Upon entering, we first went to put our luggage in a locker. It's located immediately to the left after passing through the gate. The large locker was $18 and the small one was $13. Since there were four of us in the family and we had four bath towels, we opted for the large locker. It was just big enough to fit all our belongings. The payment for the locker is done using a machine in front, which also offers a Japanese language option, making it easy to understand without confusion. However, if you pay in cash, be careful as the machine shows how much change you will receive, and it seems that it won't give more than that amount.
I read in reviews that it's best to have lunch right after entering, so we had lunch first. The staff at the food stand were friendly and kind, confirming our order two or three times, but as others have mentioned, they were quite laid-back. When we passed by during lunchtime, there were more than ten people in line, so I thought it would take a while at that pace.
I noticed that the schedule for each attraction wasn't posted at the entrance, which was a bit surprising, but on the day we visited, all attractions were operating without breaks. Since it was a Monday, it wasn't crowded, and we were able to enjoy unlimited rides smoothly. It was thrilling, and the kids (a 2nd-year middle schooler and a 3rd-year high schooler) were very happy and had a great time.
I personally would love to go again.
入場して、まず荷物をロッカーに入れに行きました。ゲートを入ってすぐ左手にあります。大18ドル、小13ドルでした。私たちは、家族4人でバスタオルも4枚持っていたので大にしました。全部の荷物がギリギリ入る大きさでした。ロッカーの清算は、前にある自販機のようなものでします。日本語も選べて分かりやすく迷う事もありませんでした。しかし現金で払う場合は、お釣りがあと何ドル出るのか表示されていて、それ以上のおつりが出ないようなので気をつけて下さい。
口コミで、入場したらすぐにランチを食べた方がいいと書かれていたので、まずランチを食べました。売店の方は、愛想はよく親切で2、3回注文を確認してくれましたが、みなさんが書かれている通り、のんびりとしていました。お昼の時間に前を通ったら10人以上は並んでいたので、あの調子だと時間がかかるだろうなと思いました。
各アトラクションのスケジュールが玄関に掲示されてなく、あれ?と思いましたが、私たちが行った日は、全部のアトラクションが休憩することなく行われていて、月曜日ということもあり混雑することもなく、乗り放題で順調に全部のものに乗れました。スリルがあり子供たち(中学2年、高校3年)もとても楽しかったと喜んでいました。
私自身もまた行きたいなと思います。

In the morning, when I went out to the hotel entrance before the pickup time, the shuttle bus was already there. After confirming my name, they wrapped a paper with the return bus number and time around my wrist. The guide seemed to only speak English and informed us that there would be an explanation from a Japanese-speaking guide once we arrived. The pickup time was 9:35 AM, and the bus departed at 9:43 AM. We arrived smoothly around 10:25 AM without getting caught in traffic.
Upon arrival, a guide who spoke Japanese provided explanations. They checked names in order while handing out tickets for entry. Although they said the e-voucher was not necessary, it was confirmed, so it was smoother for those who had it, even though some did not.
At the entrance, they checked our bags, and it seems that no food or drinks were allowed except for one unopened bottle of water per person. The day was enjoyable and passed by in no time.
朝、ピックアップの時間前にホテルの玄関に出ると迎えのバスはもう着いていました。
名前を確認してもらい、帰りのバスナンバーと時間が印刷された紙を手首に巻いてくれました。このガイドの方は、英語しか出来ないようで、着いたら日本語のガイドさんから説明がありますよというようなことを教えてくれました。ピックアップ時間が9時35分 バス出発が9時43分でした。現地までは、渋滞に巻き込まれることもなく、スムーズに10時25分くらいに到着しました。
到着すると日本語の出来るガイドの方が説明をしてくれました。名前を順番に確認しながら、チケットを受け取って中に入場しました。eバウチャーはいらないということでしたが、一応、確認されますので、持っていない方もいらっしゃいましたが、持っていた方がスムーズにいきます。

There were about 40 people on the tour, including two groups of us (four people). The yacht hardly swayed, so I don't think there's any worry about seasickness. Cocktails were poured from a large bottle, and with the excitement, I ended up having three refills. We even spotted whales offshore, and the sunset was amazing. I also made friends with a family of four from Australia. The two hours flew by. I definitely want to participate again next time.

It's a zipline experience in a beautiful farm that stretches as far as the eye can see. I was torn between this and Kualoa, but considering just the zipline, I think this was the better choice. In between ziplines, you cross suspension bridges and climb ropes. Since this place focuses solely on ziplining, if you want to combine it with other activities like horseback riding or jeeping, Kualoa might be a better option. When I went, there were no staff who spoke Japanese, and I was the only Japanese person, but the staff and other participants were friendly. According to the cheerful bus driver, there were even Japanese grandmothers who couldn't speak any English but participated using gestures. Since I was there alone, a family of five from Australia looked out for me, and other American participants often struck up conversations. Even if your English is limited, it's perfectly fine to initiate conversation or ask the staff for help when needed.
見渡す限り広がる美しい農場の中でのジップラインです。クアロアと迷いましたが、ジップラインだけで考えると、こちらで良かったと思います。ジップラインの合間に、吊り橋を渡ったり、登り棒ならぬ登り紐を登ったりします。ここは、ジップラインだけを遂行しているので、乗馬やジープなど、他のアクティビティと合わせたい場合は、クアロアが良いかもしれません。私が行った時は、日本語が話せるスタッフは辞めてしまっていて、日本人も私だけでしたが、スタッフや回りの参加者はフレンドリーでした。陽気なバスの運転手さんによると、英語が全く話せない日本人のお婆さん達も身振り手振りで参加したりしていたみたいです。私は、一人参加でしたので、オーストラリアの家族5人が気にかけてくれて、他のアメリカ人参加者もよく話かけてくれました。片言でも、自分から話かけたり、助けて欲しい時は遠慮なくスタッフに声をかければ大丈夫ですよ。

I participated thinking it would be a Valentine's gift. As others mentioned, there were many foreign participants (mostly from Europe and America), and there were fewer Asians, but I actually enjoyed the overseas atmosphere even more because of that.
All the explanations were in English, but I had no trouble at all. The captain and staff were very friendly, making jokes to entertain the guests and engaging in conversation, creating a very welcoming atmosphere!
On the day of the tour, it was unusually rainy in Hawaii, and with strong winds, we could hardly see the sunset, which is the highlight of the tour. The waves were a bit high, so some guests who were not good on boats felt unwell. (The staff's response at that time was quick and left a good impression.) I’m not very good on boats either, but I managed to be okay. In the end, just as the sun was setting, the clouds parted slightly, allowing us to see a beautiful sunset, which was very moving. It was a memorable moment.
You can take wonderful photos on the boat and enjoy the scenery, so I recommend this for those looking for a gift or a memorable experience like I was!
バレンタインのプレゼントに…と思って参加しました。他の方が言っていた通り、外国の方の参加率が多く(しかも欧米の方が多い)、アジア人は少なめではありますが、逆にその方が私は海外気分をより味わえて良かったです。
説明も全て英語でしたが、困ることはありませんでした。キャプテン、スタッフの方がとても気さくな方なので、お客さんをジョークで笑わせたり、一緒に話をしたりして、とてもフレンドリーな雰囲気でした!
当日はハワイ では珍しく一日中雨で、風も強かったため、ツアーの醍醐味であるサンセットがほとんど見られず、波も少し高かったので、船に弱い方が体調を崩されてました。(その時のスタッフの対応は迅速で好印象でした。)私もあまり船は得意ではないのですが、何とか大丈夫でした。最後、本当に陽が落ちる時、わずかに雲が切れてくれて、とても綺麗な夕日を見ることが出来、とても感動しました。思い出に残るワンシーンでした。
船上でステキな写真も撮れるし、景色も見られるし、私のようにプレゼントや何かの記念になるオプションを探している方にオススメです!

It was my first-ever skydiving challenge! My husband was a bit nervous, but I was excited the whole time while preparing on the ground.
I've never done bungee jumping because it's terrifying to jump alone, but with skydiving, the instructor is right behind you controlling everything, so I felt safe participating! We boarded the helicopter in small groups and off we went into the sky! It gets chilly up there, so long sleeves and pants are a must.
When jumping out of the helicopter, some might feel a moment of fear, but I was fine. The free fall lasted about a minute, and while the wind pressure made it a bit hard to breathe, once the parachute opened, I was captivated by the beauty of the scenery. The instructor asked if it was okay to spin around, but I had told him to do it just once, so I enjoyed it gracefully! My husband, on the other hand, seemed to have spun quite a bit and ended up feeling a bit nauseous.
However, I definitely think it's better to do it than to be too scared to try! If you can communicate with the instructor, it will surely become a wonderful memory!
人生初‼️のスカイダイビング挑戦でした(^^)
主人はちょっとビビってましたが、私はずっと陸で準備をしながらワクワクしっぱなし。
バンジージャンプは1人だし、踏み切るまでが恐怖でしかない(笑)ので、やったこともありませんが、スカイダイビングはインストラクターがしっかり後ろでコントロールしてくれるので、委ねれば大丈夫と思い参加しました!
数人毎のグループでヘリに乗りこみ、いざ空へ!上空は冷えますから長袖長ズボン必須です。
ヘリから飛び出す時は、一瞬ヒヤッとする方もいるかもしれませんが、私は大丈夫でした。
1分間ほどのフリーフォールは、風圧でちょっと息苦しさはありましたが、パラシュートが開いてからはもう景色の美しさに目を奪われました♡インストラクターが、クルクル回しても良いか?と聞いてきましたが、1回だけにしてと伝えてあったので、私は優雅に楽しみました!
が、主人はかなり回されたようで、酔ってしまっていましたね(笑)
でも、ビビってやらないよりは絶対やった方が良いと思います!
インストラクターとコミュニケーションが取れたら、とっても素敵な思い出になるはずです❣️

We had a wonderful time on the trip. The snorkel is the first part of the event. There were numerous fish and handful of large turtles. Then there is a brief sail around the area. On our sail we encountered humpback whales and a massive pod of dolphins.
I realize, to a degree the whole adventure is a crap shoot. Someone that encountered no turtles, whales, or dolphins might rate the trip less highly, but we felt this was well worth our time and highly recommend.

Neither I nor my wife had been horseback riding before. The folks here were friendly, had everything necessary ready to go, and the horses were docile and we'll trained. Only complaint was that the porta-potty available was pretty revolting. There wasn't much guiding of the horse required as they knew the way and we're motivated by dinner upon return.

It was a little hard to get to (the hotels are so close together) so remember to get there early! We got there just in time. The boat is beautiful docked on the beach. The crew were so wonderful and friendly. We saw a bunch of turtles! It was amazing when they would surface for air RIGHT NEXT TO US! I wish the water was clearer, but it was still a great experience. Then we got to lounge in the boat and sail over off of Diamond Head. We saw spinner dolphins spinning out of the water. There were about 10 other people on the boat with us, but still cozy. They offer free snacks and you can purchase drinks (water, juice and alcohol) on the boat. We were back in time to join my family for lunch! perfect morning excursion at a great price!

Dear Tomorin,
Thank you for joining our tour with six people. The conditions on that day were perfect, with calm waves and great visibility, so we took you out to the open water. Right after we set out, we spotted a turtle. After returning your friend who wasn't feeling well back to the beach, we headed out again. We saw another turtle at Witch's, and before heading back inside, we encountered yet another turtle at Black Point. It was a truly lucky day to see turtles at every stop!
We hope to see you again on another tour when you visit Hawaii.
Thank you very much. Mahalo!!

You can make a reservation from the Kualoa website, but I was anxious about entering my credit card information on a first-time and overseas site, so I booked through this site from Japan. I scheduled my reservation for 10:45.
On the day of the visit, I purchased a one-day pass for THE BUS from Waikiki and took the No. 8 bus to Ala Moana Center around 8 AM. I got off at Ala Moana Bl + Ala Moana Center and took the No. 55 bus from the bus stop right in front. After about 1 hour and 30 minutes, I arrived at Kamehameha Hwy + Opp Kualoa Ranch at 9:30.
I passed through the front shop and handed my voucher at a kind of general counter. The lady at the reception said, "Eleven forty," and I thought, "11:45? But my reservation is for 10:45!" I kept saying, "No! Ten forty!" but she kept responding with "Eleven forty." I was frustrated, but since I could only speak basic English, I had no choice but to back down. I spent a wasted two hours eating a hamburger in the cafeteria and taking pictures with horses.
At 11:45, there was a simple horseback riding explanation in Japanese video. We started riding around noon, wandering through the mountains. It was a mountain and sea course for one hour, but mostly on mountain paths. However, it was a fun hour.
The weather was just right for this time of year, and I was perfectly fine in a short-sleeved shirt, shorts, and sneakers. However, it might be cold if it rains. Also, be careful as the raincoats they lend you are dirty.
I thought the start time was strange, and when I returned to the hotel and checked the voucher on the site, it said, "Check-In Time: 10:45." In small letters above it, it said, "Kualoa Ranch Horseback Ride/11:45." The receptionist was correct!
However, I was sure I had booked for 10:45 on VELTRA, so I checked the Kualoa Ranch page on the VELTRA site.
When I clicked on the start time of 10:45 on the application screen, it said, "Check in at the Kualoa Ranch ticket office at 10:15," "Enjoy your horseback riding time at 10:45," "There will be a Japanese video briefing," and "Activity ends at 11:45."
Something seems off...
...I got it!
When you book for 10:45, the voucher's Check-In Time becomes 10:15, and if the start time on the site is 11:45, then the voucher's Check-In Time becomes 10:45.
It’s unclear whether there was a communication issue from VELTRA to Kualoa or if my reservation for 10:45 was full and pushed to 11:45. If the card you receive in exchange for the voucher is for 11:45, then after going to the stables at 11:45 and a 10-minute explanation, the horseback riding time would be from 12:00 to 1:00.
The horseback riding and atmosphere were ★★★★★, the cafeteria was not clean ★★★, the price of $88 without transportation was too high ★★, and the man at the entrance information counter could speak a little Japanese ★★★.
With 1.5 hours of bus travel + 2 hours of waiting + 1.5 hours of horseback riding (including explanation) + 1.5 hours of bus travel + 0.5 hours of bus waiting, the total is 7 hours! Just one hour of horseback riding took 7 hours! Considering the precious travel time, the cost performance is ★. Overall ★★.
The bus indeed takes time.
It might be best to rent a car and visit Kualoa + Polynesian + North Shore in the morning, or Kualoa + Kailua (Lanikai) + Sea Life Park + Blowhole in the morning.
I apologize for the lengthy message.

「10:45 乗馬での楽しい時間をお過ごしください。」
「日本語ビデオのブリーフィング(説明)があります。」
「11:45 アクティビティ終了」

…わかりました!
開始時刻10:45で申し込むとVOUCHERのCheck-In Timeが10:15になり、
サイトの開始時刻を11:45とするとVOUCHERのCheck-In Timeが10:45になるワケ。
VELTRAからクアロアへの伝わり方に問題があるのか、
10:45開始の予約がいっぱいで11:45にまわされたのか不明です。
VOUCHERと引き換えに貰うカードが11:45なら、
11:45に馬小屋に行き約10分の説明後、
12時から13時までの1時間が乗馬TIMEとなります。
乗馬と雰囲気は☆5

It was our first trip to Hawaii for our honeymoon. We used this tour to visit Kualoa Ranch, which has been a filming location for Jurassic Park and many other movies! Compared to many other tour companies, this one was more affordable, and the experience was the same.
We boarded a large bus at the pickup location (our hotel) in the morning, and since it was early, everyone on the bus was sleeping. During the ride, we filled out a survey for our desired activities, and upon arrival, we were given a schedule for the day. Each person then went to the designated meeting points for their chosen activities.
We chose the movie location tour, jungle exploration, and ocean voyage tour. On the movie location tour, we were able to take photos next to that famous tree from Jurassic Park. The Japanese explanations at various filming points were very clear and helpful. The jungle exploration was guided in English, but it was still enjoyable even with a basic understanding! Here, we were taken to several filming locations, which were different from those on the movie location tour, and personally, I found this part to be even more impressive. The ocean voyage involved getting on a boat and heading out to sea, where we saw many sea turtles, which was truly satisfying. Unfortunately, the weather was cloudy, so it would have been even more amazing if it had been sunny!
Horseback riding and the buggies also looked like a lot of fun. I would love to use this tour again!
新婚旅行でのはじめてのハワイでした。
ジュラシックパーク、ワールドや数々の映画のロケ地になっているクアロアランチにこちらのツアーを利用して行ってきました!たくさんのツアー会社のものと比較してもこちらの方が割安!体験内容も変わりありません。
朝迎えの大型バスにピックアップ場所(滞在ホテルでした)で乗り込み、クアロアランチへ。朝早いのもありバスの中はみんな寝ています。バスの中で希望するアクティビティのアンケートを取り、現地に到着した際に1日の予定表を渡され、各自で各アクティビティの集合場所に行き体験するといった感じでした。
我々は、映画ロケ地ツアーとジャングル探検、オーシャンボヤージツアーを選択。映画ロケ地ツアーではジュラシックパークで有名なあの木の側で写真が撮れます。また様々な撮影ポイントで日本語の説明をしてくれるのでとてもわかりやすかったです。ジャングル探検では英語ガイドでしたがなんとなくの理解でも楽しめます!ここでも数カ所ロケ地に案内されますが、どれもロケ地ツアーとは別のところで個人的にはこちらの方が凄かったです。オーシャンボヤージも船にのり海に出ますが、船上からウミガメが沢山見れ本当に満足いくものでした。天気があいにくの曇り空でしたので、晴れていたらもっと素晴らしかったことでしょう!
乗馬や、バギーもとても楽しそうでした。また利用させていただきたいです。

It was my first trip to Hawaii for my honeymoon. There were places we couldn't visit during this trip, so we decided to see them from the sky and signed up for a tour. It was the right choice! The weather was clear, and while Hawaii is beautiful from the ground, seeing it from above was even more stunning and truly a wonderful experience. The pilot was also a lovely person, providing excellent service. They frequently checked in with us, asking if everything was good or okay, and even though I don't speak much English, there was so much that was communicated through the atmosphere. I chose the option without a window, but I really felt the wind and the grandeur, which I highly recommend. It was a tour I would love to use again!
新婚旅行でのはじめてのハワイでした。今回の旅では回りきれない所があり、どうせだったら空から見てしまおうとツアーに申し込みました。正解でした!天気は快晴、地上から見るハワイももちろん素敵ですが、上空からみるそれは更に素敵で本当に素晴らしい体験になりました。パイロットも素敵な方で、サービス満点でした。度々good?とかok?とかこちらを気遣ってくれ、英語があまり喋らなくても雰囲気で伝わるものが沢山ありました。今回窓なしをチョイスしましたが直に感じる風だったり壮大さは本当に感じられ、オススメしたいポイントです。

This was my second trip to Hawaii, and this time I was excited to add my son for our first family trip to Hawaii. I quickly signed up for the Rock-a-Hula show. To be honest, I was anxious about what kind of show it would be and whether the meal would be satisfactory, but those worries were completely unnecessary. It was truly the best show and dinner, creating wonderful memories.
The venue is located in the heart of Honolulu, inside the Royal Hawaiian Center, so we arrived without getting lost. When I showed the voucher at the reception, they gave me a backstage tour pass to hang around my neck. At the entrance, the performers welcomed us with hula. The backstage tour was about to start. The manager himself passionately explained the costume room and dressing rooms (in English, but I could understand it somehow!).
They took us to Elvis's dressing room, where we enjoyed a welcome drink and snacks. While we were there, Elvis made an appearance! He took individual photos with us. The commemorative photos taken here are given to you at the end along with a mount, so make sure to take a picture in your favorite outfit with a smile!
After finishing the backstage tour, it was time for dinner. We were guided to seats right in front of the stage, and I was immediately impressed by the location. There were already dinner-only guests seated, but our seats were in a prime location closer to the stage. I was worried about the quantity and taste of the dinner, but both the volume and flavor were excellent. Even my wife, who isn't fond of American steak, finished her meal without any issues. Around that time, guests who were there for the show only were being seated in the stand. Being a few steps closer to the stage than them gave us a slight sense of superiority. Soon, the show began. First was Elvis, then MJ, and finally Katy Perry, with a seamless flow of dance and song that showed they had practiced well. I also got to know the people sitting next to us, and we had a great conversation. By chance, an elderly couple was sitting next to us, and when I talked to them, I learned that they visit Hawaii almost every year and come to see the Rock-a-Hula show each time. They mentioned that the performers and the lineup change every time, so they never get bored.
Before I knew it, the show was over, but as we headed to the exit, the performers came to see us off and happily took photos with us. The manager also casually chatted with us, and I could really feel that all the staff were dedicated to ensuring that the guests were satisfied. I don't know when I will be able to come again, but I definitely plan to return the next time I visit Hawaii.
人生2度目のハワイ、今回は息子を加えての初の家族でのハワイ旅行に気合を入れ、早々とロック・ア・フラショーに申し込みをしました。正直、どんなショーなのか? 食事は満足できるのか? 不安を抱えて当日を迎えましたが、全くの無駄な心配でした。本当に最高のショー&ディナー、素晴らしい思い出になりました。
会場はホノルルの中心、ロイヤルハワイアンセンターの中なので迷うことなく到着できました。受付でバウチャーを見せるとバックステージツアーのパスを首からぶら下げてくれます。入り口ではパフォーマー達がフラで出迎えてくれます。いよいよバックステージツアーのスタートです。バックステージツアーは支配人自ら衣裳部屋や楽屋など、熱弁で説明してくれます。(英語ですが、何となく伝わってきます!)
エルビスの楽屋に連れて行ってくれ、そこでウェルカムドリンク&お摘みをいただきます。と言っている間に、エルビスが登場! 個々に記念撮影をしてくれます。ここで撮影した記念写真は最後に台紙とともにプレゼントしてくれますので、お気に入りのファッションと笑顔で撮影してもらいましょう!
バックステージツアーを終えると、ディナーの開始です。ディナーはステージ目の前の席を案内され、まずはその場所に感動します。
バックステージツアーには参加されないディナーオンリーのお客様がすでに着席されていましが、彼らよりステージに近い特等席です。ディナーの量や味も不安でしたが、ボリュームも味も文句なし、アメリカンなステーキが苦手な奥さんも難なく完食です。そのころ、スタンド席にショーオンリーのお客様が案内され着席されていきます。彼らより数段ステージに近い私達は若干の優越感を感じます。程なくショーのスタートです。まずはエルビス、そしてMJ、最後にケイティペリーという構成、全く間を開けずにダンス&歌、よく練習されている感じが伝わります。隣席の方々とも仲良くなり話も弾みます。今回はたまたま隣席にご年配のご夫婦が居られましたが、話を聞くと毎年のようにハワイに訪れており、その都度ロック・ア・フラショーを見に来られるそうです。毎回出演者や構成が変わるので、飽きることは無いそうです。
あっという間にショーも終わってしまいましたが、出口に向かうと出演者がお見送りしてくれ、写真も快く一緒に撮影してくれます。支配人も気さくに声をかけてくれ、兎に角スタッフ全員が来場者に満足してもらおうという気持ちを物凄く感じました。また次にいつ来れるか、わかりませんが次にハワイに来た時にも必ず来ようと思いました。
Thank you very much for visiting us. We are very pleased to hear that you enjoyed your time here. We sincerely look forward to welcoming you back when you visit Hawaii again.
この度はご来場頂きまして、誠に有難うございます。楽しめて頂けたご様子で、私共も大変嬉しく思っております。またハワイにお越しの際には、ご来場頂けますよう、スタッフ一同心よりお待ち申し上げます。

It was harder than I expected.
Before reaching the starting point, there was a place where I had to climb about 5 meters using a rope with just my arm strength, and that was quite tough. Once you get used to the zip line, there's not much effort required, so while sliding, you just need to lift your legs, making it not too strenuous. Since most participants were from the United States, the explanations in English were native-level, and I sometimes missed important points, realizing later what they meant through my own experience. In that sense, it was quite challenging.
It was my first experience with the zip line, and I enjoyed it very much! It was truly thrilling! My knees were shaking on the first one. I would definitely recommend it to everyone.
I should mention that it uses more physical strength than you might imagine, and the English can be difficult. Also, while you can bring cameras or phones at your own risk, they can fall out of your pockets, and you won't be able to retrieve them easily, so it's better to attach a strap to secure them.
予想以上にハードでした。
スタート地点に到達するまでに1回、5mくらいの櫓までロープ1本を使って腕の力で登る場所があり、これはかなりきつかったです。ジップラインは慣れてしまえば、力を入れるところはないので、滑っている間足を上げているくらいでそれほどつらくはありません。参加者はほぼ米国出身の方が多い会だったためか、説明の英語がネイティブで重要な説明点なども聞き逃すこともあり、自分で体験してなるほどこういうことを言ってたのか、と思ったりすることがありました。そういう意味でも結構ハードでした。
ジップラインは初めての経験だったのでとても楽しめました!まさにスリル!最初の1本は膝が震えました。皆さんにお進めしたいです。
想像以上に体力を使う点と英語が難しいことはお知らせしておきます。あとカメラや携帯の持参は自己責任で持ち込み可能ですが、ポケットから落ちることがあり、さらには拾いにいけるような場所には落ちませんので、紐をつけて自分に固定できるようにして持って行った方が良いですよ。

This was the most amazing experience. I would definitely recommend this. To start with, the pick-up and drop off provided was punctual and hassle free. The driver and guide on the bus were very informative and friendly. On arrival communication was perfect and our day went amazing. The Luau dinner was fantastic and definitely worth it adding to the day. The Night Show was the best thing we did while in Hawaii and the seats were great.
The guide we had for the day got us through all the main attractions and was absolutely amazing.
The only advice I would give is to allow extra time to return the following day (additional entry is provided) as there is just so much to see there.

We had a nice day out. The kayaking trip was nice, not strenuous at all and fun to go with. It was just us two with our guide who took us out to a small rock island known for nesting birds. We didn't see any as we were there at the wrong time of year. It was still nice to have a little wander around. The guide was informative and flexible and took us for a kayak showing us a local beach After spending a couple hours kayaking we returned our kayaks and they provided two bikes and some snorkelling gear which was nice was to spend the remainder of our afternoon. Pick-up was punctual and hassle free. The staff were very friendly. Would definitely recommend. If you're after something a bit more challenging though, they do also do a longer guided tour to some cool looking island a bit further away.

There are various thrilling slides that are very American, and even adults can enjoy them. Also, you can't slide while wearing flip-flops, so they're not needed in the park. The paid lockers are convenient as you can open and close them freely. Outside food is not allowed, but you can bring in water.
Unfortunately, it was quite windy and cold during this visit, so I couldn't enjoy it to the fullest. Next time, I want to go on a warm day.
アメリカらしい迫力があるスライダーが色々あって、大人でも楽しめました。
また、ビーチサンダルは履いて滑ることができないので、園内では不要です。
有料ロッカーは開閉自由なので便利でした。
食品は持ち込み不可ですが、水は持ち込めます。
今回はあいにく風が強くて寒かったので、めいっぱい遊ぶことができなかったのが残念です。。
次回行くときは、暖かい日に行きたいです。

I previously boarded the smaller one, but this time it's the larger one. The cabin is spacious, so I was able to see both sides. I think if there were a system like scattering food from a submarine, we could see many more fish.
以前小さいほうに搭乗しましたが、今回は大きいほう。艦内が広いので両側を見ることができました。潜水艦から餌を撒くような仕組みがあればもっと沢山の魚が見れると思う。

Shortly after setting sail, we could see the hotels in Waikiki and Diamond Head, and we enjoyed the view from the sea. The ship was large, and there was no rocking, so there was no worry about seasickness.
For lunch, we were served turkey sandwiches and roast beef sandwiches, which were delicious.
At that moment, we were able to see four whales about 5 meters from the ship.
出航 してから間もなく、ワイキキのホテルやダイアモンドヘッドが見えて、海からの景色も楽しむことが出来ます。 船も大きく、揺れもありません。船酔いの心配ありません。
ランチで用意されていた。ターキーサンドとローストビーフサンドは、美味しいです。
そんな時に、4頭のクジラが船から5m ぐらいのところで観ることが出来ました。

The staff really got everyone excited, and although there were no other Japanese people besides us, we had a great time with the other passengers (mostly Westerners)!
It was quite cold, so I wish I had dressed warmly for the event.
スタッフが、とても盛り上げてくれて、日本人は私達以外見当たらなかったけど、他の同乗者(殆ど欧米人)とも楽しく過ごせて、良かった!
結構寒かったので、しっかり防寒して参加すれば良かった。

Diving from more than twice the height of 2100m, which I experienced 20 years ago, was amazing!
This time, my daughter insisted that she absolutely wanted to do it, so I never thought I would experience skydiving again. I hesitated a bit since I'm not young anymore, but I'm glad I did it! Age doesn't matter when it comes to having fun. The staff were also very friendly and made it enjoyable.
20年前に2100mを体験した時よりも倍以上の高さからのダイビングは素晴らしかった!
今回、娘が絶対やりたいというので、まさかまたスカイダイビングを経験するとは思っていなかったし、もう若くないのでちょっと躊躇したけど、やって良かった!楽しむのに年齢は関係ないという事ですね。
スタッフもとても気さくで楽しませてくれました。
