Oahu
We boarded the Holokai Catamaran and quickly arrived at a point where we could see the beachside hotels of Waikiki. During the ride, we received explanations in English and were given life jackets. When I asked if wearing a life jacket was mandatory, I was told it wasn't required, but it was at our own risk. There was no worry about not seeing sea turtles, as they were coming up to the surface to breathe all around us. There was also a tour company nearby doing scuba diving. One slight disappointment was that there weren't many colorful tropical fish or coral at this point. However, there was plenty of time to enjoy snorkeling. After getting back on the boat, we were offered chips and chocolate (free), and drinks like guava juice and beer (for a fee) as we slowly began sailing. Since it was December, we went whale watching and saw a few in the distance. Given the price, the service was good, and I was satisfied with the experience. I highly recommend it!
ホロカイ・カタマラン号に乗り込み、しばらく走るのかと思いきや、ワイキキのビーチサイドホテルが目視できるポイントにすぐ到着。走っている最中に説明(英語)を受けライフジャケットを受け取ります。ライフジャケットの着用は義務か聞くと無しでもOKしかし、自己責任。ウミガメがあちこちで水面に呼吸しに来るので会えない見られないという心配はないと思います。すぐ側でスキューバダイビングをしているツアー会社も居ました。少し残念なのはカラフルな熱帯魚や珊瑚はあまりいないポイントでした。シュノーケリングを楽しむには十分な時間が設けられています。船にあがりチップスやチョコを頂き(無料)飲み物はグアバジュースやビール(有料)ゆっくりとセーリング開始。12月だったためホエールウォッチング。遠目に少しだけ見れました。お値段の割にサービスも良く、内容にも満足です。おススメです!!
We had very exciting time. We were kind of scared since that was our first time and we are not good swimmers. But it was very safe and we enjoyed very much. Chieko and Dan, they are very professional and they led us to a sea turtle!
We definitely are coming back again!
Thanks Yoshi, glad you had fun. come again. Dan and Chieko.
I only participated in the hike to Manoa Falls in the tropical rainforest. The other participants were involved in activities like biking and beach outings, so we walked at quite a brisk pace. It's suitable for those in good physical condition.
熱帯雨林・マノア滝へのハイクのみに参加しました。他の参加者はバイクやビーチでのアクティビティも参加というプログラムだったので、結構な速度での歩きでした。健脚向きです。
オアフのバケーション中に私たちに参加していただき、ありがとうございます。またお越しいただき、別の冒険に参加していただけることを願っています。ハッピー ホリデー!
Mahalo for joining us during your Oahu vacation. We hope you will come again and join another adventure soon. Happy Holidays!
We set off in the morning with a downpour, feeling anxious. The weather quickly improved, and my son went fishing for the first time. He caught three fish and seemed to have a great time! He wants to do it again! I also got to drive from the captain's seat, which was a wonderful experience!
朝からスコールで不安の中出発
すぐ天気が良くなり
息子は初めての釣りだったのですが
3匹も釣れて楽しそうでした!
またやりたいです!
船長席で運転もさせていただき
とてもいい経験になりました!
It had rained, so the waves were high and the sea was murky, but I was glad to meet a sea turtle! Next time, I want to go when the weather is nice!
雨が降った後だったので波も高く海が濁っていたのですが、ウミガメに会えて良かったです!
次は天気のいい時にやりたいです!
Thank you for joining the tour with Blue Hawaii Divers. I'm glad you were able to see sea turtles! If you have the chance to come back to Hawaii, I would love for you to repeat the experience. I hope the weather will be favorable next time! Thank you very much. Mahalo!!
この度はブルーハワイダイバースのツアーに来ていただきまして、ありがとうございます。ウミガメが見れて良かったですね!是非またハワイに来ることがありましたらリピートしていただきたいなあと思っております。その時にはお天気に恵まれれば良いですね!!
本当にありがとうございました。Mahalo!!
My 6-year-old son was interested in deep-sea fish, so this submarine was the main attraction for our trip to Hawaii. It dives to about 300 meters below the sea. We were able to see many fish at various points, although it wasn't completely natural; it felt like there were artificial habitats created, which was part of research by the University of Hawaii.
Towards the end, we apparently encountered a whale, but we only caught a glimpse of its shadow from inside the submarine. The guide was quite excited and announced it, but since we were still underwater, it seemed to have passed above us. If we had been surfaced, we might have seen it.
I thought I didn't get motion sickness easily, but I ended up feeling quite nauseous on the return high-speed boat. The submarine doesn't have a restroom, but the high-speed boat does. I managed to avoid the worst-case scenario, but I recommend taking motion sickness medication for anyone who might be concerned. The guide mentioned that the waves were quite calm that day, so I think it would have been tough on a day with regular waves. Just for your reference.
6歳の息子が深海魚に興味を持っていたので、今回のハワイ旅はこの潜水艦がメインでした。
海底300m程まで潜水します。
魚などは要所要所で沢山見られました。全くの自然というわけではなく、それなりの住処を人工的に作っているという感じでしたが、それもハワイ大学の研究の一環ということでした。
終盤はクジラに遭遇したらしいですが、ニアミスで艦内からチラリと影が見えただけでした。ガイドさんもかなり興奮してアナウンスしてくれたのですが、まだ海中にいたので頭上を行ったようです。
浮上していれば見えたかもしれませんね。
私はあまり乗り物酔いはしない方だと思っていましたが、この日は帰りの高速艇でかなり酔ってしまいました。
潜水艦にトイレはありませんが、行き帰りの高速艇にはあります。
何とか最悪の事態は回避できましたが、少しでも心配のある方は酔い止めの服用をお勧めします。
この日はかなり波も穏やかだとガイドさんも言っていたので、普通に波がある日だと厳しかったと思います。ご参考までに。
The weather on the day we went was a bit disappointing, and it was cold when we went into the sea (laughs), but we were able to see sea turtles, and snorkeling was really fun with so many fish! The ocean was truly beautiful! The hamburgers we ate on the boat were also delicious!!
行った日の天気が少し残念で、海に入るとき寒かったですが(笑)ウミガメも見れましたし、シュノーケリングも本当に魚がたくさんでとても楽しかったです!
海が本当にキレイでした!
船の上で食べるハンバーガーも美味しかったです!!
Last time, I used the Star of Honolulu, but this time I participated in this tour because it was under maintenance. I heard that the seating was unassigned, but it can be confusing depending on the group. I think it would be better if seats were assigned. Overall, I believe the excitement level cannot compare to the Star of Honolulu. Also, a lobster voucher that I hadn't signed up for was distributed on the bus. I asked about it three times, but it seemed correct, so I accepted it without hesitation. Well, this was a lucky surprise!
前回はスターオブホノルルを利用しましたが、今回はメンテナンス中との事でこのツアーに参加しました。
席は自由席との事でしたが、グループによっては迷います。
やはりアサインされた方が良いと思いますね。
全体的な盛り上がりも、やはりスターオブホノルルにはかなわないと思います。
あと、申し込んでいないロブスターの引換券がバスの中で配られました。
3回位聞き返しましたが、間違い無さそうでしたので、遠慮無く頂きました。
まぁこれはこれでラッキーでした!
I woke up early, swayed by the bus, and headed to the dock while rubbing my sleepy eyes. After offering a prayer to the sea, we set sail on our long-awaited dolphin search journey. Unfortunately, we couldn't see dolphins up close during the two dives, but we did see them jumping from the boat, and most importantly, we were lucky enough to witness the whale's courtship dance multiple times, which was satisfying! The instructors were very cheerful and really energized everyone, making it a lot of fun! I want to go again when I come back to Hawaii! I hope to see dolphins up close next time! ♫
朝早起きしてバスに揺られ、眠い目をこすりながら船着場へ向かいました。
海にお祈りを捧げて、念願のイルカ探しの旅へ出航です。
残念ながら二回のダイブではイルカを間近で見ることは出来なかったけれど、船からイルカが跳ねているところは見られたし、何より偶然にもクジラの求愛のダンスを何回も見られて満足です!
インストラクターの方々もとても明るくみんなを盛り上げてくれてとても楽しかったです!
またハワイに来たら行きたいです!次回はイルカを間近で見られるといいな♫
Aloha!! JOE,
Thank you for participating in the prestigious Dolphin University tour. We are all very pleased that you were able to experience something that is hard to come by in Japan. There are also manta tours available on the Big Island that you won't find on Oahu, so we look forward to your next participation.
Mahalo!!

what a wonderful tour. snorkeling for a beginner or someone with a little experience. our tour guide made us feel safe and made sure we saw lots of fish and turtles as he knew where they were often seen. going without a guide, I don't think I would have ventured as far from shore as I did.
Thanks Deborah, glad you guys had good time. Hope we see you again. Dan.
My first time in Hawaii, and thanks to the support of our guide, all five of us were able to enjoy snorkeling, especially my friend who was trying it for the first time. We were able to see sea turtles twice, which I believe was thanks to our guide's assistance. The comfort of being able to speak in Japanese and the information about local shops that we received were also great. If I ever go to Hawaii again, I would love to request the guide again.
Hanauma Bay was filled with cats, almost like a cat island, which was perfect for me as a cat lover.
初めてのハワイ、シュノーケリング初体験の友人にずっとサポートしてくださり5人全員で楽しむ事が出来ました。ウミガメに2度も会うことが出来たのも、ガイドさんに案内していただいたからこそだと思います。日本語で話せる安心感、教えていただいた現地のお店の情報も良かったです。ハワイに行くことがあったら、またガイドをお願いしたいです。
ハナウマ湾が、まるで猫の島みたいに猫ちゃんだらけだったのも、猫好きな私には最高でした。
Thank you for joining the Blue Hawaii Divers tour. I’m relieved to hear that everyone enjoyed themselves. It was truly lucky to encounter the turtles twice. We would be delighted if you could join us again on your next visit to Hawaii. Thank you very much. Mahalo!!
きのこ様、この度はブルーハワイダイバースのツアーにお越しいただきましてありがとうございます。皆様に楽しんでいただけたと聞き、私もホッと致しております。亀さんに2度も出会えたなんて、本当にラッキーでしたね。是非またハワイにお越しの際にはリピートしていただけましたら嬉しく思います。
本当にありがとうございました。Mahalo!!
The tour schedule itself was quite fulfilling. However, on the day I participated, I was unfortunate as the tides were high and the waves were strong, resulting in about 1 meter of water on the sandbar. The shallowest part was up to my chest (I am 158 cm tall). It was colder than the scenery I had seen in photos, but I told myself it couldn't be helped. The snorkeling and sea turtle watching afterward were beyond my expectations. I was able to see many sea turtles, and it was my first time seeing such a large coral reef. The water level on the sandbar changes depending on the day, but I believe it's worth participating.
ツアー自体のスケジュールはかなり充実していました。ただ、私の参加した日は運が悪く、潮の満ち引きが大きく波が高かったため、サンドバーの水浸が1mほどありました。一番浅くて私の胸まで海に浸かっている状態です。(身長158cm)写真で見ていた風景とは異なり寒かったですが、それは仕方ないと言い聞かせました。そのあとのシュノーケリング、ウミガメウォッチングは想像以上のものでした。ウミガメもたくさん見ることができましたし、あれほど大きなサンゴ礁をみたのも初めてでした。日によってサンドバーの水浸が変わりますが、参加して損はないと思います。
It was sunny, but there was some wind and it was occasionally cloudy, so I was a bit hesitant to go into the sea. The sandbar was deep enough to reach my knees. Everyone was enjoying beach volleyball and taking photos there. I was glad that I didn't get wet up to my shoulders at that time. After getting back on the boat, it was cold and I was shivering. The BBQ lunch on the boat was delicious. We also saw sea turtles and were able to see fish while snorkeling. However, the strong wind made it difficult to swim as I had hoped.
晴れてはいたんですが風があったり時々曇ったり、海に入るにはちょっと抵抗がありました。サンドバーは膝上まで浸かるほどでした。そこでみんなはビーチバレーや写真を撮ったり楽しんでました。その時は肩まで濡れなくてよかったと思います。船に上がったあと寒くて震えます。船上でのBBQランチは美味しかったです。ウミガメも見れたし、スノーケリングでも魚も見れました。ただ、風が強いのでなかなか思ったように泳げませんでした。
I participated in the 2-hour course. The great outdoors, with both mountains and the sea, is very beautiful. I usually don't drive at all—whether it's a bicycle, scooter, or car—so I was a bit anxious, but it was easy. The road near the starting point was rocky and bumpy, and I struggled with the handlebars at first. Once I got past that, I was able to navigate the course without any issues, perhaps because I got used to it, even though the road was rough. The accelerator is the type you press with your right thumb, so my thumb started to get tired after a while. Also, the dust was quite intense. When I wiped my face with the seat, it was pretty dirty. The instructor was kind and friendly. Thanks to the favorable weather, it was refreshing.
2時間コースに参加しました。
大自然で山も海もとてもきれいです。
普段、自転車や原付バイク、車など全く運転しないので不安でしたが、簡単でした。
スタート地点付近の道が石で、でこぼこしていて、最初ハンドルを取られました。そこを過ぎるとあとは慣れたためか、道が悪くても問題なくコースを回れました。
アクセルは右手親指で押さえるタイプなので、途中から親指が疲れてきました。
また、砂埃がすごいです。
顔をシートで拭くとかなり汚れていました。
インストラクターさんは親切でフレンドリーです。
天候にも恵まれたため、爽快でした。
After about 1 hour and 45 minutes on the bus from Ala Moana, I finally arrived at a peaceful ranch for a horseback riding experience. The experience started at 11:00, and check-in was at 10:30. Since it was mentioned that it was a bit of a walk from the bus stop, I took an earlier bus and arrived by 9:15.
I was surprised to arrive so early, but I was able to relax and take a nap on a bench at the ranch until 10:30. Perhaps because it was a weekday, we were the only ones there, making it a private horseback riding stroll. Since Japanese was not spoken, I did my best to communicate in English. It was okay not to wear a helmet, and I received a brief explanation before getting on the horse right away!
It was very smooth and hassle-free, which was great, but it might not be suitable for those who want a thorough safety briefing in Japanese or for first-timers.
After about 50 minutes of exploring the ranch, I was able to take photos in a spot with a great view. I was really glad it didn't rain. It was a wonderful horseback riding experience that refreshed my spirit!
アラモアナからザバスに乗って1時間45分くらい、やっとついたのどかな牧場で乗馬体験してきました。
11:00からの体験で10:30チェックイン、バス停から少し歩くとなっていたので、早めのバスに乗って行き、9:15にはついてしまいました。
早くつきすぎてビックリされてしまいましたが、10:30まで牧場のベンチでゆっくりお昼寝しできました。
平日だったからか、私たちしかいなく、プライベートな乗馬散歩になりました(^^)
日本語は通じないので、英語で頑張ってコミュニケーションとりました。ヘルメットしないでもokとのことで、本当に短時間でサラッと説明を受けてすぐ乗馬!
とてもスムーズで面倒くさくなくて良かったのですが、日本語でしっかり安全講習受けたい人や初めての人には向かないかもしれません。
50分くらい牧場内を散策して、見晴らしがいいところで写真も撮ってもらえました。
雨が降らなくて本当に良かったです(^o^)
心が洗われるステキな乗馬体験でした!
I participated alone, but there was one other Japanese person, and I had a great time. The snorkeling was amazing, as I encountered not only fish but also many sea turtles, and it was thrilling to swim alongside them! The male crew members were kind, cheerful, and fun. I would love to join again.
一人で参加しましたが日本人も一人でしたが十分楽しめた。
シュノーケリングは魚だけでなく、ホヌも沢山遭遇し、間近で一緒に泳げるので感動的です❗クルーの男性も親切で明るく楽しい。また参加したい。
I went in November.
We took a bus to the location, and the scenery was enjoyable along the way.
After arriving at the port, we took a short restroom break before departing.
The sandbar had water up to my knees, and we practiced snorkeling and took photos.
The guide took some pictures for us, which became great memories.
The hamburger for lunch was substantial and very delicious.
After lunch, we swam for about an hour at the snorkeling spot.
It seems some people got stung by jellyfish, but the fish and corals were beautiful, and I was very satisfied.
I previously participated in a dolphin tour, but this tour offered more freedom, allowing us to relax and enjoy ourselves.
11月に行ってきました。
バスで現地まで向かうのですが、楽しく景色を案内していただきました。
港についてからは、少しトイレ休憩して出発します。
サンドバーは膝程度の海面で
シュノーケリングの練習をしたり写真をとったりしました。
ガイドのお姉さんに写真を撮っていただきとてもいい記念になりました。
またランチのハンバーガーはボリュームがあり
とても美味しかったです。
ランチ後はシュノーケリングスポットで1時間ほど泳ぎます。
クラゲに刺された方もいるようですが
お魚もサンゴも綺麗で大変満足しました。
以前はイルカツアーに参加しましたが
こちらのツアーのほうが自由度が高く
のんびりとすることができて楽しかったです。
The pickup time slightly exceeded the regulation stating, "If more than 10 minutes have passed since the meeting time, call the office," so I was wondering what to do when a cheerful guy and a colorful van appeared. We arrived at the harbor in about 15 minutes.
After signing a document stating that I understood, "Even if you don't see whales, if the boat sinks or if you flirt and die, we won't provide compensation, and it's at your own risk," I boarded the ship.
The boat was clean and spacious. Additionally, there was a staff member who spoke Japanese well, which eased my concerns about the upcoming experience. They were very friendly. Alcohol and soft drinks were all-you-can-drink, and there were two restrooms available, so no worries there.
However, even though the waves were calm, the boat rocked quite a bit, so for those who get motion sickness, I think it would be a 200% chance of getting sick, and even taking motion sickness medication might not help, so it might be better to give up.
On the way out to the open sea, we couldn't spot any whale spouts, so I was somewhat resigned, but while cruising with a beer in hand, watching passenger planes flying overhead in the open waters of Waikiki, I thought it was a nice vacation vibe and good content. Then, on the way back, we discovered a whale spout.
The deck erupted in excitement. After that, we were lucky enough to see multiple whales performing dives and spouting, which was thrilling.
I would say it was a very enjoyable tour experience.
I would recommend it to those who don't get seasick and can enjoy the cruise even if they don't see whales.
If you see a whale, consider yourself lucky.
ピックアップの時間が若干、レギュレーションにある「待ち合わせ時間に10分以上経過した場合は事務所に電話をしろ」という時間を超えていたので、どうしたもんかと思ったところ、陽気なにーちゃんとカラフルなバンが登場。15分程度でハーバーに到着。
「クジラが見えなくても、船が沈没したり、ナンパして、死んでも、おれんところは補償しないし、免責だぜ、」ということを理解しました、という内容にサインしてから乗船。
船は清潔で、広々としてる。さらに日本語を上手に操るスタッフのメンズがいて、今後の流れへの不安は払拭。とてもフレンドリー。
お酒やソフトドリンクも飲み放題。トイレも二つ備え付けなので、心配なし。
ただ、波は穏やかでも、船はそれなりに揺れるので、乗り物酔いする人は200%酔うので、酔い止めを飲んでも効かないレベルだと思うので、諦めた方がいいかもしれない。
外洋まで行く、往路ではクジラの潮吹きを見つけられなかったので、半ば諦めつつも、ビール片手に、ワイキキの外洋を、上空をかすめる、旅客機を見ながらのクルージングは、それはそれで、バカンス感もあり、コンテンツとしても良いかなと思っていた、往路で、クジラの潮吹きを発見。
甲板が一斉に盛り上がる。その後、運良く、複数のクジラが営業ダイビングや、営業潮吹きをしてくれて、盛り上がる。
大変楽しいツアーコンテンツだったと評せる。
船酔いをしない、クジラが見れなくてもクルージングだと思って楽しめる人にはオススメしたい。
クジラが観れたら、それは、ツイてた、ということで。
My husband and I attended the Star of Honolulu Sunset Dinner cruise on 12/06/17. When we had First checked in we were greeted by a nice lady and apologized and told my husband he was not wearing the proper attire for the night. He was wearing khakis and flip flops. The nice thing is they were accommodating going so far as letting borrow shoes and pants for the night. I was so happy cuz we had limited time and wouldn’t be able to reschedule. And it was my fault at not looking for a dress code when I booked it. Once we got on the boat we were greeted by the captain! He was super nice and well dressed (everybody was). The dancers, entertainment and food was AMAZING! Not to mention the excellent customer service they made sure they took care of all our needs. We will definitely do this again whenever we come back! Must do!!!
This was a great family friendly experience with helpful friendly staff.
The instructor was very dedicated in assisting us. There was a simple explanation at the beginning on how to do it, so you can participate with peace of mind.
インストラクターのお姉さんが一生懸命アシストしてくれました。
始めにどうやるのか簡単な説明もあり安心して参加出来ますよ。
Since I attended on a weekday, it was very empty and I was able to slide down the water slide without waiting. Before entering the park, a staff member who spoke Japanese explained the day's announcements and precautions on the bus, making it easy for those who do not understand English to participate. That day, the lazy river was under maintenance, so I was able to use the paid attractions for free, which made me feel like I got a great deal. The weather was also favorable, and I was able to fully enjoy the pool.
平日に参加したのか、大変空いており待たずにウォータースライダーを滑ることが出来ました。
入園前に、バスの中で日本語が話せるスタッフがその日のお知らせや注意事項等説明してくれた為、英語がわからない方でも参加しやすいと思いました。
この日は、流れるプールがメンテナンス中で入ることが出来なかった為、有料のアトラクションを無料で使うことが出来、とても得した気分でした。
お天気にも恵まれ、プールを満喫することが出来ました。
Had an early morning rideat 9:00am. We got three a not earthly, but played with the Sadie and the time flew by! She was such a sweetie. The guide, Grace, was very friendly and informative. The horses felt very safe and well cared for. The views were phenomenal as even though it rained a bit, it was a wonderful experience. We drove from ko orona resort and it took about 1 hour in light traffic. We let the calves,goats,sheep afterwards. It was a blast and i would definitely recommend it. As a beginner, I felt very safe and the horses behaved perfectly! There's great lunch in north shore at Ted's and we also got to watch the big waves while in town.
The female instructor was very energetic. I was a bit surprised by her high energy in the morning. However, she worked hard to find dolphins, and we were able to see wild dolphins. The snorkeling was also very beautiful.
女性のインストラクターのテンションが高かったです。
朝からテンションが高くて少しびっくりしてしまいました。
でも、イルカを一生懸命探してくれ、野生のイルカを見ることができました。
シュノーケリングもとてもきれいでした。

I learned about this tour on TV and thought it looked "thrilling and fun," so I participated with my mother as one of the memories of our trip to Hawaii. We took a bus to the location, dropped off our luggage, and put on our harnesses and helmets—ready to go! I felt a bit nervous as I received the instructions, thinking it looked manageable when I saw it on TV. However, seeing the height in person was surprisingly daunting! I also learned that I would have to attach my own harness to move around, which required a sense of balance and made me feel quite scared at first.
But as I got used to it, it became more enjoyable, and I started to feel excited about what kind of thrills were next. Whenever I felt anxious, the staff on-site were quick to help, which was reassuring. There was a final stage that resembled bungee jumping, but I couldn't do that part. However, the staff connected my harness to the rope, and I managed to swing and land on the ground. It was scary, but it was a unique experience that I was really glad to have. I used muscles I don't usually use and ended up with muscle soreness, but that too is a great memory!
テレビでこのツアーがあることを知り、”スリルがあり楽しそう”と思って今回のハワイ旅の思い出の一つにと母と参加しました。
バスで現地まで行き、荷物を預けて、命綱とヘルメットを着用し準備完了!
何だか本格的だなーとドキドキしながら説明を受けました。
テレビで見ていた時は、これぐらいなら余裕だと思っていましたが、高さを見て意外と高くてびっくり!!また自分で命綱をかけて移動するのも知り、高さとバランス感覚が必要なので初めは正直、怖かったです。
でも、慣れてくると面白くなってきて、次はどんなスリルがあるのかとちょっとワクワクしていました。
不安な時は現地の係の人がすぐに助けてくれるので安心でした。
最後のステージでバンジージャンプのようなものがあったのですが、それだけはできませんでしたが、命綱を係の人がロープに繋いでくれて、スイングして地面に何とか着地しました。
怖かったですが、こういう時しかできないのでとってもいい経験になり、やって良かったと思いました。普段使わない筋肉をたくさん使い、筋肉痛でしたが、それもいい思い出です!
I heard from a friend who has seen various shows in Hawaii that the Hilton's luau was absolutely fantastic, so I decided to go.
The day before, there was heavy rain, and I was worried it might be canceled (it mentioned indoor seating), but on the day itself, it was beautifully clear. However, since it was going to be evening, a jacket was necessary. With guaranteed front-row seats, we also had priority for the buffet, and an extra drink was included, so we really enjoyed the meal.
There were couples from all over the world celebrating their honeymoons and silver anniversaries, and it was fun to chat with everyone at the same table. Our seats were the fourth row from the front, and the dancers were visible from all directions, so I had no particular complaints. However, I was a bit put off by the amusement park-style photo sales.
Whether you go early or not doesn't make much of a difference, but I'm glad I opted for the guaranteed seating.
ハワイでいろいろなショーを見ている友人から
ヒルトンのルアウは最高によかったというので
行ってきました。
前日が雨がすごかったのでもしかしたら中止(室内)と書いてあったので
不安になっていましたが
当日はカラッと晴れてましたが夜になるので上着は必要でした。
前方席確約だとブッフェも優先的に
そしてもう一杯ドリンクがついているので
食事もたのしめました。
新婚、銀婚という世界中のカップルがきていて
同じ席でいろいろ話も弾んで楽しかったです。
席自体は前の方の席で4番目
ダンサーさんはどの方向からも見える位置なので特に不満もなかったのですが
遊園地のような写真の販売にちょっと興ざめしてしまいました。
早くいってもいかなくても大して変わらないけど
確約席にしてよかったです。
FAMILY FRIENDLY STAFF, amazing boat, very clean. A once in a life time experience I would recommend to anyone in Hawaii.
After being picked up at the hotel, we traveled by van to the destination with dolphins. During the journey, they provided detailed explanations about the dolphins' ecology, which was very enjoyable. Even for those who are not good swimmers, they lend life jackets, so it's reassuring. We encountered many dolphins and were moved by the sight of them swimming gracefully.
ホテルでピックアップ後、イルカのいる目的地までバンで移動しました。到着までの間もイルカの生態など、詳しく説明してくださりとても楽しかったです。泳ぎが苦手な方でもライフジャケットを貸して頂けるので安心です。たくさんのイルカに遭遇し、優雅に泳いでいる姿を見ることが出来、感動しました。

The experience was definitely worth the time and cost. Picture taking left a bit to be desired, problem with reflection through the portals...wished we could have seen more sea life...may have just been the Tim of the year.
The narrative was well done.
Very beautiful! The perfect touch for my granddaughters first trip to the islands.
The Lady that met us at the airport was wonderful in welcoming us.
Aloha Nadine!
Thank you for taking the time to review your lei greeting with Briana! She truly loves every second of making our guests welcome to the island. Hopefully we can have the opportunity to serve you again in the future, and we hope you had a wonderful vacation here on our islands! Mahalo!
