My husband forgot his driver's license, so I ended up driving the buggy! It was my first time driving, so it was quite challenging, especially since there were some steep roads along the way. Because of the danger, I had an instructor ride along with me halfway through. After that, I relaxed and enjoyed the sightseeing. Driving shouldn't be taken lightly, but if you want to drive, make sure you don't forget your driver's license.
主人が運転免許証を忘れて私がバギー運転！
初めて運転なので中々大変、途中かなり急な道もあり、危険ということで半ばからインストラクターなんに同乗。
その後はリラックスして見学に。
運転は甘くみない方がいいですが、運転したい場合は免許証をお忘れなく。
If the weather is good, it won't get dirty anyway.

When I said I was a beginner, the crew kindly taught me. Maybe it was because I was sleep-deprived from the night before, but I started to feel unwell. The captain gave me ginger candy, and after I sucked on it, I felt better. I didn't catch any fish, but I enjoyed the beautiful scenery. There was also a small child, around elementary school age, who participated and had a great time.
初心者だと言ったらクルーが丁寧に教えてくれました。前日の寝不足が響いたのか、気分が悪くなってしまいました。キャプテンがジンジャーの飴をくれました。それをなめたら、回復。釣れなかったけどいい景色を堪能しました。小学校低学年くらいの小さな子も参加していてたのしんでいました。

I wanted to take a bus tour around the area for the first time, but I was disappointed that I didn't have enough time. Next time, I would like to set aside a full day to explore.
初めてで中を廻るバスで廻りたかったのですが時間がなくて残念でした。次はまる１日くらい時間を取って廻りたいです。
It's best to set aside at least half a day. Also, it takes about an hour and a half by bus from Waikiki, so plan accordingly.
最低半日は時間をとつたらいいですね。

This was our second family trip to Hawaii, and while we were debating what activities to do, we found this one. After checking with the kids, they seemed excited, so we decided to sign up. Unfortunately, it was cloudy on the day of our activity, but we had a great time nonetheless. My eldest son, who is not fond of heights, said it was a bit scary, but my daughter and younger son, who is in elementary school, loved it and wanted to do it again.
I thought I would feel more scared when going up, but I ascended smoothly and didn't feel scared at all. It was a great opportunity to see Waikiki Beach and Diamond Head from the ocean direction, something I had never experienced before.
We were also lucky enough to see whales from the boat. My eldest son was right above them, so he got to see the whales from the sky.
The staff were kind, and we were able to enjoy the experience thoroughly.
2回目の家族ハワイ旅行であり、今回は何のアクティビティをしようかと悩んでいたところ、こちらを見つけました。子供達に確認をとり、楽しそうということで、申し込みをしました。当日はあいにくの曇りでしたが、とても楽しむことができました。高いところが苦手な長男はちょっと怖かったと言っていましたが、長女、小学生の次男はまたやりたい。ととても気に入っていました。
私も上に上がる時にもっと怖いかと思いましたが、スムーズに上がっていき、全く怖さは感じませんでした。海の方角からのワイキキビーチや、ダイヤモンドヘッドを見る機会は今までなかったため、とても良かったです。
今回運良く、ボートから鯨を見ることもできました。長男はちょうど上にいた為、空から鯨の様子を見れたということです。
スタッフの方も優しく、楽しんで体験することができました。
This time, since I stayed at the Hilton, I was able to walk to the meeting place, but I think it's important to be cautious if you're staying at a hotel around Waikiki, as it might be a bit far. On th

The driver arrived at the pickup location on time and was very kind to us, even though we are Japanese! If you're planning to climb Diamond Head, I definitely recommend going early in the morning. We were able to see a beautiful sunrise! ♪
運転手さんは時間通りに送迎場所に来てくださり、日本人の私たちにも優しく接してくださいました！
ダイヤモンドヘッドに登るなら絶対早朝をおすすめします。

The souvenir shop at the exit is disappointing, so it's better to stay in the mountains until just before the pickup time. You'll have too much time on your hands.

The shuttle service was convenient and made things easy. It was reassuring to have Japanese staff on-site.
Unfortunately, the air conditioning on the bus going there was broken, and I thought everyone might suffer from heatstroke, so that was a disappointment.
The tour wasn't as dirty as I had heard from rumors! (The weather was nice, which helped.)
I went in sweatpants, but I thought maybe it wasn't necessary to worry about that? However, it might just be luck, so I can't say for sure!
Anyway, I highly recommend it. It's not a problem even for those who are inexperienced drivers!
送迎もあり、楽ちんでした。

Anyone can climb it. However, to climb Diamond Head, prior application is required, so it might be easier to join a tour like this. If you can apply in advance by yourself, it would be cheaper to get to the trailhead by bus or Uber.
誰でも登れます。但し、ダイヤモンドヘッドを登るには、事前申請が必要なので、このようなツアーで参加するのが楽かも知れません。自分自身で事前申請ができるのであれば、登山口まで、バスやウーバーで行った方が安いでしょう。
The path is well-maintained, so anyone should be able to climb it. I think even kindergarteners would be fine. There are restrooms only at the trailhead. Since there are no vending machines along the

It was amazing to see the moment the humpback whale jumped!
It was also fantastic to see a pod of long-finned pilot whales.
During snorkeling, I was able to swim with a green sea turtle, and it was just wonderful.
Our guide, Minako, explained everything clearly in Japanese, which made me feel at ease!

I chose a plan without transportation, and I think that was a good decision. With transportation included, I wouldn't be able to go and return at my own timing, so I can make time to go somewhere else right after the tour ends. Since everything—clothes and face—gets covered in dust, I think having a change of clothes would be a good idea.

I participated in a tour from Waikiki by bus for the first time in Hawaii. It was early in the morning, and it took about an hour to reach the beach where we could see dolphins. Fortunately, I was able to swim with the dolphins and even see whales! As an older guy, I was truly moved by the experience.
The guides were all professionals and very friendly. For me and the other Japanese participants who struggled with English, Minako, who could speak Japanese, and Yuya, who handled the photography, were very attentive and humorous in their assistance. Thank you for your hard work from the preparations to after we set sail.
It was a very satisfying tour!

The boat can be quite rocky, so those who are sensitive should take motion sickness medication or stand on the deck during the trip to avoid having their heads shaken.

We were the only Japanese guests on the tour, so our Japanese guide, Ken, stayed with us and taught us a lot about how to find dolphins and whales, the names of the fish we saw while snorkeling, and interesting facts about Hawaii. It was a really enjoyable tour!
Since we participated right after the New Year, I was hoping to see some whales, and we encountered nearly ten of them! I will never forget the excitement of seeing a whale right in front of the boat. Everyone, including the other guests and the captain, was thrilled!
We joined the tour the day before returning to Japan, and it became the perfect memory to wrap up our trip to Hawaii. Ken and everyone else were very kind and wonderful, so I definitely want to join other tours as well.

I have participated in dolphin watching in other countries, but this time swimming with them was a truly precious experience. The dolphins, over 100 of them and about 2 meters long, were really adorable.

I was really looking forward to it because there was a guarantee that we would definitely see whales, but we hardly saw any. There were announcements that the tail had come up to the surface two or three times, but by the time we went to look, they had already disappeared. I didn't get to see the whales' large forms at all. I came all the way here in winter for this, so I was a bit disappointed.

I heard that there is the longest zip line on Oahu, so I participated with my son, who loves zip lining. It seems to be quite popular, and we couldn't get a reservation for the time we initially requested, so we ended up joining the tour first thing in the morning.
When we left Waikiki in the morning, it wasn't raining, but by the time we arrived at our destination, it was pouring. We did the zip line in that downpour, which was more than just a natural shower, but I think in Japan, they would have canceled the activity due to the weather, so in a way, it was a good experience. I thought it would have been amazing if the weather had been nice. Also, according to our guide, it tends to rain a lot during this season, so I think having something like a mountain parka would provide peace of mind.

We participated in a tour that included a shuttle service to Hanauma Bay and a snorkeling set, with three people including a 12-year-old child. The pickup time was early in the morning. It was still dark outside, and I was worried about being out so early, but shortly after arriving, dawn broke. We were able to see a wonderful sunrise, which was the perfect start to the day.
Snorkeling was first thing in the morning, and there were plenty of fish. Although there were times during the day when it was cloudy, it didn't matter, and we still had a great time seeing lots of fish.
On this day, there were no other Japanese participants in the tour besides us. However, that wasn't an issue at all.
Additionally, we could borrow life jackets on the spot by asking the tour staff. Please note that these are cash only.
We considered renting a car to get there, but I think it was better to avoid the hassle of reservations and enjoy the convenience.
I would definitely like to participate in this tour again.

I went in December. It was a bit cold, but on sunny days, it was the best! Since it was far from Honolulu, I was unsure whether to use a shuttle bus or a taxi. I decided to take an Uber taxi. It took about 30 minutes from Honolulu.
When we arrived about 20 minutes before the park opened, the gates had English signs, so I was anxious because I didn't know where to line up for the ticket reservation. Then, a Japanese staff member came out and handed us the tickets based on our reservation name. They kindly explained everything I didn't understand, which made me feel relieved. Since it was December, there weren't many lines in the park, and my 10-year-old son was able to enjoy almost everything.
The locker usage was quite complicated, and I had to ask the English-speaking staff multiple times using a translation app. Some slides had deep pools, and my son almost drowned, but there were staff members at each attraction who quickly handed him a float.
Since it was the off-peak season, some attractions were operating from the morning, while others started in the afternoon or were closed all day, so it was necessary to check. On the day we visited, the lazy river was out of service, which was disappointing since it was the attraction I was looking forward to the most.
We had lunch around 2 PM. The fries that came with the pizza set were really delicious. In the end, we played until closing time. I had also booked an Uber taxi for the return trip, but it seemed there was a lot of traffic, and we waited about 40 minutes longer than planned. The return trip took about an hour and a half due to the congestion. I was hesitant about going, but my child seemed to have a great time, and it became a wonderful memory.

少し寒さはありましたが、晴れてる日は最高です！
ホノルルから遠いので、送迎バスを使うかタクシーを使うか迷いました。
Uberタクシーで行きました。ホノルルから30分くらいでつきました。
開園20分前くらいに着くとゲートも英語表記なので、チケット予約の並びがどこかわからなくて、不安でした。
すると、日本人スタッフの方が出て来て予約の名前でチケットを先に渡してくださいました。
わからない事も丁寧に教えて頂き安心できました。12月なのもあり、園内はそこまで並ばなくても遊べて10歳息子もほぼ制覇できました。
ロッカーの使い方が難しいすぎて、何度も英語対応のスタッフさんに翻訳アプリで聞きました。
スライダーによって、プールが深い場所もあるので、息子が溺れてしまいましたが各アトラクションにスタッフさんが配置されてるのですぐに浮き輪を渡してもらいました。
閑散期だったので、アトラクションも朝から運転してるのもあれば、昼から運転していたり、終日運休しているのもあるので、確認が必要です。私たちの日は流れるプールが運休していて、1番楽しみにしていたのに残念でした。
お昼は、14時くらいに食べました。
ピザセットのポテトがすごく美味しかったです。
結局、閉園時間まで遊びました。
帰りもUberタクシーを予約していましたが、かなり道が渋滞していたみたいで予定時間より40分くらい待ちました。
帰りは混み混みで1時間30分くらいかかりました。行くか迷いましたが子どもはすごく楽しかったみたいで、いい思い出になりました。
I think it would be good to decide on the transportation based on the time, price, and number of people. It would have been nice to have a rental car. The changing room wasn't very clean. During busy
時間と値段、人数で送迎にするか決められたらいいと思います。
レンタカーがあれば良かったかな。
更衣室は、あまり綺麗ではなかったです。
繁忙期は閉園前には更衣室も混み合いそうでした。

This was my first time participating in a whale watching tour. I requested a hotel pickup, and the pickup location was at the Hyatt at 7:25 AM. We arrived at 7:10 AM. There were various tour buses coming and going, and starting around 7:20 AM, I began asking the drivers of the arriving buses if they were the one we were supposed to take.
The bus finally arrived at 7:35 AM, and I felt relieved. I informed an elderly couple who were also participating and we boarded the bus. However, we didn’t leave right away; it seemed the staff were waiting for other participants who hadn’t arrived yet. The missing participant showed up at 7:45 AM, and we finally departed. However, at two more pickup locations, we waited for additional participants, and we arrived at the port at 8:50 AM. I was impressed by the staff's dedication in waiting for everyone.
After that, we boarded the boat, but it seemed we were the last ones from the bus, as the other participants had already finished their snacks. I looked for an available seat and took a moment to relax, but I didn’t know where the snack area was. I then noticed that others from our bus had snacks, which helped me find out where the snack area was.
The staff at the snack area were very polite, and when I later asked about the restroom, they kindly explained in English so I could understand. We set sail shortly after, and the other participants began heading to the deck, so I hurried to grab a snack and followed them.
Once on the deck, I was amazed by the views of Waikiki, Diamond Head, and the vastness of the ocean. Just that alone made me feel glad I participated. Thanks to the hard work of the captain and crew, we were able to see whales a few times, even from a distance. I would definitely like to do this again.
今回初めてホエールウォッチしたに参加しました
ホテル送迎でお願いして、ピックアップ場所はハイヤットで7:25でした、私達は7:10に到着しました
そこは様々なツアーバスが入れ替わり立ち替わり来ていて、7:20頃から到着したツアーバスの方に当該バスかを尋ねて行きました
7:35に当該バスが到着して、ほっとして、同じく参加される年配ご夫婦にも伝えてバスに乗り込みました、その後直ぐ出発しなくて、どうやらまだ来てないツアー参加者をスタッフが待っているようでした、7:45にその方が来て漸く出発しました、しかしその後の2か所のピックアップ場所で、来ない参加者を待ち、港に到着したのは8:50でした、スタッフの方の懸命に待つ姿に感銘しました
その後、船に乗船しましたが私達バス参加者が最後のようで、他の参加者は軽食を食べ終わっていました、空いている座る場所を探して、一息ついて軽食の場所が分からず、一緒のバス参加されるが軽食持っている事に気づいて、軽食の場所がわかりました
軽食場所のスタッフは丁寧に対応して下さり、その後にトイレの場所を聞いた時も丁寧に分かるように英語で説明して下さりました
その後直ぐ出航したので、他の参加者は、船のデッキへ向かい始めたので、急いで軽食頂いて後に続きました
デッキに上がるとワイキキの街並みやダイヤモンドヘッドや海の雄大さに感激しました
これだけでも参加して良かったと思いました
船長始め乗組員達の懸命な働きにより数度遠いながら鯨を見る事が出来ました
またリベンジしたいと思います
The tour bus was a large sightseeing bus dedicated to the Star of Honolulu. If more than 5 minutes have passed since the pickup time, it's best to contact them without hesitation. Since the snacks are
ツアーバスは、スターオブホノルル専用の大きい観光バスでした
ピックアップ時間が5分以上経過したら遠慮なく連絡した方が良いです
軽食は手掴みなので、ウェットティッシュ持って行くべき
Thank you very much for coming aboard our Star of Honolulu with your spouse. We also appreciate the long review and the photos! It's great to hear that you enjoyed the views from the ship and were able to see whales. We are very happy that you enjoyed the cruise. We look forward to seeing you again in Hawaii!
