Hawaii
The weather was nice, and it's no wonder so many people participated. The guide was very happy! The cruise was amazing. I had a hearty lunch as well. I will continue to enjoy Hawaii from tomorrow.
お天気が良く、多くの方が参加されるだけのことは、あります。ガイドのお兄さんがとてもHAPPY
‼️クルーズ最高でした。 ランチもガッツリ頂きました。あすからもハワイを楽しみます。
Big shout out to Scott and his team! We just took our first ever snorkel and my wife does not swim well and is afraid of the water. Scott is a very calm and encouraging person, my wife held on to the float and with the life vest had no worries about sinking. Sure the water was murky today, yet we saw fish, and held a starfish, a sea cucumber, and an urchin. Way cool!
The buggy tour is incredibly fun as you can race through nature! The guide speaks English, but there are also Japanese staff, so I felt comfortable participating. Riding the buggy through the magnificent nature felt amazing. The scenery is just too beautiful. I think you should definitely join. However, be prepared for your clothes, face, and bag to get muddy. Expect to get quite dirty! Your face will be covered in sand, but you'll encounter sights that are worth it!
バギーでのツアーは自然の中を駆けめぐれるので、最高に楽しいです!
英語でのガイドですが、日本人スタッフもいてるので安心して参加できました。壮大な自然のなかバギーで駆け巡る事はとても気持ちが良かったです。景色が綺麗すぎます。参加するべきだと思います。
ただ、服、顔、鞄すべてが泥んこになります。
相当な汚れを覚悟して参加してください!
顔が砂まみれになるけど、それ以上の光景に出会えます!
I wanted to go horseback riding and see the magnificent scenery, so I made a reservation with my husband. However, since there were ups and downs, I didn't have much time to enjoy the view as it was my first experience riding. Since we were in the sun for a long time, sunscreen is a must. The guide was English-speaking, so you need to have a certain level of understanding; otherwise, you'll just be looking at the scenery. Unfortunately, we only stopped for about three minutes at the main highlight, so I wish we had a bit more time. I'm grateful that the guide sends the photos he takes along the way to my phone!
乗馬をして雄大な景色を見たいと思い主人と予約しましたが、アップダウンがあるので乗馬初体験には景色を楽しむ余裕が薄れてました。
日向が続くので日焼け止め必須です。
ガイドさんが1人・英語なのである程度理解出来ないと景色だけになります。
残念なのが、1番見どころの場所で3分程度しか止まらないのでもう少し時間が欲しいです。
ガイドさんが途中撮影してくれる写真を携帯に送ってくれるのは有り難いです!
I received reminder emails as needed, which provided reassurance that my reservation was confirmed. Although I was 25 minutes late this time, they waited until the last minute. While being late is not ideal, their flexible response increased my trust in them.
We participated as a group of five, totaling ten people, and the activity took about an hour. Each group had a ride of about ten minutes. Due to significant swaying, those who are prone to motion sickness should definitely take anti-nausea medication.
It was certainly fun, and I can also appreciate the safety measures, including life jackets and support for two people.
Photos are $40. They asked if I wanted one, but there was no hard selling. The minimum tip was understood to be $20, and all five groups gave $20.
リマインドのメールが適宜届きます。ちゃんと予約が入っているという安心感にも繋がりました。今回25分遅刻をしてしまいましたが、ギリギリまで待ってくれました。遅れるのはダメですが、こういった臨機応変な対応も信頼度に繋がりました。
5組10名で参加し、1時間くらいの所要時間です。1組10分くらいのライドでした。横揺れがすごいため、苦手な方は酔い止め必須です。
楽しかったことはもちろんですが、救命胴衣や2名サポートを含め安全性も評価できます。
写真は40ドル。いるか聞かれて、無理な販売はありません。チップは20ドルが最低価格という先方の認識でした。5組とも、20ドルを渡しています。
I had a great time with the two-hour horseback riding! The course felt like a hiking trail, but since the horses handled both the uphill and downhill parts, it was less tiring. Being on horseback also gave me a higher vantage point, making the stunning views even more beautiful!
There were about six participants and two staff members accompanying us. The horses my family and I rode were calm and didn't require much guidance, so we seemed to have a good match.
However, be aware that the round sign for Jurassic Park, famous at Kualoa Ranch, was not on the course!
During the horseback riding, you need to store most of your belongings in a locker for $5 a day. Only a drink bottle and a small camera or smartphone are allowed in a small bag provided to you. Since you’ll be holding the reins with one hand, you can take photos with one hand when you get used to the rhythm. Besides selfies, they also take paid photos along the way with your smartphone.
Lunch can be purchased at the cafeteria on-site for about $15-20. The portions are quite substantial, so sharing might be a good idea if two people are participating. Be mindful that there can be a long line during lunchtime, and it takes some time to get your food. Also, you need to board the return bus earlier than the scheduled departure time, so timing is important.
Overall, I was very satisfied and felt it was one of the activities I was glad to have done!
2時間たっぷりの乗馬でとても楽しかったです!
コース的にはハイキングコースのような感じですが、登りも下りもお馬さんがやってくれるので疲労度も少なく、馬上なので視座も高くて絶景が更に美しく見えました!
参加者6人くらいにスタッフ2人がついてくれました。私や家族が乗った馬は大人しくて指示もあまり必要なく、相性が良かったようです。
ただ、クアロアランチで有名なジュラシックパークの丸い看板はコースに入っていなかったのでその点は注意です…!
乗馬の際は、1日5ドルのロッカーに荷物のほとんどを預けます。貸与される小さいバッグに入る、飲み物ボトルとスマホや小さいカメラのみ持ち込みが許されます。基本的に片手は手綱を握っているので、写真はリズムに慣れてきた頃に好きなタイミングで片手で撮る感じです。自撮り以外は途中で有料写真と手持ちのスマホでの写真を撮ってくれます。
ランチは施設内のカフェテリアで15-20ドルくらいで購入できます。結構しっかりボリュームあるので2人参加ならシェアでも良いかも。お昼時は結構並ぶし提供まで時間がかかるのと、帰りのバスが出発時間より早めに乗車する必要があるのでタイミング注意です。
全体的にかなり満足度高くて、やって良かったなと思うアクティビティのひとつでした!
This was an awesome experience! Highly recommend it. Beautiful scenery and very professional tour guide. Forrest was exceptional. The weather was unbelievable. We had a wonderful time. The information given regarding the valley’s history was interesting and very well presented. 5 star event all around.
This was a great cruise! The team onboard was extremely friendly and engaging! Cocktail election was perfect and appetizers were on point! Although it gives you the choice to book with kids, I would caution taking kids who are under the age only because the group of passengers were clearly there for a good time. Overall great experience
I was picked up in front of the Twin Fin Hotel and participated in the tour. The pickup was smooth, just by saying my name, and the bus was comfortable.
At the location, there were various counters, and even if you don't know where to go, the tour staff will kindly guide you. The buggy counter is located to the left after passing the ticket counter on the right side of the entrance, and it's fine to line up 10-15 minutes before your activity.
I recommend leaving everything except your smartphone in the lockers on the left at the entrance, as you might get covered in sand. The lockers are easy to use.
The buggy activity was amazing! Even if you're a paper driver, you can drive, and if it seems too dangerous, the guide will take over. The two guides were very entertaining, and they took many wonderful photos for us. However, some of the main movie filming locations are just passed slowly, so I recommend not forgetting to take pictures.
ツインフィンホテル前でピックアップしてもらいツアーに参加しました。
ピックアップも名前を言うだけでスムーズ、バスも快適でした。
現地では様々なカウンターがあり、どこかわからなくてもツアーの方に聞けばにこやかに教えてくれました。
バギーのカウンターは入り口を抜けて右手のチケットカウンターを過ぎた左手にあり、10-15分前に並べばOKです。
カウンターに並ぶ前に、スマホ以外の全てを入り口左のロッカーに預けることをお勧めします。砂に塗れます。ロッカーも使いやすいです。
バギーアクティビティーは最高でした!
ペーパードライバーでも運転できましたし、あまりに危険そうならガイドが代わってくれるとのことでした。ガイドの2人もとても面白くて、素敵な写真をたくさん撮ってもらいました。
ただ、メインの映画ロケ地のいくつかは横をゆっくり通り過ぎるだけになるので、忘れずに写真を撮ることをお勧めします。
It took just over 30 minutes to get to the hotel from Waikiki International Airport. Once I exited the airport, a staff member in a yellow jacket welcomed me. We waited for about 10 minutes until everyone was gathered, and then we departed right away, taking just over 30 minutes to reach Waikiki. It was a very convenient and economical bus tour.
ワイキキ国際空港からわずか30分余りで、ホテルまで連れて行ってもらいました。
空港の出口を出たら黄色い上着の係員さんが出迎えてくれます。
10分くらい出発迄待ちましたが、メンバーが揃ったら直ぐに出発、ワイキキまで30分余りです。
とても便利で経済的なバスツアーでした。
This time on my solo trip, I went kayaking.
Unfortunately, there were no dolphins, but the views of Hualalai and Mauna Loa in the morning were absolutely beautiful!
The couple who joined me patiently waited for me, who was running a bit late, along with the guide, and I did my best to keep up.
On the way back, WiL helped by connecting my kayak since I was a bit tired.
I want to participate again next time and hope to encounter dolphins!
ひとり旅の今回は、カヤックに。
残念ながらイルカはいなかったけど、朝のフアラライやマウナロアがとても綺麗に見えて最高でした!
一緒に参加のご夫婦も、遅れ気味の私をガイドさんとともにのんびりと待ってくださり、一生懸命ついていきました♪
帰りは少し疲れた私のカヤックをWiLさんが連結してヘルプしてくださいました。
次もまた参加して、今度はイルカに遭遇したいです
I went to the ticket counter around 10:45 as it said to check in at that time, and I received a paper voucher. It was crowded, so the actual ticket was issued around 10:58. The paper stated that horseback riding was from 11:30, so I thought it would be fine to arrive around that time, but when I got there at 11:30, I was told it was too late and I couldn't ride. My English isn't fluent, so I couldn't grasp the nuances, but it felt like they meant that 11:30 was too late since there was an explanatory video and such.
Isn't it normal to arrive at the time stated, 11:30? If there was a gathering time before that, it should have been indicated. I was really looking forward to it, so I'm very disappointed. My friend and I are both let down. When I explained the situation to the ticket center staff, they somehow allowed us to join another tour, but I really wanted to go horseback riding.
10:45にチェックインと書いてあったのでチケットカウンターにそのくらいの時間に行き、バウチャーのような紙を出してもらいました。混雑していたので実際に発券されたのはおよそ10:58頃。紙には乗馬は11:30〜と書いてあり、その時間に行けば良いのだと思って11:30頃に行ったらもう遅いと言われ乗れなかった。英語が流暢なわけではないので細かいニュアンスが分からないが、説明のビデオ等があるから11:30じゃ遅いという感じだった。
11:30〜と書かれていたらその時間に行ってしまうのが普通じゃないでしょうか?その前に集合ならその集合時間を記載してもらわないと分からない。
とても楽しみにしていたので残念でならないです。
私も友人もガッカリです。チケットセンターの人に事情を説明したらなんとか他のツアーに参加させていただけましたが、乗馬したかったです。
It was more enjoyable to see it in person than to watch it on YouTube. On the way back, there was a service where you could take photos with the performers, which was also a lot of fun. The Royal Hawaiian Center is located in the heart of Waikiki, making it very convenient to get to and from. There were videos, and the music and dance were enjoyable to watch. The fire performances were also amazing.
ユーチューブで見るより、実際にみた方が楽しかったです。帰りに、出演者の方々と写真が撮れるというサービスがあり、それもとても楽しかったです。ロイヤルハワイアンセンターはワイキキの中心にあり、行き帰りもすごく楽でした。映像もあり、音楽や踊りも楽しく見れました。火を使ったパフォーマンスもすごかったです。
Thank you very much for attending the Rockafura Rockin' Show. We are very pleased to hear that you enjoyed the entertainment, including the fire knife performances. We sincerely look forward to welcoming you back when you visit Hawaii again.
この度はロッカフラ ロッキンショーにご来場頂きまして、誠に有難うございます。エンターテインメントそして、ファイアーナイフなど楽しめて頂けたご様子で、私共も大変嬉しく思っております。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 received the voucher for the pickup time and location based on my departure flight from Honolulu Airport, along with a photo of the shuttle bus, which made me feel at ease. When I used the service, the driver confirmed my name before loading my luggage, and I was able to arrive at the airport smoothly.
ホノルル空港出発便に基づきピックアップ時間と場所のバウチャーとシャトルバスの写真を送ってもらい安心して利用出来た
利用時は運転手さんもしっか名前で確認してから荷物を乗せてくれスムーズに空港に到着出来た
Educational, fun, and awe inspiring views all around this North Shore Eco Tour of the 10,000 acre ranch. Ryan was knowledgeable, showing us all of the different flora and wild boar trails, and went out of his way to provide extra help for me getting in and out of the vehicle and in and out of the water. Had a great time at the "playground" being the only participant to fall completely off my seat! What a great time it was bouncing around the property and basking in nature's beauty.
Our Tour Guide, Jon, was an outstanding storyteller and kept us entertained with background, legends, history and personal observations of the stops on the tour. He was treated us as Ohana and made sure we had water and juice, delivered our lunches to us, checked that every one was comfortable. At the waterfall trail, my knee acted up so I found a shady spot to wait for my husband. Jon had rented a scooter to go down to the waterfall to check on everyone else. On the way back Jon insisted I use the scooter to return to the bus. I nominate him for employee of the year.
I was very nervous before trying parasailing at a height of 150 meters for the first time, but the staff were kind and it was a lot of fun throughout. I didn't feel unsafe and would like to participate again. The motorboat swayed a bit on the waves, so I took motion sickness medication before going.
初めてパラセイリングで150mの高さは乗る前はとてもドキドキでしたが、スタッフ方たちが親切で終始とても楽しかったです。
危ないこともなくまた参加したいです。
モーターボートは時々波にのり揺れます。酔い止めは飲んで行きました。
The tour was fun, but the high waves in Waikiki and the simple life jackets that resembled airplane life vests seemed difficult for my 7-year-old child for snorkeling. We were able to see sea turtles while snorkeling, and it was enjoyable to sail out with the yacht's sails up. It might be fine for children who are strong swimmers and accustomed to snorkeling.
ツアーは楽しかったですが、
7歳の子供にはワイキキの高い波と、
飛行機の救命胴衣のような簡易ライフジャケットはシュノーケルには難しかったようです。
シュノーケルでウミガメも見れましたし、
ヨットの帆を張って沖まで行ったりして楽しかったです。
泳力とシュノーケル慣れのある子供なら大丈夫かも。
For group airport transfers, I usually use Uber, but for solo travel, the shared shuttle service is convenient, and I always make use of it.
グループでの空港往復はUberとかに成りますが、一人旅だと乗合送迎サービスが便利で何時も利用させて頂いてます。
Although we Japanese felt a bit anxious about everything being in English, the driver was a very kind woman who provided excellent service while announcing the history of the Ala Wai Canal and Waikiki. She was very attentive, and we had no worries at all since she was well aware of the arrival location and flight number at the airport.
全て英語で我々日本人からすると多少不安があったものの、とても親切な女性のドライバーで、アラワイ運河やワイキキの歴史などをアナウンスしながら丁寧な対応でとても良かったです。
空港の到着場所も便名をきちんと把握されていて全く心配なかったです。
When I used it four months ago, I had to wait for over 30 minutes, but this time I was able to board in about 10 minutes.
The windows are large, allowing for great views, and the seats are spacious, making it very comfortable. I will definitely use it again soon.
4ヶ月前に利用したときは30分以上は待たされましたが、今回は10分ほどで乗車できました。
窓も広く景色を楽しめますし、席も広々としているのでとても快適です。また近々利用させていただきます。
Nice boat ride and short walk to a grotto covered with ferns. Pretty walk.
During our visit to Hawaii, we decided to book a tour to Diamond Head for Sunrise Hiking. It was the best decision we made. Blue Lei Hawaii Tours provided excellent customer service from the beginning to the end. The driver arrived early and was very kind and helpful. We also received a delicious donut at the end of the hike! I'm glad we chose Blue Lei Hawaii Tours, and I would highly recommend using them for any of your tour needs.
Best thing we could do !! Very lucky to see turtles and dolphins !!
I was recommended Hanauma Bay as a great spot in Hawaii by a friend, but I learned that reservations are required for entry. Since I can't drive, I was looking for an all-inclusive plan and found this tour.
I had only snorkeled once before, so I was a bit anxious, but the small group and the attentive guidance in Japanese made it a wonderful experience. I was really happy to see sea turtles!
Hanauma Bay has more waves than I expected, so while floating, my body was swaying, and I was glad I took motion sickness medication. (There were others who got seasick as well. I tend to get motion sickness easily, but thanks to the medication, I had no issues at all.)
I heard that it's difficult to reserve entry tickets for Hanauma Bay, so I'm really glad I booked this tour considering that aspect too.
友人からハワイのおすすめの場所としてハナウマ湾を教えてもらいましたが入場に予約が必要とのことで、車も運転できないので全て込み込みのプランを探しておりこのツアーを見つけました。
シュノーケルは一回しか経験がなく少し不安でしたが、日本語で少人数で丁寧に進めてもらい、ウミガメも見ることができて本当に良かったです!
ハナウマ湾は思ったより波があるので、浮いている間に身体が揺れるので酔い止めを服用していってよかったです。(波酔いしてしまっている方もいました。自分もかなり乗り物酔いしやすいですが、薬の服用のおかげで全然問題なかったです)
ハナウマ湾の入場チケットは予約困難らしく、その点も含めてこのツアーを予約してよかったなと思います。
An interesting tour. Staff are friendly and knowledgable. Loved that we got to stop off and see a few of the sites along the way. Soooo many movies had scenes filmed on location. The views are extraordinary as well.
The staff members are amazing, and the food was delicious, but it would have been perfect if there were more play equipment! The staff doesn't go down to the sea, so it feels like you have to enjoy it on your own. However, the boat was beautiful, there were plenty of fish, and we even got to see turtles, so it was a lot of fun!
スタッフさん達は最高ですし、食事も美味しかったけどもう少し遊具が充実していれば完璧でした!
スタッフさん達は誰も海に降りないので自分たちで楽しむ感じです。でも船は綺麗で魚も沢山いて亀にも会えましたしとても楽しかったです!
It was our 2nd time at the summit after 14 years with your company and we were more concerned about the summit weather due to last time it was so windy and cold to stay outside of the car.
But, the weather this time thanks to god it was good to watch the sunset.
Our driver was so nice was caring, professional skill of guiding and a gentleman.
He was caring everyone.
This made our trip OUTSTANDING.
I would recommend this trip to anyone eligible it is good tour with a Mercedes 4WD van with 14 passengers.
This is a tour I wanted to go on for a long time. Since going individually with THE BUS takes a lot of time, I decided to join this tour.
Upon arrival, I received a tour explanation in Japanese, and during the waiting time, I was able to see horses and take photos.
The movie location tour was great as we traveled while enjoying the magnificent mountains from the bus. It was nice to take pictures with dinosaur bones used in Jurassic World.
The Kaneohe Bay cruise was smooth without feeling seasick, and there was no splashing of seawater (those who don't mind getting wet can sit at the front), allowing us to relax while enjoying the beautiful sea.
However, the explanations were in English, so I couldn't understand much. Also, since I was seated at the very back of the bus on the return trip, it was too cold, and I felt like I might catch a cold.
前から行きたかったツアーです
個人で(THE BUS)行くのは時間もかかるのでこちらに参加させて頂きました
到着すると日本語でツアーの説明を受け、待ち時間に馬を見たり写真を撮ったり出来ます
映画ロケ地巡りはバスから壮大な山々を見ながら周ります
ジェラシック・ワールドで使われた?恐竜の骨などと写真が撮れて良かったです
カネオヘ湾クルーズも酔うほど揺れず、海水がかかる事もなく(濡れても良い方は前方に)、綺麗な海を眺めながらのんびりできました
ただ英語の説明なのでチンプンカンプン
だった事と、復路のバスが1番後ろだった為か、寒すぎて風邪引きそうでした
I recently had an amazing horse riding experience, and I couldn’t recommend it more! The ocean views were absolutely breathtaking, and the overall ride was incredibly peaceful and enjoyable. As a beginner, I felt completely at ease, thanks to the friendly and knowledgeable guides. It’s the perfect activity for anyone looking to relax and take in the natural beauty of the surroundings. I’ll definitely be coming back for another ride!
Thank you for such a kind review, we are so glad you had a good time and hope to see you again soon!
