Oahu
It was a perfect day with calm waves and good weather, where neither the boat nor the submarine swayed, and visibility was excellent. By chance, there were only Japanese people, so all the explanations were in Japanese, which was lucky. The scuba diving instructor was very knowledgeable about fish and provided detailed explanations very kindly. It was a quick one-hour underwater exploration.
波も穏やかな良い天気で、船も潜水艦も揺れず、視界も良好で言うことなしの日でした。たまたま日本人ばかりになり、解説は全て日本語になりラッキーでした。スキューバダイビングのインストラクターもされているとのことで、魚のことについても詳しく、とても丁寧に解説してくださいました。あっという間の1時間の海底探索でした。
Pick from driver was prompt and on time. Once we arrived, we were given very clear instructions once on the boat, all the staff and the captain was very friendly and once we were on our way, everything we needed to know was explained clearly.
The actual scooter came on another boat and we were told how to get in and out of it, and I have to say the experience was unlike anything I've ever done before! We were only about 10-12 feet down but it was so wonderful to be in the water and not having to worry about anything.
The divers were very very professional and attentive, very friendly and very knowledgeable, and once we were done with the scuba scooter experience, it was a nice relaxing time on the boat to either go snorkeling or just enjoy the beautiful scenery around us!
Highly recommended, the staff was absolutely great and the captain was "cherry"!
Will definitely do it again next time we are in Honolulu! Highly recommended!!
The tour crew was warm, kind, and made it possible for us to spend a wonderful time in the long-awaited paradise of the sea. While the weather is important, I truly felt that the smiles and friendly responses from the crew were essential to the tour experience. Thank you very much!
ツアーのクルーの皆さんも温かく、優しく、楽しい時間を念願の天国の海で過ごすことが出来ました。
天気も重要ですが、クルーの方々の笑顔や気さくな対応が本当にツアーにとっては重要だなと感じたクルーズでした。
有難うございました!
Since it is located in the Royal Hawaiian Center, I made a reservation at Wolfgang's Steakhouse, and after dining, we went for cocktails and the show. I went with my daughter and my grandson, and although my daughter belongs to a generation that doesn't know Elvis, she enjoyed it as she recognized some of the songs. My grandson also had fun doing the hand movements from Michael's "Thriller." Of course, I belong to the generation that grew up with Elvis and Michael, so I had the most fun. The hula was great too, and the fire dancer was impressive. After the show, I purchased a photo with Michael, which became a wonderful memory. I would love to go again when I visit Hawaii.
ロイヤルハワイアンセンターの中にあるため、ウルフギャングステーキを予約していたので、食事した後カクテルとショーのみで予約して行きました。
小学校低学年の孫と娘といきましたが、娘はエルビスは知らない世代ですが、聞いたことのある曲もあるということで楽しんでいましたし、孫もマイケルのスリラーの手の振りなどして、楽しんでいました。
もちろん私はエルビスとマイケルどんぴしゃの世代なので一番楽しかったです。ほかにもフラもよかったし、ファイアーダンスの男の人も圧巻でした。
終わってから、マイケルとの写真も購入しいい思い出となりました。
またハワイに行ったら行きたいです。
Thank you very much for visiting us. We are very pleased to hear that you enjoyed your time here. We sincerely look forward to welcoming you back when you come to Hawaii again.
この度はご来場頂きまして、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。
I was able to make a great reservation that included a shuttle bus to Tantalus Lookout. Since it was the day of arrival, I could relax at the hotel until just before the reservation, and it was nice that it was only about a 5-minute walk from the hotel (RYHW). The appetizers, pasta, main course, and dessert were all delicious, and I was able to get a refill on the bread, making my first day in Hawaii very enjoyable. I was told that those who came without a reservation would have a table available after three hours, so it was definitely the right choice to book early.
タンタラスの丘へのシャトルバスもついて、お得に予約出来ました。
到着日だったので、予約直前までホテルでのんびり休んでから行けたこと、ホテル(RYHW)から徒歩5分くらいと近かったのも良かったです。
前菜、パスタ、メイン、デザートどれも美味しく、パンのおかわりも頂け、ハワイ初日を満喫しました。
予約なしで来店された方は3時間後ならお席が用意出来ます!と言われていたので、早めに予約をして正解でした。
This is my second visit! It was disappointing that the Ohana was under maintenance, but the slides and wave pool were thrilling and fun. The shuttle service was right on time, and I was able to sleep soundly both going and coming back.
参加2回目です!目玉のオハナが点検中だったのは残念だったけど、スライダーも波のプールも迫力あって楽しかったです送迎も時間ピッタリで、行きも帰りもぐっすり眠れました♀️
Buying the tickets on line fast and easy. We drove from Waikiki about 45 minutes lots of parking when you arrive.
Checking in for our adventure was easy, all of 5 minutes.
The Staff are really nice and helpful. Our guide for our UTV ride Natasha was great! She kept us entertained.
We booked the 2hr ride which we are glad we did, wished it was longer though we were having so much fun.
Great views of the mountains valley and ocean too!
Be prepared to get dirty on this adventure we had dry dust and we were black . So dont wear white.
They also have a place to eat and shop while you are there.
Have fun and enjoy!
I participated with my two children.
During the cruise, we encountered many honu (sea turtles)!
There were even baby honu.
The staff pointed out the direction on the clock, so we didn't miss anything.
At the sandbar, we played beach volleyball and practiced snorkeling.
For lunch, we had delicious hamburgers with freshly grilled patties! My kids went back for seconds!
We also enjoyed snorkeling around the coral reefs.
This is a highly recommended tour that even toddlers can participate in without any difficulty.
こども2人連れて参加しました。
クルーズ中には何匹ものホヌに遭遇!
赤ちゃんホヌもいましたよ。
スタッフが時計の何時方向にいるよーとおしえてくれるので、見逃すことなし。
サンドバーでは、ビーチバレーをしたり、シュノーケルの練習。
ランチは焼きたてのパテを挟んだハンバーガー!とっても美味しかったです。
こどもはおかわりしてました!
そしてサンゴ礁のあたりでシュノーケルを満喫。
幼児でも無理なく参加できるおススメのツアーです。
Last November, my spouse and I participated. It seemed that the boat was launched in a way that was almost a forced breakthrough despite the rough weather, and nearly all the crew members were severely seasick. The motion sickness medication we took was ineffective (laughs).
Instead of fearing the sharks, I was overwhelmed by a fear I had never experienced before, feeling like I might die due to the height of the waves and the intense rocking. It was so rough that even the Westerners on the same boat were smiling wryly.
Because of the rough weather, we couldn't see the ocean from inside the cage. We could only confirm the sharks' presence when they came quite close. I saw about five sharks, but due to the intense rocking inside the cage and the seasickness, I don't remember much (laughs). Other participants were also watching sharks while throwing up, making it quite a harsh experience (laughs).
On days with good weather, it seems you can encounter many sharks, as others have posted. It's an experience that you can't easily have in Japan (and it seems that rough sailing like this is something that only fishermen get to experience), so I definitely recommend participating.
去年の11月に夫婦で参加しました。
大しけの中、強行突破のような形で船を出したようで、乗員のほぼ全員激しく船酔いしていました。飲んでいた酔い止め薬も効果ナシでした(笑)
サメの恐怖ではなく、あまりの波の高さと激しい揺れに、このまま死ぬのではないか、と言う感じたことのない恐怖に襲われました。あまりに激しく揺れるので、同じ船に乗っていた欧米の方々も苦笑でした。
シケでしたので、ゲージに入っても海を見渡せない。サメがかなり近くに来ないと姿を確認できなかったです。5匹ほど見れましたが、ゲージ内の揺れがすごいのと船酔いで気持ち悪いのであまり記憶がありません(笑)他の参加者も吐きながらサメを見る、といったかなり過酷な現場でした(笑)
天気の良い日は他の方が投稿されているように、たくさんのサメに出会えるようですね。日本ではなかなかできない体験(大しけの航海も漁師さんたち以外はなかなか体験できなさそう)ですので是非参加してみてください。
My son wanted to see an authentic fire show, so we participated for the first time.
There were many foreign guests. The bus guide's high-energy talk was in English, and it was enjoyable.
The entire show was well-structured, combining experience, participation, and viewing, and we had a great time. If the food had been a bit tastier, it would have received a "perfect!" rating.
息子が本場の炎のショーを見たいとのことで、
はじめて参加しました。
外国人のお客さんが多かったです。
バスガイドさんのハイテンショントークは
英語でしたが楽しかったです。
ショー全体も、体験~参加~観賞と
上手く構成されていて、十分楽しめました。
ごはんがもう少し美味しければ
『最高でした!』評価でした。
I went in February.
I was very satisfied to see many whales.
It became a good memory.
It was difficult to take photos, but it was fun.
2月に行きました。
たくさんのクジラを見ることができて大満足でした。
良い思い出になりました。
写真を撮るのは難しかったですが、楽しかったです。
Thank you very much for joining our cruise. We are very pleased to hear that you enjoyed seeing many whales. Please do come again. All of our staff are looking forward to welcoming you back.
Star of Honolulu
この度は私共のクルーズにお越し頂き誠に有難うございました。
たくさんのクジラをお楽しみ頂けました様で大変嬉しく思います。
是非またお越し下さい。
スタッフ一同お待ち申し上げております。

We participated as a family of four. It was a lot of fun, and even our elementary school children could experience it just like adults. You can fully enjoy the nature of Hawaii. The zip line with the great views was the best.
家族4人で参加しました。
小学生の子供たちでも大人と同じように体験でき、とても楽しかったです。
ハワイの自然をたっぷり味わえます。眺めの良い景色の中のジップライン最高でした。
The staff only spoke English, but we were able to communicate somehow, so I really enjoyed it! There are seven of them, and I think that’s just the right amount, not too many or too few. I would like to go again when I visit Hawaii.
スタッフさんが英語のみでしたが、なんとかコミュニケーションが取れるので、とても楽しめました!7本あるのですが、多くも少なくもなく丁度良いと思います。またハワイに行ったら行きたいです。
We experienced it as a three-generation family, and everyone was very satisfied. It felt like we were on Soarin' at Tokyo DisneySea.
親子3世代で体験しましたが、全員が大満足でした。東京ディズニーシーのソアリンに乗っているみたいでした。
Two premium drinks per person. This includes iced tea. "Premium" iced tea? Is the premium that it comes with ice?
Adult beverages are stupidly expensive.
We were much farther from the fireworks than I had hoped.
They lived up the the letter of their advertisement. They don't go beyond that.
We departed with five groups, including my family. My five-year-old daughter and I were the second group. As we floated up, we quickly ascended, and a wonderful view unfolded before us. It felt like sitting on a swing, so even my five-year-old daughter could enjoy it. However, by the time we reached the fourth and fifth groups, even those of us who usually don’t get motion sickness found it quite tough. Since the speed is adjusted to ascend, those who are prone to motion sickness might end up feeling nauseous. Even for those who don’t usually get motion sickness, it would be wise to take some anti-nausea medication just in case.
私たち家族含め5組での出発となりました。
私と5歳の娘は2番目でした。
フワッと浮き上がると、みるみる上昇し素晴らしい景色が広がります。
ブランコに座ってるような感覚なので、5歳の娘でも楽しむことができました。
ただ、4組目5組目ともなると普段乗り物酔いをしない私たちでさえ、酔いが結構キツかったです。
上昇させるためにスピードを出したり緩めたりするので、乗り物酔いしやすい人は吐いてしまうかもしれません。
乗り物酔いしない人でも念のため酔い止めを飲んでおいてほうがよさそうです。
My beginner daughter successfully rode the waves! We signed up for a group lesson, but luckily, it ended up being a private lesson with just the two of us on the day.
初心者の娘も見事に波乗り成功!グループレッスンで申し込みましたが、ラッキーなことに当日は娘と二人きりで実際はプライベートレッスンでした。
At Sandbar, the experience on the boat and in the water was more comfortable than I imagined. For lunch, we had burgers with grilled meat prepared on the boat! And the best part is that drinking beer while in the ocean is something you wouldn't think is possible in Japan. We started playing beach volleyball with just 2 or 3 people, but before we knew it, more people joined in, and it became a blast! Snorkeling was also great, as we had about an hour to move freely and enjoy ourselves!
サンドバーでは、想像以上に過ごしやすい船の上と水の中。お昼は、船の上で焼いてくれたお肉を挟んだハンバーガーを!そして、何より海のに入りながらビールを飲んでもオッケーというのは、日本では考えられませんね。ビーチバレーも、最初は2、3人で初めてていましたが、いつの間にか人が増えて盛り上がり、最高でした!シュノーケリングも、約1時間も自由に動けるので、楽しめます!
It was amazing!
There were a variety of slides.
The lazy river didn't flow very much, but I'm glad it was sunny.
最高でした!
スライダーの種類が豊富。
流れるプールはあまり流れなかったけど
晴れてよかったです。
This was my second time parasailing, so I decided to challenge myself at the highest altitude of 150 meters! Up I went smoothly into the sky. It felt amazing! I thought, "Oh, this isn't so high," but after a while... wait, am I going up again? It's so high! I don't mind heights, but it's a bit scary... However, I was able to enjoy a lot of time in the air, and by the end, I felt like I could go even higher! I'm really glad I chose the highest option. My wife, who isn't fond of heights, seemed to enjoy it while saying it was scary, especially since we were with our child. And then, at the end, we plunged into the sea! Since I was the first to jump, I didn't realize there was an option for that and foolishly shouted out loud. The crew was cheerful and made it lively, and after it was all over, it felt like a little cruise, allowing us to enjoy even more after parasailing!
パラセーリングは二回目だったので、今回は一番高い150mにチャレンジ!
スルスル〜っと上空へ。気持ちいい〜!
なんだ、そんな高くないじゃないかと思っていたら、しばらくして…ん…また上がってる?
た・高い〜!
高いところは嫌いじゃないけど、ちと怖い…
でも、たっぷり空中散歩を楽しめるし、終わってみると、まだまだいける!
なんて思ってしまうくらいで、一番高くしてよかったと思います。
高いところが苦手な妻も、子供と3人だったので怖い〜と言いながら、笑顔で楽しめたようです。
そして、最後に、海にドボン!
一番最初に飛んだので、そんなオプションがあると思っていず、迂闊にも大声をあげてしまいました。
クルーの方たちも、明るく盛り上げてくれて、終わった後も、ちょっとしたクルーズのようで、パラセーリングの後も、たっぷりと楽しめました!
It was my second time parasailing in my life. The view of Diamond Head from above was spectacular! However, I suffered from seasickness and sunburn... what a mistake.
人生2度目のパラセーリングでした。上空から見たダイヤモンドヘッドも絶景!
ただ、船酔い&日焼けには懲りました、、、失敗。
Really nice experience guided by really nice and professional people. Highly recommended.
I was able to encounter a pod of wild dolphins! As soon as we spotted the dolphins, we hurriedly put on our fins and masks. At the captain's signal, we jumped into the sea one after another and swam to the location guided by the staff. When we looked underwater at the signal, we could see dozens of dolphins swimming below us! The water was incredibly clear, providing excellent visibility. It was a great experience.
We raced the boat to the best spot, waited, and signaled; I believe that if any of these elements were missing, the timing wouldn't have worked out. It truly felt like a long-established tour!
Even after getting back on the boat, the pod of dolphins swam alongside us. (This seems to be rare.) At this time of year, there were also baby dolphins, and we were able to see the dolphins jumping, which made for an exciting time.
While the time with the dolphins was wonderful, there were a few things I would like to see improved, which is why I’m giving it one less star.
- I would have liked it to be clearly stated that we needed to swim quickly on our own to see the dolphins. (I had a parent in their 60s who is not a strong swimmer with me.)
- The time we could see the dolphins underwater was very brief. (Once the pod passed by, we got back on the boat and moved straight to the water play point.) I would have liked to have more time to see them in the sea again.
- I purchased photos, but none were taken underwater. (It was the maximum number of passengers on board that day, so perhaps the photographer couldn't manage?) It felt like there were many photos of children. While there were photos taken on the boat, the commemorative photos with the staff were in a conveyor-belt style, so we weren't looking at the camera. It was disappointing, especially since it cost $79.
The staff were cheerful, and the boat was lively with dancing and singing, making it a good experience where I could feel the beauty of Hawaii's nature.
野生のイルカの群れに会えました!
イルカを発見すると急いでフィンとマスクを装着。船長さんの合図で次々に海に飛び込み、スタッフの誘導する場所まで泳ぎます。合図で海中を見ると何十頭のイルカの群れが下を泳いでいくのが見えました!海は透明度抜群で視界もクリア。いい体験ができました。
ベストな場所へ船を走らせ、待機し、合図、このどれが欠けてもタイミングは合わなかったと思います。さすが老舗ツアーだと思いました!
船に上がってからもイルカの群れが船と並走。(珍しいそうです。)時期的に赤ちゃんイルカもいて、イルカのジャンプも見ることができ、ワクワクな時間が続きました。
イルカとの時間は素適でしたが、いくつか改善してほしいこともあり星マイナス1。
・イルカを見るために急いで自力で泳ぐ必要があることは明記してほしかった。(泳ぎの得意でない60代の親が一緒でした。)
・イルカを水中で見れたのは一瞬だった。(群れが通り過ぎたら船に上がってそのまま水遊びポイントへ移動してしまう。)もう一度海の中で見る時間をとってほしかった。
・写真を購入したが海の中で1枚も撮ってもらえなかった。(当日は乗船可能人数maxだったのでカメラマンの手が回らなかった?)子どもの写真が多い印象。船の上では写っていましたがスタッフとの記念写真も流れ作業状態なのでカメラ目線になっていなくて…。79ドルもしたのに残念です。
スタッフも明るく船内もダンスや歌で盛り上がり、ハワイの自然を感じられる良い体験はできたと思います。
This tour is the best way to get the full Pearl Harbor experience. Our guide was very knowledgeable and answered all our curious and random questions. He did an excellent job of corralling such a large group in time to move from one exhibit to the next. We would have been lost without him. My favorite part of the tour was the boat ride out to the Arizona Memorial. Even though the memorial was closed at the time, seeing the Arizona Memorial and Battleship Missouri up close out on the water was quite humbling and awe-inspiring. Visiting Pearl Harbor is a top Oahu destination, and this tour is the best way to go!
I highly recommend this dinner cruise! This cruise is unique in that it’s a formal dinner, a sunset cruise, and a luau all wrapped up into one delicious and entertaining evening. I’m vegan and always skeptical of trying vegan options, but this dinner far exceeded my expectations. The jazz band did not disappoint either. Good music goes a long way in my book, so I can easily say the saxophonist was actually my favorite part of the evening. The band happened to play one of my favorite songs and it made my day, the icing on the cake.
I had se opportunity to get really close to the fishes and turtles I just would like to see corals. Also the scootter was too noisy when moving other than that everything was perfect.
I had previously gone snorkeling at another location, but it wasn't as detailed and kind as this experience. This time, I felt that the explanations provided in advance were very thorough and considerate, ensuring that participants could enjoy themselves without any worries. Additionally, during the snorkeling, I was constantly watched over and guided, which allowed me to fully enjoy the wonderful underwater world without getting lost. I was pleasantly surprised to be able to swim for such a long time, which I hadn't expected. I would definitely like to use this service again.
以前別の場所でシュノーケリングをしたことはありましたが、今回のようにきめ細かく親切ではありませんでした。
今回はとても懇切丁寧に事前に説明いただき、参加者に不安のないよう安心して楽しめるよう配慮を感じました。
また、シュノーケリング中も常に見ていて誘導していただいたおかげで迷うことなくすばらしい海の世界を堪能することができました。
また、こんなに長い時間泳がせてもらえるとは思っていなかったのでうれしい驚きでした。
また、利用されていただきたいと思いました。
Dear Jay, thank you for joining the tour with Blue Hawaii Divers. I'm glad to hear that you and Dan had a great time. During our tour, you will swim for about an hour, and if the wave conditions are good, we will take you further out. We will make sure to provide thorough practice beforehand. Both of you did very well. It was nice that a seal came to the beach that day. Next time, I will do my best to ensure you can see the adorable sea turtles at Hanauma Bay, so please consider joining us again when you come back to Hawaii. Thank you very much. Mahalo!!
ジェイ様、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、ありがとうございます。
とても楽しんでいただけたようで私もDANも嬉しく思います。私達のツアーでは1時間程続けて泳いでいただきますし、波の状態が良ければ沖の方までお連れするので、事前の練習はきっちりとさせていただきます。お二人も大変お上手に出来ていましたよ。この日はビーチにアザラシが来てくれていて良かったですね。次回こそはハナウマ湾の可愛いウミガメさんを見ていただけるように頑張りますので、またハワイにお越しの際にはリピートして下さいね。
本当にありがとうございました。Mahalo!!
The pool is a lot of fun, and the slide is easy to ride. There were times when no one was at the slide start point, which might be due to a lack of staff. It's different from the safety standards in Japan. My 11-year-old daughter found the slide too intense and said she would never ride it again.
I wanted a place to rest, so I reserved a cabana in advance. It came with a private float and water. My daughter got sick from playing too much in the wave pool, and we were able to relax on the cabana bed. We also had lunch in the shade. You can have lunch delivered to you as well. We were able to close the curtains and change clothes too. I'm really glad I reserved the cabana.
プールはとても楽しいし、スライダーもスイスイ乗れます
スタッフが足りないのかスライダースタート地点に誰もいない事がありました。日本の安全感覚とは違うのですね〜
11歳の娘はスライダーの激しさに二度と乗りませんでした。
休憩できる場所がほしくてカバナを事前に頼んでおきました
専用浮き輪も、水等も付いていて♩
波のプールで遊びすぎた娘が酔ってしまい、カバナのベッドでゆっくり休めました。ランチタイムも日陰でとれました。ランチを届けてもらう事もできます。
カーテンしめて着替えも出来ました♩
本当にカバナは予約しておいてよかったです
We participated in horseback riding for the first time as a family of four. I was worried that my 11-year-old daughter, who is small in stature, might not be able to ride alone, but the horses were so well-behaved that no special training was needed. There was no guide for the scenery, so we simply enjoyed the beautiful views while gently riding along on our horses. (They were so calm that I almost dozed off, haha.)
Regarding the reservation, the voucher we received just before our visit was for a 9:30 AM horseback riding session. When we arrived early at the pickup location, we were told that there was no reservation. For some reason, there was a reservation for a ride starting at 12:30 PM instead. They also mentioned that we had the wrong meeting time, which made us quite anxious. However, thanks to the consideration of the ranch staff, we were allowed to take the bus and participate in a farm tour for free to pass the time until lunch. They were very kind to us, and we were able to enjoy a full day of fun.
I guess these things can happen!
家族4人で初めての乗馬に参加しました
娘は11歳で体も小さいので一人で乗れるか心配でしたが、特に練習も必要ないくらいお利口な馬たちでした。
景観に対してガイドは無かったので、ひたすらステキな景色をパカパカと穏やかに歩く馬さんに乗って観ている。といった感じ。
(穏やかすぎてウトウト眠くなるほどでした笑)
予約について。
直前に頂いたバウチャーも9:30スタートの乗馬を予約していました。
朝早くピックアップ場所に到着すると「予約が入ってない」と言われました
何故か12:30からの乗馬に予約がある。。と。
集合時間も間違えている。。と言われ動揺しました。
牧場のスタッフの方の配慮でバスにも乗せてもらえ、お昼までの時間潰しのためにファームツアに無料で参加させてもらえました
とても親切にしていただき、1日たっぷり楽しむ事ができました。
こんな事もあるんですね〜
The sandbar was a bit different from the photos as it was submerged in the sea that day, but I still enjoyed it. The snorkeling afterwards was great as I could freely explore around the coral. I even got to see sea turtles from the boat. Surprisingly, the hamburgers were freshly grilled and very delicious, making for a satisfying day!
サンドバーはこの日は海につかっていてちょっと写真と違いましたが、楽しめました。その後のシュノーケリングも珊瑚の周りを自由に見れてよかったです。船でウミガメにも会えました。
意外?にハンバーガーが焼き立てでとても美味しく満足の1日でした!
