It was so much fun, a great adventure, beautiful views! The crew was great!

My husband and I had a good time on the cruise. The food was good and the show was fun!

Gracie and Levi were the best guides. Very knowledgeable and funny! My husband and I had a great time! The views were stunning!

Great crew. We were the only couple not affiliated with the Marriage celebration folks who filled up the rest of the seats/catamaran. Instead of the usual dinner of our last sunset cruise 2 years ago, the celebration had them do gourmet appetizers. The sponsor of the celebration greeted us and talked to us. The crew worked hard but happily caring for all on board.
We will be back in 2 years to enjoy the experience again.

Very Prompt, and Helpful!
Would recommend, made it easy to get to our destination without any stress.

So much fun, amazing experience, and beautiful views

Fun thanks thanks thank you mahalo mahalo nui thank you

Thank you! Thank you, thank you thank you thank you thank you

You know how you can never quite describe the atmosphere, moments and beauty of something? That was this experience. From a long distance traveler- this was once in a lifetime. Tell everyone you know and bring them with you. 10/10.

Both of you were kind and fun, and we had a great time! The snorkeling time was enjoyable, and we had fun conversations during the car ride as well! (On the way back, everyone was asleep, so I got the privilege of sitting in the front seat!?)

We saw fish, turtles, and seals♪

【Reference Information】
- You will be in the water for one hour.
- I recommend taking motion sickness medication.
Both of us don’t usually get motion sickness, but since we were wearing life jackets, we were constantly swaying with the waves. It can make you feel queasy...
- If you get cold easily, I recommend renting a suit.
We participated on a sunny afternoon on September 19, and after an hour in the water, your body can get cold.
Slim men, please be careful...
It might be good for those who are not strong swimmers too!
- I recommend applying sunscreen on your back.
If you don’t apply sunscreen, you will get a sunburn in the shape of the life jacket strap.
You can get quite burned, so please be careful.
- A waterproof case for your smartphone is recommended.
The sea is very beautiful, so I was able to take incredibly clear photos and videos with my smartphone!!
- There is no souvenir time.
Since it’s a tour, that’s to be expected; you just go, swim, and come back. There’s no free time.
- You can receive GoPro photos.
They will post them on Facebook, so you can get them for free. They are great photos!

お二人とも優しく楽しく、楽しい時間を過ごせました！
シュノーケリングの時間はもちろん行き帰りの車中でも楽しく会話できました！（帰りはみんな寝てましたし、助手席に座ったからこその特権！？）
魚、亀、あざらし見れました♪

My first buggy experience was so much fun! It felt like something you can't experience in Japan, and I have no regrets about trying it out!! I even bought a T-shirt on-site♪

【Reference Information】
- The bus from Waikiki to Kualoa Ranch is cold. I recommend bringing a jacket.
- After arriving, you'll receive information about the meeting points for each course from a Japanese guide. Please note that further procedures may be necessary at the ticket center.
- Many comments mention getting completely covered in dust, but I didn't get that muddy. A sweat wipe was enough, and I didn't need to change.
- There is a Japanese version of the guidance video before boarding, so no problem there.
- The restaurant can get crowded, so if you plan to use it, I recommend going early.

Definitely give it a try!!

初めてのバギー、とても楽しかったです！

ぜひご参加してみてください！！

A while ago when I participated, I was seated front and back, but this time it was side by side for parasailing, so I was able to enjoy it while chatting! We went quite high up, and I was able to enjoy the wonderful views of Waikiki and Diamond Head!

ずいぶん前に参加したときは、前後で乗ったのですが、今回は横並びのパラセーリングだったので、会話しながら楽しむことができました！
大分高いところまで上がるので、ワイキキの町並みやダイアモンドヘッドの素晴らしい景色を楽しめました！

I arrived a little early, and the staff greeted me, allowing me to take photos with the hula dancers, enjoy the ukulele, and have some drinks. The food was delicious as well. I think it would be nice to have a bit more Hawaiian cuisine. The show was wonderful, and I had a great time. I was seated in the second row, center, so I could see the performers' expressions clearly. I was also able to take a photo with Michael and Elvis at the end. It was a different kind of enjoyment compared to the hula show at the Hilton.

少し早めに到着しましたが、受付の方に声掛けいただき、フラダンサーとの写真撮影・ウクレレ・飲み物などの対応を受けました。
食事も美味しかったです。もう少しハワイらしい料理が多いと良いかなとは思います。
ショーもすばらしく楽しく過ごせました。場所も２列目真ん中で表情まではっきりと見えました。
マイケル･エルビスとも最後に写真を一緒にとれました。
ヒルトンのフラショーとは違う楽しみ方ができ楽しめました。

The staff communicated in basic English, but they assisted us immediately when we showed the voucher. Since we were staying at Hilton Hawaiian Village, we arrived second. I carried my suitcase to the exit myself when getting off, but the driver helped with unloading. We gave a tip, but it was impressive to see the driver’s puzzled expression when some of the other passengers did not.

基本英語での対応でしたが、バウチャーを見せるとすぐに対応してもらいました。宿泊がヒルトンハワイアンビレッジだったので二番目に到着しました。
スーツケースは下車時は自身で出口まで運びましたが、ドライバーがおろすのは手伝ってくれました。
私たちはチップを渡しましたが、他の乗客の一部が渡さなかったので、ドライバーが怪訝な表情をしていたのが印象的でした。

Beautiful and relaxing. We had family visiting that couldn’t do a big hike, so this was perfect. The singing was such a nice touch.

I chose this because it has good access from hotels around Waikiki and the travel time by boat is short. Since it's a boat ride, I think some people might get seasick, but it's only about a 10-minute boat ride from Waikiki Beach, so it might be bearable?? There is some rocking, so if you're worried, it's definitely a good idea to take motion sickness medication beforehand.

You can opt to have photos taken, and payment is made afterward. You need to communicate in English with the captains to request photos (if you don't ask, they won't take any). I thought they would just take a few casual shots, but they actually took quite a number of photos and even considered the composition carefully. They managed to capture beautiful shots with passing boats and planes, and I was very satisfied.

The woman at the reception was kind and greeted us with a smile, and she helped me when I was looking for the restroom (there was a restroom about a 2-minute walk away).

I gave a $20 tip to the captains when we disembarked. Thank you to all the staff for an amazing experience!

ワイキキ周辺のホテルからアクセスがよく、船での移動時間も短いという理由から申し込みしました。
船での移動ということもあり、船酔いする方もいらっしゃると思いますがワイキキビーチから10分ほど船を走らせるくらいなのでギリギリ耐えられるかも？？揺れはあるので心配な方は酔い止めを飲んでおくのが間違いないです。
オプションで写真をとってもらうことができますが支払いは後払いです。船の上で、キャプテンたちに写真をとってほしいと英語で伝える必要がありました(伝えないと写真は撮ってもらえません)。適当に何枚か撮ってくれるだけかなと思っていましたが、結構な枚数を撮影してくれており、構図までしっかり考えてくれていました。たまたま通りかかった船や飛行機と綺麗に撮ってくれていて大満足でした。
受付の女性も、優しく笑顔で対応してくれて、トイレを探して困っていたところを助けてくれました(徒歩2分くらいのとこにトイレありました)。
チップは20ドルをキャプテンたちに渡して下船しました。
スタッフのみなさま最高な体験をありがとうございました。

This was my fourth canyon tour, and I had a different experience this time. There were three participants at the beginning, and everyone was excited. It was an English tour, but it was very enjoyable.

私、小菅智は今回で4回目の渓谷ツアーでしたが今までと異なる経験をしました。初めの参加者3名いましたが皆興奮していました。英語にツアーでしたが
非常に楽しいツアーでした。

We gathered 30 minutes before the parasailing started. It was a bit far from our hotel, but we were able to get there without any issues using thebas. We boarded the boat with other participants and headed out to sea. The boat rocked quite a bit, so I think it's essential to take motion sickness medication if you're prone to seasickness. The view during parasailing was breathtaking!!! It was the best!!! You can get the data from your parasailing experience later for $40. Payment of $40 can also be made by credit card.

パラセーリング開始30半前に集合します。当方の宿泊ホテルから少し離れていましたが、thebasを使い問題なく向かうことができました。他の参加者と共に船に乗り込み、沖に向かいます。結構揺れるので、船酔いする方は酔い止め必須だと思います。パラセーリング中の景色は絶景です！！！最高でした！！！パラセーリング中のデータを後で40ドルでもらうことが出来ます。40ドルはクレカでも支払い可能でした。

Whether you like sunrise or sunset is personal, I do prefer sunsets: colors are more intense and after that the night comes with a zillion stars, a wondrous show magnified by the purity of the air.
Yoshi, the man from Maui All Stars, in charge of the tour is a courteous man and also a passionate astronomer. He does everything to make you feel comfortable: chairs, blankets, tea, cookies and a powerful Meade telescope that will bring you amazing views of moon and the stars.
What I want to point out is the importance of doing this with someone who loves what he's doing.
Unforgettable moment!
Thank you, Yoshi!!!

Jeff was an incredible tour guide! He was educational and also was great about making sure the group was doing okay! We had so much fun and would do again/recommend to friends!!

The captains were very friendly and kind. There was a wide variety of snacks and drinks, and the spam onigiri was especially great.

I was also glad to catch a glimpse of the sea turtles.

Unfortunately, the snorkeling was quite crowded. Moving in a large group felt like being in a packed train, making it far from an enjoyable snorkeling experience. Other activities were fun, though.

キャプテンたちがとてもフレンドリーで親切でした。
スナック類やドリンクも豊富で、特にスパムおにぎりは最高でした。

ウミガメもちらっと見る事ができて良かったです。

残念なのはシュノーケリングの人口密度。大人数で一斉に移動するため、前後左右ぎっしりでぶつかりながらの移動。満員電車の中のようなシュノーケリングで楽しむというには程遠い感じです。その他のアクティビティは楽しかったです。

Like the History of the river
Love the friendly staff
Love the music

I was able to immerse myself in the world of Jurassic Park while horseback riding. I was overwhelmed by the magnificent scenery. The Japanese guidance was very comprehensive, so I felt no anxiety at all.

乗馬しながらジュラシックパークの世界に浸れました。壮大な景色に圧倒されました。日本語の案内も大変充実しているので、全く不安は感じませんでした

I booked this on a whim (had seen a few recommendations from a travel group on Facebook). I am so glad I did!!! This was hands down our favorite thing we did. Our trip to PCC included transportation there and back, which was convenient because we didn’t rent a car. From the time we were dropped at the center to the time we arrived back at our drop off spot in Waikīkī, we were impressed. The story telling, the interactive demonstrations, the hospitality and excitement of everyone working at the center was nothing less than amazing. We ate at the restaurant called Pounders for lunch, the service was excellent and the food was some of the best we had our whole time here. We both learned so much about the Polynesian Cultures and the end show “Ha breathe of life” is one of the best live performances we’ve gone to. Anyone visiting should definitely book this, you won’t be disappointed! We spent one day at PCC, but I think you could definitely spend multiple days and really immerse yourself in each culture and spend time participating in all the activities!

Once gathered, we will split into groups and head to the sea by boat. Two people will take turns paragliding. You can enjoy the wonderful scenery for about five minutes! The equipment is not particularly difficult to use, so I think it will be fine.

集合したら各グループに別れボートで海へ向かいます。
2人ずつ順番にパラセイリングを行います。
5分ほど飛び、素晴らしい絶景をたのしむことができます！
装備品も特に難しいものはないので大丈夫だと思います。

A couple in their 70s has experienced Hawaii several times in the past and is well aware of its charm. However, they have recently become more aware of their declining physical strength and decided to enjoy one last trip to Hawaii while they are still able to move around.

In previous trips, they prioritized visiting various tourist spots, and the only show they had seen was over a decade ago at the Polynesian Cultural Center. This time, they considered revisiting the center for its grand show, but due to the distance, they learned that there was a show very close to their hotel in Waikiki and decided to sign up for it on a whim.

To their surprise, the show turned out to be quite professional, featuring not only beautiful hula and intense Polynesian dances but also performances by impersonators of the late popular stars, Elvis Presley and Michael Jackson. They realized that if this were the real deal, it would be incredibly difficult to obtain tickets even for a hefty sum, and they both agreed on that.

After the show, there was a meet-and-greet with the artists and a photo opportunity, which added to their experience. On the way back to the hotel, they felt that just being able to see such a show made the trip to Hawaii worthwhile, and they were very satisfied, especially when his wife showed off a photo of herself with the beloved "Presley."

70歳代の夫婦、ハワイ旅行は過去にも何度か体験してハワイの魅力を十分認識しておりますが、最近とみに体力の衰えを自覚するようになり、身体が動くうちにもう1度、と今回が最後のつもりでハワイ旅行を楽しんで来ました。
数年前までは、ハワイの色んな観光スポットを巡ることを優先していた関係で、ショーを鑑賞したのは10数年前の「ポリネシアカルチャーセンター」でのショーが1度きり。
今回の旅行でも、久し振りにそこを訪れて豪華ショーを鑑賞しようかとも思ったのですが、距離的にちょっときつかったので、ワイキキの宿泊ホテルからすぐ近くでもショーがあるのを知り、ちょっと覗いてみようかと軽い気持ちで申し込みました。
ところが、これがなかなか本格的なショーで、華麗なフラや激しいポリネシアンダンスだけでなく、今は亡き人気スター、エルビス・プレスリーやマイケル・ジャクソンのそっくりさんの歌やパフォーマンスまであって、しかもそれを中央前方のVIP席で鑑賞できるなんて、これが本物だったらン十万払ってもチケット入手は困難だろうなと家内とも納得し合ったりもして。
またショーが終わっての帰りには、出場アーティストたちとの握手会や記念撮影サービスなどもあって至れり尽くせり。
こんなショーを観れただけでも、ハワイに来た甲斐があったよね、とホテルへの帰り道、あこがれの"プレスリー"との２ショット写真を私に見せながら大満足の家内でした。

I went for the first time this year. When we got on the boat, it was raining, but I was glad that it stopped by the time we arrived at the sandbar. The water was knee-deep in some areas, which made it enjoyable. We could also rent SUPs and had a great time. There was a Japanese-speaking guide who provided support. They took us snorkeling, and we were able to see plenty of turtles. The guide helped us, a couple in our 60s, with snorkeling, and we could just float around. I want to go again next year. I think it would be wonderful if it were sunny. It was already so great even with the rain and clouds, so I'm looking forward to going again next year. There is a website that checks the tide levels at the sandbar, so I recommend looking it up and choosing a day with low tide when making a reservation. It’s a wonderful world where you can experience the ocean in 360 degrees.

今年初めて行きました。
ボートに乗った時は、雨が降っていたけどサンドバーに到着したときは案がやんでよかった。
深さは膝ぐらいのところもあり楽しむことができました。
SUPなども借りることができ良い時間を過ごすことができます。
日本語を話すガイドがおりサポートしてくれます。
シュノーケリングに連れて行ってくれますが、亀が見放題の状態でした。
我々６０代の夫婦の手を引いてシュノーケリングをさせてくれ浮かんでいるだけでよい状態でした。
来年も行きたい。快晴だったらどんなにいいだろうと思う。
雨曇りであれだけよかったので来年も行こうと楽しみにしています。
サンドバーの潮位を調べるサイトがあるので、予約するときはぜひ覗いて潮位の低い日を選ぶことをお勧めします。
３６０度海の中で体験できる素晴らしい世界です。

We had a fabulous time on this tour with Josh!! He was very knowledgable on the island, inhabitants, customs, shops, restaurants and used personal stories to make this experience enjoyable by all. I would definitely recommend this tour and our tour guide Josh. On a side note, we were able to enjoy this experience. with another couple in which the husband worked the pineapple fields back in the 70's when he was 15 years old on a school reference. It was great seeing Lanai through his eyes and hearing about his time back in the day.

As a tour, the waiting time is too long and there's nothing to do, so it's boring. If possible, I recommend going directly with The Bus or by rental car.

The shuttle bus is large and luxurious, but the air conditioning is too strong, so it's essential to bring a jacket or something to wear. However, it's comfortable. If you want to rest and sleep, I recommend it.

The buggy ride is fun, and they help with interesting explanations and photo opportunities along the way, so you can enjoy it. Even the playful teasing like "Hurry up!" is fun (laughs).

The appeal of driving on rough roads means you should be prepared for mud splashes. You can enjoy getting dirtier than you would in Japan. If you're concerned, please bring a change of clothes. There are no changing rooms, so you'll need to use the restroom. Just for your reference.

I wondered if I should tip the two attendants (who also drove for those who wanted to enjoy the ride without driving), but I hesitated because I didn't have the right bills. I'm sorry... I wonder if $5 per person would have been okay?

I want to go again!

By the way, except for boarding the bus and checking in, everything is in English, but you could choose Japanese for the safety video before getting on the buggy. They check how to drive individually during the test run, so I think you can understand the atmosphere well enough even if you don't speak English. I recommend it!

ツアーとしては、待ち時間が長すぎるし、やる事が無いので退屈。可能であれば、直接、The Busか、レンタカーで行く事をオススメします。
送迎バスは、大きく豪華なので、冷房が効きすぎるので上着などの対策は必須ですが、快適です。疲れて寝たい場合には、オススメします。

バギーは面白いし、途中で降りてアトラクション感満載の面白い説明や写真撮影のお手伝いもしてくれるので、楽しめます。もっと早く付いてこい！みたいな煽りすら楽しい（笑）

悪路走行が魅力なので、泥跳ねは覚悟してください。日本ではあり得ないくらい、汚れる事を楽しめます。気になる方は着替えを持参してください。更衣室は無いのでお手洗い利用です。ご参考まで。

アテンド（運転せずに後ろに乗って楽しみたい人のために運転手もしてました）のお2人にチップを払った方がいいのかな？と思ったけど、ちょうどいいお札がなく躊躇してしまったのは心残りです。ごめんなさい…ひとり5ドルでもよかったのかなぁ？

また行きたいです！

因みに行きのバス搭乗と、チェックイン以外は、全て英語ですが、バギー乗車前の安全講習ビデオだけ日本語が選べました。運転の仕方は、テスト走行の際に個別に確認してくれるので、英語できなくても雰囲気で十分理解できると思います。
オススメです！

The guide's instructions and explanations were easy to understand, and I had a lot of fun. I wish I could have stayed longer and done more snorkeling.

ガイドさんの誘導も説明もわかりやすくて、とっても楽しかったです。
もう少し長く、滞在してシュノーケリングしたかったです。
