Hawaii
During our stay, we requested two lessons. My 8-year-old son discovered the joy of surfing during the first lesson. Right after the first lesson ended, we made a reservation for the next day. Since Matt, the instructor, was so kind, we arranged for the second lesson with him as well! I was amazed that he was already standing on the board during the first lesson, but he improved even more during the second lesson, so I’m grateful that we decided to do it.
For the second lesson, we were at a location a bit farther away, so we couldn't take photos from the beach, but the photographer took some wonderful pictures for us. My son is already saying, "Next time we go to Hawaii, I want to surf every day!" Waikiki BeachBoys is a school where not only the coaches but all the staff are warm and welcoming, and I definitely want to request lessons again! Thank you very much.
滞在中に 2回レッスンをお願いしました。
1回目のレッスンですっかりサーフィンの楽しさを知った8歳の息子。
1回目のレッスンが終わったその場で、翌日の予約をお願いしました。
マット先生が優しく教えてくれたので、 2回目も同じマット先生で調整していただきました!
1回目さえ、もうボードに立ってる!と驚きましたが、1回目より 2回目の方が更に上達していたので、お願いする価値があったなぁと感謝しています。
2回目は、少し離れた場所でレッスンをしてもらったので、ビーチからは写真が撮れなかったのですが、カメラマンがしっかりと素敵な写真を撮ってきてくれます。
「次にハワイに行く時は、毎日サーフィンをしたい!」と今から息子は言っています。
Waikiki BeachBoysさんは、コーチだけでなく、スタッフの皆さんが温かくて、是非またレッスンをお願いしたいなと思うスクールです!
ありがとうございました。
Dear J.K.,
Congratulations on your son's surfing debut! We are truly honored that you chose our company! We are very happy to hear that you shared such a memorable experience! We would be grateful if you could use our Waikiki Beach services again next time. We look forward to the next opportunity!
J.K.様:
息子さんのサーフィンデビューおめでとうございます!弊社を選んでいただき誠に光栄です!とても思い出に残る体験をシェアして頂き、とても嬉しいです!次回もワイキキビーチサービスをご利用いただけるとありがたいです。次回の機会をお待ちしております!
We booked the Friday night fireworks cruise for Halloween. We got married that day and this was a fun way to celebrate with our adult children. The cruise was fun and the kids enjoyed the open bar. The fireworks were great.
You load the boat on the beach so wear shoes that are easy to slip off.
This was the one tour that my soon-to-be husband wanted to do since he is a big World War II fan. Our favorite part was visiting the USS Arizona and the aerial museum. The audio tour at Pearl Harbor was insightful for myself not knowing as much as my partner. It was a very long day and we were very hot when we got to the USS Missouri. The guides were knowledgeable and friendly. Loved the pick up and drop off at our hotel.
Wear comfy shoes and a hat is highly recommended.
Aloha Kara,
Mahalo for your five-star review! We're so happy to hear you enjoyed the Pearl Harbor tour with lunch by Polynesian Adventure. We’ve shared your kind words with your driver — we're sure it will put a smile on his face. We look forward to welcoming you back for another unforgettable island adventure!
With warm aloha,
The Polynesian Adventure ʻOhana’
I was moved to be able to visit the summit of Mauna Kea, renowned as a sacred mountain. On the way, as soon as we arrived at the mountain, it started to rain, and there were moments when thick fog made it hard to see, which made me anxious about reaching the summit. However, in the end, I was able to see the sunset through a gap in the clouds.
I felt grateful to witness both the harshness and gentleness of nature.
I also want to thank our guide, who explained everything in Japanese using Google Translate, as I can hardly speak or understand English.
Although I couldn't see many stars, I’m really glad I went. Thank you!
神聖な山として名高いマウナケア山頂に行けて感動しました。
道中は、山に着いた途端に雨が降り出し、途中濃霧で周りが見えなくなるなど山頂まで行けるかヒヤヒヤしましたが、最後は雲の隙間から日の入りを見ることができました。
自然の厳しさと優しさを見ることができたような気がして、感謝が溢れました。
英語がほとんど話せない&聞けない私に、Google翻訳を駆使して日本語で説明してくれたガイドさんにも感謝。
星はほとんど見れなかったけど、本当に行って良かったです。ありがとうございました!
The summit is extremely cold, so long sleeves and long pants are essential. (They lend you jackets and pants, but it's still cold.)
山頂はめちゃくちゃ寒いので、長袖長ズボンは必須かと。(ジャケットやズボン等を貸してくれますが、それでも寒い)
Since we were staying at Hilton Hawaiian Village, we arrived at the check-in hut in about a 5-minute walk from the hotel. The woman at the reception gave us some mineral water.
Our reservation was for 1 PM, but it ended up being just the two of us. The two male staff members were very kind and spoke in clear English that was easy for us to understand, allowing us to take off smoothly. The view from the sky of Waikiki Beach, Diamond Head, and even the airport in the distance was breathtaking and exceeded our expectations. I highly recommend that anyone who hasn't tried parasailing on their trip to Hawaii definitely participate.
ヒルトンハワイアンビレッジに宿泊していたので、ホテルから歩いて5分程度で受付小屋に到着。受付の女性からミネラルウォーターをいただきました。
13時の予約でしたが、私たち夫婦2名のみでの出発になりました。男性2名の方が親切でまた英語が苦手な私たちにも分かりやすい英語で話しかけてくれて、スムーズに飛び立つこともできました。空からのワイキキビーチ、ダイヤモンドヘッド、遠くは空港まで見渡すことができ、想像以上の景色に感動。ハワイ旅行でパラセイリング未体験の方は是非参加されることをお勧めします。
On the day, it rained, and we rode on somewhat muddy mountain paths. The sun peeked out, and the view from the mountain top was great, which was very soothing. The horse I rode was smart, so it didn't act up, and it was a leisurely ride.
当日は、雨が降り、ややぬかるんだ山道も乗馬
晴れ間も出て、山の頂上からの眺めは良くて、癒されました
乗馬した馬は、頭が良いので、暴れることもなく、のんびりとした乗馬でした
It might be good to have a hat with a brim or a poncho, as it can suddenly rain.
急に雨が降ることがあるので、つばのある防止やポンチョがあるといいかも
It was said to be a location tour, but I was very satisfied with just the magnificent mountain ranges and the cruise. The guide spoke English, and there were no issues at all.
ロケ地めぐりとのことでしたが、大自然の山並み、クルーズだけでも大変満足できました。
英悟でのガイドでしたが全く問題ありませんでした。
As everyone has pointed out, it's safer to avoid the front of the cruise ship. You will get soaked from the waves more than you might expect. (Especially be careful with children.)
皆さん指摘されていますがクルーズは、船の先は避けた方が無難です。
想像以上に波でびしょぬれになります。(特にお子さんは注意です)
On the evening before my return home, I visited. I was very satisfied with both the meal and the dessert, and the live music was great as well. Dining outdoors while listening to Hawaiian music in the evening breeze became a memorable experience.
帰国前日夕方、伺いました。食事もデザートまで、又ライブも大変満足できました。
屋外、夜風の中でのハワイアンミュージックを聞きながらの食事、思い出になりました。
The live performance starts at 6:00 PM, so please arrive a little early to be shown to a good seat and relax.
ライブが18:00から始まりますので少し早めに訪れて良い席に案内してもらって
ゆっくりしてください。
Beyond my expectations! Yama-Pee, our guide, was truly exceptional. With abundant knowledge and experience, along with great attention to detail, I had a wonderful once-in-a-lifetime experience, for which I am grateful. Watching the sunset from the summit of Haleakalā, exploring the impressively large crater, enjoying the magnificent starry sky, and observing Jupiter through a telescope—each of these moments was a treasured memory that will stay in my heart forever.
期待以上の感動!山ピーガイドさん、さすがでした。知識、経験豊富な上、気配りもあって、人生に一度の素晴らしい体験が出来て、感謝です。ハレアカラ山頂からの夕日、度肝をぬかれるサイズのクレーター見学、素晴らしい星空鑑賞、望遠鏡を覗いて木星観察、どれもこれも、一生心に残る宝物の時間でした。
If you go to Hawaii, I definitely recommend extending your trip to Maui. The emotions you experience are beyond words. Be sure to visit Haleakalā National Park! The feelings will last a lifetime.
ハワイへ行ったら、是非マウイ島へ足を延ばすことを、お薦めします。言葉では、伝えきれない感動があります。ハレアカラ国立公園へ是非!感動は、一生ものになります。
I really enjoyed having a bright and energetic female guide. As we walked, she explained various things about flowers and plants, making it a fulfilling experience. It was also fun to interact and spend time with people I met for the first time in a friendly atmosphere.
明るく、元気いっぱいの女性ガイドさんが良かったです。歩きながら、花や植物のお話を色々説明して頂き、充実した内容でした。初対面の方々ともフレンドリーに行動を共に出来て楽しかったです。
You can easily reach Oahu from Japan with a direct flight. After that, I definitely recommend extending your trip to Maui. You'll experience a side of Hawaii you didn't know about. I suggest boldly we
日本からオアフ島までは直行便で、割と気軽に来れます。それから是非、マウイ島まで足をのばしてみてください。知らなかったハワイを体験できます。思い切って水着着用で参加することをお薦めします。
The seat was in the second cheapest location, but it was very good! By chance, there were many empty seats, and the actors were close, which really excited me! Perhaps because there were small children, the actors in the audience winked and waved, which was fun.
座席は2番目に安い場所でしたが、とても良かったです!
たまたまですが空席も多くアクターが近くてテンション上がりました!
小さい子供がいたからか客席のアクターはウインクしてくれたり、手を振ってくれたり楽しかったです。
First of all, it was a lot of fun. The two hours flew by (including the explanations). The staff were friendly and entertained the participants with jokes. The explanations were fine since there was a Japanese video. Once we started running, there were some asphalt areas, but most of the route was unpaved, allowing us to run through nature, which felt great. There were also cows here and there, letting us enjoy the magnificent scenery. We stopped at several places for photo opportunities. It's a driving experience in a 4x4 that you can't have in Japan, and both the driver and passengers can enjoy it.
まずは楽しかったです。
あっという間の2時間でした(説明も含めて)
スタッフの方々も気さくで、ジョークを言いながら参加者を楽しませてくれました。
説明も日本語ビデオがあったので大丈夫です。走り出してからはアスファルトの所もありますが、ほとんどが整地されていなくて自然の中を走っていくのでとても気持ち良かったです。所々に牛などもいて壮大な自然を味わえます。何ヶ所か止まって写真撮影の時間があります。日本では味わえない四駆でのドライブ、ドライバーも同乗者も楽しめます。
When I returned and looked in the mirror, my forehead was completely black. I do not recommend wearing white clothes. They get dirty from the dust. We put our backpacks in a large plastic bag. I recom
戻ってきて鏡をみるとおでこが真っ黒になっていました。白い洋服はおすすめしません。砂ぼこりで汚れます。私達はリュックを大きなビニール袋に入れて置きました。汚れても良い服装をおすすめします。
Saw everything from volcanos to waterfalls and both sides of the island
The atmosphere was really nice under the beautiful moon. Both the show and dinner were excellent! It was a wonderful experience on the Big Island of Hawaii!
月も綺麗な下で、とにかく雰囲気がとても良かったです。
ショーもディナーも、最高でした!
ハワイ島での素敵な体験になりました!
It might be better to go early since the parking lot was full.
駐車場がいっぱいだったので、早めに行った方がいいかもしれません。
We participated as three couples over 60. Two of the couples were first-timers, so I was worried if they would enjoy it. Some participants took motion sickness medication, but the stunning scenery made us forget about seasickness. With unlimited drinks (especially the special drinks made by the staff, which were amazing❣️), we enjoyed our time and had a wonderful experience. Thank you to all the staff for a fun time! 😊
オーバー60の夫婦3組で参加しました。2組は初めてでしたので気に入っていただけるか心配でした。酔い止めを飲みながらの参加の方もいましたが、あまりの素敵な景色に船酔いなど忘れて、飲み放題(特にスタッフが作ってくれたスペシャルドリンクが最高❣️)でお酒も進み、大変楽しい素敵な時間を過ごせました。スタッフの皆さん、楽しい時間ありがとうございました😊
This was a great hike. My husband and I aren’t expert hikers but found this to be enjoyable. The trail is very uneven but most trails are. Wear comfy shoes and take water to stay hydrated. It takes about an hour to get to the top and the views above Honolulu are amazing. We had time to take pictures and enjoy before heading back down. The driver of the shuttle was funny and made the trip even better.
Wear comfortable shoes and take water.
My child drank a lot of seawater during their first snorkeling experience and kept saying it was cold, but thanks to their favorite miso soup, they were able to finish the tour feeling happy. The staff were very polite and kind, making our time there very comfortable.
子どもが初めてのシュノーケルで、大量に海水を飲んでしまい、寒い寒いと言っていましたが、子どもの大好きなお味噌汁があったおかげで、最後まで楽しい気持ちでツアーを終える事でき
またスタッフの方々がとても丁寧で優しく接してくださり、とても快適に過ごせました。
The weather at sea can change quickly, with sudden strong winds and rain, so for those who are not used to tours, it’s helpful to bring something to shield against the wind in addition to a bath towel
海の天候は変わりやすく急に風が強くなったり雨が降る事もあるので、ツアーに慣れてない方はバスタオルの他に、風をしのげる物(我が家はアルミポンチョ←DAISO を持参しました)はあると便利です
Aloha! Thank you very much for joining the Captain Bruce's Heavenly Ocean Tour. We look forward to seeing you again in the Heavenly Ocean, along with the sea turtles. A hui hou!
アロハ!キャプテンブルース天国の海ツアーにご参加頂き本当にありがとうございました。
天国の海でまたお会いできる日をウミガメともにお待ちしております。A hui hou!
Family of twelve with a baby. Best experience. Waiters were always there, Joe was amazing! Highly recommend!!
This was my first time seeing Cirque du Soleil. According to my companion, it's rare to see a performance in such a small venue where the distance to the stage is close from any seat. We watched from the very front row, and if you have the budget, definitely choose the front row. The immersion is incredible. You can feel the water splashes, the performers' breaths, sweat, and voices. I have become a fan of Cirque du Soleil. It made my trip to Hawaii even more special.
今回初めてシルクドソレイユを見ました。
連れ曰くこんなに小箱で見せてくれるところは珍しいらしくどの席からも舞台の距離が近いです。
1番前の席から私たちは見ましたが、お金に余裕があるならぜひ1番前の席を選んでください。没入感がすごいです。
水しぶきや演者の呼吸、汗、声を感じることができます。
私はシルクドソレイユのファンになりました。
ハワイの旅をより一層特別なものにしてくれました。
I hope you can get the best seats. We mistakenly thought the doors opened at 8 PM and arrived right at 8 PM. Since the show starts at 8 PM, I recommend arriving early to get drinks and other supplies.
ぜひ1番いい席をとって欲しいです。
私たちは20時開場と勘違いして20時ちょうどについてしまいました。20時開演なので早めにきて飲み物などを調達することをお勧めします。劇場に買える場所があります。
The view of Waikiki from the sky was amazing. I was worried because I have a fear of heights, but it was stable in the air and I wasn't scared at all. I was captivated by the beautiful scenery, and the time flew by. Also, if you're prone to seasickness, be prepared. The woman in the couple riding with us looked very uncomfortable.
空からみるワイキキの景色は最高でした。
高所恐怖症なので心配していましたが、空中では安定しており全く怖くありませんでした。美しい風景に見とれていて、あっという間の時間でした。
あと、船に弱い方は覚悟してください。同乗していたカップルの女性はとても辛そうでした。
If you go to Hawaii, you absolutely have to experience this! I highly recommend it! When it was over, my face was completely black, but that's also a good memory.
ハワイに行ったら絶対に体験してください!
お勧めです!
終わったとき、顔は真っ黒でしたがそれも良い思い出です。
There were paid lockers available, which were convenient as you could access them multiple times a day.
有料ロッカーがあり、1日何度でも出し入れできて便利でした。
Our guide was from Hawaii, born on Maui, and has been living on the Big Island for two years. He was handsome, had a great voice, and was genuinely kind. The weather wasn’t ideal — it was cloudy, though we did see the sea of clouds and a bit of sunlight breaking through. It still felt magical watching the sunset above the clouds, even without a clear sky. Unfortunately, we couldn’t see any stars that night, probably due to the season (I went in late October). But the next day, on another tour, I did see a sky full of stars — so it’s still possible! Be prepared for altitude sickness; I felt lightheaded at the summit and was glad we descended soon after sunset. Overall, it was a good experience despite the bumpy mountain road — and it felt great to have “checked off” the highest mountain in the world (from base to peak).
It's a small attraction.
It was incredibly fun.
The scenery was great, and the staff were kind, making for a wonderful time.
ちょっとしたアトラクションです。
最高に楽しいです。
景色もよくて、スタッフの方も優しくて素晴らしい時間を過ごせました。
The wait time is long, so it's difficult to know how to spend the time.
待ち時間が長いので、過ごし方が難しいです
Timely pick-up and drop-off
Clean car
Beautiful sea
Polite guidance
No worries in Japan!
It's great
I want to participate again
Thank you very much
I was very satisfied to see the sea turtles
時間どうりの送迎
清潔な車
綺麗な海
丁寧な指導
日本には不安無し!
いいですよ
また参加したいです
ありがとうございました
ウミガメにも会えたい大満足です
Thank you for joining the tour. We are very happy to hear that you enjoyed Hanauma Bay. The weather was great, and it was wonderful that you got to see the turtles. We hope you will join us again on your next visit to Hawaii. We are always here to welcome you back. Thank you very much. Mahalo!!
この度はツアーにお越しくださり、ありがとうございました。
ハナウマ湾を満喫していただけたようで、私達もとっても嬉しいです。
お天気にも恵まれ、カメさんにも会えて本当に良かったですね。
またハワイにお越しの際にはツアーにリピートしていただけたらと思います。いつでもお待ちしております。
本当にありがとうございました。Mahalo!!
I was looking for a snorkeling plan nearby since I didn't have much time. I was very satisfied that we could depart from Waikiki Beach and return to the hotel by the afternoon. Since it was close, I didn't have high expectations, but I was very pleased to see sea turtles both from the boat and in the water. The ocean was also very beautiful! I think parents can feel at ease participating because the staff helped the children onto the boards to see as well!
時間があまりなかったので、近場でシュノーケルできるプランを探していました。ワイキキビーチから出発で午前中にホテルに戻れて、とても満足でした。近いので、あまり期待してなかったですが、船からも海の中でもウミガメを見れて大満足です。
海もとても綺麗でした!
お子様もスタッフがボードの上に乗せて見てくれていたので安心して参加できると思います!
Skydiving was something I had always wanted to try. Since I wanted to do it, I decided to do it in the breathtaking scenery of Hawaii. There was a bit of a delay at the reception, but the staff were very kind and helpful. The instructor was humorous, and it was perfectly fine not to speak any English.
When it was time to jump, there was no hesitation; I was quickly falling out of the plane, regardless of my own will. I felt no fear at all; it was just amazing. After the parachute opened, we made several turns, which caused quite a bit of G-force and made me feel a bit nauseous. I felt a little sick for a while after landing.
Video and photo shooting is a must.
一度はやってみたかったスカイダイビング。
同じやるなら絶景のハワイで、ということでやってきました。
受付で手間取りましたがスタッフの方がとても親切に対応してくれました。
インストラクターの方もユーモアがあり英語が全くしゃべれなくても大丈夫です。
いざジャンプですが躊躇する間もなく自分の意志とは関係なく次々と飛行機から落ちていきます。まったく恐怖はなく、とにかくサイコーです。
パラシュートが開いてからですが何回か旋回をします。この時かなりGがかかり酔います。
着地後しばらく気持ち悪かったです。
ビデオ&写真撮影は必須です。
The local staff were entertaining and kind. There were also people who spoke Japanese on-site, which was reassuring. They provided detailed explanations about facilities like the restrooms, which was helpful for the women!
The thrilling buggy ride was, of course, an exciting experience, but you also get to see breathtaking views that take your breath away. With all the thrills, there are a few rules to follow. If you stick to those, I think you'll have a great time. No reckless behavior is allowed.
It's a popular activity, so I made a reservation a few months in advance! I'm glad I went.
現地のスタッフさんが面白くて、それでいて親切です。現場には日本語ができる方もいて安心でした。お手洗いなどの細かな説明もしてくださり女子は助かりました!
道中はスリルがあるバギー走行体感はもちろんですが、息を呑むほどの絶景を見る事ができます。スリル満点な分、お約束ごともいくつかあります。それをキチンと守ると楽しく過ごせると思います。無茶は厳禁です。
人気のアクティビティなので、数ヶ月前から予約しました!行けてよかったです。
We had activities on a sunny day. Since there was a lot of dust, I think it would be good to have something to cover your eyes, like sunglasses. You can get nice masks on-site. Your clothes and belong
私たちは快晴の日のアクティビティでした。砂埃が凄いので、サングラスなど目を覆うものがあるといいと思います。マスクはいい感じのものが現地でもらえます。服や持ち物が砂を浴びるので、汚れて良い服装で。
The sandbar trip was amazing. Really friendly crew made us feel like Ohana, and provided everything we could ask for. Even though it rained while we were there, our guide found a great place to snorkel and helped the less experienced folks acclimate to their gear. Great experience. We'll do it again and hope for sun!
Don't be afraid to try new things!
Thank you so much for your kind review! We're thrilled to hear that you enjoyed the tour. We would love to welcome you again on future tours whenever you're ready for another adventure!
My wife and I enjoyed the tour of the movie and TV locations. Seeing the actual site of the filming locations was fun. Very beautiful area. The WW2 bunker was very interesting as well.
The trip was a great experience. The boat ride was enjoyable. We sat on the upper deck and got wet which was great for us. The sights were amazing. The food and drink were fantastic. I would recommend this trip and would take it again. The captain and crew were friendly and helpful.
