Hawaii
Even with the chilly air that day, we had an absolute last. The crew was kind, attentive, lively and generally playful. The live band was amazing. We had a few hula dancers make an impromptu performance. It felt like a warm nd peaceful family get together. Highly recommend.
Aloha Do it!,
Thank you for your 5-star review! We are glad you enjoyed our tour.
We are looking forward to seeing you again soon!
Mahalo,

I splurged on a helicopter ride, thinking I might never come back to the Big Island again. I was moved by the breathtaking scenery that can only be seen from a helicopter, such as valleys, cliffs, and the traces of flowing lava. It was also great that I could ask questions and talk with the pilot through the microphone.
もう2度とハワイ島まで来られないだろうと、奮発して搭乗しました。
普通では見られない渓谷や岸壁、溶岩が流れた跡など、ヘリコプターならではの風景に感動しました。パイロットさんとマイクを通して質問したりお話し出来たのも良かったです。
If I had splurged a little more and taken the passenger seat, it might have been even more fun. I took so many photos and videos that before I knew it, my smartphone ran out of battery. Let's be caref
あともう少し奮発して助手席にすればもっと楽しかったかも。
写真やビデオを撮りすぎて気づいたらスマホの電源が切れてしまいました、気をつけましょう!
Bri was amazing! The tour was great . We got to see a little bit of everything & bri made it fun!!
Went with my 12-year-old granddaughter, so they had a young and an old person to deal with. It was an amazing experience. My granddaughter was a fish!
Was it because of the rain that the stage was moved from outdoors to indoors? I was looking forward to the fire dance, but it was canceled, and the show ended about an hour earlier than scheduled, which was disappointing. The food was also limited in variety and not as good compared to other luau shows.
雨降りで、ステージが屋外から屋内に移動になった為なのでしょうか?
楽しみにしていたファイヤーダンスもなく、予定時間の1時間ほど早く終了になり、ガッカリです。
食事も、他のルアウショーと比べると種類も少なく味も良くなかったです。
I recommend a luau show at another hotel.
別のホテルのルアウショーをお勧めします。
Family of 7. Unlimited drink refills, great authentic Hawaiian foods, fantastic performance of Hawaiian culture. All staff was helpful, happy, and welcoming
Dot is out! With the time and money. The four teens really raved about the experience
Great service from Tim! Great server but would also take time to answer questions and tell stories. Not sure if all of the servers are as great, but Tim made our night! Was a great night. So glad that the fires did not take this lovely place!
New plates between courses ;)
I visited at the end of May on a weekday. The location is about a 40-minute drive from Honolulu Airport, even further from Waikiki. There are package tickets that include official shuttle bus service, or you can add shuttle service as an option, but it costs about 5,000 yen per person. It's also possible to take a bus transfer, but it takes about 1.5 to 2 hours, so I can't recommend that. When I checked Uber from Waikiki at 9:40, it was $31 one way, so I definitely recommend going by Uber!
I arrived in time for the 10:30 opening and entered. There are few changing rooms, so I think it's better to wear your swimsuit from the hotel. You can store your belongings in lockers. The large locker costs $22, and the small locker costs $18. It was more expensive than I had researched beforehand. Even the small locker was large enough to hold clothes and valuables for two people.
I got used to the wave pool and was ready to go to the slides, but I was surprised to find that many of the slides were out of service. On that day, popular slides like the Waianae Coaster, Shaka, and Ohana Highway were all closed, and the lazy river was also not in operation.
Since there was no choice, I went to the end of the line for the slides that were operating, but the staff told me that this slide would also be closed, so I had to go somewhere else. It hadn't even been an hour since the park opened... It seemed that there were not enough staff, and even the attractions that were operating were on a rotation. Because of this, people concentrated on the slides that were open, and I had to wait an hour for some of them.
Also, that day the closing time was early at 3 PM. With only four and a half hours available, I ended up waiting for an hour and couldn't enjoy the slides at all. The slides themselves are really fun, but since they take up almost a whole day, I recommend them for those who have several days for their trip. On the way back, I was able to get an Uber quickly for $40.
5月末の平日に行きました。
場所はワイキキからだと、ホノルル空港よりさらに先になり、クルマで約40分ほどかかります。オフィシャルの送迎バスがついたパッケージチケットや、オプションで送迎をつけることもできますが、一人約5000円かかります。またバスを乗り継いで行くことも可能ですが、1.5時間〜2時間かかるそうなのでオススメはできません。
ワイキキで9:40にUberで調べたら片道31ドルだったので、絶対にUberで行くのがオススメです!!
10:30のオープンに合わせて到着し、入場。更衣室は数が少ないのでホテルで水着を着ていく方がいいと思います。ロッカーで荷物を預けられます。大きいロッカーは22ドル、小さいロッカーは18ドルでした。事前に調べていたより値上げしてました。小さいロッカーでも着替えや貴重品を2人分預けても十分な大きさでした。
波のプールで身体を慣らし、いざスライダーへと思いましたが、びっくりすることに運休のスライダーが多いことに気づきました。
この日はワイアエナコースター、シャカ、オハナハイウェイなど魅力的な人気スライダーが軒並み運休、加えて流れるプールも稼働していませんでした。
仕方ないので、動いてるスライダーに並ぼうと列の最後尾に行くと、このスライダーは運休になるから別に行ってくれと係員から言われました。まだ開園から1時間経ってないのに、、スタッフが少ないようでなんと稼働してるアトラクションすらローテーションで回しているのです。そのせいで動いてるスライダーに人が集中して、滑べるまで1時間待ったものもありました。
またこの日は閉園時間が早く15時。
4時間半しかないのに1時間も待たされ、結局、全然スライダーを楽しめませんでした。
スライダー自体はすごく楽しいですが、ほぼ一日使ってしまうので日数のある旅行の方にオススメです。
帰りもUberがすぐ来る場で40ドルで帰れました。
You definitely need to check the closing time in advance. It can end as late as 8 PM or as early as 3 PM, so if you're paying the same price, aim for the longer days!
とにかく閉園時間を事前に調べておく必要があります。長いと20時、短いと15時で終わってしまうので、同じ料金払うなら長い日を狙って行ってください!
After finishing the zip line and returning to Waikiki, I received an email from Coral Crater. My husband and I can't speak English at all, so I can't say for sure, but it felt like the content expressed anger about not receiving a tip. There were three containers labeled "tips" outside the building at chest height, so I put some money in one of them. It was the moment when the fun experience turned into an unpleasant memory.
ジップラインを終えてワイキキに戻って来たぐらいに、コーラルクレーターからメールが来ました。私達夫婦は、まったく英語が話せないので、確かな事はいえませんが。チップを貰ってないと言う怒りの様な内容に感じました。私は建物の外にあった、胸の高さ位にチップと書いた入れ物が3つあっので、その内のひとつに入れました。楽しかった事が嫌な思い出に変わった瞬間です。
Please be careful with the tips.
チップには、気をつけてください。
Minako, who attended to us, was incredibly kind! 😍 We got to see so many dolphins, it was the best! 😆😆 I want to go again! ✨
アテンドをしてくださったミナコさん‼︎
めちゃくちゃ親切でした😍
イルカもたくさん見れて最高でした😆😆
また行きたいです✨
Make sure to take your motion sickness medication!
酔い止めはしっかり飲もう!
Aloha! Thank you, Sota, for participating in Dolphin University. Meeting dolphins against the backdrop of the magnificent nature in West Oahu is truly the best, isn't it? I also appreciate your comments about Minako. They will be encouraging for her. Thank you for your comments regarding motion sickness medication as well. Please make sure to take precautions against motion sickness when you come to Hawaii again. We look forward to your next participation. Mahalo nui and a hui hou!
アロハ! Sota様。イルカ大学に参加していただき、ありがとうございます。オアフ西部の壮大な大自然を舞台にしたイルカとの出会いは最高ですよね! ミナコに関するコメントにも感謝いたします。ミナコにとって励みになります。また、酔い止めに関するコメントもありがとうございます。ぜひ、ハワイにいらっしゃる際には酔い止め対策をして遊びに来てくださいね。またのご参加を心よりお待ちしております。Mahalo nui and a hui hou!
I was able to use it with peace of mind without any troubles. Thank you very much. I would like to use it again next time.
特にトラブルもなく、安心して利用できました。ありがとうございました。また、次回も利用したいと思います。。
Thank you for participating in the tour. We would be happy if you could join us again when you come to Hawaii. We are always looking forward to seeing you!! Mahalo!!
この度はツアーにご参加いただき、ありがとうございました。またハワイにお越しの際にはリピートしていただければ幸いです。いつでもお待ちしております!!Mahalo!!
I was able to use it with peace of mind, without any troubles. Thank you very much. I would like to use it again next time.
特にトラブルもなく、安心して利用できました。ありがとうございました。また、次回も利用したいと思います。。
Hanauma Bay was very beautiful. I participated from the morning, and at that early hour, the tide hadn't come in yet, so the corals were very close, and I could see the fish without snorkeling. I went just before Golden Week, but the water temperature was low and it was cold. There weren't many colorful fish, but I was very satisfied.
ハナウマ湾とても綺麗でした
午前から参加したのですが、朝イチの時間はまだ潮が満ちておらず、珊瑚が近すぎてシュノーケルなくても魚が目視できる感じでした
GW直前にいったのですが、水温が低く、寒かったです
カラフルなお魚はあまりいませんでしたが、大満足でした
I think it would be good to prepare towels and outerwear considering the cold. It's better to bring your own food and drinks.
寒さを考慮してタオルや羽織ものの準備があるといいと思います
食べ物や飲み物は持参した方が良いです
If you have time, I think you would enjoy a longer movie location tour instead of a half-day tour, or even horseback riding. This tour has beautiful scenery, but basically, you can only see similar views.
時間があるなら、半日ツアーではなく滞在時間が長い映画のロケ地巡りや、馬に乗った方が楽しめると思います。このツアーも景色は綺麗ですが、基本的に似たような景色しか見れません。
I recommend going on a movie location tour.
映画のロケ地巡りの方をオススメします。
The horse was very gentle, and it felt like it had been trained on the route and walking speed, so even though it was my first time, I was able to ride it well. I was disappointed that there were no movie filming locations to visit along the riding route.
お馬さんはとっても大人しくて、ルートの進み方や歩くスピードなど教え込まれてる感じで、初めてでしたが乗りこなせました。乗馬ルートに映画の撮影場所の見学が無くて残念でした。
I picked a full day with Lunch, the lunch was good, the snorkel on secret island was amazing lots of fishes to see, some good activities too. Though I would recommend half a day if you are not in a large as many activities require a lot of people to make it fun.
Departing from the Sheraton Waikiki in the heart of Waikiki. Everything is in English, and there are no Japanese speakers. The explanations are clear, so it's manageable.
The life jackets are the type you inflate yourself, but they are used by other companies as well, and as long as you inflate them properly, there are no issues.
The sea turtle snorkeling is just off the coast of Waikiki, right after departure. This time, we saw two turtles.
It took some time to find the turtles, but in the meantime, we enjoyed snorkeling with various fish.
Whether they are being fed or not, the fish come close, allowing you to experience swimming alongside them.
After snorkeling, we started sailing. In addition to free snacks, there are alcoholic beverages available for purchase.
Having a beer in Hawaii's dry climate after snorkeling was fantastic.
The waves during sailing were a bit high, but since the boat is a catamaran, it was not a problem. Once you get used to it, it becomes a fun attraction.
ワイキキの中心部シェラトンワイキキ横から出港。
全て英語で、日本人はいません。
説明は分かりやすいので、なんとかなります。
ライフジャケットは、自分で空気を入れて含ませるタイプですが、他社でも使われていて、しっかり空気を入れれば問題ありません。
ウミガメシュノーケリングは出港して直ぐのワイキキ沖。
今回は2匹いました。
今回、ウミガメを探すのに時間がかかりましたが、その間は様々な魚とシュノーケリング。
餌付けをされているのか、近づいきて、一緒に泳いでいる感覚を味わえます。
シュノーケリングの後は、セーリング開始。
無料のスナックの他、有料でアルコールもあります。
シュノーケリング後、ハワイのカラッとした気候の中で飲むビールは最高でした。
セーリング中の波は、少し高いですが、船が双胴船なので問題なし。
慣れると楽しいアトラクションになります。
Sunscreen or a rash guard is essential to avoid sunburn.
日除ない為、日焼け止めもしくはラッシュガード必須です。
i wish I’d have thought to ask for to go containers. There was food left we should’ve taken with us. I’m assuming it gets thrown away. I would at least bring plastic zip lock bags next time. I thought it was going to be a buffet where u stood in line & helped yourself, so that would’ve been different. But they brought large plates to the table. Sorry but I can’t stand to think of food being thrown out from a table. It was a very evening but wish they had fire dancers.
bring zip lock bags
When heading to the location on foot or by bike, you might wonder, "Am I going the right way?" but following the navigation is perfectly fine. The crew on board is full of humor, making it a relaxing experience, and the excitement with other groups gradually builds up to a maximum tension. My wife, who is not fond of heights, said, "I'm glad I did this!" with a big smile, and she was very satisfied. I absolutely recommend it.
徒歩やbiki等で現地に向かうと「この先であってる?」と感じますがナビどおりで大丈夫です。乗船クルーもユーモアたっぷりでrelax出来ますし他のグループとの盛り上がりで次第にtension maxへ。
高い所が苦手な妻も「やって良かった!」とニコニコ顔で大満足でした。
絶対にオススメします。
I definitely recommend taking motion sickness medication just in case. Once we start, I absolutely recommend that everyone on board gets excited together. It's a great opportunity! There are no coin l
酔い止めは念のためオススメしますね。
スタートしたら乗船した皆で盛り上がる事を絶対オススメします。せっかくの機会ですから!
コインロッカーは無く各自管理ですので貴重品以外で最低限の手荷物参加を。
It was my first experience with snorkeling, but the instructor was always there to guide me and help me, so I was able to complete it safely. The waves were strong, and I didn't get to see any sea turtles, but I was able to see some fish, and it was a good experience. I was advised to rent a wetsuit to avoid scraping my knees, but I managed to get through without one.
シュノーケリング初体験でしたが、常にインストラクターの方が声掛けや手をひいて下さり、無事に終えることができました。
波が強く、ウミガメさんには会えませんでしたが、それなりにお魚さんも見れましたし、良い体験でした。
膝等を擦り剥かない様、ウエットスーツのレンタルも勧められましたが、なんとか無しで乗り切れました。
There are changing areas available after coming out of the sea, but since it's a shared space, it can be a bit awkward. I think it's better to be prepared to change quickly.
海から上がった後、着替える場所等があるのですが、共同のスペースなので、微妙です。ササッと着替えられる用意をしておいた方が良いかと思います。
I apologize for the late reply. Thank you for participating in the tour. I'm glad to hear that you were able to enjoy your first snorkeling experience safely. The first time snorkeling can feel the most challenging, but you'll get used to it and improve with each attempt. Please join us again when you come back to Hawaii. I believe you'll be even more comfortable and have even more fun this time. I'll do my best to help you spot sea turtles as well! We look forward to your next visit. Thank you. Mahalo!!
返信遅くなりごめんなさい。この度はツアーにご参加いただきありがとうございます。初めてのシュノーケリングを安全に楽しんでいただけてようで良かったです。シュノーケリングは1回目が一番難しく感じ、回を重ねるごとに慣れて上手になりますよ。ぜひまたハワイにお越しの際にはツアーにお越しくださいね。今回より慣れてもっともっと楽しんでいただけるかと思います。海亀も見つけてあげられるように頑張ります!またのお越しをお待ちしております。ありがとうございました。Mahalo!!
We booked this for our last evening on the island, and it was an amazing way to end our trip. The crew were all so nice, the entertainment was fun and interactive, and seeing the fireworks from the water on our final night was a great way to say farewell to the island.
As a tourist, I was able to enjoy beautiful scenery at places that required joining a tour. I also saw plenty of sea turtles and fish. The price was a bit high, but I had a great time throughout, the lunch was delicious, and overall, I’m glad I participated!
観光客としてはツアーに参加しないと行けない場所で綺麗な景色を楽しむことができました。ウミガメやお魚もいっぱい見れました。値段は少し高いですが、終始楽しく過ごすことができ、お昼ご飯も美味しく、総合的に参加して良かったです!
Since the time spent on the boat is relatively long, those who are prone to seasickness should be cautious.
船に乗っている時間がわりと長いので船酔いする方は注意です。
Kayaking on the river was a good workout. Our guide, Samuel, was amazing
Aloha K Mag,
Thanks for sharing our "secret" Hanalei Blue lagoon Paddle and Snorkel.
Great guiding by Samuel is getting the word out.
The panorama snorkeling below and the view above of Hanalei is unrivaled.
Will share your kind words with Samuel.
Stay active….it's a beautiful planet and Hanalei is one of its crown jewels.
A hui hou,

All the staff speak English.
Before surfing, there is an explanation at the store, and there are Japanese translations available.
After making a reservation, a consent form will be sent via email in English. You can fill it out while translating, so there’s no problem.
During surfing, the instructions are in English, but it's simple English, making it easy to understand and stand up on the board.
The view is great, facing Diamond Head on Waikiki Beach.
A wonderful benefit here is the option for additional photography for a fee. It’s quite pricey, but since they use drones for video recording, it creates amazing memories. The video can also be used to check your body movements for improving your surfing skills.
スタッフは全員英語です。
サーフィン前に店舗で説明がありますが、日本語表記あります。
予約後、事前承諾書が英語でメールが来ます。
こちらは翻訳しながら入力すれば問題ありません。
サーフィン中は英語ですが、簡単な英語なので分かりやすく簡単に立つことができます。
景色はワイキキビーチのダイヤモンドヘッド側なのですごく良いです。
ここの素晴らしいメリットは追加料金の撮影。
結構な値段がしますが、ドローンを使った動画撮影なので、素晴らしい思い出になります。
動画はサーフィンステップアップの為、体の使い方の確認に使えました。
This is my second time horseback riding in Hawaii. After a brief explanation, we set off on the trek. The horses are well-trained, allowing for a safe trekking experience. It's the best experience to see the beautiful scenery while riding a horse.
ハワイの乗馬は2回目です。簡単な説明の後トレッキングに出発です。馬がよく訓練されており、安心してトレッキングできます。きれいな景色を馬に乗りながら見られる、最高の経験です。
Had a great day out on the sandbar with great music super helpful crew good food, beautiful warm water amazing scenes lots to do super recommended
Aloha Steve,
Thank you for your 5star review with your beautiful picture. We are happy to here that you enjoyed your tour with us.
We hope to see you again soon.
Mahalo,

I had been to the top of the valley a few times before, but going into the valley was such an experience! It was incredibly peaceful, beautiful, and Kaleo was a wealth of knowledge about his home. I will absolutely be visiting again when family visits 🤙🏻 mahalo for the experience!
We are visiting from Australia and very impressed with the service and quality of this tour. Bus driver was hilarious, he had all the Dad jokes and was very informative. The Pearl Harbor Tour was both informative and respectful. Plus we received a delicious lunch. Bus was very comfortable and clean and on time. Would definitely recommend.
Dont be late for your pick up as it has a knock on effect with other passengers. We had no issues.
It was a very enjoyable experience, just as the reviews said. I recommend participating in clothes that you don't mind getting sandy.
口コミの通りとても楽しい体験でした。
本当に砂砂になりますので、捨てても良い服での参加をオススメいたします。
I loved my experience everyone was knowledgeable, provided donuts for breakfast, and the activities provided were amazing. Worth the money!
Aloha Britt,
Thank you for your 5star review. We are very happy to hear that you enjoyed your tour with us.
