I first visited the Caves of the Ferns 20 years ago, and this was my second time. Since I was participating alone, I had assumed that the tour boat would have an English guide. However, on this day, there was a boat with a Japanese guide, and I was able to join that one. It was a chartered boat for a group of Japanese tourists, so I was lucky. Unfortunately, I couldn't enter the Caves of the Ferns. A new observation deck was established, and I had to view it from there, which was disappointing. However, the explanations from the Japanese guide made the situation clear, and I understood it well.
シダの洞窟は20年前にはじめて行き、今回が2回目でした。一人参加のため遊覧船は英語ガイドになると観念していました。ところがこの日は日本語ガイドの船が出るのでそちらに乗せてくれました。日本人の団体のためにチャーターした船でした。ラッキーでした。シダの洞窟には入れませんでした。展望台が新設されてここから眺めることになり残念でした。日本語ガイドの説明で事情がよくわかり納得でした。

This time, we went to Hawaii for the first time with our parents from both families to hold a local wedding ceremony. We wanted to create some memorable experiences to express our gratitude to our parents during our free time, so we booked a vow renewal and sunset cruise. We enjoyed dinner while cruising, watched a Hawaiian show, and had photos taken for each couple, allowing us to relax and enjoy our time.
The vow renewal ceremony itself was a first for our parents, and they seemed a bit shy about the idea of participating in such a ceremony. However, thanks to the open atmosphere of Hawaii, it all turned into a wonderful memory. By the way, I explained the vow renewal to our parents while we were having appetizers.
The ceremony could have been conducted for each couple separately, but we were able to do it for two couples at the same time. One slight disappointment was that our parents (and I) didn't understand much English, and the ceremony felt a bit rushed (perhaps because it was in between dinner?). Nevertheless, it was a valuable experience.
For now, the surprise was a success!!
The three-star atmosphere was lively, so it might be suitable for families. The meal portions and drinks were generous, and we left feeling full. The vow renewal could be a great surprise gift.
今回、現地挙式を行うため私達+私達両家の両親で初ハワイへ行ってきました。
フリータイムを有効に使って、何か両親への感謝を伝えられる思い出作りを???と・・・今回のバウ・リニューアル&サンセット・クルーズを申し込みました。クルーズをしながらディナー、ハワイアンショーもみれて、カップルごとに写真も付いて、ゆったりとした時間を楽しめました。
バウ・リニューアルという儀式自体、両親達は初耳、まさか自分達がそんな儀式をするなんて
・・・ちょっと照れ臭かったみたいですが、ハワイの開放的な雰囲気のおかげで、全ては良い思い出になりました。ちなみに両親達にバウ・リニューアルについて、前菜を食べながら説明しました。
儀式はそれぞれの夫婦ごとに進めることもできたのですが、2カップル同時にさせていただきました。ちょっと残念なこととすると、親は(私も)そんなに英語が理解できなかった+儀式的にはあっという間(ディナーの合間なので?)ということでしょうか。でも、貴重な経験ができました
。
ひとまずサプライズ成功です!!
3スターは賑やかな雰囲気だったのでファミリーに向いているかもしれません。食事量も飲み物も2杯付いてお腹がいっぱいになりました。
バウ・リニューアルについては、サプライズプレゼントにいいかもしれませんょ。

Emotionally, however, the feeling of disappointment that the Arizona Memorial was not opened and still under construction was overwhelming. And, the price for the One Day Passport was not reduced for this inconvenience.

One of the purposes of my visit to the Big Island was this tour, which provided satisfaction as expected. We were blessed with good weather, and I was able to take photos of the sunset right above the Subaru Telescope at the Mauna Kea Observatories. During the stargazing, I even captured the red glow of the distant Kilauea Volcano in my photos. I also appreciate the humor and hospitality of our excellent guide, Mr. Matsuzaki from Masashi Nature School.
ハワイ島を訪れた目的のひとつであったこのツアーは、期待通りの満足を与えてくれました。天候にも恵まれ、国立天文台ハワイ観測所(すばる望遠鏡)の真上に沈む夕陽を写真に撮り、星空観測では、遠くキラウエア火山の赤い光も写真に捉えることが出来ました。

At the airport, a Japanese guide welcomed us. However, the pickup car took a long time to arrive. The guide also seemed a bit troubled. When the car finally arrived, the driver didn't seem to know which hotels to go to, and he kept going back to check and ask. There may have been some trouble, but I would appreciate a bit more confirmation in advance.
空港では日本人ガイドの方が出迎えてくれました。しかし、迎えの車がなかなか来ない。ガイドさんも少し困ってる様子。やっときた車の運転手さんはどこのホテルに回るのか把握できていないようで、何度も確認しに行ったり聞いてきたり。何かトラブルがあったのかもしれませんが、もう少し事前の確認をお願いしたいです。

This was one of the best tours we have ever attended. We got to see how the pineapple makes it from a small plant, and on the table. The tasting of the different pineapples in the field was wonderful, and there is no way to get the taste of a fresher pineapple than hand picked in the field, cut it and eat it in the field.

We used this for our honeymoon trip.
Since our hotel was the first drop-off location, we were on the bus for about 20 minutes!
Even if it hadn't been the first stop, I think it would still be quite fast.
For around 1,700 yen, I'm satisfied with this.
However, I gave it four stars because we had to wait a bit for the bus to arrive.
