Oahu
Lola was an awesome driver & host. We had & very interesting, informative, & relaxing drive around the North Shore.
I'm glad I was able to visit the East Coast tourist spots all at once on a tour, which would be difficult for an individual without a rental car.
The guide provided a lot of information about shops in Haleiwa, recommended food trucks, and restroom locations, which was really helpful.
It was a long 8-hour tour, but we returned on time, and I was able to communicate with everyone on the tour and have a great time. Thank you!
レンタカーなしの個人では難しい東海岸の観光地をツアーで一気に行けて良かったです
ガイドさんが社内でもハレイワのショップ情報やおすすめのフードトラックやトイレの場所など沢山の情報を話してくれて凄くたすかりました
8時間の長いツアーだったけど時間通りに帰って来れたしツアーの皆さんともコミュニケーションがとれて楽しく過ごせました
ありがとうございました
There are many food trucks for lunch, so we were a bit overwhelmed. We chose garlic shrimp and pineapple juice. We selected chili sauce for seasoning, but it was very spicy. I recommend the lemon butt
ランチではフードトラックが沢山あるので迷ってしまいました
私達はガーリックシュリンプとパイナップルジュースにしました
味付けはチリソースを選びましたがとても辛かったです
レモンバター味をおすすめします
He knows everything about Hawaii and shared with us. We truly learned a lot of Hawaiian history during this trip. 6 stars instead of 5!!!
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!
If you are prone to motion sickness, it might be a good idea to have some motion sickness medication. The virtual world is not just in front of you, so try moving your head around to enjoy the entire
酔いやすい方は酔い止めがあると良いかもしれません。バーチャル世界は正面だけではないので、首を縦横に振って、世界全体を楽しんでみてください。
I wanted to visit a coffee farm and explore Haleiwa, and I was also hoping to try Giovanni's Garlic Shrimp, and all of that came true! Our guide, Jonah, was very attentive and cheerful, providing a lot of explanations about Hawaiian culture and the scenery we saw during the ride, and he answered our questions, which was very informative!
Also, since there were only four of us in total, including another group, Jonah actively offered to take photos at each spot, which made me very happy as we got to take a lot of pictures. He also provided explanations about the highlights at each location and suggested great spots for photos, which made the tour even more enjoyable thanks to Jonah! Thank you very much!
コーヒーファームに行ってみたかったのとハレイワの散策もしたく、あとジョバンニのガーリックシュリンプも食べれると嬉しいなと思っていたことが全て叶えられました!
ガイドのジョナさんがとても気配り上手で明るく、お迎えから車中でもハワイの文化や見える景色の説明をたくさんしてくれたり、質問にも答えてくれてとても勉強になりました!
また、たまたま参加した日が私たちとあと1組だけで合計4名の少人数だったのもあってか、各スポットで「写真撮りますよ」と積極的に声をかけていただいて、たくさん写真も撮れてとても嬉しかったです(^^)
各スポットで見所の説明や、ここで写真を撮るといい景色ですよ〜といった一言もあって、ジョナさんのおかげでツアーがより楽しくなったなと思いました!
ありがとうございました!
When visiting Haleiwa, I think it would be efficient to pick out the stores you want to visit and understand their locations and walking times.
ハレイワ観光は行きたいお店をピックアップして、お店の位置関係や徒歩での移動時間を把握しておくと効率的に回れていいかなと思います!
We got to see so many local places and we got to try some foods we definitely would not have seen in Waikiki! We loved a day away from the hotel guided by a local!
Since we were the only participants, it was truly a private tour! They really took great care of us. From their thoughtfulness to the explanations, we had a wonderful time, and in the end, they even made a special stop at the bakery we wanted to visit. It truly became a memorable day.
参加者が私たちだけだったのでまさにプライベートツアー!本当に良くして頂きました。お気遣いから説明まで、楽しませてもらい、最後は行きたかったベーカリーにもわざわざ寄ってくれました。本当に思い出に残る一日になりました。
During my last trip to Hawaii, a friend took me on a drive along the east coast with a rental car. I wanted to see those breathtaking views again, so I searched for a tour and found this one that was perfect!
On the day of the tour, we were picked up from our hotel. The tour vehicle arrived on time. It seemed like we were the only participants, which made me feel a bit guilty, but I was secretly happy as it felt like a private tour.
As soon as we set off, our guide asked if we wanted to try malasadas. We stopped at the parking lot of Pearl Ridge Center in the Aiea area to enjoy Leonard's malasadas. After that, we visited Diamond Head, Blowhole, and Makapu'u Lookout. The view of Makapu'u Beach from the lookout, with its deep blue sea and white coastline, is something I will never forget.
At the site of the old Kahuku Sugar Mill on the North Shore, we enjoyed garlic shrimp recommended by our guide. In Haleiwa Town, we had 90 minutes of free time to explore. We visited shops I wanted to check out and had coffee at Island Vintage.
On the way back, although it wasn't part of the itinerary, we stopped by Dole, and finally, we tasted coffee at Green World Coffee Farm, which had a café on the coffee farm.
Our guide took many photos of the two of us, and we had a lot of fun conversations. It was truly an enjoyable day.
前回のハワイで、友人にレンタカーで東海岸沿いを案内してもらいました。でも、もう一度あの絶景が見たくてツアーを探すと、このツアーがピッタリ!
当日はホテルピックアップ。時間通りにツアーの車が到着。参加者が私たちだけのようで、申し訳ないようでしたが、プライベートツアーのようで、内心は嬉しかったです。
出発してすぐに、マラサダ食べたいですか?アイエア地区にあるパールリッジ・センターのパーキングに寄ってレナーズのマラサダを食べました。それから、ココヘッド、潮吹き岩やマカプウ展望台。マカプウ展望台から見たマカプウビーチは真っ青な海と白い海岸線が美しくて今も忘れられません。
ノースショアのカフクシュガーミル跡地ではガイドさんお勧めのガーリックシュリンプを食べました。ハレイワタウンでは90分自由散策。行きたかったショップに寄ったり、アイランド・ビンテージでコーヒーを飲んだり。
帰りにはコースにはありませんでしたが、ドール寄って下さり、最後にグリーン・ワールド・コーヒー・ファームでコーヒーを試飲。そこは、カフェ併設のコーヒー農場でした。
ガイドさんに二人の写真をたくさん撮っていただき、楽しいお話も聞けて、本当に楽しい一日でした。
If possible, I recommend a sunny day.
出来れば晴れの日をお勧めします
In addition to sightseeing in Haleiwa, I had a very valuable experience visiting the macadamia nut farm and coffee farm, which are not easy to get to! Thanks to our guide Jonah's thoughtful care and well-structured guidance, I believe we had a much more fulfilling time than if we had explored on our own.
I was a bit worried about the size of the Kahuku Sugar Mill (where we had lunch), but I was pleasantly surprised by the considerate gesture of driving us around first and then dropping us off near the store we wanted to visit.
It was truly a fun day! Thank you!
ハレイワ観光に加えて、なかなか行けないマカダミアナッツファームとコーヒーファームが回れてとても貴重な体験が出来ました!
ガイドのジョナさんのきめ細かいお心遣いと、ポイントを押さえた案内のお陰で、自分たちだけで観光するよりずっと充実した時間を過ごせたと思います。
一度行ってみたいと思っていたカフクシュガーミル(昼食)は広くて心配でしたが、先に車で一周してから入りたい店の近くに降ろしてくれるという、ちょっと感動するくらいのお気遣い!
本当に楽しい一日でした!
ありがとうございました!
The guides in Hawaii have a wealth of information about living there and delicious places to eat, so I think it's a good idea to ask questions without hesitation.
ハワイでの暮らし方、美味しいお店などに関してガイドの方が本当に多くの情報をお持ちなので、遠慮せずどんどん質問をすると良いと思います。
I had communicated the places I wanted to visit when making the tour reservation, but one location was forgotten, and I couldn't go there. I realized this towards the end, so I take some responsibility for that... It felt like there wasn't a proper schedule set in advance, and it seemed like the places were decided during the car ride on the day of the tour.
Since the reservation form allows you to write down the places you want to visit, I wished they had paid more attention to that and kept it in mind. However, it was great to be able to visit the main tourist spots on Oahu in just one day. Lanikai Beach, in particular, was amazing.
ツアー予約時に行きたい所を伝えていたのですが、1箇所忘れらていて行けませんでした。終盤で気づいた私も悪かったのですが...。事前にスケジュールを立てている感じはなく、当日車での移動中に行く場所を決めているようでした。
行きたい所は予約フォームに書き込めるようになっているのだから、そこはちゃんと見て一応頭には入れておいて欲しかったです。
ただ一日でオアフ島の主要観光地を回れるのはとても良かったです。特にラニカイビーチは最高でした。
I think it's better to remember the places you want to visit that you mentioned when booking the tour, rather than leaving it all to the guide.
ツアー予約時に記載した行きたい所は、ガイド任せにせずちゃんと覚えておいた方が良いと思います。
Tony took us around the island, pointing out major attractions and narrating the entire time. We learned interesting facts about Hawaiian culture and some about the myths and legends. I enjoyed my time in Haliewa and finally got to try Matsumoto's shave ice - definitely worth the hype! Had a great time and Tony was a very gracious host!
My husband, who is learning English conversation, made his first trip to Hawaii! Although we chose an English tour, my husband's English skills couldn't keep up... However, thanks to our cheerful and fun tour guide and driver, Patrick, we had a wonderful time. He helped us purchase tickets for the Dole Plantation, and we were able to enter smoothly. At times, he even used a translation device to explain things, which was incredibly kind and impressive. We had plenty of time in Haleiwa Town, and I was able to finally enjoy authentic garlic shrimp, as well as buy some unique souvenirs and my favorite items!
英会話を習っている主人の腕試しでハワイに初上陸❣️
英語ツアーを選んだものの、主人の英会話力ではついていかれず…でも、ツアーガイド&ドライバーのパトリックさんの明るく楽しいガイドのおかげで、とっても素敵な時間を過ごせました。
ドール農園のチケット購入時も手伝っていただき無事に入園、時に、翻訳機能を利用して説明してくれたりと、本当に親切な対応で感激しました。
ハレイワタウンもたっぷり時間があって、念願の本場ガーリックシュリンプも食べれたし、珍しいお土産やお気に入りの品々を購入する事ができました❣️
The pineapple ice cream at Dole Plantation is in a BIG size, and it takes time to eat. We shared it between two people, and it took us about 10 minutes to finish.
ドール農園でのパイナップルアイスは、BIGサイズで、食べるのに時間がかかります2人でシェアしましたが、10分くらいかけて食べました。
Thank you very much for participating in our Haleiwa Express & Dole Plantation tour as a couple. It must have been reassuring to have your husband, who is learning English, on your first trip to Hawaii! We are truly delighted to hear that you enjoyed various aspects of your visit. Our entire staff is honored to have been able to assist you in creating wonderful memories in Hawaii. We look forward to welcoming you back again.
この度は私共のハレイワエクスプレス&ドールプランテーション ツアーにご夫婦で参加して頂き誠にありがとうございました。
英会話を習得されている旦那様との初めてのハワイ、心強いですね!色々と楽しんでいただけたようで本当に嬉しく思っております。ハワイでの素敵な思い出作りのお手伝いができたことをスタッフ一同光栄に思っております。またのお越しをスタッフ一同お待ち申し上げております。
Went to areas on the island that I would have never seen on my own.
These step stool to get down should have two levels. I had a hard time getting out of the van
First of all, I want to express my gratitude to the guide; I truly had a fulfilling day. They took us to breathtaking spots that weren't included in the tour, provided detailed explanations about shops and buildings while we moved around, and taught us a variety of things without any time to rest.
When I mentioned that I wanted to try a loco moco burger, they honestly advised me on which places were delicious and which weren't, making it easy to choose a restaurant.
The pickup time was accurate, and the service was kind and attentive. My mother was also satisfied; thank you very much.
まず初めにガイドの方に感謝の気持ちを伝えたいほど、本当に充実した1日を過ごさせていただきました。ツアー内容に入っていない絶景スポットに寄ってくれたり、店や建物の説明をとにかく詳しくしてもらいながら移動したり、寝る間のないほど様々なことを教えていただきました。
ロコモコバーガーが食べたい旨を話すと、正直レビューで美味しい、美味しくないをアドバイスしてくれて、店選びをスムーズに行うことが出来ました。
ピックアップ時間も正確で、親切、丁寧な対応でした。母も満足しておりました、ありがとうございました。
The sun is strong, so you definitely need a hat! I brought a step ladder among my travel goods, but the guide took photos at all the locations, so I didn't need it.
日差しが強いので絶対帽子がいります!旅行グッズの中に脚立を持って行ったのですが、ガイドさんが全ての場所で写真を撮影してくれるので要りませんでした。
I found a fulfilling tour that required a reservation and was difficult to access early in the morning for the Diamond Head hike, along with sightseeing on the East Coast and the North Shore, and booked it immediately.
Although I couldn't make it to the summit of Diamond Head in the early morning, I was able to see the sunrise along the way, and the view from the top was beautiful. I also visited Blowhole for the first time and coincidentally saw a whale jump. Our guide, Jonah, not only provided explanations but also took photos for us at various spots. He even took us to a place with a malasada food truck and Makapu'u Point, which wasn't on the original itinerary, making me feel like I got a great deal.
I've been to the North Shore a few times, but it was my first time at the lunch spot, Kahuku Sugar Mill, which was enjoyable. Overall, it was a packed day of hiking and sightseeing, and I highly recommend this tour. Although the time from early morning to evening was long, there were only two groups (four people total), so we were able to return to Waikiki 30 minutes early, right on schedule.
予約必要かつ早朝はアクセスしづらいダイヤモンドヘッド登山と、行ったことがない東海岸の観光、そしてノースショア。充実したツアーを見つけ、即予約しました。
早朝のダイヤモンドヘッドでは山頂には間に合いませんでしたが、途中で日の出を見ることができ、山頂でもきれいな景色が楽しめました。潮吹き岩も初めて訪れ、偶然クジラのジャンプも見られました。ガイドのジョナさんは説明はもちろん、行く先々で写真も撮って下さり、また途中予定にはないマラサダのフードトラックのある場所やマカプウ岬も寄ってくれ、得した気分になりました。ノースショアは何度か行ったことがありますが、ランチ場所のカフクシュガーミルは初めてだったので楽しかったです。とにかく1日でハイキングと観光てんこ盛りでとても充実したおすすツアーです。早朝から夕方まで時間は長いのですが、私達含めて2組(計4人)だったので、集合時間もぴったりで30分も早くワイキキに戻ることができました。
Since it's a long hiking tour starting early in the morning, I think it's best to participate in the tour in great physical condition. It's a very enjoyable tour as a result.
早朝からハイキングの長いツアーなので、体調万全でツアーに参加されるとよいと思います。その分とても楽しいツアーです。
It was all in English, but the staff were kind and I enjoyed the North Shore. I reflected on my English skills, wishing I could have understood more from the guide along the way.
英語オンリーでしたが、親切に対応いただき、ノースショアを楽しめました
道中のガイドはヒアリングがもっと出来れば良かったと自分の英語力を反省です
This tour was great. Clean, smooth bus. Great choice of places to stop but the highlight of the tour was our guide Lola. She was so knowledgeable sharing all sorts of Hawaiian history and interesting bits. She was caring, funny and a super good driver. We’re very glad we chose this tour and we recommend it.
I was able to enjoy a fulfilling sightseeing experience as we visited each destination at a good pace! The guide provided valuable knowledge about the places we were passing while driving. The guide also took photos at each destination, creating wonderful memories. The most impressive moment was at the blowhole, where I was very lucky to see a whale jumping in the distance.
それぞれの目的地をテンポよく巡って充実した観光ができました!ガイドさんが運転しながら今通っている場所の知識を教えてくれるのでためになります。ガイドさんが各目的地で写真を撮ってくださり思い出になります。巡った中で一番印象的だったのは潮吹き岩で遠くにクジラがジャンプする姿を見ることができたことでとてもラッキーでした。
I think it's a good idea to get plenty of sleep and take care of your health before participating, as you'll be quite tired from walking a lot at your destinations after climbing Diamond Head in the m
朝ダイヤモンドヘッドに登ってからその後巡る目的地でもかなり歩いて疲れるのでしっかり睡眠をとって体調を整えて参加するのがよいと思います。
We chartered for 8 hours for our family of four, and I was impressed by the perfect scheduling after sharing our desired destinations in advance! (The burgers and fries at Five Guys, where we stopped for lunch, were delicious!) Ken was fluent in Japanese, very cheerful and fun, and had a wealth of local knowledge and topics, so we felt comfortable leaving everything in his hands. The car was spacious, clean, and comfortable, and he chose safe and clean restrooms at just the right times, making the long drive feel quick. I definitely want to request this again next time.
家族4人で8時間チャーターをお願いしましたがこちらの行きたいところをあらかじめお伝えしたところ、完璧なスケジューリングで感動しました!
(ランチで立ち寄った5GUYSのハンバーガーとポテト美味しかったです!)
KENさんは日本語堪能、とても明るく楽しい方でローカルな知識や話題も豊富でしたので、安心してお任せすることができました。
車も広く綺麗でゆったりしていましたし、トイレ休憩もタイミング良く安全で綺麗なトイレがあるところを選んで下さり、長時間のドライブもあっという間でした。
また次回も是非、お願いしたいと思います。
It was amazing! I'm truly grateful for the high praise and your wonderful words! I believe you can still experience more local Hawaiian American culture, so look forward to your next visit! Mahalo~ 🤙🏼
最高でした!と 高評価を頂き 最高に有難いお言葉が本当に嬉しいです! まだまだ ローカルなハワイアンアメリカンを体験してもらえると思っていますので、次回もお楽しみに! マハロ〜🤙🏼
- It was great that the bus was waiting before the meeting time, allowing us to board right away.
- Throughout the journey, there were constant explanations of the tourist attractions, including their history, which made it easy to understand.
- At the Dole Plantation, thanks to the "Royal Star/Beltra," we were able to enter before opening hours, which was time-efficient. Additionally, showing the tour sticker provides discounts on souvenirs.
- The bus was equipped with a restroom, which was reassuring for the elderly, and we appreciated that.
・集合時間の前にバスが待機していて、直ぐに乗車が出来て良かったです。
・道中、常に観光名所の説明があり、成立ちまで語って頂き、分かり易かったです。
・ドールプランテーションでは、「ロイヤル・スター/ベルトラ」のおかげで開園時間前に入場する事ができ、
時間効率が良かったです。またツアーステッカーを見せると土産も割引きが有ります。
・バスにトイレが完備されているために、年配には心配が無く、ありがたです。
- At Dole Plantation, riding the train allowed us to understand the scale and history of the farm.
- For those wishing to stroll along the coast at North Shore, it's best to go there first for better
・ドールプランテーションでは、園内列車に乗車すると、農園の規模や歴史が解りました。
・ノースショアでは海岸散策を希望される方は、最初に行かれると時間配分が良いです。
Thank you very much for participating in our Haleiwa Express & Dole Plantation Tour with your spouse. We also appreciate the detailed information and very positive review about the tour. We look forward to welcoming you back to Hawaii.
この度は私共のハレイワエクスプレス&ドールプランテーションツアーにご夫婦で参加して頂き誠にありがとうございました。ツアーでの詳細情報と大変ポジティブな口コミも有難う御座います。又のお越しをハワイにてお待ちしております。
We prefer planning our trips ourselves rather than going with groups or package tours, and this private charter was perfect for us as a couple who value privacy! Our stay in Hawaii was very short, and we had to be creative with our time on Oahu. Ken made our wish to tour from the easternmost point to the North Shore a reality.
Of course, since the travel time was longer, our stay at each location was limited, but thanks to Ken, we were able to fully enjoy power spots, beaches, and gourmet experiences, creating many wonderful memories! The comfortable car ensured our privacy, and Ken's gentlemanly driving, along with his very interesting and engaging stories, made us both fall in love with him. We definitely want to see him again!
Next time, we would like to focus on fewer points and incorporate Ken's recommended spots into a carefully selected course. We will definitely return to Hawaii, so we look forward to seeing you then!
旅行では団体やパックツアーなどではなく、自身でプランニングするのが好きで、プライバシーを大切にしたい私たち夫婦にピッタリのとても贅沢な貸切チャーターでした!
今回のハワイでの滞在時間は非常に短く、オアフ島の滞在も工夫が必要でした。
今回は最東端〜ノースショアまでぐるっと回るわがままプランをKenさんが見事叶えてくださいました。
もちろん、移動時間が長くなるため1箇所あたりの滞在時間は制限されてしまいますが、そんな中でもKenさんのおかげでパワースポット、ビーチ、グルメなど目一杯楽しめたくさんの思い出が得られました!
プライバシーが確保された快適な車とジェントルマンな運転、車内でのとても面白く興味深いお話で、2人ともすっかりKenさんが大好きで是非またお目にかかりたいとおもっています!
次回はもっとポイントを絞って、Kenさんのオススメポイントも盛り込んだ厳選コースを考えたいです☆
また必ずハワイに帰ってくるのでその際は是非よろしくお願いいたします!
Since the driver is not also a guide, I recommend doing some research in advance if you're going to a place where you'll need to walk to your destination after getting off. Additionally, you'll need t
ドライバーさん兼ガイドさんではないため、もしも降車後目的地まで徒歩移動が発生するような場所に行く際は下調べをしておくことをオススメします。また、写真撮影なども自分達で工夫が必要です。
Thank you for the highest rating. Mahalo~ 🤙🏼
最高の評価 ありがとうございました。マハロ〜🤙🏼
Great day full of unbelievable sights and good stories from the guide throughout
A truly unique experience. As you board the spacious and comfortable bus in Waikiki the staff prepares you for your journey. You are given a virtual reality headset that is adjustable and comfortable. The virtual reality is interactive, and educational. As the bus is moving it actually feels like your body is moving through the experience. The colors, animals, and sounds felt so real!
Would not recommend if you are prone to motion sickness. Would recommend if you are interested in virtual reality, and enjoy a fun ride. Comparable to a smooth rollercoaster.
It was a very nice bus, and there was a restroom, so it was comfortable. The driver, who also served as the guide, was enthusiastic and entertaining. Since it was an English tour, I only understood parts of it, but I still enjoyed it even though my English isn't great.
However, we visited many places, so the time spent at each location was short, and waiting in line for the restroom further reduced our sightseeing time, which was a bit unsatisfying. The malasadas we had along the way were delicious.
凄く立派なバスでお手洗いもあったので、快適でした。運転兼ガイドの方も説明も熱心で面白かったです。英語のツアーなので、所々しかわからなかったのですが...
英語が不得意でもたのしめました。
ただ、沢山回るのでそれぞれの滞在時間が短くて、トイレに並ぶと見学時間が余計に短くなってしまい、ものたりなかったです。
途中で頂いたマラサダま美味しかったです。
Each stay is short, so be careful not to be late for the meeting time if you don't move quickly.
それぞれの滞在時間が短いので、さっさと動かないと集合時間に遅れるので気をつけて。
Thank you very much for participating in our Grand Circle Island Tour. We are very pleased that you enjoyed the beautiful entirety of Hawaii. We also appreciate your very positive review. We look forward to your next visit.
この度は私共のグランドサークルアイランドツアーにご参加頂き誠に有難う御座います。素敵なハワイ全体を楽しめて頂き大変嬉しく思っております。そして、大変ポジティブな口コミも有難う御座います。又のお越しをお待ちしております。
The bus driver provided various explanations while driving, which made the experience very enjoyable. He was a kind person who loved Japan. Haleiwa Town and the Dole Plantation were such attractive places that we didn't have enough time to do everything we wanted! 🎶
バスの運転手さんがずーっと色んな説明しながら運転してくださってとても楽しかったです。日本が大好きというとても優しい方でした。
ハレイワタウンもドールプランテーションもしたいことするには時間が足らなかったぐらい魅力的な場所でした🎶
If you want to try Matsumoto Shave Ice, you might want to line up right away. The queue was getting longer and longer.
マツモトシェイブアイスを食べたい方はすぐに並んだ方がいいかも?どんどん列が長くなっていました。
Thank you very much for participating in our Haleiwa Express & Dole Plantation Tour. We are very pleased that you enjoyed the beautiful North Shore of Hawaii and the Dole Plantation. We also appreciate your very positive review. We look forward to welcoming you again.
この度は私共のハレイワエクスプレス&ドールプランテーションツアーに参加して頂き誠にありがとうございました。ハワイの素敵なノースショアとドールプランテーションも充分に楽しんで頂き大変嬉しく思っております。大変ポジティブな口コミも有難う御座います。又のお越しをお待ちしております。
I made a reservation based on reviews, but honestly, I feel like I made a mistake. The driver was most enthusiastic about sharing personal stories, while the information that Japanese tourists typically seek was mentioned only briefly and felt obligatory (it seemed like a line he says every time). There wasn't much local information shared, and when I asked questions, I felt like I was being brushed off. I'm sorry, but the conversation was not enjoyable at all. Due to a lack of consideration, several places I wanted to visit and things I wanted to do were not fulfilled. While it may have functioned as just a transportation service, I believe that one of the appeals of a private charter is to have local people guide you, and that aspect was not met. There were almost no arrangements made for taking photos after getting out of the car.
Additionally, although it was an 8-hour plan, it seemed like we wrapped up quite early, possibly due to a discount campaign. I was disappointed because we could have made a few more stops with the remaining time, but it felt like the driver wanted to go home early.
To sum up, I will definitely not be repeating this experience. It may depend on who the driver is and their mood that day, but for the price paid, I would definitely recommend choosing another option for this level of service. Overall, it was disappointing.
口コミなどを踏まえて予約しましたが、終わった感想としては、正直間違ったな〜と思っています。
ドライバーさんは自分の身の上話が1番テンション高く、日本人の観光客が求めているような情報は義務的にチラッと話す程度(毎回言ってるセリフなんだろうな〜という感じ)。現地情報もあまり出てこず、何か質問してもはぐらかされ。ごめんなさい、お話が全然楽しくなかったです。行きたかった場所ややりたかった事も、配慮のなさによりいくつか叶わず。ただの送迎としては機能していたかもしれないですが、こういう貸切チャーターって現地の人にガイドしでもらえるのも醍醐味の一つかと思うのですが、そこは満たされませんでした。車から降りて写真を撮ってくれるといった計らいもほぼ皆無です。
また、8時間プランでしたが割引キャンペーン適用になっていたせいか、結構早めに切り上げられました。余っていた時間でもう少し寄り道できたのに、と残念ですが、ドライバーさんは早めに帰りたかった感じを受けました。
長くなりましたが、リピートは絶対に無いです。ドライバーさんが誰なのか、またその日の気分にもよるのかもしれませんが、この値段払ってこのサービスなら絶対他を選んだ方が良いです。総じて残念でした。
If you want to consult about your stopover in advance, you need to actively reach out via LINE or similar platforms, as they won't offer any recommendations on their own. On the day of your visit, it
立ち寄り先について事前に相談したい場合は、積極的に事前にLINEなどで連絡しないと向こうから何かオススメなどが来ることはありません。
当日も、希望があればなんでもヅケヅケと言った方が良いかもしれない。
Waking up early was tough, but it was definitely worth it! At Diamond Head, they lend you hand lights, so you don't need to bring anything. The view from the top was amazing! I also got to see many beautiful sights at the beach and in nature. Jonah shared the scenery, delicious restaurants, and information about Hawaii while driving, making the journey very enjoyable. Haleiwa Town on the North Shore was a great place for shopping at famous stores like Patagonia and enjoying acai bowls, which left me very satisfied! The nuts from the macadamia nut farm were delicious, and before I knew it, I had bought a lot of souvenirs (laughs). At the coffee farm I was aiming for, there were so many coffee beans to choose from that time flew by!
I highly recommend joining the tour for anyone who is considering it!
朝早くから大変ですが早起きしたかいがありました!
ダイヤモンドヘッドではハンドライトも貸してもらえるため必要なものは何もありません。
頂上からの景色は最高でした!
そのほかにもビーチや自然のなかで素敵な景色をたくさん見られました。
ジョナさんが運転中にも見える景色や美味しいお店、ハワイのことを紹介してくれる為、移動中もとても楽しめました。
ノースショアのハレイワタウンはpatagoniaなどの有名店でのショッピングやアサイーボウルも食べられ、大満足でした!
マカダミアナッツ農園のナッツもおいしく、気づけばお土産をたくさん買っていました(笑)
お目当てのコーヒー農園では、たくさんのコーヒー豆があり、よりどりみどりで時間が過ぎるのがあっという間でした!
ツアーに参加するか迷っている人はぜひ参加をオススメします!
I thought there would be other participants, but it seemed that we were the only ones, so we were able to enjoy a private experience. Not only did they guide us to our destination, but they also pointed out buildings along the street and shared insights about local daily life, so we were never bored in the car.
The strong winds made the blowhole quite impressive! I was able to sample a lot of macadamia nuts, and they were all delicious.
In Haleiwa Town, there were many shops, and they accurately pointed out the popular ones, allowing us to explore efficiently.
They also informed us about events happening that day, which helped us plan our sightseeing for the rest of our stay. Thank you very much.
他の参加者と一緒に回ると思っていましたが、参加者が私たちだけだった様で、貸し切りで気楽に過ごせました。目的地への案内だけでなく、通り沿いの建物を教えてくれたり、地元の日常を教えてくれたり、クルマの中も退屈しませんでした。
風が強かったせいもあり、潮吹き岩迫力がありました!マカダミアナッツ、試食沢山できてどれも美味しかったです。
ハレイワタウンもお店が沢山あるなか、人気店を的確に教えてくれたので効率良く回れました。
当日しているイベントも教えて頂き、残りの滞在中の観光の参考になりました。
ありがとうございました。
I think it's good for those visiting Hawaii for the first time.
初めてハワイに来られる方には良いと思います。
I wish I had done this tour earlier into my trip. We got to see the entire island. It was clear that our guide, Kevin was passionate and knowledgeable on the island's history and culture. Our group made a few stops additional to the two main activities. It was well worth the cost. As a solo traveller I had an amazing time on this excursion!
The color of the sea was incredibly beautiful and amazing! The scenery made me want to keep looking at it forever, and even now that I'm back home, it remains a wonderful memory. The guide was also quick-witted and provided a pleasant experience.
海の色がすごく綺麗で最高でした!ずーっと見ていたくなるような景色ばかりで、帰国した今でも記憶に残るいい思い出です。
ガイドさんも機転がきいて気持ちの良い対応でした。
