Hawaii
The theater is more compact than those in Las Vegas, and the distance to the performers is very close. As a result, I had a powerful and moving experience.
ラスベガスの劇場よりも劇場がコンパクトで演者との距離が非常に近いです
そのため大迫力で感動的な体験ができました
I was thrilled to see a pod of dolphins that I thought I wouldn't be able to see! My husband and child had a great time sailing, but unfortunately, I forgot to take my motion sickness medication and ended up feeling seasick. Up until that point, everything was wonderful!
見れないと思ってたいたイルカの群れが見れて最高でした!
夫と子供は気持ちよくいいセーリングでしたが、妻は酔い止めの服用を忘れてしまい船酔いしてしまったのが残念でしたが、それまではよかったです!
If you get seasick, motion sickness medication is a must!
船酔いする方は酔い止め必須!
We were very impressed with how fun the river cruise and nature trail to the Fern Grotto
Must do for trips to Kauai
Great place. My teens greatly enjoyed the experience and Grace was fantastic.
I've always thought that I wanted to try skydiving at least once in my life, but I was scared. In the end, I went for it and it was so much fun!!! Just thinking about the moment I jumped still makes me shiver, but once I was falling, it was enjoyable, and I got to see so many beautiful views. Also, I feel like I became stronger from the experience, haha. I don't think I'll regret jumping! It's definitely a memory to cherish from Hawaii ♡
人生で1回はスカイダイビングしてみたいけど怖い、とずっと思っていましたが、結局飛んでめっちゃ楽しかったです!!!
降りる瞬間のことは今思い出しただけでも震えますが、落ちてからは楽しくて、景色もいっぱい見れました。あとなんか、飛んだことで強くなった気がします笑 飛んで後悔はないと思います!ハワイの思い出にぜひ♡
The sunset and starry sky were amazing, and the scenery became one of my best memories of the Big Island of Hawaii! Also, Shoutaro's guidance was wonderful and kind, making me feel very comfortable from start to finish. Thank you very much. I would like to join the sunrise tour next time!
サンセット、星空は最高で、景色は素晴らしくハワイ島の最高の思い出になりました!そして、しょうたろうさんのガイドが素晴らしく親切で、はじめから終わりまでとても安心して参加できました。
ありがとうございました。またいつか、次はサンライズツアーに参加したいです。
The down jacket, pants, and gloves that they lend are clean, so I feel安心 (at ease)!
貸してくれるダウンジャケット、パンツ、手袋も綺麗なので、安心です!
All round positive experience, on the boat and lanai
I participated in the sunset and stargazing tour at the summit of Mauna Kea. The view of the observatory and the sunset from the snow-covered summit was truly magnificent, and I couldn't help but gasp in awe. The sky conditions were excellent, allowing us to see not only the winter constellations but also the winter Milky Way clearly, and I was genuinely amazed by the sheer number of stars filling the sky.
The guide communicated diligently while incorporating some Japanese, and I appreciated their warm attitude. They provided regular announcements for restroom breaks and checked on our well-being, showing great attention to detail, which made the overall hospitality outstanding.
It gets quite cold at the summit, so I was glad I brought disposable hand warmers. The flow of the tour and the items to bring were as explained in the pre-tour information, which made me feel secure about participating. I highly recommend this tour.
マウナケア山頂の夕陽&星空観測ツアーに参加しました。
雪が残る山頂から眺める天文台と夕日の景色が本当に素晴らしく、思わず息をのみました。空の状態も良く冬の星座はもちろん、冬の天の川までくっきりと見え、空一面の星の数に心から驚かされました。
ガイドさんは日本語をまじえながら一生懸命コミュニケーションを取ってくれ、その姿勢がとても温かく嬉しかったです。定期的なトイレ休憩の案内や体調確認など、細やかな気遣いが行き届いており、全体を通してホスピタリティは抜群だと感じました。
山頂はかなり冷え込むので、使い捨てカイロを持参して良かったです。ツアーの流れや持ち物などは事前案内の説明どおりで、安心して参加できました。このツアーはおすすめします。
Gloves and a lightweight down jacket are convenient to have.
手袋、薄手のダウンジャケットはあると便利
This time, I took my family on a stargazing tour. The weather was bad with strong winds predicted, but we were able to have the tour safely, which was a relief. You can see a night sky here that you absolutely cannot experience in Japan. There are so many stars that it's hard to identify the constellations. I highly recommend this experience.
The meals were also tastier than before.
Points of concern:
It seemed like the duration of the stargazing experience was shorter than last time. I wish we had a bit more time. Did the location for the experience change to a slightly lower spot?
今回は家族を連れての星空ツアーでした。下の天気が悪く、強風の予測でしたが無事ツアーができホットしています。日本では絶対に体験できない星空を見ることができます。星が多すぎて星座が確認できません。ぜひ体験してください。
食事も以前よりおいしくなっていました。
気になった点
前回の星空体験より時間が短くなったように思えます。もう少し時間が有ったら良かったとおもいます。体験する場所も少し低くなったのですか?
This time, I downloaded Star Walk 2. I recommend it for those participating in the English tour.
今回はStar Walk2をダウンロードしていきました。英語ツアーに参加される方にお勧めします。
I felt at ease driving while being guided. The detailed explanations about the Dole Plantation and North Shore made for a very enjoyable day!
ガイドしながら運転も安心できました。Doleプランテーションやノースショアも詳しく説明してくれてとても楽しい一日になりました!
Not only with Japanese people but also with people from various countries, I experienced a sense of being abroad as they skillfully used both English and Japanese.
日本人だけでなく色々な国の人たちと一緒になり、英語と日本語を巧みに使ってくれて海外にいる感じを味わいました。
Thank you very much for participating in our Royal Star bus tour with your spouse. We are very pleased to hear that you enjoyed the North Shore and the Dole Plantation. It's great that you were able to make friends with customers from other countries as well. We also appreciate your very positive review. We look forward to seeing you again in Hawaii next time.
この度は私共のロイヤルスターのバスツアーにご夫婦で参加して頂き誠にありがとうございました。ノースショアそして、ドールプランテーションも楽しんで頂いたようで大変嬉しく思っております。他の国のお客様とも仲良くなれて良かったですね。大変ポジティブな口コミも有難う御座います。次回もハワイでお待ちしております。
This time, I went to Dole and Haleiwa for the first time. Since I didn't have a rental car, I signed up for a tour with Japanese language support.
Our driver, Cindy, first took us to take pictures at the King Kamehameha statue and provided various explanations. Next, we rode the train at Dole, which ran comfortably through the plantation. The pineapple soft serve was exquisite. Finally, we went to Haleiwa. When I told the driver that I wanted to eat garlic shrimp, she kindly guided us to a restaurant and even ordered for us since we couldn't speak English. It was such a relief, and we were able to fully enjoy and have fun. After eating, we enjoyed shopping and looking at the beautiful ocean, which was a lot of fun.
Next time, I would like to take a bit more time to enjoy it. Thank you very much.
As souvenirs, I also received pineapple banana cake, water, and mint candies.
今回、初めてドールとハレイワに行きました。レンタカーがないので、日本語サポート付きのツアーで申し込みしました。
Cindyさんというドライバーの方で、まずカメハメハ像で写真を撮って頂き、色々説明もしてくれました。次にドールで汽車にのりプランステーションの中を気持ちよく走りました。パイナップルソフトクリームが絶品でした。最後は、ハレイワに行きました。ガーリックシュリンプを食べたいとドライバーさんに伝えるとお店を案内してくれて、英語が話せない私達に代わり注文をしてくれたり、とても親切だったので本当に安心して堪能して、楽しむ事が出来ました。食べた後は、ショッピングしたり綺麗な海をみたり楽しかったです。
次回は、もう少し時間をかけて楽しみたいと思います。
ありがとうございました。
お土産に、パイナップルバナナケーキやお水やミントの飴も頂きました。
If you don't speak English, I recommend opting for Japanese support. Also, for those visiting Haleiwa for the first time, it's advisable to go early to avoid the crowds and be able to return comfortab
英語が話せない方は、日本語サポート付きをお勧めします。あと、初めてハレイワの方面に行く方は、早い時間の方が混む前に行く事が出来、帰ってくる事が出来るのでおすすめです。
Thank you very much for participating in our Royal Star bus tour with your family. We are very pleased to hear that you enjoyed the North Shore and Dole Plantation with the support of our Japanese-speaking staff. The soft serve ice cream at Dole Plantation is truly delicious, isn't it? We also appreciate your positive review and the photos. We look forward to seeing you again in Hawaii next time.
この度は私共のロイヤルスターのバスツアーにご家族で参加して頂き誠にありがとうございました。日本語のサポートにてノースショアそして、ドールプランテーションも楽しんで頂いたようで大変嬉しく思っております。ドールプランテーションでのソフトクリーム本当に美味しいですよね。ポジティブな口コミとお写真も有難う御座います。次回もハワイでお待ちしております。
Enjoyable relaxing and fun journey to the beautiful grotto 🌼
It was a group of 10:30, but it seems we couldn't see the previous group. 😭
When we went out to sea, there were three parent whales and their baby, and they looked beautiful like in the pictures. Just as we were about to head back, the captain quickly turned around because the whales became more active. Thanks to that, we were able to see the baby whale jump multiple times. 🐳 Thank you, Captain! 🧑✈️ But since it was a baby, it looked more like the jumps of dolphins. 🤭
The view of Diamond Head from Waikiki by the sea is stunning.
Since it was a windy day in February, the boat rocked quite a bit. If you're sensitive to motion sickness, I recommend taking some medication beforehand. Also, while the sun is strong, there are times when the wind feels cold. I think having a long-sleeved cover-up would be a good idea.
1030のグループでしたが、その前のグループは見れなかったようです😭
沖に出ると三頭の親子がいて、写真のように見えました。
帰りかけた時に、クジラの動きが活発になったと、キャプテンが機転をきかして戻ってくれました。お陰でベビークジラのジャンプが何回も見れました🐳
ありがとう、キャプテン🧑✈️
でもベビーなので、イルカ🐬のジャンプのようでした🤭
海側からのワイキキからダイヤモンドヘッドの眺めは見事です。
2月で風の強い日だったので、かなり揺れました。揺れに弱い方は酔い止めを飲んでおくのをお勧めします。
また、陽射しは強いですが、風が寒いと感じる時も。長袖の羽織るものがあると良いと思います。
You can experience it if you can give simple instructions to the horse. It was a very valuable experience. However, in the sample photos of the experience, it looks like you could go deeper, but in reality, you only go around a large rock.
簡単な馬への指示ができれば体験可能です。
とっても貴重な経験でした。
ただ、体験見本の写真ではもっと奥深くまで行けそうな感じですが、実際は大きな岩を一周するだけでした。
The shuttle bus driving was rough? I usually don't get car sick, but I felt like I was going to throw up this time. (It might also be because the traffic was slow due to a jam.) If you tend to get mot

I have visited Kualoa Ranch many times, and I usually only did horseback riding, but due to the weak yen, I made a reservation for this experience this time. I was surprised to find such a place within Kualoa Ranch. However, the lunch was not good, and wild birds came to the dining area, making it very difficult to eat slowly. I wonder if it was hygienic? As for the afternoon cruise, it was very refreshing, but it was different from what I had expected, and I felt scared due to the strong winds. The explanations were in English, so I couldn't understand the content at all.
クアロアランチには何度も来ていて、いつもは乗馬だけでしたが、円安の状況で今回の内容で予約をしました。クアロアランチ内にあんな場所かあったとは驚きでした。ただランチの内容は良くなかったし、食事の場所に野鳥が来てとてもゆっくり食べれませんでした。衛生的にも良くないかと?午後からのクルーズですが、思っていたクルーズとは違いとても新鮮でしたが、強風にあおられて恐怖を感じました。英語でのでの説明でしたので内容も全く分かりませんでした。
I think it's better to avoid this plan on windy days!
このプランは強風の日は止めた方が良いかと思いますよ!
We are a couple who are not good at mountain climbing, but the Diamond Bed is different. We both felt it was worth climbing. While experiencing various histories, the view from the summit is exceptional. Also, the driver who provided the transportation was very kind and truly a wonderful person.
山登りが苦手な夫婦です。ダイヤモンドベッドだけは違います。登る価値があると夫婦で感じました。色んな歴史に触れながら、頂上の風景は格別です。
それと、送迎をしてくださったドライバーさんがとても親切で本当に良い方でした。
Even if you're not good at mountain climbing, please make sure to visit at least once. I think you'll feel the change in the scenery you see.
山登りが苦手な方でもぜひ一度は訪れてみてください。みる景色が変わって感じると思います。
Great fun, atv easy to drive, scenery gorgeous , tour guides great, interacted with guests, took pictures for us, great personalities lots of photo opts. Highly recommend
Dusty, hang onto your phone!!! Lots of bumps
I was nervous until I joined, but the video explanation in Japanese and having instructors at the front and back made me feel at ease. It was a bit funny that everyone was called by their horse's name during the ride. The horses were well-trained and followed the horse in front without breaking the line, so I didn't have to worry much about handling the reins. After about the first five minutes, my tension eased, and I was able to enjoy the magnificent scenery. It was an extraordinary experience, like stepping into a movie. Thank you for the wonderful program; I would love to participate again!
参加するまでは緊張していたのですが、日本語でのビデオ説明や、先頭と一番後方にインストラクターが付いてくれるので安心できました。乗馬中はお馬さんの名前で皆さん呼ばれていたのがちょっと面白かったです。お馬さんもよく調教されていて、決して列を乱すことなく前を歩くお馬さんの後に勝手に付いて行ってくれたので、心配していた綱捌きが必要な場面はあまりありませんでした。最初の5分程度で緊張感もほどけて、あとは雄大な景色を満喫。映画の中に入り込んだような非日常の体験を得られました。素敵なプログラムをありがとうございました、また参加したいです!
While riding, there is a protrusion called a horn that you can grab onto to maintain your balance. There is a small, simple bag that can be hooked onto it and hung down on either side, so it's recomme
乗馬中、手で掴んでバランスをとるホーンと呼ばれる突起があるのですが、そこに引っ掛けて左右に垂らすことができる簡易的な小さなバッグがある程度ですので、荷物はスマホくらいがおすすめです。
I was healed by the vast nature and the cuteness of the horses. The staff accompanying the horseback riding tour spoke the necessary Japanese, making the instructions easy to understand. After arriving, I had some time before check-in, so I brought breakfast and ate it. The driver was very talkative in the car early in the morning, which was a bit annoying.
広大な自然と、馬のかわいさに癒された。乗馬ツアーの同行スタッフは必要な日本語が話せるため、なんの指示か分かりやすい。到着後、チェックインまで時間があるので朝ごはんを持って行って食べた。ドライバーは早朝なのに車の中でずっとしゃべりっぱなしでうるさかった。
The café at Kualoa Ranch was just okay in terms of taste, so it's better to either bring your own lunch or eat after returning to Honolulu.
クアロアランチのカフェは味はまぁまぁだったから、昼ごはんは持って行くか、ホノルルに戻ってから食べるのがいい。
On the day I arrived in Honolulu, the weather was bad and cold the next day, and I ended up catching a cold. I thought it would be impossible to go into the ocean in such cold weather, so I immediately contacted the tour company. However, they told me that since it was just three days prior, there would be a 100% cancellation fee. Reluctantly, I went anyway, but it was very cold, and I ended up just waiting inside the boat for my companions. Many other people also didn't go into the ocean because of the cold, so I really think this tour should be avoided depending on the season. No matter the reason, having a 100% cancellation fee three days before is quite harsh.
今回ホノルル到着日、翌日とお天気悪く寒くて風邪をひいてしまいました。
これでは寒い中海に入るのは無理と思い、直ぐにツアー会社に連絡をしましたが、丁度3日前でキャンセル料が100%かかると言われ、仕方なく無理して行きましたが、とても寒くやはり船の中で連れを待っているだけで終わってしまいました。
他にもたくさんの人が寒くて海には入っていなかったので、
このツアーは時期によってはやめた方がいいとつくづく思いました。
どんな理由でも、キャンセル料が3日前で100%と言うのもかなりきついです。
It’s better to avoid it depending on the season.
時期によってはやめた方がいい。
Aloha Julie,
Thank you very much for sharing your feedback with us. We are truly sorry to hear that you were unable to fully enjoy the tour due to the cold weather. We remember receiving your call when you expressed your concerns about the cold and wished to cancel. It was unfortunate that we had to inform you that cancellations due to weather conditions are difficult to accommodate, and we regret that we could not meet your expectations.
Our tours take place in natural environments, so we cannot completely control the changes in weather. We hope you understand that we apply our standard cancellation policy uniformly for management purposes. We will take your valuable feedback into account as we strive to improve our services in the future.
Thank you once again for your candid comments.
Mahalo,

Aloha ジュリ様
この度はご感想をお寄せいただき、誠にありがとうございます。 当日は寒さのためツアーを十分にお楽しみいただけなかったとのこと、私どもとしても大変残念に思っております。 寒さのご心配からキャンセルをご希望された際のご連絡を電話でいただいたことを覚えております。 天候によるキャンセルが難しい旨をご案内する形となってしまい、 ご期待に沿えなかったことを心苦しく感じております。
弊社のツアーは自然環境の中で行われるため、天候の変化は完全にコントロールすることができません。 また管理上、規定のキャンセルポリシーを一律で適用させていただいておりますことを ご理解いただけますと幸いです。
貴重なご意見は今後のサービス向上のために大切に活かしてまいります。
この度は率直なご意見をお寄せいただき、誠にありがとうございました。

This was my first time in Haleiwa Town. Unlike Honolulu, it has a calm atmosphere with cute shops scattered around, making it easy and fun to explore.
I participated in the shuttle that departed at 7 AM. While popular shops open at 10 or 11 AM, there are some that open early, so I thoroughly enjoyed the 5 hours of free time. The driver was punctual, and I was able to enjoy the exclusive mini tour offered by Veltra.
ハレイワタウンは初めて。ホノルル と違って落ち着いた雰囲気の中にかわいいお店が点在していて、周りやすいし楽しい。
送迎は7時台出発に参加した。人気のお店が10時か、11時オープンだが、朝からやっているお店もあるので、5時間のフリータイムは大満喫。ドライバーも時間通りで、ベルトラ 限定のミニツアーも楽しめた。
Knowing the stores you want to visit in advance will make the five hours after your arrival more meaningful.
行きたいお店を事前に把握しておくと到着後の5時間は有意義になる。
This is such a wonderful experience! Very well run, and like nothing else!
Although there were concerns about the weather, the summit was clear, and both the sunset and starry sky were incredibly beautiful and amazing. The guide's explanations were also thorough and easy to understand.
天気が心配されましたが、山頂は晴れていて夕日も星空も大変綺麗で最高でした。
ガイドさんの説明も丁寧でわかりやすかったです
We had a great time taking a shuttle up to the ranch and going on the Hollywood Movie Sites 90-minute tour. Our shuttle driver/tour guide was awesome and we loved the T-Rex photo he took for us. We had an awesome lunch while we waited to return to Waikiki, including a fantastic Dole Whip shake.
I participated in a dolphin watching and snorkeling tour. Overall, the atmosphere was very pleasant, and the views of the sea and mountains were beautiful, which really lifted my spirits during the trip. Although I couldn't swim with the dolphins this time, I was lucky to see them up close, and it was said that encountering two different species of dolphins is quite rare (about once in ten times). The sight of the dolphins surfing on the waves created by the boat was also impressive.
During snorkeling, I was able to see many sea turtles and schools of fish, which made me very satisfied. The underwater world was more lively than I had imagined, and time flew by. The sandwiches for lunch and the potato chips for snacks were delicious and added a nice touch to the experience.
Among the participants, we were the only Japanese, but Ken provided interpretation and support, making the trivia and explanations easy to understand, which allowed us to enjoy the tour with peace of mind.
One point to note is that the air conditioning on the bus was quite strong, making it very cold, and I noticed several people around me wrapped in beach towels. I also used a beach towel to keep warm, so I think having something to wear would be reassuring. Additionally, after coming out of the water, I felt quite cold, so a jacket is essential. It was mentioned that the boat can sway quite a bit on certain days, so having motion sickness medication ready would also be a good idea.
Overall, it was a very enjoyable and memorable tour.
イルカウォッチング&シュノーケルに参加しました。全体的に雰囲気がとてもよく、海と山の眺めもきれいで、移動中から気分が上がりました。今回はイルカと一緒に泳ぐことはできませんでしたが、船のすぐ近くでイルカを見ることができ、さらに2種類のイルカに出会えたのはとてもラッキーだったそうです(見られるのは10回に1回くらいとのこと)。イルカが船の波で楽しそうにサーフィンしている姿も印象的でした。
シュノーケリングでは、たくさんの海亀や魚の大群を見ることができて大満足。海の中は想像以上ににぎやかで、時間があっという間に感じました。ランチのサンドイッチやおやつのポテトチップスも美味しく、ちょっとした楽しみになりました。
参加者の中で日本人は私たちだけでしたが、Kenさんが通訳やフォローをしてくれて、豆知識や説明も分かりやすく、安心して楽しむことができました。
一点だけ、行きのバスがかなり冷房が効いていてとても寒く、周りでもバスタオルをかぶっている人が何人かいました。私もバスタオルで寒さをしのいだので、羽織れるものがあると安心だと思います。また、海から上がった後もかなり体が冷えるので上着は必須です。日によっては揺れが強いこともあるそうなので、酔い止めも用意しておくと安心だと思います。
全体として、とても楽しく思い出に残るツアーでした。
It's a good idea to bring something you can wear over your clothes and some motion sickness medication!
羽織れるものや酔い止めは持っていったほうがいいです!
Aloha! Nuu-sama. Thank you for participating in the Dolphin University. We appreciate you sharing so many beautiful photos. I'm sorry that you couldn't swim with the dolphins, which must have been disappointing. Still, it was great that you were able to encounter two types of dolphins and see the dolphins surfing!! Your comments about our Japanese guide, Ken, will be encouraging for him!! We will share your feedback regarding the temperature on the bus internally. Please come visit us again when you are in Hawaii. Mahalo nui and a hui hou!
アロハ! ぬーさま。イルカ大学に参加していただき、ありがとうございました。沢山の美しい写真を共有していただき、感謝いたします。イルカと一緒に泳ぐことがでず、残念な思いをさせてしましました。それでも2種類のイルカに出会えたり、イルカのサーフィンを見ることができて良かったです!! 日本語ガイドのKenに関するコメントはKenにとって励みになります!! バスの中での温度に関してのご申告は社内で共有いたします。ぜひまた、ハワイにいらっしゃる際には遊びに来てくださいね。Mahalo nui and a hui hou!
Nič podobné som ešte nevidela.Urcite doporučujem pri návšteve tohoto krásneho divokého ostrova!
Najsilnejší zazitok počas našej trojtyzdnovej dovolenky na Hawajskych ostrovoch.
We had a fantastic tour with a fun and experienced crew. Saw the sights, heard the history and made us want more. Thank you Kona and Captain for building our memories on Kauai. Those dolphins and whales provided a great show!
Remember if you wear hats to fasten them as the wind may well take them!
It is what it claims. You sit and ride up the river to a short hike to a natural feature where water drips over cavernous undercut. On tour they explained a few things but the acoustics where I sat weren't great to understand everything. Between that they sang some Hawaiian songs. All fine. Just wouldn't expect too much.
If you old and boring you may enjoy. If you trying to entertain kids, consider something else.
Loved the crew and their stories and jokes. Also loved hearing about the history and culture of this beautiful part of the world.
The cheerful crew kept us entertained throughout.
Even if you're not good with thrills, you can still enjoy it, so definitely give it a try!
陽気なクルーの方が終始楽しませてくれました。
絶叫が苦手でも楽しむことができたのでぜひやってみてください。
