All Reviews for Waikiki Beach

This cruise was awesome! Booked it as a gift for my boyfriend and we had a blast. The crew was friendly, Ryan helped break the ice with the group. I was especially looking forward to the open bar and was happily surprised by a DELICIOUS specialty cocktail they had pre made. We were lucky enough to see a whale breach not far from us while we were sailing. I will definitely recommend this to everyone I know- such a great way to spend a few hours.

great entertainment and food. it was very enjoyable. the kids loved it.

The company was very professional. The pilot was very knowledgeable and personable and provided a great narration. We saw 2/3rds of the island and had some exciting moments flying over cliffs and through valleys. Unfortunately, the hull-mounted video camera quit working just 5 minutes into the 45 minute ride. We were certain we wanted to buy the video of our flight and the accompanying narration so we were disappointed that it wasn't going to be possible. The company provided us with a sales DVD that included many of the same sights we experienced, however, the special nature of the video of our flight was lost.

The whale showed its tail and pectoral fins several times. Even without a tour, you can see whales from points like Makapu'u during this season, but you can't get as close as you can on a tour. I wish I could have seen it jump!

しっぽと胸ビレをバタバタ何度か見せてくれました。
ツアーでなくてもこの時期はマカプウ等の岬からもクジラみれますが、やはりツアーほどの近いポジションで拝めることはなかったです。
ジャンプが見れたらよかったなぁ！

Our first activity of our week on Oahu, and our favorite. Pricey...yes, but exciting. And, it gave perspective to all the things we did later in the week. Our pilot pointed out, as we flew over, where the President usually vacations, where Gilligan's Island was filmed, where Jurrasic Park was filmed, the Marine base, the closed, dangerous falls, the plantations, the North shore and Sunset Beach, the Polynesian Cultural Center, and flew us on the same approach the Japanese took in 1941 across Hickam and Wheeler Fields and down onto Pearl Harbor. Brodie, our pilot is a former Marine stationed on Oahu. He was friendly and very knowledgeable. Brodie spotted two Grey Whales off the North shore, flew out a bit and did some orbits over them so we could all see them. My wife forgot her light jacket, so a ground employee lent his hoodie to her. Absolutely magnificent!

I think it's a great deal compared to other similar services in Hawaii. The staff on the board were friendly and very good. The meeting place was on the beach, so it was a bit hard to find, but I'm satisfied.

ハワイ内の他の同サービスの物と比較すると格安と思います。ボードのスタッフはフレンドリーでとてもよかったです。待ち合わせ場所がビーチなので、少し見つけづらかったですが、満足です。

I was able to see whales. The explanation in Japanese was clear and easy to understand. However, the latter part felt a bit stretched out.

鯨見れました。日本語の説明もありわかりやすかったです。
しかし、終盤はちょっと間延びした感じです。

My children, aged 12 and 8, participated in private surfing lessons. Even without being able to speak English, they were able to enjoy the lessons and had a great time surfing. It was their first time surfing, but the waves in Waikiki are definitely recommended for beginners! They were able to ride the waves right away! Thanks to this, we were very satisfied! My kids have come to love surfing!

子ども、12歳と8歳とプライベートサーフィンレッスンに参加してきました。英会話できなくても、レッスン受けられる、楽しくサーフィンレッスン受けられ、子供達は、
サーフィン初めてでしたが、ワイキキの、波は初心者には、絶対オススメです！すぐに波乗りできました！
おかげで、大満足！子供達は、サーフィン大好きに、なりました！

An absolutely fun-filled, relaxing sail. The crew were welcoming and attentive--you could charge twice the price for this cruise and it would be packed every time. We will certainly do this again when we return to Hawaii.

We went to Hawaii for our wedding anniversary. I was really looking forward to whale watching, but unfortunately, we couldn't see any. It's a natural occurrence, so I understand, but I would have been happy to see at least something else if we couldn't see the whales. It's disappointing.

結婚記念日で、ハワイに行きました。
ホエールウォッチングとっても、楽しみにしていましたが、見る事が出来なく残念でした。自然のものなので、しょうがないですが鯨が見れないならせめて違うものが少しでも見れたら嬉しかったですが、残念です。

Such a fun evening. Great food, drinks, entertainment, and service! Would highly recommend.

Was entertaining,a good family show to see. Performers had awesome voices.

At the meeting point, I was told, "You can see them today!!" and indeed, I was able to clearly see the spouting and the tail fin.

The instructor provides directions in Japanese on where to look.

Since the ocean is vast and a bit far away, it's better to bring binoculars.

To get closer, we turned off the engine and approached while swaying with the waves, which made me seasick, so I stayed on the observation deck the whole time. If you're prone to motion sickness, it might be a good idea to take some medication.

Before boarding the boat, they take photos, which I purchased to take home.

集合場所で、「今日は見れますよ！！」と言われた通り、
潮を吹くのや、尾びれなどがはっきりと見えました。

インストラクターの方が、見える方向などを日本語で教えてくれます。

やはり広い海、少し遠いので、オペラグラスを持って行ったほうがいいです。

近づく為に、エンジンを切って波に揺れながら近づくので私は船酔いしてしまい、
展望デッキにずっといました。
乗り物酔いされる方は酔い止めを飲まれたほうがいいかもしれません。

船に乗る前に写真を撮ってくれるのですが、それを購入して帰りました。

Snorkeling was awesome! We swam with turtles and fish and even saw whales as a bonus. Captain Steve and Travis were great, very entertaining! Highly recommend!

This catamaran sail was great! The crew made us all feel comfortable and safe. Drinks were free and the MaiTais were very tasty. The Captain moored us in a great place to see the fireworks and then sailed towards Waikiki to see a beautiful moon rise. Great tour all the way around.

For a land lubber prone to sea sickness, this is the only way I could see whales in the ocean. The Navetek ship is amazing for it's stability whether you need it to eliminate nausea, or you are a photographer requiring a steady perch for your telephoto lens.
On the day I went, late Feb, the whales were awesome. There were many families. Lots of breaching, tail displays and some sort of pod wrestling among males, that I had never known about. I dreamed of whales that night.

I had a very enjoyable time on this occasion.

At first, I was guided to the green room, and although I felt a bit nervous about the reception, I was excited and thrilled about this first-time experience.

The photo session with the performers was also a very exciting moment.

I was taken behind the scenes and to the dressing room, places that are usually hard to see, and the manager provided clear explanations. I was deeply moved to be able to experience something that is not normally possible. The staff were all cheerful and beautiful, which was also very impressive.

The dinner was delicious, but it was a bit too much for us (including my friends), and we couldn't finish it. I felt a bit rushed as I was falling behind the pace of those around us. By the time dessert came, I was so full that I couldn't enjoy it, which was disappointing.

The highlight of this tour was definitely the showtime. Every song was very familiar to me, and both the singing and the talk were wonderful. I was so moved by the singing that I almost cried. The dancers around me were also fantastic, and I was completely captivated by their performance. I felt surprised and laughed, and time seemed to fly by.

The photo session after the show was fun as well. If I could wish for something, I would have liked to take more photos with the dancers.

It became the best memory of our trip. Thank you very much!

この度は、とても楽しいひと時を過ごすことができました

始めはグリーンルームに案内していただき、丁寧な説明と、接待に少し気後れしながらも、初めての体験にわくわくドキドキしました。

ショーの出演者との撮影会もとてもわくわくできた一瞬でした

舞台裏や化粧室など、普段なかなか見られないところを、支配人から案内してもらい、わかりやすく説明していただき、普通では体験できないことができて、とても感動しました
スタッフの皆さんもにこやかで、綺麗な人ばかりでとても感動でした

ディナーは、おいしかったのですが、私たち（友人を含め）少しボリュームがありすぎ、食べきれませんでした。周囲の食べるペースからも置いて行かれぎみで焦ってしまいました。。デザートの時にはおなかいっぱいで、おいしくいただけなかったのが残念でした

このツアーの中でやはり、一番、良かったのはショータイムでした
どの歌も、とてもよく知っている歌で、歌声も、トークも素晴らしかったです。歌声を聴いてつい感動で涙が出そうになりました。合わせて周りで盛り上げているダンサーの方たちのダンスも、とても素敵で、目を奪われてばかりでした。びっくりしたり、笑ったり、時間もあっという間に過ぎたように思えました
ショー後の、写真撮影会も楽しかったです。
欲をいえば、周りのダンサーの方たちとももっと、写真を撮りたかったです

私達の旅の最高の思い出になりました。ありがとうございました

It was my first time in Hawaii, and I thought I couldn't miss this tour during this season, but the results far exceeded my expectations. Dolphins swam alongside the boat in a line, and I was able to see sea turtles clearly underwater. To top it all off, a whale surfaced in the distance and spouted water! Super lucky! The guide who spoke Japanese was really fun, and seeing Waikiki from the sea with the ocean breeze was the best.

初めてのハワイでしたがこの時期のこのツアーははずせないと思って参加しましたが結果はまさにはるかに期待を上回るのものでした。なんとイルカが列をなしてボートの横を泳ぎ、海中ではウミガメもしっかり見れて、最後にはなんとクジラさんが遠くに顔を出して潮をふいてくれました。超ラッキー！日本語のできるガイドさんは本当に楽しく海からみるワイキキも潮風も最高でした。

It was when I was about to give up. A whale jumped! I couldn't help but shout. Actually, I was so moved that I couldn't make a sound. After that, it seemed like it was a mother and baby whale, and we got to see the whale tail several times. My wife and I kept saying that we want to come back and see it again.

諦めかけた時でした。クジラがジャンプしたんです。叫んじゃいました。って言うか、感動して声が出ませんでした。その後も、親子連れのクジラだったらしく、ホエールテールも何度も見せてもらえました。妻ともまた、見にきたいね、ってずーっと言っていました。

The submarine itself was battery-operated and hardly made any noise, but due to considerable waves, nearly half of the participants got seasick, and as a result, I also felt a bit unwell and couldn't fully enjoy the underwater experience. I found it a bit unkind that the information didn't mention seasickness much. I would like to try again when the waves are calmer. The transportation and boarding process were very easy to understand.

潜水艦自体はバッテリー駆動で殆ど音が気にならなっかたが、かなりの波浪で参加者の半数近くが船酔いになり、その影響で自分も少し気分が悪くなり、じっくり海中を楽しめなかった。案内には船酔いのことが余り触れて無かったのが少し不親切かな？もう一度波の穏やかな時再度チャレンジしたい。送迎，搭乗とうに関しては、とてもわかりやすかった。

I am a frequent traveler to the Islands. I lived on Oahu for three years. The Navatek never fails!!!!! Again this year we were able to see the whales. 2 mating pods and a bonus of spinner dolphins entertaining us. If you want to see the whales the best time to go is early in the morning, on the Navatek, and before the end of March. I see them every year! :) Enjoy the pictures.

We saw whales within minutes and continued to see them throughout the cruise. Also, a giant green sea turtle.

This time, I went on a company trip. Even though it was my first time overseas, let alone Hawaii, it was a place where I could lead the employees. Even if I arrived early at the meeting point, I could pass the time at the hotel's café or souvenir shop, and the show itself was fantastic. At the climax, several guests were invited on stage to dance! Our staff was also called up (laughs), and we made great memories (*^o^*). The food was delicious in a buffet style as well. I want to go again! Thank you very much ^_^

今回は、社員旅行で行きました。ハワイどころか海外が初めてな私でも、社員を引率出来る場所にあり、早めに現地集合場所に行ってもホテル内のカフェやお土産屋さんで時間を潰せましたし、ショー自体最高でした。クライマックスでは、お客様を数名ステージに招いて、ダンス！ウチのスタッフも呼ばれて（笑）いい思い出が出来ました(*^o^*)
お料理も、ビュッフェ形式で美味しかったです♫また、行きたいです！ありがとうございました^_^

This experience became the most valuable part of my trip to Hawaii.

I was guided from the VIP entrance to the backstage green room, and I was thrilled to be welcomed with champagne and light snacks.

The fresh fruit platter was very delicious, but the bacon-wrapped pineapple left the biggest impression on me.

The green room was a lovely space where I could relax comfortably.

The manager's tour of the backstage allowed me to see the stars getting their makeup done in the dressing room, and I was very happy to take photos and shake hands with them—experiences that are not possible in everyday life.

In the costume room, all the costumes used in past concerts were on display, and I was impressed by the intricate craftsmanship of each one. The costume worn by [name] weighed nearly 5 kilograms, and seeing them dance vigorously on stage in that heavy outfit made my heart swell.

During the stage tour, I was carefully shown the stage equipment, and at the end, we took a commemorative photo on stage, feeling like stars (laughs).

After the backstage tour, we were guided to our seats. And here’s another surprise! We had the best seats in the house right at the front (laughs).

The pre-show dinner was beautifully presented, like something from a top-notch restaurant, and each dish was outstanding—definitely the best food I had during my trip to Hawaii.

I felt a very strong sense of hospitality, welcoming guests without missing a single detail.

The show I saw after the manager's tour was even more entertaining! I believe the enjoyment of this experience is a hundred times clearer when you actually experience it rather than just reading about it.

There’s no doubt that all guests receive first-class hospitality and a wonderful stage experience.

If you take advantage of the green room, dinner, and show, the price is certainly not cheap, but I believe the satisfaction is incomparable.

I had a wonderful experience with VIP treatment, so I give it 5 stars. I am very satisfied.

今回の体験はハワイ旅行の中で一番価値のあるものとなりました。

ＶＩＰエントランスからバックステージのグリーンルームに案内され、
ウエルカムドリンクにシャンパンと軽食でお出迎えに感激でした。

新鮮なフルーツの盛り合わせも非常に美味しかったですが、
私はパイナップルのベーコン包みが、一番印象に残っています。

グリーンルームはゆったりとくつろげる素敵な空間でした。

支配人にバックステージの案内は
楽屋室でスター達がメイクをしているところを見せて頂いたり
一緒に写真を撮って握手をしてくれたりと
日常では経験出来ないが事が出来てとても嬉しかったです。

衣装室には今までのコンサートで使用してきた衣装がすべて残っており、
どれもこれも精密な作りで関心いたしました。
〇〇さんの衣装が上下合わせて５キロ近くはあり、
本番のステージであの重い衣装を着て激しく踊っている姿を見て、
とても胸があつくなりました。

ステージの案内では舞台装置など丁寧に教えて頂き
最後にステージでスター気分での記念撮影(笑。

以上でバックステージの案内が終わり、客席に案内されました。
ここでもビックリ！私達は一番前の特等席です(笑

開演前のディナーは一流のお店で出てくるような美しい盛付、
一つ一つの味も抜群の料理、ハワイ旅行の中で一番美味しい料理でした。

何一つ抜かりなくゲストを歓迎する、おもてなしの心を非常に強く感じました。

支配人の案内の後に見たショーは、一層おもしろかったです！
このおもしろさは文で読むよりも、実際に体験いただいた方が
１００倍分かりやすいと思います。

すべてのゲストに一流のおもてなしと素晴らしいステージであることは間違いありません。

その中でもやはりグリーンルーム・ディナー＆ショーを利用されたなら、
お値段は決して安くないですが
その満足度は比べものにならないものだと思いますよ。

ＶＩＰ待遇の素晴らしい体験ができたので☆５つ。大満足。

Booking an activity online can be a pain, but with this site it was not. The pick up and drop off service is excellent
Surf Instructors was awesome in preparing me and the rest of us newbies on what not to do and what to be prepared for The instructor I had was pateint and very knowledgable in surfing I caught almost every wave with ease. I had fun and would surf again.

We boarded in the evening on the day of arrival. I was fine, but my wife was a bit off due to jet lag, so it seemed to be a little tough for her. I was lying down on the internet, enjoying the quiet time. There were only two of us Japanese, and about 15 Westerners, so I could really feel the overseas atmosphere. It might be better to speak a little English. However, I personally liked the slow flow of time and the atmosphere without Japanese people. It might be better to avoid the day of arrival...

到着日の夕方から乗りました。
自分は大丈夫でしたが、嫁は少し時差で体調がいまいちだったので、
少ししんどかったみたいです。
ネットに寝転がり、静かな時間を感じていました。
日本人は私達2名だけで、欧米人が15名ぐらいでしたので、海外を感じることが出来ました。
少し英語を話せたほうがいいかもしれません。
ただ、ゆっくりと流れる時間と日本人がいない雰囲気は個人的に好きでした。
到着日は避けたほうがいいかもしれません。。。

This is my second time participating, and it met my expectations. Taking photos is difficult without a high magnification telephoto lens, so I was moved by the photos taken by the accompanying photographer. The Japanese guide was also skilled and it was great.

二度目の参加ですが期待通り。写真撮影は相当な倍率の望遠が無いと難しいので同乗したカメラマンの写真を見て感動。日本語ガイドも上手で良かったです。

It was a calm and sunny day, with little movement on the water. Shortly after departure, within just five minutes, we encountered a mother and baby whale, and they swam alongside us for two hours. It seems that the law prohibits getting closer than 100 meters, so I couldn't take the photos I wanted with my iPhone lens. I recommend bringing a professional camera if you have one. If you have binoculars, you'll be able to see them in even more impressive detail.

穏やかに晴れた日で、揺れも少なかったです。
出港後、5分もしないうちに鯨の親子と遭遇、以降並走するように2時間ずっと一緒でした。
法律で100m以内に近づいていけないそうで、iPhoneのレンズでは思うような写真は撮れませんでしたので、本格的なカメラをお持ちの方は持参されることをお勧めします。
双眼鏡があればさらに迫力のある姿を見ることができると思います。

I participated in February.
I saw the reviews and brought a fleece jacket just in case, but it wasn't necessary.
The weather was really nice, and the sunset was perfect!!
However, the small boat swayed a lot.
I got seasick and regretted not bringing motion sickness medication.
I had never gotten motion sickness on any vehicle before, so I let my guard down.

When getting on and off, my knees got a little wet.
Depending on the waves, I got soaked up to my waist.
I participated with my 4-year-old son, but there was no requirement for children to wear life jackets.

I got seasick, but I was able to see the sunset beautifully, so I was very satisfied!

By the way, before boarding, they took a photo of the boat with Diamond Head in the background, which you can buy for $15 on the way back.
The photo turned out really nice, so I purchased it♪

Also, the captain was a really cool guy, and all the announcements were in English.
He spoke quickly, and I didn't understand half of what he was saying (^_^;)

2月に参加しました。
口コミを見て、警戒してフリースの上着を持って行ったけど、必要ありませんでした。
とってもいいお天気で、サンセットもバッチリでした！！
ただ小さい船なので、とっても揺れます
私は船酔いしてしまい、酔止め持ってこなかったことを後悔しました。
船はもちろん、乗り物で酔ったことなかったので油断しました。

乗り降りの際に膝ちょっと上まで濡れます。
波のタイミングによっては腰までビッショリです。
4歳の息子を連れて参加しましたが、「子供はライフジャケット着用」ではなかったです。

酔っちゃったけど、サンセットはキレイに見られたし、大満足です！

余談ですが、乗船前に船とダイヤモンドヘッドをバックに写真をとってくれて、帰りに$15で買えます。
かなりキレイにとれていて購入しました♪

あと、船長はめっちゃカッコイイおじさんで、アナウンスも全て英語です
早口で、何言ってるか半分もわからなかった(^_^;)

This cruise is very classy. From dinner to show Done it 3 time
