Oahu
My friends and I have experienced the beautiful Star of Honolulu dinner cruise and it was the most memorable event ever. To begin the night was a graceful performance of the hula performers who greeted us aboard. We enjoyed songs of a live band and our favorite cocktails as we were seated to our table. The interior of the boat was elegantly decorated with special lighting and table settings, perfect for setting the mood of any occasion. As the large boat cruised smoothly through the waters of Oahu, my friends and I were able to capture beautiful photos together on the observation deck. With the sea surrounding us, we watched the beautiful sunset. Our dinner was immediately brought to our table with excellent service. We had an excellent steak and all you can eat crab dinner course. Throughout the rest of our tour, we watched an entertaining act of Polynesian dancers of different cultures, like Hawaiian, Tahitian, Samoan, and Tongan performances done by professionals with great aloha sp
Date of participation: March 19, 2007 (Monday). We participated as a couple. Gunstock Ranch is about an hour and a half by car from Waikiki, located beyond the Polynesian Cultural Center. The area is lush and green, quite different from the rocky terrain of the Big Island, making it suitable for horseback riding. We gathered at 8:30 in the morning. It was just the two of us participating. After the rain, the greenery and rainbow were beautiful. We signed some documents, learned the basics of horseback riding, and mounted our horses. We proceeded with three horses into the greenery. Along the way, the female guide asked, "RUN?" and when I answered "YES," we started to gallop. The horse I rode was well-trained and very responsive. Since it was a horse that wanted to run, I hardly had to kick it at all. We mostly galloped except for the climbs and descents to the hill and some slippery red dirt areas. The trees on both sides formed an arch, and we moved through it at a comfortable speed. The guide picked guava fruit for us, which was sour and delicious. When we reached the top of the hill, we had a 360-degree view. We could see the ocean as well. The wind felt nice, and the view was amazing. The hour flew by. It was a lot of fun.
P.S. To Alan1: Please create a farm stay tour at this ranch.
参加日: 2007/03/19(月) 夫婦2人で参加しました。
ガンストック牧場はワイキキから車で約1時間半、ポリネシアカルチュアルセンターの先にあります。緑が一面に広がっていて、ハワイ島のゴツゴツした地面とは違い、乗馬に適していました。朝、8時半に集合。参加は私たち夫婦2人のみ。雨上がりで緑と虹がとてもきれいです。書類にサインをし、乗馬の基本を教えてもらい騎乗。緑の中へ3頭で進んでいきます。途中、女性のガイドさんから「RUN?」と言われたので「YES」と答えると駆け足開始。乗った馬は良く調教されていてとてもよく言うことを聞きます。走りたがりの馬だったのでほとんど蹴らずにすみました。丘までの上り下りや、赤土むき出しで滑りやすい場所以外はほとんど駆け足です。両側の木がアーチになっていて、その下を心地よいスピードで進みます。ガイドさんがグァバの実を採ってくれます。すっぱくておいしい。丘のてっぺんに上ると、そこからは360度の視界が開けます。海も見えます。風も気持ちよく最高の眺めです。あっという間の1時間でした。とても楽しかったです。

If you don't like sharing a table, it's better to choose this option. There are seats by the sea, and they are divided according to the number of people. One person has their back to the sea, so it can be a bit uncomfortable to look at the ocean, but it was fine since we enjoyed delicious food together. The champagne is one bottle for two people, and there was quite a lot, more than we could finish. They also took photos for us, which made for a great memory.
相席がイヤならこのオプションを付けたほうが良いですよ。海側に席があって人数に応じて席が区分けされています。一人は海に背を向けているので海を眺める時はちょっとツライ姿勢になるけど2人で美味しい料理をいただけたから別に良いけど。シャンパンは2人で一本なんですが結構量が沢山で飲みきれないほどでした。写真もとってもらって良い記念になりました。
We added a couple's plan to the three-star course. It wasn't that I really disliked sharing a table, but having our own dishes on our own table definitely makes for a more relaxing dining experience. Although the neighboring seats aren't very far away, there are other people nearby, but it doesn't bother me at all. The price is also quite reasonable, and it includes a commemorative photo, so I recommend opting for this plan.
3スターのコースにカップルプランをつけました。
相席がすごいやだったわけではないですが、気分的に自分達のテーブルには自分達の料理がのっていて、
食事ができるのは、やっぱり落ち着きます。隣の席とすごく離れてるわけではないので、
すぐ近くにに他の人がいるけれど、別に気にはなりません。
料金自体も安くて、記念の写真もついてくるので、このプランをつけることをおすすめします。
