Hawaii
I decided to check out the novelty of Cirque du Soleil in Waikiki. I approached the stage with the feeling that it would be a stylish circus. That was a huge misconception.
The performance, of course, was overwhelming with its brilliance, storytelling, and the thrill of not knowing what would happen next, along with a sense of warmth. It's true that when humans are moved, tears naturally come out.
I thought it was a bit pricey, but it was worth every penny.
ワイキキでのシルクドソレイユという物珍しさで見に行ってみることにしました。おしゃれなサーカスでしょという気持ちでのぞんだステージ。
とんでもない認識誤りでした。
パフォーマンスはもちろん、きらびやかさ、ストーリー展開、次に何が起こるか分からないドキドキ感、なごやかさもあって圧倒されました。
人間感動すると自然と涙が出るもんなんですね。
少し高額かと思いましたが値打ちは充分すぎるほどありました。
Choosing a seat can be quite a dilemma. While sitting in the front or center is preferable, I realized that there are various ways to enjoy the performance even from the back or the sides, as performe
席選びは大いに悩むところ。前や中央に越したことはありませんが、左右や上からも演者が現れるので後ろや端の席でも楽しみ方はいろいろあると思いました。
The guide takes photos for you during breaks at various points. Since it's electric, going uphill was a breeze. I was moved when I saw cows while going down the slope. The scenery at Kualoa is beautiful and can't be fully captured in photos. You should definitely experience it at least once!
所々で休憩を挟みガイドのかたが写真も撮ってくれます。
電動なので、上り坂も楽々でした。
坂道を下りながら牛が見えた時は感動しました。クアロアは景色が美しく写真では伝えきれません。ぜひ一度体験してください!
This is my third time going to Kualoa Ranch, but the lunch is not delicious no matter what I eat. This time, I saw someone eating cup noodles; I wonder if they can be purchased? If that's an option, I
クアロアランチに行くのは3回目ですが、
何食べてもお昼は美味しくないです。
今回はカップラーメンを食べてる方がいて、買えるのかな?その手があるなら次回行く時は間違いなくカップラーメンを選びます。
We were excited to learn about and taste the Maui Gold pineapples. They live up to their reputation! Super sweet and flavorful! We were disappointed that the workers had all gone home by 1:45pm on a Tuesday when our tour was. We would have liked to have seen them sorting the pineapples, etc.
If you go on this tour, book one of the two earlier times in the day rather than the 1:45pm tour.
The view from above was very nice, and it was a fun experience. There were three adults participating, and it was great to be able to go up in the sky together.
上から見る景色はとても良く、楽しい体験が出来ました。大人3人での参加でしたが、一緒に空に上がることが出来て良かったです
I am asked if I want to dip into the water.
水面にDipするか聞かれます
The Hawaiian buffet was very delicious, and the staff were very kind. Although there was a bit of an atmosphere that made it difficult to go for a second round at the buffet, the staff's friendly assistance allowed me to go without hesitation. Since I could also experience hula dancing, it became an opportunity to bond with foreign visitors through dance. The show, which traced the history of Hawaii and hula dancing, was a vibrant performance that made me truly feel that I was in Hawaii, lifting my spirits.
ハワイアンビュッフェはとても美味しく、定員さんもとても優しかったです。またビュッフェの2周目が行きにくい雰囲気でしたが、店員さんが優しく対応してくれたため我慢することなく行くことができました。フラダンスも体験できるため、ダンスを通して外国人の方とも仲良くなるきっかけになりました。ショーではハワイとフラダンスの歴史を辿りながらみる華やかなショーによって、改めてハワイに来ていることを実感し、気分が上がりました。
I felt that it’s better to actively go along with the cast's vibe. Also, I recommend coming hungry and bringing a camera!
積極的にキャストの方のノリに乗った方がいいと感じました。また、お腹を空かせておくこと、カメラを持っていくことをお勧めします!
We went horseback riding as a family of three. It was our first time riding in Hawaii, and I was a bit nervous at first, but the local guide was very friendly and kind. We even found some unexpected common interests and hit it off, becoming friends. The long hours of horseback riding were very valuable, as it's not something we can experience much in Japan, so it was a really great experience and we had a lot of fun!
家族3人で乗馬をしました。ハワイでの乗馬は初めてで最初は少し緊張しましたが、現地のガイドの方がとても気さくで優しく、意外な共通点もあったりして、意気投合しお友達になりました。
長時間の乗馬は、とても貴重で日本ではあまり経験出来ないので、とっても良い経験ができて楽しかったです!
Each horse has its own personality, so you never know what kind of horse you'll be riding—look forward to it!
馬さんは一頭ずつ個性があって、どんな子にに乗るのかわからないので、お楽しみに〜
I paddled several times to catch the waves, but it was so much fun and absolutely amazing. When I finally caught a wave, it was even better. The receptionist, who spoke Japanese very well, was incredibly kind. The commemorative photo and video package was $75, and it was a lot of fun.
波に乗るのに、何回も漕ぎますが楽しくて楽しくて最高です。
波に乗れた時は、もっと最高でした。受付の日本語の上手なお姉さん、最高に優しかったです。
記念写真+動画で75ドル、楽しかったです。
It's really fun, so give it a try! 😄
とっても楽しいので、やってみて下さい😄
Dear Mayu, thank you very much for the 5-star rating and review! We have one Japanese staff member at the reception named Maki. We look forward to your next visit!
Mayu様:5つ星のレイティングと口コミをして頂き、誠に有難うございました!受付の者は一人だけ「マキ」という名の日本人のスタッフがおります。またのお越しをお待ちしております!
We went out to sea on a motorboat, and before we knew it, we were ready to go. Just as I was thinking, "Oh, this is scary," we took off into the sky with a "Yahoo!" It was the best view ever, and I want to do it again. If you come to Hawaii, definitely try flying over Waikiki! 😄 The staff understands Japanese and are very kind. It became a wonderful memory. 😄
モーターボートで沖に行って、あっと言う間に準備完了。
え~怖いななんて思う間もなく、ヤッホーって感じで空に飛び立ちました。
最高の景色でした。またやりたいと思いました。
ぜひ、ハワイに来たらワイキキの空を飛んで見てください😄
スタッフも日本語も分かるし、とても優しいです。いい思い出になりました😄
It's not scary, so please give it a try. I recommend it! 🎵
怖くないので、体験してみて下さい。お勧めします🎵
I participated in Bon Voyage Kobe after being recommended by Mr. Tamura, and it was great to be able to see the show up close. The meals before the show also enhanced the atmosphere, making it an overall recommended experience.
ボン・ヴォヤージュ神戸 田村氏に勧められて参加しましたが 割と近くでショーが見れて良かったです。ショーが始まるまでの食事なども雰囲気を盛り上げてくれて全体的にお勧めのひと時です。
Thank you very much for bringing your family to the Rock-A-Hula VIP Waikiki Luau & Buffet Show. We are very pleased to hear that you enjoyed the luau and the overall entertainment. We also appreciate your very positive review! We sincerely look forward to welcoming you back when you visit Hawaii again.
この度はロッカフラ VIPワイキキルアウブッフェ&ショーにご家族ででご来場頂きまして、誠に有難うございます。ロッカフラのルアウそして、エンターテインメント全体的に楽しんで頂き大変嬉しく思っております。そして、大変ポジティブな口コミも有難う御座います!またハワイにお越しの際には、ご来場頂けますよう、スタッフ一同心よりお待ち申し上げます。
I participated in Bon Voyage Kobe on the recommendation of Mr. Tamura, and it was great to see whales up close in relatively nearby waters. Unlike Kochi and Okinawa, the waves were lower, so I didn't get seasick, which was a plus.
ボン・ヴォヤージュ神戸 田村氏に勧められて参加しましたが割と近海でクジラが近くで見れて良かったです。高知や沖縄と違って波も低めで船酔いしなかったのがよかったです
3月末だったので少し寒かったです。晴れ間に太陽が差しむと、とても綺麗な海で驚きました。浮島ラウンジで写真を撮るととても良かったです!
Aloha YN様
少し寒かったということですね。
3月はまだ水温が低いときもございます。浮島ラウンジと景色、きれいな海を楽しんで頂けて良かったです。
またお会いできますことを楽しみにいたしております。
Mahalo,
Team KBOS
Great course, the waterfall was breathtaking. Overall would do it again!
Really fabulous duo tour, our movie guide was so knowledgeable. Lunch was delicious.
This evening was very crowded, not our style but we did like the firework show from the boat.
Gorgeous scenery, the provider has a great route for this excursion! I could dream of these views.
You are tightly seated within other groups, but regardless of that the crew and entertainment are fantastic.
fun, good food, and right at hotel so we loved the ease!
Tour guide was very attentive and informative. The ferry ride was great but no chargers so make sure your prepared with things for your phones!
The Kualoa grounds are breath taking, and the fun added in with the atv was a perfect pair.
A great experience, as they say it is definitely a must do.
Harbor is a bit hard to figure out, but the tour was fabulous!
You get it all here! It is always nice to get a swim experience more personalized to the tour!!
My wife was worried about the two-hour horseback riding, but she said it was great afterward. It was my first time riding as well, and the staff's support was excellent, making it enjoyable. During the ride, the horse pooped and peed quite dramatically, and we walked among free-range cows, which was an experience you can't have in Japan.
2時間の乗馬を心配していた妻が、乗馬後良かったとの事。小生も初めての乗馬であったが、スタッフのフォローも良く楽しめた。乗馬途中お馬さんがうんこ💩、おしっこを豪快にしたり、放し飼いの牛の間を歩いたりと日本では出来ない経験でした。
After horseback riding, I have to eat lunch within an hour before the bus departs, but there is a long line at the restaurant's ordering window, so I can't find time to eat. If you're going to eat at
乗馬後バスの出発迄1時間の間に昼飯を食べなければならないけど、レストランの注文窓口が長蛇の列の為、昼飯食べる時間が取れない。レストランで食べるなら早目に行く事。あるいわ1時間のバス行程を我慢してワイキ
The tour was explained thoroughly in Japanese, and I had a great time.
After the tour experience, a young child was fussy on the bus, which was quite challenging. Then... I realized my wife's smartphone was missing.
I immediately contacted the tour company, and they responded kindly via email and phone. By the next morning, it was back in our hands.
I am filled with gratitude that the precious photos from the tour were returned to us. Thank you to all the staff who worked hard to help us.
ツアーは説明も日本語でしっかり説明してくださり、とても楽しかったです。
ツアー体験後、バスの中で幼少の子供がぐずり大変でした。
そして…慌てて対応してくれた、妻のスマホがないことがわかりました。
すぐにツアー会社さんに連絡をとりメール、電話連絡で丁寧に対応して頂き、翌日の午前中には手元に帰ってきました。
ツアー中の貴重な写真が戻ってきてくれたことに感謝の気持ちでいっぱいです。
ご尽力してくださった職員の皆様、ありがとうございました。
Depending on the weather and season, I recommend preparing warm clothing for when you come out of the sea.
Please make sure to check your smartphone carefully (sweat).
天候、季節もありますが海から上がった時は暖かい服装を準備される事をおすすめします。
スマートフォンはしっかり確認して下さい(汗)
I have been to Hawaii several times, but I had a feeling that the impression of Japanese people might not be good, so I somewhat avoided it. However, after actually going, I found that this was completely untrue. I enjoyed it just as much as any other activity.
This time, due to time constraints, I only visited the USS Missouri, but I would like to consider visiting other facilities next time. However, please note that tickets for the Arizona Memorial are on a waitlist online for same-day entry, so you cannot wait in line without a mobile phone.
The USS Missouri itself is full of highlights, and even rushing through, it took quite a bit of time. I was able to understand well what it was like when this ship was in active service.
何度かハワイには来ていますが、日本人に対する印象が良くないかもと思い、何となく敬遠していました。実際に行ってみて全くそんなことはありませんでした。他のアクティビティと何ら変わることなく楽しめました。
今回時間の制約があったので戦艦ミズーリのみの見学でしたが、次回は別の施設の訪問も検討したいです。ただし、アリゾナ記念館は当日の入場券はネットでの順番待ちなので携帯がないと順番待ちも出来ません。
実際のミズーリ号は見どころ満載で、駆け足で見て回っても結構時間がかかりました。この艦が現役だった頃の様子が良く分かりました。
I took the bus from Honolulu, which took just under an hour. I think the time is not much different from a tour bus. You can't bring your luggage during the visit, so I paid $7.00 to check it, but tha
私はホノルルから1時間弱かけてthe busを利用して行きました。時間的にはツアーバスと然程変わらないと思います。見学時には手荷物は持ち込めないので、$7.00掛払って預けましたが、ちょっと高いですね
I'm glad I went!
Once you buy a ticket, you can enter for three days!
Indeed, with such a wealth of experiences, it seems like it would take three days to fully enjoy everything.
Understanding the schedules for experiences and shows can be overwhelming for first-timers, so I recommend paying the additional fee for a guide; otherwise, it would be hard to enjoy efficiently and you might feel lost! I definitely recommend getting a guide!
The staff is mostly university students from the adjacent campus, creating a lively and pleasant atmosphere.
The guide who assisted us was great at explaining in Japanese, and thanks to them, we had a fantastic time! ✨
All the shows and experiences were fun!
With a ticket, you can enjoy everything for free except for meals and the fire show.
If you have kids, I think it's an incredibly fun place.
It was such a great place that I would want to visit for three days!
行ってよかった!
1回チケットを買ったら3日入れるらしい!
たしかに豊富な体験数なので、全制覇は3日かかりそう。
体験やショーのプログラム時間の把握は、豊富すぎて初めての人には厳しいのでガイド追加料金を払って、案内してもらわないと効率よく楽しめないし、わけがわからないと思う!絶対ガイドをつけることをおすすめ!
スタッフは隣接の大学生が8割とのことで、活気があって良い雰囲気だった。
ガイドをしてくれた方も日本語での説明が上手で、彼らのおかげで相当楽しめた✨
ショーも、体験も全部楽しかった!
チケットがあれば、食事とファイヤーショー意外無料で楽しめます。
子供がいたら、楽しすぎる場所だと思う。
3日間通いたいくらい良い場所でした。
Since the access is farther from Waikiki, it's better to schedule your plans according to the shuttle bus times from the cultural center (only one round trip). Taxis and Uber were hard to catch and be
アクセスがワイキキより遠いので、カルチャーセンターのシャトルバスの時間(往復1便のみ)に合わせてスケジュールを組んだ方が良い。
タクシー、ウーバーは地方ということもあり、つかまらなかったし高額になる。
My wife and I had a blast! CJ was super nice and the other hosts and guides were very helpful. The food and drinks were delicious and the performances and music were fantastic. 10/10 would come back again.0
This show is nothing short of incredible. We saw a circe show in Vegas and we weren't sure how this would show against that experience but WOW. Just amazing. As far as I can tell, every seat is a good seat. Do NOT be late!
My first trip to the Big Island of Hawaii was filled with uncertainties, but it was comfortable. There was a pickup at the hotel and meals included. Considering the cost of living, the price seems reasonable. They accurately took us to several attractions. The highlight was stargazing. The view was truly amazing. It was quite cold, but they provided warm clothing, so you can rest assured about that. English is quite difficult, so a certain level of proficiency is necessary.
初のハワイ島の旅で分からないことだらけでしたが快適でした。ホテルでのピックアップと、お食事付きです。価格は物価を考えれば妥当と思います。いくつかの名所を的確に回ってくれます。ハイライトは星空鑑賞。本当に素晴らしい景色でした。かなり寒いですが防寒具も用意されているのでそこもご安心ください。英語はかなり難しいので、ある程度のごりょくはひつようです。
BK was our tour guide and driver. I know now why he was Driver of the Year in 2023. Very knowledgeable on every facet of the tour. It was our first trip to Honolulu and he provided an excellent dialogue on everywhere we visited. (and even some we didn’t!) The bus was exceptionally clean and comfortable and our scheduled pickup was exactly on time at both ends of the tour.
