Oahu
I thought the male server was wonderful with his passionate service towards the store and his work. A few hours before my visit, I had eaten shaved ice, so I was quite full. I checked with a Japanese staff member if I could take my food home, and they wrapped it beautifully. The next day, I warmed it up at the hotel and enjoyed it deliciously.
テーブル担当の男性がお店や仕事への愛が溢れる接客で素晴らしいと思いました。来店数時間前にシェイブアイスを食べた為、お腹がいっぱいになってしまい持ち帰りできるか日本人スタッフの方に確認したところ綺麗に包んでいただき翌日ホテルで温めて美味しくいただきました。
I made a reservation for a date without checking the tide levels, but it turned out to be just when the tide was coming in, and the water level at the sandbar was around my waist. Last time it was about ankle-deep, so I felt a bit disappointed and reduced my rating by one star.
You can check the tide levels at <https://www.usharbors.com/harbor/hawaii/mokuoloe-hi/tides/#monthly-tide-chart>. However, compared to the last time when the weather was mixed with rain, this time there were more sunny intervals, so I felt like I got a bit of a revenge on that front.
The tour I participated in last time had a lot of marine activities, but this time I was mainly looking forward to the BBQ hamburgers. The patties grilled on the BBQ set on the boat were delicious. As for activities, I enjoyed beach volleyball and snorkeling. I was able to choose not to wear a life jacket for snorkeling, which allowed me to enjoy skin diving (the last tour required a life jacket). I also encountered a lot of sea turtles.
A local staff member asked if my wife was a local, but at first, I didn’t understand what was being said, which was a bit amusing.
潮位を確認せずに行ける日程で予約しましたが、結果はちょうど潮が満ちてくる時間帯で、サンドバーでの水位は腰のあたりでした。前回は踝くらいだったので、残念な感じで星一つ減。
潮位は、<https://www.usharbors.com/harbor/hawaii/mokuoloe-hi/tides/#monthly-tide-chart> とかで調べられます。
しかし、前回の天気は雨混じりだったのに比べると今回は晴れ間が多かったので、そこはリベンジできたかな。
前回参加したツアーはマリンアクティビティが豊富でしたが、今回のツアーはBBQハンバーガー目当て。船上のBBQセットで焼かれたパテが美味いこと。
アクティビティとしては、ビーチバレーとシュノーケリングを楽しみました。シュノーケリングはライフジャケットを付けないのも選択できたので、私としてはスキンダイビングも出来て楽しめました(前回のツアーはライフジャケット必須だった)。ホヌにも沢山遭遇することが出来ましたし。
ロコのスタッフから、私の妻はロコなのかと訊かれたのですが、最初何を言われているのか解らなかったのは御愛嬌。
I participated with my 8-year-old and 6-year-old children. The guide was Japanese, and the entire trip was conducted in Japanese.
The activities included visiting the sandbar, observing sea turtles, and snorkeling, and we were very satisfied with the lunch, which was a charcoal-grilled hamburger.
By the way, alcohol is available for purchase, but soft drinks are free.
I was worried about whether my kids could snorkel since they are small, but they provided equipment for children, and there were no issues at all. The kids had an absolute blast.
One area for improvement would be to create a changing room. I wondered about the lack of a place to change on the way back. A few poorly mannered Japanese individuals were changing in the long line for the restroom stalls.
We had to ride the bus in wet swimsuits, and the air conditioning was too strong, making it cold. Since there’s no place to change, I think it’s a good idea to bring extra bath towels to cover up on the way back.
Other than that, it was fantastic.
8歳と6歳の子供と一緒に参加しました。
ガイドさんは日本人で、道中はオール日本語です。
サンドバー、ホヌ見学、シュノーケリングに加え、お昼ご飯は炭焼きハンバーグのバーガーで大満足のアクティビティでした。
ちなみにアルコールは有料ですが、ソフトドリンクは無料で頂けます。
子供達が小さいのでシュノーケリングが出来るか心配でしたが、子供用の装備も用意されており、全く問題ありませんでした。
子供達はめちゃくちゃ楽しんでいました。
一点改善して欲しいところは、更衣室を作って欲しいです。
帰りに着替えれないところはどうなのと思いました。
マナーの悪い日本人が数名、長蛇列のトイレ個室で着替えてました。
濡れた水着でバスに乗るのですが、エアコンが効き過ぎてて寒くなりました。
着替えれないので、帰りに体を覆えるようにバスタオルは多めに持参が良いと思います。
それ以外は最高でした。
It was a fish similar to a flatfish, so I wished we could have changed spots more often with the fish finder. I really think Japanese fishing boats are the best. It's perfect for sightseeing.
カワハギ的な魚だから魚探で見れてもっとポイント変えてほしかったです。やっぱ日本の釣り船が最強と思いました。観光には最高です。
Thank you for your review! We are very pleased to hear that you enjoyed the fishing experience from a sightseeing perspective. We understand your desire to see fish like the flathead using a fish finder, but our bottom fishing casting techniques are specially designed to increase the chances of catching these unique fish. We appreciate your feedback and look forward to seeing you on another adventure!
レビューありがとうございます!釣り体験の観光面もお楽しみいただけたご様子で大変嬉しく思います。カワハギのような魚を魚群探知機で見たいという気持ちはわかりますが、私たちの底釣りのキャストテクニックは、これらのユニークな魚を捕まえる可能性を高めるために特別に設計されています。フィードバックに感謝いたします。また別の冒険でお会いできることを楽しみにしています。
Outstanding a great reminder why peace is the ultimate goal in life
There were some language issues, but the driver was kind. Hanauma Bay was very beautiful and amazing. I want to go again.
若干言葉の問題はありますがドライバーさんも親切でした。ハナウマベイとても綺麗で最高でした。また、行きたいです。
Initially, I only reserved the shuttle, but since I was traveling alone, I joined the tour for peace of mind. It was great that they also took photos for us.
During lunchtime, I shared a sandwich with another solo participant, and we were able to try two different kinds, which made for a fun time. Thank you very much.
当初、シャトルのみを予約していましたが
一人旅なので安心の為にツアーに参加しました。
写真も撮ってくださったので良かったです。
ランチタイムも一人参加の方とご一緒し
サンドイッチをシェアして2種類食べることができ、楽しいひとときでした。
ありがとうございました。
Thank you for your wonderful feedback! I'm very happy to hear that you were able to enjoy yourself with peace of mind! It's great to know that you had a fun time with the guide and other participants! Our company offers other tours as well, such as the Oahu Island Tour (Island & You), so please consider us for your next visit to Hawaii. We look forward to seeing you!
素敵なご感想をありがとうございます!安心して楽しんでいただけたようで、とても嬉しいです!ガイドや他の参加者様と楽しいお時間を過ごされたとのこと、本当に良かったです!弊社は、オアフ島観光ツアー(アイランド&ユー)など、他のツアーもございますので、次回ハワイにいらっしゃる際は、ぜひご検討ください。お待ちしております!
It was ok for the most part. I just felt rushed from what supposed to be half of day ended up being a 1/4 of the day. I just wish hours were long didn’t really get to enjoy the island as family.
Private table is not Private at all, you have about 2ft at the most between tables. Service was slow we were told by the server he was covering our area due to another employee not showing up. It took a while to get drinks or water refilled. They don't have condiments available for your meal. It was very warm during dinner and the sun was blinding. Take sunglasses. The top deck was a great area to get some air. There was a large amount of guest and I thought they do a pretty good job handling the amount of people on board but it may be too many for the guest to have a truly great experience
I was picked up from the hotel, and it took about an hour to get to the port, but being on the boat was amazing! The weather was bad, so we couldn't see the sandbar, but the delicious hamburgers and the abundance of sea turtles and tropical fish were so incredible that my child hesitated to swim. ✨ The tour guides were friendly, attentive, and all very nice. It was my first trip to Hawaii, and I'm glad we booked the tour. I hope we can see the sandbar next time!
ホテルに迎えに来てもらって港までの1時間かかったけど、船の上は最高でした!天気が悪くサンドバー見れなかったけど、美味しいハンバーガーとたくさんのウミガメ、熱帯魚がいっぱいすぎて子供が泳ぐのを躊躇してしまったほど海は素晴らしかったです✨
ツアーガイドの人も気さくで、よく気が付く、良い方ばかりでした
初めてのハワイ旅行だったのですがツアーを組んでよかったねです
次回はサンドバーが見れますように!
We experienced this on the day we arrived in Hawaii.
We participated in a tour that lasted about two and a half hours, and we were the only Japanese people there. We took a boat to the location of the submarine, and on the way, we encountered turtles and dolphins.
We moved to the submarine and began our dive. The underwater scenery was very beautiful and had high visibility, with many sunken ships and planes. The interior was cool and comfortable. There were also bags available on the submarine for anyone who felt unwell.
All the explanations were in English, but I didn't think it was very necessary.
We smoothly handed our Veltra voucher to the receptionist.
ハワイ到着日に体験しました。
2時間半程のツアーに参加し日本人は私達だけでした。
潜水艦の場所まで船で行き、そこまで行くのに亀やイルカに出会うことが出来ました。
潜水艦に移動し、潜水。
海の中はとても綺麗で透明度が高く、沈没船・飛行機など沢山沈んでいました。
室内は涼しく快適でした。
気分が悪くなった人用に袋も潜水艦には完備してありました。
全て英語の説明でしたが、あまり必要ではなかったと思います。
ベルトラのバウチャーを持って受付の人にお渡しスムーズに行けました。
Best time on island when we are here. Highly recommended. The crew is friendly and safety is readily apparent. Shy is a great captain and knows her stuff! The hospitality and food are above reproach. Value throughout the trip and worth every bit. Nothing short of spectacular and the opportunity to see Sea Turtles, fish of different species, and Rays. Best value we have found near the North Shore.
I ordered a $150 course. The flavors of the meat and pasta were excellent, and it was very delicious. I also ordered a bottle of sparkling wine for about $80. The price of the meal included the tip, which was reassuring given the current weak yen. It seems to be a very popular restaurant, as it was fully booked. I'm glad I made the reservation through Veltra. There was also a Japanese staff member at the restaurant who provided detailed explanations. This is a restaurant I would like to visit again.
150ドルのコースを注文しました。肉やパスタの味が最高で、とても美味しかったです。80ドルくらいのスパークリングワインのボトルを注文しました。料理はチップ代が込みで、円安のいまは安心でした。とても人気店のようで、満席でした。予約も兼ねて、ベルトラで申し込んで良かったです。レストランのスタッフさんも日本人がいて、説明も詳しくしてくれました。またリピートしたいレストランです
A place where I played a lot as a child. I wondered if it would still be fun as an adult, and it seems it was! The attractions haven't changed much, but it was disappointing that the lazy river wasn't operating.
子供の時にたくさん遊んだ場所
大人になってもどうかな、と思ったらやはり楽しかったみたいです!
アトラクションもそんな変わりなく、ただ、流れるプールがやってなくて残念だったそうです
Our Tour Guide, Jon, was an outstanding storyteller and kept us entertained with background, legends, history and personal observations of the stops on the tour. He was treated us as Ohana and made sure we had water and juice, delivered our lunches to us, checked that every one was comfortable. At the waterfall trail, my knee acted up so I found a shady spot to wait for my husband. Jon had rented a scooter to go down to the waterfall to check on everyone else. On the way back Jon insisted I use the scooter to return to the bus. I nominate him for employee of the year.
An interesting tour. Staff are friendly and knowledgable. Loved that we got to stop off and see a few of the sites along the way. Soooo many movies had scenes filmed on location. The views are extraordinary as well.
The staff members are amazing, and the food was delicious, but it would have been perfect if there were more play equipment! The staff doesn't go down to the sea, so it feels like you have to enjoy it on your own. However, the boat was beautiful, there were plenty of fish, and we even got to see turtles, so it was a lot of fun!
スタッフさん達は最高ですし、食事も美味しかったけどもう少し遊具が充実していれば完璧でした!
スタッフさん達は誰も海に降りないので自分たちで楽しむ感じです。でも船は綺麗で魚も沢山いて亀にも会えましたしとても楽しかったです!
I was able to explore under clear skies without encountering any squalls.
I had high expectations for the movie location tour, so I felt it was just okay and wasn't particularly moved. However, I was impressed by the breathtaking views during the jungle exploration tour, especially since I didn't have high expectations for that. It's all about not expecting too much!
スコールにも合わず、晴天の中回れました。
映画のロケ地巡りは期待が大きかったこともあり、まあまあと感じ、感動まではいきませんでしたが、ジャングル探検ツアーは期待していなかった分、絶景に感動しました(笑)
期待し過ぎないことですね。
This time, I purchased from Veltra because there was a discount coupon. If there is no coupon, it's cheaper to buy on-site using coupons like those found in free papers. Also, for seniors, even at regular price, it's cheaper on-site.
今回はベルトラの割引クーポンがあったので、ベルトラから購入しました。クーポンがない場合には、フリーペーパーについているようなクーポンを利用して現地で購入したほうが安いです。
また、シニアのかたは定価でも、現地のほうが安いです。
We chose Chief’s Luau for our honeymoon and it was one of the best moments of our trip. Chief made sure we laughed all the time and got impressed by the outstanding performance. Definetly worth it and we are sure we will go back.
Exceptional cruise! Great service; friendly staff; fantastic entertainment; overall experience was outstanding!!! Highly recommend!!
I participated in a tour of Manoa Falls✌️
It wasn't just a trek; we learned about the plants along the way, found wild avocados, and touched a mahogany tree. I never knew the surface of a mahogany trunk, which becomes high-end furniture, looked like that (I won't say, so go touch it yourself).
Our guides, Jason and Tomomi, were amazing✨
We had lunch while overlooking Waikiki from Tantalus Hill.
The tuna sandwich from the popular spot, Andy's, was exquisite.
It's such a great deal since you can eat without waiting in line‼️
The view from the hilltop was fantastic, with Diamond Head on the left, the high-rise buildings of Waikiki in the center, and to the right, you could see from Honolulu Airport to Pearl Harbor, as Tomomi said, "half of Oahu Island."
The weather was perfect today, and we could even see Molokai Island faintly in the distance️.
It was a tour where you can feel nature close to Honolulu.
マノア滝のツアーに参加✌️
ただのトレッキングではなく、道沿いの植物の話や野生のアボカドを見つけたり、マホガニーの木に触ったり。高級家具になるマホガニーの幹の表面があんなだったなんて(言いませんよ さわりに行ってください)
ジェイソンさんとともみさんのガイド最高でした✨
タンタラスの丘でワイキキを眺めながら、昼食。
人気店Andysのツナサンドは絶品
お店に並ばずに食べられるんですからお得感満載です‼️
丘の展望台からの眺めは素晴らしく、左手にダイアモンドヘッド、中央にワイキキの高層ビル群、右手にホノルル空港からパールハーバーと、ともみさんいわく「オワフ島の半分が見える」ものでした。
今日は天気も最高で、遠くモロカイ島までうっすら見えました️
ホノルル近場で自然を感じられるツアーでした
Thank you for your wonderful feedback! We are very pleased to hear that you enjoyed the experience of touching and learning about various plants during the Manoa Falls hiking tour. I will definitely pass this on to Jason and Tomomi. It's also great to know that you enjoyed the popular Andy's sandwiches while taking in the stunning views from Tantalus. We sincerely look forward to your participation in our tours again the next time you visit Hawaii!
素晴らしいご感想をありがとうございます!マノアの滝ハイキングツアーでは、植物の話を聞きながら、実際にいろいろと触れていただく体験をお楽しみいただけたようで、私たちも非常に嬉しいです。ジェイソンとともみにも、ぜひお伝えいたします。また、タンタラスの丘での絶景を眺めながら、人気のAndy'sのサンドイッチを堪能していただけたとのこと、本当に良かったです!次回ハワイにいらっしゃる際は、また、ぜひ弊社のツアーへのご参加を心よりお待ちしております!
Our hotel was called Ilikai, and it was a bit far from the meeting place at the Sheraton, but we appreciated the adjustment to gather at the Hilton Hotel five minutes earlier. Additionally, the locals spoke a little Japanese, which made us feel at ease. Since it was late August, there were only two other families besides us participating, so we were able to enjoy the tour bus comfortably. The local facilities were not crowded, and it turned out to be a day that the whole family could enjoy.
我々のホテルはイリカイと言って集合場所のシェラトンからは少し離れてましたが、ヒルトンホテルへ5分前に集合と言う事で調整して下さり助かりました。
また、現地の方々も片言の日本語を使って下さり安心出来ました。
8月下旬と言う事も有り参加者は我々の他2家族と少なく、ゆったりとツアーバスが利用出来たのも良かったです。
現地の施設も混雑はなく家族全員で楽しめました一日となりました。
It wax a excellent all day your.
Thd Dole pineapple tour was only gor thd morning. At the end of Dole tourr we were a pineapple each!! We an awesome lunch by thd beach and visited local shops and pints of interest.
Our guide was very friendly and informative.
Wrestling would recommend this tour
Great place, the whole staff was very friendly and knowledgeable, thr property was very well maintained . Busses were clean and the drivers were very good.all in all Great place to go to and reasonably cheap for all they offer.
A wonderful event that my husband and kiddos all loved- a memory made together!
We loved the extra inclusions on this tour! Fabulous and easy day around PH
It was overall an enjoyable experience. I had minor gripes I don’t recall anyone asking how we would like our steak cooked, some were medium, some were medium rare, I know it was a busy day but we found a hair. I enjoyed the drink selection and the bartender did a great job. The servers and staff were great. It was rather warm and it wasn’t until the way back that someone decided to open the “plastic windows” to allow more of a breeze. The Luau portion was just as enjoyable as everything else. I truly had a great time, and would definitely recommend.
The water is so different over on this snorkel tour, and they pick up from hotel!
Bring your family, all ages have a wonderful time, and there is plenty of different food choices!
