It took about 30 minutes to arrive from Waikiki by rental car.
We had a great time as a family of four (two adults and two elementary school children) from 10:30 to 14:30 as follows:
■ Ohana Highway - 1 time (wait time 10 minutes)
■ Tornado - 5 times (wait time almost 0)
■ Volcano Express - 1 time (wait time 5 minutes)
■ Big Kahuna - 6 times (wait time 2-3 minutes)
■ Hawaiian Waters Wave Pool
■ Little Kahuna Beach
■ Kids' Foam Party
Both adults and children were very satisfied and unanimously agreed to "come again."

I used the round-trip shuttle service (airport ⇔ Honolulu). They helped with loading and unloading luggage smoothly, which was very helpful. Since the tip was included, I didn't have to worry about calculating tips.

シャトルサービスは往復（空港⇔ホノルル)利用させていただきました
荷物の積み下ろしなどもスムーズにやってくださり助かりました
チップ込みだったので面倒なチップ計算をしなくてイイです

We used the service with nine people from three generations. I have visited Honolulu several times. In the past, I used taxis or rental cars, but this time, with so many people, we opted for the shuttle service. The staff was very friendly and pleasant. The loading and unloading of luggage was also smooth. Thank you very much.

ありがとうございました

Very relaxing and educational experience. My family and I really enjoyed it.

The bowl-shaped seating allows for a great view even from the back, making it very enjoyable. The acrobatics, presented with a sense of Hawaii's history, are beautiful and impressive. I'm glad I went. It will be a memorable experience.

すり鉢状の客席は後方席でもよく見え十分楽しめます。ハワイの歴史を感じる演出でのアクロバットは美しく、迫力も有り。行って良かった。思い出に残ります。

It doesn't take much time for the Manta rays to show up, swimming with these giant peaceful fish is amazing experience.

We have limited snorkeling experience so it is tiring to float 45 minutes. We are exhausted when returning to the boat. It worths the experience.

Tip: Bring hot drink and chocolate bar with you!

The crew are willing to help with sea sickness and exhaustion, but they only have bottled water. The nearest place to get any replenish is Longs Drugs which requires several minutes of driving.

The good: Black Sand Beach and Volcanoes National Park are as good as they can be. Halema'uma'u Crater is amazing.

The average: The Coffee Farm we visited is a small one. We saw the coffee plants, but didn't see much about how the coffee is produced as the machines are taken apart and stored. Food is ok-ish, lunch is fast-food bento, dinner is at a small restaurant.

The unfortunate: We didn't see any star due to the cloudy weather. If you want to do stargazing, join a stargazing group as they will have better planning and equipment.

The staff were very polite and kind, and there was absolutely no worry about communication in Japanese. I was able to enjoy my time safely and happily from start to finish. Their character was truly wonderful, and I entrusted everything to them with great confidence. Unexpectedly, there was a wild seal sleeping on the beach, safely protected with cones and ropes to keep humans at a distance, which was impressive. Such a cute sight! While swimming, I encountered beautiful fish and turtles that touched my heart. Even if you're not confident in your swimming skills, the instructors guide you well, and I believe you'll be able to fully enjoy the beauty of Hanauma Bay!

なんと言っても、スタッフさんがとても丁寧で優しくて、日本語対応も全く心配ないですし、最初から最後まで安全に楽しく過ごせました。お人柄が本当に良くて、とても信頼してお任せしました。予想外にも野生のアザラシが浜辺で寝ていて、人間が近づかないようにコーンやロープで安全に保護されていのは感動しました。とても可愛い姿！水泳中には綺麗な魚さんや亀さんとお会いして心を打たれました。泳ぎに自信がなくても、インストラクターの方々がしっかりと誘導してくれますし、たっぷりとハナウマ湾の美しさを堪能できると思います！

As a couple who are huge fans of the Jurassic series, this was a place we absolutely wanted to visit for our honeymoon. It was my first time riding a horse, so I was a bit nervous, but there was a proper briefing beforehand, and all the horses were well-behaved, so I had no worries during the ride. The highlight, without a doubt, is the breathtaking view! The scenery is beyond description, and I highly recommend it.

夫婦でジュラシックシリーズの大ファンなので、新婚旅行でどうしても訪れたかった場所です。お馬さんに乗るのも初めてだったので緊張しましたが、きちんと前もってのレクチャーもありましたし、お馬さんたちもみんなお利口さんなので、乗馬中は心配なかったです。見どころは、なんといってもその絶景！見晴らしの良さは説明不要で、是非ともおすすめしたいです。

This is my fourth trip to Hawaii. I finally fulfilled my long-held dream! I was simply moved in front of the magnificent nature created by the Big Island. This time, it rained a little along the way, so I hope to visit again in sunny weather next time.

4度目のハワイ旅行。ついに念願叶いました！ハワイ島が創り出した大自然の前に、ただただ感動。。今回途中で小雨が降ってきたので、次回は晴れの中伺いたいです。

The production was incredibly elaborate. There were circus-like acrobatics, and there were also funny performances along the way, which made me very satisfied.

演出が凄く凝っていました。
サーカス的な曲芸もあり、途中面白おかしいパフォーマンスもあり大満足でした。

This is my second time using this service, and I felt that it was a friendly and enjoyable surfing experience where I could stand up and ride the waves right away. I have tried other schools at Waikiki Beach, but this lesson is definitely the best. I will be visiting again soon, so thank you!

今回で2度目の利用になりますが、いずれもすぐに立って滑ることができ、親切で楽しいサーフィン体験スクールだと感じました。ワイキキビーチの他のスクールでも体験しましたが、やはりこちらのレッスンが一番です。近いうちにまた伺いますので、よろしくお願いします。

I went there again this time because I had a great time about 10 years ago! The water slides had about a 15-minute wait for each, and I had more than enough fun for about 5 hours! The UV rays are stronger than in Waikiki, so while it's not cold, sunscreen is a must! Although outside food is not allowed, the food options are expensive and not that great, so it's better not to have high expectations in that regard.

10年くらい前に一度行って楽しかったので、今回も行きました！ウォータースライダーは全て15分待ち程度で、約5時間でしたが十分過ぎるほど楽しめました！
ワイキキよりも紫外線が強いので、寒くないですが日焼け止めは必須です！飲食類持ち込み禁止なのにフードは高くて大したものがないので、そこは期待しない方がいいです。

It was a long-awaited Segway experience in Hawaii. I had a fun ride while enjoying the wonderful views at Ala Moana Park along the coast. They even made a movie summarizing the experience, which became a great memory!

ハワイでの久しぶりのセグウェイ体験。
海沿いのアラモアナパークで素晴らしい景色を楽しみながら、楽しいライドでした。
体験をまとめたムービーまで作成いただき、とてもいい思い出になりました！

I had to wait quite a bit because some people didn't arrive on time as we were going around the hotels. The shuttle service was included, and there was an explanation at the entrance, along with assistance on how to use the lockers. I thought the stay would be short, but since it wasn't too crowded, I was able to enjoy the slides a lot and was satisfied.

ホテルを順に回るので時間に来ない人がいてだいぶ待たされた。
送迎付き、入り口で説明があり、ロッカーの利用方法なども一緒にきてやってくれる。
滞在時間は短いかなと思ったけど、そこまで混んでなかったのでスライダーもかなり利用できて満足です。

I took the shuttle bus from the Sheraton Hotel. The seats were unreserved and the air conditioning was quite strong. When we got off the bus, only the Japanese participants were called and given an explanation of the itinerary in Japanese. The tour itself was explained only in English, but the atmosphere was enjoyable.

シェラトンホテルから送迎バスで向かいました。車内は自由席でエアコンは冷房強め。
バスを降りると日本人だけ呼ばれて日本語で行程などの説明があります。ツアー自体は英語の説明のみでしたが、雰囲気は楽しかったです。

The participants in the tour were mostly young people and families, and as a senior couple, we felt a bit out of place at first. However, driven by our long-held dream of swimming with the honu, we decided to join the tour.

Our experience was amazing! We were truly able to swim next to the honu. There were also various fish of all sizes nearby, allowing us to have the experience we had always dreamed of.

We also tried stand-up paddleboarding. I fell into the ocean several times, but it was fun, and while laughing, I managed to stand up eventually.

The staff engaged with each participant, and we had a really enjoyable time. I'm so glad we took the plunge and participated!

一緒のツアーに参加された方は、予想通り若い方たちや家族連れの方がほとんどで、シニア夫婦の私たちはちょっと気後れするかなと思っていたのですが、長年の夢だったホヌと一緒に泳ぎたいという思いから、思い切って参加してみました。
感想　最高でした！
本当にホヌの隣で泳ぐことができました。ほかにも大小さまざまな魚たちも近くにいて、あこがれていた体験ができました。
SUPにも挑戦しました。何度も海に落ちましたが、それも楽しく、あははと笑っているうちに何とか立つことができるようにはなりました。
スタッフの方からの参加者それぞれへの声掛けもあり、本当に楽しい時間を過ごせました。
思い切って参加して本当に良かったです。

I have seen Cirque du Soleil in Odaiba once, but I think the show in Waikiki was more impressive because the distance was closer and it had more impact. The performance was breathtaking and moving.

お台場でも一度シルクドソレイユを見たことがありますが、ワイキキのショーの方が距離が近くて迫力があったと思います。パフォーマンスは圧巻で感動しました。

I was dropped off at a different terminal during the shuttle service from the hotel to the airport, and I had to walk between the terminals. I realized that I need to confirm things myself instead of relying solely on the driver.

ホテルから空港までの送迎で、違うターミナルで降ろされ、仕方なく歩いてターミナル間移動しました。運転手任せにせず、自分でちゃんと確認が必要だと思いました。

We set off with four groups, including ourselves. The boat that takes you to the flying area is already an attraction! We headed offshore while enjoying the sea breeze. The staff were cheerful, and we had a great time.

私たち含め、4組で出発しました。
飛ぶところまで行く船がもはやアトラクション！潮風を浴びながら沖合に出ました。
スタッフの方も陽気で楽しい時間を過ごせました。

Driving a buggy myself while touring movie filming locations was amazing. It took about two hours to joyfully explore the vast grounds. I ended up covered in dust from the swirling sand, but that gave me a sense of accomplishment and fulfillment, which was fantastic. The staff provided explanations about the area, but I couldn't understand English, so I would have appreciated a Japanese guide.

自分でバギーを運転しての映画の撮影スポット巡りは最高でした。広大な敷地を約2時間かけて爽快に周ります。巻き上がる砂煙で全身がドロドロになりますが、それはそれでやりきった感と充実感があって最高でした。
スタッフにより、現地の説明があるのですが、英語が分からず、日本語ガイドがあれば、嬉しかったです、、、

Originally, I was planning to see a hula dance show. There are various types of hula, and while I was unsure, I discovered Auana. I was intrigued by the fact that it was a newly released program that could only be seen in Hawaii, so I made a reservation. It had a somewhat circus-like image. However, when the show started, there was a story as well. The best seats were sold out, so I reserved the second-best option, which turned out to be the front row on the right side with my back to the stage. People of all ages can enjoy it. If you have time in your schedule, I definitely think you should see it.

もともと、フラダンスショーを見るつもりでした。フラも色々と種類があって迷っていたところ、アウアナを発見しました。まだ公開して間もないプログラム、ハワイでしか見れないというとこに関心を持ち予約しました。若干サーカスのイメージでした。
ところがショーが始まるとストーリーもありました。
一番いい席は完売で2番目のところを予約したところステージを背にして右の最前列でした。
老若男女が楽しめます。日程に時間ある方は絶対に見た方がいいと思います。

This tour was the perfect amount of time and offered so many different things to do. Nothing better than enjoying the day with your teenaged kids and they actually enjoyed being together. Thanks to everyone, especially the driver for the tubing/banana boat. So much fun!

The boat was very bare bones and not fancy. Like I say, you get what you pay for. We have taken a more expensive NaPali coast snorkeling trip in a very nice boat but I was okay with paying less and having a smaller, less plushy boat so we could go deeper in the sea caves; however, we never even stopped to snorkel. I had to ask because we were never even told why we didn’t snorkel. They said it was too windy. I’m not sure I believed them. We did stop on the way back to jump in if we wanted. You pay the same whether you get to snorkel or not. I guess we should have booked the morning tour. Maybe chances of snorkeling are better. Next time I’d pay more for a comfy boat, with more room.

My first zipline experience! There were about ten participants, and at first, we received help from the instructor to put on the necessary gear like harnesses and helmets. After that, we took a van up to the starting point on the hill. Once we arrived, we received a briefing on safety precautions for ziplining and then descended the first zipline over grass to confirm our basic movements. From there, we continued at quite a speed over a valley with three waterfalls and above the river. We took breaks along the way for hydration and fruit, enjoying the thrill of eight ziplines, including the longest one over 600 meters. (Originally there were nine, but the eighth zipline was under maintenance, so we did a total of eight.) The speed and height were a bit scary at first, but by the end, I was able to enjoy the scenery. Some experienced adults and children even went upside down while zipping, having a great time.

初めてのジップライン体験！10人くらいの参加者で、最初はインストラクターに手伝ってもらいながらハーネス？やヘルメットなどの必要な装備を装着。そこからワゴン車に乗って丘の上の方にある出発点に連れられて行かれます。到着したらジップライン滑空時の注意事項などの説明を受け1本目の草地の上のジップラインを下り基本動作を確認。その先は三連滝のある渓谷の上や川の上を結構なスピードで続けて下って行きます。途中で水分補給やフルーツをいただいて休憩も取りつつ最も長いので600mを超える長さのものを含む8本のジップラインを爽快感を味わいながら下りました。(本来9本ながら8番目のジップラインがメンテナンス作業中だったため計8本に)スピード感、高さとも最初はちょっと怖いくらいでしたが、最後の方では景色を楽しむ余裕が出て来ました。慣れている大人や子どもの中には逆さまになって下る人たちもいて楽しんでいました。

Loved it , but wish we could’ve done more of Jurassic park stuff. But overall fun!

I was able to see many whales. The light meal (cinnamon roll, fruit, and one drink included) was also delicious.

たくさんのクジラに会えました。
軽食（シナモンロール、フルーツ、ワンドリンク付き）も美味しかったです。

I can't speak English, but they explained things in an easy-to-understand way, allowing me to fly safely, enjoyably, and refreshingly. Towards the end, I felt a sense of unity with the unfamiliar foreigners, as if we were a family for a moment.

英会話はできないけど、わかりやすい言葉で説明して頂き、安全に楽しく、爽快に飛ぶことができました。
最後の方は知らない外国人達と一体感がうまれ、ひとときの家族の様でした。

Sunset and Stargazing was definitely one of the highlights of our trip. We were taken to the top of Halakela to see the amazing views, then due to the crowds we went a little lower to a secluded viewing area, chairs were provided, snacks and tea. Watched a amazing sunset, were provided Jackets as it gets cold after the sunset. Stargazing was unreal! Two powerful Telescopes were used, saw stars and the craters of the moon like never have. It was a memory of a lifetime.

The weather was great, and the feeling of riding a buggy through the great outdoors was incredible. The ocean, sky, and mountains offered a wonderful view. I heard it’s a filming location for various movies. I had an amazing time enjoying nature.

天気もよく、大自然の中バギーで滑走する気持ちよさたまらんですよー
海、空、山素晴らしい絶景
色々な映画のロケ地との事。
大自然を満喫できてサイコーでした。
