My 9-year-old child and husband participated! I was unfortunately unable to join because of my 2-year-old daughter, but my son said that one of the most fun things he experienced this time was flying in the sky. I think it was a very good experience for him. I was worried about the plan until just before, and I made the reservation in the middle of the night on the day of the event, but it was great that I could book smoothly. Also, since we stayed at Hilton, it was convenient to be close to the meeting point!

9歳の子供と夫が参加しました！
2歳の妹がいる為、私は参加できず残念でしたが、息子がこの度で1番楽しかったことの中に、空を飛んだこと。と言っていたのでとても良い経験になったのだと思います。
直前までプランに悩んでいて、当日の夜中に予約しましたが、スムーズに予約できたのも良かったです。
また、ステイ先もヒルトンだったので、集合に近く便利でした！

I am 64 years old. I participated because I wanted to see manta rays. The sunset was beautiful and wonderful. However, diving from the boat took courage. Swimming from there to the manta spot was tough, and I had to be pulled by the staff member. It was difficult to float while holding onto the frame and breathing through the snorkel, so I started to observe from the center of the floating frame, which was enough for me. I wonder if I was the only one who felt exhausted. I hope that the enjoyment of watching (which lasted about 20 to 30 minutes) could be a bit easier from the start. I was lucky that I could lie on the frame, which allowed me to use both hands freely for filming, but it was a bit tough until I settled down.

64歳です。見たかったマンタなので参加しました。
夕陽も美しく素晴らしかったです。でも、船からのダイブは勇気がいりました。そこからマンタスポットまで泳いでの移動もしんどくてスタッフのお兄さんに引っ張ってもらいました。両手で枠につかまりながらシュノーケルで息をしながら浮いて見ているのが辛かったので途中から浮き枠に乗って枠の中央から観察させてもらいましたが、それで十分でした。しんどさを感じたのは私だけなのでしょうか。観る楽しさ(20〜30分だったのでしょうか)も、最初からもう少し楽に楽しめたらいいなと思います。私は枠に腹ばいで乗れたおかげで両手が自由に使えて撮影も余裕でできたのでラッキーでしたが、落ち着くまではちょっとしんどかったです。

I participated alone, but I was able to enjoy the experience of encouraging Boe (the horse's name) to graze and giving a little kick to speed up, all while feeling a sense of tension until the end. I was very happy to have this dream-like first experience of riding a horse through the great outdoors in my mid-60s.

1人での参加でしたが、草を喰むBoe(馬の名前)を促すことや腹を蹴っての少しの早足も緊張感と共に最後まで楽しく体験できました。60代半ばで大自然の中を馬に乗って闊歩するという憧れのような初体験ができたことがとても嬉しかったです。

Although it was a very cloudy, overcast day, the staffing crew still made the trip a lot of fun.

We had the best time. Brought our grandkids ages 10 and 12 and they were entertained the entire time. I highly recommend this luau. The food was good much variety. It was a little chilly so bring a sweater. They had activities in the beginning also.

There is a pickup service from the center of Waikiki, and it takes about 30 minutes to board. Many foreigners participated, and the explanations after departure were primarily in English, but it wasn't a problem at all. About 20 to 30 minutes after departure, we were able to see whales around the area with Diamond Head in front of us. They were small, but we could see them spouting water multiple times and jumping, making the time fly by.

Since it’s a large boat, I think you don’t have to worry too much about it rocking, but it was cold inside the boat, so I recommend bringing a jacket!

ワイキキの中心部からの送迎ありで30分ほどで乗船。外国の方も多く参加されており、出発後の説明などは基本英語でしたが、困ることはなかったです。出発後20分から30分ほどでダイアモンドヘッドを正面に見渡すあたりでクジラを見ることができました。小さめでしたが、何度も潮を吹く様子やジャンプする姿など見ることができ、あっという間の時間でした。

大きな船なので揺れなどはそこまで心配しなくて良いかと思いますが、船内は寒かったので上着を持っていかれる事をお勧めします！

There were eight participants, including us (two people). The others were foreigners. The crew consisted of two young Western men. During the cruise, the crew provided explanations, but only in English. I read in reviews that there were hammocks on the boat where you could lie down, but we couldn't use them due to a lack of explanation. What a shame! On the day of the cruise, there was wind, and we moved without using the engine. Because of that, it was very quiet and nice. Just before getting off the boat, the crew mentioned to give tips, and everyone put them in a container. It might be worth trying at least once.

These guys did a great job. Saw many breaching whales! Some even waved at us. Crew was excellent

The upper deck was great for taking pictures. We started off with a charcuterie board that had tasty cheeses and fruit. The second course included lobster over a beet salad with a nice puree. My only reservation was the meat which was overcooked in my opinion, but to be fair, I'm sure many people prefer a medium-well filet. Taking pictures in between courses was a huge plus and didn't make us feel confined to the table. Overall, I would recommend this cruise to anyone looking for a good time.

Must see when in Hawaii it’s about a 20 minute boat ride out to the sandbar and there’s few companies have monopoly on it. However, they do make it enjoyable and relaxing. They have stand up paddle boards and kayaks for use but it’s only a small area you can go. This is just for relaxing and viewing Hawaii from a really beautiful location. Snorkeling isn’t the best because you’re only able to see a few fish. So what they could do better… selling or including drinks onboard. You have to bring everything with you although if you pay the fee you receive a bag of chips, a sandwich and juice/water. I didn’t like that we had to wear a life vest to snorkel, but maybe it’s to protect the coral so you don’t stand on it. Other than that the live music was awesome and everyone had fun.

This is my second time participating. The kids really wanted to go, so we chose the morning snorkeling. With breakfast and lunch included, we had a great time for two and a half hours. Thank you!

今回は２度目の参加となります。子供達が絶対に行きたいと希望したので朝からのシューノーケルにしました。朝食と昼食が付いて2時間半、たっぷりと楽しめました。ありがとうございます

I made a last-minute reservation for parasailing on the same day in the afternoon, and I challenged myself at the final slot (5:00 PM)! Everything from the reservation to the guidance on-site was smooth, and it became an unforgettable experience. I tend to get seasick, so I took motion sickness medication, but I think it's easier to get sick while moving on the small boat than when flying, so I recommend taking medication if you're worried about it. I definitely want to do it again!

思い立って当日の午後予約、最終（17:00）でパラセイリングにチャレンジしました！予約から現地での案内まで全てスムーズで、一生忘れられない体験となりました。私は船酔いしやすいので酔い止めの薬を服用しましたが、飛んでいる時よりも小型船で移動している時の方が酔いやすいかと思うので、心配な方は酔い止め服用をお勧めします。
また是非やりたいです！

The Japanese staff explained everything kindly and thoroughly, which was reassuring. The sea in March is a bit cold, so it's better to have a warm cover-up since you'll be taking the bus back in your swimsuit.

日本人スタッフの方が丁寧に優しく説明してくださって、心強かったです。
3月の海は少し冷たく、水着のままで帰りのバスに乗るので、あったかい羽織物ある方がよいです。

Since it was early in the morning around 9 o'clock, there were hardly any customers, and we waited about 30 minutes until departure. After that, a group arrived, and once the number of passengers was sufficient, we departed. This bus had a type where luggage was stored in the back, and I was able to sit comfortably in my seat.

朝早い９時ごろだったので、お客さんはほとんどいなくて出発まで30分ほど待った。
その後グループが来て人数がまとまったので発車となった。
今回のバスは後ろに荷物を積むタイプで、座席にはストレスなく座れた。

Had a great time, and our tour guide was great. Calm water during the kayak, easy hike, and refreshing swim at the Secret Falls.

Great experience from pick up to a relaxing day at the beach enjoying Hawaii’s beautiful landscapes!!
Capt Bob and his crew were excellent.

In Japan, you cannot operate a jet ski without a license, so you can only ride as a passenger, which is boring. However, in Hawaii, you can operate one without a license (within limited water areas, but it's still quite exhilarating)! You also receive photos and video data, making it a great keepsake. I think the experience cost is reasonable. It's a recommended activity.

Access to the experience location requires a car or bus, but you can easily get there by bus from the Waikiki area.

ジェットスキーは免許がなければ日本では操縦できず、後ろに抱っこ搭乗するしかなく、つまらないのですが、ハワイでは（限られた水域内ですが十分爽快）免許なしで操縦させてもらえます！写真や動画データももらえるので、良い記念になると思います。体験費用もリーズナブルだと思います。おすすめのアクティビティです。
体験場所へのアクセスは、車、バス利用等が必要になりますが、バスでも問題なくワイキキ近辺から行くことができます。

The initial explanation was like a menu, and there was a Japanese translation guide available. The announcements and commentary on the ship were in English only. I used a translation app to somewhat understand. There were many customers, both Japanese and foreign. I couldn't see clearly up close, but from a distance, I could see the spouting and the back! Above all, the wind was really strong and cold; motion sickness medication is a must! There was an announcement to consult the tour guide if you feel unwell. I'm glad it didn't rain, and the view of Diamond Head from the sea was very beautiful.

最初の説明はメニューみたいな感じで日本語訳の説明書あり。

何より風がすごい強くて寒かったです、酔い止めは必須です！体調悪くなったら添乗員に相談してくださいとアナウンスありました。
雨が降らなくて良かった、海からのダイアモンドヘッドもとても綺麗でした。

Initially, I had asked someone else to drive, but I was encouraged to drive myself. The controls were simple, and I was able to enjoy the immersive experience, which was great. Since we traveled on mostly unpaved roads, there was a lot of dust, and my clothes ended up completely white. It's best to wear clothes that you don't mind getting dirty. Being a filming location for Jurassic Park, the magnificent scenery was breathtaking.

当初運転は向こうの方にお願いしてたのだけど、勧められて自分が運転する事に。でも操作は簡単で臨場感を味わえたのでよかった。ほぼ舗装されてない道を行くので砂埃がすごく服は真っ白に。汚れてもいい服装がベスト。ジェラシックパークのロケ地とあって、雄大な景色に圧巻でした。

Embarking on the snorkeling and kayaking adventure at Sanbar was an unforgettable experience that truly encapsulated the essence of exploring nature's underwater marvels while enjoying the serene beauty of the open waters. The crystal-clear waters offered an unobstructed view of vibrant marine life and mesmerizing coral formations, making the snorkeling experience nothing short of magical. Each moment spent underwater felt like being in a different world, surrounded by a kaleidoscope of colors and life.

The kayaking segment of our adventure was equally impressive. Paddling through the calm waters with the sun casting a golden hue over the landscape was incredibly peaceful and allowed for a unique perspective of the Sanbar's picturesque coastline. The kayaks were well-maintained and easy to maneuver, making the experience enjoyable for both beginners and experienced kayakers alike.

What truly made the experience stand out was the exceptional guidance and support from the staff. Their expertise and passion for the marine environment were evident, as they pointed out interesting flora and fauna, ensuring we didn't miss any of the hidden gems beneath the waves or along the shore.

Overall, the snorkeling and kayaking experience at Sanbar is a must-do for anyone looking to immerse themselves in the beauty of nature, whether underwater or gliding on the surface. It's an ideal adventure for those seeking tranquility, excitement, and a deeper appreciation for the natural world.

We participated in a four-wheeler buggy tour as a couple. The experience of driving through the majestic mountains of Hawaii is something you won't easily find elsewhere, and it's an activity I highly recommend for car enthusiasts.

ハワイの神々しい山中の自然を車で走る体験はなかなか味わえないもので、車好きにはお勧めのアクティビティです。

The tour guide KAAKA was full of spirit and made it incredibly enjoyable! The scenery was beautiful, and they took a lot of photos for us!

添乗員のKAAKA？がサービス精神旺盛で最高に楽しめました！
景色もいいし、写真もたくさん撮ってくれました！

I was inspired to participate after seeing a former professional baseball player use this service on a TV program during his trip to Hawaii.

I was picked up at the hotel and arrived at the port while enjoying the view of the steep cliffs on the way to Kaneohe Bay. After using the restroom next to the parking lot, I took off my shoes and boarded barefoot.

We moved while observing heart-shaped coral reefs and honu, anchoring near the activity boat displaying the international A flag. Due to the spring tide, the morning tour had lower tides, but it was fully booked. The water depth was about 90 cm. Although the sun was out, the waves and current from the offshore wind felt strong.

I snorkeled with my wife and was able to see the coral, honu, and fish beautifully. Stand-up paddling (SUP) was more challenging than I expected.

On the boat, I enjoyed coffee, apples, and spam while chatting with a female staff member about her trip to Japan, and before I knew it, it was time to return to the port. She pointed out my eye color and told me I have hazel eyes, which led to an interesting discussion about mixed genetics. (We also laughed about what the lesson from Urashima Taro might be.)

After boarding the bus, I realized I couldn't find the belt where I had put my cash. I searched with a staff member who also had hazel eyes named Franky. I was about to give up when I saw Franky desperately searching even in the restroom trash can, and then I noticed something at my neck... Sorry, it was there all along.

We arrived safely at the hotel. Thank you so much!!!

I wanted to try the malasadas from Leonard's Bakery, which the shuttle driver highly recommended, but there wasn't enough time to stop.

I recommend everyone bring marine shoes, a waterproof case for your smartphone, and a hoodie.

Thank you so much to all the staff. See ya!

TV番組で元プロ野球選手が、ハワイに行った際に利用したのを観たのが参加するきっかけとなりました。
ホテルでピックアップされ、カネオヘ湾に向かう途中の急峻な崖を観ながら港に到着。駐車場脇のレストルームで用を足し、シューズを脱いで裸足で乗船。
ハートマークの珊瑚礁、ホヌを観ながら移動、国際A旗が掲げられているアクティビティー船近くに錨泊。
　大潮で条件としては朝のツアーの方が、潮が引いていたのですが、予約が埋まっていました。水深90CMくらいかな。日光は出ていましたが、沖からの風で波、潮の流れがきつい様に感じました。
　妻と一緒にシュノーケリング。珊瑚、ホヌ、魚を綺麗に観られました。
SUP　思った以上に立ってパドリングするのは難しかったです。
　船の上でコーヒー、りんご、スパムを食べ女性スタッフと、日本に旅行しに行った話しをしていたら、あっといううまに帰港の時間。瞳の色に着目され自分がヘーゼルだと教えてもらい、遺伝子がミックスされる事が面白いという思考が有るのを教えてもらいました。（あと、浦島太郎の教訓はなんだろうって事も笑）
　バスに乗車後キャッシュを入れたベルトが見当たらない事に気づき、その女性スタッフと同じヘーゼルの瞳を持つ　FRANKYと一緒に探してもらいました。見つからないので、諦め掛けていましたがFRANKYがトイレのゴミ箱まで開け必死に探している姿をみたとき、何気に自分の首元に視線が、、、、、ごめんなさい。有りました。
事なき得て無事ホテル着。 本当にありがとう！！！

　シャトルの運転手さん激押しのレナーズべーカリーのマラサダ食べたかったけど、寄る時間無かったのね。

　みなさん　マリンシューズとスマホ防水ケースあとパーカー持参がおすすめ。

　スタッフの皆さん　Thank you so much.　See ya!
　

This is my second time in Hawaii. Last time, I used the shuttle service from H●S. I thought this time would be similar, where we would board the vehicle in the order we arrived and depart. However, since there were three groups of users, everyone waited for us because we were delayed picking up the stroller. During the ride, there were no issues with communication, just confirming the hotel and the order of stops.

ハワイ2回目。前回はH●Sさんの送迎を利用しました。
前回は来た順に車に乗り込み＆出発…だったので今回も同様かなと思いきや、私たち含め3組の利用者だったためか、ベビーカーのピックアップで遅れた私たちをみなさん待っててくださいました。
道中は、ホテルの確認や、何番目に止まるなどの確認くらいで、コミュニケーションには問題がなかったです。

The tour had breathtaking views, and both our guide Zoe and the boat drivers were incredibly kind, making the experience absolutely worth it.

The raptor tour at the ranch and the guides where so much fun and would love to do it again.

The transportation is a while nother issue. We needed to be to the bus pick up by 815 to check in for our 830 departure. Was told at pick up no food or drinks on the bus so we thought we could eat when we got there.

Bus left at 830 and arrived at 920 where we where kept in the bus for another 10 plus min for no reason given to us. A bus that had no working bathroom. When released we where told we had to gather for a briefing and couldn't use the restroom or we'd miss it itinerary.

Spent another 10 min for everyone on the bus to get a paper with their activities printed on it. Then we where lead into the ranch and briefed on every actively before being turned loose with just enough time to go-to the bathroom and report for our your at 1015.

After the two hour tour (great time) we had barley enough time to wash and get back on the bus. We where hungry and wanted to eat and shop for souvenirs but instead had to wait till we got back to our hotel at 2pm

No eating 8am to 2pm
Would have spent at least another $100 on food and gifts if given the time. Would never take their transportation again. Find your own way!

I heard that a wetsuit is essential for the ocean in Hawaii during winter, so I thought it would be convenient to have it included in the tour price without any additional fees. Since I was a beginner in both Hawaii and snorkeling, I hoped for a tour without needing to rent a wetsuit. We went at a leisurely pace and had an incredibly valuable experience, going to very deep spots. The kids seemed to be impressed as well, saying they were scared but excited to see the fish!

冬のハワイの海はウエットスーツ必須ですよ、とのことだったのでもう先にツアー料金に組み込んで頂き、追加料金の発生が無いと便利だなと思った。ハワイもシュノーケルも初心者だったため、ウエットスーツは頼まずツアー希望していた。ゆっくりペースでとても深いところまで行ったりしてすごく貴重な体験をした。子供達も印象的だったようで、怖かったけどお魚さん見れた！と興奮していた。

Until I reached the top, I felt as if I was slipping down from my backside while shouting, but once I got to the top, I was able to enjoy a wonderful view of Diamond Head and the ocean in the distance. It was thrilling and fun!

We had an Absolute Wonderful Experience.. We had a group of 8 Family members.
We all Really Learned a lot about the culture.
Had the entire day package.
Thanks to Each and Every One who work to give us such an Outstanding Day. Ending with a Magnificent Breath of Life Performance.
Outstanding.

It was no one’s fault that the day we went was windy and they had to turn the boat around after they said “this is where most whales hang around.” We got to see a blow hole and one fluke which was fun but it was at the very end of our trip so we didn’t get to stay and watch the group of whales any further. The captain did delay our return 15 minutes to see the whale that we did see which was very nice! Overall, it was no one’s fault that the weather wasn’t the best but to me it felt like a waste of my time and money and I was disappointed in the end
