My hubby and I wanted a more intimate luau experience…something more like a real family luau! We found it! Although there was no emu ceremony, we were immediately seated and our drink orders taken. Then we were invited to a lovely buffet without having to wait…delicious mahi, chicken and the most delicious pork I have ever had at ANY luau! Decadent desserts too - yum! After dinner, we experienced a one hour Hawaiian luau show. The dancers were extremely skilled and their performances very entertaining. The fire knife dancer was excellent and never dropped a fire stick. Music, songs, dancing and continued drink service during a lovely sunset and a twinkle-lit venue.

We loved the experience and enjoyed it immensely….fabulous food, positive personalities, delightful dancers, melodious music - the perfect evening at a more affordable price! We’ll be back with more family!

Excellent!! We like it so much. Only the drink that you gave is not good. But all was amazing.

At first, I saw a small whale, about 5 meters long, showing its dorsal fin and tail fin about three times. After that, I spotted a mother whale, which seemed to be just under 10 meters long, showing its dorsal fin and spouting water about three times. The waves were about 3 meters high, and the boat rocked a bit, but it was very enjoyable.

初め、子クジラとみられる５ｍくらいのが背びれ、尾びれが3回くらい見れた。
そのあと、母クジラとみられる１０ｍ弱のが、背びれと潮吹きが3回くらい見られた。波は３ｍくらいあり、船は多少揺れたが、とても楽しかった。

Fun interesting tour. Very beautiful river. The chicken were funny.

This was my second time parasailing in Hawaii. This time, I traveled with my elderly mother, and since we were in Hawaii, I wanted to include some ocean activities for her as well. The boat does sway during the ride, so I think anyone who can brace themselves and maintain a seated position (as you take off from that position) can participate, even if they're older.

In the end, my mother was very satisfied, and it seems this became her favorite memory from the trip. For those who want photos, they take about 150 pictures of you in the air and the scenery from the boat, and after disembarking, they transfer the data to your phone right there. It comes with a memory card for $50. I usually don't buy many photos from tourist spots, but these turned out really well, and I'm happy with them.

ハワイでのパラセーリング2回目です。
今回は高齢の母と2人旅、せっかくのハワイなので母にも海のアクティビティを取り入れたくて参加しました。
ボートで移動時に揺れますので、その揺れを踏ん張れる方、長座の姿勢がとれる方(その体制から飛ぶので)であれば高齢でも参加できるかと思います。
結果、母大満足、今回の旅で1番の思い出になった様です。
写真が欲しい人は上空での様子やボートからの景色を150枚ほど撮ってくれて下船後にその場でデータを携帯に移行してくれます。メモリーカードも付いて50ドル。観光地の写真はあまり買わないのですが、よく撮れてて気に入ってます。

Unfortunately, I was disappointed that I couldn't see the whales. I thought they would give us tickets for the following day if we couldn't see them, but I didn't receive any explanation or tickets.

あいにくクジラは見れなくて残念でした。
見れなかったら翌日以降のチケットをくれると思っていたが、何も説明もなく貰えなかった。

Although the day was grey and windy....the day at sea was excellent. Whales were not seen, but everything from the crew and staff members were excellent. The naturalist on board was so informative and wandered the ship answering all our questions. she was so easy to talk to and answered all our questions even the silly ones. Since we did and early morning cruise. we had coffees and snacks...dont forget to get the Mac nut cookies.....they are the best! We will do it again and hopefully have better luck in viewing....

We were able to enjoy snorkeling, kayaking, stand-up paddleboarding, and volleyball for two and a half hours for free. I think it's a great deal since it includes these activities and allows you to experience the precious scenery of the sandbar. I recommend it for groups who love activities or siblings. Even grandparents who didn't go into the water enjoyed the scenery and live music. The water depth is about chest to waist high. They mentioned that it's usually like this. It's a good depth for activities, but if you're expecting a sandy beach at the sandbar, you might want to consider other tours. Also, there are no showers. If that's a concern, it might be good to bring some water to rinse off a bit after changing.

シュノーケリング、カヤック、サップ、バレーボールが2時間半、無料で出来ました。
これらの費用込み、サンドバーという貴重な景色も味わえるので、お得だと思います。
アクテビティ好きのグループや兄弟などにお勧め。
海に入らない、祖父母さんなんかも、景色と生演奏で、楽んでおられました。
水深は胸から腰ぐらいの深さ。だいたいいつもこんな感じだと言っておられました。アクテビティにはちょうど良い深さですが、砂浜のサンドバーを期待するなら、他のツアーなのかなぁと思います。
あと、シャワーはありません。気になる方は、着替え後に、ちょっと洗う、水を持って行くと良いかも。

I thought it might be a bit lacking, as it seemed like just running in a line while watching videos, but in the second half, there were many moments splashing water in the stream, making it a very enjoyable experience. I would love to do it again if I have the chance.

ビデオ等を見ていると列に繋がって走る感じでイマイチかな？と思っていましたが後半に小川で水飛沫を上げるところが多く、大変楽しい体験でした。機会があれば又なりたいです。

Food was better than expected, and the plantation grounds are breathtaking beauty.

Kauai is the garden island for a reason. Seeing it all from above was unreal!

So Much Fun!!! Upspeed Lazy River with Adrenaline rushes!!

Really phenomenal day, the falls were like no other, how I wish to be back in Kauai!

Great way to pre-order and have passport ready to avoid the day of lines!

Really well maintained trail, gorgeous grounds and fun as they are single ATVS!!

Right on HHV grounds, easy to get too, a wonderful night!

Solemn day in history, but happy that while on island we got to see the spot where all took place.

I felt like I got to see all the best spots of Big Island on this 1 day tour!

Fabulous day, getting to get into the sea caves was the best!

Delish food, fun times and gorgeous views! Worth it!

Four years ago, I visited Waipi'o Valley and took photos from the observation deck. I joined this tour because it allows you to drive down to places that ordinary people can't access! The slope was steeper than I expected, and the driving was very slow and cautious. The guide spoke entirely in English, so I didn't understand anything, but the other foreign guests in the car were laughing and asking questions, so I think it was a good guide. It was fun to drive into the river and cross it; it felt like an attraction!

４年前に来た時は展望台から眺めて写真を撮ったワイピオ渓谷。こちらのツアーでは普通の人が行けない場所まで車で下って行けるとの事で参加しました！
思ってた以上に急斜面で、かなりゆっくり慎重に運転されてました。ガイドは完全に英語でしたので、私は全くわからずでしたが、車内の他の外国人の方は笑ったり質問したりしていたので、良いガイドさんだったと思います^_^河に車で入って横切ったりと、アトラクション的な感じもあったので、楽しかったです！

I participated in my first snorkeling tour because I wanted to create memorable experiences on my honeymoon! Although I had some anxiety, the instructor spoke Japanese fluently, which made me feel very secure, and I was able to enjoy the experience without any difficulties, even as a beginner.

At first, I struggled to get used to breathing underwater, but the instructor held my hand and supported me throughout, always keeping an eye on all the participants. It seemed like we had good conditions that day, as we were able to go quite far and even encountered six sea turtles. However, depending on the type of participants (some were too scared to go deeper) and the sea conditions (like wind and waves), experiences may vary on different days, so some might find it less satisfying.

I truly had a wonderful experience, and thanks to Dan and Chieko, my honeymoon became an unforgettable one! One thing to note is that since it was my first time snorkeling, I felt a bit seasick, so I wish I had taken motion sickness medication beforehand. As someone who gets cold easily, even with a wetsuit, I still felt chilly at the seabed. Swimming for about an hour was quite tiring physically. I think it would be more enjoyable to participate in good health, especially considering the fatigue from traveling.

I noticed that they were attentive to those who seemed unwell, offering support and even having them sit in the front seat of the car on the way back. I believe they provided the best service possible. I highly recommend it!

新婚旅行で何か思い出に残ることがしたいと初めてのシュノーケリングツアーに参加しました！
不安もありましたが日本語を完全に話せるインストラクターさんなのでとても安心でき、初めてでも不自由なく過ごすことができました。
潜ってすぐは呼吸に慣れず手こずりましたがずっと手を繋いでサポートしてくれ、終始参加者全員のことを気にかけてくれていました。
条件がいい日だったようでかなり奥まで行けてウミガメ6匹とも会うことができましたが、参加者のタイプだったり（怖がって奥まで行けない方もいると仰ってました）、海の状況を見て（風や波など）参加日によってかなり違うと思うので物足りない方もいるのかもしれません。
私は本当に素晴らしい体験をさせて頂き、ダンさんチエコさんのおかげで一生忘れられない新婚旅行になりました！
注意点は初めてのシュノーケリングだったので少し波酔いしてしまったので酔い止めを飲んでおけば良かったと思います。冬の参加で寒がりの私はウエットスーツをお借りしても海底は寒く感じました。1時間ほどずっと泳ぐのでかなり体力的には疲れを感じました。旅の疲れもある中で体調は万全にして参加した方がより楽しめるかと思います。
気分が悪そうな方には声をかけていたり帰りの車は助手席に乗せていたり常に最善のサービスを届けて下さったと思います。おすすめです！

On the last day of the year, three generations participated, from an 8-year-old to someone in their late 60s. We were very satisfied with the wonderful hospitality of the captain and the staff.

My daughter, who can't swim, borrowed a yellow board-like device that allows you to see underwater while snorkeling and had a great time. While the staff entertained my daughter, I was able to enjoy snorkeling as well. The grandparents in their 60s, who were worried about the cold water and swimming, were happy to relax on the boat with a cup of coffee.

I would love to participate again if the opportunity arises. Thank you to all the staff!

年末最終日に、8才から60代後半までの三世代で参加。船長さん、スタッフさんの素晴らしいホスピタリティで大満足でした。

泳げない娘は、シュノーケリング中、海の中がのぞける黄色いボードのような道具を借りて楽しむことに。スタッフさんが娘の相手をしてくれている間、私もシュノーケリングを楽しむことができました。水が冷たく、泳ぎが不安だった60代の祖父母は、船上でコーヒーを飲みながらのんびり過ごせてよかったそうです。

またチャンスがあれば参加したいです。スタッフのみなさま、ありがとうございました。

I participated in a honeymoon trip at the end of January. I checked in at 8:00 and we departed right on time at 8:45! It seems like checking in just 15 minutes before departure would still be fine.

Onboard, you can purchase drinks and light snacks like bagels. The ship has four floors, and the restrooms were clean and plentiful, which was reassuring.

It was a whale watching tour, and we were lucky to see a pod of dolphins right after we set sail! We also caught a few glimpses of the whales, which was incredibly exciting, especially when we saw their tails! (Due to conservation regulations, we couldn't get too close.) It was a tour that satisfied my desire to experience the grandeur of the ocean and see wild whales.

ハネムーン旅行で、1月末に参加しました。
8:00に受付でチェックインして、8:45に定刻通り出航しました！チェックインは出航時間の15分前とかでも全然間に合いそうな感じです。
船内ではドリンクやベーグルなどの軽食が購入出来ます。4階建ての船で、トイレも綺麗で数も多かったので安心できました。

ホエールウォッチングツアーでしたが、出航してすぐにイルカの群れも見れてラッキーでした！
本命のクジラは、ぴょこっと出てくれたのが数回あり、尻尾も見れて大感動です！！
(保護動物のため、近距離まで近づくことは出来ないまたいです)
海の壮大さと野生のクジラに満足出来るツアーでした。

This time, we participated in a four-wheeler buggy tour as a family! It was an exhilarating tour that raced through the mountains!

It's definitely worth joining!

今回は四輪バギーを家族で参加しました！山々を駆け抜けて迫力満点なツアーでした！

ぜひ、参加している価値ありです！

I participated in this tour in late January. I was able to see the blowing, but unfortunately, I couldn't spot any whales. However, I enjoyed the view of Oahu Island from the sea. As you may know, the announcements are only in English. The air conditioning inside the boat was quite strong, so it was a bit cold, and having a jacket would have been better. Also, depending on the day, it can be quite windy outside, which might feel chilly. I hope to join again next time and see some whales.

1月下旬にこちらのツアーに参加しました。
ブローイングを見ることはできましたが、残念ながらクジラの姿を見ることはできませんでした。
しかし、海からのオアフ島の景色を楽しむことが出来ました。ご存知かと思いますが、アナウンスは英語のみです。
船内は冷房がとても効いていて、少々寒かったので上着があった方が良かったです。また船外も日によりますが、風がかなり強く肌寒く感じると思います。
次回は見れることを願って参加します。

I think those with a fear of heights should refrain from this activity. However, for those who don't, it's the best activity. You can't experience this in Japan, so I definitely recommend giving it a try.

さすがに高所恐怖症の方は控えたほうがいいと思います。が、そうでない方にとっては最高のアクティビティです。日本では体験できませんのでぜひやってみて欲しいです。

I used the service for a round trip.
The airport transfer arrived earlier than the scheduled arrival time at the hotel.
The driving was smooth, and the air conditioning in the car was effective, making it comfortable!

往復で利用しました。
空港までの送迎は、ホテル到着予定時間より早めに来ていました。
運転もスムーズで車内のクーラーも効いていて快適でした！

Even though the water was a bit chilly we had a lot of fun. The singing was sensational on the way there. We saw a bunch of big fish after walking a hundred steps, there were a lot more colorful ones near the corals. After snorkeling , we did a bit of kayaking as well, the sun came out and we warmed up. Tip: look up low tide times a few days ahead and book appropriate sessions, we didn’t do that so the sandbar was not visible.

It was December, so the sea was quite cold, but I had an amazing time! The sandbar was stunning, and the hamburger was delicious! During snorkeling, I was lucky enough to see a sea turtle, which made for a very fulfilling experience! But next time, I think I want to go during a warmer season.

12月でしたので海がまぁまぁ冷たかったですが、めちゃくちゃ楽しかったです！
サンドバーは絶景でしたし、ハンバーガーも美味しかった！
シュノーケリングでは、運良くウミガメを見ることも出来てとても充実した時間でした！
でも今度は暖かい時期に行きたいかな。
