All Reviews for Top Places to Visit in Hawaii

We enjoyed the scenery as a group while riding in a line, but the girl at the front of the group felt a bit anxious when the path split, as there were no instructions on which way to go, and she kept looking back to wait for the guide. Although we were a group of six, we could hardly hear the guide along the way, so it felt like we were mostly enjoying the horseback riding and the scenery on our own. The views of both the sea and the mountains were fantastic. The guide's response was good, but I think it would be even more enjoyable if those two points were improved. Also, since it wasn't a lead horse, I thought it would be reassuring to have the best rental options available.

グループで馬が1列になり景色を楽しみましたが、グループの先頭になった娘は、道が別れた時どちらに行ったら良いか、指示がなく、何度も後ろを振り返りガイドさんを待ったりと、少し不安になる時がありました…６人でのグループでしたが、途中のガイドもほとんど聞こえず、自分で乗馬と景色を楽しんだ感じでした。景気は海、山両方楽しめて最高です。ガイドのお姉さんの対応はよかったのですが、その2点が改善されるともっと楽しめると思います。あと、引き馬ではないので、是非ベストのレンタルもあると安心できると思いました。

One of the joys of going to Hawaii is being able to see Presley. I have been a big fan since he was alive. I got to see him again this time. From a distance, this Presley looked quite similar to him. His physique, voice, and singing were nearly perfect. The venue was at the Royal Hawaiian Shopping Center, which is close to the hotel, and even better, there is a food court on the second floor of this building where we had dinner. He sang six songs, including "Blue Hawaii" and "My Way." His show can't be seen without going to Las Vegas, but this one is not inferior; at the end, you can take a photo together. I highly recommend it.

ハワイに行く一つの楽しみは、プレスリーに会えることです。彼が生きている頃から、大のファンでした。今回も会えました。今回のプレスリーは遠目には顔もよく似ていました。体形、声、歌も満点に近い存在でした。会場は　ロイヤルハワイアンショッピングセンターにあり、ホテルから近くであり、さらにいいことはこの建屋の2階にはフードコートがあります、ここで夕食を済ませて行きました。ブルーハワイ、そして最後にマイウェーなど6曲も歌ってくれました。彼のショーはラスベガスに行かないと見れませんが、ここはそれに引け劣りません、最後には一緒に写真も撮ってくれます。おすすめです。

I participated with a friend in late September.

It was my first time snorkeling, and I started to feel seasick when I thought, "I want to quit because I'm feeling nauseous." At that moment, the instructor kindly guided those who wanted to stop to a designated area, which was very helpful.

I was able to see various fish and sea turtles, and I was very satisfied.

9月下旬に女子2人で参加しました。

シュノーケリングは初めてだったのですが、
途中波酔いして気持ち悪くなってきたなー
と思った時に「波酔いしてもう辞めたい方はこちらにきてください」とインストラクターの方が案内をしてくれて助かりました。

色んな魚やウミガメも見れて大満足です。

Enjoyed the day very much. Dinner was very good with so many choices - not just your average luau food. The Show itself was worth the price of admission. Our seats were so close to the stage we could feel the heat from the torches. It was a wonderful experience and would definitely recommend this tour to future Honolulu visitors.

Our driver was very friendly, and seemed to know a lot of information on the sites we were seeing in Honolulu. Was a very good way to visit the Arizona memorial - would definitely recommend visitors to Honolulu to check out this tour.

Can't say enough. From beginning to end. Easy pickup and drop off from location in Waikiki,
The whole experience from the friendly, accommodating staff. The hot off the grill burgers hit the spot .
Wanted to go s second time before leaving the island, but ran out of time.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Definitely book this one.
Mahalo to the crew

Beautiful relaxing evening. Free-flowing drinks. Thoroughly enjoyable sail.

The driver kindly explained about Hanauma in English. They repeatedly mentioned what not to do, so I understood. Before entering Hanauma, they gave us life jackets at the cliff viewpoint. If you have any additional items, it's a good idea to mention them at this time. Once we arrived at Hanauma, we gathered with the same group of guests to pool together $25 for admission. I think it’s a good idea to bring a mat or something to relax on the beach in advance. It was very kind and I had a lot of fun snorkeling.

英語にはなりますがドライバーさんが丁寧にハナウマについて説明してくれます。
やってはいけないことは何度も言うので理解できました。
ハナウマに入る前に崖の展望台でライフジャケットをくれました。他の追加品があればこの時に言いましょう。
そしてハナウマに着いたら同じグループの客で集まって25ドルもまとめ合い、ハナウマに入場します。
ビーチで休むためのシートなどを事前に持っていくといいと思います。
すごく親切で楽しくスノーケリングを楽しめました。

It was a tour where we could casually enjoy the unique nature of Hawaii. My wife has had a bit less stamina since she was in a wheelchair for about ten months a few years ago, but we are grateful for the support from the very energetic staff member, Tomomi! When you come to Hawaii, this kind of nature also helps detox your mind. I highly recommend this! Tomomi, keep up the great work!

ハワイならではの大自然を気軽に楽しめるツアーでした。家内が数年前に車椅子を10ヶ月ほど乗っていた関係で多少体力が少ないのですが、とっても元気なスタッフのトモミさんがサポートしてくれて感謝！ハワイに来たら、こんな大自然が心のデトックスもしてくれます。これもおすすめ！トモミさん、これからも頑張ってね！

Guides were entertaining, knowledgeable, and funny! They shared lots of information about the land, and culture. The boat ride was smooth and relaxing up river, and fun coming back down river. The Grotto is breathtaking! Quick easy hike to and from the grotto.

The pickup was handled by a kind guide, making the journey to the location comfortable. Along the way, I received simple explanations about the tourist spots and snorkeling techniques, which gave me a sense of reassurance.

Upon arrival, we took an official video course before heading to the beach. Since I had already heard the same instructions in Japanese from the guide, I didn't understand the English in the video, but I felt at ease knowing the content.

Once we reached the beach, we practiced snorkeling before the actual event. As I peered into the water, I immediately spotted fish. For about three hours, I followed the guide and moved around Hanauma Bay quite a bit. The snorkeling was so enjoyable that the three hours flew by.

Unfortunately, I didn't get to see any honu (turtles) this time, but it felt like I was left with a homework assignment to come back again. I definitely want to return. (^^)

For this snorkeling trip, I rented a wetsuit for an additional fee. The guide introduced it somewhat hesitantly by saying, "It's paid," but it was definitely the right choice to rent it.

There are some very shallow areas where you snorkel. During the waves, my body almost hit the shallow coral, which is actually not allowed, but it happened. I was told that this could potentially injure your skin. Even if you're careful, you never know what might happen.

I thought it would be better to splurge a little and rent the wetsuit so that it wouldn't affect my plans later on. Plus, wearing a wetsuit helps you float, so there's no worry about drowning. I highly recommend it.

On the way back, the kind guide also dropped us off, and I was able to enjoy the tour very comfortably. Thank you very much! (^^)

送迎も優しいガイドさんで、心地よく現地へ向かえました。道々、観光地の事やシュノーケリングの方法を簡単に教えてもらい、安心感を得ることができました。
現地ではオフィシャルなビデオ講習を受け、浜に向かいます。事前にガイドさんから日本語で同じ内容の注意事項を聞いていたので、ビデオの英語はわかりませんでしたが、中身はわかっているので安心。
浜へ降り立ち、実際にシュノーケリングの練習をしてから、本番へ。
海中を覗くと、すぐにお魚が。
３時間くらい、ガイドさんの後を追ってハナウマ湾内を結構動いたようです。シュノーケリングが楽しくてあっという間の３時間でした。
今回は残念ながらホヌ(カメさん)には会えませんでしたが、また来れるよう宿題を残していただいた感じです。また来たい。(^^)
今回のシュノーケリングでは
ウェットスーツを別料金でお借りしました。
ガイドさんから「有料なので」と遠慮がちに紹介されていましたが、借りて正解でした。
シュノーケリングで動く所は一部とても浅い場所があります。引き波の時に体が浅瀬のサンゴに当たりそうになる、というか、本当はダメなのですが当たってしまいました。その際に皮膚を傷つける事があるとの事でした。
気を付けていても何があるかわからない。
少し奮発してお借りした方が、後の旅程に響かず安心かなぁと。さらに、ウェットスーツを着ると浮くので、溺れる心配が内容です。尚更おすすめです。
帰りも優しいガイドさんに送っていただき、大変気持ちよくツアーを楽しむことができました。
ありがとうございました。(^^)

Great place, second time I go there. Pretty spot quiet and peaceful with a lot of activities such as jenga, ping pong etc. They also have cool activities.
Highly recommend

The tour to the Fern Grotto was great. Really enjoyed the Kauai Coffee Plantation. First time there. Good coffee. Rest of the tour was awesome. Our tour guide was also fantastic. She gave us a lot of great information and history. Definitely a memorable trip.

This was an enjoyable experience, and it’s definitely worth doing. You’ll get dirty, so remember to bring a change of clothes. But the sights you’ll see and the pictures you’ll take will be unforgettable. The cafe on-site serves some of the most delicious food. Do yourself a favor and book this tour and enjoy a fun ATV ride!

It was so much fun, a great adventure, beautiful views! The crew was great!

Gracie and Levi were the best guides. Very knowledgeable and funny! My husband and I had a great time! The views were stunning!

So much fun, amazing experience, and beautiful views

Fun thanks thanks thank you mahalo mahalo nui thank you

Thank you! Thank you, thank you thank you thank you thank you

Both of you were kind and fun, and we had a great time! The snorkeling time was enjoyable, and we had fun conversations during the car ride as well! (On the way back, everyone was asleep, so I got the privilege of sitting in the front seat!?)

We saw fish, turtles, and seals♪

【Reference Information】
- You will be in the water for one hour.
- I recommend taking motion sickness medication.
Both of us don’t usually get motion sickness, but since we were wearing life jackets, we were constantly swaying with the waves. It can make you feel queasy...
- If you get cold easily, I recommend renting a suit.
We participated on a sunny afternoon on September 19, and after an hour in the water, your body can get cold.
Slim men, please be careful...
It might be good for those who are not strong swimmers too!
- I recommend applying sunscreen on your back.
If you don’t apply sunscreen, you will get a sunburn in the shape of the life jacket strap.
You can get quite burned, so please be careful.
- A waterproof case for your smartphone is recommended.
The sea is very beautiful, so I was able to take incredibly clear photos and videos with my smartphone!!
- There is no souvenir time.
Since it’s a tour, that’s to be expected; you just go, swim, and come back. There’s no free time.
- You can receive GoPro photos.
They will post them on Facebook, so you can get them for free. They are great photos!

お二人とも優しく楽しく、楽しい時間を過ごせました！
シュノーケリングの時間はもちろん行き帰りの車中でも楽しく会話できました！（帰りはみんな寝てましたし、助手席に座ったからこその特権！？）
魚、亀、あざらし見れました♪

My first buggy experience was so much fun! It felt like something you can't experience in Japan, and I have no regrets about trying it out!! I even bought a T-shirt on-site♪

【Reference Information】
- The bus from Waikiki to Kualoa Ranch is cold. I recommend bringing a jacket.
- After arriving, you'll receive information about the meeting points for each course from a Japanese guide. Please note that further procedures may be necessary at the ticket center.
- Many comments mention getting completely covered in dust, but I didn't get that muddy. A sweat wipe was enough, and I didn't need to change.
- There is a Japanese version of the guidance video before boarding, so no problem there.
- The restaurant can get crowded, so if you plan to use it, I recommend going early.

Definitely give it a try!!

・レストラン？は混雑しているので、利用の場合は早めに行くことをおすすめします。

ぜひご参加してみてください！！

A while ago when I participated, I was seated front and back, but this time it was side by side for parasailing, so I was able to enjoy it while chatting! We went quite high up, and I was able to enjoy the wonderful views of Waikiki and Diamond Head!

ずいぶん前に参加したときは、前後で乗ったのですが、今回は横並びのパラセーリングだったので、会話しながら楽しむことができました！
大分高いところまで上がるので、ワイキキの町並みやダイアモンドヘッドの素晴らしい景色を楽しめました！

I arrived a little early, and the staff greeted me, allowing me to take photos with the hula dancers, enjoy the ukulele, and have some drinks. The food was delicious as well. I think it would be nice to have a bit more Hawaiian cuisine. The show was wonderful, and I had a great time. I was seated in the second row, center, so I could see the performers' expressions clearly. I was also able to take a photo with Michael and Elvis at the end. It was a different kind of enjoyment compared to the hula show at the Hilton.

少し早めに到着しましたが、受付の方に声掛けいただき、フラダンサーとの写真撮影・ウクレレ・飲み物などの対応を受けました。
食事も美味しかったです。もう少しハワイらしい料理が多いと良いかなとは思います。
ショーもすばらしく楽しく過ごせました。場所も２列目真ん中で表情まではっきりと見えました。
マイケル･エルビスとも最後に写真を一緒にとれました。
ヒルトンのフラショーとは違う楽しみ方ができ楽しめました。

Beautiful and relaxing. We had family visiting that couldn’t do a big hike, so this was perfect. The singing was such a nice touch.

I used a one-day pass and took two lines. I was worried, but I was able to enjoy sightseeing without any issues. I'm glad I could go to the places I wanted to visit. I would like to use it again.

一日券で、2路線を利用しました。
心配だったが無事観光でき堪能してしました。
行きたい所へ行けて良かったです。
また利用したい。

I chose this because it has good access from hotels around Waikiki and the travel time by boat is short. Since it's a boat ride, I think some people might get seasick, but it's only about a 10-minute boat ride from Waikiki Beach, so it might be bearable?? There is some rocking, so if you're worried, it's definitely a good idea to take motion sickness medication beforehand.

You can opt to have photos taken, and payment is made afterward. You need to communicate in English with the captains to request photos (if you don't ask, they won't take any). I thought they would just take a few casual shots, but they actually took quite a number of photos and even considered the composition carefully. They managed to capture beautiful shots with passing boats and planes, and I was very satisfied.

The woman at the reception was kind and greeted us with a smile, and she helped me when I was looking for the restroom (there was a restroom about a 2-minute walk away).

I gave a $20 tip to the captains when we disembarked. Thank you to all the staff for an amazing experience!

ワイキキ周辺のホテルからアクセスがよく、船での移動時間も短いという理由から申し込みしました。
船での移動ということもあり、船酔いする方もいらっしゃると思いますがワイキキビーチから10分ほど船を走らせるくらいなのでギリギリ耐えられるかも？？揺れはあるので心配な方は酔い止めを飲んでおくのが間違いないです。
オプションで写真をとってもらうことができますが支払いは後払いです。船の上で、キャプテンたちに写真をとってほしいと英語で伝える必要がありました(伝えないと写真は撮ってもらえません)。適当に何枚か撮ってくれるだけかなと思っていましたが、結構な枚数を撮影してくれており、構図までしっかり考えてくれていました。たまたま通りかかった船や飛行機と綺麗に撮ってくれていて大満足でした。
受付の女性も、優しく笑顔で対応してくれて、トイレを探して困っていたところを助けてくれました(徒歩2分くらいのとこにトイレありました)。
チップは20ドルをキャプテンたちに渡して下船しました。
スタッフのみなさま最高な体験をありがとうございました。

This was my fourth canyon tour, and I had a different experience this time. There were three participants at the beginning, and everyone was excited. It was an English tour, but it was very enjoyable.

私、小菅智は今回で4回目の渓谷ツアーでしたが今までと異なる経験をしました。初めの参加者3名いましたが皆興奮していました。英語にツアーでしたが
非常に楽しいツアーでした。

We gathered 30 minutes before the parasailing started. It was a bit far from our hotel, but we were able to get there without any issues using thebas. We boarded the boat with other participants and headed out to sea. The boat rocked quite a bit, so I think it's essential to take motion sickness medication if you're prone to seasickness. The view during parasailing was breathtaking!!! It was the best!!! You can get the data from your parasailing experience later for $40. Payment of $40 can also be made by credit card.

パラセーリング開始30半前に集合します。当方の宿泊ホテルから少し離れていましたが、thebasを使い問題なく向かうことができました。他の参加者と共に船に乗り込み、沖に向かいます。結構揺れるので、船酔いする方は酔い止め必須だと思います。パラセーリング中の景色は絶景です！！！最高でした！！！パラセーリング中のデータを後で40ドルでもらうことが出来ます。40ドルはクレカでも支払い可能でした。

Whether you like sunrise or sunset is personal, I do prefer sunsets: colors are more intense and after that the night comes with a zillion stars, a wondrous show magnified by the purity of the air.
Yoshi, the man from Maui All Stars, in charge of the tour is a courteous man and also a passionate astronomer. He does everything to make you feel comfortable: chairs, blankets, tea, cookies and a powerful Meade telescope that will bring you amazing views of moon and the stars.
What I want to point out is the importance of doing this with someone who loves what he's doing.
Unforgettable moment!
Thank you, Yoshi!!!

Jeff was an incredible tour guide! He was educational and also was great about making sure the group was doing okay! We had so much fun and would do again/recommend to friends!!
