English brush-up 英語ブラッシュアップ

Reviewed by: イタリア

The tour had almost no Japanese participants. The guidance and explanations were in English, and with our English skills, we could only understand about 20-30%. However, the fun conversations with our driver and guide, Marlon, created a bright atmosphere in the vehicle, and he kindly spoke to us in Japanese as well, which made us feel at ease. The bus was a comfortable sightseeing bus equipped with a restroom, and we thoroughly enjoyed a whirlwind tour of Oahu from early morning (the hotel pickup was great)!

参加者は日本人がほぼいないツアーでした。案内､説明など英語で私達の英語力では２～３割やっと理解出来る感じ。でもドライバー兼ガイド？のMARLONの楽しい会話で車内は明るい雰囲気で､私達には親切に日本語でも話しかけてくれたので安心でした😌
バスはトイレ完備の観光バス;🚌;で快適､早朝から(ホテルpic upは良かった)弾丸ツアーでオアフ島を満喫出来ました❗

It depends on the guide. 案内人によると思います。

Reviewed by: アロハ

The guide was a Japanese person who only talked about their favorite topics like politics, religion, and architecture, and it felt like they wanted to end the tour quickly. We arrived back at the hotel at 4:30 PM, earlier than scheduled. Since we paid to see this, I wished they would have increased our stay time and stuck to the original schedule. I also asked to see the balance rock shown in the posted photos, but my request was declined due to complaints from the neighbors. The poor service made me feel hesitant about giving a tip.

案内人は政治や宗教、建築などの自分の好きな話ばかりする日本人で、早く帰路につきたい気持ちが伝わってきました。帰りは予定より早い16時半にホテル到着。
お金を払って観に来ているのだから、滞在時間を増やすなど、定刻どおりのスケジュールにして欲しかったのと、投稿写真にあるバランスロックを見たいと相談したが、近隣からの苦情を理由に案内を断られました。サービス悪いのでチップ払うのも微妙な気持ちになりました。

English and Japanese guide 英語と日本語のガイド

Reviewed by: miya

It must be tough for the guide to manage both English and Japanese, but it's tiring for us listening as well. I had a similar tour before, but there were about 10 people, so we could take our time. I wanted to see the surfers riding the waves at the North Shore. I think it's strange to expect tips. It's quite an expensive tour... I've participated in various tours before, but this one was quite disappointing.

Visiting memories at the Nu'uanu Pali Lookout ヌウアヌ・パリ展望台に思い出を訪ねて

Reviewed by: Galaxon Blue

I searched for a tour to the Nu'uanu Pali Lookout to experience the strong winds and scenery that surprised me during my honeymoon 26 years ago, but I could only find this one, which was in English, so I signed up.
The Nu'uanu Pali Lookout was still as windy as ever. It brought back memories, and I was overwhelmed with emotion.
The Byodoin Temple looked a bit shabby to someone who knows the real one in Uji, Kyoto, but its presence standing in the tropical rainforest was interesting in its own way.
I should have done proper research on which shops to aim for in Haleiwa Town. However, even with a spontaneous approach, I managed to encounter unexpected deliciousness and fun.
When I ordered soft serve ice cream at the Dole Plantation, the portion was so large that even my husband and I couldn't finish it. An American elderly couple sitting at the same table was struggling with it too. The pineapple flavor was incredibly delicious.
I only passed through downtown, but since it’s a business district, it seemed completely deserted on Saturday.
Returning to Waikiki and reflecting on the journey, I felt the "smallness" of Oahu. This is the Hawaiian Islands, needless to say.

新婚旅行時に驚かされた強風と景観を26年ぶりに感じたくてヌウアヌ・パリ展望台に行くツアーを探したけれど、これしか見つからず、英語のみでしたが、申し込みました。
そのヌウアヌ・パリ展望台は、相変わらず強風。思い出が蘇り感無量でした。
平等院は、京都宇治の本物を知る身にはしょぼく見えましたが、熱帯雨林の中に立つ姿はそれなりに面白いです。
ハレイワタウンは、どの店を目指すか下調べをきちんとしておくべきでした。しかし、行き当たりばったりでも何とかなり、思わぬ美味しさと楽しさに出合えました。　　
ドールプランテーションでソフトクリームを注文したら、夫婦2人でも食べ切れないほどの量。同じテーブルに座ったアメリカンな老夫婦も苦労していました。パイン風味がすごく美味しかったです。
ダウンタウンは通過しただけですが、ビジネスタウンなので土曜日は人っ子ひとりいないようでした。
ワイキキへ戻って来て、道程を振り返り、オアフ島の「小ささ」を感じました。ここはハワイ諸島なんですね、言うまでもなく。

Waimea Valley Guided Hiking Tour, Waterfall Swim, Lunch & Dole Plantation

Waimea Valley and Dole

Reviewed by: The Reynolds

We had a wonderful experience as a family of 10 on our tour to Waimea Valley! The breakfast was a great start! Our tour guide, Jason, was full of great facts as we drove along the way to our destinations! Weimea definitely exceeded my expectations in beauty! Jason shared facts about the flora and fauna surrounding us. The walked is paved but does have some inclines along the way. The walk was great for the whole family but my elderly parents had to move slower behind the group at their own pace. The waterfall was perfect. There is “audience style seating” for families to sit if not swimming and to place items. Life jackets are required and provided which was nice and the life guards that are on duty are very helpful. The tour gives 30 minutes to enjoy the waterfall swimming which was a great amount of time. Lunch was then given after a walk back to the entrance of Waimea. Although lunch is provided and was very good- for picky eaters or hungry along the way- there are snack bars and a walk up style restaurant to order other food.
After leaving Waimea we went to Dole where we had plenty of time to walk around the gift shop and enjoy our Dole Whip. This tour was a hit with the family and definitely would recommend it!

Oahu Island Experience Tour - North Shore, East Side, Dole Pineapple & More

Hang Loose, and slight disappointment

Reviewed by: Harriet

We joined the North Shore, Turtle Watch, Dole, and Macadamia Nut Farm tour, Stephanie was our guide and she kinda did things her way. It was nice she gave us several options to stop at beaches that weren’t necessarily on the list and she gave us suggestions on the food trucks to try at the old Sugar Plantation. But it was also a bit awkward when she will just talk about random things to fill the dead air, for instance she pointed out every passing McDonalds, Cheesecake Factory which I’m pretty sure isn’t particularly useful info to learn about Honolulu or the Hawaiian culture. But that’s neither here or there, the disappointment came to the Turtle Watch part, we just skipped it, she took us to the beaches where we’re supposed to find them, slowly drove and asked we saw anything (as the van was moving) then proceeded to concluded that there were probably none. After driving for at least another mile of the same slow drive and deduction, she asked if any of us was interested in going back to the first place where we thought there was something due to the crowds surrounding something and taking pictures, we didn’t saw anything yet, then she said if we did we would have to walk back one mile by ourselves, as traffic was bad and she wasn’t about to turn back.

Frankly, we joined the tour for the turtle Watch. To be just brushed off like that was disappointing and we felt a bit scammed,

Full Day Tour of North Shore & Waimea Valley Waterfall Swim - Go Tours Hawaii

A great full day bus tour that takes you around Oahu island.

Reviewed by: Lisa Tao

I loved this tour. The bus took us around the island, visiting ALL the hot spots. It can feel a bit rushed but lots of places to go. I think it’s suitable as a first day of your trip activity. Our guide Kanamu was amazing, I loved all the local histories and traditions she told us along the way. The highlight of the trip is definitely Waimea Falls. We spent 1.5 hours here, I personally highly suggest not to go swim in the waterfall because that would become the whole focus of this place. It’s such a beautiful area, you’d be rushing through the short hike trying to get to the waterfall, and once you’ve done swimming you’d be rushing back to your bus. You’d be missing a lot of this beautiful place. I also loved that we stopped for a short 30 minutes Dole plantation. That’s really enough tbh. I would otherwise not have come here but now I can say that I have been there. I loved the fruit stands that we passed, bought some fruits. If you’ve had good sugar cane before don’t buy them here, they weren’t that great. While taste great, they weren’t very juicy, and quite hard to chew. You can definitely try if you’ve never had them before. Bought some macadamia honey at the “nut house”, and I loved the macadamia nut sampling. I was so tired at the end of the trip but definitely worth it!

I participated in this tour for my honeymoon. There were about 20 participants, mostly from English-speaking countries, and many appeared to be older. At the meeting point, there were several tours departing for the same destination at the same time, so it was necessary to look for the bus I was supposed to board.

The explanations and guidance during the tour were only in English. However, the guide, Marlon, could also speak Japanese and often reached out to us. It was possible to ask simple questions individually.

The public restroom at the photo stop was not very clean, so I recommend using the bus restroom instead. The time spent at Byodoin Temple, the macadamia shop, and the Dole Plantation was just right. In North Shore, I was aiming for the Patagonia and Snoopy shops, as well as Matsumoto Shave Ice. The lunch portion was quite large, which took some time to eat, so we had to hurry a bit, but we managed to see everything. I recommend checking in advance the crowd levels and portion sizes for lunch. It was okay to eat Matsumoto Shave Ice on the bus as long as it didn't spill from the container, so I bought it at the end and finished it on the bus. The wait time was about 10 minutes.

The view from the bus window was very beautiful, offering a different landscape from Honolulu.

Our guide Lola was very friendly, and it was the best tour! Since it was an English-only tour, we were a bit worried about our ability to keep up with just everyday conversation. However, Lola, although she hardly spoke any Japanese, spoke slowly and clearly, making it easy to understand, and we had a great conversation.

She also guided us through the buildings and areas along the way, which was fun.

I thought Dole might be somewhat underwhelming, but it was actually very spacious and we enjoyed it a lot. The souvenir section is really large. Haleiwa had a completely different atmosphere from Waikiki, which was refreshing. There were so many places to eat that it was hard to choose, but the garlic shrimp was very delicious. We gave up on the long lines for shave ice and huli huli chicken. Instead, we went to Ali Beach and were thrilled to encounter a honu drying its shell!

I experienced the new attraction Xplore Ride, which was also introduced at HIS events.

I participated from the afternoon of my arrival day. Since I arrived in Hawaii in the morning and couldn't check into the hotel until the afternoon, it was a nice point that I could join during the free time. The tour departs from Royal Hawaiian Avenue next to DFS. I was worried about getting lost, but the large bus with a blue ocean illustration caught my eye, and I was able to find it right away. There are also lunch spots nearby, like Aloha Table and Sticks, making it convenient to join before or after lunch.

After telling my name and boarding the bus, I took my designated seat. I heard that the bus is a brand new custom vehicle for this tour! The ride was comfortable, with luxurious seats. Before departure, a staff member provided an explanation. Following their instructions, I put on the VR goggles that were prepared at my seat, and I immediately saw a language selection button in front of me. When I reached out, I pressed the selection button, and it switched to Japanese mode. They mentioned that it uses AR technology to overlay real-world images with virtual space, and MR technology that connects the virtual world with the body, which made me excited for this first-time experience.

Once the headset and language settings were complete, the tour started. The bus route goes around Diamond Head and returns, and it wasn't a long ride. I was worried about feeling dizzy due to lack of sleep, but I was able to enjoy it without any issues until the end.

During the tour, a guide named Manta appeared. He shared various attractions of Oahu and information about Hawaii. The experience of reaching out and connecting with the virtual space, where dolphins and fish appeared from Waikiki Beach, and scenes where I completely entered another world were filled with many creative elements that kept me engaged. There are many highlights, but I’ll refrain from spoilers. Please be sure to experience it for yourself!

The duration of the tour is easy to participate in. I highly recommend it for both enhancing your knowledge of Hawaii and enjoying a new experience! Thank you!

HISさんのイベントなどでも紹介されていたXplore Ride。気になる新アトラクションを体験してきました。

私は到着日の午後から参加しました。ハワイの到着は現地午前中、ホテルは午後までチェックインができないので、あいた時間に参加できるのは嬉しいポイントです。
ツアーはDFSの横、ロイヤルハワイアン通りから出発します。迷わないか心配でしたが、海の青いイラストが書かれた大きなバスがアイキャッチになり、すぐに「これだ！」と見つけることができました。近くはアロハテーブルやスティックスなどランチ所もあるので、ランチ前後の参加も便利そうです。

名前を伝えてバスに乗ったら、指定の席に座ります。バスはこのツアー特注の新車とのこと！乗り心地も気持ちよい、高級感あるシートでした。
出発前に係の方から説明があります。いわれるがまま席に準備されたVRゴーグルを装着すると、既に何やら言語選択のボタンが目の前に。手を伸ばすと選択ボタンが押され、日本語モードになりました。現実世界の映像と仮想空間が重なるAR技術、バーチャル世界と体が連動するMR技術とのことですが、始めての体験に既にワクワクです。

ヘッドセット、言語セットが完了したら、ツアースタート。バスのルートはダイヤモンドヘッドを一周して戻ってくるコースで、そこまで長時間ではありません。寝不足でデジタル酔いが心配でしたが、最後まで問題なく楽しむことができました。

ツアーでは案内役のマンタが登場。様々なオアフ島の魅力やハワイ情報を教えてくれます。手を伸ばしてバーチャル空間と繋がる体験、ワイキキビーチからイルカや魚が現れたり、完全に異世界に入るシーンもあり、飽きさせない工夫がたくさんでした。見どころは色々ありますが、ネタバレになるので、控えておきます。是非実際に体験してみてください笑

気軽に参加できる所用時間。ハワイの知識を補強できる意味でも、新しい体験を楽しめる意味でも、おすすめできる内容でした！ありがとうございました！
