Hawaii
Parasailing was amazing! My group had an awesome time. The service was great, very knowledgeable and very welcoming. Highly recommended!
Star of Honolulu Sunset Cruise was amazing! My group had an awesome time, food was delicious, show was amazing as well. I was hoping for an actual Luau with the fire show. The service was great, very welcoming. Highly recommended!
I initially thought it would be an ordinary show since it started with hula dancing, but I enjoyed the diverse content, including impersonators of Elvis Presley and Michael Jackson, fire attractions, and aerial descents reminiscent of Cirque du Soleil. The theater also had a retro feel, creating a nice atmosphere.
After the show, the dancers from the Elvis and fire attraction were waiting near the exit, and I was pleased with the hospitality as they were willing to take commemorative photos. In the U.S., where prices are high, I appreciate it when shows like this offer discounted tickets.
フラダンスから始まったので、最初は凡庸なショーかなと思っていましたが、エルビスプレスリーとマイケルジャクソンのそっくりさんのショーや、ファイヤーアトラクションやシルクドソレイユを思わせる空中からの人の降下など、多彩な内容で楽しめました。劇場もレトロ感があり、良い雰囲気でした。
ショーが終わった後、エルビスとファイヤーアトラクションのダンサーが出口付近に待機しており、記念写真の撮影に応じてくれるなど、おもてなし感にも満足しました。米国は物価が高く、今回のショーのように、値引き販売してくれると、うれしいです。
Thank you very much for attending the Rockafella Rockin' Show. We are very pleased to hear that you enjoyed the performances of Elvis, Michael, and the Hawaiian show. We sincerely look forward to your visit again when you come to Hawaii.
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。エルビスやマイケルそして、ハワイアンショー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。
Boarding Day: Friday
Boarding Course: 5 Star
If you're going to board, it's best to do so on a Friday when the Hilton fireworks are held. The fireworks themselves last about 5 minutes, but the combination of the night view of Waikiki and the fireworks from the sea is breathtaking.
Unfortunately, the sunset was not very impressive due to the clouds. I guess that's just luck...
However, the dinner was extremely delicious.
Also, the live performance was great.
I had previously boarded a 3 Star cruise, but I think I will only choose 5 Star in the future.
While it is more expensive compared to 3 Star, you should definitely go for 5 Star.
乗船曜日:金曜
乗船コース:5スター
乗船するなら、ヒルトンの花火が行われる金曜です。花火自体は5分程度ですが、海上からワイキキの夜景と花火のコラボは絶景です。
サンセットは雲があり、感動する感じではなかったのが残念でした。こればかりは運かと…。
でも、ディナーが非常に美味しかったです。
また、生演奏がよかった。
以前に3スターに乗船したことありましたが、今後は5スターしか選ばないと思います。
3スターに比べれば値は張りますが、5スターにすべきです。
Thank you very much for joining us again on our Star of Honolulu dinner cruise. We were disappointed that the weather did not allow us to see a beautiful sunset this time, but we are very glad to hear that you enjoyed the jazz trio performance by Five Star, the views from the ship, and the collaboration with the Hilton fireworks on Friday. We look forward to welcoming you back again.
この度は私共のスターオブホノルル号デイナークルーズに再度お越し頂き誠に有難うございました。今回は天候の関係で綺麗なサンセットが見れなかったのは残念でしたが、ファイブスターでのジャズトリオ演奏と船上からの眺めと金曜日のヒルトンの花火のコラボをお楽しみ頂けました様で大変嬉しく思います。またのお越しをスタッフ一同お待ち申し上げております。
I participated with my husband, who has a fear of heights. It wasn't scary at all, and we had a great time! We arrived right on time for the meeting, but as soon as we got there, we hurried to sign in and boarded the boat. It seems we took the previous ferry. We were the only Japanese people, making a total of 10 participants. We were able to place our luggage at our feet. I brought a bath towel, but in the end, I didn't use it. We got off the bus at the Hilton and walked to the meeting point, but we got a bit lost on the way, so I think it's better to allow some extra time.
高所恐怖症の主人と参加。全く怖くなく楽しめました!集合時間ピッタリに着きましたが、着いた早々急いでサインして、船に乗りました。恐らくひとつ前の便に乗ったようです。日本人は私たちだけで合計10人でした。荷物も足元に置けました。バスタオルを持っていきましたが、結果使わなかったです。ヒルトンでバスを降りて集合場所まで行きましたが、辿り着くまでの道が少し迷いましたので、ゆとりをもって行った方がよいと思います。
So from other reviews you know the lines are long, especially in the heat. Now they have water fountains, and it does move semi quickly. But it would make sense to have the vip's seated 1st, then the GA seats enter by sections.
This would help with standing in the sun for to long.
The show it self was fantastic! Very entertaining, and kept you wanting more.
My only gripe, is that I am diabetic, and needed to eat sooner than later, and since I was the last table to be sat, we were the last table to be approved to get up to the Buffet. Also there was no sugar free desserts. Other than that the foods I was able to eat was delicious and flavorful. But I did end up in the restroom for most of the evening once returned back to the room. Could have been that some foods were in the temp danger zone for to long.
First time on Captain Bob’s we will definitely come back again!! Great crew, the scenery and water was beautiful we had so much fun!!
We really enjoyed this luau. The drumming, dancing and singing was awesome.
The attractions were great. I was glad to have reserved a cabana, but I couldn't place food orders from my phone using the QR code. The cabana was a bit pricey, but it was worth it.
アトラクションは良かった。
カバナを予約して良かったが、フードのオーダーはQRコードで行うのに携帯からオーダー出来なかった。カバナは少し高いがあって良かった。
ちょっと飛んでる時間ぎ短すぎです。準備が整っていないのに流れ作業のように飛べと急がせてくるし、満足度は低い。そのくせ写真を買わせようとしてくるのが不快でした。
The pickup location and the bus landmark that was communicated in advance were easy to understand. There were staff members who could speak Japanese, so I didn't have any trouble. I enjoyed multiple activities, and there was a live performance on the boat, which was a lot of fun.
Since it was mentioned in the notes that the boat was cashless, I only brought my card and couldn't pay a tip. All the staff were friendly and provided great service with smiles, so I regret not bringing a little cash.
The temperature setting on the bus was quite low, so it was really cold on the way back. I should have brought an extra bath towel or a light jacket as a precaution.
ピックアップしてくれる場所も、あらかじめ連絡のあったバスの目印も分かりやすかったです。
日本語対応可能なスタッフがいたので、困ることなかったです。
複数アクティビティも楽しめるし、船上では生LIVEもあり、とても楽しかったです。
注意事項に船上はキャッシュレスとあったので、カードのみ持参したため、チップを払うことができませんでした。スタッフ皆さん、笑顔で気持ちのいい対応をしてくれていたので、少しキャッシュを持参すれば良かったと後悔してます。
バスの温度設定がかなり低いため、帰りは本当に寒かったので、バスタオルを1枚余計に持参するとか、薄手の上着を持参する等、対策すればよかったです。
Thank you very much for participating in the tour. We are very pleased to hear that you had a great time. It can feel a bit chilly when returning to the boat from the water or on the return shuttle bus, so we think it's a good idea to bring a larger bath towel or a light jacket as you mentioned. Thank you for sharing your experience. From all of us at KBOS.
この度はツアーにご参加頂き誠にありがとうございました。楽しかったというお言葉を頂き大変嬉しく思っております。水から船上に戻った際や、帰りの送迎バス内で肌寒く感じる事がありますので、おっしゃって頂いております様に大きめのバスタオルや羽織ものをご持参頂くのは良いアイデアだと思います。ご自身のご体験をシェアして頂きありがとうございました。KBOS スタッフ一同
The activities and guidance at Kualoa were very good. It was especially helpful that the instructions were provided in both Japanese and English.
I was informed that I needed to bring an ID, and while my Japanese driver's license was accepted, they requested a passport.
Additionally, the waiting time on-site was quite long, and it would have been better to go on my own using The Bus.
クアロアでのアクティビティ、案内はとても良かったです。特に日本語と英語での案内なので助かります。
身分証明書を持参とのことでしたが、日本での運転免許証はokとのことでしたが、パスポートを求められます。
また、現地での待ち時間がとても長く、ザ・バスを使って自力でいくほうがよかったです♪
Since there were no reviews on this site, I looked up other sites (which also had mostly English posts), and I really wanted to try Sunset SUP and paddle in both the river and the ocean, so I decided to join this tour.
In conclusion, it was definitely the right choice to participate!
At the beginning of September, the sunset is around 18:30 to 19:00, so we started at 16:30. We departed from the ocean and entered the connected river. Just before we started, it rained for a moment, and while paddling, we were able to see a rainbow.
We were the only ones doing SUP, and paddling through the quiet and calm river surrounded by trees was a blissful experience. We even encountered a sea turtle. After paddling a long distance down the river and turning back to return to the ocean, the sun was beginning to set, and we leisurely watched the sunset there. Although we finished SUP before it got dark, we returned to the beach and watched the sunset before leaving the North Shore.
The guide couldn't speak Japanese, so we communicated in English, and despite my limited English skills, I managed to communicate and had a great time. Also, since I was worried about whether there would be Uber or buses, I included it in a private tour. I highly recommend participating!
当サイトにクチコミがなかったので他サイトでも調べ(そこでも英語の書き込みばかりでしたが)、どうしてもサンセットサップがやりたかったのと、川だけでなく海も漕ぎたかったのでこちらのツアーに参加することにしました。
結論、参加して大正解でした!
9月頭だと日没が18:30~19:00頃なので16:30にスタート。海を出発し、繋がっている川に入っていきます。直前に一瞬雨が降ったこともあり、漕ぎながら虹を見ることができました。
SUPをしている人は私たちしかおらず静かで穏やかな川を漕ぐのですが、木々に囲まれた川をゆったりと進むのは至福の時でした。ウミガメにも遭遇できました。長い距離川を漕ぎ、折り返してまた海に戻ってくると日が沈みかけており、そこで日没をゆったりと眺めました。暗くなる前にSUPは終了しましたが、ビーチに戻って日が暮れるのを見てノースショアを後にしました。
ガイドさんは日本語が話せず英語での会話をしましたが拙い英語力でもなんとかコミュニケーションをとって楽しい一時を過ごせました。また、今回はUberやバスがあるか不安だったので個人ツアーの中に組み込みました。是非参加することをお勧めします!
In mid-August, I experienced this with my 8-year-old daughter. Since my daughter is small, we didn't meet the weight requirement with other companies, but we were able to participate in this tour as we met the minimum here. I had imagined being secured in something like a simple chair, but I was surprised that we were only supported by a thick belt. When you jump, there's no sense of speed, and occasionally the wind blows and sways, but it gives you a strange feeling of floating in the sky. My daughter was a little scared (not to the point of crying), but I think it was a good experience for her to muster up the courage to jump! We were the first of five groups to jump, and while the others were jumping, my daughter got motion sickness. I think it's a good idea for those who are prone to motion sickness to bring anti-nausea medication and a bag for emergencies.
8月中旬、8歳娘と一緒に母娘で体験しました。
娘が小柄なので、他社さんでは合計体重が基準を下回っていましたが、こちらのツアーでは下限に達していたので参加できました。
簡易なイスのようなものに固定されるのを想像していましたが、実際には太いベルトのようなもので支えるだけで驚きました。飛び上がってしまうと、スピード感はなく、ときどき風が吹いて揺れますが、空に浮かんでいるような不思議な感覚です。
娘は少し怖がっていましたが(泣くほどではなく)、勇気を出して飛んだことは良い経験になったかなと思います!
5組のうち私たちが1番目に飛び、他の方が飛んでいる間に娘は船酔いしてしまいました。酔いやすい方は酔い止め&エチケット袋を持っておくと良いと思います。
The explanation was in English, so I couldn't understand what the instructor was saying. I was at the back, so there was a lot of dust. By the end, my ears were filled with dirt, and my T-shirt had dust on it from the seatbelt. It's good to bring a change of clothes, but I recommend bringing a towel! It helps to wash your hands and face properly. Wearing long pants is necessary to block out the sun. They give you a neck warmer-type bandana, but I think it's better to have a regular mask underneath that. The course was magnificent, and the scenery was great. However, there was a delay because the car in front of me broke down suddenly, which caused us to take a shortcut on the course (as mentioned by a Japanese person who experienced it before). That was disappointing, and I was also let down because I requested the afternoon session, but the pickup was at 8 AM, and I had nothing to do until it started at 12 PM.
英語での説明だったのでインストラクターの言っていることもわからずでした。
最後尾でついて行ったのでホコリがものすごかったです。終了時には耳の中も土埃、Tシャツにはシートベルトの跡がつくほど埃がついていました。着替え持参も良いですが、タオル持参!をオススメします。手や顔をしっかり洗えるから。
長ズボン着用は日差しを遮るのにも必要です。
ネックウォーマー型のバンダナ?をあてがわれますがその下に通常のマスクはあった方が良いと思います。
コースは雄大で景色も良かった〜。
ただ、目の前の車が急な故障で止まって時間のロスがありコースをショートカットされてしまいました。(以前に体験した日本人が言っていた)それが残念⤵だったのと午後の部希望したのにピックアップが8時で到着してから始まる12時まで何もすることなくてがっかりでした。
Lanai and Lanai City remind me of a Hawaiian version of Mayberry. Everyone knows one another and the slower pace and smaller scale was refreshing and brought back memories of my own childhood. Our guide, Joshua was a native and we enjoyed talking about the island, the State of Hawaii, and the state of the current political situation.
The wife and I enjoyed ourselves as we trekked across old pineapple fields seeing quail, turkeys, pheasant and deer. Their "Garden of the Gods" was a trip to a Martian landscape and afforded us a great view of Molokai. My only gripe is that we ran out of time and I wanted to see more.
It was a very enjoyable tour. I always enjoyed the ocean in Hawaii, but the mountains were amazing too! I was overwhelmed by the magnificent nature. In the second half, there was a spot where water splashed everywhere, and it was so much fun!
とても楽しいツアーでした。
いつもハワイは海を堪能していたのですが、山も最高でした!
雄大な自然に圧倒されました。
後半にはお水がバッシャーンとかかるスポットも用意されており、とっても盛り上がりました!
The bus provided pick-up near the hotel, and the interior was comfortable. When we arrived at the location, the Japanese staff explained everything in detail, which made it easy to enjoy without any worries. The horseback riding was all in English, but the staff were very kind, and riding while enjoying the stunning views was quite refreshing. I would definitely like to go again if I have the chance!
バスはホテルの近くから送迎があり、車内も快適でした。現地に着くと、日本人のスタッフが丁寧に説明してくれたので、不安もなく楽しむことができました。乗馬は全て英語でしたが、こちらもスタッフの方がとても優しく、絶景を見ながらの乗馬はかなりリフレッシュになりました。また機会があればぜひ行きたいです!
This time, I visited with my parents in their 60s, and everyone was extremely satisfied with the activity. We headed to the base camp by bus while feeling the magnificent nature of Kualoa Ranch, where we watched a Japanese instructional video and put on our harnesses. After that, we enjoyed the time on seven zip lines and two suspension bridges. Although there wasn't a Japanese guide, the three guides communicated with us throughout, and the atmosphere with the other group members was great, making the time fly by. The total duration was about 3 to 3.5 hours.
今回、60代の両親と共に訪れましたが全員大満足のアクティビティでした。
クアロアランチの壮大な自然を感じながらバスでベースキャンプまで向かい、そこで日本語のレクチャー動画を見てハーネスを装着。そこからは、7本のジップラインと2本の吊り橋を楽しむ時間でした。日本語のガイドはないけれど、3人のガイドさんが逐一コミュニケーションをとってくれるし、一緒のグループになった方々のノリもよくあっという間でした。
全体の所要時間は3時間〜3時間半でした。
This was my fifth time ziplining. The first line is thrilling, but the exhilaration and rush that you can't experience in daily life are the best. We were the only Japanese people there, but there were couples and families from various countries. It was fun to feel a sense of unity with simple English conversations. I'm definitely up for the challenge again!
5回目となるジップライン。1本目はドキドキですが日常生活では味わえないあのスリルと爽快感は最高です。日本人は私達2人だけでしたが、あとは色々な国から来たカップルや家族。簡単な英会話で一体感もあり楽しいですよ。また、チャレンジ決定です。
It was a lovely experience! Crew was amazing and entertainment was fun. Food was also very good. Only issue I had was I ordered 2 Mai tias. One alcoholic ,one non alcoholic and they charged me same price for each…$10 a piece. I do not think a drink that only contained fruit juice and no alcohol should have been the same price.
Other then that, it was a beautiful cruise
It was breathtaking to see the landscapes I had seen in Jurassic Park and LOST up close. The tour guide's American jokes were very funny.
ジュラシックパークやLOSTで観た風景を間近で観れるのは圧巻でした。
ツアーガイドさんのアメリカンジョークはとても面白かったです。
I learned a lot from actual episodes from World War II. I was particularly moved by the water burial of Japanese soldiers who died during the kamikaze missions by the United States Navy.
第二次世界大戦での実際にあったエピソードなど、勉強になりました。
特にアメリカ海軍による特攻で亡くなった日本兵の水葬などは感銘を受けました。
Mitch was awesome and very knowledgeable about the local ecology and pant species. We had a private tour and there was nobody else other than our party of four and our guide. Our whole family enjoyed the tour and the dip in the waterfall pool a lot.
Since it had been a while since my last visit to Hawaii, I requested a transfer from the airport to the hotel. I was informed in advance that there might not be staff at the airport desk during my flight's arrival time, so I was advised to call for assistance. However, I was able to quickly find the yellow desk, and there were staff members present, which was a relief. The driver was a local who spoke only English, and my fellow passengers were all Americans, but the ride went smoothly, and the driver was very kind, which I appreciated.
久しぶりのハワイだったので空港からホテルまでの送迎を頼みました。飛行機到着時刻からして係員が空港デスクにいない時間帯かもしれないので電話で呼んでくださいと予め案内がありましたが、実際には黄色いデスクもすぐ見つかり係の人もしっかり居てくださったので助かりました。ドライバーさんは現地の人英語のみで、同乗者もアメリカの方ばかりでしたが、スムーズにまた親切に送ってくださり良かったと思います。
This is a great family Luau, it was your ideal and Typical Luau. Food was buffet style and ready to go with pork, fish, and chicken options. The show completed the different dances of the different Polynesian islands and culture that you would expect and was colorfully narrated. The staff were very friendly and quick to serve. Price is very economical and affordable that was all inclusive with food and drinks. I recommend this packet for families who want to get a Luau in at a budget price.
Izzy was our tour guide she was super friendly and this was one of our highlights on our trip!
Aloha J,
Izzy does it again!
Izzy remains one of the top guides plying the Wailua River on her way to
the falls.
We need Izzy to write a handbook.
Will share your kind words with the champ.
Stay well and active.
A hui hou,
Micco/Head Guide
Even with standard seating our seats were close to the stage and our view was very good. Venue doesn’t offer the tropical and natural setting and backdrop (high rise in background of all our photos), but it was close to our hotel and didn’t consume several hours of our day/night going/returning on a bus.
Entertainment was very good and the food was good. All luaus are expensive, so no real bargains.
Overall, we are glad we went and had the experience.
Since my arrival was on a domestic flight in the evening, the airport was quiet, and there was no one at the designated location or counter. When I went outside and asked a bus driver who looked like the one in the photo, he told me that "Veltora" was different and directed me to ask over there, leading me to the international terminal. However, I couldn't find the place he mentioned, and when I called the local contact, they only spoke English. Somehow, I managed to return to the original domestic flight counter, and while I was going back, a person in green clothing said they would look for me. Just then, the driver I initially asked came running. I'm glad it was the first person I asked! After wandering for over 30 minutes, I got on the bus feeling somewhat unsettled.
到着が国内線で夕方だったので空港は閑散としていて指定の場所にもカウンターにも誰もいない、外に出て写真に似たバスの運転手に聞いてもベルトラは違うからあっちで聞いてくれと言われて国際線ターミナルの方に行かされたけど言われた場所もわからなく、現地の連絡先に電話しても英語しか通じず、なんとか元の国内線のカウンターに戻って、緑の服着た人が探すということで戻っていると最初に聞いた運転手が走って来た
最初に聞いた人でよかったんやん!30分以上彷徨ったので釈然としないままバスに乗りました
The guides were awesome! Beautiful scenary and going inside the caves was super cool!
