Hawaii
I have visited Haleiwa several times, but I wanted to go to Waimea Valley, so I joined this tour. I was also satisfied to see Pohakuloa on the mini tour.
However, there was one issue: the schedule stated that we would leave Waimea Valley at 11:00 AM and arrive in Haleiwa around 11:30 AM, with the mini tour departing at 12:30 PM. I had hoped to eat garlic shrimp during that time, but the actual departure from Waimea was at 11:30 AM, leaving us with only 30 minutes in Haleiwa. Unfortunately, I couldn't eat anything there, which was disappointing. Since I planned my participation in advance, I would like the schedule to be followed properly.
ハレイワには何度か来ましたが、ワイメア渓谷に行ってみたかったのでこちらのツアーに参加しました。ついでにミニツアーでポハクラナイを見ることができて満足です。
ただ一点、予定では11時にワイメア渓谷を出発して11時半頃ハレイワに到着、ミニツアー出発は12時半とあったのでその間にガーリックシュリンプを食べたいと思っていたのですが、実際のワイメア出発時間は11時半でハレイワ滞在時間は30分しかなく、結局現地では何も食べることができず残念な思いをしました。こちらは事前に予定を組んで参加しているのでスケジュールはちゃんと守ってほしいです。

I only attended the show, but it was more wonderful than I imagined. I'm very satisfied! Elvis, Michael, and the hula girls were all amazing!
ショーだけ参加でしたが想像より素敵なショーでした。
大満足❗️
エルビスもマイケルも、フラガールも
最高でしたよ♪
Thank you very much for visiting our Rockafella with your spouse. We are very pleased to hear that you were satisfied with Elvis, Michael, and the overall entertainment. We look forward to welcoming you back in Hawaii next time.
この度は私共のロッカフラにご夫婦でお越し頂き誠に有難うございました。エルビスにマイケルそして、エンターテインメント全体的に満足して頂き大変嬉しく思っております。次回もまたハワイでお待ちしております。

The ride was a perfect mix of adrenaline and safety, and our two guides were not only pros—they were bursting with amazing knowledge. Spotting the actual movie props left behind felt surreal and made the whole adventure even more epic. The surrounding nature was jaw-dropping, and the guides snapped the most incredible photos for us. Couldn’t recommend this experience more! Mahalo!
The sea was very beautiful, and I was able to swim with many fish. Above all, I was really happy to encounter a sea turtle! However, when we went further out, the waves were quite strong, and I ended up feeling seasick towards the end. The guides were also very kind and took a lot of photos for us, making it a truly enjoyable experience.
海はとても綺麗でたくさんの魚と泳ぐことができました。
なんといってもウミガメに出会えたことが嬉しかったです！
ただ沖の方まで行くと波がそこそこ強く、酔ってしまい最後の方しんどかったです。
ガイドの方たちもとても親切で写真もたくさん撮っていただけて本当に楽しい体験ができました。
If you are prone to motion sickness, I recommend taking anti-nausea medication.
酔いやすい方は酔い止めをお勧めします。
Thank you for joining the tour. It was great that you got to see the sea turtles. It's especially lucky to see two in the same spot, as that is very rare. I'm truly sorry to hear that you experienced seasickness. Next time, if you take some motion sickness medication beforehand, I believe you'll have a more comfortable swimming experience. We look forward to seeing you again. Thank you very much. Mahalo!!
この度はツアーにお越しいただき、ありがとうございました。ウミガメに会えて良かったですね。しかも同じ場所に2匹いるのはとてもレアですから、特にラッキーでしたね。波酔いしてしまったとの事、こちらは本当にごめんなさいです。次回は事前に酔い止めを飲んでご参加していただければ、もっと快適に泳いでいただけると思います。またお会いできますことをお待ちしております。本当にありがとうございました。Mahalo!!

We experienced this with our family of four, including an elementary school student and a middle school student! The sea was beautiful, and we saw fish and turtles swimming around! We enjoyed various activities like stand-up paddleboarding. The kids are definitely saying they want to go again!

My first time at Kualoa Ranch! It's definitely a place I want everyone to visit and I want to go back again. It was amazing to drive the buggies ourselves through the magnificent scenery.
初めてのクアロアランチ！絶対行ってほしい、また行きたいお気に入りの場所になりました。

After arriving at Kualoa Ranch, I had some time before my buggy ride, so I think I could have enjoyed it more if I had researched the facilities and activities inside!

This time, I participated with my mother, who is in her mid-80s. Initially, we thought we would have to give up on joining the tour because of her age, but after doing some research, we found out that there was a beginner-friendly course, so we decided to participate.
Our guide, Hoku (a foreigner), explained the plants in fluent Japanese and was considerate of our walking pace. Thanks to him, we were able to return safely without any injuries.
The sandwich we had afterward at Tantalus Lookout was delicious. We were able to see a different side of Hawaii, distinct from the beach.
今回は80代半ばの母親と参加しました。当初母が高齢ということもあり、ツアー参加は諦めていましたが、いろいろ調べて見ると初心者向けのコースと分かり参加を決意。
ガイドのホクさん（外国人）は流暢な日本語で植物の説明をしてくださり、また歩くスピードにも気を遣ってくれました。おかげで怪我なく無事戻れました。
その後のタンタラスの丘で食べたサンドイッチは美味しかったです。ビーチとはまた違ったハワイの一面を見ることが出来ました。
I think it depends on the weather, but sturdy shoes are a good idea as your feet can get quite dirty. The tour to places that are not easily accessible on your own was enjoyable.
お天気に左右されると思いますが、足元はしっかりとした靴が良いと思います。結構汚れます。
個人ではなかなか行くことが無い場所へのツアーは楽しかったです
Aloha,
Thank you very much for participating in our tour. We are truly grateful that you chose our tour for your important trip with your mother.
I understand there may have been some concerns regarding your age at first, but we are very relieved to hear that you returned safely without any injuries. We also appreciate your kind words about our guide's Japanese explanations and consideration for the walking pace, which will be a great encouragement for them.
We are delighted to hear that you enjoyed the sandwiches at Tantalus and the unique nature of Hawaii, different from the beaches. Your valuable advice regarding footwear will certainly be helpful for future participants.
Since these are places that are not easily visited individually, we are honored that you were able to experience the unique charm of our tour.
When you come to Hawaii again, please do stop by with your mother. All of our staff are looking forward to welcoming you.
Mahalo!
アロハ、
この度は、ツアーにご参加いただき誠にありがとうございました。
また、お母様との大切なご旅行に当ツアーをお選びいただき、心より感謝申し上げます。
当初はご年齢のことでご不安もあったかと思いますが、無事に怪我なくお戻りいただけたとのこと、私どもも大変安心いたしました。ガイドの日本語でのご案内や歩行ペースへの配慮についてもお褒めの言葉をいただき、本人にとっても大きな励みになります。
タンタラスの丘でのサンドイッチや、ビーチとは異なるハワイの自然をお楽しみいただけたとのこと、とても嬉しく思います。足元についての貴重なアドバイスも、これから参加されるお客様にとって参考になるお言葉です。
個人ではなかなか訪れることのない場所だからこそ、ツアーならではの魅力を感じていただけたことを光栄に思います。
またハワイにお越しの際は、ぜひお母様とご一緒にお立ち寄りください。スタッフ一同、心よりお待ちしております。

I was looking for a place I had never been to and a tour I had never experienced before, and I found this tour. I have been to the Dole Plantation many times, but this was the first time I learned that you can take a factory tour right across the street.
On the day of the tour, it had rained the night before, so the ground was nicely damp, which was great. Our guide, Nori, took photos at various locations and also took us to sightseeing spots other than Haleiwa Town. I think it was because there were only a few participants that he was able to accommodate our requests.
今までに行ったことのない場所、経験したことの無いツアーを探していて、本ツアーを見つけました。ドールプランテーションには何度も行っていますが、向かい側で工場見学ができることを今回初めて知りました。

ガイドのノリさんは、場所場所で写真を撮ってくださり、ハレイワタウン以外にも観光名所に連れて行ってくれました。参加者が少人数だったのでリクエストに応えてくれたのだと思います。

I finally managed to convince my wife to go parasailing. At first, I was filled with fear, but according to her, once we were up in the air, we could see Diamond Head, the hotel we were staying at, and Waikiki Beach. It was the best location!
女房説得し、やっとパラセーリングをすることができました。最初は恐怖心でいっぱいでしたが、女房曰く上がってみるとダイヤモンドヘッドは見えるし、止まっていたホテルも見えるし、ワイキキビーチも見えるし最高のロケーションでした。

The sunset viewed in the clear air was truly beautiful. It might have been the first time I focused solely on the "sunset" without needing to think about anything else. It was simply beautiful. The stunning scenery before and after the sunset allows for a wonderful time that lasts longer than expected. Additionally, I was able to see the Venus Belt when I looked back, but this time, due to volcanic gas, I couldn't see the green flash. I would like to participate again the next time I visit the Big Island of Hawaii.
澄んだ空気の中見る日没は本当に美しかったです。
何かを考える必要のない中で「日没」に集中したのは初めてかもしれません。ただただ美しいものでした。
日没の前後で美しい景色は広がっているので、想定よりも長い間、素敵な時間を過ごせると思います。
また、振り返るとビーナスベルトが見れましたし、今回は火山ガスの影響でグリーンフラッシュは見れませんでした。
次回ハワイ島を訪れるときはまた参加したいと思います。
Using a tripod to stabilize your camera for shooting is recommended. Additionally, I think you'll enjoy discovering various meteorological phenomena like the Venus Belt and the Green Flash.

I was a bit confused about the meeting place, but I felt relieved when I saw a lot of people lined up at the meeting time. However, I wish there had been some kind of sign indicating the cruise name.
Onboard, the staff entertained us, and we were able to see the sunset over the sea. It was a satisfying tour.

The prices are reasonable, and there's enough time spent floating to have a lot of fun. Above all, the quick transitions and the efficient putting on and taking off of equipment made it very time-effective, and it was great to see Diamond Head from the ocean. The time from gathering to dispersing is short, allowing for additional plans afterward. I felt that it was a good cost-performance ratio because I was able to enjoy it in a short time and was very satisfied.
お手頃な価格ですが、浮いている時間もソコソコあるので十分楽しめます。
なによりテキパキと交代、装備の付け外しをしてくれるのでとてもタイパが良く、海からのダイヤモンドヘッドも見られて良かったです。集合から解散までの時間が短いので、その後にも予定が入れられます。
短い時間で楽しめて満足度も高いのでコスパが良いと感じました。
You can land without getting into the sea, but since you're here, I recommend enjoying the experience of getting into the water.

I have always wanted to enjoy Hawaii from the sky, either by Cessna or helicopter, and I chose a Cessna guided by a Japanese pilot! As a result, I was able to fully enjoy Oahu, and I was overwhelmed with emotion.
- Honolulu area
- Kailua and Hanauma Bay
- North Shore area
- Kualoa Ranch
- Pearl Harbor
The guide provided a thorough tour over the course of an hour. It was such a luxurious flight! I was particularly thrilled when flying through the valleys of Kualoa Ranch and when I could see the entire sunken ship at Pearl Harbor. I believe this is an experience you can't have on the ground.
And of course, the ocean is incredibly beautiful and breathtaking! The clarity of the water varies by area, so you can enjoy different colors of the sea, such as blue, light blue, and emerald green.
If anyone is hesitating, I highly recommend it as it will become a lifelong memory! Next time, I would like to try the piloting experience as well!
かねてから、セスナかヘリコプターでハワイを空から楽しみたいと思っていたのですが、日本の方がガイドしてくださるセスナを選びました！
結果、オアフ島を堪能できてとても感無量でした。
・ホノルルエリア
・カイルアやハナウマ湾
・ノースショアエリア
・クアロアランチ
・パールハーバー
など、1時間かけてたっぷりガイドしてくださいます。
とても贅沢なフライトでした！
特に、クアロアランチの渓間を飛んでいるときや、パールハーバーで沈んだ船全体が見えたときは胸が高まりました。
地上ではできない経験だと思います。
そして、海は言わずもがなとても綺麗で絶景です！

Out of the nine participants, we were the only two Japanese, and my wife didn't understand any English at all, but it was really comforting to have explanations in Japanese. The guide didn't even take a break to eat and prepared everything for us, for which we are truly grateful. The starry sky was absolutely amazing, and I was reminded of the summer constellations like the Summer Cross and Subaru that I had studied long ago, which I had completely forgotten about. At the end, the guide spoke in English, passionately discussing the vastness of the universe compared to the shortness and significance of human life, which left a deep impression on me as I got into the car (though I think my wife didn't understand). Initially, I thought it was naive to try to climb Haleakalā by myself. I would love to participate again if I have the chance.
９人参加の中で日本人は私たち二人しかおらず、妻は全く英語がわからなかったのですが、やはり日本語で解説されるとホッとします。ガイドさんは自分の食事も取らず、私たちのために準備をしてくれて本当に感謝です。星空も本当に素晴らしくてかつて勉強した夏の十字星やスバルなど久しぶりに聴き、すっかり忘れていたなと思い返しました。最後にガイドさんが英語でしたが、宇宙の壮大さに比べ、人間の人生の短さやその意義などを熱く語ってくれて感激して帰りの車に乗りました（家内はわからなかったと思うけど）。最初は自分でハレアカラに登ろうとしたことが本当に浅はかでした。また機会があれば参加したいと思います。
The summit gets quite cold at night, so I think it's best to dress warmly. If you wear glasses, you might want to take them off when looking through the telescope.
頂上は夜かなり冷えますので、防寒はしっかりしたほうが良いと思います。望遠鏡を覗くときにメガネの方ははずした方が良いかもしれません。

This is my second time using this service. I will arrive in Haleiwa before 9 AM. It took a little time to get through the busy downtown area on the way there due to heavy traffic. The route may change depending on the driver and traffic conditions. We have five hours on-site, but if you enjoy shopping, that might not be enough time. The main area from around Giovanni's Shrimp Truck to Surf N Sea is walkable. I gave the driver a tip for both the outbound and return trips, but I didn't see many other people doing the same.
今回2回目の利用です。ハレイワには9時前に着きます。
行きの中心部を抜けるのは交通量の多さから少し時間掛かりました。
運転手や交通量により、ルートは変わるかも知れません。

運転手さんには行き帰りでそれぞれChipを渡しましたが、他の方は余り渡している様子は見られませんでした。
For those who don't use rental cars, I recommend a longer stay. As for the tip, we gave $5 for one way (laughs). I'm not sure if that's a lot or a little.

Ziplining while enjoying the magnificent views at Kualoa Ranch was incredibly refreshing. There were three instructors with us, which made it very safe, but since the explanations were in English, I couldn't understand anything they were saying. When I expressed this, they showed me a video in Japanese, which made me feel more at ease.
数本のジップラインをクアロアランチの壮大な景色を見ながら行くのは、とても爽快でした。３名のインストラクターがついてくれて、とても安全に出来ますが、英語での説明でしたので、何を言ってるのか全くわかりませんでした。それを伝えると、日本語のビデオを見せてくれたので、安心できました。

The Manoa Falls Trail has beautiful scenery and it’s an easy/ moderate hike going up. But the Manoa Falls at this time ( November) has little water but still worth the hike and a lot of great spots for IG.

Thank you and it was a great experience!
Doug and Josh are very detailed about all aspects which puts all at ease and Doug’s knowledge and way of speaking is engaging and adds to the experience!

We were picked up in front of the hotel at 5:30 AM and headed to Diamond Head. The Japanese guide was cheerful, kind, and absolutely wonderful! We had an amazing time enjoying the best sights of Oahu.

While the weather was fortunate, both the sunset at the summit of Mauna Kea and the starry sky were truly magnificent. We had plenty of time for stargazing, and I was able to fully enjoy it. I highly recommend it for those who love the night sky.

The summit can be very cold and windy, so I think it's a good idea to get warm clothing and gloves while you are at the visitor center before heading to the top.

Loved this tour - our tour guide was very accommodating and knowledgeable and we saw some beautiful spots of the island. Definitely recommend this trip as you get to see a lot in one day. My favourite places were the black sand beach with the sea turtles and the Volcanoes National Park (but to be honest, I loved all the sites).
The weather was favorable, and I felt very secure during the tour experience with a Japanese guide. There was also a practice session for snorkeling, making it a great tour that even children could enjoy safely.

This tour was highly recommended! The view from the summit was amazing, and the experience of watching the sunset and stargazing really lifted my spirits. Additionally, the guide covered the challenging parts, which made it much easier on both my body and mind.
The tour takes half a day, but during the travel, I listened to the guide's explanations, and at each spot, we took our time to thoroughly explore Mauna Kea, making for a fulfilling experience. I think preparing to go on your own would be quite difficult, but this tour takes care of altitude acclimatization, time management for descending, providing warm clothing and telescopes, as well as sandwiches and hot cocoa. Plus, I could rely on them for the long drive, making it a very convenient experience.
Being able to drive to this altitude is rare worldwide, and this tour minimizes the burden while maximizing the experience. Overall, it was fantastic, and there were no inconveniences at all.
とてもオススメできるツアーでした！
頂上からの眺めは素晴らしく、日の入りも星見も気分が上がる体験です。
そして、大変な部分をガイドさんがカバーしてくれて、心身の負担が少なかったです。
ツアーは半日を要しますが、移動ではガイドさんの説明を聞き、各スポットではそれぞれ時間をとって、マウナケアをしっかりと見て回り、充実した時を過ごせました。
個人で行くには準備が大変だと思いますが、このツアーでは高地順応な下山の時間管理、防寒着や望遠鏡の準備、サンドイッチやホットココアの用意もしていただき、また長距離の運転もお任せできるので、とても手軽に体験ができるようになっています。
そもそもこの高度に車で行ける事自体が世界的に稀ですが、さらに負担を少なく、体験を最大化してくれているツアーです。
総じて素晴らしく、何も不便がありませんでした。
You can borrow winter clothing, but you should still bring your own winter inner layers and hand warmers. The summit is freezing cold, so if you're not prepared, you won't be able to stand outside.

After visiting the Arizona Memorial at Pearl Harbor on November 18, 2025, I went to the Battleship Missouri Memorial. I was able to make an online reservation before departing from Japan, which made my visit very reassuring.
The Battleship Missouri was launched in January 1944 and participated in the Iwo Jima and Okinawa landings. On September 2, 1945, it served as the venue for the signing ceremony of the surrender documents between the Allied forces led by General MacArthur and the Japanese government delegation led by Foreign Minister Shigemitsu.
Later, in 1950, it was deployed during the Korean War, and although it was decommissioned in 1955, it was reactivated in 1986. It participated in the Gulf War in 1991, was decommissioned again in 1992, and arrived at Pearl Harbor in 1998, opening as a memorial the following year. The Missouri is referred to as the last battleship because it was the last to be completed and the last to be decommissioned.
There are Japanese-speaking volunteer guides on board who provide detailed information about the history of the Missouri, its main guns, and the surrender document signing ceremony, so I recommend requesting a guide.
There is a counter at the entrance where you can check in. After the guided tour, you can freely explore the ship. You can visit various areas of the battleship that are not typically accessible, including the bridge, the dining areas for senior officers and sailors, the sleeping quarters, and the ship's post office, making it a valuable experience.
2025年11月18日にパールハーバーのアリゾナ記念館を見学後、戦艦ミズーリ記念館を訪れました。
日本出発前にオンラインで予約が出来、安心して訪問する事が出来ました。
戦艦ミズーリは1944年１月に進水後、硫黄島上陸作戦や沖縄上陸作戦に参加し、1945年9月2日マッカーサー元帥率いる連合軍側と、重光葵全権率いる日本政府代表団との間で、東京湾上で行われた降伏文書調印式の会場となりました。
その後1950年に朝鮮戦争に出動、1955年に一度退役しましたが、1986年に再就役し、1991年に湾岸戦争に出動、1992年に再度退役し1998年にパールハーバーに到着し、翌年から記念館として公開されています。
ミズーリは最後に完成し最後に退役した事から最後の戦艦と呼ばれています。
艦内では日本語のボランティアガイドが常駐していて、ミズーリの歴史や主砲、降伏文書調印式の様子などを詳しく教えてくれますから、ガイドを依頼する事をお勧めします。
艦に登った所にカウンターがありそこで受付をしています。
ガイド終了後は自由に艦内を見学出来ます。艦橋を始め上級士官や水兵の食堂、寝室、艦内の郵便局など、普通目にする事が出来ない戦艦の様々な場所を見学出来るので貴重な体験です。
It takes about 2 hours to see everything inside the ship, so I recommend visiting with plenty of time to spare.
艦内を全て見るには約2時間程掛かりますから、時間には十分余裕をもって訪問する事をお勧めします。
