We loved our e-bike tour! Our guide was very attentive and always willing to help! They took really good care of us! The views are stunning!
Would do it again!

There is a ticket counter on the seaside of the Hilton where you can also book the same tour. It's significantly cheaper to book from there, but since we have small children, we specifically chose to book here because it offered Japanese narration. However, when we inquired on the day of the tour, we were told there was no Japanese available. In the end, we didn't understand the explanations well and couldn't enjoy it much. I'm really disappointed.

ヒルトンの海側に窓口があって、そこでも同じツアーが申し込めます。
そので申し込む方がかなり安いのですが、小さい子もいるため、日本語ナレーション付きだということでこちらからわざわざ申し込みました。
それなのに、当日潜水艦になって聞いてみると、ノージャパニーズ。と言われました。
結局説明はよくわからず、あまり楽しめませんでした。がっかりです。

I tried surfing for the first time. They teach you carefully so that even beginners can understand, and when you're about to catch a wave, they guide you by saying, "Paddle and ride now!" After a few tries, I was able to ride the waves! Even in group lessons, you get to ride quite a number of waves, so I felt very satisfied.

*Tips are not included in the tour price, so it's recommended to bring cash. Depending on the group, there are usually about two trainers, so I think it's good to bring around three $10 bills.

初めてサーフィンをしました。
初めてでもわかるように丁寧に教えてくれるし、
波に乗る時は、教えくれて、漕いで今乗れーと、教えてくれるので、数回やると、乗れるようになりました！
グループレッスンでも、かなりの数の波に乗れるので、とても満足感があります。
※チップはツアー料金に含まれないので、現金で持参がおすすめです。グループによりますが、トレーナーが2名位いるので、10ドル札を3枚くらい持参が良いと思います

Its a rain or shine experienced but its awesome...My 7yo son is biracial Filipino Taiwanese and cannot understand english but he clapped like an adult during the HA a breath of life show... the fire dance by the samoan made him amaze...the food at gateway was perfect...I've seen so many Filipinos in the buffet area assesting us... So many crew assesting in the tribes sometimes I felt overwhelmed yet its good...the missionaries were good too... the asked me both are approachable too...they all smile...I'm so proud that they have Filipino and other asian workers...Mabuhay
PS. I liked the bus driver Shaft so funny and informative

Our driver/guide made the entire tour entertaining and with fun learning about Hawaiian history.

I had a great time. There were various activities, and I really enjoyed myself. I was able to meet turtles, which became an unforgettable memory for me. This is a tour I can recommend to anyone.

とても楽しかったです。
いろいろなアクティビティがあり、楽しめました。亀に会うことができ、一生忘れられない思い出になりました。
どんな方にもおすめできるツアーです。

Thank you very much for kindly instructing my family, who had the selfish desire to surf starting from New Year's Day. A long time ago, when I came to Hawaii, the lively sight of people surfing left a lasting impression on me, and I had always wanted to try surfing the next time I visited Hawaii. This time, it became a reality and a challenge after turning sixty, but I was able to experience it with my family.

The instructor was very kind and explained everything clearly. Although it was a short time, everyone managed to get on the board and even ride some waves, making us feel like we had joined the ranks of surfers. This activity became a precious page in the memories of our trip to Hawaii. I am grateful for the wonderful encounter with the instructor. Surfing is the best!

元旦からサーフィンをしたいというわがままな家族に大変親切に指導していただきありがとうございました。
だいぶ以前にハワイに来た時に、サーフィンをやっている人の海に入っていく時の生き生きとした姿が目に焼き付いており、次にハワイ来たときは絶対にサーフィンをやってみたいと思っていました。今回、還暦を過ぎての実現、挑戦となってしまいましたが、家族と一緒に体験させていただきました。
インストラクターの方はとても親切で教え方もわかりやすく、短時間でしたが、皆、何とか板の上にも乗ることができ、形なりにも波にも乗ることができて、サーファーの仲間入りしたような気分にさせていただきました。
このアクティビティはハワイの旅の貴重な思い出の一ページになりました。
素晴らしいインストラクターとの出会いに感謝いたします。サーフィン最高。

When you go to the reception at check-in time, you are first seated at a long table outside. The spacing between the chairs is a bit tight, so it feels like you're crammed in among strangers.

You receive a complimentary welcome drink, along with two free drink vouchers (you can choose whether they include alcohol). The meals are served buffet-style, and there were also some light entertainment during the meal. The taste was average, but the drinks (cocktails) were delicious.

Before long, we were guided inside the venue to watch the show, and finally, it was time for the Hawaiian show.

It started with hula dancing, followed by impersonations of Elvis Presley, Michael Jackson, and Diana Ross, and there was also a fire dance. The quality of the show was high, and I really enjoyed it.

チェックインタイムに受け付けに行くと、まず外にある長いテーブルに座らされます。椅子の間隔がやや狭いので、知らない人の中に詰め込まれる感じです。

無料のウェルカムドリンク、それとは別にドリンク２杯の無料券がもらえます(アルコール有無が選択できる)。
食事はビッフェ形式で、食事中もちょっとした余興がありました。お味は普通かな。飲み物(カクテル)は、美味しかったです。

そうこうしているうちに、ショーを見るために館内へ入るように案内され、いよいよハワイアンショーです。

フラダンスに始まり、エルビス・プレスリー、マイケル・ジャクソン、ダイアナ・ロスのそっくりさんショーがあり、ファイアーダンスもありました。ショーの完成度は高く楽しめました。

We were able to participate as a family. There was an initial explanation, but I could hardly understand it in English. Just before entering the water, I realized that wearing the rental life jackets was not optional for those diving; everyone had to wear one. It would be easier to understand if there were boards displaying information in multiple languages.

The snorkeling was fantastic, with clear weather and a wonderful encounter with a turtle. There were some waves as we headed out to sea, and I got a bit seasick. Participants should be cautious about that. However, even in that situation, I felt safe. The staff were kind and helped me recover quickly.

At the end, we took a commemorative photo with the staff. It was a great memory to be able to swim with the turtle as well.

家族で参加できました。
最初の説明がありましたが、英語でほとんど理解できず、海に入る直前に、レンタルの救命胴衣は希望者ではなく、潜る人は皆着用必須であることがわかりました。各国語表示の掲示板のようなものがあると理解しやすいのになと思います。
シュノーケリングは天候も快晴でカメさんとの出会いもあり最高でした。
沖合に出るため、多少波があり、波酔してしまいました。参加する人は注意しましょう。しかしそうなっても、安心です。スタッフさんが優しく対応してくれすぐに回復しました。
最後はスタッフさんと記念撮影。亀さんとも一緒に泳ぐことができいい思い出になりました。

現地1/30(月)
母の還暦祝いにハワイ旅行をプレゼントしました。
1月下旬のハワイは風が強いためかなり肌寒く、スコール頻度が高かったです。

ツアーには日本人が3組と、外国人が3.4組ほどの合同でホテルまでの送迎付きで参加しました。

CMでよく見るサンドバーを想像していましたが、着いた時は曇天、潮位も腰ぐらい、水温もかなり冷たかったので、想像してたのとは違いがありました。
サンドバーでは同じツアーの日本人家族とバレーボールで激しく動いたのでその時は寒さを感じませんでした(笑)
船に戻るとものすごく寒すぎて日本人はみなブルブル震えていました。なので、タオルは多めで大きいの、羽織物も必須です。
船上では、日本人女性ガイドさんが親切にわかりやすく説明してくれました。
昼食は船上で焼いたハンバーガー
美味しかったです♪

ウミガメウォッチングでは、見事に大きなウミガメが何匹も海面に顔を出していました！
さらに、人生初大きな野生のマンタにも会うことができました！

シュノーケリング
思ってたよりかなり深く水深は約10-15mとのこと。
前日の大雨やスコールの影響で水中はかなり濁ってました。
近くまでいかないと何も見えない状況下の中で、なんとか大きな珊瑚と小魚見つけました(笑)
さらに急に野生のウミガメが現れてビックリ！
水温がかなり低かったので長居は出来ませんでしたが、貴重な体験をすることが出来ました！

ハワイ初シュノーケルは天候に恵まれなかったので残念でしたが、ツアー自体は見応えあって満足しています！
次こそは乾季の時期にもう一度トライしたいと思います！

I enjoyed the night show from a very good seat. The dance show was on a large scale and was even more amazing than I had imagined. I'm glad I participated.

ナイトショーはとても良い席で楽しませていただきました。
ダンスショーは規模が大きくて想像しているよりも凄く、
参加してよかったです。

I challenged myself to horseback riding at Kualoa Ranch, located about an hour by bus from Honolulu.

It seems to be a very popular tour, as the large shuttle bus was nearly full with other guests heading to different attractions at the ranch.

Horseback riding check-in times are divided into groups of about 5 to 6 people. I should have stored my belongings in a locker before that time, but I had a bit of trouble. I regret not having checked in my things earlier.

Video recording is prohibited, but photography is allowed. It's convenient to have a neck strap for your smartphone.

You confirm how to ride and safety precautions by watching a video in Japanese. Then, you immediately get on the horse, and the approximately two-hour horseback riding tour begins without any practice.

One instructor and 5 to 6 beginners start riding through the woods. This casual vibe definitely gives off an American impression.

After a while, I could see the green of the steep mountains on my left, cliffs on my right, and the blue sea stretching beyond the cliffs. It was breathtakingly beautiful. However, since I was on a mischievous horse, it felt a bit life-threatening (laughs).

As we continued, we reached the meadows that served as filming locations for the movie "Jurassic Park" and the drama "LOST." The scenery here was very moving. The two hours flew by, and I had a great time.

Depending on the horseback riding check-in time, the bus times for the return trip may vary. If you have other plans in the evening, you might need to be careful.

ホノルルからバスで１時間ほどのところにある、クアロア牧場で、乗馬に挑戦してきました。

とても人気のあるツアーのようで、送迎の大型バスは、同牧場の他のアトラクションの方々と同乗で、ほぼ満席状態でした。

乗馬は、5～6人ほどのグループごとにチェックインの時間が分けられています。その時間までに荷物をロッカーへ入れておくべきだったのですが、少し手間取りました。早めに預けておけば良かったと反省しています。

動画は禁止ですが、写真撮影はOK。スマホ用の首掛けストラップを用意しておくと便利です。

乗馬の仕方や注意事項は、日本語のビデオを見て確認します。そして、すぐに馬に乗り、何の練習もなく、約２時間の乗馬ツアーが始まりました。

インストラクター１人と、5～6人の初心者が、馬に乗って林の中を歩き出します。こういうザックリした感じは、やっぱりアメリカだな、という印象です。

しばらく行くと、左手には切り立つ山の緑、右手に崖、崖の先に広がる海の青が見えてきました。感動の美しさです。しかし、ヤンチャな馬の背に乗っていたので、ちょっと命がけでもありました(笑)

さらに歩いていくと、映画『ジュラシックパーク』や、ドラマ『LOST』のロケ地になった草原に出ます。ここはとても感動的な景色。２時間はあっという間で、とても楽しかったです。

乗馬のチェックインタイムによって、帰りに乗れるバスの時間が違うようです。夕方に他の予定を入れているときは、注意が必要かもしれません。

My girlfriend and I got to enjoy a private tour by Yoshi up Haleakalā, and I’ve rarely encountered a tour guide with such love for his profession and adopted home. Unfortunately it was very cloudy so we couldn’t see the stars, but Yoshi took us to a great pizza place and we chatted for several hours and learned so much about Japan and Maui. We will be back next time we’re in Maui and we will make sure it’s during the summer months for better weather conditions. I would strongly recommend taking a tour with him (and when given the option go for ice cream), as he will work so hard to ensure you have the greatest time.
Also don’t be too worried about it being cold, it was around 45F when we were there, and at least for me I was fine in a t-shirt.

Great way to spend a morning on the beautiful blue water of Wailea. We saw turtles swimming around us, whales off in the distance, and held a pencil urchin. The guys that run this are so nice and knowledgeable. Highly recommend them.

I had a wonderful experience. During snorkeling, I was able to see three sea turtles, and one of them was close enough to touch.

素晴らしい体験ができました。
シュノーケリングではウミガメを三匹見ることができ、
そのうちの一匹は触れるほどの距離で見ることができました。

The entertainment was first rate and the food was surprisingly good. You don’t expect food served to hundreds of people at once to be hot and tasty but they have the logistics well organized and the buffet line moves fast.
The fire stick dancers were excellent, and the whole evening had a very authentic feel.

People are great, fun, a good afternoon on the water

This snorkeling trip was a perfect day for my family. The crew was fantastic. The ship was spotless..the weather and activities were gorgeous. It was a perfect balance of entertaining and relaxing.

Awesome went with my 2 older kids and we had a blast wonderful people 100% customers service

This was our first luau and it was exceptional! The staff was courteous, professional, welcoming, and overall delightful! The food was very well prepared and there was a wide variety of selections. The show was both entertaining as well as informative and all of the performers ( host, dancers, and musicians) were great!!

I would love to do this again some time!

When I went to the activity shop, the staff quickly assisted me. During the activity, there was someone who spoke Japanese, so I was able to enjoy it with peace of mind. The view from the sea was a beautiful combination of Hawaii's stunning ocean and the whale-shaped mountain, which was very moving! The parasailing landed us on the boat, so I didn't get too wet. I also tried jet skiing for the first time, and it was fun! It's great that you can decide whether to purchase photos and videos after actually seeing them.

アクティビティのショップに行くと、日本人の方がすぐに対応してくださいました。
アクティビティ中も日本語を話せる方が対応してくださったので、安心して楽しむことが出来ました。
海の上から見る景色は、ハワイの綺麗な海と、クジラの形の山の良いとこ取りでとても感動しました！
パラセーリングは船の上に着地させてくれたので、あまり濡れずに済みました。ジェットスキーも初めてやりましたが楽しかったです！
写真や動画は実際に見てみてから購入するか決められるので、それもとても良いです。

I was very impressed by the magnificent scenery that you can't see in Japan! It's also a filming location for movies, so I recommend it as a pilgrimage site! The roads are bumpy with sharp curves and slopes, so it might be scary for those who don't drive often. Also, it gets dustier than expected, so I think it's good to pay attention to your clothing and belongings.

日本では見ることの出来ない壮大な景色にとても感動しました！映画のロケ地にもなっているので、聖地巡礼としてもオススメです！
道がでこぼこで急カーブや坂もあるので、普段あまり運転しない方は怖いかもしれません。
そして予想以上に砂だらけになるので、服装や持ち物に注意すると良いと思います。

We weren't the most graceful surfers but sure had fun trying.

We saw lots of Mantas. I can't wait to come back and do it again.

Sea Paradise did a great job. We saw six mantas. I thought the boat trip would be a bit longer. Just a short ride out from shore. So it's not about sailing. But the mantas make up for it.

We didn't know how hard it would be to learn to surf. But our guide was patient and helpful. We had a blast and we all did catch a wave.

Sailing along the Na Pali coast with the towering mountains going down to the ocean was breathtaking. A can't miss tour.

We have been ziplining in Mexico and Costa Rica. Maybe we were spoiled. The Maui runs were shorter. Still fun. But maybe better for people that haven't done it in other places.

We had a surprise interaction with a pod of spinner dolphins. It was so unexpected but such a highlight to see them swimming in our wake.

The Trilogy staff was so friendly and we loved sailing right from Kaanapali Beach. So easy and convenient to reach from the Sheraton.
