All Reviews for Top Places to Visit in Hawaii

Even though the water was a bit chilly we had a lot of fun. The singing was sensational on the way there. We saw a bunch of big fish after walking a hundred steps, there were a lot more colorful ones near the corals. After snorkeling , we did a bit of kayaking as well, the sun came out and we warmed up. Tip: look up low tide times a few days ahead and book appropriate sessions, we didn’t do that so the sandbar was not visible.

It was December, so the sea was quite cold, but I had an amazing time! The sandbar was stunning, and the hamburger was delicious! During snorkeling, I was lucky enough to see a sea turtle, which made for a very fulfilling experience! But next time, I think I want to go during a warmer season.

12月でしたので海がまぁまぁ冷たかったですが、めちゃくちゃ楽しかったです！
サンドバーは絶景でしたし、ハンバーガーも美味しかった！
シュノーケリングでは、運良くウミガメを見ることも出来てとても充実した時間でした！
でも今度は暖かい時期に行きたいかな。

The guide was super good and really informative. Truly suggest this to everyone

I had to wait in the sea for a long time without anything to do because there weren't enough canoes or SUPs, and it took a while for someone to switch with me. It was cold that day, and I endured while shivering. For some reason, I couldn't go to the area where there were many other boats (it looked like a beautiful white sandy beach, like a heavenly sea). This tour was separated from that.

カヌーやsupが足りなくて海の中で何もすることなくずっと待ってましたが、、なかなか代わってもらえなかった。その日は寒くて震えながら耐えました。なぜかわからないですが、他のたくさんの船がいるところへはいけなく（そちらが白い砂の浜辺のように見えて天国の海という感じです綺麗だった）このツアーだけ離れてました。

We’ve been to Waipio Valley several times but have never taken a guide-led tour, and it made a huge difference. The guide was charming, knowledgeable and experienced. We saw parts of the valley that we wouldn’t have been able to in the past, and certainly now that the valley is closed to non-residents. Highly recommend!

The evening show was not a typical Hawaiian luau; it had a storyline that felt reminiscent of a performance by the Shiki Theatre Company in Japan. Compared to traditional ones, it had a stronger entertainment flair, but it was very enjoyable with a nice balance of laughter and emotion.

イブニングショーは典型的なハワイのルアウでなく、ストーリーがあり、日本で言えば劇団四季の様な演出に似たものを感じました。伝統的なものに比べれば演出色が強いエンターテイメントという感じですが、笑い、感動のメリハリがありとても楽しかったです。

The female guide provided very detailed explanations, allowing us to enjoy the experience with peace of mind until the end. Additionally, she shared helpful information about local restaurants, which was very useful. Thank you very much.

女性のガイドの方が大変詳しい説明をして下さり、最後まで安心して楽しむことができました。また、現地のレストラン情報なども教えていただき、大変役に立ちました。有難うございました。

It seems that the impact of global warming will not cause islands to emerge. I'm glad to hear that you're from Japan. The hamburger was also very delicious.

温暖化？の影響で島が出てくる事はないそうです。日本の方なので助かります。ハンバーガーもとても美味しかったです。

The guide was unique and provided detailed explanations. I was able to reappreciate the beauty of Kualoa. I want to go again. Fortunately, we participated in the tour as a pair and were lucky to receive explanations in Japanese. It was truly a fun tour experience. Next time, I want to ride a buggy.

案内の方がユニークで、説明も詳しく教えてもらい。クアロアの良さが再認識しました。また行きたいと思います。
ラッキーなことにツアーは二人で参加で運良く、日本語で説明してもらい。本当に楽しいツアー体験です。今度はバギーに乗りたいです

The staff were fantastic. The location was fantastic. Glad we only had about 35 people along. 100… their max is 100. It got a little crowded in the area they confine you too. I also did not like wearing the life preserver while snorkeling. I could have spent the whole morning on the reef, but they only let you visit half.

Dan did a great job working with our kids and giving them a great first experience.

The staff really got everyone excited, and I was able to enjoy it more than I expected. It was my first time, and it was my wife's third, but we were very satisfied to see dolphins swimming alongside the boat and to spot humpback whales multiple times, which is a rare experience.

Although I couldn't swim with the dolphins, I was able to swim with turtles during the snorkeling session, and it was also great to experience the waterslide and stand-up paddleboarding.

I will definitely come again. Thank you for today.

スタッフの方が盛り上げてくださり、予想以上に楽しむことができました。私は初めてで、妻は3回目でしたが、イルカが船の先頭で伴奏したり、今ならではの、ザトウクジラを何回も見ることができて、非常に満足です。

イルカと一緒に泳ぐことは叶いませんでしたが、シュノーケルのタイミングでは亀と一緒に泳ぐことができたり、ウォータースライダーやサップを体験できたことも非常に良かったです。

また必ずきます。
本日はありがとうございました。

It might have been a timing issue, but the sandy beach was not accessible, and the water level was up to my waist, but I still had a great time. I was able to see sea turtles up close!

タイミングの問題か、砂浜は出ず、水位は腰下までありましたが、楽しめました。
ウミガメが近くで観れました！

I had a very enjoyable time! At the photo spots, I was able to hear various stories about Hawaii. Everything was in English, but I could somewhat understand it with a few words I caught here and there. The staff were very considerate, and I was able to fully enjoy nature for two hours! I think it's best to wear clothes that you don't mind getting dirty or even throwing away. My nose got completely black, haha!

とても楽しい時間を過ごせました！写真スポットではハワイのいろいろな話を聞くことができ、すべて英語ですが、所々聞き取れる単語でなんとなく理解ができました。
スタッフの方も気を使ってくださり、2時間たっぷり自然を満喫できました！
服装は汚れてもいい、捨ててもいいくらいのものがいいと思います。鼻の穴まで真っ黒になります笑

This was my second time parasailing in Hawaii. It was amazing! The height of 150 meters allows you to experience both fear and a sense of freedom. My 10-year-old daughter also had her first experience and was thrilled, saying it was the best. It was funny to see her going wild up there, where no one could hear her.

My husband is not good with heights, so he was completely focused the whole time, and when we came down, he looked pale.

There were some big waves that caused the front of the boat to slam against the water, and one of the men on board dislocated his shoulder, probably because he was holding the railing incorrectly, and had to give up. It was unfortunate.

The staff takes great photos (40 with an SD card), so I recommend enjoying the scenery and atmosphere rather than just taking your own pictures!

今回でハワイでは2回目のパラセーリングでした。
やっぱり最高！
150メートルの高さは、恐怖心と開放感の両方を味わえます。10歳の娘も初体験でしたが、最高だと喜んでいました。上空での誰にも聞こえないであろう発狂っぷりが面白かったです
主人は高いとこが苦手なので終始両手に全集中していて、降りてきた時には真っ青になってました


大きな波が何度かきて船の前方が海面に叩きつけることがあり、一緒に乗船していた男性は手すりの持ち方が悪かったせいか肩を脱臼してしまい、あえなく断念。。
かわいそうでした。

スタッフの方が撮ってくれる写真（SDカード付きで40）がとてもいいので、
自分で撮る写真よりも景色や雰囲気を楽しむことをおすすめします！

Just before, we switched to a small boat, and it was very rocky and challenging, but the Napali Coast and Whale Watch were amazing.

直前に小さい船に変更になり、揺れが激しくて大変でしたが、ナパリコースト及びWhale　Watchは最高でした

I participated with my 76-year-old mother, and we enjoyed activities like snorkeling and stand-up paddleboarding in the shallow waters.

When we joined, the water level was about knee-deep, but I think we were able to fully experience the atmosphere of the sandbar.

76歳の母と参加しましたが、
浅瀬でシュノーケリングやSUPなど楽しめました。

参加した時は海の高さは膝下ほどでしたが
サンドバーの雰囲気を充分体感できたと思います。

My first time going to Hawaii, They really tell you the history of Hawaii and show you all the cool farms and the BEST views of the ocean from different shores of the island. I have no regrets. Thank you so much

Everyone except for my husband and me were foreigners. If you don't set the audio guide to Japanese, you won't understand the explanations at all. However, since the boat rocks a lot on the way, it's better to have motion sickness medication. It was thrilling to transfer from the boat to the submarine. Moving in the middle of the ocean to the submarine was amazing. When a sea turtle swam close to the window, I was so impressed! It was great to encounter various fish as well.

私達夫婦以外全て外国人。説明も日本語オーディオガイドにセットしないと説明が全く分からず、しかし、行きの船がとても揺れるので酔い止めの薬は、あった方が良い。船から潜水艇を乗り移る時などは感動。海のど真ん中でから、潜水艇へと移動。ウミガメが、窓の近くに泳いで来てくれた時は、すご〜い❗️と感動。
色んな魚とも出会いよかったです。

If you go to Hawaii, you should definitely take a boat trip at least once. The view of Waikiki and Diamond Head from the sea is stunning, and this time, I was lucky enough to see whales as well. There are morning, afternoon, and evening courses available; I went in the morning both times, but next time I want to try the sunset cruise. The sea was calm, and I didn't experience any seasickness.

ハワイに行ったら必ず１度は乗船すべきです。海からのワイキキ、ダイヤモンドヘッドの景色、今回はラッキーなことに、クジラも見ることができました。午前、午後、夕方のコースがありますが、２度とも午前時間帯でしたが、次はサンセットクルーズも体験してみたいです。海はおだやかで船酔いすることもありませんでした。

I participated at the end of the year. I took motion sickness medication, but the boat was very slow, and it was tough until we returned to land. I couldn't see any whales, but later I heard that it's quite rare to see them around Oahu. Even if you do see them, they are said to be very far away. I think it would be better to participate in Maui or similar locations.

年末に参加しました。
酔い止めを飲んで参加しましたが、船がとてもゆっくりで陸に戻るまで辛かったです。
クジラも見る事ができなかったのですが、後で聞くとオアフで見られるのはかなり希なようですね。
見る事ができてもとても遠いとの事でした。
マウイ島などで参加されるのがよいと思います。

There isn't enough gratitude that I can express for the staff at the Rock-A Hula show! I came with a date, but my flight arrived in late, so my date was there, but I missed everything up to the dinner and show.

They were so accommodating ensuring my date received all the perks that were promised, and kept her company until I arrived. Then, when I got there, they even accepted my bags, and brought me food to ensure I ate enough before the show! Just great customer service.

Now the show... Just awesome. As a musician, everything was on point. The band, vocals, especially the Elvis act! Highly recommend and glad it was the first thing we did to get me back in good spirits after missing some of the action due to my flight.

Thanks staff! What a great experience!

The atmosphere is nice while listening to live Hawaiian music. Although the variety is limited, the portions are enormous. I think it's better for everyone to order different main dishes.

生ハワイバンドを聞きながら、雰囲気はいいです。
品数が少ないが、量が物凄く。メインは皆で違うものを頼んだ方がいいとおもいました。

Micki was a great tour guide! It was a beautiful experience with countless views. Handling a ATV is always a fun time. She also captured many pictures of us, made sure to get all the beautiful scenery all around us. I would absolutely recommend and cannot wait to come back!

My family loved it. We got to see dolphins turtles, and the view was amazi loved how they asked if they could dip the kids, and yes, give them all the way there was all around great experience would do it again. Kids loved it.

Everything that was listed happened, they came to pick us up on time, the equipment was in perfect shape, the small training for beginners was clear and well done.
I went with my 7-year-old daughter, and both guides where all the time paying special attention to us, to see that were ok, taking special care of us. I felt very well looked after and secure. They know what they do and are very professional.
The experience is really amazing, we saw so many fishes and a turtle.
We both loved it.

The adventure starts with kayaking out of the marina and up the river. The current is very slow, so you have plenty of photo opportunities and chances to enjoy the views. Wear a hat and sunscreen, you don't have shade for much of this portion.
Next is a hike through the rainforest. 95% of the hike is easy. There are a few river crossings, muddy inclines, and slippery/uneven footings. The hike is definitely not grueling, and I never felt tired. But if someone had mobility or balance issues, they would struggle at a few spots. I'd take my kids, but not my grandma.
Third is lunch at the waterfall. It's an uneven/rocky area, but our lunch was good. The views here are amazing. The pool of water is VERY cold. It's shallow enough to walk all the way under the waterfall.
You get about an hour at the waterfall. Then you hike and kayak back to where you started.
Our guide was Justice. He was very knowledgeable about the plants, wildlife, and history of the area. He had lots of interesting stories. The trip was enjoyable & he definitely added to the fun. Justice will tell you that "Hawaii is magic" and after this vacation we might agree.
When we eventually make it back to Kauai, visiting the waterfall will surely be on the list of activities.

The scenery at Sandbar was exceptionally beautiful. The barbecue featured authentic hamburgers made with charcoal-grilled patties, which were delicious. During snorkeling, I was fortunate to see a sea turtle up close, which is a rare encounter.

サンドバーの風景、綺麗さは格別でした。
バーベキューは炭火焼きで本格的なハンバーグを使用したハンバーガーだったので、美味しかったです。
シュノーケリングでは、出会うことが稀なウミガメを間近に見ることができて幸運です。

Traveling by boat was quite thrilling, and it was so rocky that it would have been dangerous if I hadn't taken motion sickness medication! When flying in the sky, I was nervous at first, but everywhere I looked was a breathtaking view, creating the best memories! By the way, we weren't asked whether we would land in the water; everyone was dropped equally!

船で移動している時もかなりスリル満点で、酔い止めを飲んでいなければ危なかったなというほど揺れました！
空を飛んでいる時も、初めはドキドキしたのですが、どこをみても絶景で最高の思い出ができました！
ちなみに水に着地するかどうかは聞かれず、全員平等に落とされていました！

Adam was prompt for pick up at hotel and at Diamond head. He was informative and gave good tips about the hike. Beautiful hike
