next time.

Also, on that day, Captain Taka mentioned that he also does scuba diving, so I spoke with him on the phone after this tour. Unfortunately, our schedules didn't match this time, but I hope to ask Mr. Taka for scuba diving next time.

Thank you, Mr. Nawata and Mr. Taka, for your help. I'm looking forward to next time. Thank you!

私達が参加した日はスイムガイドが縄田さんで
船のキャプテンがタカさんでした。
お二人とも海のエキスパートでとても頼もしかったです。

私はシュノーけリングやダイビングは何回か経験していますが
一緒に旅行した姪っ子は初めてで最初は不安そうでしたが
すぐに慣れて楽しんでいました。
縄田さんもタカさんもイルカの性格や動きをよくわかっていらっしゃるので
海の中でどうすれば良いか等、アドバイスをしっかり聞けば大丈夫です。

海の中では縄田さんが腕を引っ張ってくれ、イルカを間近で見れました。
とにかく参加者にイルカを絶対に見てもらうという姿勢がビシビシ伝わります。
海面近くにも、海底近くにも、あちこちにイルカがいっぱい見れました。
イルカって本当にかわいいですね。愛おしくなりました。

後日、いろんなツアーのガイドさんや、レストランなどでも
縄田さんのイルカのツアーに参加したとお話ししたら皆さん全員、
”縄田さんがハワイ島で一番のイルカのエキスパートだからね！”と
おっしゃっていました。
また次回も絶対に縄田さんのツアーに参加します。

あと、この日キャプテンのタカさんがスキューバダイビングもしていらっしゃるとのことで、こちらのツアーの後にタカさんと電話でお話ししました。
日程が合わず今回は残念でしたが、次回はタカさんにスキューバダイビングをお願いします。

縄田さん、タカさん、お世話になりました。
また次回も楽しみにしています。
ありがとうございました！

The crew took very good care of us, and over two hours of snorkeling in the protected-marine-life bay was a delight!!!! Bring sunblock, your swimsuit, and your sense of adventure! Even folks with accessibility issues were able to float in the water with viewers and see the coral, fish, and other marine life.

First of all, I think you shouldn't expect too much from the meals. Also, my husband and I both didn't understand much English, so we couldn't follow what the host was saying and couldn't keep up with the atmosphere in the venue. Additionally, when we took a dinner cruise later, there was a similar show, so if you are considering participating in both, it might not be necessary. Furthermore, many hotels host similar shows every other day, so you might be able to experience the atmosphere just by passing by without going out of your way to see it.

まず食事はあまり期待しないほうがいいかと思います。
また、私たち夫婦は二人共あまり英語がわからなかったので、司会の人が話されていることは全然理解できず、会場内のノリについていけませんでした。
また、後日ディナークルーズに乗船した際、同じような内容のショーがあったのでもし両方参加を検討されているようでしたら必要ないかと思います。
また、ホテルによっては同じようなショーが隔日くらいのペースで開催されているところも多いので、わざわざ見に行かなくても通りがかり程度で雰囲気は味わえるかもしれません。

My wife and I came to the luau with our 4 children ages 18, 16, 14, and 8. We all enjoyed the activities before the meal. The food was great and lots of it. And the entertainment was informative, interesting, and very lively. If you have never done it, I recommend doing it at least once. I would go back for the food alone!

They did a great job with my young kids. Everyone got in the water and had fun. When the 5 year old was ready to get back on the boat, they took her and let the adults stay in the water. Professional and fun.

During my first cruise around the Hawaiian Islands, I had to sadly give up on seeing the wild manta rays in Kona due to a lack of time. This time, as a diver, I stayed at the Sheraton Hotel with an ocean view in Keauhou to see the mantas. The meeting point was conveniently just a five-minute walk from the hotel.

I was torn between diving and snorkeling, but choosing snorkeling turned out to be the right decision. However, since mantas can be scared away, fins were prohibited, and we were instructed to wear a float called a noodle around our feet when entering the water from the boat. This meant I had to hold onto a lighted aluminum bar connected to the boat with my left hand while filming with my right hand. The mantas, swirling and gulping down the plankton attracted by the lights, were truly breathtaking. They came so close that I could almost touch them. It was so moving that I went again two days later! I was thrilled to encounter mantas at such a close distance, something every diver dreams of. Although the photos didn’t turn out well due to the darkness and the mantas moving, the videos were perfect. The staff at Sea Paradise were friendly and made the experience even more enjoyable.

The Sea Paradise office is located near the supermarket in the Keauhou Shopping Center. It opens at 7 AM, so I stopped by after breakfast to hand over my coupon, which meant I didn’t have to call at 4 PM to borrow a wetsuit. Other necessary gear was provided once we boarded the boat.

It was November, but it wasn’t cold at all, and it took only about five minutes from the manta site to the port. I changed and had a meal at the restaurant's restroom at the dock. Next time, I want to go with my daughter.

ハワイ諸島を巡るクルーズで初めてコナに行った時は時間がなく泣く泣く諦めた野生マンタ。ダイバーの今回はマンタを見るためにKeauhouにあるシェラトンホテルのオーシャンビューにステイ。集合場所がホテルの直ぐ側で徒歩5分と便利でした。
ダイビングがいいのかシュノーケリングが良いか迷いましたが、シュノーケリングにして大正解でした。但し、マンタが怖がるのでフィンは使用禁止、ボートから海に入るときには足に引っ掛けるヌードルと呼ばれるフローターを足に付けるように指示されるので、実際には左手でボートに繋がっている照明付きのアルミ製のバーに掴まって右手で動画を撮るといった感じです。照明で集まったプランクトンを回転しながら飲み込んでいくマンタ達は圧巻です。顔スレスレに近づいてきます。あまりに感動的で翌々日にもう１回！ダイバー憧れのマンタにこんな至近距離でお目にかかれるとは感激です。写真は照明があっても暗くマンタは動いているのでなかなか上手に撮れませんでしたが動画はバッチリでした。シーパラダイスのスタッフもフレンドリーで楽しさを倍増させてくれました。シーパラダイスのオフィスはKeauhou ショッピングセンター内のスーパーマーケット付近にあります。朝7時からオープンしてるので朝食を食べた帰りに立ち寄りクーポンを渡したので4時に電話する必要もなくウェットスーツを借りて帰りました。その他必要なギア等はボートに乗ってから渡されます。
11月でしたが全く寒くなく、マンタのサイトから港までほんの5分くらいでした。船着場にあるレストランのトイレで着替えて食事をしました。次回は娘と一緒に行きたいと思っています。

That was my first surfing lesson and I had a great time! The coaches were very nice, helpful and tried hard to choose the best waves for us to go on. We were registered to come in the early morning but they called and told us that there was no wind at the time and no good waves for surfing. Instead they suggested to come a bit later. We arrived later in the day when waves were pretty good. The place is really well suited for starters. I really enjoyed the experience and had a wonderful time surfing! I really recommend this surfing lesson because it was beyond my expectation.
My father asked for advanced board and they easily accommodated his request and helped him to advance to the level of driving such a board.

This was my children's first introduction to surfing. I really liked how they could have a private instructor who rode the board with them. My son is 5 and my daughter is 7. She has high functioning autism and struggles with anxiety but she really wanted to give it a try. The instructors were really great with both of our kids. The waves were pretty minimal and we had the option to cancel, but the kids would have been so disappointed so we decided to go anyway. Both kids managed to stand up and my daughter did indeed ride a small wave. The pre-lesson on dry land in the office is really useful, especially since they use visuals which really meets my daughter's learning style. We would love to do this again, and next time mom and dad want to give it a try too.

This was truly a unique experience that should be done once. It is kind of creepy being out in the open ocean at night, but that is the exciting part and of course the Manta Rays will not disappoint. After about 25 minutes in the water you've seen enough, but definitely a thrilling 25 minutes.

Saw lots of beautiful fish! Great crew! Not quite as much fun as scuba, but SOOO much easier than getting wet! Everyone should see the underwater part of Hawaii!

I took a taxi to the Careho Shopping Center, borrowed a sweat suit at the office, and put it on over the swimsuit I was wearing. Then, I got back into the waiting taxi and headed to Careho Bay, where the boat was docked. There were only my partner and me, the only Japanese people there. I felt anxious, but looking at the people around me, I realized it would be fine.

Once we got out to sea, we all took the noodles, which are floating devices, and gradually lowered them from under our arms down to our ankles while putting on our snorkels, waiting for the manta rays to come close to the lights. It felt like being a diver inside an aquarium. The manta rays came so close to my face and body; it was incredibly impressive. That sensation was moving and thrilling, and it's definitely worth experiencing at least once!

　ケアホウショッピングセンターへタクシーで乗り付け、スエットスーツを事務所で借り、着ていった水着の上に着込み、待ってもらってたタクシーで船が停泊しているケアホウ湾へ。
日本人は私とカップルだけ。　不安だったけど、周りの人達を見ていると、どうにかなるもの。船で沖出て、海面に浮かべた梯子状になったロープにみんなでヌードルと呼ぶ浮きを、脇の下から、徐々に足首までおろしシュノーケルをつけ、ライトに寄ってくるマンタを待ちます。まるで、水族館の水槽な中のダイバーになった気分でした。顔や体すれすれに近寄ってくるマンタ、迫力満点です。あの感覚は感動的、スリリング、ぜひ一度は経験する価値は十分あります！

This was wonderful! Would definitely recommend to all visiting the Big Island, best way to see the whole island.

My first time in Hawaii, only speaking Japanese, and it was my first time snorkeling in over 20 years. I was quite anxious participating alone, but thanks to Daisuke's wonderful Japanese guidance, I was able to see many spinner dolphins and, lucky me, I also encountered a banded sea snake and a manta ray! (^o^)

Next time I have the opportunity to participate, I definitely want to bring an underwater video camera. (^^)

初めてのハワイ、言葉は日本語のみ、フィンも初めて、海で泳ぐのは２０年ぶり以上のおっさんが、ひとりで不安だらけでの参加でしたが、ダイスケさんのすばらしい日本語ガイドと誘導で、多くのハシナガイルカと、ラッキーにもバンドーさん、マンタ君にも会えました～。(^o^)

次回、参加できる機会がありましたら、ぜひ海中ビデオを持って行きたいです。(^^)

I previously participated in the morning cruise twice, but due to scheduling conflicts, I joined the afternoon cruise this time. Our group was the only one with Japanese participants. The waves were calmer than expected, and the snorkeling time was just right.

以前は午前のクルージングに２回参加しましたが、日程の都合で今回は午後のクルージングに参加しました。　日本人の参加者は我々のグループだけでした。　予想以上に波も穏やかで、シュノーケリング時間もちょうどいい位でした。

It was my first time kayaking, but I had a wonderful half-day guided by Noni and Kevin. I enjoyed kayaking, snorkeling in the beautiful sea, and relaxing on the lava rocks, fully experiencing the great nature of the Big Island. They also took photos during the tour, and I received all the data shortly afterward. It's often the case that photos taken during trips are sold at high prices, but in this tour, I felt that they were genuinely guiding us to enjoy kayaking without any such concerns. The personalities of the two guides were truly wonderful. Since it was a water activity, I chose this tour with a Japanese guide for safety, and it was definitely the right choice.

I participated from Mauna Lani, so the meeting point was a bit far, but I still felt it was worth it. Don't forget your rash guard, hat, and sunscreen as the sun is strong!

シーカヤックは初めてでしたが、ノニさんケヴィンさんの案内で楽しい半日を過ごすことができました。とてもきれいな海でのカヤック、シュノーケル、そして溶岩のうえでの岩盤浴とハワイ島の大自然を満喫できました。ツアー中は写真も撮ってくださり、後日すぐに全てのデータもいただけました。旅行中に撮ってもらう写真は販売目的で高額なことになることが多いですが、このツアーではそのようなことがなく、純粋にカヤックを楽しむためのガイドをしてくれていると感じました。ガイドのお二人の人柄がとても素晴らしいです。海でのアクティビティなので、安全を考えて日本語ガイドであるこのツアーを選びましたが大正解でした。

マウナ・ラニからの参加でしたので、集合場所までは少し距離がありましたが、それをもってしても参加してよかったと思えます。
日差しが強いのでラッシュガード・帽子・日焼け止めなどお忘れなく！

I have also done dolphin swimming in Mikurajima, but the sea was deep and the waves were rough, so I couldn't really see the dolphins. The color of the sea in Hawaii Island is very beautiful with the light shining through, and you can float easily. I was moved to see the dolphins up close and hear their voices. Luckily, there were also three mantas! I was able to swim leisurely with them.

ドルフィンスイムは御蔵島でもしたことがありますが、海が深く、波が荒れていてじっくりイルカを見ることができませんでした。
ハワイ島の海の色は、光が差してとても綺麗で、楽に浮いていることができます。
とても間近でイルカを見れ、声を聴けて感動しました。
ラッキーなことに、マンタも３匹いて！ゆったり一緒に泳ぐことが出来ました♪

Our tour guide Denis, (spelling?) was fabulous - I wanted to take him home with us. He is very knowledgeable and entertaining. This tour was more than we expected and would do it over and over again! Especially because of our guide! He is so patient and kind....the BEST!

This time, my spouse and I stayed on the Big Island for six days.

We only booked the "Deluxe Tour to World Heritage Site Kilauea and Mauna Kea Stargazing (Volcano and Stars in One Day!) by Kailani Tours Hawaii" through VELTRA, so we also signed up for this plan to fully enjoy the Hawaiian atmosphere. It was definitely the right choice!

Although there were opinions in the reviews that everything was in English and it wouldn't be fun unless you were proficient in the language, I’m posting this to alleviate those concerns and help others enjoy it more.

1. First, the coupon reception
I attached a photo, but when you enter the Kamehameha Hotel and go to the right at the dedicated reception, you can present your coupon, and they will tell you the meeting place. (Staff were present at this reception from the morning.) This map was provided by the hotel. Since I’m not good at English, bringing it along to ask about the meeting place was a good decision. I might not have understood it just verbally... (It was in an area that seemed to explain Hawaii's history within the hotel.)

2. Meeting place and landmarks
I attached a photo for this as well, but there will be signs in the hotel, so that’s where you gather. The person at the dedicated reception told me to arrive by 5 PM, but be careful about that! It’s better to arrive about an hour early to secure a good spot in line. I arrived 50 minutes early and was at the front of the general line, but there was already one group in the priority line, and it became a queue after about 20 minutes. The seating is first-come, first-served, so it’s best to gather early!

3. Content
After lining up, I received a free lei (I didn’t purchase the paid ones) and took photos (they will come around selling them), and after checking in, we went to the venue to grab drinks and were shown to our seats. I was the first to arrive and sat in the front row center of the general seating, but the Japanese people who arrived normally and lined up were also seated together in fairly decent spots in a separate group. (It seems they make arrangements so that you can converse with others in Japanese.)

At the venue, a band was already performing, and there were free services like tattooing and weaving fish with grass. Of course, drinks, including alcohol, were free-flowing.

Dinner started around 6:15 PM, and it gets dark before 7 PM, so it’s best to wrap up your meal and drinks by then.

Having researched the structure of this event through reviews, I was able to enjoy it a lot even though I’m not good at English. It was fun. (I think it would be enjoyable even for families with children!)

今回はハワイ島に夫婦で６日間の滞在でした。

VELTRAさんの「高級バン（メルセデス・ベンツ）で行く！世界遺産キラウエアとマウナケア山麓星空観測(１日で火山と星 ♪）デラックスツアーby カイラニ・ツアーズ・ハワイ」しかツアーは申し込んでいなかったので、ハワイの雰囲気を堪能するためにこのプランも申し込みました。
参加して大正解でした！

口コミではすべて英語なので語学が堪能でないと面白くないとの意見も出ていましたが、そんな不安を解消するためと、より楽しんでもらうために投稿をします。

１．まずはクーポンの受付
　写真を張りましたが、カメハメハホテルを入って右手の専用受付にクーポンを出すと、
　集合場所を教えてくれます。（この受付は朝からスタッフが張り付いていました。）
　この見取り図はホテルでもらった見取り図です。英語が苦手なため持参して集合場所を聞い
　たのは正解でした。口頭だけだとわからなかったかも、、、
　（ホテル内にあるハワイの歴史説明エリアみたいなところでした。）

２．集合場所や目印
　これも写真を張りましたが、ホテル内に看板が出されるのでそこに集合です。
　専用受付の人は１７時に行けばいいと教えてくれますが、そこは注意！
　約一時間前に行って列の先頭をとれるかとれないかの感じです。私は50分前に行って
　一般列の先頭でしたが、既に優先席列には一組並んでいましたし、２０分ぐらいしたら行列
　になっています。観覧席は早いもの順なので早めの集合が良いですよ！

３．内容
　行列に並んだあと、無料レイ（有料例は購入しませんでした）を受けもらって撮影後
　（会場で売りに来ます）、本受付をしたのちに会場までいって飲み物を取って席に案内を
　してもらいます。
　私は一番乗りで一般席最前列中央でしたが、普通に来て並んでいた日本人たちは、別グルー
　プでもそんなに悪くない席にある程度まとめて座らせてもらっていました。（日本語で他人
　と会話ができるようにしてくれる配慮みたいです）
　
　会場ではすでにバンドが演奏、タトゥーや草で魚編む体験など無料のサービスがあります。
　もちろん飲み物もアルコールを含めてフリードリンクです。

　1815ぐらいから食事開始で、19時前には手元も暗くなりますから、それまでに食事や飲み
　物はひと段落しておいたほうがいいですね。

ある程度、このイベントの構成等を口コミ等で調べていたので、英語が苦手でもすごく楽しめました。
楽しかったです。（お子様がいても楽しめると思いますよ！）

It’s about a one-hour boat trip to Kealakekua Bay. For breakfast, we had bagels, papaya, melon, and coffee. Once we arrived at Kealakekua Bay, we started our first snorkeling session. For lunch, we enjoyed burgers, hot dogs, fruits, and drinks like cola and coffee, followed by our second snorkeling session. The joy of chasing fish in the clear, calm bay is exceptional. There were about 40 participants, but only three groups of Japanese, including us, totaling seven people, while most were Westerners. We borrowed floatation devices to swim, and even if you’re confident in your swimming, having a floatation device makes it easier. I thought I had applied enough sunscreen, but my shoulders got sunburned. Sunscreen is definitely necessary. It was a tour I would like to join again.

ケアラケクア湾まで約１時間の船旅です。朝食はベーグルとパパイア、メロンとコーヒー。
ケアラケクア湾へ着くと１回目のシュノーケル開始、昼食はバーガー、ホットドッグ、果物にコーラやコーヒーなどを食べ、２回目のシュノーケルを行いました。澄み切った穏やかな湾で魚たちを追う楽しさは格別です。４０名程の参加者がいましたが、日本人は私たちを含め３組、７名だけで大半が欧米人でした。腰に巻く浮具を借り泳ぎましたが、泳ぎに自信があっても浮具はあった方が楽です。日焼け止めを十分に塗ったつもりでしたが、肩口は赤くなりました。日焼け止めは絶対に必要です。
また参加したいと思えるツアーでした。

Thank you, Kevin and Noni, for your support.
The OP tour in Hawaii left the biggest impression on me.
I have experienced various tours before, but none of them were particularly moving. However, this time, the kayaking, snorkeling, and paddleboarding were absolutely perfect.
First of all, the beauty of the ocean was remarkable, and it was a significant difference compared to Oahu, which was truly moving.
Additionally, the program was just right for me and my wife to experience together, and above all, we were very satisfied with the attentive service from the two instructors.
It seems that Kevin and Noni have other plans as well, so I would love to rely on you again next time.
Thank you very much.

ケビンさん　ノニさん　お世話になりました。
ハワイのOPツアーで一番印象に残りました。
ツアーは今まで、色々体験しましたが、どれも　今一　感動が薄かったのですが
今回の　カヤックとシュノーケルとパドルボードは、見事にはまりました。
第一に海が綺麗な事、オアフ島とは格段の差があり、感動でした。
また、私の奥さんと体験するには、丁度良いプログラムであった事と
何より　インストラクターの二人に丁寧に接して戴いた事で
ツアー料金以上に、満足しました。
まだ、ケビンさんノニさんは、別のプランもお持ちの様ですので
次回もお世話になりたいものです。
宜しくお願いします。

I was able to sit in the front row when I arrived on time.
The show featured wonderful hula dancing, powerful male fire performances, and a packed schedule that made the time fly by.
The food was served buffet-style, which allowed me to adjust the amount I ate, and I thought that was great. The taste was fairly good.

集合時間通りに行ったら、一番前の席に座ることができました。
ショーの内容は素敵なフラダンス、
迫力満点の男性の火を使ったダンスと盛りだくさんの内容であっという間の時間でした。
お料理はブュッフェで、自分が食べる量を調節できたのでよかったと思います。味はそれなりに美味しかったです。

Enjoyed the lovely setting by the ocean. Could hear waves crashing on shore as dinner & show took place.

Chris, our guide was very knowledgeable, organized and encouraging. The hike was through a forest and green area with lots of water and waterfalls. We learned a lot about the plants, trees and animals, both native and those introduced from other places.
The swim at the end of the hike was very cold, but fun and refreshing. If you are young and healthty this will be a fun and easy hike, however, if you are long in the teeth,it will be moderate, lots of rocks and steps. If you have knee, back or hip problems don't take this hike. Otherwise, you will love it. Definitely worth the money. Ask for Chris to be your guide.

I reported that I couldn't swim, but they told me it would be fine since I was wearing a wetsuit, so I went into the sea. I was scared, but I managed without any floatation devices.

"Over here! More towards the shallow area! Out to the open water!" I desperately followed the instructions of the swim guide, Daisuke. He even helped pull me along at times. I was able to swim a little with the dolphins and even hear their sounds.

There were some people who looked like they were suffering from seasickness, so I think it would be wise to take motion sickness medication just to be safe.

「泳げません～」と申告しましたが、ウェットスーツ着てるんだから大丈夫大丈夫、と云われ、そのまま海へ。怖かったけど、確かに浮き具なしでもなんとかなりました。
「こっちこっち」「もっと浅瀬へ」「沖の方へ」、スイムガイドのDaisukeさんの指示に必死に従って泳ぎます。Daisukeさんに引っ張ってもらえたりもしました。ちょっとだけイルカと一緒に泳げて、声も聞くことができました。
船酔いしている方もいらして辛そうだったので、酔い止めは飲んでおいた方が安心かなと思います。

I have seen the Hilton Luau three times so far. This time, the Hawaiian show felt fresh with younger performers. I had a great time participating from the front row.

今までに３回ヒルトンのルアウを見ました。今回のハワイアンショウーは構成メンバーも若く新鮮に感じました。一番前の席で大変楽しく参加させていただきました。

I participated alone and felt a bit anxious, but with Daisuke's guidance, I had a great time and thoroughly enjoyed the ocean after a long time. A pod of dolphins came to us, and it was an experience like no other; I was incredibly moved.

1人参加で、不安もありましたが、ダイスケさんのガイドで、とても楽しく、久しぶりの海を満喫しました。イルカの群れも、たくさん来てくれて、今まで味わった事がないほどの感動でした。

It was cloudy in the morning, but around the time I was supposed to meet Kevin, the sky cleared up. I went kayaking while learning various things from Kevin and Noni. This time, it was just my family, and we took it easy.

We also enjoyed snorkeling. It was really fun, the fish were beautiful, and it was a great tour. The pineapple after getting back on land was delicious too. I would like to join Kevin and Noni's tour again next year. Thank you for a wonderful day!

朝から、曇り空でしたが。ケビンさんとの待ち合わせ時間ぐらいから、青空に。
ケビンさんとノニさんに色々教えてもらいながら、カヤックをしました。
今回、うちの家族だけでのんびりと。

シュノーケリングも堪能しました。
本当に楽しくて、魚もきれいで、よいツアーでした。
陸に上がってからのバイナップルも美味しかったです。来年も、またケビンさんとノニさんのツアーに参加したいです。
楽しい一日をありがとうございました。

Since I stayed at the King Kamehameha Hotel, I had no travel time at all. I wasn't sure where the reception was and got a little lost, but I saw a line forming, so I joined it. While waiting, I was asked if I wanted to buy a lei and had the chance to take some photos.

After checking in, I went to the venue next to the beach and made my way to my seat with a drink in hand. The Mai Tai was really delicious. I ordered various drinks and enjoyed them. The staff guided us to our seats as we arrived. Once seated, I chatted with the people next to me and across from me while waiting for the show to start. I was a bit anxious since I don't speak much English, but everyone was kind and spoke to me.

The show was entirely in English, but it was enjoyable to watch, so I found it interesting. It was an impressive performance.

However... since it was outdoors, there was a downpour, and I received a raincoat from the staff to watch the show. The show proceeded as scheduled despite the rain. Even in the downpour, I laughed with those around me, saying, "Wow, the rain is intense!" This became a good memory.

The food was delicious, especially the meat, taro, and poke. I think it's better to take a lot at once so you can enjoy the show at a leisurely pace. There are many types of drinks, so I believe you'll find a favorite.

I think this Hawaiian show offers an experience of "Hawaii" that you can't find on Oahu.

I would love to participate again if I stay at the King Kamehameha Hotel.

キングカメハメハホテルに泊まって参加だったため、移動時間がまったくありません。
受付の場所がわからず、少し迷ってしまいましたが行列ができていたので並びました。並んでいる間はレイを購入するか聞かれたり、写真をとったりしながら並びます。
受付後、ビーチ横にある会場に行き、ドリンクを片手に席まで行きます。マイタイがとってもおいしかったです。いろいろなドリンクを注文してたくさん飲みました。席は来た人から係の人が案内してくれます。席に着くと隣の人や向かいに座っている外国の方と話しながらショーを始まるのを待ちます。英語があまり話せないので不安でしたが、皆さん優しく話してくれました。
ショーはすべて英語ですが、見て楽しめるので面白かったです。
迫力のあるショーです。

しかし。。。
野外の為、スコールになってしまい、係の人にカッパをもらってショーを見ました。
ショーは雨天決行の為、普通にショーは進みます。
スコールでも周りの人と「雨すごいね」と笑いながら見ました。
これも良い思い出です。

食事もおいしく、お肉、タロイモ、ポケがとてもおいしかったです。
一回でたくさん取ったほうがゆっくりショーが見れますので良いと思います。
飲み物もたくさん種類がありますので好みのお酒が見つかると思います。


オワフ島では味わえない『ハワイ』が体験できるハワイアンショーだと思います。

またキングカメハメハホテルに泊まったら参加したいです。
