It was an exhilarating show that was completely different from what I had imagined a Polynesian show would be! First of all, the power of the Polynesian show was incredibly moving. And the rock show was the best. Michael's singing and dancing were a sight to behold! After the show, there was a greeting and photo opportunity. I took a picture with Michael and shook his hand, but I was shaking all over, and I could tell he was performing despite being exhausted, which brought me to tears. It's a soulful show that I highly recommend everyone to see!

自分が想像していたポリネシアンショーとは一線を画す大興奮ショーでしたよ！
まず、ポリネシアンショーの迫力は凄く感動しました。
そして、ロックショー、最高でした。マイケルの歌、ダンス、一見あり！
ショーの後、グリーティング、写真撮影出来ました。
マイケルと写真撮影して握手してもらいましたが、全身震えていて、満身創痍でパフォーマンスしているのが分かり、涙が出ました。
そんな魂のショー、是非皆さん観てください！

Excellent service and experience! 100% recommended

I participated in a group lesson starting from the afternoon of the day I arrived. First, we received an explanation and safety briefing through a video in English indoors. After that, we walked to the beach in front of the Honolulu Zoo, where the instructor provided guidance on land before we entered the water. However, since the instructor's explanations were also in English, it might be a bit challenging if you don't understand English at all.

Other participants were also from Canada and the mainland, so I was able to experience a bit of a study abroad atmosphere through English communication. The waves were not too big, making them just right for beginners. With the instructor's help while riding, everyone was able to stand up and ride the waves.

Since being able to swim was a prerequisite, it was a bit tough to paddle back and forth to the spot to catch the waves, but thanks to that, I was able to sleep soundly from the first day and managed to avoid jet lag afterward.

到着した日の午後からグループレッスンに参加しました。
まず室内にて英語による動画で説明、注意点の講習を受けた後にホノルル動物園前のビーチに徒歩で移動、そこでインストラクターから海に入る前に陸上で指導して頂きますがインストラクターの方の説明も英語なので、英語が全く分からないと少しキツいかもしれません。
他の参加者もカナダや本土から来ていた方で、英語によるコミュニケーションなので少しプチ留学の気分を味わう事ができました。
波はそれほど大きくなく初心者にはちょうど良い強さでインストラクターの方にライドする際に押してもらえば参加者の全員が立って波に乗る事ができました。
泳げる事が前提なので自分自身で波に乗る場所までパドリングで往復する必要があるため少し大変でしたが、おかげで初日からぐっすり眠れその後時差ボケせずに過ごすことができました。

Overall is very good. The lobster is very tasty, the steak is great, the view to the fire work is amazing, the crews are super friendly, the dance performance is fantastic. We enjoyed the dance at the end with a lot of laughs & funs together. Highly recommended.

We gathered in the afternoon and made our way to the summit while taking breaks along the way. To avoid altitude sickness, we ascended slowly, and near the top, they flexibly adjusted our location based on the weather and the number of tourists. Although it was almost a full moon, we could see many stars, and the explanation using the telescope was very interesting. Next time, I would like to go during a different season, preferably close to a new moon.

You can borrow a jacket and gloves similar to ski wear, which provides considerable warmth, but it's also good to bring a down inner layer, a hat that covers your ears, and socks that don't expose your ankles. My husband wore down pants as well, so he was even more insulated from the cold.

午後集合．途中で休憩しながら頂上へ．高山病にならないよう，ゆっくりとあがってもらい，頂上付近では，天候や観光客の状況から，柔軟に場所を変えて対応してくれました．ほぼ満月に近い日程でしたが，星はたくさん見えましたし，天体望遠鏡での説明も，興味深かったです．今度は，違う季節で，かつ新月に近い時期に行ってみたいです．
スキーウェアのような上着と手袋をお借りできるので，かなりの防寒になりますが，ダウンのインナー，耳が隠れる帽子，足首が出ない靴下を持っていくとよいです．夫はダウンのパンツも履いたので，さらに寒さ知らずでした．

Beginners can experience this activity at their own level alongside other participants. For over an hour, you will ride slowly while enjoying views of the ocean from Kohala Mountain and Hills, and interacting with the horses. It's truly enjoyable.

I think Japanese visitors might get confused during the initial check-in. This is because the parking gate is closed, and you have to open it yourself and close it again. There is no guidance for this.

初心者でもレベルに合わせ、他の参加者と一緒に体験できます。1時間以上、コハラ山・丘を海を見ながら、そして馬と話しながらゆっくりと乗馬します。本当に楽しいです。

最初の受付は日本の方は迷うと思います。なぜなら駐車場のゲートが閉まっていて、自分で開けてまた閉めなけばなりません。その案内はありません。

I'm glad they provided raincoats for us. My lower legs inevitably got wet, but I brought a change of clothes just in case, so it wasn't a problem. (laughs)

レインコートも貸して頂けるので良かったです。膝から下はどうしても濡れてしまいますが。
念のため、着替えも持参していたので問題なかったです。(笑)

I visit Hawaii regularly every year. I have participated in various sailing activities, but Holokai Catamaran has been the best, so this is my third consecutive year joining them.

The most wonderful aspect is, of course, the view of Waikiki from the sea, but even more so, the friendly attitude and service spirit of the crew. They offer unlimited drinks and provide timely refills, which reflects the hospitality that Japanese people appreciate, and it makes me happy.

There are many sailing options in Waikiki, but this one is the best. If you're considering it, definitely go and check it out!

毎年HAWAIIには定期的に伺います。
いろいろなセーリングに参加していましたがホロカイカタマランが一番良かったので今回で3年続けて参加させて頂きました。
何よりも素晴らしいのは当然海から見るワイキキの風景ですが、それにもましてクルーのフレンドリーな対応やサービス精神です。
飲み放題ですがタイムリーにお代わりの飲み物を提供してくれたり日本人が喜ぶもてなしの精神か伺え嬉しくなります。
ワイキキには数多くセイリングがありますが
ココが一番です。
ご検討の人は是非行って見てください。

First, I was taught how to stand on the beach, and since we were facing the ocean, even beginners were able to ride the waves! There were multiple instructors watching over us, so I felt safe while having fun!

はじめに浜で立ち方を教えてもらって、海に向かうので、初心者でも波にのる事ができました！先生も複数人いて、全体を見てて貰えるので安心して遊ぶ事が出来ます！

It was not crowded because it was the rainy season, and there was no waiting at all. However, it didn't rain during the day, so I was able to enjoy it thoroughly!

雨期だったため空いていて、全く並びませんでした。でも、日中は雨が降っていなかったので、十分に楽しむことが出来ました！

We drove buggies while touring the highlights of Kualoa Ranch. Since all participants were adults, the guide shared a lot of interesting historical background.

バギーを運転しながらクアロアランチの名所を巡りました。
参加者が全員成人であったためガイドさんが歴史的な背景の話をよくしてくださりました。

We took this tour with Jason. It was amazing. Jason, a local, was fantastic. He was personable, engaging, entertaining and extremely knowledgeable about all aspects of the tour, and Hawaiian culture and lifestyle. The views speak for themselves and are breathtaking.
Highly recommend this excursion to anyone who is interested in views, astronomy, and something different to do, when on vacation. I thoroughly enjoyed this adventure and look forward to the next time.

We had a wonderful time at the luau, met nice people at our table as well. Was a little disappointed with the food as I was expecting a more traditionally cooked food. The entertainment was first class.
Overall we had a wonderful time and would do it again.

This was me & my partners second time doing this adventure, first time was back in 2021. We had great instructors both times but this time we got taken on a slightly longer path that was even more beautiful & scenic than the last. We had a couple friends with us this time that we recommended the tour too & they absolutely loved it as a highlight of their trip! Ticket price had slightly increased since the last time we came but definitely worth it!

Heavenly sea. I went with high expectations. The beauty of the sea is truly wonderful. You can definitely encounter turtles. While snorkeling, I experienced a fantastic view with many beautiful fish swimming around the coral. However, the wind is strong on the sea, and during the rainy season, it rains quite a bit, making it very cold. Since you're on the sea, you can't warm up. I wouldn't recommend going on rainy days during the rainy season. If it's a sunny day, I think you can have a wonderful experience.

天国の海。期待大でいきました。
海の綺麗さはホントに素晴らしい。
亀にもしっかり遭遇出来ます。シュノーケリングは、珊瑚の周りに沢山の綺麗な魚が泳いでいて、素晴らしい眺めを体験できました。
ただ、海の上は風が強く、雨季は結構長く雨が降るので、寒くて寒くて。海の上なんで暖もとれず。雨季の雨の日はお勧め出来ないですね。
晴れあがった日であれば、素晴らしい体験が出来ると思います。

It was my first time horseback riding, but the explanation was only about three minutes long in a video. I was quickly put on a horse and we started. It was raining that day, and the horse seemed to have difficulty walking. An instructor was present, but since it was in English, I obviously couldn't understand what they were saying. They were giving various instructions quite loudly. I rode for about two hours straight, and my back and butt hurt, while the instructor was shouting next to me, and I got soaked from the rain. It was truly an exhausting first experience.

初めての乗馬でしたが、説明は動画の3分くらい。すぐ馬に乗せられてスタート。
当日は雨もあり、馬も歩きにくそうでした。
インストラクターが付くのですが、英語なんで、
当然何言ってるか分からず？
結構大声で、いろいろ指示してくる。
約２時間乗りっぱなしで、腰、お尻は痛いし、横でインストラクターは、喚いてるし、雨でビショビショになるし、ホント疲れだけが残った初体験でした。

Enrich your life by learning sustainability by a local resident living in the valley of the kings. The all terrain vehicle takes you steeply down to the valley to your taro fields and exotic tropical homesteads that only locals reside. This experience is a must!

It was a very enjoyable show. The composition was good, and it had a Hawaiian feel, which made me satisfied. Since it's an indoor theater, the acoustics and visibility are great, and the seats are spacious, which I think is nice.

とても楽しいショーでした。構成もよくハワイらしさもあり満足です。
屋内のシアターなので音響、見通しもよく席もゆったりしているので良いと思います。

I participated in this activity on my honeymoon! Although it was low tide in the afternoon session, I was able to see turtles! Coming back from Hawaii, this was the activity that made me feel like I experienced something Hawaiian! However, I think it's better to be prepared for swimming for about an hour to enjoy it more!

ハネムーンで参加しました！
午後からの部で引き潮ではありましたが、亀を見つけることができました！
ハワイから帰ってきて、ハワイぽいことをしたと思えるのはこのアクティビティでした！
ただ、1時間ほど続けて泳ぐことになるのはあらかじめ覚悟しておいた方が楽しめると思います！

At the reception, it was almost 100% in English, and it’s not an exaggeration to say that Japanese was hardly understood, but somehow we managed. With our phones, gestures, and broken English, we made it to the buggy ride. With goggles and bandanas, we were ready to go!

The buggy experience, while enjoying the filming spots and the grandeur of Hawaii, was incredibly fun. Unfortunately, the guide's stories at each photo spot seemed very interesting (the foreign guests were laughing and interacting a lot), but they spoke so quickly that our phones were of no help. If we had understood, it would have been 200% more enjoyable. Still, it was nice that the guide made an effort to communicate with us through gestures. Next time, I hope to at least understand some American jokes!

受付からバギーの説明までほぼ英語100パーセントと言っても過言でない程日本語は通じませんでしたが、何とかなるものですね。携帯とジェスチャーとカタコトの英語で何とかバギーに乗るまではたどり着きました。ゴーグルとバンダナでいざ出発！
映画の撮影スポットやハワイの雄大さを満喫しながらのバキー体験は面白さ満点でした。悲しいかな、それぞれの写真スポットでのガイドの方のお話が、とても面白そうなのですが(外国の方はとても笑ってやり取りしていたので)、如何せん早口で携帯などは役にたたず、それが分かったら200パーセント面白かったでしょう。それでも私たち家族を気遣って、ジェスチャーで話しかけてくれるのは嬉しかったです。次回はせめてアメリカンジョークが分かるくらいになって行きたいものです。

The day was a little wet from the morning rain, but it did not prevent us from having a fun day ATVing at North Shore Stables. Just prepare yourself to get dirty!!
We caravaned on the farm our guides took us along the coast but mostly through the farmstead. We stopped and met their farmers (cows) and their goats. Very delighted to find out that this company is doing what they can for the environment and turning much of their dollars to restoration! Kudos to NSS and thank you for a very fun time!!

Really enjoyed the fish and the fish tunnel, corals were awesome. Learning new things about fish I thought I knew about was amazing. The little alcoves you turned into was interesting.

My wife and I had a great time and the tour guide was very knowledgeable, informative, and hilarious! Very fun!

Such a fun night. The food options were delicious. The activities and vendors were interesting and informative. The show is very entertaining and fun to watch. The host, Paul, was fantastic and he made it special for my fiancé and l as he heard we got engaged a few days prior. We got to get our own dance along those who were celebrating anniversaries. That was such a sweet surprise and totally unexpected. I highly recommend luau! The transportation was also fantastic and super easy.

It’s not a private tour. We had another couple with us. I sat in the front seat and my husband in the 3rd row. The other couple sat in the second row. The driver was awesome! Showed us around town and took us to the places to see. He was very accommodating to our stop requests. Very personable and talkative. Very knowledgeable of the history of Lana’i. Not a 4x4… just a suburban but lots of fun! I would recommend it for your day trip

We were so lucky to been taken out just before the weather went bad, these guys knew what was safe and made sure we got a go but weren’t at any risk with bad weather. The boat ride was so fun and an adventure across the water in itself! My kids flew and had a ball. We then got the photos and they were amazing! 120 shots all transferred to our phones. All the staff were friendly and relaxed.

I was able to make a reservation without any issues even at the last minute. It was a bit scary, but I made great memories in Hawaii. All the staff spoke English, but I was able to understand them somehow, which was good.

直前でも問題なく予約ができました。
少し怖かったですが、ハワイのいい思い出ができました。
スタッフ方は全員英語でしたが、なんとなく理解ができよかったです。

The North Shore was amazing, and as expected for a championship event, the huge waves were impressive. I even encountered a sea turtle while paddleboarding. It was a great tour.

初ノースショア、さすがチャンピオン大会が開催されるだけありもの凄い大波に感動。SUP中にウミガメにも遭遇。良いツアーでした。

I previously went horseback riding at Kualoa Ranch, and it became one of my favorite places, so I returned. Riding around in a buggy through nature is truly amazing! We stopped at movie filming locations where they provided explanations in English. Since you'll get really dirty with dust, I recommend wearing clothes you don't mind throwing away! (laughs)

クアロアランチでは過去乗馬をしたのですが、その際とってもお気に入りの場所になり再訪。
バギーに乗って自然の中を走り回るのは本当に最高です！
映画のロケ地では止まって英語で説明をしてくれました。
砂埃にまみれてめちゃくちゃ汚れるので、捨ててもいい服で参加することをおすすめします！笑

The tour meets at a local spot, and it's easy to find since it's next to the Hilton Lagoon. We were taken out to sea by cheerful staff members. There were three groups of Japanese guests at the same time, so while others were flying, we waited on the boat, but it can sway with the waves, so those who are prone to motion sickness should be cautious.

We wore life vests and safety gear, which the staff helped us with. They asked if we wanted photos before flying. After getting off the boat, they transferred the photos they took to our smartphones and also provided an SD card on the spot for $40 per group. We decided to purchase it.

The view of Waikiki Beach from the sky was wonderful. It was a clear day, perfect for parasailing. The wind was strong, so it swayed more as we gained altitude. Flying in Hawaii was amazing! The flight time went by in an instant. I felt like a kite, and I had a lot of fun!

現地集合のツアーですが、場所もヒルトンラグーンの横なので、わかりやすいです。陽気なスタッフのお兄さん達に連れられて沖の方まで移動。
同じ時間の予約が、日本人3組だったので、他の人が飛んでる間はボートで待ちますが、波で揺れるので、酔いやすい人は要注意かも。
ライフベスト着用して安全装備を装着。スタッフさんが全てやってくれます。飛ぶ前に写真が必要かどうか聞かれます。スタッフさんが撮ってくれたデータを船から降りた後スマホに転送し、SDカードもその場でくれて、1グループ40ドル。うちは購入しました。
空から見たワイキキビーチは、とても素敵でした。快晴でパラセイル日和。風は強いので、高度が上がるほど揺れます。
ハワイで飛べたのは最高！あっと言う間の飛行時間。自分が凧になった気分で、とても楽しめました♪
