Third cultural experience tour (hula) 3回目の文化体験ツアー（フラ）

Reviewed by: hoku lani

I participated with four friends from my hula class. Before the hula lesson, we received information about the plants that were planted and explanations of the exhibits in the building (which were very educational), and then we had our beloved Noelani's lesson... Amazingly, it was just the four of us experiencing it!!! We even had time to practice writing the hula and I made sure to remember it well for my return home.

However, it's unfortunate that the shuttle service from Honolulu to the Bishop Museum, which was included in the past two visits, was no longer available this time. I was considering taking The Bus, but since the start time is in the morning, I thought there would be many students commuting. So, I took a taxi there (which took about 20 minutes) and returned by The Bus. On the way back, there were many students on board, and I had to stand for about an hour. Since our time was limited, that hour of travel was precious, so I hope they will reinstate the shuttle service.

フラ教室の仲間4人と参加しました。フラレッスン前に植えられている植物のお話や館内での展示物の説明（とっても勉強になりました。）を受け、大好きなノエラニのレッスンに…。なんと私たち4人だけで体験することに!!!振りを書く時間もあり、しっかり覚えて帰国しました。

ただ、残念なのが過去2回はホノルルからビショップミュージアムの送迎付だったのに今回からなくなっていました。ザ・バスの移動と考えてましたが、開始時間が朝なので時間帯から学校へ通う学生がたくさん乗るだろうと、行きはタクシー（所要時間20分）帰りはザ・バスで移動。帰りも学生がたくさん乗ってて1時間ぐらい立ちっぱなしでした。滞在時間が限られているので、1時間の移動は貴重なので送迎付を復活してほしいです。

Royal Star Pearl Harbor Experience with Tickets to Arizona Memorial & City Tour

Highlight sight

Reviewed by: Jeremy

My girlfriend Constance and I were highly recommended to do this tour prior to our trip to Hawaii and we were not disappointed. This tour will now be top of our list of recommendations to other friends and family as it is as breathtaking and exhilarating as expected. The sights seen on this tour is truly unbelievable and needs to be seen to be believed. As a couple, we were slightly hesitant as we are more the adventurous type, however this tour still gave us a great look into history of the island which was some amazing stuff. It was very informative and interesting and really gave us Australians a little glimpse of what the U.S had endured back in the day. If and when my girlfriend and I return to Hawaii (I'm sure we will soon) we will most likely do this tour again, as the views and sights cannot be compared to anything else. We are so glad we went ahead with this booking and tour because the tour guide and transportation to and from were great also to make for a perfect day.

Must do tour in Oahu

Reviewed by: Hugo Lopez

The Pearl Harbor tour was one of the best tours we did during our vacation in Oahu. Our driver Larry was very informative during the tour. We got a little taste of the history of Oahu. Larry made our tour very interesting and entertaining. He gave us lots of stories bout the history of Hawaii that previous to taking the tour we were not aware of. The city of Honolulu had numerous historical places to visit. Once we arrived to Pearl Harbor, we were very excited. Larry spoke about the historical importance Pearl Harbor had in American history. The movie that was played before the boat ride to the memorial was very well made. It was very interesting and educational. The fact that it had actual video footage from the attack of Pearl Harbor made it very real and emotional. Furthermore,the tour to the SS Arizona memorial was amazing. It's definitely something I would recommend to anyone visiting Oahu. Being on the memorial and seeing the names of all the people who lost their lives on the SS Arizona was very moving. The tour is very well organized that it's interesting for the whole family.

I attended my mother's 77th birthday celebration with my sister and brother. 母の喜寿祝いに妹と3人で参加しました。

Reviewed by: マノン

To get to the Bishop Museum, I took The Bus number 2 from the bus stop at Sheraton Waikiki, which is a 3-minute walk from the hotel, departing at 08:03. After about 45 minutes, I got off at School St. and entered the museum around 09:00.

I had no worries since I confirmed all this information with the hotel staff and the bus driver before departing.

Upon arrival, I received an explanation of the museum from a Japanese staff member named Aya, who loves and has studied Hawaiian culture. After that, I took a beginner hula lesson for about an hour. The instructor, Noelani Chang, was visiting from Japan, and the lesson was conducted by her niece.

The song we learned was "Halema,uma,u." My mother is an intermediate hula dancer with over three years of experience in Japan, but my sister and I were first-timers. However, wearing matching colored pāu skirts, we followed the instructor's movements and managed to learn four parts within an hour. Although we made some mistakes here and there, we were able to dance through the entire song.

At the end, we took a commemorative group photo, and afterward, we enjoyed making leis using plumeria flowers and long green leaves (I forgot the name) that had been thawed and softened, which we took home as souvenirs.

It was a very fulfilling tour, and everyone was extremely satisfied. On the way back, one person got off to visit Foster Botanical Garden, Izumo Taisha, and Chinatown, and we returned to Waikiki via the HIS free trolley from King's Village.

　ビショップミュージアムへは、宿泊先のシェラトンワイキキから徒歩3分のバス停08：03発のＴｈｅ　Ｂｕｓｓ２番に乗車、約45分走行後のＳｃｈｏｏｌSt.で下車し、09：00頃入館しました。
　こういった情報については、ホテルスタッフやバス運転手に十分な確認をとってから出発したので不安はありませんでした。
　到着後は、ハワイ文化が好きで勉強したという日本人スタッフのＡＹＡさんから、館内説明を受け、その後、約1時間のフラ（初級）レッスンを受けました。
　　講師のＮoelani Chang（ノエラニ　チャン）さんは、丁度日本の教室へ出張中という事で、その姪御さんからのレッスンとなりました。
　曲目はHalema,uma,u「ハレマウマウ」
　母は日本でのフラ経験3年以上の中級者ですが、妹と私は初体験でした。でも、色違いのパウスカートを身に着けて、講師のするとおりに踊り、1時間で何とか４つのパートを覚え、ところどころ間違いながらも、通して1曲踊れるまでになりました。
　最後に皆で記念撮影、その後は、プルメリアの花と解凍して柔らかくした緑色の長い葉っぱ（名前は忘れました）を使ったレイ作りを楽しみ、お土産に持ち帰りました。
　とても充実したツアーとなり、皆大満足でした。
　帰りのバスでは、一人途中下車して、フォスター植物園、出雲大社、チャイナタウンを歩いて回り、キングスビレッジからＨＩＳの無料トロリーでワイキキまで戻って来ました。

Outstanding Tour!

Reviewed by: SteveB&Family

Larry, our motor coach driver went the extra mile for us. Very informative, funny and pleasant; but somber/respectful when appropriate. It does not matter if you are a history buff or not-- a very moving experience to see where our WW2 began and where it ended. The Punch Bowel National Memorial brings it all home and makes you proud to be an American in the resting place of those who made the ultimate sacrifice.

Reviewed by: チョコママ1024

I visited the Bishop Museum with 15 members of my hula class and experienced a hula lesson. Although the hula teacher was absent and we had an assistant instead, I was very satisfied to receive an authentic hula lesson. Everything was explained in Japanese except for the hula teacher, which made it very easy to understand.

Pearl harbor deluxe motorcoach shuttle

Reviewed by: Kate

Our Pearl Harbor Deluxe Motorcoach shuttle tour was one of our favourite experiences on our hawaii holiday. We were welcomed by a friendly and humerous tour guide who made our tour fun and very informative. We started our information session on the Arizona memorial which included a screening of a video clip looking back into the era of the invasion of the japanese into pearl harbor and the demolage that was to take place. We learnt that on that fatal day the Japanese bombed that no one at pearl harbour that day were aware of the Japanese planes nearing and were not prepared for the carnage that was to follow. We then took the ferry over to the Arizona memorial where we got to look upon the sunken Arizona battleship and pay respect to all those who deceased on that ship. We then caught the ferry back and then took a bus over to the U.S.S Missouri ship where a tour guide explained the importance of the ships past etc. where the japanese signed the treaty with the u.s. to end the war and its use in three wars. We were then able to explore the ship by ourselves and see where the soldiers once bunked, ate, and took to everyday duties on the ship. We then bought a few items from the gift shop and met our motorcoach tour guide back at the coach to continue on to see the sights of Punch Bowl cemetary and Honolulu. Our tour guide continued to show us important sights and buildings around honolulu.
We got to see the beauty of the honolulu landscape which include tropical and international plant life and amazing architecture. We were then taken back to our hotel where we were dropped right outside and thanked our amazing tour guide for a great day had.

We had a great time, a truly awesome experience! The tour itself is a truly educationaland an emotional place, and the memorial is just absolutely beautiful. It had always been a goal to be able to make it to the Pearl Harbor Memorial, and I was finally able to make it thanks to this tour! We had a splendid tour guide, which made things even better. Patrick, our tour guide was great, informative, and friendly! I will definitely be doing this trip again up my return to Honolulu, Hawaii with my family, and hopefully we have Patrick or another great tour guide like him. I enjoyed all of the lovely sites to see. It was a gorgeous tour, I definitely recommend this trip to all my family and friends, actually in general I recommend this tour to any and everyone. :)

Reviewed by: soie

I took my mother to Hawaii for the first time, and we participated in this activity where we could experience a museum, hula lessons, and lei making all at once. I've visited Hawaii many times before, but this place is an amazing hidden gem!!! The historical buildings are impressive, and the exhibits are wonderfully rich and engaging, making it easy to spend an entire day without getting bored. The hula lesson lasted a full hour, and the teacher was very easy to understand. Lei making was also fun, and my mother was very satisfied. I recommend this for both repeat visitors to Hawaii and first-timers!

Honolulu Winter Wonderland & Christmas City Lights Double-Decker Bus Tour from Aloha Tower

honolulu city lights trolley

Reviewed by: BJAM

This was overall very very disappointing. We went on this tour on Christmas eve with our young family, our daughter was excited to go on one of the trolleys and sing Christmas carols, as she had seen them drive along Waikiki. Firstly there was no trolley, but a double decker bus. The driver explained at the outset that because they had changed to a bus, he would not be able to sing or talk along the way. It was promoted as 90 minute trip, but it was actually 45 minutes in total. The lights indeed were lovely but the experience was disappointing

Enjoyed experience, but don't leave anything on the bus.
Our driver Patrick said it would be OK to leave items on bus during tour, because he would lock up the bus, but failed to tell us that he would go back to the city to return other guests on the shorter tour and return for us later, hence my wife's pink shawl went missing

I want to learn hula again. またフラを習いたくなりました

Reviewed by: otomi.G

This was my third time in Hawaii, but I hadn't been able to go to the Bishop Museum's hula lesson due to scheduling conflicts, so I finally participated for the first time! A famous teacher is currently giving lessons in Japan, so his daughter stepped in as a substitute, and it was a lot of fun. It was a moment where I could truly clear my mind after a long time. There were also plenty of other activities like a Japanese-language tour and lei-making. The staff in charge of Japanese were all wonderful, and I had a great time. However, the location of the bus stop to Waikiki is quite difficult to find, so be careful. Even though I received a map, I made mistakes twice. Make sure to find School Street and take Route 2!

ハワイは3回目だけど、なかなか日程が合わず行けなかったビショップミュージアムのフラレッスンに初参加！有名な先生がいま日本でレッスン中ということで娘さんがピンチヒッターで教えてくださったけど、楽しかった。ひさびさに無心になれたひと時でした。そのほかにも日本語の館内ツアー、レイ作りなど盛りだくさん。日本語担当のかたもみんな素敵で、非常に楽しかったです。ただし、ワイキキへのバス停の位置はかなりわかりにくいので注意。地図をもらったのに2回も間違えました。スクールストリートをうまく見つけて、2番ルートに乗ってください！
