All Reviews for Top Places to Visit in Hawaii

I attended with high expectations, but contrary to my hopes, I wasn't that impressed. There are many more beautiful beaches on the East Coast, so I think it's better to look for those. The live music on the ship was very good.

期待して参加しましたが、期待に反しそれほど感動できませんでした。東海岸にはもっときれいなビーチがたくさんありますので、それを探していった方がいいと思います。船内の音楽演奏は、とても良かったです。

I just attended earlier. One word: you absolutely have to go. Even if you're not in the front row, you’re still close enough to the stage to feel the excitement! I hope they come to Japan too.

先程参加してきました。
一言。絶対行くべきです。
席は前でなくても十分ステージと近く迫力あります！
日本にも来て欲しいな。

It was the activity I was looking forward to the most, and I had a lot of fun, but the sea conditions weren't very good, and the boat was rocking a lot, which made me feel seasick. However, I was glad that I could see sharks properly and took a lot of videos.

1番楽しみにしてたアクティビティで、とても楽しかったのですが、海のコンディションがあまり良くなかったのか、船がすごく揺れて酔いました。
けど、サメもちゃんと見れてたくさん動画を撮れてよかったです

This time, it might have been a bit early in the season, but we persevered and managed to catch a glimpse of a whale swimming just at the last moment. We were able to see a honu and what I think was a flying fish, and the sea breeze felt wonderful! That's what my partner said.

I was feeling seasick and ended up lying down.

今回は少し時期が早いのか中々見られずでしたが、ギリギリまで粘って探してくださり少しだけクジラの泳ぐ姿を見れました。
ホヌやトビウオ？は見ることが出来ましたし、海風も気持ちよかったです♪
と、一緒に参加した相方が申してました。

私は船酔いでグロッキーとなり横たわっていました^^;

It was truly an amazing experience! The tour was led by a knowledgeable guide who explained everything in detail, allowing us to learn about Hawaii's nature and history. We also enjoyed driving off-road in buggies and navigating the hilly course at the playground. Getting covered in red dirt afterwards was also quite fun. Keola and Raymond were our guides! Keola was the main guide and only spoke English, so it might be tough if you can't understand English. However, Raymond speaks Japanese, so I look forward to future tours.

ほんとに最高な体験です！
ツアーは知識豊富なガイドが丁寧に説明してくれハワイの自然や歴史を学ぶことができます。またバギーでオフロードを気持ちよく走ったり、プレイグラウンドで起伏もあるコースを走ったりと楽しめました。
終わった後に全身が赤土まみれになるのもまた楽しかったかな。
ケオラとレイモンドにガイドを担当して貰いました！
ケオラがメインガイドで英語のみのため、英語のヒアリング出来ないと厳しいかもしれません。レイモンドが日本語できるので今後に期待します。

It was a beautiful day to head out to the sandbar. Glad we pick this excursion.

We got to see four dolphins and several turtles. Not to mention a large school of all kinds of fish.

The staff was very, very friendly. I want to go again! We highly recommend

The scenery was very nice, and the ride was comfortable. The driver's service was also good, making it a pleasant experience. The price was affordable, and the duration was short, so it was easy to participate.

景色も大変良く、走行も快適でした。ドライバーの対応も良く良い体験でした。
価格も安く時間も短いので気軽に参加できました。

I really wanted to see Michael's show, so I reserved a VIP seat. I was guided to the center seat in the third row from the front, and it truly became a wonderful time. Since it was the last day of my stay in Hawaii, I made the best memories. Also, at the buffet before the show, I shared a fun time with the person sitting next to me and made a new friend. With the fusion of hula and rock, it was truly American. The entertainment value was high, and it was very good.

マイケルさんのショーを是非観たいと思い、VIP席を予約。前から3列目センター席に案内して頂き、本当に素晴らしい時間となりました。ハワイ滞在最終日だったので、最高の思い出が出来ました。また、ショー前のビュッフェでは、隣の席になった方と楽しい時間を共有し、新たな友人が出来ました。フラとロックの融合ということで、流石アメリカ。エンターテイメント性が高く、とても良かったです。

The boat was well-organized and clean. Thanks to the presence of a dock, we were able to board without worrying about the waves.

We departed smoothly, cruised calmly, and returned to port without any issues.

The charm of the catamaran lies in being able to see up close how the vessel sits low in the water, powerfully facing the waves. With sails designed by Hilton, it bravely confronts the wind, making a strong sound as it flaps, all against the backdrop of a blue sky! This is what I thought a catamaran should be.

We departed smoothly, cruised calmly, and returned to port without any issues.

船は整理されていて綺麗な船でした。桟橋が有るため波を気にせずに乗船出来ました。
スムーズに出港し穏やかに快走しスムーズに帰港しました。
カタマランの魅力は船艇が低く波を被り力強く波に向って行く様子が間近に見れるのが最大の魅力てはないでしようか。
ヒルトンをデザインした帆で風に立ち向かい音を立て力強く羽撃くセールとその上蒼い空！これぞカタマランと思っていました。

スムーズに出港し穏やかに快走しスムーズに帰港しました

遊園地の観光船の様に

I wish the day we went the clouds was not covering the sun so the water was a little bit cold . The staff was awesome and activities was there to do but there was a jelly fish lingering so people got stung . Beside that it was a great adventure.

I was expecting to enjoy a photo show, but the meal was a buffet, and there were just three women dancing next to the table. I intended to look up at the stage from the audience, but it was completely different. "Rock a Hula" is a separate show. I felt disappointed, thinking, "What a letdown."

写真のショーを楽しめるものと期待してましたが、食事はバイキングで、テーブルの横で女性3人が踊るだけ。客席からステージを見上げる積もりだったのに、全然違いました。
「ロック　ア　フラ」というのは別のショー。なーんだ、という感じで、期待はずれでした。

I was a bit worried because I'm not great with heights, but from start to finish, there was no fear of heights, and I had an amazing time.

若干高いところが苦手なこともあり、心配していましたが、最初から終わりまで、高さの怖さはなくて、最高に楽しめました。

Two female crew members moved swiftly, raising the sails and stopping the engine for a refreshing sailing experience. Not only were their steering skills impressive, but their high level of entertainment and hospitality made the experience very enjoyable. When we got off the boat, it was around 6:30, just in time for dinner, so making a reservation at a restaurant near the Royal Hawaiian would allow you to avoid waiting. I recommend the American Chinese restaurant P.F. Chang's.

2人の女性クルーがテキパキと動き、帆をあげてエンジンを止めて爽快にセイリング。操舵の技術もさることながら、ホストを盛り上げてもてなすエンターテイメント性の高い接客技術にとても気持ちよく酔えました。船を降りると6時半でちょうど夕飯の時間なので、ロイヤルハワイアン周辺のレストランを予約しておけば待たずに入れます。アメリカのチャイニーズアメリカンレストランP.F.Changあたりがおすすめです。

I thought it might be tough since we had to gather early in the morning, but it turned out to be a great experience. On the day, we encountered dolphins and whales, and we were able to enjoy the subsequent activities as well. The staff, including AYA who spoke Japanese and INGRID who was great at hula, were kind and fun, which made it even better.

Since it's an activity involving nature, whether you see the animals depends on luck, but I recommend giving it a try.

早朝の集合時間だったので、きついかなぁと思っていましたが、それ以上に良い体験ができました。
当日はイルカとクジラに遭遇することができ、その後のアクティビティも楽しむことができました。
日本語スタッフのAYAさんやフラが上手なINGRIDさんなど親切で楽しいスタッフがガイドしてくれてとてもよかったです。

自然相手のアクティビティなので、動物と会えるかは運次第ですが、参加してみてはどうでしょう。

I applied for tickets for three people and completed the card payment, but when I arrived on the day, I was informed that only one ticket had been issued. It was quite chaotic at the venue. I had reserved three of the best seats and completed the payment, yet I struggled to enter because I didn't receive an email. There were others who had made reservations on the same site and were also denied entry for the same reason. In the end, after confirming the details of my card payment, I was finally able to enter, but it was quite frustrating. I wouldn't recommend making reservations through this site. I don't think it's acceptable to spend a lot of money and have a negative experience that wastes time.

3人分のチケットを申し込もしてカード払いも終えて当日現地に行くとチケットが1人分しか発券していない。との指摘を受けて現地でバタバタと。席も一番良き席を3席分予約をしてお支払いも完了しているのにメールが来ない理由で入場するのに手こずりました。同じサイトで予約をしている人もいて同じ内容で入場を断れていました。結果カード払いをした内容を確認してやっとの思いで入場できましたが参りました。このサイトからの予約はお勧めはしないかなぁ。高いお金を出して嫌な思いをして時間の無駄遣いには全く納得がいかないと思います。

I saw so many whales! 😆

The experience time was a bit long, so it might not be suitable for very small children. I stayed on the second floor the whole time, so it was hard to understand the one drink policy.

めちゃくちゃクジラ見れました😆

少し体験時間が長くて小さすぎる子は向いてないかもしれません。
2階にずっといたのでワンドリンクがわかりにくかったです。

We participated as a family of magic lovers (an elementary school student, a preschooler, and a father). The performers recognized that we were Japanese and incorporated some Japanese into the show, which the father enjoyed, but it seemed difficult for the children who didn't understand English. My elementary school son somewhat understood, while my preschool son was completely lost (laughs). It’s quite an expensive show, and it wasn't suitable for children who can't understand English. They were very happy with the magic kit as a souvenir.

マジック好きの親子（小学生、幼稚園児、父）で参加しました。
日本人と気づいて頂き、所々日本語を交えて下さり
父は楽しめましたが英語が分からない子供たちには難しかったようです。
小学生の息子はなんとなくわかった、と、幼稚園児の息子にはちんぷんかんぷん（苦笑）
かなり高価なショーですし、英語を理解できない子供には不向きでした。
お土産のマジックキットには大喜びでした。

If you don’t want to go over 5 mph and you just look at plants, you will be fine.
If you are looking to ride atv’s like they were made to ride, stay away!

The Captain, Holly and Alex were great! I would highly recommend this Snorkeling Trip.

The crew was super knowledgeable and gave some helpful recommendations for the rest of the trip. We saw at least 5 (!!) sea turtles and a whale

I have seen Cirque du Soleil before, but the fusion with Hawaii's beautiful culture was wonderful. It was well combined, and I had a great time. There was also laughter, and there were several scene transitions, making it a fulfilling 90 minutes!

シルクドソレイユは他にも見たことがありますが、ハワイの美しい文化との融合が素晴らしかったです。うまく掛け合わせてあり、とても楽しました。
また、笑いもあり、シーンの転換も何パターンかあり、充実の90分でした！

【Pickup】
They spoke entirely in English. Everyone around was laughing, but I could hardly understand... I kept my eyes closed.
【Reception】
It's all in English, but you can manage with a mobile translation app for check-in using an iPad. For the initial ID input, please enter the last 7 digits from the right of the Confirmation # on your voucher. At the reception, I think I was asked, "Don't you need a photo?" so I answered No. Therefore, there was no additional charge, but looking back, it might have been nice to have a photo. They handed me a paper with a printed QR code, and I went outside. There was a monitor displaying the order, and when my name was called, I received a brief explanation and put on the gear to wait.
【Experience】
I was paired with someone who could speak a little Japanese. They couldn't speak any English, but we managed. The moment we jumped was not scary at all, probably because the ground felt so far away. During the free fall, it was so much fun that I kept screaming. After the parachute opened, we descended slowly while enjoying the view of the streets of Hawaii.
I'm glad I experienced it.

【ピックアップ】　
英語オンリーで色々話してくれます。周りは笑っていましたが、ほぼ聞き取れず・・・目を閉じていました。
【受付】
英語オンリーですが、ipadを使ってチェックインするため携帯の翻訳で何とかなります。最初のID？を入力する欄は、バウチャーのConfirmation #: の一番右側7桁を入力してください。受付では、「写真は要らないの？」っと言われた気がしたのでNoと答えました。なので追加料金はかかっていませんが、今となっては、写真ありにしていてもよかったかもしれません。QRコードが印刷された紙を渡され外に出ます。順番が書かれたモニターがあり、名前を呼ばれたら簡単な説明と装備を装着して待機します。
【体験】
日本語を少し話せる方とバディーを組んでもらいました。まったく英語が話せませんが何とかなりました。飛ぶ瞬間は、地面が遠いからかまったく怖くありません。フリーフォール中は楽しすぎてずっと叫んでました。パラシュートを開いた後はハワイの街並みを見ながらゆっくり降りていきます。
体験してよかった

Its just shuttle service to Diamond head
Its a stone throw away from honolulu waikiki, and you coukd have just walk there.
Nothing more of a ferry services.

Staff charged me the memory card without asking if I ever need them.
I have no use for such huge memory stick; that was age old technology.

Overall, it was fun granted it was my virgin experience.
would I recommend my friends?
Probably no.

For my 60th birthday, I fulfilled my dream of planting a koa tree in my beloved Hawaii! I considered tours around the Big Island and the North Shore, but I'm glad I chose the familiar tour at Kualoa Ranch. The shuttle service from Waikiki was reassuring as well. To get to the planting site, we took a break for lunch and spent about two hours in the morning and afternoon exploring various viewpoints at Kualoa Ranch on a four-wheeler. We had the whole day to ourselves, and our guide, RED, provided the tour in English, so I made full use of my smartphone translation app, which made it a fun experience. There seemed to be several locations for planting, but we were taken to the Ka'a'awa Valley, overlooking the ocean towards Kaneohe and the vast mountain range, where we planted the koa saplings. I was even more moved to learn that Kualoa is a sacred land where ancient Hawaiian royalty lived. This tour became a lifelong memory for me. Thank you very much.

還暦記念に、大好きなハワイでコアウッドの苗を植樹したい！という夢を叶えてきました。ハワイ島やノースショアなどのツアーも考えましたが、なじみのあるクアロアランチのツアーにして良かったと思います。ワイキキからの送迎も安心ですしね。植樹の場所まで行くのに昼食をはさんで午前、午後と２時間ほど四輪バギーでクアロアランチのビュースポットをあちこち案内してくれました。一日中貸し切りで、ガイドのREDさんは英語で案内してくれるのでスマホの翻訳ソフトをフル活用して、それも楽しい時間でした。植樹の場所は何箇所かあるようでしたがカネオへの海や広大な山脈を望むカアアヴァ渓谷へ案内されコアの苗木を植えました。クアロアは古代ハワイの王族が暮らした神聖な土地と知りますます感激しました。このツアーは一生の思い出になりました。
ありがとうございました。

I wish they would give you a ruff idea on wait times. We spent most of the day to board the boat. And than had to rush through the Missouri. With the cost of the excursion we would have loved to not be rushed.

We were unable to hear the guide information and feel she was inexperienced keeping the group together. There was another group close by and listened to his knowledge.

Really good sailing weather and beautiful sunset with a crazy crew. We went with this company 10 years ago and we needed just one more sunset cruise before our sun permanently set😂

It had been about 10 years since my last visit to Hawaii, and once again, I relied on the trolley! It feels like there are a few fewer routes compared to before, but I thought it was essential to have access to various places. The starting point was also conveniently close to my hotel. I would like to use it again.

約10年ぶりのハワイでしたが
今回もトロリーにはお世話になりました！
以前に比べて少し本数が減った気もしますが、いろんなところに行けるのでないと困るなと思いました！始発場所もホテルから近くて便利でした。
また利用したいと思います。
