All Reviews for Top Places to Visit in Hawaii

Great little trip into the ocean to view coral reef and fish! Beautiful clear blue water. Staff very knowledgeable. Loved it!

Weather was ideal for gliding, some clouds but above where we were flying.

Aerobatic exercises are exciting and one is able to experience some G-forces plus weightlessness during the loops. A most enjoyable flight from take off to landing. Would do it again if the opportunity presented itself.

The sunrise at Haleakalā was a wonderful experience. The hour and a half leading up to the sunrise is extremely cold, but in exchange, you can enjoy the stars as if they are falling. What helped against the cold was my ski gloves. Even so, my fingertips were freezing. I definitely want to visit this place again.

ハレアカラのサンライズ、すばらしい体験でした。
日の出までの1時間半の間は、それはそれは寒いですが、代わりに降ってくるかのような星々も堪能できます。寒さ対策でよかったのは、スキー用のグローブ。それでも指先が凍えるくらいでしたが。
またぜひ、訪れたい場所です。

The trip was excellent. Parking at the Maalea harbor dock is a pain. In the future tell your clients to get the ParkWhiz app on their phone You can pay for close up parking on this app. The code reader at the dock is crappy. Our Lanai on site guide, Russ was a wealth of information and had as much fun with us and the other couple as we did with him and the tour. A nice day was had by all.

Great show, standing in a buffet line. A little tiring, food was great

My wife and I were treated to a magnificent drive down the unusually steep road into Waipio Valley in the early afternoon of Thursday, 4/18/24. Our tour guide Kaleo is a great young man who has lived in this unique place for most of his life; he grew up here. Kaleo was friendly, very knowledgeable, and very hospitable. He led us to several spectacular sites including waterfalls, lush foliage, and flowing streams. One could readily sense the tremendous power and majesty of this valley. We will treasure the opportunity we had to visit here. Our tour was for 1.75 hours. We HIGHLY recommend taking time to experience this great tour!

I had a great time!!
The initial explanation was given by a Japanese person, so I felt reassured!!
When the weather is nice, the dust is quite bad, so your T-shirt will definitely get dirty, so a change of clothes is essential!

凄く楽しかったです！！
最初の説明は日本人の方がして下さいますので、安心でした！！
天気が良いと、砂ぼこりが凄くTシャツは確実に汚れるので、着替えは必須です！

My wife, who can't swim, was pulled along on a board during snorkeling, and we received various instructions, allowing us to see the underwater world (we even saw turtles).

シュノーケリングの時に泳げない妻を
ボードで引っ張ってくれて色々と指導も
してくれたので海中（亀も見れました）も
見る事ができました。

My husband and I did the half-day tour which included; the movie set tour on Kualoa Ranch and the boat ride. I thought we were actually going to stay at secret Beach for a little bit, but we did not. The movie tour was made, especially memorable by our awesome tour guide. She was hilarious and made the whole experience that much better. It’s an absolutely beautiful place and we enjoyed learning about the working ranch, and the Hawaiian culture. The buffet lunch in between both tours was also very enjoyable. I highly recommend this tour.

The staff was friendly, helpful and professional. The trip was wonderful and there are many providers available, and the value for service on this trip was excellent. They were punctual, the equipment was in good condition. Turtle Canyon has turtles, but lots of other tour boats. They were very situationally aware which kept us safe. We also got some bonus dolphin activity on the way out and back. Two thumbs up.

Me and my friend had a wonderful experience at Old Lahaina.
I appreciate the history behind the island and sharing of the Hawaiian culture.
I would advise to call a day or two before the show if you did not receive your confirmation. I was happy that I called earlier. The representative wasn't able to get me the traditional seating (what i ordered) however there was space available for the table and chair.
The waiters were very accommodating because for some reason when I made the change from traditional seating to table and chair my food option did not transition over (i dont not eat pork or beef) however they were ae to provide me with fish and chicken.
Thank you so much for being flexible.
Lastly, my friend and I arrived an hour early. Do what you will but when they say the door open at a certain time be prepared to wait until that exact time

Just kind of boring. Better suited for families with little kids. Food was gross. No booze to order. There’s nowhere to shower or change afterwards either.

We took this vessel out to watch whales. The staff were awesome. Provided a lot of great information of life as a whale. The water was a bit choppy so there was a bit of rocking. After we disembarked, the Captain spent a good 10-15 minutes out of his busy schedule to talk with us.
I highly recommend the tour!

This was such a a fun time! The crew and musicians are what made it so good. They all exude the aloha spirit. The live music was such a a treat, they had really good rapport with our group and were so fun, and talented too. The crew was so wonderful and so nice.
The bay itself is a treasure, so so beautiful. The water is gorgeous, the mountains are stunning. They provide paddle boards, kayaks, snorkel gear, and volleyballs.
And the crew is very helpful with all of the gear and how to.use.it. I would recommend it!

The blue sea and blue sky. I was healed by the wonderful scenery. It was great to walk in the water and enjoy feeding the many fish. The live music on the boat was also fantastic. It became a very nice memory.

青い海、青い空。素晴らしい景色に癒されました。海の中を歩いて楽しんだり、沢山のお魚に餌を揚げて楽しんだりいろいろ遊べて良かったです。船の中での生演奏の歌も素晴らしかったです。とてもいい思い出になりました。

It was a windy day, so when we went out to sea, the people at the bow of the boat were tossed up and down enough to get splashed by the waves, but it felt like a thrilling attraction. It was a great boat trip with a wonderful view of Waikiki and Diamond Head.

風が強い日だったので、沖に出ると船先に居る人は波をかぶる位上下に揺れましたが、まるでアトラクション並みのスリル。ワイキキやダイアモンドヘッドを一望して良い船旅でした。

The rice was delicious, and the pineapple juice was rich in flavor, making me want to refill it multiple times. The show also featured songs sung in Japanese, which I found very touching.

ご飯も美味しく、パイナップルジュースも味が濃いくて、何度もおかわりしたくなりました。
ショーも日本語で歌も歌っていただき、感度しました

Everything about the cruise was great. The crew was super and a lot of fun. The drinks were great. We had a wonderful time.

I used a private cruiser.

Captain Masaki was friendly, kind to the children, and very reliable.

I had checked the tide chart in advance, but since it was negative (I thought, maybe the sandbar would be out if we were lucky?), I didn't have high expectations. However, the sandbar appeared beautifully, and everyone was thrilled! It was cold, so I hesitated to get in the water at first, but the captain helped by saying, "I have wetsuits!" which was a great relief. We enjoyed paddleboarding and playing with water guns...

After playing for a while, we went snorkeling, and when the captain said, "Look, there are sea turtles down here," I looked where he pointed and saw a sea turtle. I was moved to see so many sea turtles. The children got to ride on a Zayak, which has a transparent bottom for observing underwater, and the captain pulled them along, so our whole family was able to observe the ocean and see the sea turtles, spending a wonderful time together.

It seems not only the adults but also the children had a great time, as they said, "I want to go to the heavenly sea again!"

Thank you for the wonderful time.

I also enjoyed chatting with driver Tim.

プライベートクルーザーを利用させて頂きました。

キャプテンのMASAKIさんも気さくで子供にも優しくて頼もしい方でした。

潮位表を事前に見ていましたが、マイナスになっていたから（運が良ければサンドバーが出てるかも？）とそれほど期待せずに行きましたが、しっかりとサンドバーが現れており、皆大喜び！
寒かったので初めは水に入るのを躊躇していたらキャプテンが「ウエットスーツあるよー」と貸してくれたからかなり助かりました。supしたり水鉄砲で遊んだり…
ひとしきり遊んだ後にシュノーケルをしましたが「ここ、ウミガメいるよー下ー」ってキャプテンの言う先を見るとウミガメがいて、たくさんのウミガメを見ることが出来て感動しました。
子供はZAYAKというソリの底面が透明になっていて水の中が観察できるものに乗せてもらってキャプテンがずっと引っ張ってくれたので、家族全員でそれぞれが海の中を観察してウミガメを見られて素晴らしい時間を過ごせました。
大人だけでなく、子供もすごく楽しかったみたいで「また天国の海に行きたーい！」と言っています。

素敵な時間をありがとうございました。

運転手ティムのおしゃべりも楽しかったです。

It was the perfect and best night to cap off our last day in Hawaii!! I definitely want to make a reservation for this on our next trip to Hawaii and plan to see it on the last day!! I highly recommend it ^_^

ハワイの最終日を飾るのにピッタリで最高な夜になりました！！
またハワイに来た時には予約して最終日に見て帰るプランにしようと思えるぐらい間違いなしです！！ぜひオススメです^_^

enjoy this tour. I got a chance to try all the activities. All the crews are enthusiastic and nice, supportive. Life guards paid attention to our safety all the time.

Russ is an excellent guide, knowledgeable, friendly, and accommodating.

my friends and I attended the mai tai catamaran cruise on a beautiful afternoon sail. Dustin and Ryan were great tour guides and gave wonderful drinks.

excellent time with fish and turtles.
crew was also excellent :)

Horseback riding while enjoying the vast scenery was amazing. It was a solid two hours of non-stop riding, with no breaks in between. There was hardly any time to relax. Make sure to use the restroom beforehand. Your butt and legs can get quite tired; researching how to ride might help ease that. The staff members were all wonderful. The accompanying staff took photos along the way and transferred them to my phone afterward. When I come back, I don't think I'll want to try other activities since I already rode last time; I still want to ride again. For such an experience, the price was more than satisfactory.

広大な景色を見ながらの乗馬は最高でした。
2時間みっちりのノンストップ、途中下馬なし。
気を抜く暇はほぼ無いです。
トイレは必ず済ませて起きましょう。
お尻と脚はなかなか疲れます、乗馬の仕方など調べて挑むと軽減されるのかもしれません。
スタッフの皆さんも素敵な方ばかりです。
付き添いのスタッフの方が途中写真を撮ってくれて、終わった後に携帯へ転送してくれます。
また来た時は、前回乗馬はしたから他のアクティビティをとは思わず、まだ乗馬をしたいと思います。あれだけの体験でこの価格は十分に満足できました。

We participated in a honeymoon trip in early April. There was a note that we needed to check in 30 minutes before the 13:30 start time, so we arrived as planned at 13:00. However, we were told to wait on the beach until 14:00, possibly because the previous group was late. There were about 8 participants in total, and we were the only Japanese. Everyone wore swimsuits with light clothing over them.

The boat ride to the site was quite fast and bumpy, which felt like an attraction in itself! I tend to get motion sickness easily, so I took motion sickness medication (Aneron) and tried to manage my hunger, but I still got seasick. We jumped in pairs, and since we were the last to go, I thought it might be better for those who get motion sickness to jump first.

The height was 150 meters, and the view while flying was breathtaking, but with the seasickness and the swaying, I felt even more nauseous while trying to enjoy the scenery. While we were returning, other participants were getting sick and vomiting into the sea. After the experience, those who wanted could purchase the photos taken during the jump.

I think I could have enjoyed it more if I hadn't gotten sick, but it was a valuable experience! If you are prone to motion sickness, please make sure to take motion sickness medication!

4月上旬にハネムーン、夫婦で参加しました。
13:30〜で30分前に受付との注意事項があったので、13:00に予定通り到着しましたが、前の組が遅れていたのか分かりませんが45分までビーチで時間潰してきてと言われ、ツアー開始は14:00頃だったと思います。
参加者は、全員で8名程。日本人は私たちだけでした。皆さん、水着を着用して上から薄手の服を着て参加していました。
沖までの船がスピードがそこそこありかなり揺れもありそれが既にアトラクションのようでした笑
私は車でもすぐに酔うので、酔い止め（アネロン）を飲んでいき、空腹にも満腹にもしないようにも気をつけていきましたが船酔いしました…笑
2人1組で順番に飛びましたが、1番最後だったので酔いやすい方は最初に飛ぶ方がいいのかなと思いました。
高さは150mで飛んでいる時の景色は圧巻なのですが、船酔いしてる上でまたフワフワ揺れるのでまたさらに酔ってなんとか吐かないように景色を見てた感じです笑
全員終わって帰る間に、他の参加者の方は酔って海に吐いてました。終わった後に、撮ってもらった写真も希望する人は購入できます。
酔わなければもっと楽しめたかなと思いますし、貴重な経験になりました！
酔いやすい人は必ず酔い止め飲んで下さい！！！

A large high-speed boat was launched, but the waves were high and it rocked quite a bit, causing some people to get seasick. There were also a few people on the deck getting soaked by the waves. After about an hour and a half, we arrived at the Napali Coast, where breathtaking views spread out in a panorama. On the way back, we enjoyed the sunset, making it a double delight.

大きな高速船出すが波が高くかなり揺れ船酔いした方も何人かいました。
デッキで波もかぶってびしょ濡れになってる方もチラホラ〜1時間半位でナパリコースト到着
絶景がパノラマで広がります。
帰りはサンセットとなりダブルで楽しめたました。

Great staff. They made us feel safe and welcome. Provided a fun environment with information, jokes and help with photos.
Will come back and do it again.

We chose this Luau experience because it was in Wakiki area. First you arrive to a mall and go to floor 4 for dinner. Dinner was outdoor under a covered area. The food quality was great and the entertainment during the meal was fantastic. Hula dancers and music. Thye even invited guests up to try hula. For us the dinner was the best part. Now on to the show.
If you are looking for a traditional Hula show at a Luau, go elsewhere. This show is in a theatre, so you are indoor. The show is Hawaiian dance thru the ages. It begins with a traditional hula dance and ends with one, but the majority of the show is Elvis and Micheal Jackson performances. Now, the quality of the performance by the performers was first class. All the singers and dancers were excellent performers, so for a show, it was well worth the money we paid. It just isn't what you think of for a traditional Luau. It is better to take a shuttle and to somewhere like Gerards if you want a traditional Luau experience including making Laies and seeing the pig pulled from the ground.

I had a reservation for the last event of the season on April 15, 2024, but due to rain, the boat could not go out. I was contacted and given the option to reschedule for another day or receive a refund. Since I had some flexibility in my itinerary, I requested to reschedule for April 16 if possible, and they agreed to operate the boat on that day as well!

I wanted my 2-year-old son, who loves whales and dolphins, to see these natural creatures, so I rescheduled. On the day of the trip, it was sunny and we were able to set sail, and we saw both whales and dolphins, which was wonderful! The English guide provided thorough information, and it was an interesting experience!

However, be careful as the address for the meeting point provided in the voucher and on the website was incorrect. If you rely on the address, you will end up at the far end of the harbor. The correct meeting point is at Pink Sails Waikiki, which you can find by searching; it’s located just before the harbor, where you turn right at the first road (with hotels on your right and continuing straight past the boats on your left). If you are traveling with small children, it can be quite a hassle, so please be cautious!

今季最後の開催日である2024/4/15に予約をしていましたが、雨天で船が出せないことに。別日に振替か返金かを選べると連絡がありました。
旅程に余裕があったため、可能なら4/16に振り替えたいと連絡すると、予定になかった4/16も船を出してくれることに！
クジラとイルカが好きな2歳の息子に自然の生き物を見せたかったので、振り替えました。当日は無事に晴れて出航できたし、クジラもイルカも見られてとてもよかったです！
英語ガイドも丁寧な内容で、興味深い体験が出来ました！

ただ、バウチャーやべるとら上で事前に連絡されていた集合場所の住所が違っていたので要注意です。
住所を頼りに行くと、ハーバーの一番奥に到着してしまいます。正しい集合場所はピンクセイルズワイキキで検索して出てくる、ハーバーの1番手前の道を右に曲がったところ（右手にホテル郡、左に船を見て真っ直ぐ進んだ先）です。
小さいお子さん連れの場合、かなりの労力を浪費することになるのでご注意ください！
