Hawaii
The guide was very friendly, kind and helpful. The horses were really smart and well trained. It was the first time for us to do horse riding, but nothing was difficult and had a really good time spending time enjoying the beautiful beach while riding the cute horses. We enjoyed this activity the most between all the things we did during our vacation in Hawaii.
The transportation to this place was a bit poor. We took Uber to this place and tried to schedule an Uber/Lyft for going back before hand but it was unavailable around this spot. On the way back, there was no Uber/ Lyft available so we had to use taxi which cost us triple. I would recommend renting a car to get to this place or set up a taxi pick up in advance so you wouldn’t have to worry.
The activity itself was really good and it was worth paying all the cost getting here and going back as well.
We would definitely want to go back next time we visit Oahu again!
This was a great experience and a definite must if your visiting Oahu. Kayaking over coral reefs and clear blue green water. It was so nice to walk around on the sandbar surrounded by beautiful water. The staff were all so helpful and knowledgeable. It was easy to find and easy to book. So glad we did it!
Aloha Corrine! Thank you so much for joining us for a kayak and snorkel adventure! And thank you for taking the time to leave this awesome review for us. We really appreciate that. Stoked to hear you had a great experience out there and hope to see you again soon! Mahalo!
As this was our first Luau, we were not sure what to expect. Wow, were we impressed!!! The food was delicious, and the server was very informative on what each dish was and provided a brief history of it. The service was impeccable. Each employee made it a point to provide a top notch experience! The show was also very enjoyable! Great performers, great story, and very thorough history. And the view...holy crap!!! We don't have anything to compare it to, but I would HIGHLY recommend this luau! (Oh, and we also purchased a beautiful carved whale tail from a vendor on -site).
The captain kindly spoke slowly, even though the guests did not understand each other's languages. Since it was a private boat, we were able to spend a fulfilling time together, ultimately becoming closer.
キャプテン、ゲストお互いの言語が分からなくても親切にゆっくりとお話ししてくださりました。
プライベートボートということもあり最終的には距離も近くなれたほど充実した時間を過ごせました。
Aloha! Thank you very much for participating in the Captain Bruce's Paradise Ocean Tour. We are delighted to hear that your family enjoyed the tour! We also appreciate your kind words about our staff. Please join us again on your next visit to Hawaii. All of our staff look forward to welcoming you back!
アロハ!キャプテンブルース天国の海ツアーです。この度はツアーへのご参加、誠にありがとうございました。
ご家族皆様でツアー楽しんで頂けて嬉しく思います!またスタッフにもお褒めのお言葉をいただきありがとうございました。
またハワイに来た際には是非ツアーにご参加くださいませ。スタッフ一同心よりお待ち申し上げております
We participated as a family, and we were the only Japanese people there. When I conveyed that I wasn't very good at English in broken phrases, the captain said, "No problem." Anyway, all four crew members worked hard, were attentive to the guests, and were very friendly, which felt great. The sky, which was cloudy in the morning, cleared up, and we were able to see dolphins, sea turtles, and a family of sea lions.
For snorkeling, they provided life jackets, so I felt safe and enjoyed it. However, after swimming, it gets very cold when the sea breeze hits you, so I think it's better to bring a towel (and a jacket) with you.
It became a wonderful memory.
家族で参加しましたが、日本人は私達だけ。あんまり英語が得意じゃないと、カタコトで伝えると、船長さんは、ノープロブレムと言ってくれました。とにかく4人のクルーがみんなよく働くし、お客さんのことも気にかけてくれて愛想がよく、気持ちがよかったです。朝は曇っていた空も晴れてきて、イルカやウミガメ、オットセイの親子も見られました。
シュノーケリングも、ライフジャケットを貸してくれるので安心して楽しめました。ただ泳いだあとは、海風に当たるととても寒いので、しっかりタオルを(上着も)持っていったほうがいいと思います。
いい思い出になりました。
Got to experience extra things we would not have been able to set up. thankyou royal star
Wow just wow. Fast UTV, beautiful farm ground! Thank you
Great experience, Arizona was very commemorating!!
An unreal experience. You get to be in the Hawaii fresh air and nature while enjoying an experience so similar to a waterpark.
The train ride was so fun, definitely add this on as you get more of the experience of the plantation!
Lots of experience filled and learning through the night!
Great day in the water, seen lots of ocean life!!!
This is the boat you want to be on to explore the ins and outs of the Na Pali coast. I was amazed by the sea caves
Don and Austin were perfect guides! Lots of fun, history, and current events. I'll be back!
1st the weather cooperated.
2nd the crew was great, super friendly, knowledgeable of history of the area old and current.
Professional attitude and service, felt safe and comfortable the entire trip.
3rd we saw a lot of sea turtles from the boat and saw one underwater next to the coral reef snorkeling.
A lots of fish on the reef. Warm fresh water rinse and warm beverages after 90 minute snorkeling period.
Lastly the boat was Captained very well and the mooring was pretty cool to watch. We highly recommend.
Thank you for a great day.
Was a great time for all of us. We all loved it. The entertainment was great
Timely, efficient, safe and excellent adventure. Highly recommended. Done well and Done right.
The ride to the port was on time and smooth
We got funny & enthusiasm tour guides
It started to get so fun as soon as we got on the boat
All the activities were fantastic. We enjoyed every moment on the cruise so time went by very fast.
The staffs made this trip amazing I believed, so thankyou so much for the great day on the bay.
Hotel to airport upon returning home. The hotel pickup was right on time, which was a relief. When asked about the airline during boarding, I answered Hawaiian Airlines, but I was dropped off at the first terminal for flights to Kona, even though flights to Japan are at the second terminal. I was able to move shortly after, but I was filled with anxiety and sweating profusely.
帰国時のホテル→空港。ホテルの迎えは時間ピッタリでホッとひと安心。乗車時、エアーラインは?ときかれたので、ハワイアンエアーと答えたら、JAPAN行きは第二ターミナルなのに、Kona行きなどの第一ターミナルで降ろされた。程なく移動できたけれど不安満載で大汗だった。
This is one of the most memorable experiences that we've during our recent trip! The staff as so accommodating from the very beginning of our cruise to the end. We were in such a beautiful location to relax and just have fun and really appreciate Hawaii. There were many snacks, water and other drinks that came with our package. Another great thing is that we could bring our own alcoholic beverages. We saw at least 3 turtles and other beautiful fishes in the ocean. The lift vests were comfortable and we were guided by the staff while swimming out during snorkeling. We would do this again!
We're very pleased to hear your feedback on our crew and the relaxing tour on the sandbar. Thank you so much for sharing your best experience with us. Aloha!
This was a wonderful trip. The crew was phenomenal. They were very attentive to the passengers and were extremely knowledgeable about the area and the marine life present. In addition to the turtles promised, we even spotted the first whales of the season (quite early, in fact) and had dolphins come right up to use within the reef, also a rare happening. One of the nicest things about this group is that, even though their vessel can hold up to 80 passengers, they keep the number of people in the group small in order to make it a much more enjoyable and interactive experience. I would highly recommend this group for their professionalism and attention to detail. If I had more time on my trip, I believe I would have taken this trip again or one of their other offerings. It is WELL WORTH the low price, and I would highly recommend this to anyone wanting a truly magical snorkeling adventure.
The crew was great! the music was awesome. The kids loved it and us parents were so happy with how the day went. Thoroughly recommend this trip!
Our guides, Meeks, Val and Jordie were all charismatic and fun while making sure we were safe. We did a total of 7 zip lines, each a little longer than the last with some cool activities in between. And we loved every second of it! You also get a nice ride to base camp and a chance to see some of the landmarks throughout Kualoa Ranch. I would definitely recommend!!
I participated in this activity because I heard you could do activities in Heaven's Sea. There were a lot of participants, so we were a bit delayed in departing. On the boat, there were two singers who kept the atmosphere lively until we reached the sandbar, making it feel like a club.
After about ten minutes, we arrived at Heaven's Sea, and I was impressed by how clear and beautiful the water was. However, the water level was about chest-high, which was disappointing as it was similar to a regular sea. On the plus side, we were able to enjoy activities like stand-up paddleboarding, canoeing, and snorkeling, so we had a lot of fun playing around.
天国の海でアクティビティーもできるということでこちらに参加しました。
参加人数が多くわちゃわちゃして出発が少し遅れていました。船内では2人の歌い手がいてサンドバーに着くまで盛り上げてくれクラブみたいでした。
10分程で天国の海に着き水は透明で綺麗で感激しました。ただ水位は胸ぐらいまであり、通常の海とかわらずで残念でした。
その分supやカヌーがシュノーケリングなどできたので沢山遊べて楽しかったです。
I was able to enjoy snorkeling in two spacious locations with excellent visibility! There were plenty of fish, and I was thrilled.
There were several types of soft drinks available for unlimited refills, and breakfast included fruit and pastries, while lunch consisted of sandwiches with a choice of fillings, which were delicious. Chips were also served as a snack. The service was great, with sunscreen provided as well.
There were about 20 participants, and my husband and I were the only Japanese people. Naturally, everything was in English, so I couldn't understand most of the explanations. However, the staff taught us how to use the snorkel through gestures.
Overall, snorkeling in Kealakekua Bay was beautiful and amazing! I highly recommend it if you're going to the Big Island.
少人数でゆったり二箇所、透明度抜群な所でシュノーケリングを楽しめました!魚も沢山いて感激しました。
ソフトドリンクは何種類かあり飲み放題、朝食はフルーツとデニッシュ、昼食はサンドイッチで具材も選ばせてもらえおいしかったです。おやつにポテチもでました。日焼け止めも置いてあったりとサービスはよかったです。
参加者は20人ぐらいいて、日本人は私達夫婦だけでした。当然すべて英語なので、説明もほとんどわからなかったです。ただスタッフはジェスチャーでシュノーケルの使い方を教えてくれました。
とにかくケアラケクア湾でのシュノーケリングは綺麗で最高でした!ハワイ島に行くならオススメです。
Aloha,
Thank you very much for your recommendation. We hope to see you on your next visit to the Big Island!
Aloha,
Mahalo Nui Loa for your recommendation. We hope to see you on your next visit to the Big Island!
The meeting place was near the Hilton Lagoon, which was easy to find.
The other guests were four Americans.
After about 15 minutes on the jet boat, we took turns putting on parachutes.
I was asked if I wanted photos, but I declined; however, those who wanted them could purchase an SD card for $40.
I chose the lower height of 120 meters, but it was still high enough. The view was excellent, and I could see the ocean far away, with Diamond Head visible nearby.
In the end, thanks to the pilot's charm, we were dropped into the sea up to our chests, so it's better to wear a swimsuit.
On the way back, we went fast, so it was quite bumpy. I recommend taking motion sickness medication if you're prone to it.
They asked for a $20 tip, but I didn't have cash, so we gave $20 for the two of us.
集合場所はヒルトンラグーンの近くで、分かりやすかったです。
私達以外のお客さんは、アメリカ人の方4名でした。
ジェットボートで15分ほど行ったところで、順番にパラシュートを装着します。
写真が欲しいか聞かれたので、断わりましたが、欲しい人は$40でSDカードが購入できます。
120mの低い方の高さを選択しましたが、十分に高かったです。見晴らしはとても良く、海は遠くまで見渡せ、ダイヤモンドヘッドも近くに見えました。
最後は、操縦士さんの愛嬌で、胸まで海にポチャンと落とされます。なので、水着を着用した方が良いです。
帰りは飛ばすので、かなり揺れます。酔いやすい方は酔い止めを飲むことをオススメします。
チップ$20とお願いされましたが、私は現金がなかったので、2人で$20渡しました。
The meals were served buffet-style, and I was able to eat until I was full. The flavors were delicious. The focus was on meat, but there were also fish and vegetables available. The seating arrangement during the meal felt a bit cramped. It seems that seats are assigned based on the order of arrival at the venue. During the show, we wore masks while watching. It seemed that not many people around me were wearing masks. There appeared to be many tourists from outside Japan. Some staff members could speak a little Japanese. The hula dance and fire dance were also enjoyable.
食事はビッフェ形式で、お腹いっぱい食べることができました。味も美味しかったです。
お肉が中心でしたが、魚や野菜もありました。
食事中の座席の間隔は狭い印象です。会場到着順に座席が指定されているようです。
ショー中はマスクを着用して、鑑賞しました。
周りの方はあまりマスクはしておりません。
日本国外の観光客の方が多い印象でした。
スタッフは日本語も多少しゃべれる方がおりました。
フラダンスにファイヤーダンスもあり楽しかったです。
The Hilton Grand Waikikian is conveniently located just a three-minute walk from the meeting point, and this was my first time booking.
I was told that Japanese was not spoken, but the staff at the reception did their best to communicate in Japanese.
Additionally, the staff on the boat helped ease the tension before the flight by creating a lively atmosphere.
I chose the 1,000 feet option, and it felt like we flew longer than expected. It was exhilarating, and my son, who has a fear of heights, was thrilled.
I definitely want to fly again next time!
ヒルトングランドワイキキアン泊で集合場所まで徒歩3分と利便性も良く初めて申し込みをしました。
日本語が通じないとの事でしたが、受付の方は一生懸命日本語で対応してくれました。
また船上のスタッフの方々は、飛ぶ前の緊張感を少しでも和らげる為に盛り上げて下さいました。
1000フィートを選択しましたが、思いの外長く飛ばしてくれてた様に感じました。
兎に角、爽快でしたし、高所恐怖症の息子も大喜びでした。
また、次回も飛んでみたいと思います!
It was an amazing experience for me and my kid.
Everything ran smoothly -- from the hotel pick up to the drop off.
The orientation was a good way to detail important instructions.
The Kualoa Ranch is so breathtaking that even down times were utilized to just explore.
The tour guide was hilarious, entertaining, and informative. Also helpful whenever we needed photo ops.
I had been going to Hawaii every year, but due to the pandemic, it had been three years since my last visit. Usually, I would watch hula shows on the Big Island, Maui, or Kauai. This time, I was excited to participate in the Rock-a-Hula show in Waikiki for the first time.
The buffet seating was surprisingly cramped, considering the pandemic, and the food was average, so I can't really recommend it. After the meal, we moved to the hall where the show began. Whether or not the performers resembled Michael Jackson and Elvis Presley is another story, but the indoor performance was glamorous and provided a fun time.
If I have someone to take to Hawaii again, I would like to participate once more.
毎年通っていたハワイもコロナ禍で3年ぶり、例年はハワイ島やマウイ島、カウアイ島でフラショーを見ることが恒例でした。
今回はワイキキで初めて見るロック・ア・フラショウを楽しみに参加しました。
ビュッフェはコロナ禍とは思えないほど狭い間隔に座らされ、食事の内容も普通であまりお勧めとは言えません。
食事の後、場所をホールに移動してショーが始まりました。
マイケルジャクソン、エルビスプレスリー(もどき)が似ているかは別として
室内での観劇は煌びやかで楽しいひと時でした。
またハワイへ連れていく人がいたら参加したいと思います。
