Oahu
My hubby wanted to tour Pearl Harbor on his birthday, so I booked this tour and we had the best time! Nani, our tour guide, was the best! He was pleasant, funny and just a great source of information - we honestly did learn so much about Honolulu, Oahu, the Hawaiian culture and Pearl Harbor itself! The tour itself was awesome ... tour bus was on time for pickup, we had the perfect amount of time both for the Arizona memorial and the Mighty Mo tour. It was just a really great day, and my hubby thoroughly enjoyed HIS day spent learning some history! Thank you!!
One recommendation would be if guests can get off and take pictures of the helicopter crash and skull bones.
I booked this tour with a Japanese guide because my husband doesn't speak English, but the guide and the other participants were all from English-speaking countries and knew zero Japanese. The tour itself was enjoyable, but I was a bit surprised.
旦那さんが英語を話せないので日本語ガイド付きのこちらのツアーを予約しましたが、ガイドおよびツアー参加者が英語圏の方で、日本語はゼロ。ツアー自体は楽しかったですが、少しびっくりしました。
Thank you very much for participating in the Nature and You Manoa Falls Hiking Tour. We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience caused by our mistake in not assigning a Japanese guide.
この度はネイチャーアンドユー・マノアの滝ハイキングツアーにご参加いただきまして誠に有難う御座いました。弊社の手違いで日本語ガイドがアサインされておらず大変ご迷惑お掛け致しました。謹んでお詫び申し上げます。

Great food, excellent service, beautiful show, and wonderful atmosphere!
I was able to walk through the jungle-like trees and feel the essence of Hawaii, enjoying the rare and precious scenery along with the refreshing air. Honestly, I was a bit disappointed with the amount of water at Manoa Falls for the tour, but the lunch sandwich was delicious, and I'm glad I signed up for this tour.
ハワイらしさを感じるジャングルのような木々の中を
歩いて珍しい貴重な景色や清々しい空気で気持ち良く
参加する事が出来ました
正直、マノアの滝ツアーとしては滝の水の量が
少なくて少々残念に思いましたが
ランチのサンドイッチも美味しく頂けましたし
このツアーに申込んで良かったです

The scenery was amazing!
But 150 is quite high!! Haha
Please be careful when choosing.
Our cap didn't have a mandatory tip, but it was so great that we paid 40 for the two of us.
景色最高でした！
でも150はかなり、高い！！笑
選ぶ方は気をつけてください。
私たちのキャップはチップ強制ではありませんでしたが、最高だったので2人で40払いました

Excellent experience! The Paradise Team was very kind all the time and pilot share a lot of information during the flight. Definitely a must of Oahu.
Currently, due to the impact of COVID-19, most shuttle tours are not being conducted, so I booked this parasailing experience near Waikiki. I had a reservation at 11 AM and planned to take the trolley bus and walk there, but the trolley took a long time to arrive... so I ended up taking a taxi.
There were 10 people on the boat, including us, plus 2 staff members. I took motion sickness medicine beforehand, so I didn't get seasick! The staff was always cheerful, and even though the guide spoke English, communication was easy enough. It was my first time parasailing, and... the result!! It was incredibly fun!!! The moment we took off was the most thrilling. Once we were in the air, it surprisingly didn't sway much, and we had a relaxing time. Before landing, we did get a nice splash into the sea, which was funny! I was so excited that I also purchased photos for $40. Overall, it was so much fun that I want to do it again soon!
現在、コロナ禍の影響で送迎付きツアーがほとんど実施されていないので、ワイキキ近辺で出来るこちらのパラセーリングを予約しました。
11時の予約でトロリーバスと徒歩で向かおうとしたのですが、トロリーがなかなか来ず…結局タクシーで行きました。
船は私たち入れて10名＋スタッフ2名。
酔い止めを飲んで行ったので船酔いはせずすみました！スタッフさんは常に陽気で英語ガイドですが問題ないくらいコミュニケーションもとれます。
初めてのパラセーリングでしたが……結果！！めちゃくちゃ楽しかったです！！！
旅立つ瞬間が1番ドキドキでした。空に上がってからは意外と揺れずにゆっくりした時間を過ごせました。着地の前にはしっかり海にボチャされます笑。でもまたそれがおもしろい！
気持ちも高まって写真も40ドルで購入しました。総合的に楽し過ぎてまた早くやりたいです！！

I understood the meeting time, but my English skills were not sufficient to catch the details, so after gathering, I wasn't sure what to do. As time passed, I thought it was strange and asked the staff in my limited English, and they helped me out. I was able to check the operation methods through a Japanese video and could operate without any issues. They explained the filming locations along the way, but I couldn't catch most of it, which made me feel sad. The buggy ride itself was fun.
英語能力が足りず集合時間は理解できたのですが、細かいところが聞き取れず集まった後どうすればよいのかわからず時間経過しておかしいなと思い、スタッフにつたない英語で質問し事なきを得ました。操作方法は、日本語ビデオで確認でき問題なく操作できます。途中ロケ地の説明をしてくださるのですが、ほとんどキャッチできず悲しい思いをしました。バギー自体は楽しかったです。

Kimo our tour guide was just wonderful!
Highly recommend this tour. Kimo is very knowledgeable about Hawaii, we all learned so much from him! He made the tour so much fun!
Kimo is a great fun loving guy!
I will start with our driver ernie he so nice and good made the drive not boring...The Historical sites of the Pearl Harbor was amazing and ghostbumps..feeling the history that I only read and watch on YT
Mahalo for joining us! Pearl Harbor is a really special place indeed! Glad you made time to visit with us!
The location is about a 30-minute drive from Waikiki, and picking up participants in Waikiki took quite a bit of time. Although it is a hiking tour, there are some steep paths, and since it was raining on and off, I was putting on and taking off my raincoat, which made me sweat a lot and quite tired. (It seems to rain often there, so I think non-slip shoes and a raincoat are necessary.) Also, there are quite a few mosquitoes, so insect repellent spray or long pants are recommended. (I wore shorts and got bitten in several places.) The mystical forest and the fairly large waterfall were amazing to see. On the way back, we had lunch at Tantalus Lookout. I had a pastrami sandwich, and the dressing was especially delicious.
場所はワイキキから車で30分程度のところにあり、
ワイキキでの参加者のピックアップの方が時間がかかったぐらいです。
ハイキングツアーとなっていますが、
結構な坂道になっており、雨も降ったり止んだりで
カッパを着たり脱いだりしていたため、結構汗をかき疲れました。
(雨が降ることが多いところらしいので、
滑りにくい靴とカッパは必要だと思います)
また、蚊が結構いるため虫除けスプレーか長ズボンがお勧めです。
(短パンで行ったため何ヶ所か蚊に刺されました)
神秘的な森と、結構大きな滝が見れて最高でした。
帰りはタンタラスの丘で昼食。パストラミサンドにしましたが、
特にドレッシングがとても美味しかったです。

We raced through bumpy roads in a four-person buggy!! Everyone was screaming with excitement. It felt like a great way to relieve stress and clear my mind. Running through such beautiful nature in the open air is something I rarely get to do, so it was thrilling and a bit nerve-wracking, but so much fun!
P.S. On sunny days, when driving on dry roads, you can borrow helmets and goggles, so no worries there, but it's essential to bring your own mask (laughs).
4人乗りバギーで凸凹道を激走！！
みんなでキャー！！キャー！！大はしゃぎ。
なんだかストレスも発散できて心もスッキリ(^^)/
こんな大自然の中をオップンエアーで走ることなんてないから、
ワクワク、ちょっぴりドキドキで楽しかった～！
ps・晴れた日、乾いた道路を走行する時、ヘリメット・ゴーグルは貸してもらえますから安心ですが、他に自前でマスクは必須です(笑)

Very little elevation gain on the trail, so it’s a very nice walk for most.
The amount of water coming down the falls depends on how much it has been raining. For us there was only a trickle.
They can’t take you to the official Tantalus Lookout inside the state park any more due to current restrictions, but you’ll still be treated to a pretty nice viewpoint overlooking the city after your picnic lunch.
We loved our e-bike tour! Our guide was very attentive and always willing to help! They took really good care of us! The views are stunning!
Would do it again!
There is a ticket counter on the seaside of the Hilton where you can also book the same tour. It's significantly cheaper to book from there, but since we have small children, we specifically chose to book here because it offered Japanese narration. However, when we inquired on the day of the tour, we were told there was no Japanese available. In the end, we didn't understand the explanations well and couldn't enjoy it much. I'm really disappointed.
ヒルトンの海側に窓口があって、そこでも同じツアーが申し込めます。
そので申し込む方がかなり安いのですが、小さい子もいるため、日本語ナレーション付きだということでこちらからわざわざ申し込みました。
それなのに、当日潜水艦になって聞いてみると、ノージャパニーズ。と言われました。
結局説明はよくわからず、あまり楽しめませんでした。がっかりです。
アロハ、レビューを共有していただきありがとうございます。全体的な体験が期待外れだったことを知り、とても残念に思っています。ご不便をおかけしたことを心よりお詫び申し上げます。事前に録音された日本語のナレーションを提供するアプリもございますが、それについてご存知なかったことをお詫び申し上げます。https://atlantisadventures.com/narration 将来的にまたお迎えできる機会があることを願っています。マハロ！
Aloha, and thank you for sharing your review. We are very disappointed to learn that your overall experience was less than exceptional and we sincerely apologize for any inconvenience you experienced. We do offer the following app with pre recorded Japanese narration and are sorry you were not aware of that. https://atlantisadventures.com/narration We hope to have the opportunity to welcome you aboard in the future. Mahalo!

I tried surfing for the first time. They teach you carefully so that even beginners can understand, and when you're about to catch a wave, they guide you by saying, "Paddle and ride now!" After a few tries, I was able to ride the waves! Even in group lessons, you get to ride quite a number of waves, so I felt very satisfied.
*Tips are not included in the tour price, so it's recommended to bring cash. Depending on the group, there are usually about two trainers, so I think it's good to bring around three $10 bills.
初めてサーフィンをしました。
初めてでもわかるように丁寧に教えてくれるし、
波に乗る時は、教えくれて、漕いで今乗れーと、教えてくれるので、数回やると、乗れるようになりました！
グループレッスンでも、かなりの数の波に乗れるので、とても満足感があります。
※チップはツアー料金に含まれないので、現金で持参がおすすめです。グループによりますが、トレーナーが2名位いるので、10ドル札を3枚くらい持参が良いと思います

Thank you very much for kindly instructing my family, who had the selfish desire to surf starting from New Year's Day. A long time ago, when I came to Hawaii, the lively sight of people surfing left a lasting impression on me, and I had always wanted to try surfing the next time I visited Hawaii. This time, it became a reality and a challenge after turning sixty, but I was able to experience it with my family.
The instructor was very kind and explained everything clearly. Although it was a short time, everyone managed to get on the board and even ride some waves, making us feel like we had joined the ranks of surfers. This activity became a precious page in the memories of our trip to Hawaii. I am grateful for the wonderful encounter with the instructor. Surfing is the best!
元旦からサーフィンをしたいというわがままな家族に大変親切に指導していただきありがとうございました。
だいぶ以前にハワイに来た時に、サーフィンをやっている人の海に入っていく時の生き生きとした姿が目に焼き付いており、次にハワイ来たときは絶対にサーフィンをやってみたいと思っていました。今回、還暦を過ぎての実現、挑戦となってしまいましたが、家族と一緒に体験させていただきました。
インストラクターの方はとても親切で教え方もわかりやすく、短時間でしたが、皆、何とか板の上にも乗ることができ、形なりにも波にも乗ることができて、サーファーの仲間入りしたような気分にさせていただきました。
このアクティビティはハワイの旅の貴重な思い出の一ページになりました。
素晴らしいインストラクターとの出会いに感謝いたします。サーフィン最高。
Dear TOSI, thank you for your 5-star rating and wonderful review. The instructor's name is Matt. When you book your next lesson, you can request an instructor, and if he is available that day, you can certainly specify him for your lesson. We look forward to your next visit!
TOSI様：5つ星のレイティングと素晴らしい口コミを書いていただき、有難うございます。インストラクターの名前はマットと申します。次回またレッスンをご予約の場合、インストラクターもリクエストが出来、彼がその日に働いていればもちろん彼を貴方様のレッスンに指定することが出来ます。またのお越しをお待ちしております！

When you go to the reception at check-in time, you are first seated at a long table outside. The spacing between the chairs is a bit tight, so it feels like you're crammed in among strangers.
You receive a complimentary welcome drink, along with two free drink vouchers (you can choose whether they include alcohol). The meals are served buffet-style, and there were also some light entertainment during the meal. The taste was average, but the drinks (cocktails) were delicious.
Before long, we were guided inside the venue to watch the show, and finally, it was time for the Hawaiian show.
It started with hula dancing, followed by impersonations of Elvis Presley, Michael Jackson, and Diana Ross, and there was also a fire dance. The quality of the show was high, and I really enjoyed it.
チェックインタイムに受け付けに行くと、まず外にある長いテーブルに座らされます。椅子の間隔がやや狭いので、知らない人の中に詰め込まれる感じです。
無料のウェルカムドリンク、それとは別にドリンク２杯の無料券がもらえます(アルコール有無が選択できる)。
食事はビッフェ形式で、食事中もちょっとした余興がありました。お味は普通かな。飲み物(カクテル)は、美味しかったです。
そうこうしているうちに、ショーを見るために館内へ入るように案内され、いよいよハワイアンショーです。
フラダンスに始まり、エルビス・プレスリー、マイケル・ジャクソン、ダイアナ・ロスのそっくりさんショーがあり、ファイアーダンスもありました。ショーの完成度は高く楽しめました。
Thank you very much for attending the Rockafella VIP Waikiki Luau Buffet & Show. We are very pleased to hear that you enjoyed your experience. We sincerely look forward to welcoming you back when you visit Hawaii again.
この度はロッカフラVIPワイキキルアウブッフェ＆ショーにご来場頂きまして、誠に有難うございます。楽しめて頂けたご様子で、私共も大変嬉しく思っております。またハワイにお越しの際には、ご来場頂けますよう、スタッフ一同心よりお待ち申し上げます。

現地1/30(月)
母の還暦祝いにハワイ旅行をプレゼントしました。
1月下旬のハワイは風が強いためかなり肌寒く、スコール頻度が高かったです。
ツアーには日本人が3組と、外国人が3.4組ほどの合同でホテルまでの送迎付きで参加しました。
CMでよく見るサンドバーを想像していましたが、着いた時は曇天、潮位も腰ぐらい、水温もかなり冷たかったので、想像してたのとは違いがありました。
サンドバーでは同じツアーの日本人家族とバレーボールで激しく動いたのでその時は寒さを感じませんでした(笑)
船に戻るとものすごく寒すぎて日本人はみなブルブル震えていました。なので、タオルは多めで大きいの、羽織物も必須です。
船上では、日本人女性ガイドさんが親切にわかりやすく説明してくれました。
昼食は船上で焼いたハンバーガー
美味しかったです♪
ウミガメウォッチングでは、見事に大きなウミガメが何匹も海面に顔を出していました！
さらに、人生初大きな野生のマンタにも会うことができました！
シュノーケリング
思ってたよりかなり深く水深は約10-15mとのこと。
前日の大雨やスコールの影響で水中はかなり濁ってました。
近くまでいかないと何も見えない状況下の中で、なんとか大きな珊瑚と小魚見つけました(笑)
さらに急に野生のウミガメが現れてビックリ！
水温がかなり低かったので長居は出来ませんでしたが、貴重な体験をすることが出来ました！
ハワイ初シュノーケルは天候に恵まれなかったので残念でしたが、ツアー自体は見応えあって満足しています！
次こそは乾季の時期にもう一度トライしたいと思います！
I challenged myself to horseback riding at Kualoa Ranch, located about an hour by bus from Honolulu.
It seems to be a very popular tour, as the large shuttle bus was nearly full with other guests heading to different attractions at the ranch.
Horseback riding check-in times are divided into groups of about 5 to 6 people. I should have stored my belongings in a locker before that time, but I had a bit of trouble. I regret not having checked in my things earlier.
Video recording is prohibited, but photography is allowed. It's convenient to have a neck strap for your smartphone.
You confirm how to ride and safety precautions by watching a video in Japanese. Then, you immediately get on the horse, and the approximately two-hour horseback riding tour begins without any practice.
One instructor and 5 to 6 beginners start riding through the woods. This casual vibe definitely gives off an American impression.
After a while, I could see the green of the steep mountains on my left, cliffs on my right, and the blue sea stretching beyond the cliffs. It was breathtakingly beautiful. However, since I was on a mischievous horse, it felt a bit life-threatening (laughs).
As we continued, we reached the meadows that served as filming locations for the movie "Jurassic Park" and the drama "LOST." The scenery here was very moving. The two hours flew by, and I had a great time.
Depending on the horseback riding check-in time, the bus times for the return trip may vary. If you have other plans in the evening, you might need to be careful.
ホノルルからバスで１時間ほどのところにある、クアロア牧場で、乗馬に挑戦してきました。
とても人気のあるツアーのようで、送迎の大型バスは、同牧場の他のアトラクションの方々と同乗で、ほぼ満席状態でした。
乗馬は、5～6人ほどのグループごとにチェックインの時間が分けられています。その時間までに荷物をロッカーへ入れておくべきだったのですが、少し手間取りました。早めに預けておけば良かったと反省しています。
動画は禁止ですが、写真撮影はOK。スマホ用の首掛けストラップを用意しておくと便利です。
乗馬の仕方や注意事項は、日本語のビデオを見て確認します。そして、すぐに馬に乗り、何の練習もなく、約２時間の乗馬ツアーが始まりました。
インストラクター１人と、5～6人の初心者が、馬に乗って林の中を歩き出します。こういうザックリした感じは、やっぱりアメリカだな、という印象です。
しばらく行くと、左手には切り立つ山の緑、右手に崖、崖の先に広がる海の青が見えてきました。感動の美しさです。しかし、ヤンチャな馬の背に乗っていたので、ちょっと命がけでもありました(笑)
さらに歩いていくと、映画『ジュラシックパーク』や、ドラマ『LOST』のロケ地になった草原に出ます。ここはとても感動的な景色。２時間はあっという間で、とても楽しかったです。
乗馬のチェックインタイムによって、帰りに乗れるバスの時間が違うようです。夕方に他の予定を入れているときは、注意が必要かもしれません。

Awesome went with my 2 older kids and we had a blast wonderful people 100% customers service
When I went to the activity shop, the staff quickly assisted me. During the activity, there was someone who spoke Japanese, so I was able to enjoy it with peace of mind. The view from the sea was a beautiful combination of Hawaii's stunning ocean and the whale-shaped mountain, which was very moving! The parasailing landed us on the boat, so I didn't get too wet. I also tried jet skiing for the first time, and it was fun! It's great that you can decide whether to purchase photos and videos after actually seeing them.
アクティビティのショップに行くと、日本人の方がすぐに対応してくださいました。
アクティビティ中も日本語を話せる方が対応してくださったので、安心して楽しむことが出来ました。
海の上から見る景色は、ハワイの綺麗な海と、クジラの形の山の良いとこ取りでとても感動しました！
パラセーリングは船の上に着地させてくれたので、あまり濡れずに済みました。ジェットスキーも初めてやりましたが楽しかったです！
写真や動画は実際に見てみてから購入するか決められるので、それもとても良いです。

I was very impressed by the magnificent scenery that you can't see in Japan! It's also a filming location for movies, so I recommend it as a pilgrimage site! The roads are bumpy with sharp curves and slopes, so it might be scary for those who don't drive often. Also, it gets dustier than expected, so I think it's good to pay attention to your clothing and belongings.
日本では見ることの出来ない壮大な景色にとても感動しました！映画のロケ地にもなっているので、聖地巡礼としてもオススメです！
道がでこぼこで急カーブや坂もあるので、普段あまり運転しない方は怖いかもしれません。
そして予想以上に砂だらけになるので、服装や持ち物に注意すると良いと思います。

It's a place you can easily reach on foot from the hotel, so I decided to go. The staff on the boat were very pleasant, and I thought they were skilled at operating the vessel. I chose the 150m parasailing option, and there was absolutely no fear; it was exhilarating, the view was amazing, and I even saw whales. I highly recommend this option. I had someone on the boat take photos with my smartphone, so I didn't have to pay a high fee for pictures.
ホテルから徒歩で参加できる場所だし、
決めました。
スタッフは船上に2人、とても感じ良かったし、
操縦が上手だと思いました。
パラセーリング自体も150mを選択しましたが

まったくなくて、爽快感があり、眺めは最高だし、クジラも見えました。

The tour was wonderful! Sarah was our guide was fun and informative. It was very enjoyable. I would highly recommend this tour.
Excellent hotel to crater service. Adam was courteous and knowledgeable.
We had a wonderful time on this adventure to the north shore on Oahu. Cousin G was our guide and he did a great job taking care of us and keeping things lively. He was so knowledgeable of the history and the area and all the ins and outs of where to go. He was really funny, too! Waimea falls was beautiful and the next stop we opted for paddle boarding. We didn't see any sea turtles, but it was still fun and peaceful. We had a small group of 10, which I don't think is usual, but it was a treat for us because we could move around easily and quickly get in and out of places. We'd highly recommend this to anyone!!
A little difficult to navigate and see things. You’re on your own, so you’ll really need to be cognizant of the area and where to anchor down. Sand bar was a bit out, but was a great experience. Not for beginners but also not terribly difficult. Bring a watch or phone, the kayaks are very stable and didn’t tip on us when trying to get back in. Staff was great
Aloha Tee Gee! Thank you so much for joining us for a kayak and snorkel adventure! And thank you for taking the time to leave this great review. All very good feedback and we certainly appreciate it. Definitely good for people to know that you are going on your own so you definitely do have to be aware of a few important things. Hopefully our staff did a good job briefing you on all of that, glad to hear it sounds like they were good to you! And glad to hear overall it sounds like you had a good experience kayaking with us. We hope to see you again soon! Mahalo!
We celebrated the night before our marriage on this event. We were a large group of 27. They accommodated us and sat us all together. The entertainment and the food were excellent. The servers kept everything flowing and joyful. Very organized and fun. I really enjoyed the dancers and singers. They performed in front of us and had them all over so everyone could enjoy them. The only bummer was that I specifically chose to go on the Friday sunset cruise for the firework show. However, it didn’t happen due to the winds. I was very sad. Other than that, I thought it was a fabulous experience.
