The sandbar was very beautiful, but it was about waist-deep and was more ordinary than I had imagined... It might have been better to consider the tide times before going. The sea turtle watching was amazing; I was able to swim very close to the sea turtles, and it was an emotional experience!

サンドバーはとても綺麗でしたが、腰くらいまで深さがあり、想像していたより普通の海でした…潮の満ち引きの時間を考えて行った方が良かったのかもしれません。ウミガメウォッチはとても近くでウミガメと泳ぐことができ、感動しました！

The weather was great, and I really enjoyed the sandbar! The staff were all cheerful and entertaining, which made it a lot of fun.

天気も良く、サンドバーを満喫出来ました！
スタッフの方も明るく面白い方ばかりだったので楽しかったです。

It was very good.
I thought it might be difficult for my elderly parents, but they flew safely!
It was my first time in Hawaii, and it seems that paragliding was the best part.
I'm grateful for the safe experience for my elderly parents.

とてもよかったです。
高齢の両親には難しいかなと思いましたが、無事に飛べました！
初めてのハワイでしたが、パラセイリングが一番良かったみたいです。
高齢なんで、安全に飛ばしてもらって感謝してます。

We were the only Japanese people there, but it felt completely natural. The staff were great with small children, and those with experience studying abroad in Japan were very kind!

日本人は私たちだけでしたが、全く違和感なく、小さな子どもの対応も良く、日本に留学経験ありのスタッフも親切でした！

I went on a Saturday in October, and it was relatively empty, so I was able to ride without waiting. It was smaller than I imagined, but compared to places like Nagashima Spa Land, it was still American-sized and large. The shuttle service plan included a cheerful Hawaiian driver who picked us up.

10月の土曜に行ったが比較的すいていた為並ばずにすぐ乗れた
想像よりかは小さかったがナガスパとかに比べるとやはりアメリカンで大きい
送迎付きプランでお迎えのおじさんも陽気なハワイアンでした

All the staff members were friendly, even though they didn't speak Japanese, and I was able to have a really enjoyable time.

The lei bearer was a sweet, smiling, helpful and delightful greeter and the lei was absolutely gorgeous. My wife was very pleased. This was a fitting introduction to the warmth of the people we encountered and I cannot praise our receptionist and the lei enough. SO glad I chose to do this, and VERY pleased with the person sent to carry it out. She was right at the gate waiting, and accompanied us to baggage and to our limo. My wife and her had a lovely conversation from gate to limo. Bill and Betty Rooks 5th Nov 2019

The number of participants was too high compared to the size of the cruiser, making it difficult to find a place to sit during the cruise and at lunchtime, forcing us to stand the whole time. Additionally, the safety of snorkeling was entirely left to the individuals, with no supervision. Despite there being dangerous areas with depths over 10 meters, there were no staff monitoring the situation, nor were there any lifeguards available. It’s concerning that an accident could happen at any moment.

クルーザーの大きさに比べて参加人員が多く、クルージングの道中も昼食時も座るスペースが確保できず立ちっぱなし。またシュノーケルの安全面は全て本人任せで放置。水深が10メートル以上の危険箇所があるにもかかわらず、監視するスタッフもいなければ、ライフセーバーの用意もない。これではいつ事故が起きてもおかしくない。

It was a truly wonderful tour that created amazing memories. There was an American honeymoon couple, and we had a great time during meals. The setting sun was a memory I will cherish for a lifetime. However, I was a bit disappointed that the restaurant crew didn't engage with Japanese people as much compared to others. I wondered if they thought we didn't understand English or if they assumed we wouldn't tip. The tour was fantastic!

とても素晴らしい思い出になるツアーでした。
アメリカ人のハネムーンカップルもいて食事の時も盛り上がりました。
刻々と沈む太陽は一生の思い出になります。
ただ少し残念だったのは、レストランクルーが、他の国の人とくらべ日本人に対しあまりこえかけをしてくれませんでした。
英語がわからない人種と思われてるのか、はたまたチップを渡さない人種と思われたのか
少し気になりました。
ツアーは最高です！

It was absolutely amazing! I recommend taking photos and videos while you're riding. The breeze felt great, and there was no swaying at all. I want to ride again!

ちょー最高でした！
乗ってる時の写真や動画も撮ることをオススメします。
乗ってる間も風も気持ちよく揺れもなくもう一回乗りたいです

I went with the Royal experience with my husband and 2 year old son. It was the first time Luau as a family. We absolutely loved it!!! The chief was very funny, and the show had a lot of audience engagements when the chief and his crews welcome audience up on the stage for dance and couple anniversaries. Food was very good and of course, the Mai Tai was amazingly tasty! Also, the activities before the show were really fun!!! My 2 year old son loved watching dances especially the last fire dance! He did not blink at all! I would totally recommend to everyone who has not experienced Luau but also to who wants more family oriented Luau experience.

Thank you, Chief and the crews for amazing Luau experience!!!

We participated as a family.
It was very fun to interact with the dolphins.
The trainer communicated with gestures, which was great!
There were also some families with small children participating, and they seemed to be fine!
The pool was surprisingly deep, which made me a bit nervous!
It rained partway through, but it was no problem at all!

There was a little trouble with the photos, but they kindly assisted us even after we returned to Japan!
The photos are now viewable without any issues!
Thank you very much!!

親子で参加しました。
イルカにふれあいとても楽しかったです。
トレーナーの方も身ぶり手振りで対応してくださいました！
一緒に小さい子どもさんだけで参加してる方がみえましたが、平気そうでした！
プールの中は意外に深いので、少しドキドキしました！
途中で雨が降りましたが全然平気でした！

写真のトラブルがありましたが、日本に帰ってからも親切に対応してくださいました！
写真は無事見れるようになりました！
ありがとうございました！！

Seeing Waikiki and Diamond Head from the sky was amazing. Walking in the air with the wind was exhilarating, and I will definitely participate again next time.

空から見るワイキキ、ダイアモンドヘッド最高でした。
風をきっての空中の散歩、次回も絶対参加します。

My father really wanted to participate, so I was looking for an event that was accessible on foot from our accommodation, and I was able to find just the right one.

At first, I hesitated because the dinner package was a bit pricey, but I thought it would be a great memory for my father, so I booked a Golden Seat, even though I didn't go for the Diamond option.

Since seating is assigned on a first-come, first-served basis, I recommend lining up early. We were actually guided to the front row, where we could feel the heat of the flames and enjoy the show up close. It might have been a bit too close for taking commemorative photos, though...

I think my father was very satisfied and it became a wonderful memory for him.

父親が是非参加したいということで、宿泊地から徒歩でアクセス可能なイベントを探していたら、ちょうど見つけることが出来ました。

最初はディナー付きでもいい値段するなぁと躊躇してましたが、父親のいい思い出になるならということで、ダイヤモンドまではいきませんでしたがゴールデンシートで予約しました。

先着順で席に案内されるので、早めに並ぶ事をお勧めします。
実際は炎の熱さが伝わる最前列に案内され、迫力満点でかぶり付きでショーを見ることが出来ました。
記念の写真を撮るには少し近すぎたかもしれませんが…

父親も大満足でいい思い出になったと思います。

We participated with a total of 10 people at the end of October. The explanations were thorough, and we were able to enjoy ourselves with peace of mind. The staff also helped to create a lively atmosphere. The competitive course was a lot of fun. The zip line was my first experience, and it was amazing! Thank you very much.

10月終わりに総勢10名で参加させて頂きました。
説明も丁寧で、安心して遊ぶことができました。
スタッフの方も盛り上げてくれました。
競争コースも、とても楽しかったです。
ジップライン~初めてだったけどサイコーでした♪
ありがとうございました。

It was a best choice to select the above ticket. My hubby was called to come to the main stage during the program. Unforgettable memories !!!

The pickup was about 20 minutes late, which made me anxious, but they apologized properly for the delay, which I appreciated.
Although they didn't speak Japanese, there was a Japanese instruction manual, so it wasn't a problem.
The time spent was longer than I expected, and I was satisfied.
The weather was nice, and I could see Diamond Head beautifully.

ピックアップの時間が20分くらい遅れて、不安になりましたが、遅れたこともきちんと謝ってくれて、好感が持てました。
日本語は通じませんが、日本語の説明書があり問題ありませんでした。
上がってる時間は、思ったより長く感じられ、満足です。
お天気も良く、ダイヤモンドヘッドが綺麗に見えました。

The atmosphere of the cruise felt like being in Hawaii, which was great! If you can speak English, I think it would be fun to communicate with various people.

Since it was Friday, we were able to see an impressive fireworks display.

クルーズの雰囲気がハワイに来た感じがしていいです！
英語が話せれば、いろんな人とコミュニケーションが取れるので、楽しいと思います。

金曜日でしたので、迫力のある花火がみれました。

I experienced a group lesson. We started practicing on small waves, and once everyone was able to ride them, we challenged ourselves with the bigger waves further out. The staff were also very accommodating, making it a great memory.

グループレッスンで体験しました。
最初は小さな波で練習して、みんなが乗れる様になったら沖の大きな波にチャレンジ出来ました。
スタッフの方も柔軟な対応で良い思い出になりました。

I have had many snorkeling experiences, mostly on boat snorkeling trips, which gave me a sense of security knowing I could return quickly if anything happened. However, this time I had to swim a bit offshore from the coast by myself for an hour, and I became very anxious and thought about quitting. But the guide held my hand, and I managed to swim for a full hour in the beautiful sea. I had a great time and was very satisfied. Thank you!

シュノーケルの経験は何回もありますが、ボートシュノーケルのことが多く、何かあったらすぐに戻れるという安心感がありましたが、今回は海岸から少し沖の方まで自力で泳いで、1時間と言われ･･･とても不安になってしまい、辞めようかと思ったのですが、ガイドの方が一緒に手を繋いでくれて、綺麗な海をしっかり1時間泳ぎ切りました。
とても楽しめて、満足な時間でした。
ありがとうございました。

My son loves it, and we go every year. This year, Dad joined for the first time. We were able to go all the way to the back during the wave pool, and my son seemed to have a great time.

This year, there were surprisingly many people, and most of the slides were open at the same time, so we were able to enjoy various attractions. Usually, there are fewer staff, and you have to time your visits to the slides when staff are present to use them.

Another downside is that the operating hours are short, from 10:30 AM to 3:00 PM (due to transportation, we can only play for a shorter time than the actual hours).

If we can, I think we'll go again next year!

息子がお気に入りで、毎年行っています。今年はパパも初参加。波のプールの時に奥の方まで行くことが出来て、息子も楽しそうでした。
今年は意外と人が多かったのか、ほとんどのスライダーが同時間にやっていて、色々楽しめました。例年はスタッフが少ないのか、スライダーが時間別でスタッフが居るところを狙って行かないと出来なかったので。
あとは10時半から15時までと営業時間が短い（送迎がるので実際の営業時間よりも短い時間しか遊べない）のがマイナス要因がです。
来年も行ければ行くかな♪

At first, I was anxious, but in the end, I had a lot of fun and was smiling. It does take a toll on your stamina though (^_^;). Oh, to my sushi-loving friend Cooguy, the kanpyo is not made from daikon but from "yugao fruit." I mistook it for dried daikon. I'm sorry! When you come to Japan, please eat lots of your favorite sushi (*^_^*).

初めは不安でしたが、最後は楽しくてニコニコでした。体力は奪われますけど(^_^;　あ、お寿司大好きなCooguyへ。かんぴょうは、大根ではなく「夕顔の実」でした。切り干し大根と勘違いしてました。ごめんなさい！日本に来たら、大好きなお寿司たくさん食べてくださいね(*^_^*)

You can have a great time enjoying the pool and slide facilities, but there was only one restaurant available for lunch, which resulted in long lines and felt like a waste of time for the tour participants. Additionally, the air conditioning on the shuttle bus was excessively cold, which was tough on our bodies after getting out of the pool. This time, we were unfortunately caught in a long downpour and had to seek shelter, but the kids were very satisfied, so I would like to consider joining again next time, depending on the weather.

プールやスライダー施設で思いきり楽しめますが昼食時のお店が1件しか無く、結果大行列に時間を費やしツアー参加者には時間のロスに感じました。また送迎バスの冷房が異常に寒くプール上がりの身体に堪えました。今回は長時間のスコールに振られ雨宿りも残念でしたが、子供は大満足でしたので次回はお天気と相談して参加したいと思いました

I participated with my 4-year-old grandchild and daughters. While waiting at the hotel, I was surprised when a more impressive bus than I expected came to pick us up. It was about a 40-minute drive from the hotel in Waikiki, enjoying the stunning coastal views. Sea Life Park was smaller and a bit less crowded than I anticipated, but because of that, we were able to participate in various events. Before the main dolphin touch program, my grandchild was thrilled to feed the sea lions, touch baby sea turtles, and feed the little birds. Before booking this program, I inquired with the Japanese branch of Sea Life Park about whether I could participate while holding my 6-month-old baby, but they said no, so either my daughter or I had to wait outside during the program. However, when I asked again before checking in on-site, they surprisingly said it was okay. We paid an additional fee and were all able to go to the dolphin pool. It was about $20 more than the advance reservation price. I wish this kind of information had been properly updated. The actual dolphin touch program left a bit to be desired in terms of content and duration. The return bus ride was neither too long nor too short, making for a perfectly timed stay, and overall, I was satisfied. The cafeteria food in the park was also delicious.

４歳と６か月の孫と娘たちとで参加しました。ホテルで待っていると予想以上に立派なバスが迎えに来てくれて驚きました。ワイキキのホテルから４０分ほど、海沿いの絶景を楽しみながらのドライブでした。シーライフパークは予想よりこじんまりでやや閑散としていましたが、その分色々なイベントに参加出来、メインのイルカタッチの前にアシカにえさをあげたり、ウミガメの赤ちゃんにタッチや小鳥にえさをあげたりと４歳の孫は大喜びでした。このプログラムを予約する前にシーライフパークの日本支社に６か月の赤ちゃんを抱っこして参加できないか問い合わせたところダメとの回答で私か娘のどちらかが、そのプログラムの間外で待たなけらばなりませんでした。　現地でチェックイン前にもう一度聞いてみると、なんとあっさりOK。　追加料金を払って全員イルカのプール前まで行けました。　ただ、事前予約の料金より20ドルくらい高かったです。　このような情報もきちんとアップしていただければと思いました。　で、実際にイルカにタッチプログラムは少し物足りなさが残る内容、時間でした。　帰りのバスの時間も長くもなく丁度程よい滞在で　全体的には満足でした。　パーク内のカフェテリアの食事もおいしかったです。　

Very interactive - they do a wonderful job of showing you how things were done back then. You get to help cook some foods (I wish we could have eaten) and get a good look at how they lived! Cousin Billy was funny and very informative, even during our ride from Waikiki to Waimea Valley. The food and drinks did not disappoint either! After dinner the entertainment is second to none - they put on one heck of a show!

We booked VIP and loved sitting up close, but there is not a bad seat in the pavilion.

Our only complaint is that the Toa Luau ruined our other Luau. We attended Toa on Monday and then went to Diamond Head Luau on Thursday and it wasn't even close!!!

Thank you Toa Luau for one of our most memorable experiences while in Hawaii!!

The whole crew was great and the variety of activities made this a great value. Snorkeling reef was a lot of fun. Even on a rainy day this is a great trip.

I’m really glad I chose this tour for my first snorkeling experience among various options! The two instructors were very experienced and taught us everything in great detail. It was also very reassuring to have instructions in Japanese. I decided to rent a wetsuit on the day, and they were very accommodating with that as well. Everyone participating in the tour was friendly and nice, making for a very enjoyable time. Thanks to this tour, I was able to learn how to breathe properly and clear my ears. We snorkeled from one end of Hanauma Bay to the other for an hour. Afterward, they explained where we swam by showing us an aerial view of Hanauma Bay, which was also moving. Unfortunately, I didn’t get to see any turtles, but I was able to see a lot of fish.

色々なツアーがある中から初めてシュノーケリングをする私はこのツアーを選んでとてもよかった！と思います。
インストラクターのお二人は経験豊かでとても丁寧に細かいことまで教えてくださいます。日本語で教えてもらえることもとても安心です。ウェットスーツを当日借りることにしましたが、それにも快く対応してくださいました。ツアーに参加されている方々も皆さん気さくでいい方ばかりでとても楽しい時間が過ごせました。呼吸の仕方と耳抜きをこのツアーに参加したお陰で私は習得できました。1時間ハナウマベイの端から端までシュノーケリングします。終わってからどこを泳いだかをハナウマベイを上から見て説明してくださり、それも感動します。残念ながら亀には会えなかったですが、たくさんの魚を見ることができました。

Well organised excursion to see the Arizona Memorial with sightseeing of Honolulu surroundings. There was also an option to add on more to this trip eg the Missouri ship. A little more time at the Pearl Harbour centre would have been better, however the short time at the actual Arizona Memorial was as per the rules of the memorial, and not set by the tour itself. The film before the trip to the actual memorial was excellent. I am mobility impaired and was using a walker, and found my needs amply catered for, and was made to feel valued and welcome.

We had a great time snorkeling in Hanauma Bay with Blue Hawaii Divers. I am not a great swimmer, but our guide helped make me feel comfortable. I felt at ease even when we were out in deeper parts of the bay (~20 ft, I’d guess). We saw so many fish. Snorkeling is a must-do experience, and I think paying for a guided tour is worth it for their expertise and tips. We compared several guided snorkel options before booking this one, and we found this one to be the best value.
Just some other info: we met the group at Hanauma Bay rather than getting picked up, and it was easy to find the meetup spot. Everyone wears an inflatable life vest. The guides had water and chips for everyone after. They also took pictures with a GoPro during our snorkel activity, which were made freely available on the company’s Facebook page.

I thoroughly enjoyed Germaines Luau especially since it was on the beach.
The food was very good, the show was outstanding.
This has been by far the best luau that I have attended and would
come back and do it again.
