Oahu
I was disappointed to find that about three attractions were not operational. Because of that, the attractions that were open had long lines, and I couldn't enjoy myself enough. There was no information or apology regarding this situation, which was quite unbelievable. It may be common in America, but to be honest, it doesn't match the price. I cannot recommend it at all.
動いていない施設が3つくらいあってガッカリでした。そのせいか動いてる施設も行列が長くて十分遊べませんでした。そのことについて案内もなければ、謝罪も無くて、ちょっと信じられない感じです。アメリカでは当たり前かもしれませんが、ハッキリ言って料金に見合わないです。とてもお勧めできません。
Very hospitable crew of 3 with a great sense of humor took us on a great evening cruise with exceptionally large waves and actually put up a sail! Loved the crew, the other passengers who were interesting, and the wonderful food from local caterer. Be prepared to leave your shoes on the dock and for some water spray and wind, but also for a great sail.
My first time paragliding! I usually don't have good experiences with activities, but this time I was completely satisfied! The timing was smooth from the hotel, so I didn't feel stressed and was able to unwind.
生まれて初めてのパラセーリング、毎回アクテビティでいい思いがなく終わっていたが今回はすべて満足‼️時間もホテルから出て円滑に進んだのでストレスも溜まらず発散出来ました
This was cool, but they advertise alot on their Instagram with pictures of feet hanging out of the Helicopter, but they do not allow those kind of pictures at all.
I highly advice atleast a sweater and long pants since it does get cold
We participated as a family of five, and at first, we were anxious because we couldn't speak English. However, our group consisted entirely of Japanese people, so we had one male staff member who could speak some Japanese, along with one male staff member and one female staff member who spoke only English. All the staff were cheerful and polite, and we enjoyed ziplining while feeling the pleasant breeze in the great outdoors. The price is somewhat high, but I believe it's necessary to operate on such a scale. I'm sure you will feel satisfied.
家族5名で参加し英語が話せないので最初は不安でしたが私達のグループは全員日本人だったので多少日本語ができる男性スタッフ1名と、英語のみ話す男性1名、女性1名のスタッフがついてくださいました。どのスタッフも明るく丁寧に接して下さり、大自然の中で気持ちの良い風を感じながらのジップラインでした。お値段は多少かかりますがこれだけの規模を運営する上では必要だと思いました。きっと満足感は得られると思います。
The children were scared at first, but they quickly became excited and had fun. Since we took motion sickness medication beforehand, there was no seasickness. I would like to do it again.
子供達も最初は怖がっていましたが、すぐに楽しくなり興奮していました。事前に酔い止め薬を服用していたので船酔いもなかったです。またやってみたいです。
You have plenty of time on the submarine to fully enjoy the scenery underwater. I was able to see sharks and sea turtles! (Maybe I was just lucky.) The elementary school children also seemed to have fun looking for fish. The boat before switching to the submarine swayed quite a bit, so I noticed a few people feeling seasick before the main event. I recommend taking motion sickness precautions for those who are not confident on boats.
潜水艦に乗っている時間はたっぷりあり、海の中の景色を十分楽しめます。鮫やウミガメも見れました!(運が良かったのかも。)小学生の子どもたちも魚を探したり楽しそうでした。潜水艦に乗り換える前の船が結構揺れるので、メインイベントの前に船酔いしている人もちらほら見かけました。船に自信のない人は酔い止め対策をおすすめします。
アロハ、そしてあなたの五つ星のレビューを共有していただきありがとうございます!私たちは、あなたが海の100フィート以上の深さで私たちの潜水艦を探検することを楽しんでいただけたと聞いてとても嬉しいです。マハロ!
Aloha and thank you for sharing your five-star review! We are so happy to hear that you enjoyed exploring in our submarine over 100 feet below the sea. Mahalo!
I flew with my two children. They were thrilled to be flying higher than the birds. They said they definitely want to do it again when we come back to Hawaii.
子供と三人で飛びました。鳥より高い位置で飛べたことに、子供が感激していました。またハワイに来たら絶対やりたいと言っていました。
Since I always played golf, I decided to try surfing for the first time while in Hawaii. When I went to the surf shop offering lessons, there was quite a crowd waiting, which was encouraging. It was a semi-private lesson, but I felt there wasn't much difference from a group lesson. The timing for paddling with the waves was entirely up to the coach. Since I was on a longboard, I was able to stand up right from the start, which was fun. However, paddling out to the ocean was tough, and that was quite challenging. I'm excited that there are more options in Hawaii to enjoy in the future.
いつもゴルフばかりだったので、せっかくのハワイなのだからと、はじめてサーフィンに挑戦しました。
催行しているサーフショップに行くと、かなりの人数が待っていて盛況。セミプライベートレッスンでしたが、グループレッスンでもさほど違いはないように思います。
波に背にしてパドリングするタイミングは全てコーチ任せ。ロングボードなので、初めから立つことができて楽しかったです。ただ、沖に向かってのパドリングは辛くて、これだけは大変でした。
ハワイの選択肢が増えてこれからも楽しみです。
Staff was wonderful and funny! Excellent time and views! A must do at 1000 feet!!!
We participated as a family of four. The silence at 150 meters above ground was very pleasant. Even those who were hesitant to join said it was amazing! They were very satisfied and glad they did it.
家族4人で参加しました。
150m上空は無音でとても心地が良かったです。
参加を躊躇していた者も最高!やって良かったと大変満足してました。
I participated in this tour for the first time in seven years. The members were the same as seven years ago, so it was fun to see people who had changed in appearance and those who hadn’t changed at all.
Now, the guide who picked us up in the morning spoke suspicious Japanese, and during the car ride, he explained everything in English without any warnings, and we arrived at the destination. Even there, the explanations were in English, and just when I was wondering about it, he finally explained in Japanese, which relieved my whole family.
At the local boat, they provided proper assistance in Japanese. What was wonderful was that we had about an hour for sandbar, turtle watching, and snorkeling, so even my wife, who can't swim, had a great time snorkeling with a life jacket and float. Perhaps we looked like we were having too much fun, as my parents in their 70s decided to try snorkeling for the first time! However, they needed help right away ( ;∀; ). They said they were still okay, but I think it was a nice decision to get assistance.
For lunch, we had hamburgers, which were very delicious, and I wanted a second helping. Also, the crew here was very cheerful and lifted our spirits with their "Aloha!" greetings. The guide who picked us up in the morning played the guitar and sang during lunchtime, which seemed to be part of his job. Overall, it was a great experience. I would like to participate again when my daughter is able to snorkel.
このツアーに7年ぶりに参加しました。
メンバーも7年前と変わらないメンバーでしたので、見た目が変わった人やまったく変わらない人など楽しかったです。
さて、今回も朝迎えに来たガイドさんが、あやしい日本語、車内では、英語で全部説明、何の注意点もなく、現地へ到着しました。現地でも英語での説明で、あれ?と思っていたところ、やっと日本語で説明して頂いたので、家族全員ほっと一安心。
現地の船では日本語できちんと対応してもらいました。すばらしいのは、サンドバーとカメウォッチ、さらにはシュノーケルが1Hぐらいあったので、泳げない嫁でも、ライフジャケットと浮棒?でとても楽しくシュノーケルをしていました。今回あまりに私たち夫婦が楽しそうにみえたのか?、70代の両親がシュノーケリングに初挑戦!!したところ・・・すぐにヘルプで助けられました( ;∀;)
本人曰くまだまだ大丈夫だったはずと言っていますが、やっぱり助けて頂いたのはナイス判断だったと思います。
ランチは、ハンバーガーでしたがとてもおいしく、おかわりがほしいくらいでした。また、ここのクルーはとても陽気でアローーーーーーーハァーのあいさつで気分を楽しくしてくれました。朝迎えに来たガイドは、ランチタイムに、ギターを弾いて歌っていましたが、結局それが仕事みたいでした。全体的にとても良かったです。娘がシュノーケリングできるようになったらまた参加したいと思いました。
Motion sickness medication is a must. The view from the boat is great, and riding in the submarine is fun, but there weren't many fish on the seabed... I thought they had artificially created a fishing ground on the sandy bottom. It's a 45-minute experience of watching the little fish gather there. Since it takes about three hours, please weigh it against other events you want to do before deciding to participate!
酔い止めは必須です。船からの眺めは良いし、潜水艦に乗るのも楽しいのですが、海底に魚は…あまりいませんでした。
もともと砂地に人工的に魚場を作ったんだなと思いました。そこに集まる小さなお魚達を見つめる45分です。
時間は3時間ほど取られるので、他にやりたいイベントと天秤かけて参加を決めて下さいね!
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。あなたの潜水体験が期待していたものではなかったと聞いて残念です。時には、自然は予測不可能で、海洋生物の目撃情報は時間ごとに変わることがあります。また、アトランティスはハワイの海洋世界を保護し、保存することにコミットしており、そのために慎重に船や他の人工リーフシステムを清掃して沈め、ワイキキ沖の海洋生物を育てる手助けをしています。マハロ!
Aloha! Thank you for taking the time to share a review. We are sorry to hear that your submarine dive was not the experience you expected. At times, Mother Nature is unpredictable and sightings of marine life can vary from hour to hour. Atlantis is also committed to helping to preserve and protect Hawaii's marine world which is why we have carefully cleaned and sunk ships and other artificial reef systems to help build marine life off the coast of Waikiki. Mahalo!
I participated in this when I traveled with my family. The picking in Waikiki went smoothly without any issues. The guidance was entirely in English, but it wasn't a problem even if you didn't understand it. As for the tour, I was able to see a whale spouting water at the very end, which was fantastic. I was very satisfied. However, due to the weather, the boat rocked quite a bit, so everyone felt a bit seasick, which was a little tough.
家族で旅行した時に参加しました。ワイキキでのピッキングも問題なくスムーズでした。案内は終始英語ですが、わからなくても特別問題ないです。肝心のツアーですが、最後の最後で潮を吹き上げる鯨の姿を見る事ができました。大変満足です。ただ、天候の影響か、船がかなり激しく揺れたため、全員船酔い気味で少し辛かったです。
I tried surfing for the first time. They teach you carefully, so I think anyone can do it. However, I couldn't stand up even once. It was about two hours in the morning, but my whole body is sore. You can't bring your phone or camera, so if you have a partner, I recommend having them take pictures for you. Of course, the shop staff will take videos and photos, but they sell them for over $50, which is a bit expensive. My wife also participated, but she got seasick and had to give up early. If you're prone to motion sickness, you'll need some medication for that.
初めてサーフィンをしました。丁寧に教えてくれるので、誰でもできると思います。ただ私は一度も立ち上がれませんでした。午前中2時間ほどでしたが、全身が筋肉痛です。携帯やカメラは持って行けないので、もしパートナーがいれば取ってもらうことをお勧めします。もちろんショップのかたが動画と写真を撮ってくれますが、50ドル以上で販売されますので、少し高いですね。妻も参加しましたが、船酔いのようになってしまい早々にギブアップ。酔いやすい方は酔い止めも必要ですね。
It was an immersive tour that allowed us to fully enjoy the great nature of Kualoa. There was no wasted time, and we were able to see all the highlights. However, it was stated that long pants were absolutely necessary, but they weren't needed at all (they might be required for horseback riding). Additionally, a buffet-style lunch was included, but honestly, it wasn't very tasty. I think it's better to bring some light snacks to eat. There are plenty of spots for taking photos, but for the jungle tour, the left side of the front seats is the best for taking pictures!
クアロアの大自然を満喫できる濃密なツアーでした。時間に無駄がなく、見どころを見れます。ただ、長ズボンが必ず必要と書いてありましたが、まったく必要ありませんでした。(乗馬には必要かも)また、ビュッフェスタイルの昼食がついていましたが、正直美味しくありません。スナックなど軽く食べれるものを持っていった方が良いかと思います。写真を撮るところもいっぱいありますが、ジャングルツアーの座席は前の方の左側が写真撮りやすいです!
I wasn't aware of the news about the sightseeing helicopter crash on the Big Island that resulted in six deaths, but even if I had known, I would have participated. Everyone around me couldn't speak Japanese, but there was no need to worry. Before departing from the airport, you have to store your luggage in a locker, which requires four quarters. You can exchange money for that. They also offer a case to hang your smartphone around your neck for $10, but the lady next to me initially took photos but eventually stopped. The pilot's explanations can be heard through headphones, and you can communicate with the pilot via a microphone, but even at maximum volume, it was hard to hear. Also, even in clear weather during this season, it gets cold up in the air, so long sleeves are essential, but a down jacket wasn't necessary. We flew at about 1,500 to 1,800 feet. It seems to be a characteristic of the helicopter that we didn't enter any clouds. The flight path took us from the airport, circling counterclockwise around the east side of the island for about 50 minutes. Fortunately, there was no turbulence. It was a great experience. It is a bit pricey, but I recommend it.
ハワイ島で観光ヘリが墜落して6名死亡のニュースは知らなかったが、知っていても参加していたでしょう。周りは日本語がしゃべれない方ばかりでしたが心配ありません。空港出発前に荷物はロッカーに預けさせられますが25セント硬貨4枚いります。両替できます。またスマホを首からかけられるケースを10ドルで貸してくれますが、隣のご婦人は最初こそ写真を撮っていましたがそのうちやめてましたね。上空でのパイロットの説明はヘッドフォンで聞こえますしマイクを通してパイロットと会話ができますが、ボリューム最大にしても聞こえにくいです。またこの季節晴天でも上空は寒く長袖は必須ですがダウンジャケットまでは必要ありませんでした。大体1500~1800フィートを飛行します。ヘリコプターの特性でしょうが雲の中には入りません。飛行経路は空港を離陸して島の東側を反時計回りに回って50分ぐらいでしょうか。揺れなかったのが幸いでした。いい経験になりました。値段はしますがおすすめです。
Everything was amazing.
I want to go to the sandbar again.
I was also surprised by the high quality of the hamburgers. Both the taste and the portion size were perfect.
It was great to have a wide variety of drinks as well.
Everything was good, but the instruction on how to use the snorkel really stood out. I felt like I was having fun for the first time with snorkeling! I was able to swim with many fish.
I had my kids with me, and there were preparations like children's goggles and life jackets, so the kids enjoyed it too.
It was a really great tour. I highly recommend it.
全てが最高でした。
サンドバーまた行きたいなって思いました。
ハンバーガーのクオリティの高さにも驚きました。味、ボリュームどちらも満点です。
飲み物も種類たくさんで良かったです。
全て良かったのですが、シュノーケルの扱い方を教えて頂いたのがポイントアップです。シュノーケルが初めて楽しい!って思えました。たくさんの魚と一緒に泳げました。
子供連れでしたが、子供用のゴーグル、ライフジャケットなど準備があり子供も楽しめました。
すごく良いツアーでした。オススメです。
As mentioned in the experience, very little Japanese was understood, and the guide finished explaining in English before the tour began. The guide started without being able to communicate with us Japanese participants... Perhaps it was a warning? Other Japanese participants also looked confused. I felt anxious. We hardly speak any English. We were flustered because we couldn't understand the explanations about our luggage keys. Later, I found out that there was one person who could speak Japanese. After that, I felt relieved. Also, the buggy driver didn't understand Japanese at all, but when we managed to convey that we couldn't speak English, he made a great effort to communicate with us, for which we are grateful! The buggy ride was amazing! We returned to the hotel covered in sand due to the heavy dust, but the refreshing feeling was incredible! Thank you very much! ^_^
体験談にあった通り、日本語はほとんど通じず、ガイドさんは説明を英語で話し終わり、ツアーがはじまりました。
ガイドの方も私たち日本人に通じていないままスタート…。多分注意事項?他の日本人の方もポカーンとしていました。不安でした。
私たちはほとんど英語は話せません。荷物の鍵など説明がわからず、アタフタしてしまいました。
後になってわかったのですが、1名だけ日本語を話せる方がいました。
それからは安心できました。
あと、バギーの方も全く日本語がわからない方でしたが、英語を喋れないと何とか伝えると、一生懸命私たちに伝える努力をしてくれて感謝です!
バギー最高でした!かなりの砂埃で全身砂まみれでホテルに帰りましたが、爽快感半端ないです!
ありがとうございました^_^
A fantastic kayaking experience with great service! I had a lot of fun! Also, the leisurely pace of the tour around Flat Island was very pleasant, and I would love to request Tomo again! Thank you very much!
サービス精神満点のカヤックの波乗り体験!かなり楽しかったです!あと、フラットアイランドのゆったりペースの案内もとても気持ちよく、またともさんにお願いしたいです!
ありがとうございました!

The slider was closed about halfway. Also, the wave pool was only available for about two hours after opening, and afterwards it was used as a pool for bodyboarding.
スライダーが半分くらいが閉まってました。また、波の出るプールも開園から2時間位だけ使えましたが、その後はボディーボード用のプールとして使われました。
The view was absolutely wonderful. Our 1 hour UTV ride went by quickly. Our guide was very nice and she took several cool photos for us. The weather was perfect and we would return again on our next trip.
The driver of the shuttle is very helpful and funny. The design of the activity is very family friendly. Kids won't feel too tired or bored.
There are many similar tours, and I was a bit confused during the pickup. Since there are few staff members who can speak Japanese, it might be tough if you can't speak at all.
The show itself was enjoyable, but there were some experiences that were not available on the day.
似たようなツアーが多く、ピックアップ時に少し迷った。
日本語を対応できるスタッフが少ない、もしくはいないため多少なりと喋れないと辛いかもしれない。
ショー自体は楽しかったが、体験できるものが当日ないものもあった。
I had heard that the chances of encountering whales in December are low, so I didn't have high expectations and planned for a relaxing cruise instead. However, I was lucky enough to encounter a mother and calf whale. I'm glad I participated in the tour.
12月は、遭遇出来ない確率が多いと聞いていたのでクルージングのつもりであまり期待していませんでした。
しかし、ラッキーにも親子のくじらに遭遇出来ました。
ツアーに参加してよかったです。
First time riding in a helicopter, the ride was awesome. I did get to see a lot aerial coverage, especially recent destruction that occurred. Checking out the other destinations were ok, but the park was the real treat. True interaction with steam vents. Feeling the heat come from it is insanely hot; even walking a distance away from it and the wind picking up for a bit, my sunglasses fogged up.
This is an experience only you can take for yourself. The helicopter ride made the volcano national park that more interesting. I would do it again just for the helicopter ride.
The captain and crew were fantastic. They made sure everyone had a great experience. Being underwater on the scooter was a little piece of heaven as I do not swim. I got to see the beauty of the ocean. The view of crater and fish etc. Were a work of art. I will return the next time I visit and every time after that!!!!! Bring a smile, towel, and sunscreen.
Aloha Shannon! We are so glad to hear you had a great time on our boat and scooters! We will be sure to let our crew know about your experience. Thank you for coming out with us and we hope to see you again in the future! Mahalo!
The beautiful sea was amazing to see from above! As soon as you arrive, you board the boat to start, so I recommend that those who are prone to seasickness take motion sickness medication in advance.
綺麗な海が上空から見渡せて最高でした!到着してすぐに船に乗ってスタートとなるので、船酔いしやすい方は事前に酔い止めを飲むことをオススメします。
It was authentic Italian cuisine and very delicious. The pasta, of course, as well as the appetizers, meat, and desserts were all excellent. It's not a particularly formal restaurant, but both the taste and portion sizes are very refined. There is none of the typical American oversized portions. I definitely want to go back. However, since it's a popular place, reservations are a must. I could only make a reservation for a rather late time, but it was still worth having dinner at this restaurant.
本格的イタリアンで、とても美味しかったです。パスタはもちろん、前菜からお肉、スイーツまで最高でした。さほどかしこまったお店ではないですが、味もボリュームもとても上品です。アメリカ特有の大味大量感はありません。また行きたいお店です。ただし、人気店なので予約必須です。自分もかなり遅い時間の予約しかできませんでしたが、それでもこのお店でディナーする価値はあります。
This was my second time participating. I had made a reservation for Christmas, which thankfully was still being held, but it was canceled due to bad weather. Fortunately, I was able to adjust to another day and participate.
The boat had changed since my last visit, and it had been upgraded in various ways! Unlike Mikurajima, it was disappointing that diving was prohibited where the dolphins were, so we could only watch from above, but I was glad to see them multiple times.
Since it was a busy season, there were many participants, and I noticed several people getting bruised from bumping into each other while swimming. There were also quite a few people feeling seasick. Taking precautions is important.
It was disappointing that I couldn't see any turtles while snorkeling this time, but the crew was great at keeping the energy up, and the hula was wonderful, so it was definitely worth participating!
2回目の参加でした。
クリスマスもありがたいことに催行されていたので予約していたのですが悪天候のためキャンセルになりました。運良く別の日に調整できて参加できました。
前回から船も変わっていて、色々とパワーアップしていました!
御蔵島と違い、イルカがいるところでは潜るのが禁止だったので上から見るだけなのが残念でしたが、何度も見られたので良かったです。
繁忙期なので参加者が多く、一緒に泳ぐのでぶつかってあざになっている方が多く見られました。あと船酔いしてる方も多々見られました。対策は重要です。
今回はシュノーケリングで亀が見られなかったのが残念でしたが、クルーのかたが盛り上げ上手で、フラも素敵でしたし、参加した甲斐ありました!
