ワイケレ・プレミアム・アウトレット シャトル送迎サービス<VIPブックレット付き>

No distribution of VIP booklets. VIPブックレットの配布無し

Reviewed by: Max

I asked the driver about the QR code for the VIP booklet, but he didn't have it. I was told that it could be obtained at the information center in Waikele. It didn't seem like he had forgotten it.

In the end, I obtained it myself at the information center. It took about 10 minutes as a time loss.

Therefore, I think it would be good to implement the following measures in the future.

Necessary Information
【How to Obtain the Waikele VIP Booklet】
Please obtain the QR code from the driver when boarding the bus. The driver has a laminated version of the QR code, which you will need to scan.

VIPブックレットのQRコードについて、ドライバーさんに聞いたところ持っておらず、ワイケレのinformationで入手できると言われました。忘れてきた様子でもなかったです。
結局自分でinformationで入手しました。時間ロスにして10分程度でした。

ですので、以下の記載についての今後の対策をされた方がよろしいかと思います。

必要事項
【ワイケレVIPブックレット入手方法】
バス乗車の際に運転手よりQRコードを入手してください。運転手がQRコードをラミネート加工されたものを持参しておりますので、そちらをスキャンしていただく形となります。

Star of Honolulu Whale Watching Cruise with Banana Bread & Coffee | 2-Hour Morning Tour [Jan-Mar]

Awesome way to spend a morning in Oahu

Reviewed by: Z_Morgenstern

As the title says, it's an awesome way to spend a morning in Oahu! (Feb 2024)

We arrived early to self park and upon boarding we're guided to the main lower deck for a brief introduction and instructions. The Star of Honolulu was spacious with several decks, allowing options for guests as to how they want to go about the whale watching experience. Our group stayed on the second deck, not too many people went there (we think, as compared to the top deck).

Kaitlyn, our naturalist, was entertaining - lots of dad jokes* - and information about the wildlife in the area (whales, dolphins, etc).

Finally the highlight of the tour, the whale sighting! We were very lucky to be able to witness a mama whale teaching her baby whale how to breach! It was so fun and amazing to watch them play around in the water. That's sure to be an unforgettable experience. It was good timing too that we visited Hawaii during peak whale watching season.

Other points I'd like to mention:
- The restroom was clean and had a lot of stalls, so you wouldn't have to worry.
- The crew also mentioned that they had ginger chews to help if you're feeling a bit seasick.
- Food & drinks are available to purchase onboard.
- I was rather a bit worried that the life vests were only available inside the benches on the main deck (iirc). I think it might be good to make sure there are life vests in other areas of the boat as well in case of emergency. Not everyone on the upper decks might be able to come down the stairs. Or maybe I'm just being a worrywart, don't mind me.

*KRILL-ed cheese was my favorite joke. :D

I think it would be better to have options like a half-price refund if we can't see the whales, because there might be times when the schedule doesn't match even if it's free next time.

Star of Honolulu Dinner Cruise - Luxury Top Deck Sunset Dining Experience & Live Entertainment

A Dinner Cruise in Paradise

Reviewed by: Honeymooners

Hello everybody,

Let me share our experience (honeymooners) on the 5 Stars Course of that Dinner Cruise with you.

In terms of hospitality, starting from the pick-up crew, to the captains and waitress (many thanks to lovely Jordan), it was just great.

We had an super easy pick up with a bus, where everyone received a sticker depending on the course they’ve booked and then took around 15-30 minutes to get the harbor.

Everyone had a warm welcome with local dance and music in front of the boat while boarding. Once we have taken our seats, we were welcomed with nice champagne and some cheese and ham plate with crackers.

In terms of the food in that day, it was simply amazing and tasty. ESPECIALLY the served meat. Whoever cooked that: genius!

Anyhow, besides food and drinks we got the chance to explore the boat between the food breaks. We had an amazing view on Waikiki/Diamond Head/other boats, even though it was cloudy. It was still very enjoyable. And also we had the great luck to see whales! That was the cherry on top.

Well, besides all of that going on, we had live entertainment (pianist, some Saxophon and some singer - all just awesome). They’ll also take a picture of you, so for 30$ you can purchase them.
In the end, everyone with some special occasion was asked to dance in the middle of the room, which was pretty romantic.


Overall, it was really worth it.

Minus points for:
- photo only available as data file for another 20$ (why?!)
- pretty chilly inside the boat (but guess this depends on the season)


Overall, just great! Would love to board once more in the future.
Thanks everyone!

The tour with Dan and Chieko, who are well-versed in Hanauma Bay, was fantastic. They guided us through a great course that matched the day's sea conditions.

Reviewed by: ガガ

We participated as a couple in our 70s. First of all, the view from the ship was amazing! We were able to see the buildings of Hawaii and Diamond Head from the sea side, and we enjoyed it even when we couldn't see any whales. We spotted whales about three times! Although we couldn't see their entire bodies, we were able to see their tails and the spouts. The interior of the ship was spacious, and we could go out to the deck from various levels, which made it fun to experience the different views. Right after boarding, there was a photo session, and we received the developed photos at the end. Onboard, we could purchase light snacks, soft drinks, and alcohol.

70歳夫婦で参加しました。
まず、船内からの眺めが最高でした!ハワイの建物やダイヤモンドヘッドを海側から見ることができ、クジラが見れないときも楽しめました。

Try Scuba Waikiki Guided Shore Diving Tour for Beginners with FREE Videos

Great experience scuba diving in Honolulu

Reviewed by: Barbara

I never tried scuba diving and I can't swim well so I was worried but the scuba diving team was amazing.
They were very attentive and helped each diver in the group to ensure we had a great time in the water. The lagoon is in the city very close to Waikiki Beach but not crowded. It is a beautiful and quiet place. It felt very safe.
We saw corals and many different fish and we got a few short videos of the experience as part of the tour.
If you are looking for a safe introduction to scuba diving this guided diving tour is definitely a great choice.

Waikiki Luau with All-You-Can-Eat Buffet Dinner, Fire Dance & Rock-A-Hula Show

Rock-A-Hula Luau Dinner with Green Room VIP Package

Reviewed by: Lonn

I purchased the Rock-A-Hula Luau Dinner with Green Room VIP Package as part of an early Valentines trip to the Island of Oahu. We are a couple who have been to each of the main Hawaiian Islands and look for unique experiences each place we travel. We have participated in other Luau's in Hawaii and similar other events in other places we have traveled. Upon arrival we were greeted with flower lei's. Then had Champagne and appetizers in the Green Room which had furnishings from Elvis's home. Cameron the manager who gave us the tour was very informative and could tell he had a passion for the production and the crew. The entire staff was very friendly and welcoming and during dinner came around and performed various songs, dances, and even did a "Hula Lesson" for anyone who wanted to participate. The food and drinks were very good as well. Following Dinner we went back to the main theatre for the show which was a good blend of history and entertainment. We appreciated the screens showing the history and how it coordinated with the entertainment on stage. Overall the Green room/Backstage tour experience was very good and we are glad to have opted for this option but also would recommend just the dinner and show experience.

Reviewed by: あいう

Meet at Pier 8 near Aloha Tower at 8:00 AM.
There is a shuttle service, but you can also take The Bus from Waikiki for just $3 one way!
I arrived before 8:00 AM, and check-in started right at 8:00, with check-in open until around 8:30. It's definitely better to arrive early.
We departed on time, and the female guide spoke various things in English to the participants, but I couldn't understand anything. (laughs)
After that, we were told we could freely move around the deck, and I looked out at the sea from the third floor, searching for whales.
The explanations about the whales were given alternately in English and Japanese, which was very educational and enjoyable.
Later, we heard an announcement about the direction of a spout, and everyone stared in that direction, but we didn't see any whales until the end of the cruise.
Well, it's nature, so it can't be helped.
That said, the view of Diamond Head from the sea was very beautiful, and it was a great experience.
When we were getting off the boat, there was an announcement that those who wanted could get tickets to ride again. If you're confident in your English, feel free to ask.
Considering the time I had in Honolulu, I thought it would be impossible to try again, so I didn't reschedule this time. After all, there's no guarantee that I would see anything next time either...
It was a fun experience. Thank you very much.

ハワイでパラセーリング 高さ120m/150mの上空からワイキキとダイアモンドヘッドの絶景を鑑賞!<ヒルトン・ワイキキ>

150m first parasailing 150m初パラセイリング

Reviewed by: みーこ

It was my first time parasailing, and I had a really fun time. I also requested photos and received some great pictures. We rode on a small boat with a few other groups to go out to sea, so while others were experiencing it, we had to wait on the boat, which made the time on the boat quite long. I had heard from previous participants that there was a possibility of seasickness, so I took motion sickness medication beforehand and enjoyed it without feeling sick. I think it's essential for those who are prone to motion sickness. Other than that, it was an incredibly fun and amazing time.

初めてのパラセイリングでしたがとても楽しい時間を過ごすことができました。
写真もお願いしてとてもいい写真をいただきました。
何組かと合同で小さい船に乗って沖まで出るので、他の方が体験している間は船で待っていることになり、かなり船に乗っている時間が長いです。事前に参加した方から船酔いする可能性あると聞いていたので酔い止めを事前に飲んで、特に酔うこともなく楽しめました。おそらく乗り物に弱い方は酔い止め必須だと思います。
それ以外は、とてもとても楽しく最高な時間でした。

I enjoyed the breathtaking views. 絶景を堪能しました

Reviewed by: TY

We participated in the 11:30 session. There were seven of us in total, including the three of us and two pairs of friends who joined. It was great that we could fly as a group of three.

The weather was nice, and we enjoyed the stunning views. It was our first experience, and at first, there were parts that felt a bit scary, but as we got used to it, the height didn't bother us much.

If you pay an additional $40, you can receive dozens of photo data on an SD card (they can also transfer it on the spot if you have an iPhone). I recommend this for those who want to keep memories of themselves enjoying parasailing.

11:30の回に参加。我々3人と、二人連れ2組の計7人でボートに乗り込みました。我々は3人で飛べたのでよかったです。

天気がよかったこともあり、絶景を満喫しました。初めての体験で、最初は少し怖かった部分もありましたが、慣れてくると高さはあまり気になりません。

追加で$40を支払うと数十枚の写真データをSDカードでもらえます(iPhoneでればその場で転送もしてくれます)。パラセイリングを楽しんでいる自分たちの姿を残しておきたい方にはオススメです。

It was really cold. とにかく寒かった

Reviewed by: ケイボ

It was beautiful, but it was just too cold. My 12-year-old child enjoyed it, but it was tough for my 6-year-old daughter. I recommend it for those over 10 years old. I wish the price could be lower for children who can't snorkel.

きれいだったけど、とにかく寒すぎました
12歳の子供は楽しめましたが、6歳の娘は厳しかったです。10歳以上の方にオススメします
シュノーケルできない子供は料金を安くしてほしいです

ウェット アンド ワイルド ハワイ 絶叫ウォータースライダーなど25種類以上のアトラクションが揃うウォーターパーク ランチやドリンク付きパッケージプランあり

Enjoy the wave pool! 波のプールでエンジョイ!

Reviewed by: Putty

Enjoying the wave pool!
- After arriving by bus
It was a bit unsettling to find no one there, but when we went near the entrance, a Japanese staff member was there to assist us. They helped us enter and even guided us to where we could rent lockers.

- Wave pool
My child (11 years old) seemed to have the most fun here. There are also floaties available. There are thrilling rides, but my child ended up crying, so please be cautious. It might be a little scary for kids at first, but once they get used to it, it's no problem! Some of the thrill rides require you to take off your glasses, so those who wear glasses should be careful. I put mine in my pocket.

- Lunch
We added lunch to the tour, but I thought it was a bit insufficient. It might be better to plan on purchasing your own food.

波のプールでエンジョイ!
・バスで到着後
誰もいなくて、ちょっと不安になりますが、入り口付近に行くと、日本人スタッフの方がいらっしゃり、一緒に入場してくださり、ロッカーを借りるところまで、お世話をしていただけました。

・波のプール
子ども(11歳)は、ここが一番楽しかったようです。浮き輪も置いてあります。
絶叫系のものありあすが、子どもは泣いてしまったので、注意して下さい。
子どもには、最初ちょっと怖いかも。慣れてしまえば問題ないです!
絶叫系はメガネは外さないとだめなのもあるので、メガネの人は注意して
下さい。私はポケットにいれました。

・お昼
ツアーにお昼を付けましたが、ちょっと足りないかと思います。自分で購入できるので、そのつもりの方が良いかと思います。

Elementary school students are also very satisfied with snorkeling! 小学生も大満足のシュノーケリング!

Reviewed by: Putty

We went as a family of three (with an 11-year-old child) and had a truly satisfying and precious time!

- Getting to the port by bus
After arriving, I felt a bit anxious about where to go, but it was fine as long as we followed the flow. A Japanese staff member provided explanations. It's a good idea to fill out a waiver beforehand. No need to print it; you can do it on your smartphone.

- On the way
We headed there while listening to Hawaiian live music, which really lifted our spirits. It felt very Hawaiian.

- Kayaking
First, we enjoyed kayaking together as a family of three. The child had a great time too!

- Stand-up paddleboarding
Standing up at first is a bit scary, but it's manageable.

- Snorkeling
I believe we will definitely see fish. We received fish food from the staff. It was the child's first snorkeling experience, and they enjoyed it without any issues!

I recommend bringing a GoPro. You can take pictures safely underwater, and the staff can take family photos for you, creating memories that you wouldn't normally capture!

One thing I regret is not knowing how to give tips. I wanted to give a tip to the staff who helped us during snorkeling, but I didn't see a place for it on the boat. There was a box for tips inside the boat, so I put it there. However, when we got off the boat, the staff were there to see us off. Was it proper etiquette to give tips there? I didn't have any ready in my hand, so I just shook hands and left. I hope I didn't leave a bad impression on the staff who took care of us! It was the best hospitality. If I have the chance, I will go again!

親子3人(子ども11歳)で行きました。大満足な貴重な時間が過ごせました!
・バスで港まで
到着後、どこに行けばよいかちょっと不安になりますが、流れに沿って行けば大丈夫でした。日本人スタッフの方が説明して頂きました。行く前に事前に誓約書みたいのを書いていくと良いです。印刷不要です。スマホで出来ます。
・行くまで
ハワイアンライブミュージックを聞きながら、テンションを上げながら向かいます。ハワイって感じでした。
・カヤック
まずは、カヤックは3人乗りで、親子3人で楽しみました。子供も楽しめます!
・スタンダップパドル
最初立つのは怖いですが、大丈夫です。
・シュノーケリング
魚は、間違いなく見れると思います。スタッフの方に魚のえさをもらえました。子供は初のシュノーケリングでしたが、全く問題なく楽しんでました!

GoProの持参をおすすめします。海の中でも安心して撮れますし、スタッフの方に家族の写真を撮ってもらえたりして、普段撮れない写真が撮れて、良い思い出になっています!

ちょっと悔いが残るのは、チップの渡し方がわかりませんでした。
シュノーケリングの時にお世話になったスタッフに渡したかったのですが、
ボート内に見たらなかったので、ボートの中にチップを入れる箱があった
ので、そこに入れました。でもボートを降りると、スタッフの方が
見送りでいてくれました。そこでチップを渡すのがマナーだったのでしょうか?
手にチップを用意しておらず・・そのまま、握手をして帰ることに・・。
お世話になったスタッフの方に嫌な思いをさせていたらすみません!
最高のおもてなしでした。
機会があれば、また行きます!

Thank you very much for participating in the tour. I'm really glad to hear that you and your family had a wonderful time. Also, thank you very much for your thoughtful tip. You can either place the tip in the box or give it directly to the staff; either way is perfectly fine, and not tipping will not cause any discomfort, so please don't worry about it!
We look forward to seeing you again at the sandbar.
From all the KBOS staff.

この度はツアーにご参加頂き誠にありがとうございました。ご家族で楽しいお時間を過ごされたようで本当に良かったです。また、チップのお心遣い大変ありがとうございました。チップは箱に入れて下さっても、直接スタッフに渡して下さってもどちらでも問題ございませんし、渡さなかったからといって不快な思いなどしませんので大丈夫です!
このサンドバーでまたお会い出来る日を楽しみにお待ちしております。 KBOS スタッフ一同

Perfect support for Japanese ✨️ 日本語対応カンペキ✨️

Reviewed by: RIKO

I received some important information before arriving at the sandbar. The captain spoke only in English, but a female staff member kindly explained everything in Japanese, which made me feel very reassured during the experience.

Once we arrived, we enjoyed paddleboarding and floating on inflatable rings, and drinks and light snacks (one Spam per person and some snacks) were available for us to enjoy freely! For those who couldn't snorkel, they could hold onto an inflatable ring, and the staff would pull them to points where we could see fish and even sea turtles. It was a wonderful experience!

Thanks to this, I was able to swim with sea turtles. I had a really great time! Thank you very much!

サンドバーに着くまでに注意事項を聞きました。
キャプテンは完全に英語のみでしたが、女性スタッフが日本語で説明しなおしてくださり、とても安心して体験出来ました
着いたらサップや浮き輪で楽しみ、ドリンクや軽食(スパム1人1つとスナック)はご自由にという感じでした!
シュノーケルではできない人が浮き輪に捕まり、スタッフがひっぱって魚が見えるポイントや海ガメのところまで連れて行ってくださって、とてもいい体験ができました!!
おかげさまで海ガメと泳ぐことが出来ました
本当に楽しかったです!
ありがとうございました!
