Oahu
I was picked up in front of the Twin Fin Hotel and participated in the tour. The pickup was smooth, just by saying my name, and the bus was comfortable.
At the location, there were various counters, and even if you don't know where to go, the tour staff will kindly guide you. The buggy counter is located to the left after passing the ticket counter on the right side of the entrance, and it's fine to line up 10-15 minutes before your activity.
I recommend leaving everything except your smartphone in the lockers on the left at the entrance, as you might get covered in sand. The lockers are easy to use.
The buggy activity was amazing! Even if you're a paper driver, you can drive, and if it seems too dangerous, the guide will take over. The two guides were very entertaining, and they took many wonderful photos for us. However, some of the main movie filming locations are just passed slowly, so I recommend not forgetting to take pictures.
ツインフィンホテル前でピックアップしてもらいツアーに参加しました。
ピックアップも名前を言うだけでスムーズ、バスも快適でした。
現地では様々なカウンターがあり、どこかわからなくてもツアーの方に聞けばにこやかに教えてくれました。
バギーのカウンターは入り口を抜けて右手のチケットカウンターを過ぎた左手にあり、10-15分前に並べばOKです。
カウンターに並ぶ前に、スマホ以外の全てを入り口左のロッカーに預けることをお勧めします。砂に塗れます。ロッカーも使いやすいです。
バギーアクティビティーは最高でした!
ペーパードライバーでも運転できましたし、あまりに危険そうならガイドが代わってくれるとのことでした。ガイドの2人もとても面白くて、素敵な写真をたくさん撮ってもらいました。
ただ、メインの映画ロケ地のいくつかは横をゆっくり通り過ぎるだけになるので、忘れずに写真を撮ることをお勧めします。
I went to the ticket counter around 10:45 as it said to check in at that time, and I received a paper voucher. It was crowded, so the actual ticket was issued around 10:58. The paper stated that horseback riding was from 11:30, so I thought it would be fine to arrive around that time, but when I got there at 11:30, I was told it was too late and I couldn't ride. My English isn't fluent, so I couldn't grasp the nuances, but it felt like they meant that 11:30 was too late since there was an explanatory video and such.
Isn't it normal to arrive at the time stated, 11:30? If there was a gathering time before that, it should have been indicated. I was really looking forward to it, so I'm very disappointed. My friend and I are both let down. When I explained the situation to the ticket center staff, they somehow allowed us to join another tour, but I really wanted to go horseback riding.
10:45にチェックインと書いてあったのでチケットカウンターにそのくらいの時間に行き、バウチャーのような紙を出してもらいました。混雑していたので実際に発券されたのはおよそ10:58頃。紙には乗馬は11:30〜と書いてあり、その時間に行けば良いのだと思って11:30頃に行ったらもう遅いと言われ乗れなかった。英語が流暢なわけではないので細かいニュアンスが分からないが、説明のビデオ等があるから11:30じゃ遅いという感じだった。
11:30〜と書かれていたらその時間に行ってしまうのが普通じゃないでしょうか?その前に集合ならその集合時間を記載してもらわないと分からない。
とても楽しみにしていたので残念でならないです。
私も友人もガッカリです。チケットセンターの人に事情を説明したらなんとか他のツアーに参加させていただけましたが、乗馬したかったです。
It was more enjoyable to see it in person than to watch it on YouTube. On the way back, there was a service where you could take photos with the performers, which was also a lot of fun. The Royal Hawaiian Center is located in the heart of Waikiki, making it very convenient to get to and from. There were videos, and the music and dance were enjoyable to watch. The fire performances were also amazing.
ユーチューブで見るより、実際にみた方が楽しかったです。帰りに、出演者の方々と写真が撮れるというサービスがあり、それもとても楽しかったです。ロイヤルハワイアンセンターはワイキキの中心にあり、行き帰りもすごく楽でした。映像もあり、音楽や踊りも楽しく見れました。火を使ったパフォーマンスもすごかったです。
Thank you very much for attending the Rockafura Rockin' Show. We are very pleased to hear that you enjoyed the entertainment, including the fire knife performances. We sincerely look forward to welcoming you back when you visit Hawaii again.
この度はロッカフラ ロッキンショーにご来場頂きまして、誠に有難うございます。エンターテインメントそして、ファイアーナイフなど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。
Our Tour Guide, Jon, was an outstanding storyteller and kept us entertained with background, legends, history and personal observations of the stops on the tour. He was treated us as Ohana and made sure we had water and juice, delivered our lunches to us, checked that every one was comfortable. At the waterfall trail, my knee acted up so I found a shady spot to wait for my husband. Jon had rented a scooter to go down to the waterfall to check on everyone else. On the way back Jon insisted I use the scooter to return to the bus. I nominate him for employee of the year.
I was very nervous before trying parasailing at a height of 150 meters for the first time, but the staff were kind and it was a lot of fun throughout. I didn't feel unsafe and would like to participate again. The motorboat swayed a bit on the waves, so I took motion sickness medication before going.
初めてパラセイリングで150mの高さは乗る前はとてもドキドキでしたが、スタッフ方たちが親切で終始とても楽しかったです。
危ないこともなくまた参加したいです。
モーターボートは時々波にのり揺れます。酔い止めは飲んで行きました。
Best thing we could do !! Very lucky to see turtles and dolphins !!
I was recommended Hanauma Bay as a great spot in Hawaii by a friend, but I learned that reservations are required for entry. Since I can't drive, I was looking for an all-inclusive plan and found this tour.
I had only snorkeled once before, so I was a bit anxious, but the small group and the attentive guidance in Japanese made it a wonderful experience. I was really happy to see sea turtles!
Hanauma Bay has more waves than I expected, so while floating, my body was swaying, and I was glad I took motion sickness medication. (There were others who got seasick as well. I tend to get motion sickness easily, but thanks to the medication, I had no issues at all.)
I heard that it's difficult to reserve entry tickets for Hanauma Bay, so I'm really glad I booked this tour considering that aspect too.
友人からハワイのおすすめの場所としてハナウマ湾を教えてもらいましたが入場に予約が必要とのことで、車も運転できないので全て込み込みのプランを探しておりこのツアーを見つけました。
シュノーケルは一回しか経験がなく少し不安でしたが、日本語で少人数で丁寧に進めてもらい、ウミガメも見ることができて本当に良かったです!
ハナウマ湾は思ったより波があるので、浮いている間に身体が揺れるので酔い止めを服用していってよかったです。(波酔いしてしまっている方もいました。自分もかなり乗り物酔いしやすいですが、薬の服用のおかげで全然問題なかったです)
ハナウマ湾の入場チケットは予約困難らしく、その点も含めてこのツアーを予約してよかったなと思います。
An interesting tour. Staff are friendly and knowledgable. Loved that we got to stop off and see a few of the sites along the way. Soooo many movies had scenes filmed on location. The views are extraordinary as well.
The staff members are amazing, and the food was delicious, but it would have been perfect if there were more play equipment! The staff doesn't go down to the sea, so it feels like you have to enjoy it on your own. However, the boat was beautiful, there were plenty of fish, and we even got to see turtles, so it was a lot of fun!
スタッフさん達は最高ですし、食事も美味しかったけどもう少し遊具が充実していれば完璧でした!
スタッフさん達は誰も海に降りないので自分たちで楽しむ感じです。でも船は綺麗で魚も沢山いて亀にも会えましたしとても楽しかったです!
I recently had an amazing horse riding experience, and I couldn’t recommend it more! The ocean views were absolutely breathtaking, and the overall ride was incredibly peaceful and enjoyable. As a beginner, I felt completely at ease, thanks to the friendly and knowledgeable guides. It’s the perfect activity for anyone looking to relax and take in the natural beauty of the surroundings. I’ll definitely be coming back for another ride!
Thank you for such a kind review, we are so glad you had a good time and hope to see you again soon!
I was able to explore under clear skies without encountering any squalls.
I had high expectations for the movie location tour, so I felt it was just okay and wasn't particularly moved. However, I was impressed by the breathtaking views during the jungle exploration tour, especially since I didn't have high expectations for that. It's all about not expecting too much!
スコールにも合わず、晴天の中回れました。
映画のロケ地巡りは期待が大きかったこともあり、まあまあと感じ、感動まではいきませんでしたが、ジャングル探検ツアーは期待していなかった分、絶景に感動しました(笑)
期待し過ぎないことですね。
After the reception, you watch a Japanese safety video, and then it's time to start horseback riding. The horses are incredibly smart, so even beginners can ride with confidence. They will first teach you how to stop, start, and turn left and right, but since the horses are intelligent, they will walk and stop on their own without much input from you. Once you start, you won't get off the horse, and you'll ride in a line for a solid two hours or more through the great outdoors. The horses are equipped with bags where you can store drinks, so it's possible to drink while riding. Additionally, taking photos with your smartphone is allowed, so you can capture the beautiful natural scenery while riding. In Japan, you can't have such a long horseback riding experience, so I'm really glad I participated.
受付後、日本語の注意事項映像を見たら、乗馬してスタートです。馬はすごい賢いので、素人でも安心して乗馬できます。止まり方、スタートの仕方、左右方向への方向転換は最初に教えてくれますが、馬が賢いので、こちらが操作しなくても、歩いたり、止まったりしてくれます。スタートしたら、馬から降りることはなく、一列になってひたすら大自然の中を、みっちり2時間+α、乗馬し続けます。飲み物等を入れれる袋を馬に装備しているため、乗馬しながら、飲み物を飲むことは可能です。また、スマホでの写真撮影はOKのため、乗馬しながら大自然の風景を撮影することができます。日本では、こんなに長い時間、馬に乗る経験はできないため、参加して本当に良かったと思います。
This time, I purchased from Veltra because there was a discount coupon. If there is no coupon, it's cheaper to buy on-site using coupons like those found in free papers. Also, for seniors, even at regular price, it's cheaper on-site.
今回はベルトラの割引クーポンがあったので、ベルトラから購入しました。クーポンがない場合には、フリーペーパーについているようなクーポンを利用して現地で購入したほうが安いです。
また、シニアのかたは定価でも、現地のほうが安いです。
Driving the buggy can be a bit nerve-wracking at first, but you'll get used to it if you keep at it. I had so much fun driving for over two hours! You can enjoy a different side of Hawaii compared to Waikiki.
After the buggy ride, the lunch break before getting on the bus is short, so you should either order right away as soon as the activity ends or stick to something simple like a sandwich, otherwise, you won't have time to eat due to the high number of participants.
バギーの運転は最初不安があるものの、続けていれば慣れます。二時間以上運転してとにかく楽しかった!ワイキキとは違うハワイを満喫できます。
バギーの後、バスに乗る前のランチの時間が短いので、アクティビティが終了次第すぐに注文するか、サンドウィッチなど簡単なもので済ますかしないと、利用者が多いので食事をする時間がなくなります。
We chose Chief’s Luau for our honeymoon and it was one of the best moments of our trip. Chief made sure we laughed all the time and got impressed by the outstanding performance. Definetly worth it and we are sure we will go back.
Exceptional cruise! Great service; friendly staff; fantastic entertainment; overall experience was outstanding!!! Highly recommend!!
I participated in a tour of Manoa Falls✌️
It wasn't just a trek; we learned about the plants along the way, found wild avocados, and touched a mahogany tree. I never knew the surface of a mahogany trunk, which becomes high-end furniture, looked like that (I won't say, so go touch it yourself).
Our guides, Jason and Tomomi, were amazing✨
We had lunch while overlooking Waikiki from Tantalus Hill.
The tuna sandwich from the popular spot, Andy's, was exquisite.
It's such a great deal since you can eat without waiting in line‼️
The view from the hilltop was fantastic, with Diamond Head on the left, the high-rise buildings of Waikiki in the center, and to the right, you could see from Honolulu Airport to Pearl Harbor, as Tomomi said, "half of Oahu Island."
The weather was perfect today, and we could even see Molokai Island faintly in the distance️.
It was a tour where you can feel nature close to Honolulu.
マノア滝のツアーに参加✌️
ただのトレッキングではなく、道沿いの植物の話や野生のアボカドを見つけたり、マホガニーの木に触ったり。高級家具になるマホガニーの幹の表面があんなだったなんて(言いませんよ さわりに行ってください)
ジェイソンさんとともみさんのガイド最高でした✨
タンタラスの丘でワイキキを眺めながら、昼食。
人気店Andysのツナサンドは絶品
お店に並ばずに食べられるんですからお得感満載です‼️
丘の展望台からの眺めは素晴らしく、左手にダイアモンドヘッド、中央にワイキキの高層ビル群、右手にホノルル空港からパールハーバーと、ともみさんいわく「オワフ島の半分が見える」ものでした。
今日は天気も最高で、遠くモロカイ島までうっすら見えました️
ホノルル近場で自然を感じられるツアーでした
Thank you for your wonderful feedback! We are very pleased to hear that you enjoyed the experience of touching and learning about various plants during the Manoa Falls hiking tour. I will definitely pass this on to Jason and Tomomi. It's also great to know that you enjoyed the popular Andy's sandwiches while taking in the stunning views from Tantalus. We sincerely look forward to your participation in our tours again the next time you visit Hawaii!
素晴らしいご感想をありがとうございます!マノアの滝ハイキングツアーでは、植物の話を聞きながら、実際にいろいろと触れていただく体験をお楽しみいただけたようで、私たちも非常に嬉しいです。ジェイソンとともみにも、ぜひお伝えいたします。また、タンタラスの丘での絶景を眺めながら、人気のAndy'sのサンドイッチを堪能していただけたとのこと、本当に良かったです!次回ハワイにいらっしゃる際は、また、ぜひ弊社のツアーへのご参加を心よりお待ちしております!
It was a fun experience to fully enjoy nature! However, the guide only spoke English, so I couldn't understand anything and couldn't enjoy it to the fullest. Although the sand dust flew around and made my face completely black, it was an experience that you can't have in Japan to ride through while looking at the sea and mountains on a buggy.
大自然を満喫出来る楽しい体験でした!
ただ、ガイドは英語のみなので全く英語が分からず楽しみ切れませんでした。
砂ほこりが飛んで顔が真っ黒になるけどバギーで駆け抜けながら海や山を眺めるのは日本では出来ない体験でした。
Our hotel was called Ilikai, and it was a bit far from the meeting place at the Sheraton, but we appreciated the adjustment to gather at the Hilton Hotel five minutes earlier. Additionally, the locals spoke a little Japanese, which made us feel at ease. Since it was late August, there were only two other families besides us participating, so we were able to enjoy the tour bus comfortably. The local facilities were not crowded, and it turned out to be a day that the whole family could enjoy.
我々のホテルはイリカイと言って集合場所のシェラトンからは少し離れてましたが、ヒルトンホテルへ5分前に集合と言う事で調整して下さり助かりました。
また、現地の方々も片言の日本語を使って下さり安心出来ました。
8月下旬と言う事も有り参加者は我々の他2家族と少なく、ゆったりとツアーバスが利用出来たのも良かったです。
現地の施設も混雑はなく家族全員で楽しめました一日となりました。
It wax a excellent all day your.
Thd Dole pineapple tour was only gor thd morning. At the end of Dole tourr we were a pineapple each!! We an awesome lunch by thd beach and visited local shops and pints of interest.
Our guide was very friendly and informative.
Wrestling would recommend this tour
We had such a great time here. The staff was very friendly. The views were amazing and we were able to feed animals and drive freely around the ATV course
I had a great time. I'm satisfied!
I read experiences and took motion sickness medication before participating. I was worried seeing someone on the previous boat struggling with seasickness, but thanks to the medication, I was able to enjoy the entire experience until the end.
It was amazing to go higher than I expected and see Waikiki from the sea!
とても楽しかった
満足です!
体験談を読んで酔い止めを飲んで参加しました。
前の船に乗っていた方が船酔いで辛そうにしているのをを見て心配でしたが酔い止めのおかげか最後まで楽しく参加する事が出来ました。
思ったよりも高く上がってワイキキを海から見ることが出来て最高でした!!
The pickup, local guidance, and snorkeling instruction were all great! However, it was a bit disappointing that the visibility was low due to the light rain and waves...
お迎えから、現地案内、シュノーケリング指導、とてもよかったです!しかし、小雨で波があったので、透明度が低く残念。。。
It was my first horseback riding experience, and the instructor was kind, fun, and led us accurately. I thoroughly enjoyed the two hours of riding in the great outdoors.
初めての乗馬体験でしたが、インストラクターさんが優しく楽しく的確にリードしてくれて、大自然の中での2時間の乗馬を満喫しました。
Excellent experience Justin was an awesome tour guide.
I rode with cheerful staff and a lively group of five American girls. The boat was high-speed, and parasailing offered a great view of Waikiki, which was fun. It was efficient with three people per ride. The Hilton grounds were too vast and felt far away.
陽気なスタッフと、賑やかなアメリカ女子5人組と同乗しました。船もハイスピードで、パラセーリングもワイキキ一望出来て、楽しかったです。
3人づつ乗れて効率的でした。ヒルトン敷地が広すぎて、遠かった
There was also a Japanese video at the beginning, and during the ride, the staff provided directions in Japanese, which made me feel安心して楽しめました. I thought it would have been great if there had been time to take photos along the way. The scenery was beautiful, and I was able to enjoy a leisurely horseback ride.
はじめに日本語のビデオもあり、途中、スタッフの人が
方向を日本語で指示してくれて安心して楽しめました
途中で写真を撮る時間があったら最高だとおもいました
景色もよくゆっくり乗馬できました
When I traveled to Hawaii before, I did a Segway tour and had so much fun, so I chose the same Segway Kaka'ako course again. I requested a pickup, and it was just my husband and me. The guide was friendly and engaging, which made the experience enjoyable. Since it was our second time, we were able to start right after the briefing.
We took a lot of photos just the two of us, and the conversations were fun. The thrill of riding the Segway combined with the great experience made it very enjoyable. I appreciate the attentive service as well. On the way back, we were dropped off at the Ala Moana Shopping Center, which was convenient. If I get the chance to travel to Hawaii again, I would love to do the Segway tour once more.
前にハワイ旅行したときもセグウェイして、とても楽しかったので、また同じセグウェイのカカアココースにしました。
お迎えもお願いし、私たち夫婦だけで、行く時もお話してくれたり丁寧で楽しかったです。
2回目なのでレクチャーしてもらってすぐ出発することできました。
夫婦2人だけで写真もたくさんとっていただき、お話も楽しく、セグウェイの爽快感と合わせてとても楽しかったです。
丁寧な対応にも感謝します。
帰りはアラモアナショッピングセンターまで送ってもらい、合わせてよかったです。
また、ハワイ旅行できたら、セグウェイまたなりたいです。
アロハ、そして再びハワイのセグウェイに戻ってきていただき、ありがとうございます。私たちのウォールアートツアーはとても楽しく、VELTRAで共有していただいた写真が大好きです。
近い将来、再びツアーにお迎えできることを楽しみにしています。また、私たちの2時間のマジックアイランドビーチグライドを試してみるのもいいかもしれません。町のビーチパークを3つ巡りながら、海沿いを気軽に乗り回すのはとても楽しいですよ。特に、朝の混雑が少ない時間帯は最高です。
心温まるお言葉、マハロヌイです。
ハワイのセグウェイチームより
Aloha and thank you again for returning to Segway of Hawaii for another fun experience. our Wall Art Tour is so much fun and we love your photos you shared on VELTRA.
We look forward to welcoming you back on tour again in the near future....and, you might want to try our 2-Hour Magic Island Beach Glide - riding carefree in our three in-town
beach parks, all along the ocean is so delightful, especially in the mornings when the parks are less crowded.
Mahalo nui for your kind words.
THE SEGWAY OF HAWAII TEAM
I was a bit worried because it was mentioned that there wouldn't be a Japanese guide, but after seeing other people's posts and asking specific questions in advance, I received polite answers, which put me at ease.
Since the pickup was early, I wanted to have breakfast on the bus, but I found out that wasn't possible, so I was able to have breakfast beforehand and prepare my outfit.
The dust was quite intense, but I was ready for it, and above all, the scenery was wonderful. If I could wish for anything, I would have liked to explore the Jurassic Park filming locations a bit more.
It was a bit disappointing that all the explanations along the way were in English, so I couldn't understand much. Overall, I'm glad I participated!
日本語ガイドさんいないと記載あったので少し心配してましたが、他の方の投稿みたり、具体的にわからなかったことも事前に質問すると丁寧に回答いただき、安心できました。
質問内容は早いお迎えだったのでできたら、行きのバスの中で朝食食べたかったのですが、それはできないとわかり、事前に朝食すませたり、服装も準備できました。
砂埃がすごかったですが、汚れてもいい準備してましたし、何より素晴らしい景色でよかったです。
欲を言えばもう少しだけジュラシックパークのロケ地まわりもしたかったです。
また途中の説明は全部英語なのであまり理解できなかったのは残念でした。
全体通して参加してよかったです!
This activity involves flying a sail with a wire while running on a boat, similar to kite flying. You go quite high, but because the sail is large, the descent is slow, and you don't feel that floating sensation in your stomach. The view from above was beautiful and calm, with no swaying left or right except for the wind, but looking down brought a considerable sense of fear due to the height.
The check-in was quick, just a signature, but the waiting time before starting was about 30 minutes. We went quite far offshore, and with two people in each of the five groups, we each flew for about 10 minutes in turn. The boat keeps moving during the trip back and forth and while the other groups are flying, so I recommend taking motion sickness medication if you are prone to getting seasick.
On the way back, as the wire is reeled in, each group gets partially dipped in the sea, but we ended up completely soaked, so wearing clothes that can get wet is advisable. Three of the participants were travelers from the mainland United States, and two groups, including ours, were travelers from Japan.
凧揚げをするように船で走りながらワイヤー付きのセイルを飛ばすアクティビティです。
かなり高いところまで行きますがセイルが大きいため、降下時もゆっくりでお腹がふわっとなる感覚はありません。
上空も左右に振られず風以外は穏やかで美しい景色を見れましたが、足元を見ると高さで中々の恐怖感がありました。
受付はサインだけなのですぐに終わりましたが、始まるまでの待ち時間は30分くらい。
船でかなり沖合まで出て、2人×5組いたのでそれぞれ順番に10分程飛びました。
行き帰りと他の組が飛んでいる間、船は走り続けますので少しでも乗り物で酔う人は酔い止めを飲んでおくことをおすすめします。
ワイヤーを巻き取って戻ってくる途中、どの組も海に半分だけ漬けられるのですが、我々だけ全身浸かってしまいずぶ濡れになりましたので、濡れてもいい服装がおすすめです。
参加者は3組がアメリカ本土からの旅行者で、我々を含む2組は日本からの旅行者でした。
