All Reviews for Top Places to Visit in Hawaii

Tremendous experience - incredible crew - jump then go to Wicked HI Cafe for the best post-jump meal ever.

Premier seat reservation for a family of four.
I was hoping to be seated on the front side, but we ended up on the edge of the front row. I was worried about whether we would be able to see properly, but it turned out to be quite impressive because we were so close (though we did get a little splashed).
I think the theater has good visibility with steps in all the seats, but if you have small children, it might be wise to be careful with your seat selection. If a larger person from Europe or America sits in front of you, you might not be able to see.

プレミアシート予約　家族4人
正面側になれば良かったのですが、最前列の端側でした。ちゃんと見えるかなと不安でしたが、端側でも問題ないどころか近いためかなり迫力があります。(少し水が掛かります)
全ての席に段差があり見やすい劇場かと思いますが、小さいお子さんがいる場合は席の選択を気を付けたほうがいいかも。前の席に欧米のカラダが大きな方が座ると見えないかもしれません。

I was able to see the honu (sea turtle). It's recommended to go when you have enough stamina, as you'll be snorkeling for a long time. I felt cold and got a bit seasick along the way, but thanks to the instructors, I was able to participate in a fun atmosphere.

ホヌが見れました。長い時間シュノーケリングをする為、体力がある時がお勧めです。途中で寒く感じ波酔いをしましたが、先生方のお陰で楽しい雰囲気で参加出来ました。

Good history lesson. Touching. Lots to do and see. Want to go back and see th e air museum

The staff is very friendly, helpful, and have a sense of humor! For the zip lining. It’s was fun! The short “hikes” weren’t too bad. Waiting stations with cups available were also on every other zip line area.

This was my first luau and I really didn't know what to expect. I was greatly impressed with the quality of the program, the enthusiasm of the performers and the outstanding cuisine we enjoyed for the meal. The evening with the Toa Luau group was an unforgettable highlight to our visit to Hawaii. In addition to the luau, we had the opportunity to hike to the waterfall while enjoying the beauty of the botanical garden. As I said, the whole experience was unforgettable.

No time to relax on this excursion. We flew to Captain Cook on a zodiac boat with little room to sit or move about. The snorkeling was OK and the guides were helpful. Everything felt rushed from the get go. This trip sure gave us a lot of chuckles when rehashing our day.

Great service,on time pickup. Navigated transportation well. The guides shined with extras such as wetsuits for hire and even prescription mask. In the water they knew where to find the fish and the easiest routes through the reef. Best snorkel tour for beginners. Lots of fun even for experienced snorkelers.

I have seen Cirque du Soleil about eight times around the world. This time, I watched it in Hawaii, and it was so moving that I was brought to tears. The precision of the performances was, of course, impressive, but each individual composition was also wonderful. My family who accompanied me was also touched. I highly recommend that whether you come to Hawaii for travel, study abroad, or business, you make sure to see it.

今までシルクドソレイユは８回ほど全世界で鑑賞してきました。　今回ハワイで鑑賞しましたが、涙が出るほど感動しました。　演技のキレはもちろんですが、一つ一つの構成が素晴らしかった。　同伴の家族も感動していました。　ぜひハワイに旅行、留学、ビジネスどれで来ても、鑑賞する事お勧めします。

Congratulations to the entire company team and the instructors!

The scenery was amazing! The UTV ride so fun. Only suggestion is to slow it down just a little so the driver can enjoy the view more. Driver had to focus on driving too much

Although the weather was not favorable, the staff's response was excellent. It was a dress shoot for our honeymoon, and the Japanese staff taught us about posing and angles. Despite the cold during the shoot, they provided support, and we had a wonderful time.

天候に恵まれませんでしたが、スタッフの対応が良かった。ハネムーンでドレスの撮影でしたが日本人スタッフがポージングや画角まで教えてくださったり、寒い中の撮影でしたがサポートしてくれて素晴らしい時間を過ごせました。

I participated in a tour that ended in the morning. The weather wasn't very good, and it was a bit chilly, but I didn't feel as cold as I thought I would when I got into the water. During snorkeling, there were many colorful fish, and I encountered a turtle a couple of times. Additionally, there was a pod of dolphins a little further out, making it a satisfying tour in a short amount of time. Next time I come to Hawaii, I want to recommend it to my friends and join them.

午前中で終了するツアーでしたので参加してみました。余り良い天候ではなく、少し肌寒い気温でしたが海に入ると思ったより寒く感じませんでした。シュノーケリングでは様々な色の魚がたくさんいて、カメさんにも２度程遭遇デキました。更に少し先の方にはイルカの群れがいてたりと短時間で色々と満足デキたツアーでした。次回、ハワイに来た時には友人達に勧めて一緒に参加したいです。

Although it was the rainy season, there was a break in the weather before we set off, so we left our jackets in the car and started out in short sleeves. However, as we headed towards the mountains, a cold drizzle began to fall. At first, we enjoyed the bumps of the buggy and splashing through puddles, but since there was no front window, rain poured in while driving, soaking our seats and leaving us completely drenched. By the end, it was too cold and quite uncomfortable.

The instructor was humorous and kind, taking photos for us. However, the instructor was dressed warmly in a raincoat and long sleeves and pants, so I thought it would have been nice if they had offered to lend us raincoats at least.

The advertisement featured a photo of passing through the Jurassic World gate, which my husband seemed to be looking forward to, but we only stopped at about three points, and we passed by what seemed to be the gate without stopping. My husband, a huge Jurassic Park fan, was a bit disappointed.

I think it's best to participate in this activity with the mindset of enjoying the magnificent mountains and nature in a buggy.

雨季であはりますが出発前は晴れ間があったのでジャケットなどは車に置いて半袖で出発。しかし山の方へ進むと霧雨のような冷たい雨が降り始めました。初めはバギーの揺れや水たまりをバシャバシャと走り楽しんでいましたが、フロントの窓がないので運転中雨が降りこんで席も濡れてしまい全身びしょ濡れになりました。最後の方は寒すぎて辛かったです。
インストラクターさんはユーモアがあり写真を撮ってくれたりと親切でした。しかし、インストラクターさんだけレインコートと長袖長ズボンで暖かそうな装いだったので、せめてレインコートの貸し出しなどの声かけがあるといいなと思いました。
広告にはジュラシックワールドのゲートをくぐる写真があったので主人はそれを期待していたようでしたが、ストップポイントは3つほどでゲートと思われるところも素通り。ジュラシックパーク大ファンの主人は少しがっかりしていました。
バギーで壮大な山々と自然を楽しむアクティビティと思って参加するといいと思います。

Absolutely loved this activity!!! Our tour guides Vea, Everette, and Emely were amazing and made our tour so much fun! Definitely a must when in Hawai’i!

I couldn't see any dolphins, whales, or turtles, not even a shadow or a hint of their presence, and I felt no motivation to search for them. The first snorkeling spot had hardly any fish, yet we were made to swim there for a long time. The second snorkeling spot was really great, but I got cold and tired from the first spot, so I ended up spending less time at the second one, which was disappointing. The hot dog for lunch had a sickly red sausage that was surprisingly bad, and I couldn't eat it. It was the worst hot dog I've ever had; I always thought you couldn't make a hot dog taste bad no matter how you prepared it, so I was shocked. There were no pineapples. The boat was simpler than I expected and rocked a lot, making it uncomfortable to ride. I thought the quality for this price was terrible.

イルカもクジラもカメも影も形もみえず、気配さえ感じられず、なんとか探そうという気概も感じられず。一回目のシュノーケルスポットはたいして魚もいないのに長時間泳がされて、2回目のシュノーケルスポットはとてもよかったのに、一回目のシュノーケルスポットで冷えて疲れて2回目の方が短時間になってしまい物足りなかった。ランチのホットドッグが気持ち悪い赤い色のソーセージで、びっくりするほどまずく、食べられなかった。こんなにまずいホットドックはうまれて初めて、ホットドックなんてどう作ってもまずくはならないと思っていたので衝撃だった。パイナップルはなかった。船も思っていたより簡易的で揺れて乗り心地が悪かった。この値段でこの内容はひどすぎると思いました。

I rode for two hours.
I was able to enjoy a panoramic view of the sea and mountains in the great outdoors. I was excited to visit a location that served as the setting for the 1993 film Jurassic Park.
Since I was riding for two hours straight, be careful of muscle soreness.

2時間騎乗してきました。
大自然の中で海、山を一望することができました。山コースでは、1993年公開のジュラシックパークの舞台となった場所に行くことができ興奮しました。【作品はジュラシックパーク1です。】
2時間騎乗しっぱなしなので、筋肉痛には注意を

We booked the Kaneohe sandbar standard package as we had our 2 year old kid travelling with us. We got to do a bit of everything swim, snorkel, kayak and paddleboard. My son enjoyed his first kayak ride. There is a good deck once u reach the sandbar where we can relax in between activities. The crew were friendly and hospitalable. We enjoyed the music onboard. I would definitely recommend the Kaneohe sandbar experience to anyone visiting Oahu !!!!

The weather was a bit bad, with many clouds, but Diamond Head looked very beautiful. Also, it was a great experience to see the rainbow at such a beautiful moment! The explanations and reception were provided in Japanese and simple English.

少し天気が悪く、雲は多かったですがダイヤモンドヘッドがとても綺麗に見えました。
また、虹がとても綺麗に見えるタイミングで良い経験になりました！
説明や受付は日本語と簡単な英語で対応いただけました。

At the pickup location at Twin Fin, several buses were parked, and there was no clear guidance on which bus to take, making it difficult to know where to go. Driving the buggy myself was a lot of fun, and I felt like a child again as I raced around the magnificent scenery. The weather was great and refreshing. Next time, I plan to try horseback riding.

ピックアップ場所のツインフィンには数台のバスが止まっていて特に案内があるわけでもなくどのバスに乗ればいいのかわかりずらかったです
バギーは自分で運転し壮大な景色を走り回り童心に戻るくらい楽しかったです
お天気も良く爽快でした
次回は乗馬体験に来ようと思います

The tour was very good.

It was disappointing that the pickup time was delayed. If there is going to be a delay, I would like to be informed by email. The phone line was not reachable. I hope this can be improved.

ツアーはとても良かったです

お迎えの時間が遅れていた事は残念です

We had an amazing time on the boat. The food was delicious, the crew was amazing, and we saw whales. We were traveling with a 4 and 6 year old and they had all the perfect amenities for kids. 10/10!

5/5 stars! The Polynesian Cultural Center Tour was a trip highlight! Well-organized, easy to follow, and bursting with energy. The setting was perfection!

We had a great experience parasailing. It was definitely a highlight of our trip. The crew was friendly, experienced, and we felt safe and well taken care of. Our group consisted of 2 adults and 4 teens (15 & 17 y/o). We were combined with one other family of 5.

First of all, the driver was great. Being Japanese made me feel at ease. Thanks to their service-oriented spirit and the various information they provided, I was able to fully enjoy the North Shore even in a short time. It was my first time horseback riding, and I was worried, but the thorough explanation of the precautions in the vehicle allowed everything to proceed smoothly. The local female staff were also kind, and my son, who is in the third year of middle school, enjoyed horseback riding as well. He said it was the best part of our trip. I was also satisfied with the delicious restaurants they recommended. The ocean was very beautiful, and I would love to go to the North Shore again.

まずドライバーさんが良かったですね。
日本人で安心できます。
サービス精神があって、色々情報を提供してくださったおかげで、短時間でもノースショアを満喫できました。
乗馬も初めてで心配でしたが、車内でしっかり注意事項を説明していただいたお陰でスムーズに進行出来ました。
現地の女性スタッフの方々も親切で、中学3年の息子でも乗馬を楽しめました。今回の旅で一番良かったと言っています。
食事も美味しいお店をご紹介いただいたお陰で満足出来ました。
海がとてもキレイで、もう一度ノースショアに行きたいですねー。

I enjoyed a thrilling and exciting time. My son, who is in his third year of middle school, was also happy. Although my reservation was confirmed, the email from Veltra only registered one ticket, so I had to pick up another ticket at the service counter. However, the staff were kind, and even though the two of us couldn't speak English, we were assisted without any difficulty. It seems better to head to the reception early, as there were many people who entered just before the show started. I also remember seeing a note that drinks could only be purchased inside the venue, but it was quite vague. When I asked the staff checking tickets if I could bring in a plastic bottle, they just ignored the question.

ハラハラドキドキの時間を楽しめました。
中学3年の息子も喜んでいました。
予約は通っていましたが、ベルトラさんから送られてきたメールでは1名分しかチケット登録されていなくて、サービスカウンターでもう一人分のチケットを受け取る必要が生じましたが、スタッフの方も優しくて、英語喋れない二人でも苦労なく対応してもらえました。
こういうこともあるので、早めに受付に向かう方が良さそうです。
ただ、ほとんどの方は開演直前になって入場して来られる感じでした。
また飲み物は店内購入以外持ち込めないような記載があった気がしますが、わりとアバウトで、ペットボトル持込可能かをチケット確認のスタッフに聞いたら、スルーでした。

The weather was nice, and the wind was calm, so I didn't feel seasick at all. As soon as we headed out, we were able to see a mother and baby whale. Although the staff only spoke English, they were very service-oriented and moved us to another area to search for and show us another whale. I had hoped to enjoy the cruising even if we didn't see any whales, but it turned out to be the best whale watching experience!

天気も良く風も穏やかで船酔いも全くしませんでした。沖に出てすぐに親子のくじらを見られました。英語のみですがスタッフもサービス精神があり、また別のエリアに移動して別のくじらも探して見せてくれました。
くじらが見られない日もあるようだったので、クルージングだけでも楽しめればと思いましたが、最高のホエールウォッチングになりました！

It was a two-hour experience of rain coming and going. I was worried about whether I could enjoy it, but the misty scenery was fantastic. I was anxious about riding for two hours, but the smart horse mostly moved on its own. The instructor used a little Japanese, but it was mostly in English. I couldn't understand most of it, but I had a very enjoyable time riding for the first time in the great outdoors. Thank you very much.

雨が降ったり止んだりの2時間でした
楽しめるか心配でしたが　もやのかかった景色も幻想的でよかったです
2時間も馬に乗るのは不安でしたが賢いお馬さんでほぼ自分で進んでいってくれました
インストラクターの方は少し日本語を使ってくれましたがほぼ英語です
聞き取れない箇所がほとんどでしたが初めての乗馬と大自然の中でとても楽しい時間を過ごせました
ありがとうございました

Our driver was wonderful and funny. I appreciate that he called us to tell us he had arrived at the pick-up spot. We didn’t see the van pull up and he was parked behind us. The hike is demanding especially in the rain. It was quite slippery on the way down. We had already purchased ponchos, but our driver had some for sale. We were able to complete the hike easily within the timeframe, and had time to stop in the gift shop. Just be aware of the weather and plan accordingly. Good shoes are a must!

I participated in a sunset cruise. Right after we set sail, we were lucky enough to spot a whale, but since the boat was large, we observed it from a bit of a distance. It might be good to have binoculars.

The cheerful captain explained various things, but everything was in English. I think those who understand English will enjoy it.

After observing the whales, we headed near Diamond Head. They took pictures of us with the mountain in the background. After that, we slowly returned to the harbor while watching the sunset. The sunset from the sea was breathtaking, and I was very moved.

Once the sun set, we returned to the harbor and disbanded.

サンセットクルーズに参加しました。
出港後すぐにクジラがみつかりラッキーでしたが、船が大きいためか少し離れた場所から観察する感じでした。双眼鏡があるといいかもです。
陽気な船長さんが色々と説明してくれるのですが全て英語です。英語が分かる方は楽しめると思います。
一通りクジラを観察した後はダイヤモンドヘッド近くまで行きます。山をバックに写真を撮ってくれました。その後ゆっくり港に戻りながら夕陽を眺めます。洋上からの夕陽は絶景で、とても感動しました。
日が沈んだら帰港、解散となります。
