All Reviews for Top Places to Visit in Hawaii

The meals were plentiful and delicious 😊. The shows featuring Elvis, Michael, and the fire performance were all great. I was also happy to take photos with the cast after the show. It became a wonderful memory of my trip to Hawaii.

食事はボリュームたっぷりで美味しかったです😊ショーはエルビス・マイケル・ファイヤーパフォーマンスといずれも良かっです。ショーの後、キャスト達との写真撮影も嬉しかったです。いいハワイ旅行の思い出になりました。

Going to the summit of Mauna Kea is an incredible experience. It felt like being on Mars and seeing the clouds below you and the sunset felt surreal. We were also lucky enough to see the glow of the lava from the volcano from there. Hawaiian Eyes Tour with Chris was a seamless experience. Chris gave lots of interesting information about the area and took a lot of care with our safety. I highly recommend this experience; it’s well worth the cost!

The show lasted about an hour and a half, but during that time, I didn't get bored at all; I thought it was genuinely fun. The food was all-you-can-eat, so there was plenty of it. I think the taste suits Japanese people as well. Japanese guests were in the minority, though...

ショーは、1時間半くらいでしたが、その間飽きたりせず、普通に(純粋に)楽しいと思います。食事は、食べほなので量は十分あります。味も日本人にも合っていると思います。日本人客は、少数派ですね…

We happened to be the only participants that day, so my wife and I were able to enjoy the wonderful sunset and the starry sky from the summit of Haleakalā in a private-like setting. We also learned some fun techniques for capturing the night sky with an iPhone.

たまたま当日他の参加者なく我々夫婦のみでハレアカラ山頂からの素晴らしい夕陽と満天の星をプライベートプレイスのようなポジションで楽しむことができました。iPhoneでの星空撮影など楽しいテクニックも教えてもらいました。

Minako, who speaks Japanese, was always by our side as our guide, which made us feel very safe and allowed us to enjoy ourselves! We encountered a pod of dolphins twice, and they came right up close, allowing us to see them well. We also encountered turtles and sharks, making for a very memorable experience! Thank you to Captain Brian, guide Sarah, Koha who resembles Bruno Mars, Peter, and Lucas.

日本語が喋れるミナコさんが常につきっきりでガイドしてくださりとても安心して楽しむことができました！
イルカの群れに２回も遭遇できて目の前まで接近してきてよく見れたし、亀とサメにも遭遇してとても思い出深い体験ができました！船長のブライアンさん、ガイドのサラさん、ブルーノマーズ似のコアさん、ピーターさん、ルーカスさんありがとうございました。

The food to the show it was outstanding Hyatt Regency knows how to do it

I attended the Waikiki Luau Hawaiian Show! ✨ Since I had a VIP seat, I was very close to the stage and could see the dancers' powerful performances and expressions clearly, which made me very satisfied. The fire dance was particularly amazing and left the biggest impression on me during the show. The spins and the intensity of the performance exceeded my expectations, and the entire venue was buzzing with excitement.

The buffet didn't have an overwhelming variety, but each dish was delicious, especially the whole roasted pig, which was very tasty.

Additionally, the layout required us to pass between seats to reach the exit, and there were times when people sitting on the aisle were unaware and remained seated comfortably, making it a bit difficult to get through.

Overall, the staff was courteous, and I felt at ease enjoying my first Hawaiian show. Experiencing Hawaiian music and dance up close made for a wonderful time that will be a memorable part of my trip. I highly recommend it for anyone wanting to fully enjoy the Hawaiian atmosphere in Waikiki! 🌺

ワイキキルアウ ハワイアンショーに参加してきました！✨
VIP席だったのでステージがとても近く、ダンサーさんの迫力や表情までしっかり見えて大満足でした。特にファイヤーダンスが本当にすごくて、今回のショーで1番印象に残りました🔥 回転やパフォーマンスの迫力が想像以上で、会場全体も大盛り上がりでした。

ビュッフェは品数が多いという感じではないですが、その分ひとつひとつが美味しく、特に丸ごと豚のローストがとても美味しかったです。

また、席と席の間を通らないと出口に出られない構造になっているのですが、通路側にいても気づかずにゆったり座ったままの方もいて、通りづらいタイミングがあったのは少し気になりました。

全体的にはスタッフの対応も丁寧で、初めてのハワイアンショーでも安心して楽しめました。ハワイらしい音楽やダンスを間近で体験できて、旅行の思い出に残る素敵な時間になりました。ワイキキでハワイ気分を満喫したい方におすすめです🌺

I saw the most amazing sunset of my life at the summit of Mauna Kea! Our guide, James, was very considerate of us, even though we didn't understand much English, and it made for a wonderful trip!

マウナケア山頂で人生で一番素晴らしい夕日を見ました！
ガイドのJamesさんは英語があまりわからない私たちも気にかけてくれてとても良い旅になりました！

I will participate in the Mauna Kea Sunrise Tour guided by Sho-chan. I will definitely return to the Big Island next year or the year after.

ショウちゃんのガイドで、マウナケア　サンライズ　ツアーに、参加します。
来年又は再来年、絶対にハワイ島に帰ってきます。

It wasn't very large, so I was able to explore it on foot.

There were things I wanted to try that I had caught a glimpse of when I had a guide before. I wanted to get a tattoo (there are different designs in Tahiti and Fiji, and sometimes they are not available when you want to do it later), try out an outrigger canoe (it was a smaller area than I expected), watch the haka at a New Zealand show, go fishing (no one caught anything, but it was still fun), and take photos with the villagers. I was able to do all of that.

I also went to a show in Samoa, and the fire knife performance seemed interesting, so I checked it out. The first 15 minutes inside the building was a talk (it was in English, so I didn't understand much), and then everyone was told to go outside! So, the juggling with fire sticks began in the garden, and it might be better to wait outside instead of rushing to get a good seat inside from the start.

It was peaceful, and everyone was kind; I had a wonderful experience.

However, regarding the video data worth $22.50, even after scanning the QR code I received, it just says "processing." I've inquired about it, but even after more than two weeks, it hasn't been sent, so I'm not sure what it is.

それほど広くないので徒歩で十分見て回れました

以前ガイドさんがついてくれた時にチラ見してやってみたいなと思っていたこと
タトゥー（タヒチとフィジーとで柄に違いがある、やっている時とやっていない時があるので後でやろうと思うとできないことがある）アウトリガーカヌー（思ったより狭い範囲だった）、ニュージーランドのショーでハカを観る、釣り（やっぱり誰も釣れないけど楽しい）、村人たちとの写真撮影　等全部できました

サモアでのショー、ファイヤーナイフも面白そうなので行ってみました
建物の中で前半15分はお話（英語なのであまりわからず）その後みんな外へ出ろ♪
ということで庭で火のついた棒のジャグリングが始まるので急いで最初から建物の中の
いい席を取ろうとしないで外で待っていた方がいいかもしれません

のどかでみんなやさしく、楽しい経験ができました

ただ、２２．５ドル相当のビデオデータというのが、いただいたQRコードを読み取っても
只今処理中というばかりで　問い合わせしていますが２週間以上経っても送られてこないのでどういう物なのか不明です

Everyone I met locally was praising it. Since this was my sixth time, including trips to Japan and abroad, I wasn't as moved as others, but considering the weather wasn't great, I still felt it was worth going. I think it would be better to include such fun activities at night, not just hula and fire dancing.

現地で知り合った人達のすべてが、絶賛してました。
私は日本や海外を含めて6度目でしたので、そこまでの感動はありませんでしたが、
天候に恵まれなかったことも含め、行って良かったと思いました。
フラとファイヤーダンスだけで無く、こんな楽しみも夜に入れたほうが良いとは思います

The whole trip from the pick up to the summit was amazing. Our tour guide James was awesome and very informative. Highly recommend making this trip when you are on the island!

There were many participants from various countries on the tour, and this time we were the only Japanese, but we had no particular inconveniences and enjoyed ourselves.

ツアー客は色々な国からの参加者が多く、今回、日本人は我々だけでしたが、
特に不自由することもなく、楽しめました。

There are quite a few ups and downs, and especially the downhill sections can be slippery, so be careful. However, you can work up a nice sweat. The descent is more challenging than Diamond Head due to the steep incline.

結構、UPDOWNがあり、特に下りは滑りやすいので要注意ですが
気持ちの良い汗をかけます。
ダイヤモンドヘッドよりも急こう配なので下りは大変です。

Following Kailua last May, this time we went to Hanauma Bay.

For the local tour, we had the following conditions:
- We wanted to arrive by 7 AM, which is the entrance time.
- We wanted to have a longer stay.
- We have our own snorkeling gear, so we needed a tour that didn't include rental costs.

This is why we chose this tour. On the day of the tour, the weather looked questionable, but they kindly agreed to let us start earlier than the scheduled time, which turned out to be a great decision.

Now, about the sea... While the water clarity was high, the reef was disappointing (more like rocky formations than coral), and there were few fish.

Most importantly, it was shallow! Too shallow. If you try to swim, you might end up getting stuck on the rocks. Therefore, wearing long-sleeve rash guards and leggings is a must, along with gloves and marine shoes (fins would be ideal) to avoid injuries.

On the positive side, I've snorkeled in various seas, but this was the first time I saw a red parrotfish, which is a female of the longfin parrotfish species. Be sure to look for it!

Also, since there was a bit of wind, it would be better to have a simple beach tent with pegs instead of just an umbrella.

昨年5月のカイルアに続き、今回はハナウマ湾へ。
現地ツアーの条件として
　・入場時間である7時には現地に着きたい
　・滞在時間を長めにしたい
　・シュノーケル器材一式あるので、費用に含まれていない事
という事で選んだのが今回のツアー。
当日、天候が怪しくなった為、申込時の時刻から早めてもらう事も快諾いただき、大正解でした。
さて、肝心の海ですが・・・・・・透明度は高いものの、リーフが残念（珊瑚というより岩礁）で魚影も少なく・・・・・
何より浅い！浅過ぎです。無理に泳ごうとすると、岩礁に乗り上げます。
なので、長袖ラッシュ＆レギンスはもちろん、手袋とマリンシューズ（できればフィン）が無いと怪我します。
良かった点として、色んな海でシュノーケルしてますが、初めて紅いブダイを見ました。ナガブダイの雌との事。ぜひ見つけてみて下さい。
それと少し風があるので、パラソルではなく、ペグ付き簡易ビーチテントがあると良いですよ。

It was a very impressive and worthwhile show, just as the reviews said. It's definitely worth seeing at least once. I think the seats in the front and back offer a good view of the whole performance since the venue is quite small. It was completely full, showing how popular it is. I was seated to the side, so my neck got tired.

口コミ通り迫力のある見応えのあるとても良いショーでした。ぜひ一度は見る価値ありますね。前方後ろのほうが全体がよく見えていい席だと思います。会場はこじんまりしているので。満席でした。スゴイ人気なんですね。私は横前だったので首が疲れました。

It's an English tour, but as long as there's one person in the group who understands English, there shouldn't be any problems. (This is because there are explanations about the video on the bus and the meeting times.)

On the way there, we watched a video about entering Hanauma Bay, and the driver shared interesting information about Hawaii. Once we arrived, we were able to pass through the reception quickly since we had already watched the video, and from there, we had free time until the meeting time.

The moment we arrived, the view was incredibly beautiful, and I felt it was worth coming as soon as I saw it. I brought my own snorkeling gear and swam to see the fish. However, there are many rocks in shallow areas, and I got injured while being focused on the fish. Everyone, please be careful.

We took the bus back after 1 PM, and the time flew by. I would love to use this service again when I visit Hawaii next time. It was a lot of fun. Thank you!

英語のツアーですがグループ内に1人英語がわかる人が入れば問題ないです。
(バスの中でのビデオや、集合時間などの説明があるため)
向かっているバスの中で、ハナウマベイに入るためのビデオと、運転手さんがハワイのことを面白く説明してくれました。
着いてからはビデオ鑑賞が済んでいるので受付をすぐに通過でき、そこからは集合時間まで自由時間です。
着いた瞬間にとても綺麗な景色が見えるので最高でした。見た瞬間に来てよかったと思えます。
シュノーケルを持参したので魚を見て泳ぎました。ただ、浅い所に岩が多いので魚に夢中になっていたら怪我をしました。みなさん気を付けて下さい。
帰りは13時過ぎのバスで帰ったのですが、時間はあっという間でした。
次ハワイに訪れた際も利用したいです。
楽しかったです。ありがとうございます。

The Te Au Moana Luau at the Wailea Marriott was a wonderful way to celebrate New Year’s Day in Maui. The oceanfront setting was beautiful, especially at sunset, and the premium seating gave us a great view of the entire stage and performances.

The morning departure was worth it for the calm waters and clear visibility at Molokini Crater, where we saw an incredible variety of tropical fish and coral.

Overall, this is an excellent option for anyone wanting an easy, affordable, and meaningful visit to Pearl Harbor.

The 5:00 AM pickup made it easy to reach the trail before the crowds and heat, and the sunrise views from the summit were absolutely worth the early wake-up with rewarding panoramic views of Waikiki and the coastline at the top.

We visited the North Shore with its beautiful beaches and surf spots, drove along the east side with coastal views, and stopped at the Dole Plantation for delicious pineapple treats and souvenirs.

The cage was secure and the guides stayed nearby the entire time to ensure everyone was comfortable. We saw several sharks circling which made the experience even more incredible.

The waves at Kaanapali Beach were perfect for learning, and everyone in our group was able to stand up and catch a few waves.

Each village offered something unique, with engaging demonstrations, performances, and friendly staff who shared their traditions and stories.

The Mauna Kea Stargazing Tour with Epic Tours was an unforgettable experience and one of the most memorable nights of our Hawaii trip. The set up telescopes and explanation of everything was an engaging and easy-to-understand way of seeing Mauna Kea

The scenery was just breathtaking, with views of the mountains and valleys used in many films. As well, our guide was friendly sharing interesting facts about the ranch and movie history along the way.

Our guide was engaging and shared interesting behind-the-scenes stories that made the tour. The 90-minute duration as well was perfect to see the highlights without feeling rushed

Everything was well organized, and the pace of the tour was perfect for enjoying the scenery and taking photos. A great choice for anyone looking for a calm, scenic, and culturally meaningful activity on Oahu.

Flying along the Na Pali Coast gave us incredible views of cliffs, valleys, waterfalls, and hidden beaches that you can’t see any other way.
