Oahu
The Japanese guide starts at 10 AM.
You board the boat from the HGVC pier and head out to the submarine.
It's a 10-minute cruise, but you can see Waikiki from the ocean side, which is quite nice.
We dive to a depth of 100 feet, so you can see a lot of fish.
There are efforts made to attract the fish, and there was even a quite large turtle.
My 83-year-old mother also enjoyed it very much.
I think it's very worthwhile.
日本語ガイドは朝10時から開始です。
HGVCの桟橋からボートに乗って沖に出てサブマリンに乗船します。
10分ほどのクルーズですがワイキキを海側から見る事ができて
こちらもなかなかです。
深度100Fまで潜水しますので、かなり多くのお魚を見る事ができます。
魚を集める工夫がされており、かなり大きなカメまでいました。
83歳の母もとても楽しんでいました。
とても価値があると思います。

We participated as a family of three. The sea was beautiful, and we played volleyball on the water, which was a fun first experience. Luckily, we also got to see sea turtles, which was great. I was impressed by the staff's kind and attentive service. Oh, and the hamburgers for lunch were delicious too. I would love to participate again if I have the chance.
家族3人で参加しました。海は綺麗で、海の上でバレーボールをしましたが初めての経験で楽しかったです。運良く海亀も見られて良かったです。
また、スタッフの方々の親切でしっかりした対応には感心しました。あっお昼食のハンバーガーも美味かったですよ。機会が有ればまた参加したいと思います。

Hotel pick up included, felt very safe the entire time as you go around a designated course instead of free for all.
Great food, great service, friendly and attentive staff. The show was awesome would love to do it again when we come back in 2019!!
There was a bit of a delay in the pickup, but the driver was very nice, which was great! The couple we were with were all good people, and it turned out to be a wonderful experience.
なかなかお迎えが来ないハプニングもありましたがドライバーさんがとても良い人でよかったです！
ご一緒したカップルの方たちも皆いい人でとても良い経験になりました

This company operates only in English. We went quite far out to sea by boat, and I got seasick. Even if you think you're fine, I recommend taking motion sickness medication. The boat really sways, and if there are many participants, it can be tough being on the boat for a long time. Still, we were able to go parasailing safely! Since I had mentioned beforehand that it was our honeymoon, we received several water landing services... Compared to the other participants, my husband and I ended up completely soaked, haha. If you ask for photos, they take a lot of fun pictures. For $30, you get the data on an SD card. There was a moment to tip the staff, but I only had $30 with me and couldn't pay. I'm sorry... I don't know what height everyone else signed up for, but we flew quite high. Honestly, I feel like the staff doesn't keep track of which group signed up for which height. If you’re okay with heights and want to enjoy the thrill of landing in the water, I definitely recommend giving it a try!
こちらの会社は英語のみです。船でかなり沖まで行くのですが私は酔いました。大丈夫と思ってても酔い止めを飲むことをオススメします。本当に揺れますし参加者が多い場合ずっと船の上なのでキツイです。それでも無事パラセーリングは出来ました！ハネムーンということを事前に伝えていたので何回も着水サービスがありました…他の参加者に比べて私達夫婦は全身びしょ濡れになりました笑 写真を頼むと面白い写真いっぱい撮ってくれます。$30でSDカードでデータくれます。スタッフさんにチップをあげるタイミングもありましたが持ち合わせが$30しかなく払えませんでした。ごめんなさい。。それぞれどの高さで申し込んでいたのかわかりませんがかなり高い位置まで飛びました。正直スタッフさんがどのグループがどの高さで申し込んでいるのか把握してない気がします。高いとこ大丈夫で着水スリルを楽しみたい方はぜひ体験してみてください！

Even if you don't understand English, you can manage to understand through the instructor's gestures. Also, the board is large and stable, so I think anyone can ride it once they get the hang of it.
英語が分からなくてもインストラクターの方のジェスチャーでなんとか理解できます。また、ボードが大きく安定しているため、コツさえつかめば誰でも乗ることが出来ると思います。

When we arrived at the sandbar, it started to rain, and we couldn't see the sandbar in its original form. However, compared to the surrounding sea, the color was clearly different and very beautiful.
サンドバーに着くと雨が降り出し、本来のサンドバーの姿を見ることが出来ませんでした。ただ、周りの海と比べて、明らかに色が異なりすごく綺麗でした。

I'm not sure if it was just coincidence or if it's because Americans are like that, but at first, they provided serious instruction, but in the second half, only one out of three was actually teaching while the others were chatting. I heard that we would finish around 3 PM, but we wrapped up by 2 PM, and I wanted to surf more.
たまたまなのか、アメリカ人はそういう民族の人たちということなのかわかりませんが、最初の方は真面目に指導してくれましたが、後半は雑談をして3人中1人しか指導してくれませんでした。
解散も15時くらいと聞いていたのに14時には解散をして、もっとサーフィンしたかったです。
Thank you very much for participating in the tour. However, I sincerely apologize for not being able to provide a satisfactory service.
Upon confirming with the local operating company, it was explained that not everyone could ride the same wave at the same time, so lessons were conducted in smaller groups to allow for turns. The instructors only taught their assigned groups, which meant that the remaining instructors did not provide guidance to the customers. I deeply apologize for the insufficient explanation regarding the flow of the lessons on the day and for causing discomfort due to the instructors' responses.
Regarding the disbanding time, as stated on the tour page, the lesson lasts for two hours. Including time for changing, the disbanding was noted to be between 14:30 and 15:00, but I apologize for the confusion this may have caused. In response to your feedback, we have revised the information on the tour page.
We take your comments seriously and, together with the operating company, will strive to improve our services in the future. Thank you very much for your valuable feedback amidst your busy schedule.

この度は、ツアーにご参加いただき誠にありがとうございます。
しかしながら、ご満足いただけるサービスを提供できませんでしたこと、心よりお詫び申し上げます。
今回の内容を現地催行会社に確認いたしましたところ、全員同時に同じ波に乗ることができませんため、少人数のグループ分かれて交代で波にのれるようにレッスンを行っているとのことでした。インストラクターは担当のグループのみレッスンするため、残りのインストラクターがお客様にご指導させていただくことがなかったとのことです。しかしながら当日、レッスンの流れについて十分な説明がされていなかったことや、インストラクターの対応からお客様を不快なお気持ちにさせてしまったこと深くお詫び申しあげます。なお、解散時間についてですが、ツアーページに記載がございました通り、レッスンは2時間となります。その後お着換え等の時間を含めますと解散が14:30から15:00となりますこと記載させていただいておりましたが、わかりづらかったようで大変申し訳ございませんでした。お客様のご意見を受け、ツアーページの記載内容を修正させていただきました。
お客様からのお言葉を真摯に受け止め、催行会社共々、今後さらなるサービス向上に努めてまいります。
お忙しい中、貴重なご投稿を賜りまして、誠にありがとうございました。

A shuttle came and picked us up from our hotel to take us to the site. We then got on a boat and they took us to a course where we had to wait our turn to get on the jet skis. It was great for us beginners, as the course was in a circle with buoys marking where you had to go. We felt super safe the entire time. They attach a Go Pro and have it take pictures for the first half and then a video for the last half, which is available for purchase after. I highly recommend paying $5 before for the goggles, they were super helpful in keeping the salt water out of our eyes.
I only had the image of playing at Waikiki Beach when thinking of Oahu, but there are tours that allow you to experience the grandeur of nature, such as mountains and forests. Additionally, for movie lovers, this is an irresistible activity, and my husband and I were extremely excited just to be able to visit the filming locations of Jurassic Park, which we both love.
Here are my impressions in bullet points:
- I was thrilled to see the filming locations of Jurassic Park and Jurassic World in person. In particular, it was exhilarating to explore the sets that were used for filming while riding in a jeep. (Entering the cage of the Indominus Rex from Jurassic World and seeing the claw marks on the walls that were left from the time of filming was the most exciting part.)
- The ocean tour on the cruise was beautiful, and the splashes felt wonderful. We also saw quite a few sea turtles, which was exciting.
- For those who are not interested in movie locations, there are activities at Secret Beach, and you can also ride buggies through the magnificent nature, so I think you can still have a great time. We didn't choose the buggy activity, but watching the tour guests riding buggies next to us made me really envious. It looked like so much fun.
オアフ島と行ったらワイキキビーチで遊ぶというイメージしかなかったが、山や森などの自然も壮大さを体験できるツアー。
また、映画好きにはたまらないアクティビティであり、私たち夫婦は共にジュラシックパークが大好きなのでそのロケ地を見て回れるという時点で最高に興奮した。
↓箇条書きで感想。
・ジュラシックパーク、ジュラシックワールドのロケ地を生で観れたこと。
とくに、ロケ地で使ったセットがそのまま残っていてその中をジープに乗って探索することができとても興奮した。
（ジュラシックワールドのインドミナスレックスの檻の中に入れて、壁の爪痕なども映画当時のものがそのまま残っておりこれが一番興奮した）
・クルーズに乗っての海上ツアーでは海がとても綺麗でしぶきがとても気持ち良かった。
また、ウミガメもかなり見れてこれも興奮した。
・映画ロケにまったく興味ない人は、シークレットビーチのアクティビティがあったり、
バギーに乗って壮大な自然を疾走するのもあるのでそれでも十分楽しめると思う。
我々はバギーのアクティビティは選択しなかったのだが、横でバギーで走っているツアー客を見ていたらすごい羨ましくなった。とても気持ちよさそうだと思う。

First time to the islands for my fiancee and I, and we weren't sure on what to do. So many different activities and excursions to choose from, it's like how do you know which one to do???
Well, we are sure glad we chose this one!!! So much fun in every aspect!! The scenery is amazing in itself so it was hard to complain. But the tour was awesome, we loved hanging out at the sandbar, having a few drinks, taking great pictures, and playing volleyball. Oh and the lunch....seriously one of the best burgers I've ever had!! Then snorkeling on the reef was so much fun!! Got to see so much marine life and also the sea turtles!! But most of all what made the tour truly amazing, was the awesome staff! They made us feel so welcome!! They were super friendly, truly knowledgeable, and all around good people.
If their is one thing I took away from this tour is that, the staff/people make it truly wonderful. This tour is a MUST is you're going to Oahu.
This was the most fun few hours. The snorkeling was great and the guides very knowledgeable and fun. I loved it
Our guide was informative and personable. I had thought that a more complete tour was included, but we did get comprehensive into regarding behind-the-scenes operations. Unfortunately, we didn't allow enough time to explore the other areas.
The driver was very kind, and I had a great time in the car! The parasailing went really high, and it was astonishing, but I enjoyed it! It was totally fine even though I couldn't speak English. 😊
ドライバーの方もとても親切で、すごい車内から楽しませてもらいました！パラセイリングはすごく上まで上がり、驚愕でしたが、楽しませてもらえました！英語話せなくても全然大丈夫でした(^^)

I was very moved to be able to see dolphins up close in the ocean. At one point, a small child started crying, but thanks to that, it seemed like the dolphins came closer, and I was able to experience their gentleness as well. 😊
イルカを海に入って間近で見ることができてとても感動しました。途中小さいお子さんが泣いてしまったのですが、そのおかげでイルカが近くに寄ってきてくれたみたいで、イルカの優しさにも触れられました(^^)

In the wide grasslands, I leisurely enjoyed time with my horse and friends. From the top of the hill, I could see Turtle Bay. The guide was also very kind and provided great assistance.
広い草原の中を、ゆったりと馬と友達に。丘の上からはタートルベイが見えました。

It rained a little the day before, so the water was a bit murky, but the sea was beautiful! The tide was almost high, with water up to chest height, but it felt great! It's reassuring that someone speaks Japanese to guide us! I want to participate again!
前日に少し雨が降って、少し濁っていましたが、海は綺麗でした♡
ほぼ満潮で胸の高さくらいまで水がありましたが、気持ちよかったです！
日本語の方が案内してくださるので安心です！！
また参加したいです(๑'◡͐'๑)

After reading the reviews, I took motion sickness medication, but after a while of flying, I experienced hyperventilation and nausea, which was tough. Out of the five groups with ten people, I was the only one who got sick (laughs). The others seemed to be having a great time (laughs).
Once the boat leaves, whether you feel like throwing up or lose consciousness, you can't go back to land. Especially after flying, your voice and gestures can't reach anyone, and you're just at their mercy.
However, the scenery was amazing! Up in the air, it was calm, and if you were just flying normally, there wouldn't be any turbulence. But we were shaken quite a bit, which made us feel sick.
I personally won't do it again, but if you're interested and confident you won't get sick, definitely give it a try!
レビューを読んで、酔い止めを飲んだんですが、飛んでしばらくしたら過呼吸プラス吐き気で大変でしたo((＞_＜))o
私たち含め5組10名の参加で、酔ったのは私だけ（笑）
他の方たちはすごく楽しそうでした（笑）
船が出ると吐こうが意識を失おうが陸には戻れません。
ましてや飛んだ後は声もジェスチャーも届かず、されるがままです(´-﹏-`；)
でも、景色は最高でした！
上空は静かで、普通に飛ばされてるだけなら揺れはないです。が、かなり揺らされます。私たちはそれで酔いました(´-﹏-`；)
私はもぉ2度とやらないけど、興味ある方で酔わない自信がある方はぜひやってみてください(๑'◡͐'๑)

On the day we arrived in Hawaii, we immediately enjoyed a sunset cruise. There were about 20 people, but only two of us were Japanese. We quickly got into the Hawaii mood, and the sunset was incredibly beautiful, leaving us absolutely thrilled. Since we weren't very hungry on the day we arrived, a light snack was more than enough. The crew members were bright and cheerful, and they talked to us a lot, which was great. There is absolutely no need to participate in a luxury cruise.
ハワイに着いた日に、即、サンセットクルーズを満喫。
20人程いましたが、日本人は私たち2人。一気にハワイモードになり、
かつ、サンセットがすごく綺麗で、最高に感激。
着いた日は、そんなに空腹感はないので、軽食で十分でした。
クルーの人たちは、明るく陽気で、一杯話しかけてくれて、
大変良かったです。豪華クルーズに参加する必要は全くないです。

This tour was filled with lots of information about the history of the island and the people. Pearl Harbour is a must see.
I came to Hawaii with my two daughters, and it was our first time parasailing. My daughters are afraid of heights, but the staff were so fun that we had a great experience. If we have the chance, I would like to do it again. Thank you very much.

My wife and I had a great time. The scenery was amazing and we got some really good pictures. The food was really good also.
I participated on the day of arrival. I'm glad I could see both the fireworks and the sunset. I ordered the lobster, but it was too much to finish, which was a shame... I think the buffet-only plan would have been sufficient. The staff were very friendly, and I had a great time.
到着当日に参加しました。
花火もサンセットも観れてよかったです。
お料理はロブスター付けましたけど、多くて食べきれずもったいなかったです。。。
ビュッフェだけのプランでも充分だったかな。

Great day. Whilst informative the tour guide did not stop talking for the whole time the bus was moving... He needs to review what he is passing on to the people.
It's unfortunate that the morning shuttle bus was too cold due to the air conditioning (laughs). For lunch, the buffet is better inside the house rather than outside where the birds come; a spacious building would be nice!
On a positive note, there was a mix-up with the order of activities upon arrival, but it was quickly corrected. After that, we smoothly enjoyed the attractions and had a memorable and fun day (the whole family is very grateful).
残念な事⤵…朝イチの送迎バスがエアコン利きすぎで寒かった(笑)、昼食のバイキングは鳥が来る外ではなくhouse中が良いですよ広い建屋がいいなぁ～
素晴らしい事…到着後食い違いでアクティビィの順番違いは有りましたが直ぐに修正、その後はスムーズにアトラクションをenjoy 想い出に残る楽しい1日を過ごさせて頂きました(家族全員大感謝です)

Pearl harbor is amazing, the tour around the city was good as well.Our tour guide was great and had lots of information to share about each site.
Traveled with my daughter and we both had an amazing day at the sand bar. Crew was great. We saw lots of sea turtles which I really loved.
We only participated in jet skiing, but my husband and I had a great time riding together. It was nice that we could switch drivers along the way. We met at the location with a rental car, and it was easy to find.
