All Reviews for Top Places to Visit in Hawaii

First of all, all the participants were Japanese! After heading out to sea from the port by boat, you can go snorkeling from the sandbar. While snorkeling, you can swim with many fish while viewing coral. It's a matter of luck, but a sea turtle appeared right in front of me, and I was able to swim with it! I highly recommend it!

まず、参加者は全員日本人でした！
ボートで港から沖に出たあと、サンドバーから出てシュノーケリングができます
シュノーケリングではサンゴを見ながらたくさんの魚と泳げます
これは運が絡むところですが、目の前にウミガメが現れて一緒に泳げました！
オススメです！

We were a little apprehensive about getting a boat from the sandy beach, but it was all beautifully managed and we enjoyed a really good trip and a lovely sunset.
We were able to sit still and enjoy the drink and nibbles we had brought with us, while others enjoyed moving around onto the net to enjoy being really near the water. Even a little child under one year was there!
I would recommend this to anyone. A few steps through water and up into the boat led to a wonderful trip.

When we arrived, there was an explanation in Japanese, and they kindly went over the day's schedule and the meeting time for our return.

The guide for the actual experience was a local and spoke English. I couldn't understand much since I don't speak English at all, but they were friendly and had a great vibe, so I could somewhat grasp what they were saying! There were many breathtaking viewpoints, and we stopped each time for explanations and photo opportunities. They suggested poses, and we were able to take a lot of fun pictures. It was truly an enjoyable time! Being surrounded by nature was also very healing, making it an absolutely wonderful experience!

現地に着いたら日本語で説明があり、当日の予定や帰りの集合時間など丁寧に説明がありました。

実際の体験のガイドの方は現地の方で英語でした。英語は全く喋られないので分かりませんが、ノリが良くて優しい方達で、なんとなくいってることが伝わって来ました！！
絶景ポイントも沢山あり、その都度止まって解説と写真タイムがありました。ポーズを指定してくれて面白い写真もたくさん撮れて本当に楽しい時間でした！
大自然にも癒されて本当に最高の時間でした！

The location is amazing!
The buffet is fantastic!
The variety of food and the seasoning were really good.
Each family received a pineapple, and we couldn't finish it.
The dessert cakes and ice cream were delicious.

The show was impressive from our seats in the front center, and at the end, we got to interact with the show members, which was a memorable experience.

ロケーション最高！
ビュッフェ最高！
食事の種類の多さ、味付けがとっても良かった。
パイナップルも一家族に一個ついてきて、食べきれなかった。
デザートのケーキ、アイスクリームもおいしい。

ショーは前方中央の席で迫力満点、最後にはショーのメンバーとも触れ合えて思いでいっぱいでした。

I experienced the tour starting at 9:30.
I left the hotel in Waikiki at 7:30.
It takes about an hour to get to Kualoa.
Check-in was until 8:45, and the meeting time was at 9:15.
I stepped on the scale and signed something like a waiver.
There, I watched a video explanation.
I borrowed a helmet and a storage bag!
Around 9:30, they helped me choose a horse that suited me, and we set off. From this point, I couldn't get off the horse for two hours, which was really tough. I thought a one-hour course would be better.
I wanted to get off and take a break once.
My butt, inner thighs, and arms are sore. (laughs)
I got off the horse at 11:40.
Thank you, horse!

I used this for my honeymoon trip. Since it was my first trip to Hawaii, I wanted to see a hula dance, so I booked this plan, which had good reviews and high ratings, and also included a meal. Perhaps because it was a weekday, there was a monitor plan available, which I took advantage of.

The dinner was a buffet with a wide variety of dishes, and I thought the quality was good, especially since they carved the roast beef right in front of us. The welcome drink, Mai Tai, could be chosen between alcoholic and non-alcoholic options. During the meal, several people performed hula dances, creating a fun atmosphere.

The main rock hula show prohibited video recording, but photography without flash was allowed. I don't understand much English, but I still enjoyed it thanks to the music and dance. I would recommend this to beginners visiting Hawaii.

新婚旅行で利用させていただきました。
初めてのハワイ旅行だったので、フラダンスは見たいと思い、食事も出来る、口コミも良く評価の高かったこちらのプランを予約しました。
平日だったからか、モニタープランがあったのでそちらを利用。
夕食はビュッフェでしたが、種類も多く、ローストビーフ?は目の前で切っていただけるなど、クオリティは良かったと思います。
ウェルカムドリンクのマイタイはアルコールとノンアルコールから選べました。食事中も数名でフラダンスをしていて楽しい雰囲気で食事ができました。
メインのロックフラショーは動画撮影は禁止でしたが、カメラ撮影はフラッシュなしで可能。
英語はあまりわからないですが、それでも音楽とダンスなので十分に楽しめました。
ハワイビギナーな人にはオススメしたいです。

Our experience with Captain Robin, Kay, and Sydney was absolutely amazing! Captain Bruce Kaneohe Sandbar Cruise is a must! My husband and I loved everything about the experience…friendly, knowledgeable, hands on staff who truly gave each of the participants support and care. This was my first time to snorkel and Captain Robin stayed by my side until I was ready to snorkel without any assistance. There was time to paddle-board and float. It was a wonderful experience and exceeded our expectations.
Leah and Jeff from Indiana, Mahalo

The crew were THE BEST! They were all so lively, energetic, sweet, caring and considerate. One even individually assisted my Mom snorkeling and guided her til the end. I love this tour and will definitely be back 100%. Thank you guys for a wonderful time.

I participated with my 50-year-old aunt and 73-year-old aunt, and we had a great time! We made a reservation for three people, but you can also participate with two people by paying for three. Just make sure to inform them that you are a party of two. The waves were great, and we were able to ride three waves right away, so our experience ended up being about 30 minutes, but it was very satisfying. Thank you!

50歳（♀）と73歳の叔母での参加でしたが、とても楽しめました！！
こちらは3名からの予約となっていますが、2名参加でも3名分の料金を払えば体験できます。その際には2名参加である事を伝える必要あり。
波も良くて、すぐに３本の波に乗ることが出来た為、体験時間は30分ほどで終わってしまいましたが大満足の体験でした。ありがとうございます！

My first skydiving experience became the best memory!

Since I participated alone, I requested a tour with transportation. When I arrived at the designated location at 6:50 AM, the guide came to pick me up. It was a coincidence, but the staff spoke Japanese, and we had a fun conversation on the way.

Upon arrival, I checked in using an iPad. Everything was in English, but it mainly covered the content that if you get injured, it's your own responsibility. If you don't understand, the staff can explain the general content in Japanese.

It seems that there is a set order for jumping, so I waited until I was called. Whether you can jump also greatly depends on the weather that day; if there are too many clouds, you can't jump, and there's a possibility of cancellation. They monitor the timing until a gap in the clouds appears. While waiting, the staff who spoke Japanese taught me the proper form for jumping and was very considerate.

When it was time to prepare for the jump, I greeted my instructor! They greeted me in broken Japanese! I responded in broken English! Haha. The instructor also provided a lecture on the form after jumping, giving instructions in Japanese!

I boarded the Cessna, and off we went into the sky! Once the first diver jumped, the others followed quickly, leaving no time to feel scared, and instead, it was just pure enjoyment! It felt like the free fall lasted longer than the one minute they mentioned. After that, the parachute opened, and we descended while spinning! This might depend on the instructor, but I was having so much fun spinning that they kept doing it! I think if I had been scared, they would have let me descend more gently.

Afterward, I received something like a skydiving certification. They also gave me a paper to write my impressions and an envelope, so I wrote a message in Japanese and put a tip for the instructor in the envelope before dropping it in the box.

I had also requested transportation back, so I was able to leave right after finishing. (Depending on the jump order, there might be some waiting?) On the way back, the local staff spoke English, and since I’m not fluent, I took a nap in the car. We arrived at the first pickup location right on time! And then, we parted ways.

Overall, I was very satisfied with the experience! I always wanted to try skydiving at least once in my life, and it was wonderful to do it against the backdrop of Hawaii's sky and sea! I want to do it again!

初のスカイダイビングで最高の思い出になりました！

1人で参加だったので、送迎付きのツアーを頼みました。
朝6:50に指定の場所に行くとガイドさんが迎えに来てくれてて、たまたまだったのか日本語が話せるスタッフさんで道中も色んな話をしながら楽しく向かえました。

到着したらiPadでチェックイン。
全て英語でしたが、だいたい怪我とかしても自己責任だよっていう内容。
分からなかったらスタッフさんが日本語で大まかな内容教えてくれます。

飛ぶ順番が決まっているみたいで、呼ばれるまでは待機。あと飛べるかどうかもその日の天気に大きく左右されるみたいで雲が多いと飛べないらしく最悪中止になる可能性もあるそうです。雲間が現れるまでタイミングをみます。
待ってる間に日本語が話せるスタッフさんが飛ぶ時のフォームを教えてくれて、何から何まで気を使ってくれました。

そろそろ飛ぶ準備ってなって担当のインストラクターさんとご挨拶！カタコトの日本語で挨拶してくれました！こちらもカタコトの英語で挨拶！笑
インストラクターさんからも飛んだあとのフォームのレクチャーを受けます。指示出しは日本語でしてくれました！

セスナに搭乗し、いざ空へ！
最初のダイバーが飛んだらそれに続いてポンポン飛んでいったので、怖いと思う暇もなく飛び降りて、逆に楽しさしかありませんでした！
1分くらいのフリーフォールらしいですが体感はもっと長かった気がしました。
そこからパラシュートが、開いてくるくる回りながら降下！これはインストラクターさんによるかもですが、くるくる回るの楽しい〜！って言ってたらめっちゃしてくれました笑
たぶん怖がってたらゆーたり降りてくれると思います笑

終わったらスカイダイビングの認定証みたいなのをくれます。そして、感想を書く用紙と封筒をくれるので日本語でメッセージを書きインストラクターさんへのチップを封筒に入れて、ボックスへ投函。

私は帰りの送迎も頼んでいたので、ちょうど終わったタイミングで、乗れることになりました。
(飛ぶ順番によっては待つかも？)
帰りは現地スタッフの方だったので、話されるのは英語。私は流暢に英語は喋れないので車の中で仮眠してました。
予定時間通りに最初のピックアップ場所に到着！そして、そのまま解散です。

内容としてはとても満足でした！
人生で一度はスカイダイビングをしてみたいと思っていて、ハワイの空と海をバックにできて素晴らしかったです！
またやりたいと思いました！

The tour guide ( Dexter) from Polynesian Adventure Tour picked us up from the hotel on time. Very knowledgeable and very informative . He knows all the places and history of the Big Islands (Hilo). Patiently waiting for us to finish the tour. We really had a great time. We will use the Polynesian Adventure Group again.

This was my second time parasailing in Hawaii. This time, the wind was strong, and the boat was quite rocky. I think most of the other participants were newlyweds, but one of them got seasick and vomited. I also have a tendency to get motion sickness, so I took some anti-nausea medication before participating, and I didn't feel seasick at all. Anti-nausea medication is a must!

ハワイでのパラセイリングは2回目になります。
今回は風が強くて、船もかなり揺れ、私たち親子以外の参加の方々は、ほとんど新婚さんだったとおもいますが、どちらか片方が船酔いされて嘔吐されていました。私もとても酔いやすい体質なので、酔い止めを飲んで参加したので、全く船酔いしなかったです。酔い止め必須です！

The whole crew were so kind and took care of everyone immediately. They checked in on everyone when we were all in the ocean. I went during a solo trip and it was definitely a highlight! Also drank 2 delicious mai tais on the way back. Saw two big turtles and the most beautiful fish all around! Defs book this whether solo or with your own crew!

At first, I was worried about the weather because the mountain in front was hidden by clouds, but Mauna Kea was clear above the clouds, and it was a beautiful day! I enjoyed the best sunset and a lovely starry sky!

Our guide was an American named Tat, who occasionally spoke Japanese. It seemed he was working with another guide from the same tour company, who was also American but spoke Japanese fluently.

They prepared two telescopes for us, allowing us to observe Jupiter and Saturn. Then, they took a picture of the Milky Way and shared the photos with us via AirDrop. It was a wonderful experience with a great team!

初めは手前の山が雲に隠れていたので天気を心配していましたが、マウナケアは雲の上で晴れていました、快晴でした！最高のサンセットと、素敵な星空を堪能できました！
タットさんというアメリカの方がガイドさんでしたが、日本語も時折り話してくれます。同じツアー会社の方と一緒にツアーをされているようで、そちらのガイドさんはアメリカの方ですが日本語バリバリでした。
２人で望遠鏡を２つ用意してくれて、木星と土星をそれぞれ観賞できました。それから天の川の写真を撮ってくれてエアドロップで写真をいただきました。とても良いコンビで素敵なツアーを体験しました！

Just the perfect amount of time at the sandbar. There’s a platform if you don’t want to be in the water. There’s canoes and stand up paddle boards.
It was a fun experience over all.
Also included was snorkeling.

I couldn't book an hour of horseback riding, so I arranged for two hours instead. I recommend making arrangements early. In the end, two hours of riding was the right choice. It felt like the time flew by, and I found it a bit unsatisfying. It seems that the horse's temperament can affect the pace, sometimes being slow or well-behaved. I was a bit flustered when the horse trotted uphill, but it walks slowly. It might not be enough for those who are experienced riders. Be prepared for some soreness afterward.

1時間乗馬が取れなくて2時間乗馬を手配。早めに手配されることをお勧めします。
結果2時間乗馬で正解でした。あっという間の2時間で物足りなさを感じました。馬の性格？などで遅かったり行儀がよかったりがあるようです。登坂で小走りされたときは少し慌てましたが、ゆっくりと歩きます。乗り慣れている人には物足らないかも。降りた後はお尻が痛くなるので覚悟が必要。

I joined a tour because I wanted to enjoy Hawaii's nature while riding a horse by myself. The two-hour tour went by in no time, and I had a lot of fun.

**Transportation**
Since I was traveling alone, I requested the tour's transportation service. The schedule was set, so moving around was easy. It took about 50 minutes from Honolulu one way. There are no breaks along the way, so it's best to use the restroom beforehand.

**Check-in**
When I arrived, I was told to wait on a bench, and then a local staff member who spoke Japanese came over to explain things and handed out the tour papers. The area isn’t very large, so I don’t think you’ll get lost. If you're going horseback riding, you can't bring bags that go over your shoulder, so I stored my belongings in a locker for $5 a day. A waist pouch type is okay during the ride. They lend you a small bag specifically for horseback riding, so I brought my smartphone and water.

**Two-Hour Horseback Riding Tour**
After checking in for horseback riding, I weighed in and signed a waiver. Then, I received instructions via video. The staff asked which language I preferred, so I chose Japanese! Finally, it was time to ride. The horses looked quite big up close! I was a bit worried about being able to control them, but since they are well-trained, they moved forward when I wanted them to and stopped when I wanted them to, so I hardly had to do anything. The horses remember the path, so I just had to follow along. The horse at the front kept stopping and not listening, so the guide was urging it along.

The weather was a bit bad that day, but when the clouds cleared, I could see blue skies and the scenery from the Jurassic Park movie, which was great! The guide was a local and didn’t seem to speak Japanese, but they used simple Japanese for instructions. When the horse at the front stopped and wouldn’t move, they said, “Kick your feet!” Since everyone in the group was Japanese, there wasn’t much explanation from the guide about the locations, and we all just enjoyed the scenery at a leisurely pace.

**Lunch & Shopping**
The two-hour tour ended around 11:30. The bus gathering time was at 12:45, so I had a little time to relax. The shop was small, so there weren’t many menu items, but they sold hot dogs and snacks. There were also souvenirs that could only be found in Croatia, which was fun to look at.

**Conclusion**
We got back on the bus, which took us back to the meeting point from the morning. We disbanded at 13:50. I might have felt it was a bit short if it had only been one hour, so I’m glad I chose the two-hour tour. Since we moved in a group of about five people, if the horse at the front stops, we can’t move forward, so if there are many stops, you might think, “It stops a lot.” But I guess that’s just how the horses feel, so it can’t be helped! Overall, I had a great time on this horseback riding tour, which is something you can’t easily do in Japan! The horses were smart and adorable! ♡

1人で馬に乗ってハワイの自然を満喫したいと思ってツアーに参加しました。
2時間のツアーでしたがあっという間でとても楽しめました

送迎
一人旅だったので、ツアーの送迎付きを頼みました。時間も決められているので移動は楽でした。
ホノルルから片道50分くらい。途中休憩は無いのでトイレは済ませてた方がいいです。

受付
着いたら一旦ベンチにかけといてーと言われ待ってたら「日本語での説明がいる方はこちらへ〜」と日本語が話せる現地スタッフが説明をしてくれて参加ツアーの紙を配ってくれました。敷地内はそれほど広くはないので、迷うことはないと思います。
乗馬をする場合は肩掛けするバックなどは持っていけないので、ロッカーに荷物を預けました。1日5ドル。腰にまけるポシェットタイプなら乗馬中もOK。乗馬専用の小さい袋を貸してくれるのでスマホや水は持っていきました。

2時間乗馬ツアー
乗馬の受付を済ませて、体重測定&誓約書？に署名。その後ビデオで乗馬の説明を受けます。どの言語がいい？ってスタッフさんが聞いてくれるので日本語を選択！いよいよ乗馬です。
まじかで見る馬はけっこう大きかったです！
ちゃんと操作できるかなーと、思ってたのですがきちんと訓練を受けているので前が進んだら進むし止まったら止まってくれるのでほぼ操作はいりませんでした笑
道も馬が覚えているので、ついて行くだけでOK
先頭の人の馬が、ちょくちょく止まって言うことをきいていなかったのでガイドさんに急かされてました笑

この日は天気がちょっと悪かったのですが、雲が切れたら青空もみえてジュラシックパークの映画でみた景色が見れて良かったです！
ガイドさんは現地の方だったので、日本語は喋れないみたいでしたが、指示する上で簡単な日本語は話してました。先頭の馬が止まって動かなくなったから「足蹴ってー」って指示出ししてました。
この日は全員日本人だったので特にガイドさんから場所などの解説はなくみんなゆったり景色を眺めながら歩くって感じでした。

ランチ&ショッピング
2時間ツアーが終わったのが11:30頃。バスの集合時間が12:45なので少しゆっくりでします。
お店が小さいので、あまりメニューはありませんがホットドッグやスナックとか売ってました。
お土産もクロアチアランチにしかない物もあって見ていて楽しかったです。

おわりに
バスに乗り込み、朝集合した場所まで送ってくれます。13:50解散。
1時間だけだと物足りなかったかもなので2時間ツアーにして良かったです。
5人くらいのグループで進むので、先頭が止まっちゃうと進めなくなっちゃうので止まる回数が多くなっちゃうと「よく止まるなー」って思っちゃうかもです馬の気分もあるとも思うのでそこは仕方がないかもですが笑
でも、日本ではなかなかできない乗馬ツアーですごく楽しめました！馬も賢く可愛かったです♡

I had a truly valuable experience! The instructor was very kind and guided us with safety in mind. Although the water was cold since we started at 5 AM, I had reserved a wetsuit in advance, so I was fine during the long snorkeling session. On the day of participation, there was little wind, and I was able to see four sea turtles up close! Additionally, I was able to see many marine creatures that can only be found in Hanauma Bay, which was truly moving.

If I were to mention one point of caution, those with weak vestibular systems may be more prone to seasickness. I recommend taking a strong anti-nausea medication beforehand! I personally have a weak constitution and took Dramamine before participating, but I still experienced significant seasickness.

Overall, it was an unforgettable experience that I will cherish for a lifetime. Thank you very much to the instructors!

とても貴重な体験ができました！
インストラクターさんはとても優しく、安全に配慮しながら案内をしてくださいました。
朝5時からの参加で水は冷たかったのですが、スイムスーツを事前に予約し、お借りしたので、長時間のシュノーケリングでも大丈夫でした。
参加日当日は風が少なく、ウミガメを4匹も間近で見ることができました！その他にも、ハナウマ湾でしか見ることのできない海の生物をたくさん見ることができて、本当に感動しました。
1点のみ注意点を挙げるとするならば、三半規管の弱い方は波酔いの可能性が高いです。強めの酔い止めをあらかじめ飲んでおくことをオススメします！！私は元々弱い方で、トラベ◯ミンを飲んでから参加しましたがガッツリ波酔いしました。
総合的には一生の思い出に残る経験ができました。インストラクターの方々、本当にありがとうございました。

It was a very enjoyable and fulfilling tour! The staff, who are fluent in both English and Japanese, provided thorough guidance. I recommend checking the dates and times for low tide before making a reservation. (As for the weather on the day, we can only leave it to luck...) On the day of the activities, you can freely choose from options like SUP, inflatable rings, and snorkeling, so I think even those without much stamina can enjoy it. If you're going to Waikiki, definitely go for it! Thank you for a wonderful experience.

とても楽しく充実したツアーでした！
英語・日本語の出来るスタッフの方が、丁寧に案内をしてくださいます。
予約される際には、干潮になる日にちや時間帯を調べてから、日程を検討されることをおすすめします。
(当日の天気については、運を天に任せるしかないのですが…)
当日のアクティビティについては、SUPや浮き輪、シュノーケリング等から自由に選べるので、体力のない方でも楽しめると思います。
ワイキキに行かれる方はぜひ！
素晴らしい体験をありがとうございました。

After hiking this trail years ago and taking the van trip this time (2023), I would never choose another way to go other than the van ride. Pleasant driver and informative. Felt safe.

On the last day of our family trip to Hawaii, we decided to participate in this activity to create some memories. I had been on a catamaran a few times in Hawaii (with another company), but it was the first time for my husband and our 2-year-old daughter.

There aren't many activities available for children, so the fact that our daughter could join us for free was a deciding factor.

The meeting point was inside the Outrigger Reef. It was beautifully renovated, and the Holokai counter was easy to find. We got a little lost with the map provided, but the hotel staff kindly helped us.

From there, we walked to the boarding area near Halekulani.

Unfortunately, it was cloudy on the day of our trip, but just as the sun was setting, a gap in the clouds appeared, creating a truly wonderful memory.

Here are a few concerns that led to a four-star rating:

【Concerns】
- When we boarded, we were the only Japanese among about 30 people. It was fun to experience the international atmosphere, but the crew members did not speak Japanese, so those who are concerned about this should take note.

- The boat allows drinking. We chose not to drink, but the first drink is included at no extra charge! The international guests were drinking a lot and having a great time. Families with children or those who are not comfortable with drinking should be cautious.

- My husband and daughter got seasick. Depending on the weather, the waves were quite high and the boat rocked a bit. If you're prone to motion sickness, taking medication is a must! Also, please be aware that the ride lasts about an hour and a half.

Overall, it was a very enjoyable experience, and we could feel the fun atmosphere from everyone on board. I think it would be good to compare prices as catamaran rates vary by company.

ハワイへの家族旅行最終日に、思い出になればと思い参加を決めました。私はハワイで何度かカタマラン（別の会社主催の方）に乗ったことがありましたが、夫と2歳の娘は初めてでした。
娘が参加できるアクティビティがなかなかないので、子どもは料金がかからず一緒に楽しめることも決め手になりました。

集合場所はアウトリガーリーフ内。綺麗にリニューアルされており、ホロカイのカウンターもわかりやすかったです。案内の地図で少し迷いましたが、ホテルの方が丁寧に教えてくれました。

そこからハレクラニ横まで徒歩で移動して乗船します。

当日はあいにく曇りでしたが、日が沈む瞬間は雲の間ができ、すごく素敵な思い出となりました。

以下、少し懸念される点がありましたので星4つになります。

【懸念点】
・私達が乗船した際は、30人ほどのうち日本人は私達だけでした。海外の雰囲気を味わえて楽しかったですが、乗務員さんも日本語は話せない方なので気にする方はぜひ。

・飲酒可能な船です。私たちはお酒がのめないので選びませんでしたが、一杯目は追加料金なくお酒を楽しめます！海外の皆さんはたくさん飲んで大変盛り上がっていました。
子連れやお酒のノリが苦手な方は、注意が必要かもしれません。

・夫、娘は船酔いしてしまいました。天候にもよるかと思いますが、沖合は割と波も高く揺れました。苦手な方は酔い止め必須です！また、1時間半ほど乗るのでお気をつけください。


全体として非常に楽しく、海外の雰囲気を一緒に乗船されたみなさんからも感じられて、楽しいひとときとなりました！カタマラン船は料金も各社違うのでぜひ参考に比較いただくとよいかと思います。

The kayak was stable, and I got used to paddling as I went along. The course goes from Keauhou Bay to the underwater cave in the next cove. We headed out far enough that the sea turned a deep blue. We made several stops along the way for breaks and hydration. The water was calm with no waves, and dolphins were jumping around. According to the guide, the baby dolphins were practicing their jumps. I felt lucky. Due to the wind, snorkeling was limited to about 20 minutes in Keauhou Bay, and I was a bit disappointed as I was expecting to see many more tropical fish. In Big Island, where Japanese is hardly spoken, it was a relief to have conversations in Japanese with our guide, Noni. I highly recommend participating in this experience.

カヤックは安定感があり漕ぐほどに慣れてきました。ケアホウ湾を出て次の入江にある海中洞窟までがコースです。海が濃い青に変わるくらい沖に出ます。途中何度か休憩と水分補給をしながら進みます。波もなく穏やかでイルカが飛び跳ねていました。ガイドによれば子イルカがジャンプの練習をしているとのこと。ラッキーでした。シュノーケリングは風のためケアホウ湾の中で20分ほどで、もっと沢山の南の海のお魚達を期待していたので少し残念でした。日本語が殆ど通じないビッグアイランドでガイドのノニさんと日本語での会話はそれだけでほっとしました。是非参加されることをお勧めします。

Despite the weak yen... the quality was so good that I thought it was cheap! With this content at this price, it's the best!
It was my first time in Hawaii, and I was very satisfied.
It all started with receiving a lei around my neck, and I enjoyed the food while watching the dances and songs✨. Finally, I got to enjoy a fantastic show right in front of the stage, almost within reach✨.
I struggled with English and participated alone, but I had a great time. I think I could have enjoyed it 1.5 times more if I understood English better!
I want to study English a bit more and participate again.

円安ですが…安い！！っと思うくらいのクオリティでした！この内容でこの価格！最高です
初めてのハワイでしたが大満足です
まずレイを首にかけてもらうところから始まり、踊りや歌を楽しみながらお料理を✨そして最後に手が届きそうなほどステージの真ん前から本格的なショーを堪能✨
英語が苦手&１人での参加でしたが、十分楽しめました英語がもっと分かればさらに1.5倍は楽しめたと思います！
英語もう少し勉強してまた参加したいです

I participated alone as the only Japanese person, and there were no other Japanese participants that day. It was a tour with two vans, and my guide in my van only spoke English. However, the guide in the other van was fluent in Japanese, so they kindly took the time to explain the stars to me one-on-one, paying attention to the details, which was very thoughtful. The guide's talk in the van was in English, but they clearly explained the efforts of the local Hawaiians to preserve Hawaiian culture and the importance of conveying such information to tourists. I was grateful to hear valuable stories from a local person. Thank you for a wonderful experience.

日本人一人での参加で、他の参加者にも日本人はいない日でしたが、バン二台でのツアーで、私の車のガイドさんは英語しか話せなかったのですが、もう一つの車のガイドさんが日本語ペラペラだからと、わざわざそちらの方がマンツーマンで星の説明をしてくださり、細かいことも気にかけてくださり、とても親切でした。車内でのガイドさんの話も、英語でしたが、地元のハワイアンの人々がハワイアン文化を守るためにしていることや、そういった内容も観光客に伝える必要性もわかりやすく話してくれて、貴重な現地の方のお話が聞けてありがたかったです。素晴らしい体験をありがとうございました。

I was a bit unsure about swimming since it was my first time snorkeling, but I was able to learn without any problems. There was a large moray eel, and the underwater world was a wonderful experience. I was so moved and swam with enthusiasm, and just when I started to feel a bit tired, the tour wrapped up nicely. I think even those without much stamina can enjoy it. The guide was kind and relaxed, not pushing us to be overly energetic, which made for a pleasant experience. Thank you very much.

初めてのシュノーケリングで、泳ぎもそんなに自信ない感じでしたが、問題なく習得できました。大きなウツボもいて、初めての海の中の世界は素晴らしい体験でした。感動して夢中で泳いで、少し疲れてきたかな？と気づいたころに丁度一周がおわり、そんなに体力ない方でも楽しめると思います。ガイドさんも、無理にテンション上げさせる感じでなく、親切でリラックスした感じの方で気持ちよく過ごせました。ありがとうございました。

My 9-year-old grandson was very satisfied; it was an emotional experience that you can only understand by seeing it with your own eyes, like a scene from a movie.

The dirt at UTA is the best, but wearing white pants is a no-go. Disposable towels and wet wipes are essential.

There are local sales, but it's better to have a 100-yen store raincoat for rain protection (laughs).

9歳の孫も大満足、映画の1シーンだったり自分の目で見なくては、分からない感激しました。

UTA 土ほこりは、最高で長ズボン、白色は禁物
処分出来るタオル、ウエットティッシュは必須です。

現地販売が有りますが、雨対策に100均カッパあった方が良いですね　(苦笑)

We were supposed to gather at 7:30, but boarding and departure were around 8:00. Kanako, the Japanese staff member, was very attentive and made us feel at ease throughout the tour. The wind was strong, so our snorkeling time at Molokini Island was planned for one hour, but we wrapped it up in about 30 minutes and moved to the next point at Coral Gardens. We encountered a pod of dolphins around Molokini Island, which was amazing! Coral Gardens had more coral and fish than I imagined, and we even saw a sea turtle. The breakfast service and lunch (hamburger) were delicious as well.

７時半集合でしたが、乗船&出港は８時頃だったでしょうか。
日本人スタッフのカナさんが、とてもきめ細やかに声をかけてくれて終始安心してツアーに参加できました。
風が強くてモロキニ島ではシュノーケル１時間の予定だったそうですが、３０分程度で切り上げて次のコーラルガーデンのポイントへ移動。
モロキニ島周辺でイルカの群れに遭遇して感動(^_^)
コーラルガーデンは想像以上に珊瑚やお魚が多くて、ウミガメにも逢えました。
朝食サービス、昼食のランチ（ハンバーガー）も美味しかったです。

The six if us had a great time with Drew who kept us entertained while ensuring we understood the historical and cultural importance of many of the sites we visited. The dad jokes were appreciated over the course of the day travelling from Kona to Hilo and points in-between. The consensus highlight was the swim in the waterfall pool. Even the weather cooperated. Fabulous day! Mahalo Drew!

The only con about this activity is I did find it on the expensive end. The total time spent up in the sky is quite short - about 5 min.

The staff were friendly and the activity itself was enjoyable.

I participated because I wanted to see the fire dance and hula dance. The theater was very well constructed. Dancers and a famous local singer appeared, and it was very exciting from the start. Around the middle, impersonators of Elvis and Michael Jackson came out, and they danced to their famous songs with the dancers, which was really thrilling! The show itself lasts about an hour and a half, so it might be a good idea to use the restroom beforehand. I definitely want to see it again when I go to Hawaii!

ファイヤーダンスとフラダンスが見たくて参加しました。劇場もすごくしっかりとした作りでした。ダンサーと地元の有名な歌手？が登場し、最初からとても盛り上がりました。中盤くらいから、エルビスやマイケル・ジャクソンのそっくりさんが登場し、それぞれの有名な曲に合わせてダンサーさんと踊っててとても盛り上がれました！！劇場自体1時間半くらいあるので、最初に御手洗を済ませた方がいいかもしれません。またハワイに行ったら是非見に行きたいです！
