Star of Honolulu Sunset Dinner Cruise – 5-Course Steak & Lobster Menu, Polynesian Show & Live Music

SVP Director

Reviewed by: RJC

Having made all the arrangements online, I was a bit nervous because this was my wife's 50th birthday celebration and we had 23 family members in attendance. The boat, food, service and ambiance were beyond my expectations! I would highly recommend this Sunset Dinner Cruise.

Great job to all those at Hawaiian Activities that had anything to do with helping me to put on such a great celebration for my wife and family.

Best regards!

Waikiki Shuttle to Pearl Harbor Arizona Memorial & City Tour - Roberts Hawaii

Arizona Memorial always Good

Reviewed by: bj

We were picked up at a hotel very near ours, easy to find. We had a large comfortable bus. The bus driver provide great commentary during the drive to the Arizona. The Arizona memorial is always awesome. This is my third time, my families first. Great video presentation and museum prior to the boat ride.

Tour of the City afterwards was great and we took the option to be dropped off at Hilo Hatties. Great Hawaiian Store.

Thanks!

Great dinner cruise

Reviewed by: Mr. Anonymous

Had a great show and good food.

I had two people which have trouble walking. The trek from the bus drop off, through the mall, to the ship was a bit too long. Also, I had a guest who is very particular about how his meat is cooked and they did not even ask how you want your steak done. Could improve on those two points for the benefit of us old folks!

マウナケア山頂夕陽と星空観測ツアー ガイド撮影の一眼カメラ写真を無料ご提供!<夕食付き/英語ガイド>by マサシネイチャースクール

I was moved by how many stars I could see. 星、すごくたくさん見えて感動しました

Reviewed by: 新婚さん

This time, I visited the Big Island for a wedding and honeymoon, and participated in a tour on November 8th.

I joined my husband's family, and the guide, Yamachan, was amazing with his attentiveness, humor, and knowledge about the stars... everything was just perfect! Thank you for an emotional experience that I could never have in Japan.

I will never forget the Milky Way we saw that night!! Next time, I definitely want to go see the summer constellations. When I do, I will be sure to request Yamachan as my guide! Thank you very much.

今回は結婚式、ハネムーンが目的でハワイ島を訪れ、11/8のツアーに参加しました。

夫の家族と参加しましたが、ガイドのやまちゃんの気配り、面白さ、星の詳しさ・・・などなど、最高でした!日本では決して味わえない、感動的な時間をありがとうございます。

あの時見た天の川は忘れません!!今度はぜひ夏の星座を見に行きたいと思います。その際はガイドの指名はもちろんやまちゃんで!ありがとうございました。

ハレアカラ山頂 夕日鑑賞+星空観測ツアー 1名~参加OK!グループや家族連れにおすすめの貸切プランあり<午後/日本語ガイド>

The best spot on Maui. マウイ島の一番のスポット

Reviewed by: めぐみ

On November 5th, we participated as a newlywed couple. Originally, we were scheduled to join on the 4th, but there was unusually heavy rain. However, the person in charge contacted us in the morning and said it would depend on the weather the next day. We were anxious about the possibility of cancellation, but despite the heavy rain in Oahu, miraculously, Maui had clear skies, and we were able to participate on the 5th.

The tour had a total of three participants, including one other participant. On the way to Haleakalā, we were taken to have a snack and made some stops along the way, which eased our nerves as we headed up the mountain. The weather that day wasn't great, and we couldn't see the sunset.

As for the starry sky, we patiently waited while enjoying our meal for the clouds to clear, and finally, we were able to see a 360-degree view of a starry sky like we had never seen before! The stories shared were fascinating, and it was truly a heart-clearing experience. I felt it would be great for students and newlyweds.

I want to see it again. If you go to Maui, you absolutely must see it!!! Even now that we are back in Japan, we are both raving about it.

Thank you very much!

11月5日に新婚夫婦で参加させていただきました。
本当は4日に参加の予定が、珍しくも大雨。でも担当の方から朝掛けに連絡があり、翌日の天気次第でという対応をいただきました。キャンセルになる不安もありましたが、天気予報も当日のオアフも大雨の中、奇跡的にマウイは快晴になり、5日に参加ができました。
ツアーは他の参加者さん1名との計3名での参加でした。
ハレアカラに上るまえに、道中、おやつを食べに連れて行ってくれたり、寄り道をしながら、緊張もほぐれて、山へ。
この日は雲行きがあまりよくなく、夕日は見れませんでした。
星空のほうはというと、雲が抜けてくれるのをじっくりとご飯を食べたりしてまっていて、遂に360度、見たことのない星空をみることができました!
お話も興味深いものがあり、本当に心が澄み渡るような体験でした。
学生の人や、新婚さんにおすすめだなぁと感じました。
また、見たいです。
マウイに行ったら、絶対に見たほうが良い!!!
と、日本に帰った今でも2人で絶賛しています。

ありがとうございました!

Using the mountaintop camera and satellite images, I can roughly predict the night weather, so if I know it's going to rain, I avoid climbing. I don't want to blame the weather, as I'm not a craftsman, haha. It's everyone's very precious time, after all.

On this day, we really persevered, didn't we? Never giving up is important, in everything. I'm looking forward to seeing you again in Maui!

山頂カメラとサテライト映像で夜の天気がおおよそ予想がつくので
雨とわかったら登らないようにしています。
天気のせいにしては☆職人ではないので、、笑
皆さんのとても大切な時間ですからね、、

諦めないこと、、何ごともです。
またマウイでお目にかかれる事を楽しみにしていますよ~!

ワイキキトロリー ワイキキ巡回トロリーまたはミニバス 乗り放題1・4日間券(アラモアナ、ダイアモンドヘッド、カカアコ、東海岸など)

If you're using the Blue Line, I highly recommend it! ブルーラインを利用するなら!お薦め!!

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

I was considering that I might not need to use the trolley just around Waikiki, but since I wanted to go to Diamond Head, I thought, why not! So I signed up for the unlimited ride pass for four days. The Blue Line has a long course that takes three hours to complete one loop, but they stop for 15 to 25 minutes at photo spots, which is a nice service, making it feel like a little sightseeing bus. If the driver is a fun person, you really feel like you've gotten a great deal. Most visitors to Hawaii arrange their trips through travel agencies, so I think many will have the unlimited trolley tickets, but I would definitely recommend it for those traveling independently.

ワイキキ周辺だけならトローリーの利用は必要ないかもと考えていたのですが、ダイヤモンドヘッドへ行きたかったので、どうせなら!と思い4日間乗り放題を申し込みました。
ブルーラインは3時間で1週する長いコースですが、撮影スポットでは15~25分停車してくれるなどのサービスがあり、ちょっとした観光バスでした。
運転手さんが楽しい方なら、本当に得をした気分になりますよ。
ハワイを訪れるほとんどの方が旅行会社を通しての手配なので、トローリー乗り放題のチケットを持っていらっしゃると思いますが、個人旅行の方にはお薦めしたいと思います。

It was amazing. 最高でした

Reviewed by: RYUSEN

On my fourth trip to Hawaii, I visited the Big Island for the first time. The purpose was golf and Mauna Kea. The sunset and scenery at Mauna Kea were breathtaking. Additionally, our guide, Mr. Yamamoto, was excellent with his stories, explanations, and attentiveness to guests (we hit it off since we are both from Kansai). It became a wonderful memory.

Also, my wife forgot her sunglasses on the bus, but they were kindly delivered to our hotel. We are very grateful. If the opportunity arises, this is definitely a tour I would like to take again.

4度目のハワイ旅行で、初めてハワイ島を訪れました。
目的は、ゴルフとマウナケアでした。マウナケアでの夕陽や景色の感動的でした。また、ガイドのヤマモトさんのお話や説明、客に対する気配りも、最高でした。(同じ関西出身でウマがあいました)
とても素敵な思い出となりました。

オアフ島 熱帯雨林ハイキング 初心者~中級者向け <英語ガイド>

The waterfall... 滝が・・・

Reviewed by: たぬちん

Although it was an English-only tour, I participated alone. I was the only Japanese person, and there were about ten travelers from the mainland United States.

As we made our way to the waterfall, we received very detailed explanations about the trees and other aspects of the rainforest. Along the way, we had to jump over rivers and navigate difficult terrain, which required everyone to help each other out and cooperate. It might be tough if you can't communicate in English to some extent.

The water at the destination waterfall was disappointingly low, which was the only letdown. However, the staff was very kind, and a sense of camaraderie developed among the participants. Overall, I thought it was an interesting tour.

英語のみのツアーと言うことでしたが、1人で参加しました。日本人は私だけ、あとはアメリカ本土からの旅行者が10人くらい。
熱帯雨林の中を木々などの説明をとても詳しく受けながら、滝を目指すのですが、途中川を飛び越えたり、足場が悪かったりと参加者みんなが助け合い、それぞれの協力が必要です。ある程度英語で意思の疎通ができないとつらいかもしれません。
目的地の滝の水が切ないほど少なく、それだけが期待はずれでしたが、スタッフはとても親切だし、参加者の連帯感などが生まれ、おもしろいツアーだと思いました。

A lifetime of memories 一生の思い出

Reviewed by: 真心者

I've been to Hawaii several times, but this was my first visit to the Big Island.

Of course, the main purpose was Mauna Kea!!

The cold was even more than I had imagined, but the satisfaction and emotional impact exceeded my expectations.

Such scenery is something you definitely can't see in Japan. I've traveled to various places abroad, but this has truly become one of the places I’m glad I visited.

Although it was a long day, listening to the guide's stories made me feel neither tired nor bored at all. The guides, who feel a deep reverence for Mauna Kea, provided guidance that was nothing short of divine.

It was a shock that felt like a double punch!!

Thank you, I want to go again.

ハワイには何度か来てますが、はじめてハワイ島に足を伸ばしました。

もちろんマウナケアが目的!!

寒さも想像を上回ったのですが、その満足度、心のインパクト度は激しく予想を上回りました。

あんな風景、日本じゃ絶対見れない。というか海外旅行も色々行ってますが、本当に行ってよかったと思える場所のひとつとなりました。

1日長時間ですが、ガイドさんの話を聞いていると、まったく疲れや退屈を感じません。マウナケアを神聖と感じ、ほれ込んでいるガイドさんたちの案内はもはや神技でした。

なんだかダブルパンチをもらったほどのショック!!

ありがとう、また行きたいです。

Reviewed by: 山田雅人

Hello,

I returned to Japan with many wonderful memories after watching the setting sun and the star-filled sky at Mauna Kea.

Tomorrow, I'm heading to Los Angeles. I went to Hawaii to refresh my mind. Experiencing the slow-paced Hawaiian time and the warmth of the people helped me relieve my stress, and I had very fulfilling days.

I spent a month on the Big Island, but I really wanted to go to Mauna Kea. I applied to several companies, but was turned down because of my wheelchair. By chance, I called a nature school thinking it was a long shot, and I remember being surprised at how easily they accepted me.

The majestic nature of Mauna Kea was a precious experience and a memory I will never forget. It was an emotional day, touched by the kindness of the Japanese people I was with and Mr. Yamamoto.

Having someone kindly carry me and seeing numerous stars through the telescope for the first time became a lifelong memory for me.

After a year of training in graduate school, I am seriously considering going to Kona.

Thank you so much for everything. I will definitely contact you the next time I go, so please take care of me then.

ハロー

マウナケアでの沈み行く太陽と空いっぱいの星を見る事が出来て、よい思い出いっぱいで日本にかえってきました。

明日、ロスに向かいます。
ハワイには心の洗濯の為に行きました。ゆっくりとながれるハワイアンタイムと人々の暖かさに触れて、ストレスを取り去り、とても充実した日々でした。

1ヶ月ハワイ島にいたのですが、どうしてもマウナケアに行きたくて、数社に申し込んだのですが、車椅子ということで断られ、偶然、手に入れたネイチャースクールにダメでもともとと思い電話しました。余りにも簡単に受け入れてくださって、呆気に取られていたのを覚えています。

マウナケアの雄大な自然は大切な経験で、一生忘れない思い出です。同乗していた日本人の方々と山本さんの優しさに触れ、感激の1日でした。

重い自分を快く担いでくださり、望遠鏡からの数々の星を初めてみた事は自分にとって一生の思い出になりました。

あと1年、大学院での研修後は本気でコナに行く事を考えています。

本当に色々とありがとうございました。
今度、行く時にも必ず連絡しますので宜しくお願い致します。
