All Reviews for Sightseeing / Guided Tours

You are pretty much just paying for a ride there. It is a very pretty hike, I would make sure to wear shoes with traction as it does get pretty slippery towards the top. Q lot of good picture spots.

The riding style was Western. My 5-year-old and 8-year-old children also rode solo, and we walked through the canyon for a little over an hour. The horse was said to be a retired polo horse, and it was very impressive and smart. There were muddy paths along the way, and the ups and downs were thrilling. The view from the top was amazing.

乗馬スタイルは、ウエスタンです。5歳と8歳の子供も１人乗りで、1時間ちょっと渓谷を歩きました。ポロ競技を引退した馬だそうで、とても立派で賢い馬でした。途中道がぬかるんでいたり、アップダウンもありドキドキでした。頂上からの景色が最高でした。

Our tour guide was so much fun! He even sang us a song with his ukelele!

It was the ultimate luxury to take a leisurely walk while enjoying the adorable horse and the wonderful scenery. When I pulled the reins, the horse seemed a bit grumpy, which was also honest and cute.
The guide was very kind and had interesting stories, and we quickly reached the North Shore. The garlic shrimp was even more delicious than I had imagined.
Thank you for the unforgettable experience that words cannot express.

とても可愛い馬(私はニオイでした♪♪)と素晴らしい景色を眺めながらのんびり散歩するのは最高の贅沢でした。手網を引くと、ちょっと機嫌が悪そうにする所も素直で可愛かったです。
ガイドさんもとても親切で、お話も面白くて、あっという間にノースショアまでたどり着きました。ガーリックシュリンプも想像以上の美味しさでした。
言葉では言い表せないほどの感動をありがとうございました。

Delicious pineapples, interesting history telling by the tour guide, very strong alcohols to sample, even had a song sung for us!

This time, I participated with a couple of friends and four seniors. A year and a half ago in Hawaii Island (December), I had signed up on-site, but it was canceled due to heavy rain the day before, so I couldn't participate. Instead, I was able to see the snow-covered white Mauna Kea (truly a white mountain)... This time, I made a reservation for the day after arriving in Hawaii Island, allowing for some flexibility. However, on the day of the tour, the bus came all the way to our accommodation to inform us that "the summit is closed due to strong winds." We were able to check the schedule on the spot and change our reservation to April 3, two days later. On the day of the reservation, our guide, Shin, came to pick us up. Since the bus was full (11 people) and we were only in the Keauhou area, we had plenty of time.

During the climb, it rained a little in the clouds, but at the 2000m Mauna Kea Park, the 2800m Visitor Center, and the 4200m summit, the weather was perfect, and we were able to see a wonderful sunset. The bento we ate on the bench at the 2800m Visitor Center wasn't as amazing as Shin said (??), but the miso soup was indeed delicious, and the high energy of our bus guide Matsuzaki was enjoyable. After the Visitor Center, there was some off-road driving, and the back seats of the bus were bouncing, making it a lot of fun.

As we climbed near the summit and saw the Subaru Telescope, our excitement soared. It seems that after sunset at the summit, we must descend within 30 minutes, so we went down to the 3800m parking area where we could see the stars. The starry sky we saw there was indescribably moving. At first, there was still some sunlight, but it gradually got darker, and more stars became visible. We were able to see shooting stars four times. Shin's explanation of the constellations was wonderful. He showed us the Orion Nebula through a telescope. After that, we took commemorative photos against the starry sky, which can be downloaded later along with other photos.

On the way up, I started to feel the thin air around 3800m, and when I bent down to put on my socks at the summit, I felt a bit dizzy, but I didn't experience any clear symptoms of altitude sickness and was able to return safely. I was blessed with the best opportunity to easily climb to 4200m and see a sky full of stars (truly!). I would love to participate again. Depending on the weather, I highly recommend it. Please do give it a try!

今回友人夫婦とシニア4人で参加しました。　1年半前のハワイ島（12月）では現地で申し込みするも、前日の大雨で中止になり参加できませんでした。　その代わり積雪のある白いマウナケア（まさに白い山）を拝めましたが...　今回は事前に余裕をみて、ハワイ島到着日の翌日に予約を入れました。ところが当日わざわざバスで宿泊地まで来ていただき「強風のため山頂は閉鎖」と伝えられたことから、その場でスケジュール確認し、2日後の4月3日に予約を変更することができました。　予約当日ガイドのシンさんがお迎えにきて、今回はケアウホウ地区のみでバスが一杯（11人）になったため時間に余裕がありました。　登る途中では雲の中で雨も少し降りましたが、2000mのマウナケアパーク、2800mのビジターセンター、4200mの山頂でも天候ばっちりで素晴らしいサンセットが見られました。　2800mのビジターセンターのベンチで食べるお弁当も、シンさんが言うほど（？？）でもなく、お味噌汁は確かにおいしく、同行したバスのガイド松崎さんのハイテンションも楽しかったです。　ビジターセンターからしばらくオフロードがあり、バスの後部座席は跳ねてはねてギャハギャハと盛り上がっていました。　山頂付近に登りスバル天文台が見えると超テンションがあがります。　山頂では日没後は30分以内に降りなければならないようで、星を見られる3800mの駐車スペースまで下ります。　そこで見た星空は感動としか言いようがないものでした。　最初は太陽の光が残っていますが、徐々に暗くなり見える星も増えてきます。　流れ星も４回見ることができました。　シンさんの星座の説明素晴らしかったです。　望遠鏡でオリオンの大星雲を見せてもらいました。　それから星空をバックに記念撮影もしてもらい、後でその他の写真と一緒にダウンロードできます。　行きは3800mあたりから空気の薄さを感じ、山頂で靴下をはこうと頭を下げたらクラッときましたが、自力での登山中のようにあきらかな酸素不足を感じることも、高山病の症状も無く無事戻ってこられました。　最高の機会に恵まれ、楽〜に4200mまで登り、満天（まさに！）の星空を見られるツアー、また参加したいです。　天候次第ですが、おすすめです。　是非チャレンジしてください。

Wedding ceremonies have been held at the fern grotto for decades. It's a historic and beautiful spot to get married or renew your vows. We didn't know this before arriving but it was a special surprise since my fiance proposed the day before. The cruise to the fern grotto was the perfect way to end our vacation in Kauai. Even if you're not going for a wedding, you'll get to hear and watch Hawaiian singers and musicians perform a traditional Hawaiian wedding song. So whether you're celebrating an engagement, a honeymoon, or 50 years of marriage, this beautiful destination will fill your heart with love. I'm so glad we did this tour!

From the greeters to the servers to the Chief himself, everyone treated us like we were a part of the family. It felt like a big family reunion.
The food was delicious, and even if you're vegetarian or vegan like me, there are plenty of options! I had a mountain of food on my plate and didn't leave hungry.
The entertainment was my favorite part. Talented hula and warrior dancers performed traditional dances from various regions of Polynesia. So it was both entertaining and educational. I highly recommend this luau!

From the moment we got into the pickup truck, our Japanese guide was non-stop talking, to the point where I thought they might get tired. Since all the participants were Japanese, the vehicle was always filled with laughter. We were blessed with great weather and enjoyed a wonderful sunset. The images taken by the guide beautifully captured the Milky Way, and everyone was amazed and gasped in surprise. I suspected I had symptoms of altitude sickness and felt a bit uncomfortable, but the sunset and starry sky made it all worthwhile.

ピックアップの車内に乗り込んだ時から、日本人ガイドさんは、とにかくしゃべりっぱなし、疲れちゃうんじゃないかと思うほど。参加者は全員日本人だったので、車内は常に笑い声に包まれました。天候にも恵まれ、素晴らしいサンセットを楽しめました。ガイドさんが撮影する画像には、天ノ川がきれいに映り込んでおり、参加者全員が声を上げて驚いていました。高山病症状が疑われて、ちょっと苦しかったけど、サンセットや星空がそれを帳消しにしてくれました。

Two filming locations
It was a plan for tasting and lunch!
We were able to see everything at the two filming locations,
and I recommend visiting these two spots for fans of Jurassic World!
The first and second guides spoke Japanese, so I could understand the content well,
but the last tour was in English, so I didn't understand anything at all! (laughs)
The lunch was quite junky! (laughs)
Since we drove through the forest,
the dust was really something! (^^;)
After the tour ended,
when I wiped my face, it was completely black! (laughs)
I think this tour is recommended for movie lovers!

ロケ地巡り2箇所
試食、昼食のプランでした！
2箇所のロケ地巡りで全て見る事が出来
ジュラシックワールドのファンの方は
ロケ地2箇所行かれる事をお勧めします！
1つ目と2つ目は日本語を話せる方だったので
内容も把握でき良かったですが
最後のツアーのみ英語でしたので
まったくわかりませんでした！笑
昼食のランチはジャンキーな感じです！笑
森の中を走行するので
とにかく土埃がすごいです(^^;)
ツアー終了後
顔を拭いたら真っ黒でした！笑
映画好きの方にはお勧めなツアーかと
思います！

I was able to see the dorsal fin and tail fin for just a moment! It took a lot of patience to catch a glimpse of the whale pod.

背びれや尾びれが本当に一瞬だけ見れました！なかなかのクジラの群れを見ることが出来ず忍耐力が必要でした

Thank you so much!
This time, I finally got to see the sunset and starry sky after two attempts!
The guide was very kind and helped me with things unrelated to the tour, for which I am very grateful!
The sunset sinking into the sea of clouds was truly beautiful and will be a lifelong memory!
Of course, the tour was amazing (it's a bit disappointing when the weather doesn't cooperate, but you can get tickets for the next time!). The guides and the people who handled the phone calls were all fantastic!
Also, the bento was delicious!

本当にありがとうございました！
今回　二回チャレンジしてようやく夕日と星空が見れました！
ガイドの方もとても親切で　ツアーとは関係ない事までお世話になり
感謝感謝です！！
雲海に沈む夕日は本当にきれいで一生の思い出になりました！
ツアーが最高なのはもちろんの事（天候の都合で見れない時は少し残念ですが　次回のチケットが貰えます！）ガイドの皆さん　電話対応の方々
皆さん最高です！
あと　お弁当もおいしかったです～

Continuing from yesterday's tour (yesterday was Kilauea), I finally made it to Mauna Kea. To be honest, I’m a sunny weather girl, so as soon as I got on the tour bus, I confidently told the guide that today would be clear and the weather wouldn’t change! I guarantee it! Everyone, it’s thanks to me~ (^_-)☆

Before heading to the summit, we had lunch at the Onizuka Visitor Center (I forgot to take a photo). This was to prevent altitude sickness. I made sure to see the Silversword, which can be seen outside the Onizuka Visitor Center. This alpine plant can only be found in Hawaii and the Himalayas, and it blooms only once every several years.

The reason I wanted to join this tour was to see the Southern Cross and the Subaru Telescope. We were about to depart for the summit. Observatories from around the world lined up. The Subaru Telescope!!

And we enjoyed the scenery until sunset♪~ As the sun set, we got in the car for stargazing at 3,800 meters!!! I chose this tour because it was the highest altitude for observation. However, I realized before leaving the Big Island (tears) that it was three days before the full moon, which means the moonlight would make it hard to see the stars... But I was told that it’s not impossible to see the stars, and the moon would be beautiful, so I was glad I participated knowing that. If you want to see a beautiful starry sky, choose a new moon!!!

Indeed, it wasn’t that the stars were completely invisible, but they were a bit hard to see... However, the moon was incredibly beautiful. I was also surprised to see several artificial satellites shining. The guide was surprised too (+o+). They taught us the positions of the constellations and even shared myths. They answered my questions, like a astronomy expert? Amazing. My question? Of course, it was, “I want to see the Southern Cross.” I was told it can be seen at dawn... Oh dear. I thought maybe I should have gone for the sunrise tour. I’ll save the sunrise for next time. Next time, during the Kona Marathon... I’ll confirm I can see it before making a reservation.

This time, I stayed in Hilo with the sole intention of joining this tour, but I moved to Kona and returned from there.

昨日に引き続きツアーを申し込み（昨日はキラウエア）念願のマウナケアへ
何を隠そう私は晴れ女なのでツアーの車に乗ってすぐに今日はこのまま
快晴で天気は変わることないでしょう！保証しますとガイドさんの案内があり
ました。皆さん、私のおかげですよ～(^_-)☆
山頂へ行く前にオニヅカビジターセンターでお弁当を食べ（写真撮り忘れました。）高山病にならない為にですね。
シルバーソードをしっかり見て来ましたよ。オニヅカビジターセンターの外で見られます。ハワイとヒマラヤでしか見られない高山植物で花は十数年に一度しか咲きません。
このツアーに参加したかったのは南十字星を見たかったこととすばる望遠鏡が見たかったことです。
そろそろ山頂へ向け出発です。世界各国の天文台ずらり。すばる望遠鏡！！
そして夕陽が落ちるまで景色を堪能♪～
陽が落ち車に乗り、3800ｍで星空観測！！！
確かこのツアーが一番標高が高い場所での観測だったので決めました。
でもハワイ島出発前に気づいてしまったのです（涙）この日は満月の３日前
ってことは月明かりで星は見えずらい...でも星空は全く見られないわけでは
ないし月は綺麗に見られますよって言われ承知で参加していたのでよかった
です。綺麗な星空が見たいなら新月を選んでくださいね！！！
確かに星空は全く見えないわけではありませんでしたがやはり見えずらかったかなぁ～...でも月は最高に綺麗でした。あとビックリしたのは人工衛星のヒカリがいくつも見えました。ガイドさんにもビックリ(+o+)星座の位置を教えて頂き、神話まで話してくださいました。ちゃんと質問しても答えて頂き天文博士？素晴らしいです。私の質問？それば決まっていますよ！「南十字星がみたいのですが」明け方に見られるとのこと...トホホ。サンライズの方に
すればよかったかな～とは思いましたがサンライズは次の機会に。次はコナ
マラソン時に...見られることを確認してから予約しよっと
今回はこのツアーに参加したい一心でヒロに滞在していたのですが
コナまで移動しコナから帰国しました。

I had a grand time! The weather was perfect (partly cloudy) and it had rained the day before, so the trail wasn't dusty.

They did a good job teaching us how to drive the ATVs and making sure we were comfortable with the machines.

The guides had great personalities and they wanted to make sure we were having a good time.

Highly recommended. I took the 3-hour tour, which includes the view of Kipu Kai.

As soon as we set off, we spotted a pod of dolphins, which made me think we were off to a good start. However, after that, we didn't see anything and it ended there. Given the high expectations, it was disappointing not to see any whales, and the experience ended up being boring. Additionally, since we didn't see any whales, we were given tickets that could be used during the season starting the next day, but I felt there were high hurdles, such as the fact that the tickets were only valid until January of the following year and that reservations could only be made by phone (likely in English), with no option for online booking. I think it would be better if there were options like receiving a gift (such as a whale plush toy) or a re-ticket if nothing is seen.

出発早々、イルカの群れが見えて、幸先良いかと思いましたが、その後、何も見えず、終了しました。期待が高かった分、クジラが見えなかったため、つまらなく終わりました。また、クジラが見えなかったため、翌日からシーズン内で利用できるチケットをもらいましたが、翌日から年1月までであること、電話(おそらく英語)での予約のみでwebでの予約が出来ないなどハードルが高いと感じました。見れない場合、プレゼント(例えばクジラのぬいぐるみなど)か再チケットかを選べるなどあると良いと思います。

I was supposed to go see whales, but ended up only seeing dolphins?! When I asked others, it seems that whales are rarely seen at this time of year. It's a total rip-off, and I want my money back!!

クジラを見に行ったはずが、イルカを見ただけで終わり⁉️他の人に聞いたところ、今の時期は、めったにクジラは見られないらしい。ぼったくりも甚だしいし、お金を返してほしい‼️

It was a wonderful tour. Watching the sunset over the sea of clouds and the shadow of the Earth from the summit of Haleakalā, along with the countless stars, was truly overwhelming and breathtakingly beautiful. I believe it's not an exaggeration to say that if you haven't seen this, you might wonder why you came to Maui. The guide was also someone who approached this job with conviction and had a wonderful personality. If I come to Maui again, I would like to request this tour.

素晴らしいツアーでした。ハレアカラの山頂というとてつもない非日常的な場所で眺める日没の雲海や地球の影、そして満点の星々は正に圧倒的であり、息をのむ美しさでした。これを見ずしてマウイ島に何しに来たのかと言っても過言ではないと思います。またガイドさんも信念をもってこの仕事をされている方で、素晴らしい人柄でした。またマウイへ来ることがあればこちらでお願いしたいと思います。

We gathered quite early, and after boarding, we had to wait for over 30 minutes, which was tough with kids. However, we were happy to see a large group of dolphins right after we set sail, although we didn't spot any whales. I really appreciated how hard the captain worked to take us around and how the crew was considerate towards the children; it felt very thoughtful. After disembarking, the return journey was smooth, but I thought it would have been nice to have a little time for shopping.

随分早めの集合なのか、乗船してからぼんやり待つ時間30分以上でした。子連れには辛いですが、、出航してすぐにイルカの大群が見れてハッピーでしたが鯨みえず。
でも船長さんがかなり頑張ってあちこち飛ばしてくれたり船員の方が子供に気遣いしてくれているのはすごくわかり良心的だと思いました。
降りてからはさくさく帰路なんですがちょいとショッピングの時間が取れてもよいかもと思いました。

This was a great tour! The driver was very good & had a lot of knowledge about the island! We stopped at a Macadamia nut farm & we didn’t even know that it was a scheduled stop! It was pretty cool! We snorkeled & went kayaking as well! They were all exciting activities! You definitely don’t want to rush the experience!

I thought it would be lucky if I could see a whale, but about an hour after boarding, I encountered a mother and baby whale! I even got to see them jump, and they came quite close, which was incredibly exciting.
I also had the opportunity to experience cultural activities like making leis and playing the ukulele, and I was able to participate in two or three of them as time allowed!

クジラが見れたらラッキーだな、くらいの気持ちでいましたが乗船から一時間くらいでくじらの親子に会えました！ジャンプもみられ、かなり近くにクジラがきてくれて大興奮でした。
カルチャー体験もレイ作りやウクレレ、フラ時間の許す限り２個３個と体験させてもらえました！

It was a nice day today!

First, we were at the last hotel for pickup, and I ended up sitting in the back row. This remained unchanged until the end, which was puzzling. Usually, in such tours, you would expect to change seats for the return trip, and I thought the last pickup location would be the first drop-off, so I assumed I would sit in the front. Moreover, there was clearly an elderly person with us, which was a disappointing point.

The weather was great all the way to Mauna Kea. The lunch was a bento box with miso soup, and it was delicious. The cocoa after the meal was also a nice touch. It was cold up there, so I borrowed a jacket and pants to wear on the bus as we headed to the summit. (Honestly, it was a bit sad for the elderly person to sit in the back of the cramped bus.)

After overcoming rough roads, we finally reached the summit!!

Or so I thought, but the ranger told us to turn back... Why? It turned out the wind was strong, it was getting colder, and the road was freezing. We hurriedly took photos at the summit and began our descent. While that was understandable, I was waiting to take sunset photos somewhere, but to my surprise, we had already descended to 2000 meters and it was already sunset. We couldn't even take a photo of the Earth's shadow with just a brief explanation.

Then we climbed back up to Mauna Kea for stargazing. The stargazing itself was good.

I thought this tour title should be canceled, and I wondered if we would receive a ticket to retry within two years, but I was told that we wouldn't receive one after going to Mauna Kea. But we didn't get to see the sunset, did we?

What was even more disappointing was that we could download the photos taken after the tour, but another vehicle from the same company had taken photos of the sunset and the Earth's shadow... Our group had none, and the other photos taken were also lacking.

When I participated in a similar tour of the Grand Circle before, the guides were very knowledgeable about photography and took great pictures, so I might have had high expectations. However, the photography skills this time were disappointing.

Since this was a well-regarded Japanese company, I might have expected too much, but I believe that having better care prepared for situations where the sunset couldn't be captured would enhance overall satisfaction and make it more acceptable. I hope for improvements.

今日はいい天気！という日に参加しました。

まず最後のピックアップのホテルだったのですが、
最後列に座ることに。そしてこれは最後まで変わらなかったのは
なぞでした。
通常こういうツアーだといきと帰りは座る場所を変えたりすると
思いますし、普通最後のピックアップ場所は、最初のドロップオフなので
一番前に座るのかと思ってました。
しかもどう考えても最高齢者が一緒にいたのですが、、これは残念ポイント。

とってもいい天気でオニヅカまで。
お弁当は幕の内弁当とお味噌汁で、おいしかったです。
食後のココアもうれしかった。
ここで寒いので上着とズボンを貸していただき、
着用してバスにのって山頂を目指します。
（狭いバスの中、最高齢者が後ろに座るのは正直ちょっとかわいそうです）

悪路を超えてようやく頂上！！

と思ったら、レンジャーが戻れ、と、、、、。
なぜ？と思ったら風がつよくてさらに寒くなり道路が凍結するから。
とのこと。
頂上の写真をあわただしくとって下山。
それは仕方ないのですが、
どこかでサンセットの写真をとるのかとまっていたら、
まさかの2000メートルまで下がった上にすでに日没。
地球の影も簡単に説明だけで写真撮影できず。

そして再度星空観測のため、オニヅカまでのぼりました。
星空観測自体はよかったです。

これはツアータイトル不催行だな、と思って、よくここで書かれている
二年以内に再チャレンジの券をもらえるのかと思ったら、
オニヅカまでいったらもらえないとのこと。
でもサンセットみれてないのに？と思いました。

さらに残念だったのは、
写真をとっていただいたものを
ツアー後、ダウンロードさせてもらえるのですが、
もう一台行った同じ会社の車は、日没も地球の影も一緒に写真を
とっている、、、、。
私たちのグループはないうえに、他のとった写真もいまひとつ。

以前グランドサークルのこういうツアーに参加したときは
写真の撮り方もとてもガイドさんたちは詳しくて、
本当に上手にとってくださったので
それを期待していたのかもしれませんが、
写真の技術も残念でした。

日系で評判がいい会社だったので期待しすぎたのかもしれませんが、
もう少しサンセットがとれなかったときのケアを考えて用意しておく
ほうが、トータルの満足感もあがるし、納得できると思います。
改善を希望します。

Before participating in this tour, I was concerned about altitude sickness and the weather. To counter altitude sickness, we had dinner at the Onizuka Center, located at an elevation of about 2800m, which also helped with acclimatization. (The Hawaiian-style Japanese bento and warm miso soup were delicious!) After that, we headed towards the summit, and even after we set off, they kindly taught us how to breathe deeply, allowing us to avoid any symptoms of altitude sickness and enjoy the journey without issues.

Regarding the weather, it had been unstable recently, with stars sometimes visible and sometimes not, but fortunately, the day we participated was perfect! (In fact, the conditions were excellent!) Looking up from the base, there were clouds on the mountain, but apparently, this is a daily occurrence. When you think about it, we were climbing up to 4200m, which is quite high...

From the summit, we were able to see a beautiful sunset over the sea of clouds. After enjoying the sunset at the top, we descended a bit and did some stargazing. As it got darker, more and more stars appeared, and we even spotted 2 or 3 moving satellites during that time. The sunlight was reflecting well, and there was a breeze, making for excellent conditions. I've heard that the summer night sky is even more amazing, but I can't imagine how much more beautiful it could be than what we experienced! The guide used a pointer to explain things in a fun and engaging way, allowing us to learn more about astronomy.

While weather can be unpredictable, it turned out to be the best moment for us.

このツアー参加前に気になった事は高山病と天気について。
高山病対策は途中の標高2800m付近のオニヅカセンターにて高地順応を兼ね夕飯のお弁当を食べました。(このハワイアンチックな和風弁当＆温かい味噌汁は美味でした！)その後、山頂へ向かい出発してからも、丁寧に深呼吸の仕方を教えてもらい、道中高山病の症状も出ず問題なく過ごせました。
天気についても、ここ最近は不安定な天気で星空が見えたり見えなかったり、との事でしたが、私達が参加した日は幸いなことに問題ありませんでした。(と言うか、絶好のコンディション！)麓から上を見上げると山に雲が掛かっていますが、これは毎日のことらしい。考えてみれば、それよりも高い4200mまで登るんですよね。。
山頂からは雲海から沈む大変キレイな夕日が臨めました。山頂でサンセット堪能後、少し下に降りそこから天体観測。暗くなるにつれて星がどんどん多くなり、その最中に動く人工衛星も2〜3機確認できました。今日は太陽の反射光もよくあたり風もありで、絶好のコンディションだったようです。夏場の星空はもっとスゴいとのことですが、これ以上の星空ってどうなっちゃうの？？という程キレイな星空でした。夜空についてもポインターを使い面白おかしく説明していただき、天体について改めて学ぶ事が出来ました。
天候の運不運もあるのでしょうが、私達にとって最高のひと時となりました。

It was a pleasant cruise with great weather. Everyone on the deck was thrilled when a mother and baby whale spouted together! On the way back, a pod of dolphins appeared and put on an impressive spin show. The breakfast buffet was delicious, and I think it was enjoyable as a cruise even if we hadn't seen any whales.

天気もよく気持ちよいクルーズでした。クジラの親子がそろって潮吹きしたのでデッキのみんなは大興奮！
帰路にはイルカの群れが現れ、派手なスピンを見せてくれました。
朝食バイキングもおいしく、たとえクジラが見られなかったとしてもクルーズとして楽しめる内容だと思いました。

Our driver was prompt and very friendly. The hike itself was not as touristy as Diamond Head and very beautiful.

When we first got on our tour and the guide introduced himself I didn't hold out much hope of learning anything from someone who said they had only lived in Hawaii for 3 years but Steve turned out to be a fountain of knowledge. He made the day an extremely enjoyable one, so much information given and funny too. he should also release his soundtrack to the Circle Tour, he had a song for every stop it was awesome! My only criticism would be too many beach photo stops not enough time at Waimea Waterfall and Dole Plantation.

We participated in this tour at the request of my son, who loves dinosaur movies. The weather was great, and our whole family was overwhelmed by the scale of Hawaii's natural beauty (laughs). It was advertised as an English tour, but perhaps because there were many Japanese guests, the guide worked hard to explain everything in Japanese. I think it was very good for the kids.

The movie location tour was great, as we could see the actual filming site on the day. The jungle exploration involved bouncing along rough roads in a jeep bus. To be honest, I dozed off a bit during the final tour due to fatigue, but overall, it was a highly satisfying tour. We were able to feel the depth of Hawaii beyond just the ocean!

恐竜映画好きの息子のリクエストでこのツアーに参加。
天気も良くてハワイの大自然のスケールに家族一同圧倒されました（笑）
英語ツアーと書かれていましたが、日本人客が多かったためか、ガイドさんは日本語で一生懸命説明してくれました。子供たちにはとても良かったと思います。
映画ロケ地巡りはまさに当日撮影している現場も見ることができて良かった。
ジャングル探検は悪路をジープバスで揺れながら突き進む。最後の園内ツアーは正直それまでの疲労で少し眠ってしまいましたが、それでも満足度の高いツアーでした。
海だけでないハワイの奥深さを感じられました～

As a result, we didn't see any whales, but we did see dolphins! On the day of our reservation, I mistakenly went to the wrong bus stop, but they kindly allowed us to change to the next day. The staff were friendly, and although we didn't see any whales, we were satisfied with seeing the dolphins!

結果、クジラは見えませんでした。イルカは見れました！予約した当日、バス乗り場を間違えましたが快く次の日に変更してくれました。スタッフの方も新鮮で、クジラは見れませんでしたがいるかは見れて満足です！

The food was great and so was the entertainment. This luau was highly recommended to us by a bunch of people after we booked it so it was good to know we made a good choice and they were right.

The children had an experience. They said it was exciting and very fun to cross the canyon. They also mentioned that the horses were well-trained, which made them feel safe.

子どもたちが体験しました。渓谷を渡るのがエキサイティングでとても楽しかったようです。馬もよく慣れていて、安心だったといっていました。

The boat was a little bit too crowded, but the dinner experience and the view of Waikiki were great.
