All Reviews for Sightseeing / Guided Tours

Hiking in the rainforest was refreshing. Our guide, Terry, provided explanations in English (making it easy to understand even for those who are not good at English), so I was able to enjoy and learn at the same time.

熱帯雨林の中をハイキング、リフレッシュ出来ました。ガイドのテリーさんが、英語で説明(英語が苦手な人にも分かるように)をしながら案内してくれるので、学びながら楽しめました。

A real Aloha spirit was experience on this cruise. My family enjoyed it very much.
Food was good and the service was excellent!!!

I came back again this year. The scenery on this cruise was amazing. Unfortunately, I didn't see any whales, but I definitely want to plan for next year and participate again.

去年に続き、やってきました。このクルーズ景色はサイコーでした。
残念でしたがホエールは見れませんでした、来年も計画して是非参加したいです。

Loved the cultural center and all its history. I felt like we could have gotten there earlier if our tk guide didn't share so many personal stories. We had many beautiful stops but he'd wait till we sat back in our seats to stand and share stories. I'd prefer to get on the road and spend more time at stop points or cultural center

I usually rent a car and head north, but this time I decided to do everything through optional tours without renting a car. The guide was Japanese and provided detailed information, and I was able to see places I had never known about before, like Turtle Bay Hotel, which allowed me to relax.

いつもはレンタカーを借りてノース方面へ行っていましたが、今回はレンタカーを借りずにすべてオプショナルツアーにしてみました。ガイドの方は日本人で細かいところまで教えてくださり、今まで知らなかったタートルベイホテルなども見ることができてのんびりできました。

The activities, dancing, and MC were very good. The food, however was just average. I have been to several luau before all of which had a better food selection.

We loved this trip. The guide was super helpful and friendly. We will be booking this trip again.

Everything was wonderful. The food, and service... I will come back again

We had a great time but we didn't have enough time to see everything

I think our guides name was AC... he was amazing, had so much interesting information, made the drive to the north shore very entertaining.

First stop was Haleiwa Town on the north shore where we could have a look around and even got to try the famous shave ice. Next a drive along the shore to see all the amazing beaches and even some celebrity houses, then had a stop at the pipeline for some photos, and then he took us to see all the activities so we knew what they all were.

My friend and I chose the waterfall hike/swim, then AC took us the Waimea Bay for a swim, then the kayaking in the afternoon, and a great burger from Haleiwa Town. On the way back to Waikiki we stopped at a beach famous for turtles and we saw one on the beach. AC then dropped us off at the dole plantation - a complete surprise - so we could have a look around and try the dole whip. On the drive back AC played some stand up comedy on the tv so we could all relax and have a laugh.

Overall an incredible day!

I didn't see any tails splashing, but I did see whales multiple times and also witnessed spouting. I opted for the breakfast option, and it had more variety than I expected and was delicious, so I'm glad I chose it. The boat was large, so I didn't get seasick, and the restroom was clean. The view of Waikiki and Diamond Head from the sea was also wonderful! Even if you don't see whales, you can still enjoy the cruise. I would love to participate again.

しっぽバッシャーンのような姿は見られませんでしたが、何度もクジラの姿が見られたし、潮吹きも見られました。朝食付きにしましたが、思っていたよりも種類もあったしおいしかったので付けてよかったです。大きな船だったので船酔いもなく、トイレもきれい、海から見るワイキキ、ダイヤモンドヘッドの姿も素晴らしかったです！もしクジラが見られなくてもクルーズを楽しめます。また参加したいです。

The main event of this trip to Hawaii (laugh) was the whale cruise. The crew members were using binoculars on deck to search for whales, but we didn't see a single one... However, on the way there, we saw a small shark, and on the way back, three dolphins swam alongside the boat, so that was nice. I guess we were a bit late in the season... I'll try again next year.

今回のハワイ旅行のメインイベント（笑）である、クジラクルーズ。
乗組員のスタッフさん達が甲板で双眼鏡を使って探してくれていましたが、一頭も見られませんでした。。。
でも、往路では小さなサメ　復路の埠頭内ではイルカが三頭船に並走してくれたので　それだけでもよかったです。
時期が遅すぎたのでしょうか、、、、　
来年にリベンジします

Nice cruise. Food was good. Free to move up and down the boat. View was amazing. Caught the best sunset.

We had an amazing time on this tour, and our tour guide Rodolph was very friendly and knowledgable. I totally recommend this tour while visiting Hawaii-a sight worth experiencing.

We had a great time touring everything involved with this trip! It was a full 8 hours and our tour guide did a fabulous job of filling us in on lots of history and information about the island. REALLY ENJOYED!

We had a wonderful experience at the Star of Honolulu Sunset Dinner Cruise.
This was our second time, but we will absolutely go again.

We had a great time, enjoyed the food and first class service as well as entertainment and fireworks. The only negative was that if you eat different meals, you can't sit together in the same room. The staff did make accommodation and get us together but we never got the steak and lobster that was paid for with the more expensive meal.

Had a blast! Several whale sightings. The lunch was fantastic. Hula lessons, lei making and yukelele lessons. Service was impecable. My kids and husband had a fantastic time.

Veltra service was perfect. The communication through emails from booking to email reminders as reservation day approached to even a phone call was all above board. We had no problems at the park when we got there with our email confirmation for all activities. It was a time saver at the park.

It was very convenient! There were four lines available for unlimited rides, but since I didn't use them that much, it felt a bit expensive. However, I'm glad there was a trolley.

とても便利でした！
４つのラインが乗り放題でしたが、そんなに沢山は乗らなかったのでちょっと高いかなってところですね‼︎でもトロリーあってよかったです。

I participated in a tour to the North Shore, which is not easy to access when traveling alone, and I had my first horseback riding experience. During the long drive, I had a great time thanks to the guide's talk and quizzes. It was my first time riding, but the horses were very gentle, and I was able to ride comfortably. Even after returning home, the joy of horseback riding lingered, along with some soreness (laughs). I would love to join this tour again!

1人旅では、なかなか行きにくいノースショアと、初めての乗馬体験で参加しました。
長いドライブ中も、ガイドさんのトーク＆クイズで、とても楽しく過ごさせて頂きました。
初めての乗馬でしたが、とても大人しい馬達で快適に乗馬出来ました。帰国後も乗馬の楽しみは、お尻の痛みと共に余韻が残りました(笑)
また、参加したいツアーです‼️

The day started with a hotel pickup, and we participated as a group of seven. Along the way, our guide provided various explanations, and we split up at the Pineapple Station (where we enjoyed pineapple soft serve).

We explored Haleiwa and had a delicious meal at a garlic shrimp place recommended by our guide (not the famous Macky's, but a restaurant run by a Japanese person named Nishikawa, where they carefully cleaned the shrimp). Of course, we also enjoyed Matsumoto Shave Ice.

After that, we were taken to a homey place called Happy Trails for a horseback riding course in Waimea Valley. The guide translated the English explanations for us, so we felt comfortable participating. The horses were as smart as the reviews said, and we enjoyed the ride with views of the ocean. It was my first time riding, and I thoroughly enjoyed it.

From there, we gathered again in Haleiwa to meet the LUCKY HONU (sea turtles)! The guide was truly knowledgeable and took us to a beach where we could reliably encounter them, allowing us to take great photos.

Overall, it was a truly fulfilling day. Thank you very much. I would like to participate in the coastal course next time.

ホテルのピックアップから始まり、3パーティ７人で参加しました。途中の道のりも色々と説明してくれて、パイナップルステーションで其々に分かれました。（そこではパイナップルソフトを食す）
私達は ハレイワ散策をして、ガイドさんお勧めのガーリックシュリンプのお店でおいしく頂きました（有名なマッキーズではございません。日本人の西川さんがやっている、ちゃんと背ワタを丁寧に取ったシュリンプです）。勿論マツモトシェイブアイスも食しました。
その後ワイメア渓谷の乗馬コースでアットホームなhappy trailsに送ってもらい、英語の説明も側で訳してくれたので安心して参加出来ました。
馬も口コミ通りお利口で登り下り そして海も望め、初乗馬でしたが充分に堪能出来ました。
そこから再度ハレイワで皆んな集合してLUCKY HONU（ウミガメ）に逢いに！
ガイドさんは本当に情報を持っていて、有名な所ではなく、ちゃんと出逢える海岸に連れて行ってもらいしっかりと写真に収める事が出来て良かったです。
全体を通して 本当に充実した1日でした。
ありがとうございました。
次回は海岸コースに参加してみたいです。

Great cost performance!
Great service!
Great food !
Great entertainment!

I must say I was a little skeptical... It turned out to be fantastic. We decided to go on this dinner cruise for my wife's birthday and we thoroughly enjoyed every bit of it. The food was great...surprising for a huge amount of people. The drinks, entertainment, the vessel, the views all spectacular. And the staff were first rate!!!! I would definitely do this again and quite frankly for the price...it is truly a bargain!!!

I joined this time because I really wanted to drink the lemonade in Haleiwa.

The former public servant guide kindly took us right to the shop, so I was able to reach the lemonade I was looking for!

It was incredibly delicious, and I had a wonderful time.

Previously, I didn't have much time in Haleiwa and couldn't see much, but this tour had plenty of time, allowing me to relax.

Thank you very much.

今回、どうしてもハレイワのレモネードを飲みたくて参加しましたー。

元公務員のガイドさんがお店の前まで送ってくださったので、目的のレモネードにたどり着くことができましたー！

すんごく美味しくて、幸せな時間でした。

以前はハレイワの時間が少なくてあまり見ることができなかったのですが、今回参加したツアーはたっぷり時間があり、ゆっくりすることができましたー。

ありがとうございました。

It was great experience . we enjoyed celebrated our little ones first bday !! we enjoyed the food it was delicious!! a memorable experience!!!

We saw no sea life at all. Not much seating and the whale guarantee was no good as it didn't cover transportation and times are very limited. Not worth the money, was told by others to take a smaller vessel next time.

The history and the whole thing about pearl harbor was excellent , we were sadden that half of our tour was cancelled and there was no compensation for it .

It was great to see the locations used in the show and see how they made some of the scenes work.

The show was really great. I've never seen this show before, I would suggest everyone see it at least once.
